Emmerdale's Zak Dingle is taking a break from the show so actor Steve Halliwell can spend more time with his family, he announced today.
The 56-year-old actor, who has played flat-capped layabout Zak since 1994, said: "After the best part of a decade with the programme, I feel that now is the time to leave Zak behind for a little while."
He added: "I love Zak, I love Emmerdale but I've asked for a spell out to spend some quality time with my family and friends."
Halliwell said programme makers had been supportive of his request to take time away from the show.
He said there had been no rows or money issues behind his request.
"I have absolutely no axe to grind with Emmerdale or those who make it. This isn't about salary or storylines, it is quite simply that I'm ready for some down time and looking forward to a rest."
"I've just got to pick up the phone and they'll write me back into storylines."
Emmerdale producer Steve Frost said Zak's spell away from the show will begin towards the end of the year, but the rest of the Dingle clan will remain.

I hope he don't leave with Joanie, let him go off alone to see his daughter Tina as Cain isn't allowing him to go to Ireland

As he knows now about Gordon, do you think he may kill him or hurt him seriously and end up going to prison

Emmerdale's Zak Dingle hasn't been in the good books of many fans recently, but he was back to his best on Tuesday night (April 12) for a touching scene with David Metcalfe.

David turned to Zak (Steve Halliwell) for some much-needed advice after receiving the upsetting news that he'd have to lose a testicle as part of his battle against cancer.

Knowing that Zak has also fought testicular cancer, David felt that he was the best person to seek out for an emotional heart-to-heart.

Giving honest but heartfelt advice, Zak was the perfect confidant for David.

Zak gives advice to David

Zak's relationship with Joanie Wright (Denise Black) has turned him into a divisive figure both on screen and off recently, but there's no doubt that he's still one of the village's good guys.
