manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Emmerdale's newest producer has promised dramatic stunts, a new arrival and a blast from the past for one couple. Sophie Roper has officially begun her new tenure at the helm of the ITV soap alongside fellow producer Laura Shaw.

It was announced in June that alongside Laura, Sophie will take creative responsibility for Emmerdale’s storytelling, casting and the production process.

She has already been undertaking the role since April of this year when her predecessor Kate Brooks was appointed the new producer for Coronation Street.

It has meant she has moved from her previous role as a story producer for Emmerdale which she has held since joining ITV’s multi-award-winning Yorkshire-based soap in July 2016.
