Astronomer said in a statement: "As stated previously, Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met.

Emmerdale's Dylan returns as fans 'convinced' of family link
Fred Kettle, who played troubled teen Dylan Penders, had previously hinted at 'trouble' for Dylan's return. Dylan played a vital role as April Windsor's friend when she ran away from home earlier this year. However, fans believe that the character's return may lead to upset among one of the soap's families. In a new interview with actor Mark Charnock, who plays Marlon Dingle, on Emmerdale's Facebook page, Fred spoke of his delight at being back. And sneaky fans were quick to speculate that he's part of the Dingle clan. Suggesting he could be a "long-lost Dingle" relative, one user said: 'I'm happy he's back, but I think he could be one of the Dingles' children. 'I think it's Marlon's wife, Lydia's son who she thought died.' Another added: 'Aww loved Dylan, fantastic actor, he's going to go a long way. And I'm convinced he's Eli's son.' While another added: 'Is he Marlon's nephew?' and in response, one fan commented: 'I think that's what a lot of us are hoping.' A post shared by Fred Kettle (@fred_kettle) While a third said: 'I notice they're bringing Dylan back! Wouldn't it be funny if Dylan ended being a long-lost Dingle!' Speaking to The Mirror last month, actor Fred Kettle said he couldn't wait to be back on the ITV soap. "I am so glad to be back,' he said.

She said: "The lovely Fred Kettle who played Dylan, is coming back to the show. "He is going to be bringing his past back to the village with him and that's going to cause huge problems for April and the family there.'
