Emmerdale John showdown, Robron twist and Kev's true identity
Fans of Emmerdale have been predicting all kinds of chaos that could be on the way on the ITV soap. Given some of the twists and turns currently featuring in the village and the spoilers about what's ahead, some of it could well be on the cards.
Nothing has been revealed yet about what's ahead past the next couple of weeks. There has of course been teasers of twists on the way, including another flashforward still to air, weddings and a mystery storyline with Bear.
It comes as fans became convinced that Robert Sugden would be involved in the inevitable downfall of killer John Sugden. With Robert and ex Aaron Dingle, John's husband, clearing the air it's left fans hoping, praying, for a Robron reunion.
But this isn't the only thing people are hoping for, and it certainly isn't the only twist fans think could be on the way. We asked viewers what they thought may be in the pipeline on their favourite soap, and they did not disappoint with their theories.
One of the main hopes from fans was a Robron reconciliation, while plenty of fans believed this could be a catalyst for the downfall of killer John. It's known John will face a comeuppance at some point, that much is clear - while there are no details on how or when it will happen.
But with John's lies constantly unraveling and Robert hot on his heels, while currently claiming he plans to back off (we highly doubt that Robert), surely some day soon it's all going to come crashing down. When it does, fans think it will be Robert or even Aaron that brings him to justice.
Amid this, they think a reunion is likely. One fan posted: "Robron back together," as another added: "Robron reunion and hopefully a return for Seb." Some fans thought a reunion would not happen, for now, while another fan begged: "I defo just need Aaron and Robert back together before this year is over."
As for the downfall and his exit, fans think John will feature heavily with Aaron and Robert. One theory read: "Robert & Aaron can't help themselves & affair 2.0 commences. Big Bad John finds out. Kidnaps one of them, the other tries to rescue & he ends up with them both locked up. Convinces the stupid villagers they ran off together without saying goodbye & John still isn't caught yet."
And what if John accidentally exposes his crimes to Aaron, sending it all crashing down? One fan theorised: "Aaron hears Robert talking/pleading in his sleep on the laptop (John's hidden listening device) - Aaron not only understands Roberts struggle but the fact his current husband is spying on his ex husband!! The penny drops!!"
We also still don't know where on Earth the body of murdered Anthony Fox is, and only John, who buried it, knows. Some fans think he will use this against Aaron, while others think Anthony will show up alive and expose John.
A fan said: "Anthony is still alive potentially! Or if not then John will use it against Aaron, Ruby etc when things start to go sideways for him!" Fans certainly believe the crimes, Anthony's body, the stuff with Robert and even Mackenzie Boyd's unaired flashforward all tie together some how.
They also all believe that the confirmed big episodes in September will be when this plot either concludes, or takes a big turn. Others think October will be the moment John is rumbled and everything kicks off.
Theories of how it will end include a dramatic showdown, hostage situations, and plenty of danger. As we say, nothing at all has been confirmed by the soap with no plans shared, this is all purely speculation.
Plenty of fans are still convinced Mack's flashforward will involve new villain Ray, while this is thought to be airing around a big plot with Mack and Aaron. Another couple fans want back together are Vanity, AKA Charity Dingle and Vanessa Woodfield. Amid more scenes of them together recently and affair predictions swirling, one fan said: "Charity and Vanessa Reunion," as their theory for the year ahead.
Another agreed: "Vanity have an affair," as a third said: "Vanity getting back together again." A further fan confessed: "Obviously also hoping Charity and Vanessa find their way back to each other but honestly I think everyone is."
As far as romance twists are concerned , some viewers speculated a love triangle between Dylan, April and Arthur, while others are guessing Gabby and Vinny's wedding will end in "chaos" amid scenes involving the pair. Viewers also called for a romance for Mary, with one fan also hoping Eric would find someone... even naming Manpreet as that new flame!
Next up, the identity of newcomer Kev has been predicted too with fans sure he's one of two people. The first theory is that he will be confirmed as Lewis Barton's real dad, while another theory saw fans convinced he's linked to Robert's time in prison.
One fan said: "Chris Coghill's character is Lewis Barton's dad," as another viewer wrote: "The new villain that's coming in at some point being part of Robert's prison backstory (I hope I'm wrong about that)." Another post read: "Kev is Robert's Ex cellmate."

There's plenty more theories too, with fans questioning if Kim Tate and Joe Tate are about to turn against each other. Could Kim kick Joe out of Home Farm, amid another theory he will leave after his chaotic actions?
Fans are predicting some returns could be on the way too, with one character wanted back being Kathy Glover. Bernice Blackstock's return could lead to a bombshell according to one fan's theory.
As for newcomer Celia, fans want her to join forces with Kim Tate, while another theory was that she could be setting up Moira. Fans are just going to have to wait and see whether any of their hopes for the show come true, and what exactly will go down.

