Emmerdale
EM/ Steve passed away in December 2023

Emmerdale is preparing to bid a final goodbye to the iconic Zak Dingle. In the upcoming episodes, the villagers will get the news that Zak and his granddaughter Debbie have passed away in Scotland. The makers reached the difficult decision to kill off Zak’s character after legendary actor Steve Halliwell (Zak) passed away last year.

Thus, Zak Dingle’s memorial will be Emmerdale’s way of paying tribute to the character as well as his portrayer, Steve Halliwell. The funeral episode will go on air later in October 2024. Speaking about the emotional scenes, Lisa Riley told The Sun that the cast was in tears while filming the funeral scenes.

The actress also revealed that a legendary character is making a comeback to be a part of the grand tribute to Steve and his character Zak. “There is going to be someone coming from the past who will have repercussions for Mandy and Paddy and Vinnie especially moving forward,” Lisa teased.

Lisa Rey refrained from revealing anything about who this returning character is, but she did mention that it is not actress Adele Silva as Kelly Windsor. However, she would love to see her come back to the soap. “We’d love Kelly back! She’s amazing and we love her. I’d love her to come back,” she pointed.
