Behind the scenes of the 'Emmerdale' explosion
Published Wednesday, Jul 12 2006, 02:03 BST | By Kris Green
Emmerdale's biggest storyline so far this year explodes onto our screens on Thursday night when a massive blast rips through the Kings' show house. The big question is... Just WHO perishes in the disaster? The five potential victims are Diane, Dawn, Jimmy, Noreen and Sadie.
As our exclusive behind-the-scenes pictures show, it's high-drama one minute, run-of-the-mill routine the next and even time to relax in the 'heat' of the moment.
The show house bursts into flames when an interior light is flicked on.
Eli and Scott rush to the aid of Marlon and Donna who were caught up in the blast.
Jack confronts the Kings as they survey the wreckage.
Julia Mallam - better known as Dawn Woods - smiles through her bloodied face while making a quick call on her mobile.
The camera crew capture the moment as rescuers bid to pull survivors from the wreckage.
Val looks on as fire crew stretcher-off her sister Diane to safety.
One of the Emmerdale make-up team tends to Verity Rushworth's (Donna Windsor-Dingle) 'injuries'.
Two more of the make-up team add the finishing touches to the 'wounded' Elizabeth Estensen (Diane Sugden).
... and finally, Mark Charnock (Marlon Dingle) and Joseph Gilgun (Eli Dingle) chill out with the 'paramedics' in the shadow of their ambulance.
