Emmerdale's newest character may be 'too good to be true' if the actor who plays Nicky is anything to go by. Lewis Cope is set to make his debut in the ITV soap as the new nanny at Home Farm. In upcoming scenes, viewers will see Gabby Thomas and Dawn Taylor interviewing candidates to look after their children while they work for Kim Tate.
The pair appear set to go head to head for Kim's affections when it comes to business and so they need all the time they can get. And in true Kim Tate-style, the nanny interviews at Home Farm are a formal affair but despite Billy’s reassurance, Dawn’s still uncomfortable with someone else looking after their kids.
They still press on with the interviews and after a couple of candidates don't quite fit Dawn, Gabby and Kim's bill, the competition for Home Farm's nanny gets hotter when both Dawn and Gabby are both impressed with Nicky – a handsome male nanny. When another candidate, Samantha declines the job, Gabby’s delighted to offer it to Nicky.
