    Ellis Chapman will be back in Emmerdale for Christmas… but you might not recognise him.

    The character bid a hasty retreat from the village to join mum Jessie Grant (Sandra Marvin) in Dubai last month, after actor Asan N'Jie was abruptly sacked from the ITV soap weeks earlier.

    Emmerdale took the drastic action after N'Jie was allegedly involved in a scuffle with Hollyoaks actor Jamie Lomas at London's Hilton Park Lane Hotel during the TV Choice Awards in September.

    It looks like Ellis's time away from the Dales will be short because producers have made the decision to recast the character, with former Doctors star Aaron Anthony taking over the role from Asan N'Jie.

    "Emmerdale is a cracking show with a brilliant cast that I'm over the moon to now be a part of," Anthony said today (November 8).

    "I know Ellis is a well loved character and I'm looking forward to continuing his journey and all that's in store for him."

    Ellis will be returning totally unannounced to the village just as the tension between his dad Al Chapman (Michael Wildman) and half-brother Billy (Jay Kontzle) is reaching a breaking point.

    Will Ellis be able to put this fractured family back together in time for Christmas… without mum Jessie around to help heal old wounds this time?

    The ITV soap plans to air Aaron Anthony's debut in the role of Ellis Chapman starting in December.

    Must be ... strange that there are no proper explanation from Emmerdale production as to what happened .. seems all a bit OTT if it was about an accent being mimicked ..

    Wonder if they replace him or quickly kill him off now via the fire in the Woolpack or Meena...

    According to The Sun on Sunday he has has quit from the New Year. The scenes now showing are his last, he was persuaded to see out Christmas. He says he objected to a female Emmerdale's accent being mimicked, although the other two actors deny everything. Seems like something has been blown out of proportion.
