Emmerdale Teases 'Staggering' Twist in Nov. 4 Marlon–April Standalone

Mark Charnock says the special ushers in thriller-style arcs that intensify April's entanglement with Ray and Celia.

Overview

  • The first of this autumn’s standalone episodes airs Tuesday, November 4, centering on Marlon Dingle and his daughter April Windsor.
  • Charnock promises a twist that will "stagger" viewers and says most of the episode was filmed over two days in a single location.
  • Recent episodes place April under pressure from Ray and Celia over debts and drug deals, with Ray attempting to coerce her into sleeping with clients as Marlon grows increasingly concerned.
  • Charnock cautions that events will get worse before they improve and says the storyline will impact many villagers, highlighting work by Tony Audenshaw and Charlotte Bellamy.
  • He adds that upcoming blocks through November, December and January adopt a thriller tone, and Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7:30pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
