Emmerdale legend Dominic Brunt 'frightened' taking on Great Yorkshire Show TV challenge

Emmerdale star Dominic Brunt seemed to have lots of fun when he visited this year’s Great Yorkshire Show.

The 52-year-old, who plays vet Paddy Dingle in the soap, tried his hand at sheepdog trialling on Wednesday. The challenge aired on Channel 5 with the actor a little concerned about what was to come.

Ahead of learning how to teach a sheepdog to herd a flock of sheep into a pen, reported by the Express, Dominic admitted: "I'm not going to lie, I am a bit nervous. What if the dog ignores me, or I lose all the sheep?

"I am frightened I am going to make a fool out of myself in front of thousands of people at The Great Yorkshire Show.” Dominic was shown the ropes by sheep farmer Erin Fflur McNaught and her loyal dog Theo.

On Tuesday, Emmerdale legends Chris Chittell and Lesley Dunlop were spotted having fun on the first day of the Great Yorkshire Show 2022. As Emmerdale fans know, the real-life couple play Eric Pollard and Brenda Walker in the soap.

They wandered around the Harrogate attraction for the 163rd Great Yorkshire Show. Thousands of people were in attendance and Pollard star Chris Chittell very much enjoyed his ice cream by the looks of it.

The Great Yorkshire 2022 will run until Friday, July 15. You can keep up with everything happening there, and any other appearances by Emmerdale stars, by visiting Yorkshire Live.
