Emmerdale fans have been eagerly awaiting the fallout from the highly anticipated limo crash, which is set to leave multiple lives hanging in the balance.
With two separate limos involved in accidents—one plunging into a frozen lake and the other crashing in the woods—
viewers have been speculating about who will survive and who will meet a tragic end.
Now, actor Will Ash, who plays Caleb Miligan, may have unintentionally dropped a major hint about which limo ends up where and, in turn, who doesn’t make it out alive.
Caleb Takes the Wheel as Chaos Unfolds
The shocking events of the night begin with Caleb stepping in to drive the boys’ limo after Mackenzie Boyd refuses.
However, Caleb is still struggling with the devastating revelation about his wife Ruby Fox-Miligan’s affair with his brother, Cain Dingle. With emotions running high, disaster soon strikes as both limos set off for what should have been a night of celebration.
One limo crashes in the woods, while the other veers onto a frozen lake—leaving those inside in mortal danger. But which vehicle meets the icy fate?
Filming Secrets Reveal a Major Clue
In an exclusive behind-the-scenes reveal, Will Ash described the incredible lengths the Emmerdale production team went to in order to create the terrifying lake scene.
“This incredible icy lake was made out of wax. It was a cold frosty night, and you’ve got this huge limousine sunk into it. When you’re walking on the wax, it felt like ice, and you worried you were going to fall in,” Will explained.
He also shared details about the setup, revealing: “Everyone was walking so carefully. They had this huge crane because they had to lower the limo into this hole they had made because it wasn’t allowed to sit in the wax. It was pretty spectacular!”
Director Confirms Which Limo Ends Up in the Lake
Vicky Thomas, the director behind the dramatic episode, offered even more insight into how the intense scenes were filmed. She confirmed that three limousines were used—one for the girls, one for the boys, and a third for the lake crash.
“We had one for the girls, one for the boys, and then we had a spare one, which was the one that actually got put on the lake. That is the one that remains there throughout—we never drove that one anywhere because to make it all work, we had to take the engine out,” she explained.
Her description of the sinking process offers a chilling look at how the drama unfolds. “We had drilled holes in the bottom of the vehicle so that the water would fill it quickly to go down. For the first week on the ice, we filmed with it in a kind of nose-down position, and then the second week, it got attached to an enormous crane. The limo dangled from it like a puppet, floating just above the ice, and then bit by bit, it would eventually drop into this enormous pit that had been dug below.”
This confirms that the sinking limo was meticulously prepared and that the characters inside will face an intense battle for survival.
Who Will Die? Fans Speculate on the Fatalities
With the lake crash set to claim at least one life, fans have been theorizing about who won’t make it out. Clues from previous episodes have hinted at potential victims, and viewers have taken to social media to share their predictions.
One popular theory suggests that Dr. Liam Cavanagh may be one of the casualties. Having ended up in the girls’ limo, he was planning to propose to Chas Dingle, but his romantic gesture may now end in tragedy.
Another fan-favorite theory points to Suzy Merton as a likely victim. Her recent remarks about the night being “dead romantic” have been seen as possible foreshadowing of her demise.
Meanwhile, others believe that Mackenzie Boyd or Leyla Harding could be in danger. With reports suggesting that actress Roxy Shahidi, who plays Leyla, may be leaving the show, some viewers think her dramatic exit could be tied to the crash.
The Final Countdown: What Happens Next?
The episode’s director, Vicky Thomas, summed up the highly emotional storyline in just three words:
“Tense. Heart-wrenching. Life-affirming.”
With such high stakes, Emmerdale fans are bracing themselves for a devastating outcome. No matter who meets their fate in the icy waters, this will undoubtedly be one of the soap’s most unforgettable and emotional episodes.
The truth about who survives and who perishes will soon be revealed—but for now, the only certainty is that the village will never be the same again.
