Emmerdale spoilers have teased more than one village resident will face grave danger in upcoming episodes, with actress Isabel Hodgins spilling the beans
Emmerdale favourites Victoria Sugden and Wendy Posner find themselves in danger next week as the latter’s ex Russ holds them hostage – before a gunshot rings out.
Wendy’s abusive ex-husband Russ has terrified her in recent weeks as he turned up in the village with the goal of getting his late mother’s money – which she left to his grandson, Victoria’s baby son Harry.
Next week, Russ reveals that the reason he is on the run is that he gunned down a police officer in an armed robbery of a jewellery shop, terrifying Wendy.
But his attempts to get the money, and Wendy’s decision to tell Victoria the truth, end up in an armed siege at The Hide.

Now, speaking to The Mirror, Victoria actress Isabel Hodgins has teased death could be on the cards for one character as it seems someone may get shot.
Teasing it could mean an end to her time on the soap, Isabel revealed her character would be fearing for her life.
She said: “You hear a gunshot, there’s a mad man at large. They should fear the worst.”
Isabel added: “Victoria has got so much to live for and for that to possibly be taken away from her is awful.
“If it was one’s time [to leave] it would be bittersweet, because you’d be gutted to be leaving but also thinking this is so juicy and it’s going to be great.”
She called the scenes and what could happen next “terrifying and awful”, and revealed Victoria fears for her life, adding: “They should be very, very worried.”
Wendy actress Susan Cookson also had her say, revealing: “There’s that element of if it’s gonna go wrong, it’s gonna go really wrong and not just for him, but for us two as well.

“So it is a really scary situation and he is terrifying, and there’s no pleading to his better nature because he’s like a cornered animal, and at any point it feels like it’s a case of, if he’s’ gonna go down, he is taking us with him.”
It seems Victoria will live to tell the tale though, while Russ could be the least of her problems.
