Emmerdale star Reece Dinsdale has admitted his exit from the soap was just as explosive as saying goodbye to Coronation Street.
The 61-year-old actor previously appeared in Corrie as Gail Platt’s love interest Joe McIntyre.
He quit the show in 2009, before his character was killed off in February 2010 after drowning in Lake Windermere.
