Jason Donovan makes Lydia's dream come true in Emmerdale

And later, Kim is left fighting for her life.

 6-12 DECEMBER

After standing up to Joe, Sam quits his job, but with mounting bills, Lydia urges him to get his job back.

Joe initially refuses, but Kim intervenes, and Lydia reevaluates her loyalty to Kim due to her stingy raffle donation and Joe's treatment of Sam.

Behind Kim's back, Sam plans a dodgy shoot on Home Farm land for cash, and Lydia agrees to help by distracting Kim at the Christmas Fayre, unaware of Kim's surprise for her.

It’s an uphill struggle for Lydia, Claudette and Nicola as they attempt to sell tickets to the Christmas Fayre.

At the shoot, Lydia faces pressure to keep it secret while Kim demands her presence at the Fayre, and Oliver's shooting party demands food. And Sam worries that Vanessa has seen the shoot.

Claudette, Lydia, Nicola and Jimmy are hopeful that the Christmas Fayre will come together in time, although no-one except Bob’s looking forward to his performance.

Kim orders Lydia to the pub, where Lydia's dreams come true with a Jason Donovan concert. Jason’s touched to receive a Woolpack welcome from the villagers.

After hearing from Vanessa, Kim investigates the dodgy shoot and is later found grievously injured in the woods. Unable to move her leg, helpless Kim waits for someone to find her or for death to claim her.
