Emmerdale fans were surprised to see a famous face from another soap appear in Friday's episode.
In the latest instalment, Leyla Cavanagh's drug addiction took a severe turn, as she went to desperate lengths to buy cocaine. Leyla was seen travelling to the countryside to meet a man selling cocaine.
However, viewers were distracted as they recognised the dealer from a different show. Taking to Twitter, viewers noted that the role was being played by Parry Glasspool, who played Harry Thompson on Hollyoaks between February 2015 and July 2019, reports the Mirror.

One fan said: "Was that drug dealer off #Hollyoaks, he looks familiar?" Another added: "It's interesting to see Parry Glasspool in the start of tonight's #Emmerdale - he's hardly changed since he played Harry in #hollyoaks!"
A third tweeted: "Oh hello it’s Harry from Hollyoaks. #Emmerdale." A fourth said: "Leyla looking to make a purchase from Harry off Hollyoaks #Emmerdale."
And a fifth said: "Harry from Hollyoaks is now a dealer #Emmerdale." When Liam asked to borrow the car, she refused and was forced to drive him to work instead. Leyla found herself distracted in the car and her and Liam ended up bumping into the back of an off-duty police officer, forcing her to ditch the drugs.
So she quickly had to return to dealer Jason for some more drugs. He said: "Are you selling my stuff? Are you buying stuff off me and then selling it to other people?
"Am I your stopgap while you’re between wholesalers? Because you don’t look like someone getting through three grams in a couple of hours. Don’t be selling to my customers, or you’ll put me in a bad mood. And I’m not nearly as much fun when I’m in a bad mood."
