The limo crash story is underway in Emmerdale, with several characters at risk of not making it out alive.

Episodes this week saw Kerry win the use of a limo for the night. She chose to use it for a girls night out, while Liam rented his own limo for the boys.

The limos are involved in separate accidents, with one ending up on a frozen lake. It has been confirmed that not everyone will survive, but who do we hope lives to tell the tale?

Caleb Miligan

As the chauffeur of the boys’ limo, Caleb is one of the most at risk when the vehicle crashes. A flash-forward image also showed him lying in hospital, hooked up to various machines. So things aren’t looking good.

Caleb isn’t very popular at the moment, but killing him off would be a big mistake. He has a formidable partnership with wife Ruby, which we don’t want to see broken up. Ruby has been through enough recently, without adding her husband’s death to the list.

We also want to see how Cain and Caleb repair their relationship after the revelation that Cain slept with Ruby.

Emmerdale limo crash: Liam Cavanagh

With Liam’s plan to propose to Chas going wrong at every opportunity, is it a sign that it’s not meant to be? We sure hope not!

Liam Cavanagh isn’t perfect, but we’d miss his awkwardness if he were to perish in the limo crash. The scene where he asked for Aaron’s blessing to propose to Chas had us cringing and laughing in equal measure.

Chas also deserves a happy ending after being unlucky in love for so long.

Charity Dingle must not die in limo crash

Like with Caleb, Charity Dingle steps up as a driver so is at the front of the vehicle when it crashes. While we don’t think Emmerdale would kill off such an iconic character, anything is possible in soap land.

But Emmerdale wouldn’t be the same without Charity, from her feisty personality to her iconic putdowns. We couldn’t cope if Charity was no more.

She’s also involved in some storylines that need resolving, such as the drama between Noah and Joe.

Leyla Harding

Given that Roxy Shahidi is reportedly leaving the role of Leyla, it’s clear why she is the firm favourite to lose her life in the limo crash. There was also some foreshadowing when Leyla said, ‘I am getting in that limo if it kills me.’

However, we’d rather Leyla simply drive off into the sunset. She has always been one of our favourite characters and we’d hate to see it end like this. Especially after she mentioned how lonely she has been – wouldn’t it be a more fitting ending for her to meet someone and leave with him?

Also, her son Jacob works at the hospital. If he has to witness his mother’s death, it could break him.

Sam Dingle

This is a left-field one as we think it’s extremely unlikely that Sam will be killed off. But as he’s in the limo when it crashes, there is always a chance. Especially as a flash forward image shows Cain looking devastated while standing over a grave – it can only be someone close to him.

We don’t think it needs to be said why the loveable Sam needs to be saved. Sam is sacred and has managed to get through so much pain and heartbreak.

Our own hearts would break if Sam lost his life in the limo crash.
