Emmerdale has revealed a first look at former Coronation Street star Paula Lane's debut scenes in the show.
Paula has landed the role of Ella Forster, a compassionate and caring newcomer who'll arrive in the village next week.
In upcoming scenes, Ella crosses paths with Paddy Kirk and Mandy Dingle when the couple attend a vets' social event together. Mandy is excited for the occasion and gets dressed in an extravagant outfit, but her fashion choice is mocked by fellow guest Jules, a loud-mouthed managing director.
Mandy expects back-up from Paddy but is furious when he panders to Jules instead ? even refusing to introduce her to Jules as his girlfriend. Paddy explains himself by admitting that he feels insecure around Jules. Mandy is still hurt, but she agrees to respect his wishes.
Ella makes an appearance when she's revealed to be Jules' personal assistant. Mandy ends up consoling Ella when she sees how badly Jules treats her.
Jules finally pushes his luck too far when he makes more rude comments about Mandy. Ella boldly sticks up for Mandy by pouring a drink over Jules.
The next day, Ella and Mandy catch up at The Hide and Manpreet Sharma overhears their conversation.
Impressed by Ella, impulsive Manpreet decides to offer her a potential job opportunity as a receptionist at the new doctors surgery.
Paula, who previously played Corrie's Kylie Platt, recently commented: "I'm so excited to be joining the cast of Emmerdale. Everyone has been so welcoming and I can't wait to start a new chapter playing the role of Ella.
"I've already heard there are big plans for her and I can't wait to see her navigate a new life in the village and hopefully make some friends!?
Emmerdale producer Kate Brooks added: "Ella is a complex and multi-layered character who comes to the village and certainly makes an impact. Ostensibly she's a good, moral character, but is there more to her than meets the eye? We are absolutely thrilled to welcome an actor of Paula's calibre to the show and we can't wait to have her light up our screens."
Paula Lane was on today's This Morning and has said that she is quite a pleasant character.... but she is not one to be messed with!!! So what will be her secret???

It seems like old Doctor Dolittle is going to be at it again. He certainly doesn't let the grass grow under his feet.Quote:

Lane suggested there's a part to Ella viewers are yet to discover and will see her fighting to protect what really matters to her: "When something or someone so important to her is put at risk she will fight so hard to protect that situation. This is a part of her we've yet to see and there is currently a lot at stake and a lot to fight for."
Every new character that is being introduced long term gets a personality transplant before long. Either lovely and pleasant to start with until something triggers them or they are horrible and vile and then something happens that makes them have a total reversal of character. I hope that Tom is going to be banished from Emmerdale rather than being killed off but I sure do not want him to show real remorse and is then forgiven by the Dingles
Completely agree.Quote:

He's a monster. He can and should get mental health therapy, but I cannot imagine ever accepting and liking him. However, just killing him off for a quick story of Belle in prison with the officers not believing the self-defense angle, would be way more annoying to me.
id say toms ending is death like father carlQuote:

Fan theories that they were in prison together ... I am convinced a lot of them have too much time on their hands but then again... soapland has gotten weirder and weirder latelyQuote:

Liam and Ella started a romance earlier this year, but their relationship came under strain after Ella revealed that she had killed her friend when she was 11 years old.
With Liam unable to get over the shocking revelation, particularly as his own daughter Leanna was murdered three years ago, Ella decided to leave the village behind.
Ella's baby news is soon revealed when she starts to feel ill while out in the village, with Liam shocked to discover the truth. He ends up sharing the news in the pub, leaving Chas upset, while Ella is also disheartened by Liam's angry response to her pregnancy.
The following day sees Chas calm Liam as he struggles to come to terms with the prospect of becoming a father again, with his bad mood leading him to shun Ella as she attempts to speak to him at his house.
seems not pregnant but has cancer
Same as Toyah in Corrie....Quote:
