Emmerdale star Danny Miller, who plays Aaron Dingle, has revealed his fears over returning to work.
The actor, who went back to filming on Wednesday (May 20), recently revealed on Twitter that everyone was “anxious” of the changes they were going to face.
He tweeted: “Wow – it was so good to be back in Aaron’s house with his lodger.
“The Aaron and Cain episode was the first of the six episodes to be shot out of that block and under the new structures and rules so everyone was naturally anxious of how and what changes we would face.”

Everyone was naturally anxious of how and what changes we would face.
The channel is working with the government to make sure all the cast and crew are protected and there are strict guidelines in place whilst filming.
The measures include social distancing. Filming units will also stay together to work in designated studios with crew using their own sanitised equipment.
However, office staff will still work from home. There will also be no on-location filming and the scripts will feature smaller numbers of actors.