Emmerdale John's 'real plan' for Aaron and Robert as fans 'unearth revenge twist'
Emmerdale fans think there could be more to John Sugden's coincidental relationship with the ex-husband of his brother Robert Sugden amid his secrets under threat Could Emmerdale villain John Sugden have been faking his intentions for Aaron Dingle this entire time? Some fans can't shake the theory, and that John may have a twisted plan for both Aaron and Robert Sugden. John's brother Robert made it his mission recently to expose John for his dark crimes, while everyone in the village, including Aaron, have hailed him as the hero. But some fans have never been able to shake the fact that John ended up marrying the ex-husband of his long-lost sibling Robert. Robert and Aaron were married years earlier, and split after Robert went to prison and just months ago, Aaron married John. It comes as fans have tipped Robert to be the one to expose John and trigger his inevitable downfall. But amid another identity twist theory doing the rounds, some fans have gone back to square one. When John joined as a secret Sugden, the unknown son of Jack Sugden, back in September last year he sparked concern with fans. As the romance developed, before Robert returned to the show earlier this year, fans said alarm bells were ringing. For a Sugden no one had ever heard of to join the show, and to then embark on a romance with his brother's ex-husband, it did not sit right with fans. Immediately fans questioned if there was a hidden agenda and a fake identity, as means of targeting the Sugdens or even the Dingles. A theory was that John was using a fake name and was someone in prison wanting revenge on Robert. Fast-forward to Robert's return just in time for Aaron and John's wedding, and it seemed John was in fact a Sugden. Robert did not recognise him from prison so that was ruled out, but what if fans were on the right track, but just not quite there with what John's plan was? After all, it was Robert who asked their sister Victoria Sugden who John really was, telling him she knew nothing about him. Robert seemed to question his backstory and who he claimed to be, while since then that's stopped. What hasn't stopped is the theory that John is lying about who he is, and now fans are once again questioning his intentions. Some viewers "cannot rid" the idea that he might be targeting Aaron or Robert or both, as part of a mystery vendetta. Given the link they both share with Aaron, some fans have wondered if it was part of a plot to target Robert the entire time. Some fans believe John or not, there is more to his feud with Robert and his decision to keep targeting him, and that it isn't simply down to jealousy.

Another fan said: "I still can't rid the feeling that John is only with Aaron as a means of targeting him or the Sugdens, I dunno, I keep thinking some secret revenge is gonna be revealed." One fan had previously said: "I still don't like or trust John. Don't believe he's John Sugden. Don't believe he loves Aaron, I think he's manipulating Aaron and the others." Another wrote: "I wish my theory about John being Robert's cellmate and seeking revenge against him through Aaron had been true."

I'm A Celebrity bosses 'plan to extend show for another FIVE years as they make bid to film in jungle until 2030'
ITV are planning for another five years of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! and are reportedly in talks to film in the jungle until 2030. Bosses are said to be in negotiations with Australian authorities about securing the area of the jungle where the show is filmed. All going well, another five years would take the long-running ITV show up to its landmark 30th season. A source told The Sun: 'The production team are planning five years in advance, which is a long-term approach they haven't adapted before. 'But this is not a done deal with the local authorities and the negotiations have just started to secure the sight. 'They're not taking anything for granted but are hopeful all parties involved will be able to come to some kind of agreement.' Previously, only thee-year deals have been struck to secure the site in Murwillumbah - where I'm A Celebrity is filmed. If the show hopes to remain there until 2030, they will need the blessing of the local Tweed Shire Council. A spokesperson for the council confirmed ITV will need to seek permission to film on the site again and they don't give 'open-ended filming permissions to anyone'. The Daily Mail has contacted ITV for comment. Jimmy Bullard is reportedly the latest famous face set to take part in the upcoming All Stars version of the series. The 46-year-old former footballer is said to be returning to the jungle alongside a number of other former I'm A Celebrity contestants from previous years. The ex-Soccer AM host will be hoping to do better than his original stint in 2014, when he was the first campmate to be voted off. A source told The Sun on Sunday: 'Jimmy had a brilliant time in the original series he took part in and it really opened the door to his broadcasting career. 'He was voted off first last time and he felt he had a lot more to give. Now he's got the chance to get stuck in again, although he's a bit older so he is worried he might find it harder to rough it. 'His banter is still on top form though. Producers are hopeful he'll have a bromance with Harry Redknapp, who is also taking part.' As well as Jimmy and 2018 King of the Jungle Harry Redknapp, The Only Way Is Essex star Gemma Collins - who lasted only three days in the jungle when she took part in the 2014 edition of the programme - and 2016's third-placed Adam Thomas are also set to take part. Adam memorably took part in a record 12 Bushtucker Trials during his time in the Australian jungle and returned to present the companion series I'm A Celebrity: Extra Camp with Joel Dommett and Emily Atack in 2019. A source told The Sun: 'This will be a glorious return for Adam as he established himself as a true fan favourite through his series in camp and then on the spin-off show. 'He's stayed in the limelight, too, with Waterloo Road and then on ITV alongside brother Ryan with challenge show 99 To Beat. 'It's the perfect time for him to head back into the jungle and affirm his position as Mr Bushtucker Trial.' Also rumoured to be taking part in this year's All Star's series is Gogglebox star Scarlett Moffatt, who won I'm A Celeb in 2016. She is reportedly keen to take part now that she is a mum to show her young son how brave she can be. Ant and Dec's return as hosts was confirmed in February, with filming due to take place in South Africa later this year. Unlike in the main series, participants are not battling to become king or queen of the jungle, but instead they will simply be crowned 'Legend'. The first legends series aired in 2023 and saw the returns of former campmates Myleene Klass, Helen Flanagan and Jordan Banjo. A source said: 'That was one of the biggest entertainment shows of the year averaging 5.2million views across its consecutive weeknight run. 'We're very excited about bringing back campmates from over the years in a brand-new setting in South Africa.'
