Emmerdale has confirmed that Daz Spencer is returning to the soap for Amelia's exit storyline.

Teen character Amelia bows out from the ITV soap later this month following her recent involvement in the long-running Tom King plot.

Amelia started a relationship with Tom in September following his split from his wife Belle.

Viewers saw Amelia stand by Tom amid the disturbing revelations that he'd abused his wife Belle, refusing to believe that it could be true.

More recently, Amelia started to see Tom's cruel and abusive behaviour firsthand, and she finally turned against him when he was charged with coercive control and assault.

In upcoming scenes, Amelia decides that there isn't much left for her in the village and she announces that she's moving away to live with Daz, her biological father.

Amy Wyatt throws a last-minute goodbye party, but Amelia is disappointed when Kerry doesn't show up.

Amelia says her goodbyes to the other villagers, but will Kerry really let her go without making an appearance to wish her well?

Daisy Campbell, who plays Amelia, told Digital Spy and other press: "It was emotional to film the final episodes. It was weird, because we film in two-week blocks. So, the first week was really emotional, because Mark Jordon, who plays Daz, comes back. It was lovely to see him again.

"So, that was really emotional, and whenever I work with Laura Norton, who plays Kerry, she's so good at doing emotions. The way she cries, I cry!

"Then on the second week, I think I was used to it. I was really dreading my last block, because I hate crying in front of people unless it's for a scene. But my last week just felt fine. I didn't really cry that much. I was actually proud of myself. I was like: 'Oh, I've not got teary scenes this week'. But it was emotional, really emotional."

She added: "Amelia ends up going to live back with Daz in Leicester. We had a scene where I had to say: 'I'm off to move to Leicester with Esther!' So she ends up moving back with Daz, which is nice. He comes back for one episode, which is lovely."

Emmerdale airs these scenes on Friday, December 19, on ITV1 and ITVX.
