There are two new cast members ready to set up home in Emmerdale – and will be ‘instant hits’ with the locals.
Soap bosses confirmed Charles (Kevin Mathurin) and his son Ethan (Emile John) will be rocking up to the Dales in the coming months.
Vicar Charles makes himself at home in his new surroundings, and quickly becomes a close ally and a support system for Harriet Finch (Katherine Dow Blyton).
Ethan proves that the apple hasn’t fallen far from the family tree, ‘inheriting his dad’s strong sense of justice’ so that he can carve out a law career for himself.
Something tells us he’ll get a lot of business from his neighbours…
However, things don’t get off to a good start for the pair, when Ethan gets wrongly accused of a crime.
They also end up having a run-in with the Dingle clan shortly after their arrival.
The first of many, we predict…
Speaking about the pair, producer Sophie Roper raved about the new additions to the Dales.
‘We’re delighted to be welcoming Kevin and Emile to the show and this dynamic new father and son duo, are set to send shockwaves through the village as they find themselves embroiled in the heart of a thought-provoking story with one of our most loved families,’ she said.
‘With two actors of such great calibre, they’re certainly set to make their mark on the Dales.’
Lifting the lid on his new role, Kevin continued: ‘I am over the moon to be joining the cast of Emmerdale.
‘The show has always been a family favourite and my mum is a huge fan.
‘The cast and crew have all been so welcoming and I am really looking forward to Charles’ storylines in the Village.’
Onscreen son Emile John added: ‘Being given the opportunity to play Ethan is an absolute dream come true.
‘I feel a tremendous sense of responsibility in articulating his struggle with truth and authenticity and I can only hope that the audience fully engage with him in the same way I have.’
