Emmerdale fans have shared their concern for Mandy Dingle after Lisa Riley shared a filming update.
Taking to Instagram this week, Lisa shared a photo of herself on set with a Mandy stunt double, captioning it: "As if one Mandy Dingle was not enough this morning filming at the village at @emmerdale… you get TWO.
"THANK YOU to my lovely body double Angela, absolute sweetheart. Next time you get Mandy’s Cowboy Boots also. Just another day at work!!!!"
Fans were quick to share their concern in the post's comments section, believing the presence of a stunt double means they could be filming some dangerous scenes involving Mandy.
"Not good if there's a stuntwoman, it means Mandy is in trouble," wrote one fan, while another said: "OMG Mandy has a stunt double."

"Hope this doesn’t mean Mandy’s in danger at some point? Can’t have anything happening to her," wrote a third.
It comes after Lisa said the soap's cast all feel uncertain about their job security, following the announcement that both Emmerdale and Corrie will each be losing an episode a week in the midst of budget cuts at ITV.
"We are all jobbing actors on the soap and there is never a day where we come in and go: 'Oh we are safe'," she told The Mirror in February.

"We are a chess piece on the producer's board. Whatever they bring to us, we bring it to the screen.
"And there is always going to be a day when a new producer might come in and need a big wipe-out."
However, she added that this isn't necessarily a bad thing, as the cast turnover "is what keeps the audience involved too, and so we have to keep up with the climate of what people expect".
Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
