Adam Thomas has shared a picture of himself on the set of Emmerdale set as he tells fans ‘I’m back’ seven years after leaving the ITV soap

Former Emmerdale star Adam Thomas has teased fans with a picture of himself on the set of Emmerdale, seven years after leaving the ITV soap.

The fan favourite, who played Adam Barton on the ITV soap between 2009 and 2018, took to his Instagram this morning to share a photo of himself with the iconic sign. “I’m BACK!!!!” he wrote.

Adam’s post sent fans wild, with one writing: “Is this true? Please be true!!!” as a second fan penned: “I really hope this is true as you were my favourite Barton ever!!!!!!!”

However, the Mirror understands there’s currently no return planned for Adam, and he was on set for another reason. Many fans weren’t falling for the prankster’s post – as they predict he’s there for another show.

Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan wrote: “They were filming the new series of You Bet! On Tour in the village yesterday so it might be that.”

The Mirror have contacted Emmerdale for comment.

The character was last seen on screen in Janurary 2018, after confessing to the murder of Emma Barton in order to protect the real killer – his mum Moira Dingle. On the day of his sentencing Aaron and Cain Dingle turned up and broke Adam out of the prison van, and is thought to be living abroad.

The 36-year-old is currently starring as Donte Charles in BBC One’s Waterloo Road, and recently launched new game show 99 To Beat with his brother, Ryan Thomas.

Despite there currently being no plans for Adam’s return, his brother Ryan Thomas recently reprised his role as Jason Grimshaw in ITV soap Coronation Street for his onscreen mother Eileen Grimshaw’s (Sue Cleaver) exit.

The star returned to the soap for a short stint, as his mother Eileen left Weatherfield after 25 years to start a new life in Thailand with her son. Sue revealed she rang Jason to ask him to come back for her exit, an offer he couldn’t decline.

“It took me half a day to get rid of the nerves. It was a bit of a shock to the system at first. I even went on YouTube to rewatch old scenes and got nervous.” Ryan said.

However, it didn’t take him long to get back into the swing of things, with fans left gutted when he made his exit once again after the short stint.
