How will the policewoman react if the Liam Fox-played Emmerdale mechanic makes a move on her next week?
Dan is still a single guy wandering the Dales years after his divorce, connection with Kerry Wyatt, and brief liaison with Faith Dingle.
However, he thinks it’s time to start looking for new love in upcoming scenes of the Yorkshire-based soap, and it seems like he’s found the ideal woman for him.
Dan will focus on Katherine Dow Blyton’s Harriet Finch the following week.
When Gabby Thomas and Kim Tate forced him and Amelia out of their home as retaliation for baby Thomas’ recent hospital visit, the police officer permitted them to move in with her.
After inviting Harriet out for drinks, Dan is devastated to discover that she doesn’t seem to understand how he really feels.
Could he be wrong?
Dan and Harriet will both have to deal with a stunning discovery before he can hope for her to realize he’s developed a fancy to her.
Only a small number of the locals are aware that Amelia Spencer has been concealing an unexpected pregnancy during the past few weeks.
Even though she dropped hints about her baby’s father during a talk with Charity Dingle, she is still keeping his name a secret.
The youngster played by Daisy Campbell sees her bond with Noah Dingle develop over the course of the upcoming week while Dan tries to get closer to Harriet.
She is accompanied to her appointment for a pregnancy scan by the ex-offender, and they even share a kiss.
Dan learns everything from Harriet after she witnesses them in action.
Sadly, this results in a heated argument in front of a large crowd, during which Bob Hope had to stop Dan from hitting Noah.
The villagers will learn all about Amelia’s pregnancy, but could they also be informed of the identity of the child’s father?
Could Harriet provide some emotional support for Dan as he deals with the pregnancy of Amelia?
