From DSEmmerdale bosses have announced that Duncan Preston is returning to the show as Laurel Thomas's father Doug Potts. The actor will appear back on screen from September, when he is reintroduced as a regular cast member. Doug will re-join the village in the run-up to Laurel's wedding to Marlon Dingle, but supporting his daughter during this important time in her life may not be the only reason for his return. The Woolpack's landlady Diane Sugden will also be impacted by Doug's reappearance, which could stir up some old feelings between the two friends. Show bosses have teased that Doug has a new way of earning money which may cause Diane to see him in a different light. Speaking of his return, Preston commented: "It is lovely to be back in Yorkshire as part of the Emmerdale family. It feels like I have come home and I'm really excited about what is ahead for Doug." Doug left the village in early 2011 to rekindle life with his ex-wife Hilary. Emmerdale will air the character's return scenes on Tuesday, September 9. I'm really chuffed at this, he was always a favourite of mine

That`s excellent news....the best news in ages. Thanks sooty. I`m glad Diane is getting a storyline too. It`s about time Diane had a love interest. Less Chas more Diane in the Woolpack is what I`ve been wanting for ages.
