Emmerdale fans figure out why John and Aaron's wedding registrar looked so familiar
Emmerdale fans were on the edge of their seats on Wednesday night as Aaron Dingle and John Sugden came within seconds of tying the knot. But they recognised the registrar from somewhere. If you thought John Sugden and Aaron Dingle's wedding registrar looked familiar on Wednesday's (May 28) episode of Emmerdale, you're not alone. John (Oliver Farnworth) and Aaron's (Danny Miller) wedding has been taking place in this week's episodes, but in true soap fashion, there have been countless dramas along the way. Secret villain John has been haunted by nightmares of being caught for Nate Robinson's (Jurell Carter) murder as the lake gets emptied due to the slurry leak at Butler's Farm. That's not all, as Aidan Moore's (Geoff Dignan) mother, and Cathleen (Julia Watson), urged John to go and visit his ex-fiancé in the hospital after he awoke from a coma, reports Leicester Live. Aaron followed John to the hospital and momentarily called off the wedding when he realised that his fiancé was visiting his ex on their wedding day. Meanwhile, in The Woolpack, the Dingles tried to contact the grooms as the wedding registrar became increasingly agitated. Despite the hurdles, John and Aaron eventually made it down the aisle on Wednesday night, but the mood soon shifted when an unexpected visitor crashed the wedding. During the ceremony, the registrar said: "If any person here present knows of any lawful impediment to this marriage, they should declare it now." Just as the couple were about to say their vows, Aaron's ex-husband, Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley), rushed through the door, saying: "Hello Aaron, missed me?" before the credits began rolling. Soap viewers will recall Robert being handed a 14-year prison sentence back in 2019 after he pleaded guilty to the attack on Lee Posner (Kris Mochrie). The registrar, who hasn't been named, is played by actress Janine Mellor, with several Emmerdale viewers only just realising that she previously starred on a rival soap. Over the years, Janine has appeared on Fat Friends, Holby City, Coronation Street, Doctor Who and Doctors. However, she is best known for her role in Casualty as nurse Kelsey Phillips, appearing in 169 episodes. Kelsey worked in the emergency department from 2005 to 2009. The character left the hospital in season 23 as she chose to start a new life. After watching Janine appear on Emmerdale in recent scenes, many soap fans have taken to social media to share her connection to Casualty. "Where do I know the registrar from, I have a feeling I've seen her before," one person asked on a Facebook fan page. "Think she was a nurse in Casualty years back," another confirmed, with a third saying: "Oh my gosh she was in classic Casualty!" A fourth viewer echoed the sentiment, noting: "Ah it's Kelsey!" with another sharing: "Her name was Kelsey in Casualty, what a throwback." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Has Gail left Emmerdale? Actress Rachael Gill-Davis' reason for leaving ITV soap
Emmerdale actress Rachael Gill-Davis has bowed out of the role of Gail Loman on the ITV soap, six years after her debut, with her reason for leaving being revealed There were sad exit scenes on Emmerdale on Wednesday night, as a fan favourite left the ITV soap for good. Viewers learned Gail Loman, played by actress Rachael Gill-Davis, was reported to be leaving the soap earlier this year. Wednesday night confirmed her exit for the first time, after the soap did not let slip whether or not it was actually happening. That said, spoilers released last week heavily hinted at the storyline and the departure for the first time before Wednesday's episode aired the exit itself. Six years after her debut on the show as the girlfriend of Ryan Stocks, Gail realised she was no longer in love with the character. She decided it was time to move away from the village and start a new life somewhere else. In sad scenes she hugged it out with Ryan and said goodbye to those closest to her, before driving out of the village for good. Gail had debuted in 2019 for a brief stint, before making a permanent return in 2023. Earlier this year it was claimed The Woolpack barmaid Gail was leaving the show for good, with actress Rachael exiting the role. But up until last week's spoilers and Wednesday's episode it wasn't made clear when or how she would go. Spoilers teasing trouble in paradise for Gail and Ryan were the first hints she might be leaving the village. She told Ryan that they no longer loved each other and that it would be best if they split up. As the pair talked things through, Gail decided to move away and left the village for good. It comes as it was revealed months earlier why actress Rachael had decided to leave her role, while it appeared to a mutual decision with show bosses. The news of the exit first emerged in reports in March, and a source claimed it was the right time for actress Rachael to "spread her wings". It was claimed by sources that the soap star felt the show didn't have much more in store for her. A source told The Sun: "Rachael has loved her time on the show but it's time to go. "Bosses felt the character wasn't inspiring much story and so it was all very amicable. The door has been left open but it's a definite goodbye for now. "Rachael is looking forward to spreading her wings and showing off her talents on other shows." It seems a return could happen some day on the show as they have kept the door open for her. Wednesday marked the actress and her character's final scenes on the soap with her now gone for good.
