    Mandy Dingle

    Lisa Riley could return to Emmerdale following her success on Strictly Come Dancing.

    The actress, who left the dancing competition in last night's (December 16) semi-final, played Mandy Dingle in the ITV1 soap from 1995 to 2001.

    New Emmerdale producer Kate Oates could offer Riley a deal to rejoin the cast, the Daily Star Sunday reports.

    "Lisa has been a huge hit on Strictly so it's no great surprise Emmerdale bosses want her back," a source said.

    "Mandy's ex-husband *Paddy Kirk is having marriage *problems so it makes sense to bring back Lisa."

    A friend of Riley's admitted that the 36-year-old would have to think hard about making a comeback to Emmerdale.

    "Lisa loved her time on Emmerdale but she's finally known for being Lisa Riley rather than Mandy Dingle," the source said.

    "She wants to use her Strictly success to open new doors. Having said all that, she isn't stupid enough to rule out a return without at least discussing it."

    Please no. There are far too many Dingles in Emmerdale as it is.

    Emmerdale star Dominic Brunt has addressed rumours that Lisa Riley might rejoin the soap.

    The Dales actor, whose alter ego Paddy Kirk was married to Riley's character Mandy Dingle, believes a surprise comeback would be "very, very interesting".

    "I'm in touch with Lisa and I'm dying to ask her, but I don't think she'd tell me," he told Soaplife magazine.

    "Her return would be very, very interesting. She was Paddy's first love and his first wife and she'd certainly shake things up."

    New Emmerdale producer Kate Oates was said to be interested in approaching Riley, who played Mandy from 1995 to 2001.

    Riley's profile soared after reaching the semi-finals of last year's Strictly Come Dancing.

    Mandy Dingle

    Getting sick of Mandy's overbearing attitude to everything and everybody and the actress's overacting in just about every scene.
    When Vinny is with her she treats him like a little child constantly undermining him, then when he does something grown up, that's not good enough either. Her constant screaming at everybody demanding to know where Vinny is, is getting very boring.
    Now that he is a happily married man with a lovely wife, maybe she will calm down and act like an adult herself. I won't be holding my breath.

    Mandy to return

    Emmerdale fans have been missing the loveable and lively Mandy Dingle as she's been absent in recent episodes of the ITV soap.

    Lisa Riley, who plays Mandy in the soap, has been taking a break from the show after suffering the heartbreaking loss of her grandmother. The actress also didn't attend the British Soap Awards earlier this month following her family bereavement.

    However, the soap star has now shared some positive news for fans by giving an update on her return to Emmerdale.
    When one fan questioned when they could expect to see Mandy back in Emmerdale, Riley confirmed: "Middle of July".
