Former Hollyoaks star Rob Norbury pops up in Emmerdale next week as a short-lived love interest for Victoria Barton.

The actor, best known for his previous soap role as Riley Costello, has landed the guest part of drayman Leon in the ITV show.

As Victoria (Isabel Hodgins) continues her efforts to move on from her ill-fated marriage to Adam, she sets her sights on Leon despite his bad reputation.

Diane Sugden and Matty Barton are both worried that Victoria is making a mistake by getting close to troublesome Leon, but she seems to be on a reckless path and stubbornly ignores their advice.

Determined to do the opposite of whatever her loved ones say, Victoria makes a point of flirting strongly with Leon and then invites him back to her place.

Once at the house, Leon kisses Victoria but she pulls away when he wants to take things further.

Finally showing his true colours, Leon becomes verbally abusive and ends up being thrown out by Robert (Ryan Hawley), who's been informed about Victoria's date and has turned up to check everything is okay.

Will Victoria thank Robert for his support, or throw it back in his face as she continues to spiral out of control?

Rob played the regular role of Riley on Hollyoaks from 2010 until 2012, when the character was killed off in a shooting incident in the Chester village.
