Emmerdale’s Celia Daniels star Jaye Griffiths may have just confirmed she will feature in the soap’s big crossover with Coronation Street next year, dubbed Corriedale
Another Emmerdale character may have been confirmed for the looming soap crossover with Coronation Street.
Weeks on from Danny Miller being confirmed to take part as his character Aaron Dingle, alongside Corrie’s Lisa Swain played by Vicky Myers, another star has declared “watch this space”. With no details yet confirmed about the big episode, it’s yet to be announced who exactly is involved and why.
But teasing what was ahead for villain Celia Daniels, actress Jaye Griffiths, who plays the character, hinted she would be involved. After recently confirming an exit would be on the way for her sinister character, she’s now teased she will pop up in Corriedale.
Asked about whether we may see her popping up in Weatherfield, Jaye dropped a massive hint that this could well happen. She shared: “Watch this space. She has fingers in many, many pies.”

She also addressed whether a comeuppance was on the cards for Celia, who is currently running a drugs operation in the village with the help of her ‘son’ Ray Walters. Only recently we learned the pair were also exploiting people including Bear Wolf in a sickening modern slavery plot.
But Jaye hopes that Celia can get away before she gets caught out, as she hinted she could end up doing the same thing somewhere else, like she did before her move to the village. Wanting her to “escape and flee”, Jaye shared: “Her comeuppance is she’s lonely.
“She has a penthouse you never see because she’s never in it, she’s too busy. What is her life? What does she enjoy? She has all this money in the bank and yet she does nothing.
“She doesn’t have any friends and she manipulates everyone she meets and it’s quite a lonely existence.” Explaining how Celia gets away with what she’s done every time, she added: “She just moves on, sets up somewhere else.”
Jaye also confessed Celia would never throw Ray under the bus, while she doesn’t completely trust him. She explained: “He’d have to be so disloyal to her that she simply cannot envisage it. So it might theoretically happen, but no.”
Spoilers for next week confirm that Celia finally finds out Bear is related to Paddy Kirk. Jaye said: “It is mildly infuriating that yet again, Ray has mucked up. Locals have families, locals are known, locals are missed so we don’t touch them with a 10 foot disinfected bargepole.”
When April Windsor ends up telling her dad Marlon Dingle about her ordeal too, Celia is forced to take action. Jaye teased: “What that means is she will have to explain to them in no uncertain terms what their new reality is.
“April would have brought this on her own family, it’s April’s doing. Celia warned her what would happen and now it will happen. Celia doesn’t do threats, empty or otherwise. She just states realities and consequences, and the consequence of this is now I own your family. They should be very scared.”
