Emmerdale return 'sealed' for past character to save Moira after actor's cryptic comment

Emmerdale viewers speculated a return could be on the way as others hoped it was on the cards, following a comment by a past cast member regarding the latest episode of the ITV soap.

Fans wanted the character in question to return to save Moira Dingle from her scheming brother-in-law Caleb Miligan, and village villain Kim Tate.

Moria was left with an impossible choice on Wednesday, when issues with her business led to her considering selling her farming land.

After her husband Cain Dingle's brother Caleb encouraged Moira to sell the farm to Kim, amid his plan to keep Kim on side as he continues to try to fleece her, Moira wasn't convinced.

But she was left with no choice it seemed, after Caleb sabotaged her business to push her to sell her farm to Kim - resulting in financial woes for Moira and Cain.

While Caleb's plan is to destroy Kim, over his secret link to her ex-husband Frank Tate, and steal everything she has, it seems in order to continue that plan he's throwing his own family under the bus.

Caleb had lost Kim the originally chosen land for their stud farm project, and saw an opportunity when he realised Moira's land was close to Home Farm.

Now, viewers are hoping a past character might return to help Moira and save the farm, after a cryptic comment from a former cast member of the show.

Andy Sugden actor Kelvin Fletcher, whose character used to work with Moira on her farm, teased a possible comeback on Emmerdale's Instagram, saying about the farm: "I’ll buy it."

While it was possibly a jokey reference to the fact he owns his own farm in real life, fans took it as a sign he may return to the village after Andy fled in 2016.

Others begged the actor to reprise his role and buy the farm, amid Moira's dilemma.

Taking to Instagram, one fan said in reply to the comment: "Yes please. I'm sure everyone would love to see you back."

Another begged: "please come back!" as a third echoed this by saying: "come back!!!"

One viewer was convinced a return was sealed, writing: "he's coming back."

Others called for the twist, with a fan saying: "wouldn’t that be brilliant!!! What a twist in the tale!!" with a further comment saying: "brilliant that would bring you back into the show."

Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7:30pm on ITV1 and ITVX, with an hour-long episode on Thursdays.
