Emmerdale fans shock as Kelvin Fletcher makes surprise appearance in ITV's McDonald and Dodds

Former Emmerdale star Kelvin Fletcher made a surprise appearance in last night's episode of McDonald & Dodds on Sunday 26 June.

Kelvin Fletcher, who is best known for his role as Andy Sugden in the long running soap, has not been seen in the Dales since 2016 since he left to pursue other opportunities.

ITV aired a new instalment of crime drama McDonald & Dodds last night and fans were left gobsmacked when they spotted the familiar face.

Actor and racing car driver, Kelvin, played one of the main suspects in last night’s case as the new instalment of the crime drama’s third season starring Tala Gouveia and Jason Watkins as DCI McDonald and DS Dodds kicked off.

The 38-year-old made a brief appearance during last night’s episode as a member of the team the late driver was a part of and of course it wasn't long before social media was flooded with comments.
