Emmerdale is making preparations for the death of one of its biggest characters - with Zak Dingle being laid to rest in the soap in an emotional funeral.The heartbreaking move is necessary because Steve Halliwell, who played him, died himself last year and soap bosses considered it would be a fitting tribute to the actor if Zak was given a send-off too.
Zak, who last appeared on Emmerdale last summer before Steve took a break owing to his bad health, was referenced on air during last night's episode.
Cain Dingle, played by Jeff Hordley, announced that he was leaving the village to visit his uncle in Scotland, after receiving a concerning phone call from his daughter Debbie, who lives with Zak.
