Emmerdale: Caleb threatens Nicky
Actor Lewis Cope, who plays Nicky Miligan in Emmerdale, has heaped praise on co-star Will Ash who portrays his father Caleb in the ITV soap.
“Will’s been absolutely brilliant from the beginning,” he intimated. “He’s a proper mate.
“He’s always there with a smile on his face. He’s super helpful and he cares so much.
“We work really well together and he’s great if you have a question about the scene or you’re trying to figure something out. He’s just a very nice man,” he told Inside Soap.
It’s clear the actors get on far better than their characters as Nicky recently tried to kill his on screen father in a gripping storyline.

Lewis first appeared in the Dales last December and his character has made quite an impact since arriving. He very quicky seduced Gabby Thomas (Rosie Bentham), which was part of his father’s plot to get revenge on Kim Tate (Claire King).
The father and son duo were trying to take down the Home Farm matriarch and steal everything she owns. Nicky became engaged to Gabby, who is the mother of Kim’s grandchild, after he was tasked with tricking her into marrying him.
However, he eventually came clean after Gabby got cold feet and it was revealed that he was in fact gay and had a boyfriend the whole time.
He subsequently betrayed his scheming father by pushing him off a cliff, but Caleb survived although he spent time in a coma.
However, when he came around, he remembered everything and taunted his son about being pushed from the woodland ridge.

Nicky begged his father not to go to confess what happened to the police even though Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) has been wrongly arrested for the crime.
Speaking exclusively to Express.co.uk and other press about Nicky’s relationship with his dad, Lewis shared: “Yes, he’s scared of him because there’s been plenty of scenes where he’ll try to stand up to him but he just never seems to succeed. So he definitely feels inferior to him.”
When asked if Nicky has it in him to lash out again, he opined: “I don’t think he’s a massively aggressive person. But I think that everyone’s got the capacity depending on the situation. So I think, given the circumstances, maybe it could do it again.”
“I think you know, maybe he could be influenced by situations and do things again, we don’t know yet,” he speculated.
Emmerdale is on ITV Monday to Friday at 7.30pm.
