It's hard to imagine anyone else but Emmerdale actress Zoe Henry playing the role of Rhona Goskirk in the long running ITV soap, but the fan favourite has revealed she almost lost out on the part.
Zoe, who is married to Emmerdale co-star Jeff Hordley, made her first appearance in Emmerdale 21-years-ago and became a full-time cast member in 2010.
Rhona Goskirk is currently going through an emotional storyline as her on screen partner Marlon recovers from a stroke, the pair got married last year in tear-jerking scenes.
