‘She asks the court to wait until they get there because she believes that they will, especially Manpreet.
Jamie returns as he is warned his death secret will be exposed in Emmerdale?
Millie is attending Thomas' christening, meaning she could reveal the truth about Jamie to Kim and Gabby.This week, Kim (Claire King) and Gabby (Rosie Bentham) have clashed over the upcoming christening.
‘But also she’s really delusional. She’s going into that sentencing thinking that after everything that she’s done, even taking hold of the court and adding more crimes to her long list, she still thinks that she’s going to get away with everything and only get sent down for a couple of years.
‘That’s the number she has in her head and then that doesn’t happen. She completely loses it.’
We can’t reveal how long Meena is sent down for, so you’ll just have to tune in to find out her ultimate fate. However, here Paige tells all about performing the dramatic court siege that took place after the verdict.
‘There’s this flamboyancy and charm that she has and she enjoys the spectacle. So it was really fun to play. Lots of great Meena one-liners, so it was fun.’
With the impact Meena has made as soapland’s most animated villain, it’s hard to believe we won’t be seeing her on our screens again. But alas, it’s almost time for her to depart Emmerdale.
With the promise of one last tantrum on the horizon, though, make sure you don’t miss Meena’s swan-song.

Meena puts on an unforgettable performance at her trial in Emmerdale .
She’s determined to be the director, producer and star of her very own show. When she’s first brought up into the dock, she seems docile, meek and even vulnerable. The jury are taken in by it but people who know her realise that it’s just an act. It doesn’t stop Liam (Jonny McPherson) getting upset by it, though – especially when Meena’s counsel accuses Liam of having an affair with her. He reacts in exactly the way Meena hopes he will – by lashing out. His outburst risks losing the sympathy of the jury.
