For those Emmerdale fans out there who are still feeling the absence of Andy Sugden, good news! Kelvin Fletcher is returning to TV.
And even better news is that he’ll be heading back on a farm.
Kelvin, who played Andy Sugden in the soap for 20 whole years, is set to appear as part of a brand new documentary called Springtime on the Farm (via TellyMix).
The Channel 5 show, which is set to air in April, will follow JLS star JB Gill living and working alongside three others on his very own farm.
JB will be joined by Kelvin, Countryfile‘s Adam Henson and Springwatch Unsprung host Lindsey Chapman, so it’s going to be a farming love-in.
Adam Henson has promised that the show will be a “real celebration” of farming that he hopes will capture the imagination of the viewing public.
While we’re on the subject of farms, it’s worth noting that this probably isn’t the last time we’ll see Kelvin rolling around in the hay, because the door to Emmerdale is always open.
Speaking to Digital Spy following his exit in 2016, Kelvin conceded that there’s still a possibility of him returning to play Andy, a character who he ‘loves’.
“If there’s a time in the future that Andy reappears as a man trying to prove his innocence, who knows? I’d leave any exciting future storylines in the capable hands of the talented producers, storylines and writers,” he told us.
“For me as an actor, I still feel like I could give more with the part of Andy and I always will.”
