💨 Abstract

Emmerdale's Chris Chittell, who plays Eric Pollard, has signed a new contract to stay with the show until at least 2026, marking his 40th year on the soap. Eric, a part-time shop owner, has been navigating the challenges of Parkinson’s disease, which has impacted his daily activities. Recently, he accepted help from Kerry Wyatt, a friend, after initially resisting care.
