Coronation Street's Vicky Myers appears in Classic Emmerdale
Vicky Myers who plays DS Lisa Swain on Corrie has amassed a legion of fans since first appearing on the show in 2021.
So it was no wonder that people were quick to take to social media to share their delight at spotting a younger Vicky on a rival soap.
An episode of Classic Emmerdale that aired earlier this week featured Vicky as a receptionist at Val Lamberts' daughter's wedding.

The episode was first broadcast in February 2007.
'Unexpected legend in the Dales,' one person tweeted.
Another said: 'If you were watching Classic Emmerdale today, you might have spotted a familiar face…a little appearance from @VixMyers in 2007.'
'Oh wow Vicky looks so young there,' another added.
'Omg look who shows up when I was watching Classic Emmerdale – and still as stunning as ever,' another commented.
Classic Emmerdale is broadcast on ITV3 from 1.25pm on weekdays.
Emmerdale isn't the only show that Vicky has starred in before - she also had a significant part in Coronation Street before becoming DS Swain.
In 1998 Vicky played a nurse at Weatherfield General during the tragic demise of Des Barnes.
She had two more roles as an extra before landing the part of DS Swain.

Alongside the post Vicky wrote: "Four years of DS Lisa Swain. I can't quite believe it's been four years.'
Away from the cobbles, Vicky also had roles in shows like Ackley Bridge, Casualty and a main role in the ITV drama The Long Shadow.
