This is the moment Emmerdale’s Rhona Goskirk (Zoe Henry) comes face to face with Graham Foster (Andrew Scarborough) who, according to just about everybody, has been dead for six years.

The fact that Graham faked his death in 2020 was revealed during Corriedale on January 5. The character got caught up in the multi-vehicle collision involving residents from Corrie and Emmerdale.

Graham was driving a van that had a woman called Jodie (Olivia Frances Brown) in the back, who we now know is Shona Platt’s (Julia Goulding) sister.

The legendary face couldn’t resist visiting Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) in hospital following the ordeal, as he had to see if the person he thought of as a son was going to be alright after getting knocked out by the force of an explosion.

Graham will return to our screens next Tuesday, as he confronts Rhona, a former lover, at Smithy Cottage.

In this new video, Graham grabs Rhona’s face to prevent her from screaming the house down. She then touches his face and cannot believe she is looking at the man who was apparently murdered years ago.

The clip ends just as Rhona asks how on earth this is possible.

Given her shock, does that mean Rhona has been in contact with someone else, amid fan theories she was texting Graham about Ray Walters (Joe Absolom)?

‘A familiar face is returning to the village full-time! None other than Graham Foster will make a sensational comeback,’ Emmerdale’s producer, Laura Shaw, enthused as she discussed Graham coming back.

‘His return will have massive repercussions for both Kim Tate (Claire King), with whom he shares a complex love and hate relationship, and Rhona Goskirk (Zoe Henry), who was about to run away with him.

‘Graham will explain exactly what happened six years ago when he was ‘killed’, but the question will be whether Joe can ever forgive his father-figure for allowing him to believe he was dead’.

Next week’s episodes of the ITV soap will focus on what happened in the lead up to Ray’s murder.
