Once again, Eric finds himself in a dangerous situation. It's been a year since the beloved character from Emmerdale, Eric Pollard, was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. The show's producer, Laura Shaw, had mentioned that they have the unique opportunity to authentically tell this story over a long period of time. They can shed light on what a diagnosis like this means and follow Pollard on his journey of learning to live with it. As a result, Eric's diagnosis has been a major focus of the storylines as he comes to terms with his condition and allows Brenda Walker to support him, despite initially pushing her away.
To accurately portray Eric's situation, Parkinson's has become just one part of who he is. He continues to play out other storylines while dealing with the disease. However, in the upcoming episodes, it seems that the condition is taking a toll on him and putting him in serious danger.
In the next episode, Pollard faces a stressful situation when he becomes frustrated with the increased traffic around Caleb Miligan's warehouse. The noise is disturbing his peace and quiet, and he confronts Caleb about the problem. However, Caleb dismisses his complaints, leaving Eric angry and determined to take matters into his own hands. Without taking his medication, he gets behind the wheel of one of Caleb's lorries and ends up crashing into a stack of crates.
This incident comes as a shock to Eric, leaving him shaking and upset. When Caleb comes to the shop to warn him about interfering in his business, Eric struggles to maintain his composure. The following day, Caleb spots Eric in the village and realizes that he's not feeling well. He offers him a ride, but Eric's first instinct is to refuse due to his stubbornness. However, he soon realizes that he needs help and has to put his pride aside and accept Caleb's offer.
