Emmerdale cast 2022 – who plays who?
A guide to the current Dales stars.
Emmerdale launched on ITV (as Emmerdale Farm) in 1972, but unlike the other big soaps, it doesn't have any remaining original characters.
Chris Chittell, who plays Eric Pollard, has the honour of being the longest-serving village regular after his debut in 1986. Claire King's first appearance as Kim Tate was also in the late '80s.
The Dingles, arguably the best-known family from the current cast, began to make their mark on screen from the '90s.
We've now put together a one-stop guide to who plays who in the Dales, with cast split into the decades they were introduced.
As some of the current regulars aren't the first to play their characters, we've included these actors in the decades they landed the role, rather than when the character first appeared.
