Emmerdale legend Lisa Riley has reportedly agreed a new deal that will keep her on the soap for the foreseeable future.
The actress made her debut as the iconic Mandy Dingle in 1995, staying in the Dales for five years, and went on to make occasional appearances over the years before returning full time in 2019.
According to The Sun, Riley has now penned terms on a new contract to extend her stay until at least 2024.
"Keeping Lisa on the show is a major coup for Emmerdale and bosses are thrilled to get the deal done," a source told the newspaper.
"She's a huge personality both on and off the set, and Mandy is a big part of the soap's plans."
Emmerdale continues weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
