'Emmerdale': Times Are A Changin'

Published Thursday, May 21 2009, 14:44 BST | By Kris Green | 8 comments

Yesterday, I popped up to Leeds for the day to see the guys and gals at Emmerdale and I have to say that when I walked out of the building, I had a new-found confidence in the show.

My time at the studios also coincided with my interview with new series producer Gavin Blyth (pictured) for DS's Producer Season 2009. The interview will be available to read from Friday, June 12 in the same week as my James Sutton interview to tie in with his first appearance as newbie Ryan Lamb.

I'll not go into the details as to what Gavin said or revealed at this stage, save to say that Emmerdale's one to watch over between now and the end of the year.

With the feel-good vibe emanating from Gavin's office, there's no wonder the cast and crew are excited about the show's reinvention - times are a definitely changin' at Emmerdale.

Check back in a few weeks' time to read the full interview. And check back on DS in the early hours of tomorrow morning for a much-anticipated Emmerdale announcement...
