Fans of Emmerdale have predicted a major character may soon die following some odd behaviour.

During the latest episode of the show, Eric was extremely angry over Jai and Caleb's new business as lorries went up and down his road. However, he soon attempted to call the doctors for an unclear reason, but became very agitated and upset when it went through to an automated process.

As a result, he visited the doctor's himself and asked Ella at the reception for an appointment. When she asked some routine questions, he once again became very upset and had to be escorted out by Wendy after shouting at Ella and threatening her.

He later asked others to take part in his protests against the new business, but became angry that no one wanted to join him. He even insulted both Jai and Caleb, with Caleb grabbing his arm and threatening him back.

@JeanieThePixie said: "Please don’t kill off Eric (known simply as “Pollard” in #classicemmerdale). He’s like an old pair of slippers. I also think they could do more with the #Parkinsons in forthcoming storylines".
