Emmerdale’s Joe Warren Plant has asked fans to keep their fingers crossed for him as he misses Dancing on Ice training after aggravating an old knee injury.

Filming himself undergoing intense physiotherapy with cold compresses, Joe said, “It sucks that we had to miss training this morning, it really, really does.

“For the past two weeks since we started it hasn’t been causing me any pain or discomfort whatsoever so automatically I just thought it was healing but I just took it a little bit too far. I’m back to square one with it.

“It’s an injury that I’ve had for months and I found myself in a cycle where it gets better, and then, boom it just happens again. But I just need to take the precautions necessary, get this knee under control and get back to work as soon as possible.”
