Yes, you saw that correctly, ANOTHER ‘mysterious character’ is set to arrive in Emmerdale with ‘Kev’ played by Chris Coghill. Chris will be familiar to EastEnders fans as Tony King.

Chris joined the cast of Emmerdale this week, and while little is known at this point, it’s been revealed that Kev is in the village looking for directions. But who is he looking for and why?

Speaking of Chris’ casting, Emmerdale Producer, Laura Shaw, says: “We are delighted that someone of Chris’ calibre has joined our cast. I think the viewers will be intrigued to see how the character of Kev will cause shockwaves this autumn. Kev has a strong connection to one of our characters, and it’s safe to say his arrival is going to be a massive surprise that will have major repercussions for some of our villagers.”

Chris is enjoying the new role and says: “I am really happy to be joining the cast of Emmerdale. Kev is definitely going to shake things up a bit, and I’m looking forward to getting cracking!”
