Emmerdale: Sally Dexter in Faith’s storyline
Earlier this year it was confirmed that Faith’s cancer would return and she would eventually die.
Over the last few months viewers have seen Faith come to terms with her diagnosis.
But as the cancer spread to her brain, Faith began to get confused.
Her children Cain and Chas have been trying to plan for Faith to go into a hospice, but it’s clear that’s not wants.
Knowing she would get worse, Faith made the decision that she would end her life so she could have some form of control.
The only person she told about her plan is her daughter-in-law, Moira.
This week, Faith wanted to have one final day out with her family at the beach.
But when Cain learnt she was too ill to go, the Dingles and Faith’s friends made a beach in the village for her.
Sally Dexter deserves ‘all the awards’ in emotional scenes, say fans
In last night’s episode (Wednesday, October 12) Faith was thrilled with the surprise and spent the day with her family.
However everyone had planned one more surprise for Faith.
Her good friend Diane flew back from Portugal to see her.
Towards the end of the episode, Cain asked his mother to dance with him.
They reminisced about the times they had danced together before.
Faith got emotional as she told her son that she loved him.
But soon the music cut out and Cain became emotional.
Later Rodney gave Faith a picture he had found of her with her loved ones.
Faith told Zak that nothing could top her day and that if she were to die tomorrow, she would die happy.
Fans have been left heartbroken by the storyline, but are praising Sally Dexter’s performance, saying she deserves all the awards.
