Emmerdale has shared a first look at Pete Barton's exit scenes, as the show waves goodbye to star Anthony Quinlan.

Quinlan is leaving the ITV soap after six years, having made his first appearance in December 2013. And in scenes airing next week, his character is given a low-key exit with the door open for a potential return in the future.

Pete has been struggling since taking up a new position at Wylie's Farm – the same place where his mum Emma held James hostage before his death.

Adding to that, Pete is feeling uncomfortable and like a third wheel in the village, as Tracy Metcalfe (Amy Walsh) and Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter) begin a new romance.

He finally makes a decision to leave the village and informs Tracy and Nate.

Later, Pete is waved off by Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley), Sarah Sugden (Katie Hill), Matty Barton (Ash Palmisciano), Leyla Harding (Roxy Shahidi), and Liv Flaherty (Isobel Steele) as he departs.
