Brenda Walker Emmerdale Eric Pollard Share By Kerry Barrett 3rd December 2024 By Kerry Barrett 3rd December 2024 Eric Pollard has lost everything in Emmerdale – all his money, all of Brenda Walker‘s money, and now it looks like he’s about to lose Brenda, too. But is it really over for the cute couple? Is their Christmas wedding definitely off? It’s definitely not looking good. Here’s everything we know. Will Brenda and Eric get a happy ending? (Credit: ITV) Brenda and Eric’s wedding is on in Emmerdale Eric was baffled when the increase in his investment wasn’t showing on his cryptocurrency account. He tried to speak to his finance advisor about it but got cut off – and that’s when Eric started to worry. Elsewhere, Brenda had found the perfect wedding dress, but when she went to pay her card was declined. Eric told her it was a technical problem at the bank and fibbed that he’d spoken to someone about it. article continues below Read all the latest spoilers But of course he was lying – he’d invested everything he had, and everything Brenda had, too, in the cryptocurrency scam. In desperation he turned to the racing pages of the newspaper, hoping to win back the money he’d lost, when he was interrupted by Liam who clocked him taking cash from the till. Worried Liam warned him that a rare side effect of his new medication was that it could make him act recklessly. Backed into a corner, Eric confessed that he’d lost the cash, and had secured a loan on his house. Liam begged him to come off the medication, but Pollard insisted he was going to the bookies and threatened to call the police! Liam warned Eric that his reckless behaviour was to do with his medication (Credit: ITV) The wedding’s off! Back home, Eric returned triumphant with Brenda’s wedding dress all bought and paid for. But it turned out Liam had spoken to Brenda and explained what her husband was up to. And she’d had a chat with the bank and found out the truth about what had happened to her savings. A clearly devastated Brenda asked her fiancé what he was thinking, blowing her life savings. Eric tried to get round her by showing her his winnings because his horse had come in. But Brenda wasn’t listening. She told Eric his betrayal was so deep, she couldn’t get over it! Brenda was upset about Eric’s actions (Credit: ITV) The wedding’s off but the couple are on! Except she did! By today’s episode, Brenda was telling Eric that they were in it together. Though Eric was still convinced his money troubles were all just a big misunderstanding. But later, a shocked and upset Eric told Brenda and Jacob that the number for his account manager was no longer in service and finally accepted he’d been scammed. And Brenda revealed that she’d already called the police who’d said there was nothing they could do. Brenda had a chat with Liam, who told her he was convinced it was all a side effect of Pollard’s medication. But it’s too late now. “He’s ruined us,” she said. “Financially we’re sunk.” But Liam assured her what Eric needed was her love and support. It looked bleak, though, when Brenda asked him what she needed. And when she saw Eric in the street, she pointed out that he owned the house and everything she’d worked for was gone. Jacob suggested to his horrified grandfather that the only way to pay back Brenda’s money was to sell the shop. So that’s exactly what he promised to do. Jacob told Eric he needs to sell the shop (Credit: ITV) Brenda and Eric are off! But Brenda had something else on her mind. She’d realised Eric was on his new meds when he proposed and she wanted to know if he meant it. He admitted that he’d never intended to marry again, devastating poor Brenda, who assumed all the lovely things he’d said when he proposed were lies. Later though, Eric told her he meant every word. He told her he didn’t mind if they got married or not, but said he didn’t know what he would do if Brenda ever left him. Will Brenda forgive Eric? Brenda and Eric are on in Emmerdale – or are they?! But then – hooray – Brenda assured him she wasn’t going anywhere. And this makes us nervous! Because it’s been reported that actress Lesley Dunlop, who plays Brenda, is leaving her role after 16 years as Ms Walker. So does this mean the wedding’s off or on? We’re really not sure now!
