A new Emmerdale addition has joined the show from ITV rival Coronation Street.
We know soapland is a small place with acting stars regularly switching from programme to programme. As our colleagues at the Manchester Evening News report, Eagle-eyed Emmerdale fans will likely notice new addition Terry from Corrie.
Earlier this week, Emmerdale viewers will have seen Terry met with Sandra - who only recently returned to the soap. So, Terry is played by Neil Bell who has actually had four spells in Coronation Street.

Most notably, Neil, 53, played Billy Matheson in 2011 and then in 2020 he returned in the different part of Mick Chaney. So, no wonder Corrie fans noticed the star.
The Oldham-born actor has also had roles in season three of Downton Abbey and in 2013 he played Harry Fenton in Peaky Blinders. You might also recognise Neil from Dead Man's Shoes, Shameless, Casualty and This Is England 90.
More recently, Neil played a police officer in the 2020 Netflix film Enola Holmes and Sardaukar Bashar in the 2021 blockbuster film Dune.
