The Dingle All The Way Awards 2025! (Highs and lows of Emmerdale 2025)

In our most recent debrief on the recent Emmerdale plotlines, we mainly talk about how watching the same scenes of Ray-Celia-Marlon-Rhona-April is incredibly draining and we wish it was over. Honourable mentions go to Ruby and Caleb's horrible Christmas tree, and the mystery members of Claudette's prayer group. 

We'd love to hear from you at dinglealltheway.pod@gmail.com - send us your submissions for what you think will happen in Emmerdale next year, for us to share in our special episode to kick off 2026!

This is what purgatory feels like (Emmerdale 8th - 19th December 2025)

Lizzie and Simon discuss Kev's unusual sword-based kidnapping, the world's cringiest housewarming party, Celia's miserable reign of terror, and the welcome return of Lydia.

Kev's samurai sword (Emmerdale 24 November - 5 December 2025)

We chat to Alex Skerratt, a friend of Lizzie’s who not only writes the Sooty and Sweep show, but whose life has been intertwined with Emmerdale since the 80s! From growing up in real-life Hotten to living with an Emmerdale scriptwriter, Alex shares his Emmerdale memories, as well as behind-the-scenes insights into the writing process and how the show has changed over time.

Bonus ep: an interview with Alex Skerratt

After quickly debriefing the highlights of Simon’s 40th birthday party, we talk about the 3 recent special episodes of Emmerdale as well as expressing our frustrations at everyone gaslighting Eve, discussing why Ray and Celia’s horrible barn accommodation has better interior design choices than most other Emmerdale properties, and wondering which new young male character is secretly Kev’s son.

Bring back Liam’s authoritative beard (Emmerdale 3-14th November 2025)

We relucantly address the April/Dylan misery-fest, but not for long... cos we are swept away by our favourite new house share, which cast members we'd talk to, and the return of Lydia Watch!

April is having the cruellest month (Emmerdale 20-31 October 2025)

Cain is spiralling and, in many ways, so are we. As well as discussing the latest highs and lows (mainly lows) in Emmerdale Village, we also had the chance to interview Waseem Mirza, who appeared on the show this month, about his experience on the Emmerdale set!

From prison husband to vicarage husband (Emmerdale 29 September - 17 October 2025)- featuring special guest Waseem Mirza!

It's a crossover special babyyyy! Today, Simon and Lizzie are joined by the very funny Sunshine and Scooter from the Robron Podcast - to talk the history of Robron, our favourite and least favourite Robron moments, and what we hope for the future.

All things #Robron w/ The Robron Podcast!

In our most hectic and tangenty episode yet, we talk about the release of Bunker Boy, the latest Robron developments, and the time Lizzie walked past Ned Porteous in Leeds. Simon also has a complete inability to say the phrase ‘Hotten Bypass Crash’. This may be the first and last time we attempt to record an episode after 10.30pm.
