Sandra Flaherty made her return to Emmerdale last week and was already causing drama.
The character, played by Joanne Mitchell, was up to no good as she reappeared in her daughter's life. Before that, she was last seen in the ITV soap last year when she reunited with her daughter at a caravan park in Wales as her alcohol addiction spiralled.
But the drinking led to her daughter, Liv, suffering a seizure and Sandra realized she was not fit to look after the youngster. She left the village but later returned and insisted she wanted to change and begged her daughter for help to get sober.
