Cleveland Campbell leaves 'Emmerdale'

[kirsty_g]

Emmerdale actor Cleveland Campbell - the Dales' Danny Daggert - is to quit the soap later this year.
A spokesperson confirmed to DS: ”Cleveland will leave in a dramatic storyline this summer but we don’t want to spoil his exit story for viewers. Cleveland has been as asset to the show and will be greatly missed by everyone at Emmerdale.
"Cleveland's decision to leave the show had absolutely nothing to do with the recent GBH allegations against him. It's been planned for him to leave for some time."
Of his exit, Campbell said: “I’ve had a fantastic five years on Emmerdale and made a lot of very good friends but I’m looking forward to pursuing other projects.”
Danny will remain on screen until August.

No great loss. Lets hope he takes his ridiculous sister with him.

Why whos his Sister???

Id dint think he had a sister apart from the one with the kid that left ages ago.

Sorry I meant his cousin - The Terrible Toni Daggert

I didnt think toni was a Daggert, but your right, she should definatly go with him.

Its a bit of a coinsidence that he "quits" a few days after he has been chargered with GBH.

good luck to him in whatever he does next

as much as i like danny i think he's been wasted on this show - he hasnt been in any big storylines for him in ages

To quote Belle Dingle:

"Good riddance to bad bad rubbish."

It is a shame that he hasn't really been used since Olly left but sad to say due to lack of storylines he will not be missed.
