Emmerdale star confirms exit from ITV soap and has already filmed final scenes
An Emmerdale star has taken to social media to confirm they've filmed their final scenes in the ITV soap - thanking the 'great people' he's met along the way
An Emmerdale star has confirmed he's filmed his final scenes in the ITV soap - as he took to X, formerly known as Twitter to thank the cast and crew.
Last week, fans saw John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth) visit his former fiancé Aidan Moore (Geoff Dignan) in the hospital. He had been in a coma for years, but suddenly a few days ago, he woke from his coma - leaving John instantly panicked.
John suffered a nightmare where Aidan walked in and tried to stop his wedding - prompting his visit. However, fans were left gobsmacked when it was actually Aaron's ex Robert Sugden who walked in.
During the visit, John asked Aidan's mum if he could leave them alone. As Aidan tried to reach for the help button on his bed, John pulled out a syringe and made his motives very clear.
"I never wanted to have to do this but you gave me no choice. I wanted something painless so you'd just drop off but my mum wouldn't leave me alone so this is all I could grab," he said before silencing the machine and injecting the liquid.
He had a change of heart at the last minute, - but Aidan suffered a cardiac arrest and slipped back into a coma Although he didn't die - fans were left wondering if his days in the Dales were numbered.
Now, Geoff has confirmed it's the end of Aidan's story - for now. Taking to his X account, the actor shared screenshots of his scenes from last week, along with the caption: "I had an absolute blast playing Aidan Moore in Emmerdale.
"I've met great people from the crew to the very talented cast. Thank you to my agent @StarkTalentUK."
However, Geoff teased that the character could maybe be back in the future, as he added: "Who knows what's in store 4 Aidan, after all it's Emmerdale, he's woken up once... why not one more time," as he concluded with a laughing face emoji.
John's secrets continue to be unearthed, and fans are aware the villain killed Nate in a shock twist, that was revealed earlier this year. This week, it's set to be revealed that it's Nate's body in the lake leaving Cain and Moira are blindsided by the shocking news.
Things are set to get even worse when Cain finds himself in the frame for Nate's murder after police learn of their fall out on the day he died.
But will they ever find out the truth and will John ever be exposed?

Tommy Robinson opts for jury trial after denying harassing two journalists
Robinson, 42, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, pleaded not guilty to two counts of harassment causing fear of violence at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Thursday before being released on bail. He is alleged to have harassed MailOnline journalists Andrew Young and Jacob Dirnhuber through his X account between August 5 and 7 2024. During the hearing, which lasted around 20 minutes, Robinson was told that his case could be heard at a magistrates' court but instead the defendant chose a jury trial held at a crown court. Addressing Robinson, Senior District Judge Paul Goldspring said: 'Mr Lennon I have decided that if you wanted, you can have your case at this court as the powers are sufficient but you have elected to have a jury trial as is your right. 'Your case is sent to the Crown Court sitting at Southwark where you must appear for a plea and trial preparation hearing on July 3. 'You are free to go Mr Lennon.' Wearing a cream Stone Island jacket, blue jeans and a man bag, Robinson smiled after he was bailed. Speaking outside court after the hearing, Robinson said: 'I've been given now the opportunity to have a jury trial. I've never had that. 'I want to be tried by twelve members of the British public. I want them to hear the evidence in this case.' Earlier in the hearing, the defendant spoke to confirm his date of birth and name, giving it as 'Stephen Lennon'. Of the charges, Prosecutor Ben Holt told the court: 'It is alleged that the defendant has harassed two journalists and their family members through the use of a Twitter or X account.' He added that none of the alleged harassment contained 'direct threats of violence'. The political activist arrived at the London court to a hoard of photographers and reporters, with dozens of his supporters also present. Some of those outside the building sported Union flags while others held purple placards that read: 'Stephen Yaxley-Lennon is the man. Tommy Robinson is the movement.' Many of his supporters were also present in the court's public gallery, including a man wearing a Union flag suit. Robinson was again surrounded by supporters and media as he left the court building in the pouring rain to chants of 'Tommy, Tommy', with some of his followers wearing 'Make England Great Again' hats.
