Emmerdale shock as character returns following five-year absence

Emmerdale viewers were left in shock when a character returned to the show after a five-year absence.

Last week, Jimmy got the shock of his life when a blast from his past returned to the village. As our colleagues at the Liverpool Echo report, Juliette turned up out of the blue at the cafe, saying she wanted to see her son Carl.

For those unaware, Juliette is the mother of Jimmy's son Carl. The child was conceived after a mix up at a fertility clinic which saw Juliette impregnated with Jimmy's sperm instead of that of her chosen donor.

However, after a rocky relationship, Juliette left Carl with Jimmy in July 2016 - and hadn't been seen since.

Viewers were shocked to see Juliette back in Emmerdale.

Lucy wrote: "How did Jimmy not recognise her?"

Garry added: "Jimmy's had a blast from the past."

And Kevin tweeted: "Juliette ain't changed much."
