Appearing on This Morning on Tuesday (28 August), Matthew let slip that the bombshell will drop in around a month’s time – so towards the end of September.

Talking to Eamonn and Ruth, he revealed: “That [Sarah Sugden] storyline has a twist to it and it’s going to be absolutely brilliant. It’s coming up in three or four weeks. A big twist.”

Matthew, who plays David Metcalfe, managed to whip fans into a frenzy, with all sorts of conspiracy theories being speculated upon!

Meanwhile, Matthew’s real life wife Charley Webb – who plays heartbroken mum Debbie Dingle – recently gave fans a huge clue that Sarah’s heart failure story is far from over as she revealed she was set to shoot “more emotional scenes”.

The storyline will come after what’s set to be an explosive couple of weeks as serial killer Lachlan White is revealed to be a murderer to horrified Emmerdale residents.

In fact, one fan theory is that Sarah receives a heart transplant from one of Lachlan’s victims… Or even Lachlan himself!

Would you really want Lachlan’s black heart inside of you, though?

The twist in Sarah’s health scare follows emotional scenes recently when she was told she was unable to have a heart transplant at the last minute.

Fans praised the actors for the heartbreaking scenes, which saw both Sarah and mum Debbie break down in tears.

Will there be a happy ending for the Dingle family at last? Or is more heartbreak ahead?

On This Morning, Matthew also shared that “Joe asks for Sarah’s blessing as he has big plans concerning his relationship with her mother Debbie.

“I think we can all see what he’s going to ask her can’t we?”

We’re off to buy a hat!
