'Emmerdale' star Liam Fox is bowing out of the soap after 12 years and is set for a "very sad" and "emotional" ending.
Dan Spencer is bidding farewell to the village
His longtime character on the ITV soap, Dan Spencer, is facing years behind bars for manslaughter after Lloyd Sawyer's death.
He punched him for stalking his daughter Amelia Spencer.
But he hit so hard, it left Lloyd fighting for his life in a coma for weeks before he died from his injuries.
Speaking about his final scenes, Liam told OK! magazine and other members of the media: "When I read the scripts, it was like: 'Wow, this is awesome.'
"He's kind of taking it all in and realising that he's going and getting support from other people in the village. There's some lovely stuff.
"I feel very lucky to get that sort of script around the story."
He went on to praise the writers and admitted he burst into tears reading the script.
Liam said: "Before he goes, he goes into the Woolpack and Man Club are there and really supporting him.
"It's really well written, really nice stuff. It made me cry a few times reading it, so yeah, very emotional, lovely stuff.
"I feel very lucky to get that sort of script around the story."
Dan and Amelia were going to flee for Ireland, but decided against it, with Dan not only leaving his daughter behind but his young grandchild Esther Spencer.
Liam said that even if he does eventually get out of prison, Dan will never be the same.
He added: "He's scared about how long he's going to get.
"I think he's presuming he's going to get three years or something like that.
"He's got it in his head, you know, after 18 months, he might be out and everything.
"But even so, can he cope with 18 months? Is that something Dan can get his head around?
"Whatever Dan does, when he comes out, if he comes out, he's going to be a different man. Somebody like Dan will not benefit from prison."
