Emmerdale fans have been sharing their predictions as they spotted the start of Cathy Hope's new storyline. It was teased earlier this month that the young character, played by Gabrielle Dowling, will be the centre of a huge new storyline in the new year.
Speaking to the Manchester Evening News and other press, the ITV soap's executive producer Jane Hudson gave a hint of what's to come in 2023 and vowed Cathy's story' 'hasn't been seen in a soap before'.
She said: "You'll see a really big story for Cathy, Bob's daughter, which is really emotional and topical. It's her first big story really and it's a challenging one. I think it's one that a lot of parents will connect with and it's one I haven't seen a soap do before."
