Emmerdale Harriet actor's sweet life away from soap with 'best pal' co-stars

Emmerdale’s Katherine Dow Blyton has opened up about spending time away from set with her famous co-stars.

Katherine Dow Blyton, 57, plays Harriet Finch in Emmerdale, and has been a firm favourite portraying the part, with fans and colleagues, since 2013. The acting star has spoken to Inside Soap about spending time with real-life Emmerdale couple Zoe Henry and Jeff Hordley - they are known in the show as Rhona Goskirk and Cain Dingle.

Katherine explained: “Out of work, I spend a lot of time with Jeff Hordley and Zoe Henry. They live around the corner.

“We do dog walks together and I’m watering duties at their allotment when they are away.” Emmerdale fans will be delighted to know their favourites are friends and socialise off set.

Katherine also revealed Laura Norton, who plays Kerry Whyatt, is another of her favourites. “The cast member who makes me laugh the most is Laura Norton,” Katherine stated.

“She is a scream and I love her dearly. I knew her before Emmerdale and she is delightful.” We have previously reported Katherine has speculated her time in the soap might be coming to an end as part of the soap’s 50th anniversary - being commemorated in October.

“Well, you never know, do you?” she replied. “That’s showbiz, one minute you are here and the next you're not here.”
