Fans work out major Emmerdale legend facing death in horror Corriedale collision
Coronation Street and Emmerdale fans have been left fearing for the life of a major fan-favourite character in the wake of an update about what Corriedale will entail.
A trailer for the explosive and long-awaited crossover between ITV’s flagship soaps dropped on Monday (December 1), with new spoilers and photos confirming a devastating tragedy will occur.
A multi-vehicle pile up will occur on a stormy country road near Hotten as the two soapy worlds collide, while desperate residents of Weatherfield and Emmerdale can be heard calling for help as the emergency services arrive.
Soap bosses promising that the aftermath of the crash will ‘give rise to fear, murderous intent, death, destruction, closely-guarded secrets, and lies.’
Numerous pictures were released of the chaos to come, with one showing a silhouette of a man amid the surrounding carnage – and it didn’t take long for fans to start speculating who it might be, with one name in particular coming up.
Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley)!
‘I’m sure my mind plays tricks on me but this looks like Robert,’ wrote Susie on X, formerly known as Twitter. Stacie agreed, writing: ‘I mean that’s his outline right!? The side profile, the hairline??’.
Metro reader Suzanne said: ‘Looks like Robert,’ while Mili echoed such a sentiment, also speculating that it’s fan-favourite Rob too.
Charlotte, meanwhile, added: ‘My deluded brain has convinced me this is Robert!!’
