House of Commons speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle has dropped into the Emmerdale bistro, as production added him into an episode after being unable to use footage of him last year because of the general election.
Sir Lindsay’s cameo on Monday sees him enter the fictional Yorkshire village’s Hide Bar & Bistro in a tweed jacked and wellies as a Lancastrian rambler, and compliment Laurel Thomas (Charlotte Bellamy) on her Yorkshire tea after ordering it.
