Emmerdale has cast a Slow Horses star to the cast in a mysterious role, one that is set to "shake things up" on the ITV soap.
Actor Chris Coghill, who plays Hobbs in the Apple TV+ drama, has joined the Emmerdale cast this week as a new character known only as Kev.
He arrives at the village supposedly looking for directions, but it seems like he's actually looking for someone. The question is, who, and why?
Emmerdale's executive producer Laura Shaw said that: "We are delighted that someone of Chris' calibre has joined our cast.
"I think the viewers will be intrigued to see how the character of Kev will cause shockwaves this autumn.
"Kev has a strong connection to one of our characters and it?s safe to say his arrival is going to be a massive surprise that will have major repercussions for some of our villagers."
Coghill himself has added that: "I am really happy to be joining the cast of Emmerdale. Kev is definitely going to shake things up a bit and I'm looking forward to getting cracking!"
The actor has started filming his debut scenes this week, and is set to first appear on screen in September.
That's not the only thing happening in September, as that's when Slow Horses returns for its highly-anticipated fifth season.
The show, which follows a group of secret agents who are considered failures and assigned to do menial tasks, is a big hit for the streamer, and has been renewed for not just a sixth, but a seventh season.
