Emmerdale's Andrew Scarborough is preparing to bow out from the Dales, but not before he delivers some big drama this Christmas.
Festive episodes will see Andrew's character Graham Foster interrupt the Tates' Christmas dinner and, according to the actor, get upstaged by 11-year-old Amelia Flanagan, who plays Marlon's daughter April.
Speaking about filming the Christmas episodes, Scarborough revealed: "It was good fun because we had some cracking one-liners and some ding-dong between Graham and Kim.
"I think we're going to be upstaged by Marlon and his daughter April though, because they were very funny in these scenes!
"Marlon has been cooking Christmas dinner for the Tates. He's listening to what's going on and his reactions are absolutely brilliant. April is there too and she's brilliant as well. I'm fully prepared to be upstaged – but in a good way!"
Recently viewers have seen Graham set out to discover if he is the father of Millie Tate and it's something he's still very much focused on as Christmas approaches.
What to Read Next
"He sees it a subconscious redemption thing," Scarborough explained. "He was responsible for his unborn child being killed and thinks that maybe somebody has forgiven him by giving him Millie.
"He loves Millie and is very fatherly towards her – he would be anyway even if he didn't think she was his daughter. But he's fully conscious of the fact that Kim could cause absolute hell for him if he interferes!"
Graham is set to receive the DNA test results on Christmas Eve and although Scarborough is remaining tight-lipped, he is promising some high drama.
The actor teased: "It makes him full of emotion and as Graham is not particularly great at handling emotion, there's a great spillage!"
Emmerdale airs an hour-long episode on Christmas Day at 7pm on ITV.
