Some of our favourite Emmerdale stars revealed their most hilarious blunders on set during this weeks episode of ITV's Soapy Slip-Ups.
The cast were hysterics when the Strictly star had to quickly stop in the middle of a dramatic blowout to tell the crew he'd made a mistake.
As he watched it back, Kelvin told the camera: "I remember this scene, a big moment this, I was absolutely in the moment. I was distraught, I was angry that he's played a hand in my wife's death."
In the episode Andy went to call police on his brother Robert, when he suddenly bursted out: "Sorry, I just rang the police. You didn't tell me there was a sim card in it."

Co-star Charlotte Bellamy, who plays Laurel Thomas in the soap, couldn't contain herself whilst watching it back and said: "Oh my god, I haven't seen that clip!"
