Nate Robinson is set to appear in Emmerdale once more, despite being murdered last year.
Fans will soon see actor Jurell Carter in new scenes as part of the mysterious story, Metro can reveal, with a source telling us that fans will be ‘on the edge of their seats’.
In September, Nate suddenly disappeared from the village after telling Tracy Shankley (Amy Walsh) about his new job in Shetland.
At first, Nate hoped that Tracy would leave with him, so they could start their life again with daughter Frankie. Unfortunately, because this happened at the same time a rumour was circulating about Nate sleeping with Moira Dingle (Natalie J Robb), Tracy refused to entertain the idea of them living happily ever after.
With that, Nate then left the village.

However, due to the fact we never saw him actually leaves the Dales on screen, fans have been wondering since then if something else happened to him.
In February, when Amy Wyatt (Natalie Ann Jameson) fell through the frozen lake during the limo crash disaster, she spotted a floating corpse beside her.
It sparked the theory that Nate was killed and thrown in the lake by someone and soon, it seems we might finally get some answers.

The character will be on our screens again as early as next week. There’s no indication of a twist quite as massive as him getting out of that body bag from the lake, so fans can assume that a flashback of sorts may play out.
A source told Metro: ‘Ever since the revelation that Nate is dead, fans have been aching to find out the truth about what happened to him.
‘They don’t have long to wait, and they can expect huge twists and turns – it’s just the beginning of some real drama that will keep everyone on the edge of their seats.’

A theory continuing to circulate among the fanbase is that John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth) had something to do with Nate’s disappearance.
He’s a mysterious character – but is he a murderous one?
Is Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller) engaged to the next village killer?
