'Emmerdale' cast rumours aplenty
Published Thursday, Jul 17 2008, 11:05 BST | By Kris Green | 3 comments
There's a report in one of today's tabloids with various suggestions as to the fate of numerous cast members.
The article claims that Emily Symons (Louise Appleton) is taking a break; Matthew Bose (Paul Lambert) is on the verge of quitting; Ayden Callaghan's character Miles De Souza is being killed off; and Verity Rushworth (Donna Windsor-Dingle) and Jenna-Louise Coleman (Jasmine Thomas) are leaving.
Emily Symons is, indeed, taking a break from the show. A spokeswoman for the Yorkshire-based soap said: "Emily will be going back to Australia for family reasons, but she will be back."
Meanwhile, Matthew Bose is currently in discussions with producers over a new contract, as are half of the cast. Verity Rushworth and Jenna-Louise Coleman are in the same boat, but both expressed their wish to take a break from the show. When the break happens, however, has yet to be decided.
The spokeswoman added: "Matthew is contracted to the end of the year and contract discussions for 2009 are still ongoing."
And finally, Miles De Souza isn't being killed off. The door's being left open for his return.

Who cares about Emmerdale now? I'm so bored of it!

Good. Most of the cast deserve the axe, but the producer deserves sacking for how many cast have fallen underneath her.

I wish they would get rid of Andy - he has got away with far too much over the years - Robert is (was) Jacks real son like wise Victoria his own flesh and blood - yet Andy (how many people has he killed or tried to kill??) is worse than Billy ever was. Daz is great - but his side kick routine is just stupid with Jake. And now Gennie is acting like a plonker - Eli is funny - Gennie is not - they don't make a good double act - so please stop trying to make them one...
