Former Emmerdale star Aidan O’Callaghan has been cast as the new manager of The Prince Albert in rival soap Eastenders.
The hunky actor, who portrayed a character named Mike on the long-running ITV soap, will be involved in an upcoming storyline alongside Walford regular Ben Mitchell over on the BBC.
Aidan, 33, will play the role of Lewis and will make his debut in Albert Square later this month after bagging the manager’s job at the local gay bar.
