As the new year of 2025 dawns in Emmerdale, it also marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Jacob Gallagher. After years of hard work and dedication, he is finally ready to embark on his dream career path - becoming a doctor. Jacob has spent countless hours studying at university, and now it is time for him to put all of his knowledge to the test as he starts his first placement in the A&E department.
In a recent interview, actor Joe-Warren Plant shared his thoughts on the upcoming standalone episode that follows Jacob's journey on his first day at the local hospital. He explained that Jacob is feeling a mix of emotions - nervous, yet proud of his new job. Before starting his shift, he takes a quick selfie to share with his friends and family, wanting them to be a part of this important moment in his life.
The first person Jacob meets at the hospital is Doctor Todd, who immediately gives off the vibe of being an experienced and dedicated doctor. She oversees the A&E department and takes her role of mentoring new trainees very seriously. Jacob can sense that she is strict but also understanding, and he knows that he is in good hands. As Doctor Todd explains the four-week placement, Jacob is eager to learn and take in as much knowledge as possible from the nurses and doctors around him.
While Emmerdale has aired special episodes before, this one feels especially different as it is entirely set in a hospital. Joe revealed that filming this episode was a daunting experience, especially on the first day when he arrived on set and saw the busy hospital sets and the bustling crew and cast. The use of a roaming steadicam and carefully planned shots added to the chaotic atmosphere, mirroring the real-life chaos of a busy A&E department.
Reflecting on his initial reaction when he was told about this episode, Joe shared that he felt a mix of emotions - excitement, pressure, and fear. He knew that this storyline would be challenging, but he was also honored and trusted to tell it. As he delved deeper into the role, he gained a newfound respect for the high-pressure job of doctors and was determined to do justice to the story.
