Exclusive: John Middleton on the Emmerdale car crash and Ashley Thomas' Alzheimer's
JOHN MIDDLETON ON EMMERDALE'S MOST DRAMATIC WEEK EVER
Emmerdale - officially the best British soap - and most dramatic scene ever aired in a multiple car crash which will see much-loved characters dead and injured!
'Basically I'm saying Emmerdale is seven times better than Star Wars,' John says. 'This is definitely the biggest week I've been involved in - it's massive, there are so many different incidents. It's about the most cinematic thing you'll ever have seen in soap.'

John's first role on Emmerdale was actually playing PC John Jarvis at the time of the Post Office raid in 1994.
He got his dog collar and landed the role of Vicar Ashley Thomas in December 1996.
Before stepping a foot in the dales, John walked down the cobbles - twice! In 1993, he appeared in Coronation Street as John Hargreaves, the man who killed Lisa Duckworth in an accident. A year later John played a hospital consultant in Corrie too.
