Emmerdale star confirms he has left the soap and already filmed his final scenes despite major serial killer storyline
AN Emmerdale star has confirmed that he has already left the soap and his final scenes have already been recorded.
Geoff Dignan joined the soap as Aidan Moore - the comatose ex of John Sugden.
The couple were together during their time in the army but Aidan was soon left in a coma following a catastrophic incident.
Aidan and John were previously engaged and when he eventually woke up in hospital bed, wicked John began to panic.
However, for now, it seems that an end to the plot is on the horizon with Geoff confirming that his time on the ITV soap opera has come to an end.
The actor took to X - formerly Twitter - to reveal that his final scenes have been shot and are due to air very soon.

Writing online, he appeared to hint that Aidan could remain in his come as he suggested that a future comeback would be possible.
He posted: "I had an absolute blast playing Aidan Moore in #emmerdale I’ve met great people from the crew to the very talented cast.
"Thank you to my agent @StarkTalentUK. Who knows what’s in store 4 Aidan, after all it is Emmerdale, he’s woke up once… why not one more time."
Before it was revealed that Aidan was in fact alive, John had told his partner Aaron and his sister, Victoria, that Aidan had died during their time serving in Afghanistan.

It left them stunned when it later came to light that John had lied about this and he was in fact alive.
In recent scenes, John and Aidan briefly interacted after he woke up from his coma.
John then planned to murder him in order to keep him quiet about what when on between them but after having disconnected his hospital wires, Aidan soon slipped back into a coma once more - where he remains to this day.
Despite the news of his exit, fans are still convinced that Aidan will be forced to wake up once more in order to fully tell the truth about his foiled engagement to John.
One Emmerdale viewer said online: "Surely Aidan will wake up again soon?"
As another penned: "Aidan has to wake up.
"We need to know exactly what happened between him and John."
