emmerdale arrivals and departures STACKED
Leyla Harding
Leyla left for Greece without saying bye in January, but she's due back in the summer (actress Roxy Shahidi took maternity leave). Will she come back with a surprise revelation?
Lachlan White
Teenage murderer Lachlan White brutally killed Gerry Roberts. The folk behind Emmerdale have promised that he will get his comeuppance, one way or another...
Lisa Dingle
Ahh, lovely Lisa left the farm for Scotland in May after telling Zac that she loved him more than she's loved anyone else in the world. Aww. Come back, Lisa.
Sandy Thomas
Cuddly Sandy Thomas left the Dales for Australia in February - lucky so and so. But we think the 90 year old actor, Freddie Jones, probably deserves to put his feet up down under.
Priya Sharma
After a very testing time with social services, pretty Priya Sharma is said to be leaving the show this year.
Gerry Roberts
Poor Gerry was at the receiving end of Lachlan's murderous hands in May (he finished him off with a rock - nice).
Mandy Dingle
Could Emmerdale favourite Mandy Dingle be returning to the village? Actress Lisa Riley has hinted that the rumours might be true. That would really shake things up in the Woolly.
Ross Barton
Ross has had it pretty tough since being involved in an acid attack earlier in the year. There are rumours that he'll be exiting the show later, but we don't know why or how.
Rebecca White
January saw a BIG crash in the village (caused by that menace, Lachlan White), which meant the end for two White family members. First up: Lachlan's mum, Rebecca White.
Lawrence White
Next, Lachlan's grandad Lawrence.
Matty Barton
Hannah Barton left Emmerdale for London a few years ago. After sex reassignment surgery, he returns to the village as a man called Matty - the show's first transgender character. It's a groundbreaking, progressive storyline for the show, so how will mum Moira Barton react?
