Some particularly emotional scenes are due to take place in Emmerdale for Dan Spencer (Liam Fox) as his recent dramatic storyline finally comes to a close.
Since punching creepy stalker Lloyd (Matt Sutton), things have only gone from bad to worse for Dan.
After Lloyd spent time harassing Dan’s daughter Amelia (Daisy Campbell), Dan eventually snapped and lashed out, with the unintended consequences proving devastating for everyone involved.
Lloyd spent weeks in a coma but eventually succumbed to his injuries, and Dan was charged with GBH and manslaughter for his killing.
Actor Liam Fox has spoken about the quality of the writing of his upcoming scenes, saying: ‘When I read the script it was like, wow this is awesome’
So, will Dan be going to prison for what he has done?

Liam Fox tells us, ‘He’s kind of taking it all in and realising that he’s going, and getting support from other people in the village.’
‘There’s some lovely stuff before he goes. He goes into the Woolpack and Man Club are there and really supporting him.
‘Really, really well written, really nice stuff. It made me cry a few times reading it. Very emotional, lovely stuff. I feel very, very lucky to get that sort of script around this story.’
Though Dan is dreading being sent to jail, there may still be a glimmer of hope regarding how long Dan will be put away.
When he gets to court, his solicitor reassures him that he should only receive a short sentence.
Liam tells us, ‘He’s presuming he’s going to get about 3 years or something like that, so he’s got it in his head that after 18 months he might be out, but can he cope with 18 months?’
‘Is that something that Dan can get his head round? Whatever Dan does, when he comes out – if he comes out – he’s going to be a different man. Someone like Dan will not benefit from prison.’
What does prison have in store for Dan, and how long will he be in for? Only time will tell.
