    Evidence suggests that the new actor playing Gabby Thomas from early January 2016 is Rosie Bentham, 14yo, from Nottingham.

    "GOOD LUCK TO ROSIE BENTHAM who will be joining the Cast of Emmerdale early next year "
    Rollo Academy of Performing Arts, Professional Students, (accessed 29/12/15)
    http://www.rolloacademy.com/index.ph...ional-students

    Previous stage experience for Rosie Bentham includes:

    Fiddler on the Roof, 21st September 2011
    "Congratulations to Rosie Bentham who will be appearing in Fiddler on the Roof."

    The Sound of Music, 2nd - 7th July 2013, Nottingham Arts Theatre
    "Much harder to stand out from the crowd were the other children but Rosie Bentham (Brigitta) did just that. She gave a performance of total confidence with excellent characterisation, pace and boundless energy. When you add in her peerless diction it was a performance to savour. By no means the largest part but that made it all the more impressive."

    The new Gabby is better looking and looks more mature. I am guessing the new Gabby might be a love interest for Lachlan. The previous Gabby she just looked too young and the actress was not that good. All she was good at was looking moppy and sad. Good decision by the Emmerdale staff.

    I`m guessing the new Gabby will end up pregnant in 2016. It could be why the current actress playing Gabby is being replaced by someone older. Corrie did the very same thing in replacing an older actress to play Sarah when Sarah Platt became pregnant in 2000.

    It`s a shame about Gabby leaving though. No one did the death stare quite like Gabby Thomas.

    That is what I liked about the old Gabby .... She had that look and played the spoilt brat to perfection .. better than the one playing Amy in Corrie in my opinion

    No soap operas do this they get a new actor when a character ages or goes in a new direction. This is showbiz the previous Gabby was lucky she had a job for a long time. But the writers and producers clearly wanted a more mature Gabby.
