for Mandy in Emmerdale!
Emmerdale star Lisa Riley has teased an emotional and dramatic storyline for her character, Mandy Dingle, that promises to captivate fans. During an exclusive chat with Digital Spy at an Inside Soap Awards photo shoot, Lisa dropped some intriguing hints about upcoming events in the village.
This week, Mandy Dingle is taking center stage as she prepares to marry her fiancé, Paddy, in a special hour-long episode airing on August 15. While the wedding is highly anticipated, there’s an undercurrent of tension as viewers are left wondering whether Paddy will still go through with the nuptials after discovering Mandy’s secret side job as a financial dominatrix. The show’s creators are keeping tight-lipped about how this revelation will impact the wedding, adding an element of suspense to Mandy’s fairytale dream.
Lisa Riley, who was at the photo shoot for the Inside Soap Awards, shared that the wedding scenes are brimming with creativity and excitement. She hinted that Mandy’s hopes for a perfect wedding might be challenged, but she remains optimistic. “Mandy wants her fairy tale ending,” Lisa said. “We’re hoping it all goes according to plan and that Paddy will be just as happy as she is.” However, Lisa also teased that Mandy might have some surprises in store, suggesting that there’s more to come beyond the wedding.
Looking ahead, Lisa revealed that the storyline surrounding Zack Dingle’s funeral will bring a significant twist for Mandy. Zack’s passing, which will be a poignant tribute to the late actor Steve Halliwell, who portrayed him since 1994, will set the stage for a major development in Mandy’s storyline. “We’ve got a heartfelt tribute to Steve Halliwell that will lead us up to Christmas,” Lisa explained. “After that, there’s a storyline for Mandy that is going to be a real game-changer. I can’t say much more, but it’s going to shock the viewers.”
Lisa’s comments have left fans speculating about what could be next for Mandy. With the funeral storyline poised to bring about significant changes, it’s clear that Mandy’s life in Emmerdale will take some unexpected turns. As the drama unfolds, Lisa Riley’s performance is expected to be a highlight, especially as she is nominated for Best Comic Performance at the Inside Soap Awards.
Reflecting on the nominations, Lisa expressed her gratitude and enthusiasm. “It’s amazing to be nominated,” she said. “The awards voted for by the public mean the most. The writing for Mandy has been incredible, and working with Dominic Brunt, who plays Paddy, has been a joy. We have such a strong bond, and it’s wonderful to bring that chemistry to the screen.”
Lisa also praised the Emmerdale team, emphasizing the collaborative spirit on set. “The scripts are fantastic, and the cast is great. It’s not just a cliché—everyone gets along well and has fun on set. That positive energy definitely comes through in the show.”
As fans eagerly await the upcoming episodes, Lisa Riley’s insights suggest that Emmerdale is set to deliver some powerful and surprising moments. With Mandy’s wedding on the horizon and the emotional tribute to Zack Dingle, it’s clear that there are many twists and turns ahead for the beloved character and the village.
