EMMERDALE spoilers reveal the extreme lengths taken by Charity Dingle to help granddaughter Sarah Sugden.
Sarah – played by Katie Hill – has already been under considerable stress during her young life.
In scenes yet to air, her grandmother Charity (Emma Atkins) wants to give Sarah a taste of life without her illnesses.
She treats her granddaughter to a proper Dingle experience – a joy ride in a seemingly stolen flash car.
In recent years, Sarah has been facing heart problems which stemmed from her original diagnosis.
After undergoing chemotherapy for leukaemia, she later collapsed with heart failure.
With the youngster needing a transplant, the heart initially found was later deemed to be unfit.
Sarah originally refused a transplant when offered to her, but she ultimately agreed and it proved successful in the end.
The character’s complicated medical history began all the way back in 2011.
This saw Sarah diagnosed with Fanconi anaemia, a rare genetic disease which developed into leukaemia.
Needing a bone marrow transplant, this became possible following the birth of her younger brother Jack (Seth Ball).
As a member of the Dingle family, Sarah is connected to some of the village’s biggest rogues.
In October 2018, her mother Debbie was arrested for arranging the acid attack which scarred Ross Barton – but was later found not guilty.
Previously, Debbie had been wrongly jailed for the murder of PC Shane Doyle, who was actually killed by Jasmine Thomas.
Another storyline saw Sarah’s grandfather Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) charged with killing Al Chapman (Michael Wildman).
It was actually Cain’s son Kyle Winchester (Huey Quinn) who’d committed the deed.
Emmerdale legend Charity, meanwhile, shot dangerous criminal Harry while helping her beau Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) escape.
Harry aka Damon Harris (Robert Beck) kidnapped and held Mackenzie hostage to make him pay for his poor treatment of his daughter, Chloe Harris.
Unfortunately for Harry, his plan backfired on him as Charity was able to kill him to save Mackenzie.
Emmerdale airs on ITV1 and is available to watch on ITVX.
