Hi, Nicola! What\u2019s coming up for your character on Emmerdale?<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m about to start filming more stuff with Bradley Riches<\/a> [aka Lewis] at the caf\u00e9. Bradley\u2019s an absolute dream. I love that Nicola\u2019s this cantankerous old cow, and he\u2019s this sweet, young, pretty male, but it all works.”<\/p>\n

What would you like to see for Nicola and Lewis?<\/p>\n

“We\u2019ve been asking when we are getting a makeover at the caf\u00e9 interior! Get all your readers to write in. Everybody who comes in says, \u2018Have you seen your prices? They look like they were set, like, 15 years ago!\u2019”<\/p>\n
