Emmerdale viewers were taken aback as they recognised a newcomer on tonight's show.
Thursday's edition of the long-running soap continued to explore the blossoming romance with Ethan Anderson and Marcus Dean. However, Ethan was forced to leave Marcus midway through tonight's hour long episode as the defence lawyer was called upon to represent a new client following an attack in the village.
The character, played by Emile John, arrived at the police station to meet Jordan Greenlow, who had been arrested after he attacked Billy Fletcher. Billy was admitted to hospital due to his injuries - and later revealed to Dawn the assault was racially motivated.
