Emmerdale fans have been introduced to a new character at Home Farm - and he's quickly caught the eye of Gabby Thomas. Viewers of the ITV soap have seen the mum-of-one and Dawn Fletcher vying to be Kim Tate's next protégé but in order to have time for work, they have been interviewing candidates to look after their children.
In true Kim Tate-style, the nanny interviews at Home Farm are a formal affair but despite Billy Fletcher's reassurance, Dawn’s still uncomfortable with someone else looking after their kids. That is, however, until Nicky walked in.
Both Dawn and Gabby are both impressed with Nicky, a handsome male nanny, and when another candidate, Samantha, declines the job, Gabby's delighted to offer it to Nicky. And he quickly accepts and agrees to meet the children - Gabby's son Thomas, Dawn's son Lucas and Clemmie who she and husband Billy have since taken in.
