Emmerdale has cast Oliver Farnworth as an exciting new addition to the
Sugden family, in a move that is sure to surprise and delight fans of the ITV soap.
Farnworth will play John Sugden, who will shake things up for the only remaining
member of the clan, Victoria (played by Isabel Hodgins).
The catch, for now, is that we have yet to find out just how John fits into the Sugdens – the family who were at the very heart of Emmerdale when the show debuted back in 1972.
As well as becoming deeply entwined with the rich history of the Sugdens, John will catch the eye of an unsuspecting villager, so expect lots of drama surrounding his arrival, and intriguing relationships!
