Emmerdale star Lawrence Robb has said he’s ‘crazy’ as he told fans about a challenge he’s taking on away from the Yorkshire village. The actor is currently back at the forefront of the ITV soap after his character Mackenzie Boyd was stabbed by his wife Charity Dingle. Charity has been secretly struggling with the fact she has killed somebody after saving her own life and Mack’s during a confrontation with villain Damon ‘Harry’ Harris, who also happened to be Chloe’s dad. She has been struggling to sleep, double checking her home is always locked and jumping at loud noises ever since she shot Harry in self-defence. But Charity’s torment caused shock events as after her latest night terrors and visions of Harry were triggered by another loud noise, Charity feared for her safety and had a knife with her as she slept on the sofa – only for her to experience the nightmares again.

As Mack went to check on his wife after he heard her shouting out, a barely conscious Charity suddenly sprang up and stabbed Mack, who she believed to be Harry. Still in her nightmare, Charity attacked the villain only to come round and realise it was Mack she had stabbed but as he pleaded for her to call for help, Charity remained in an almost paralysed state. But while Lawrence is busy playing Mack on-screen, he’s also now got his work cut out off-screen.

I’m trying to raise as much money as possible to make people realise that they’re not alone.” Lawrence also posted photos and videos of some of his training session, alongside which he wrote: “London Marathon Run Alert!!!
