ZAK Dingle returns to Emmerdale tonight after a long absence.

The patriarch of the family – who is played by actor Steve Halliwell in the ITV soap – has been living with Debbie Dingle in Scotland for the last year.

But with Debbie's return, Zak will make his own comeback tonight after driving down to Yorkshire with her young son Jack.

He will walk into the family war zone with Debbie clashing with mum Charity over her daughter Sarah's issues.

The character had returned to Emmerdale back in March following a six month break to attend baby Eve’s christening.

But Sam and Lydia Dingle confirmed that Zack was back in Scotland during their special lockdown episode in June.

He made a brief appearance on Christmas Day to wish daughter Belle a happy birthday but now he is back in the village.

Meanwhile, Zak apologises to Belle for not being there when she got admitted to hospital.

Emmerdale viewers know that Belle has been having a mental health crisis on the soap after her ex Jamie framed her for the hit-and-run which nearly killed Moira Barton.

But Belle finally got the help she needed last month after being haunted by hallucinations of Jamie and the voice of her late mum Lisa Dingle. 

After Belle pointed a knife at Tracy thinking it was Jamie, Tracy managed to bring her back to reality and got her to hospital. 

Will Zak decide to take revenge against Jamie for what he’s put Belle through?
