Emmerdale hints at surprising new Sugden characters amid Andy return rumours

Emmerdale could have some more Sugdens on the way if the latest episode of the ITV soap is anything to go by.

Victoria Sugden is one of the few remaining Sugdens in the village, asides niece Sarah and stepmother Diane, as well as Victoria's baby son Harry.

Her brother Andy is on the run, after his dramatic departure in 2016.

Their other sibling Robert Sugden is in prison for murder, while their father Jack sadly passed away in 2009.

Victoria's mother Sarah also died in a fire in 2000, while last week saw the tragic news that her grandmother and soap legend Annie had passed away.

Fans recently hoped Andy would return to the Dales, after actor Kelvin Fletcher was spotted back on set.

Unfortunately the actor denied this, revealing he was filming an interview.

But there could be other Sugdens in the Dales soon, after a revelation from Victoria on Monday night.
