Next week’s Emmerdale looks set to be one of the most memorable in the history of the soap with a birth, a death and an arrest for murder – all in the space of a few days.
Pregnant Rebecca White has been threatening to go into labour for ages but it looks like the time has finally come when her waters break – in a typically soap situation.

Victoria Barton convinces a very reluctant Aaron Dingle to take a look at Rebecca’s car for her. Fans know that Bex is carrying Aaron’s former boyfriend’s baby and he blames her for losing Robert.
Adam takes the car out for a test run with Rebecca, but he’s shocked when they break down in the middle of nowhere and her waters break.
We imagine Rebecca is less than happy about being stuck out in the wilderness and going into labour, with only the person who hates her and resents the baby, on hand to help.
Will Rebecca and the baby (and Aaron for that matter) all make it through unscathed?
Meanwhile, things aren’t looking great for Adam Barton who has to convince the police that Emma Barton was never in his car, despite her confession letter being found in it.
The police aren’t having it though and arrest him for Emma’s murder, while Adam begins to suspect that Ross planted the letter and is trying to frame him.
Later in the week, Ross attempts to do a runner from the village and Adam gets the police to go after him. Ross has a flashback which reveals a big clue in the murder mystery.
Are we about to find out who really did kill Emma?
Also, Bernice is left stunned when her client, Mrs Dumphreys, dies in front of her – just after winning big on the horses.
As the paramedics come and take the dead body away, Nicola King finds the betting slip which reveals just how much money the pensioner had won. We’re sure Alanis Morrisette would have something to say about that.
Nicola then tries to convince Bernice to cash in the slip. But will she?
Elsewhere it looks like the Dingles could be made homeless when Eric Pollard gives a councillor a bribe to stop plans for a new road threatening his home, but puts their’s in the line of fire instead.
Eric tries to revert back to the original plan when he discovers this, but it looks likes it’s too late. Will Emmerdale’s most famous family lose their home?
