The Emmerdale village has officially relocated to the Australian jungle, and they’re on a mission that has left the entire nation sobbing into their soap schedules.

In an emotional whirlwind that nobody saw coming, cast members past and present hijacked every screen they could find last night to deliver one thunderous, tear-soaked message to Britain: “COME ON LISA!”

Lisa Riley, the 48-year-old fireball who has played loud, loyal, leopard-print-loving Mandy Dingle for nearly three decades, is just days away from the I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! final. And her Emmerdale family is refusing to let her leave without the jungle crown.

Speaking live on This Morning, an visibly emotional Danny Miller (Aaron Dingle) could barely get the words out: “She’s not just our colleague; she’s our sister, our rock, our absolute legend. Lisa has carried so many of us through the darkest times off-screen. Now it’s our turn. Please, Britain; vote Lisa. Come on Lisa!”

Within minutes the hashtag #ComeOnLisa was trending number one worldwide as the entire Emmerdale roster detonated social media with the same three-word war cry.

Dominic Brunt (Paddy Kirk, Mandy’s on-screen husband) posted a video from the woolpack set, holding back tears: “I’ve known Lisa for 27 years. She’s the strongest woman I’ve ever met. She’s faced things that would break most people and still turns up with that massive smile and makes everyone feel like they matter. She deserves this more than anyone. Come on Lisa!”

Even legends who left the show years ago joined the fight. Adele Silva (Kelly Windsor) shared childhood photos with Lisa, writing: “This woman taught me how to be brave when I was a terrified teenager. Now she’s showing the whole country what real courage looks like eating kangaroo anus with a grin. Vote for our queen. COME ON LISA!”

The outpouring comes after an extraordinary few weeks in the jungle that has seen Lisa transform from loveable loudmouth to national treasure. Viewers have watched her sob about losing her beloved mum, open up about her decade-long battle with alcohol, and reveal the heartbreaking truth about her dramatic 12-stone weight loss after doctors warned she might not see 50.

Yet every night she’s been the camp’s unofficial therapist: calming Coleen Rooney during panic attacks, making Oti Mabuse howl with laughter, and hugging Dean McCullough through his tears after every trial.

And the trials, my God, the trials. Lisa has smashed every single one thrown at her: buried alive with rats, drinking blended cow intestines without flinching, even singing “Sweet Caroline” while fish guts rained on her head, all while screaming her now-iconic catchphrase: “This is for Emmerdale!”

Back in the UK, the Emmerdale set has become a 24-hour voting war room. Crew members have “COME ON LISA” banners plastered across the green room. Producers have paused filming so the cast can phone-bank fans. Even the sheep in the farm scenes have little signs tied to them reading “Vote Lisa or we strike.”

Current queen of the Dales, Amy Walsh (Tracy Metcalfe), told us exclusively: “Lisa FaceTimed us from the jungle satellite phone at 3 a.m. her time just to check we were all okay after a tough week on set. That’s who she is. She’s starving, covered in bites, hasn’t had a proper loo in weeks, and she’s still worrying about us. If that’s not a winner, I don’t know what is.”

As the final looms, bookies have slashed Lisa’s odds to favourite after she survived five consecutive public-vote eliminations, each time roaring “I’m doing this for the Dingles!” as Ant and Dec read her name.

Last night, in a moment that broke the internet, the official Emmerdale Instagram went live with over twenty cast members crammed into the Woolpack, arms around each other, chanting in perfect unison: “Come on Lisa! Come on Lisa! Come on Lisa!”

The camera panned to a life-size cardboard cut-out of Mandy Dingle wearing a makeshift jungle crown made of tinsel and leopard-print fabric.

Danny Miller ended the broadcast choking up: “Lisa Riley isn’t just playing a national treasure. She IS the national treasure. Let’s bring our girl home with that crown where she belongs. Britain, we’re begging you; one last push. COME ON LISA!”

With only days left, the message is crystal clear: the entire village of Emmerdale has spoken, and they want their Mandy to be Queen of the Jungle.

Will the nation answer the call?

Come on Lisa. The Dingles never lose. And neither will you.
