Christine added: ‘It’s so much fun playing Rose. She’s free-spirited, boisterous and totally mischievous, with an edge of steel and a big heart.’
Producer Laura Shaw said: “We are hugely delighted to welcome Christine Tremarco to the Emmerdale family.
“Christine brings a wealth of experience and talent, and in portraying the character of Rose, a true free spirit with an exuberant outlook on life, she certainly promises to cause a real storm for some of our villagers.”
Despite her illustrious British television career, Liverpool-born Christine never attended drama school.
In reality, the actress was discovered at just 15 years old in a theater group and chosen to star in The Leaving of Liverpool.
The drama was about Home Children, the migration scheme that sent more than 100,000 British children to Commonwealth kingdoms such as Australia, New Zealand, Canada and South Africa.
After her young success, Christine continued in the world of acting, carving out a career in both television and film.
