ITV Emmerdale fans 'work out' which fan-favourite character will die in barn fire

Emmerdale: Harry gives Nate a chunk of cash

Emmerdale enthusiasts are predicting a grim fate for Nate Robinson in the upcoming barn fire at Moira Dingle's farm. Recently, Moira, portrayed by Natalie J.

Robb, has been dealing with health issues which escalate when a harmless interaction with Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter) is misinterpreted. In the coming week, Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) spots his wife Moira and son Nate in an ambiguous situation, leading him to believe they have shared a kiss.

He immediately seeks clarification but ends up resorting to violence against his son, sparking memories for Moira. Distressed by the unfolding events, she retaliates against Cain, causing him to leave.

Shortly after, Ruby Fox-Miligan (Beth Cordingly) arrives at the barn to taunt Moira, but quickly feels sympathy when Moira doesn't respond. As Moira begins to spill tractor fuel in the barn, Ruby's voice merges with that of Emma Barton, Moira's old adversary who she killed in 2017.

A distressed Moira then points her shotgun at a terrified Ruby. In her agitated state, Moira locks the barn, mistaking Emma for Ruby, reports the Manchester Evening News.

The situation escalates when Moira fires a warning shot into the air, scaring Ruby, as the shot hits a light bulb and sparks a fire. A struggle over the shotgun results in Moira knocking Ruby unconscious.

When Moira finally comes out of her daze, she is left bewildered.

The barn erupts into flames as Moira is paralysed with shock beside Ruby's lifeless form. From afar, Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) spots the smoke billowing from the barn and attempts to reach Moira.

Mack's urgent call alerts Cain, Caleb Milligan (William Ash), and Chas Dingle (Lucy Pargeter) to the blaze, prompting them to race towards the inferno. Arriving at the scene, Mack and John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth) exchange a tense glance before braving the flames together.

Despite his fury with Moira, Cain dashes towards the fiery barn, while a frantic Chas struggles to prevent him from risking his life.

As they find themselves trapped inside the blazing structure...suddenly, a massive explosion hurls everyone to the ground. The question on everyone's mind: will they escape this harrowing event unscathed?

Speculation is rife among Emmerdale viewers that Nate, who has been contemplating a fresh start in Scotland, might perish in the disaster. Fans have taken to Reddit to voice their theories, with one asking: "Is Nate going to die in the fire? who knows."

Another fan predicts a heroic but tragic end for Nate: "I think he'll get badly injured in the fire doing something heroic to save Moira / one of the kids. Then there'll be a final scene with Cain where they put everything right, and then he'll die. And it will make me."

A third supporter agrees, expressing hope that Nate and Cain's relationship doesn't conclude on a sour note: "Yeah, I think it'll go along those lines too. I just hope he and Cain don't end on bad terms."

Adding to the speculation, another chimed in: "He said something about an explosive ending but he could just be teasing".
