Emmerdale’s Paddy Kirk star Dominic Brunt appeared on Wednesday’s Loose Women to talk about his current storyline on the hit ITV soap with Mandy Dingle

Actor and Emmerdale star Dominic Brunt halted his Loose Women interview on Wednesday after a hilarious blunder.

The soap legend, 54, who has played loveable vet Paddy Kirk since 1997 on the hit ITV soap, is part of a huge storyline this week as his character prepares to tie the knot to Mandy Dingle. However, in true soap style, a shock bombshell leaves their nuptials in jeopardy.

Only recently, Mandy Dingle resorted to desperate measures amid her serious debts and set up a findom account, which is a financial dominatrix. However, her secret side hustle was exposed this week by father-in-law Bear and on Wednesday night he reveals all to a blindsided Paddy, who contemplates whether to go ahead with his marriage or not.

Talking about the storyline on Wednesday’s Loose Women, Paddy actor Dominic said: “It’s interesting because he’s not bothered about that [the findom account]. He says: ‘You could be a laptop!’” before realising he’d made a blunder to which the audience burst out laughing as the interview came to a brief pause over the humorous mistake. Dominic then quipped: “Can we do it again, is it live?”

Following Bear’s bombshell on Wednesday night, it’s time for the big day but Paddy reveals he doesn’t want to marry Mandy. Although Bear is thrilled by the decision, Marlon still wonders if he can change Paddy’s mind. Later, dressed in her wedding gear, Mandy and Vinny share an emotional moment in the salon to which Bear enters to sour the mood, revealing that he was Mandy’s caller and Paddy now knows all about her findom business. Mandy is left devastated as she rushes to apologise to Paddy… can she save her wedding?

Earlier this year, Paddy and Mandy got engaged following a tumultuous time for the couple. Prior to the proposal, Mandy was upset that Paddy, who had previously humiliated her at an event, kissed his former flame Chas Dingle. To hit back at him, she kissed doctor Liam Cavanagh to get back at her partner. However, despite the drama, they decided to get back together when Paddy surprised Mandy in his Prince Charming outfit. When they were home later, Paddy decided he didn’t want to lose Mandy and he proposed to her.

This isn’t the first time the duo have been married and they tied the knot back in 1999. However, back in the 90s, Mandy and Paddy’s marriage came to an end after she had an affair with her college lecturer, with Mandy soon leaving the village and not returning until 2019.
