Victoria Sugden appeared in a video call in Emmerdale on 30 October but declined to return to the village.
Victoria Sugden made a surprise appearance on Emmerdale on 30 October in a video call, marking her first return to screen since leaving the village earlier in the year after killing her half-brother John in self-defence.
The character, played by Isabel Hodgins, appeared during the Friday episode available on ITVX. In the call, Robert urged Victoria to come back to help with a new family business, but she declined. Victoria told him: 'I'm happy here. I won't lie to you Robert. I won't ever feel like coming back.'
The scene was filmed secretly during Hodgins' maternity leave. The 32-year-old welcomed her daughter Georgie in February with husband Adam Whitehead. Hodgins had previously expressed hopes of returning to Emmerdale full time in September, saying it would be her ideal timeframe, but the brief video call appearance suggests a full-time return is not expected this year.
Meanwhile, Emmerdale and Coronation Street will be removed from ITV's schedule on Friday, 6 November, to make way for rugby coverage. Ireland face Argentina in the Nations Championship, with the match shown from 7.15 pm to 10.30 pm and kick-off at 8.10 pm. Mark Pougatch will present coverage from Aviva Stadium. Emmerdale normally airs from 8 pm to 8.30 pm, followed by Coronation Street from 8.30 pm to 9 pm.
