Emmerdale's Marlon Dingle actor Mark Charnock has discussed his character's ongoing stroke storyline, and said it was "about the audience" from the start.
The storyline and Mark's portrayal of Marlon during the emotional plot has seen the soap and the actor win awards, most recently at the National Television Awards and the Inside Soap Awards.
But actor Mark has said the real award for doing the storyline is the "passionate" response by fans to the difficult scenes.
