Danny Miller
There has been a lot of pre-show support for Danny Miller who will be the sixth representative of Emmerdale in the show, but only the 2nd male from the soap and first since 2016 when Adam Thomas finished in the third position
Emmerdale - 5 Entries - 0 Winners - Average Finishing Position 4.8
| Actor | Year | Finishing Pos |
|---|---|---|
| Sheree Murphy | 2005 | 2/12 |
| Malandra Burrows | 2006 | 7/12 |
| Lorraine Chase | 2011 | 9/12 |
| Lucy Pargeter | 2013 | 3/12 |
| Adam Thomas | 2016 | 3/12 |
| Danny Miller | 2021 | ?? |
Chris Bisson who was in Emmerdale and also Coronation street has also appeared in the show but is eliminated from analysis because he was appearing in neither soap at the time the show was aired in 2003
What about the others?
David Ginola looks to be a good bet, the smooth-talking Frenchman is sure to be a hit on the show and his age and experience should make him a good choice for completing tasks and keeping things in order.
Danny Millers' fellow soap compatriots, Simon Gregson and Adam Woodyatt both play what might be described as characters that can be chaotic at times, but as Adam Woodyat has explained, he couldn't not be further removed from Ian Beale in real life. We shall wait and see how the pair get on, but we can expect public votes from the respective fans
Naughty Boy, is a bit of a dark horse. We know little of how he might perform other than he is a producer and DJ and lost his first task up against Snoochie Shy, but the cold castle is the perfect place to reveal a character, we will leave judgment for now, whilst the bookmakers are being equally safe by placing him in the middle of all the betting markets right now.
Matty Lee is a bit more famous as soon as you mention he is Tom Daley's diving partner and gold medal winner from the Tokyo Olympics this year. That level of determination should set him up well for tasks should he be voted and whilst the favourite to be the first male to be eliminated, we think he will last a long longer and could become a housewife's favourite thanks to an early task win alongside Kadeena Cox.
