Actor Kelvin Fletcher has announced that he’s not about to appear back in the Dales.
In an interview with What’s On TV, he revealed there are no immediate plans for his return, saying: “I honestly don’t know [if I’ll ever return].
“Andy wasn’t killed off, so technically I could return. But I genuinely haven’t given it much thought.”

He added: “The two years since I left have flown by and, in many respects, my leaving still feels very fresh. I must get asked a couple of times a day when I’m going back.
“While Emmerdale is in my DNA, it’s exciting doing different things.”
Father-of-one Kelvin left the show in 2016, when character Andy went on the run.
He had played Andy for 20 years, and reveals he’s still in contact with several of his former co-stars including Adam Thomas, who played Adam Barton, Danny Miller, who plays Aaron Dingle, and James Hooton, who plays Sam Dingle.
Kelvin is now preparing to play Tin Man in The Wizard of Oz in Blackpool later this year.
