Acclaimed actress Louise Jameson has joined the cast of Emmerdale.

Louise will play Rhona Goskirk?s mum, Mary, who will burst onto the scene just in time to interrupt a very important moment in Rhona?s life.

No nonsense Mary has a strained relationship with her daughter who has always felt she was never good enough for her mother. Though Mary will prove a hit with everyone she meets in the village, will she be able to repair her broken relationship with Rhona? Can they put the past behind them and begin to cherish the fact they are mother and daughter?

With Mary?s acerbic wit and stubbornness, Rhona knows there won?t be a dull moment whilst her domineering mother is around and it?s only a matter of time before she starts ruffling feathers in the village. But how long before unsettled Rhona finds out the real reason behind her mother?s arrival?

Louise has a variety of television and theatre credits. Most notably playing the roles of Leela in Doctor Who and Rosa Di Marco in EastEnders.

Emmerdale producer Laura Shaw says: ?We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Louise to Emmerdale. It's great to have such a high calibre and talented actor join our already strong team and she will be a fabulous asset to the show. Intelligent, witty and complex, Mary promises to be a force to be reckoned with in the village and for Rhona, there won't ever be a dull moment whilst her domineering mother is around.?

Louise Jameson says of joining Emmerdale: ?It feels like such a gift to be welcomed into the Emmerdale cast. Playing Zoe?s on-screen mum is the icing on the cake.?

rhona outs her mother as gay, interesting that it is an older character coming out and her neighbour that died was her partner

Emmerdale bosses have announced that a shocking twist is on the way for Mary Goskirk's romance storyline.

Mary's love interest Faye, who was introduced earlier this year, is not all she seems and future episodes will expose her true agenda.

Emmerdale's executive producer Jane Hudson shared the news with Digital Spy and other media at a press event this week, warning of heartbreak for Mary.

Hudson explained: "We've got a lovely love story playing on screen with Mary. We see Mary falling in love with Faye and it's her first relationship since coming out.

"She's been really vulnerable and she's really put herself out there and unfortunately it's not going to be a happy ending. Mary is going to have her heart broken.

Viewers will see the storyline begin to take its new twist next week, as Faye tells Mary that there has been a fire at the women's refuge. Mary is concerned and proposes a fundraiser to help.

"I think what's really relevant for this story is how easy it is to be scammed, how easy it is to be taken in, how easy it is for love to stop you thinking logically.

"I think it doesn't matter what age you are, we're all vulnerable to be tricked and to be scammed and to be catfished."

Emmerdale schemer Faye Helders is returning to the soap as Mary Goskirk's emotional story is revisited.

Faye makes a comeback shortly after Mary receives an unexpected update on attempts to bring the con artist to justice.

In early May, Faye was revealed as a scammer who was only dating Mary with the intention of stealing her money.

When Mary realised the truth and confronted Faye, there was a scuffle over an envelope of cash. Faye ultimately made her escape, leaving Mary bleeding and concussed.

Next week, PC Swirling pays a visit to The Woolpack and informs Mary that Faye has been found.

Swirling confirms that Faye has been arrested and charged, but he adds that she's denying all of the allegations against her.

Looking further ahead, TV Times has confirmed that Faye will make a return appearance on the show in the coming weeks, with Jane Gurnett reprising the role.

Faye risks a backlash by reappearing in the village, but viewers will have to wait and see whether she manages to cause more problems for Mary or whether the village favourite will turn the tables.

Last month, Louise Jameson ? who plays Mary ? spoke about the possibility of her character finding love again after the heartbreak of being conned by Faye.

Louise exclusively told Digital Spy: "[Mary is] very reluctant to get out there again, but her community is pushing her, I can tell you that!

"Her community is starting to push her and build her confidence again. She took a beating and all of her confidence was ripped away.

"It's been a joy to play, because Mary has been very high and very low. That scamming storyline is an important one because it does happen, especially with the older generation.

"There's some awful scammers out there and it's quite nice to be part of raising the awareness."

Louise Jameson recently opened up about Mary's upcoming storylines, teasing that another "big" romance plot could be on the horizon.

"The storyliners have hinted that something big is coming Mary's way in the love life department," she hinted.

Jameson also reflected on the disheartening conclusion of Mary's relationship with Faye, adding: "How sad is that but how clever are the writers to come up with the storyline? It's an important one ? elderly people being scammed."
