Especially on nights like this when it gives me awesome Emmerdale casting news!!

http://www.itv.com/emmerdale/news/meet-the-parents/

Simply put, Priya Sharma has been recast, Mama & Papa Sharma have been cast. They're coming to the village because of Jai's engagement to Charity and to help plan the wedding.

But the best bit is that Mama Sharma is being played by the fabulous Trudie Goodwin, best known as Sgt June Ackland from The Bill!!!!

Squee!!!

The thought of Charity facing off against June Ackland is just too delicious!! (Because you know she's going to disapprove of Charity!)

Could have sworn I commented on this, but guess not...

OH MY GOD JUNE ACKLAND!!!

Thanks for posting this, it totally made my day when I read it!

Hee, you are most welcome! Isn't it the best casting news ever?!?!

Am hoping it will give Emma Atkins something decent to play for a change (and possibly stop her getting sucked into another Cain storyline - much prefer those two when they're apart!)
