Emmerdale: Liam Fox on Dan’s storyline
Speaking of his involvement in this huge and important storyline, Dan Spencer star Liam Fox firstly revealed: “This storyline is the best I’ve been a part of in all my time in Emmerdale. When it was first discussed with me, I just knew it was going to be something special. The producers have absolutely come up trumps with a story that really does mean something.
“So many of us have been in a situation where we could be put in the same position as Dan. Who wouldn’t want to protect their daughter from unwanted attention? Every day of the week somebody somewhere may strike out to hit someone not knowing what that punch could lead to.
“I just hope we’ve portrayed the story in a way that realistically shows the pain that can be felt on all sides,” he also added.
Emmerdale Producer Laura Shaw also spoke about the storyline. She said: “We want to show the stark reality and devastating impact one punch can have. In a moment of madness, Dan’s world will be turned upside down. His actions could cost him his freedom and more tragically could cost Lloyd his life.
“As the story unfolds, we’ll see Dan battle with the guilt of what he’s done and the impact this one violent act has on his family, friends and the wider community.”
