A former Emmerdale star is set for major surgery and has shared a snap from his hospital bed. Matthew Wolfenden, known for his role as David Metcalfe on the hit ITV soap, has revealed to fans that he's facing an operation this week, coming shortly after confirmation that his character won't be making a comeback to the Dales. The 43 year old actor, who graced our screens from 2006 until his exit last year, was last seen in the village in November.
