But the show’s fans will be able to indulge their love a little as actress Charlie Hardwick – who played the Geordie firecracker for 14 years – has agreed to do some special meet and greets.

She’ll be launching the Emmerdale Studio Experience over the festive season on November 18, in An Evening With.

Fans can meet her between 4pm and 7pm.

And there’s more…

Another former Dales star, Sheree Murphy – who played the dearly departed Tricia Dingle – will be hosting an evening on December 1.

She will be reminiscing about her six years on the show between 1998 and 2004.

Both characters met sticky ends.

Val met her maker after being hit by a shard of glass.

Previous evenings with former cast mates including Kelvin Fletcher, Bill Ward and Sammy Winward have proved a big draw for fans.

Tricia died after a chimney landed on her during a storm on New Year’s Day.
