Is Graham Foster leaving Emmerdale?

Andrew Scarborough - who plays Graham Foster - has quit Emmerdale and his character will leave the village in dramatic scenes set to air in the new year.

The Sun Online exclusively revealed this month that Graham won’t make it out of the village alive, and will be murdered by one of multiple suspects in a dramatic whodunnit plot.

Viewers have watched Graham become embroiled in an explosive storyline with Kim Tate after he brutally rejected her for Rhona Goskirk.

Kim’s publicly announced she was married to Graham to get her own back on her ex, but Graham got the upper hand when he sneered he was the father of Kim’s granddaughter Millie.

Despite Kim’s warning to stay away from Miliie, fans saw Graham ring his lawyer to ask how to legally obtain paternity results.

With a showdown on the horizon, Graham is set to be killed in dramatic fashion. But who is the culprit?

Who kills Graham Foster in Emmerdale?

Emmerdale has confirmed there will be a special week of episodes in January where individual suspects will have entire episodes devoted to their motives.

It’s looking like there are at least seven potential suspects who would want to see the end of Graham...

Kim Tate

First up is Kim Tate - who fans know is partial to a bit of revenge.

The blonde baddie and dark businessman are in the middle of a feud after Graham rejected her and announced her son Jamie was the one to put her behind bars.

With Graham threatening to wreck Jamie’s happiness and reveal his one-night stand with Andrea, Kim is likely to go to desperate measures to keep the former soldier quiet.

But will she get blood on her hands?

Charity Dingle

With Charity’s son Noah set to suffer a drug overdose in upcoming scenes, Charity is looking like a prime suspect in the murder after she points the finger at Graham for the incident.

Fans on Twitter are convinced it could be the pub landlady who's behind the murder.

One fan tweeted: “I don’t want charity to go back to prison @ emmerdale so if she does kill off graham she better get away with it.”

Another fan said: “After reading everyone’s assumptions I’m starting to get the impression that it could be Andrea, Jamie or possibly Kim that kills Graham. Charity being the prime suspect ofc as he is somehow involved in Noah's drug overdose BUT NOT ACTUALLY HER.”

Andrea Tate

It's safe to say that Andrea would love Graham to take the secret of their one-night stand to his grave.

If he revealed the truth, it would shatter her attempt at happy families with Jamie and Millie, and she's likely to go to desperate lengths to stop him.

Jamie Tate

When Jamie berated Graham for betraying his mum, the former butler called him a hypocrite and revealed to Kim that Jamie was responsible for sending her to prison.

Jamie was furious with Graham for lashing out at his mother in such a way.

And he’s likely to reach boiling point if it’s revealed that Graham slept with his wife Andrea.

Jamie has no clue he might not be Millie’s father, and such a revelation would put Jamie on the warpath - with Graham in the firing line.

Al Chapman

Al took a fancy to Kim when he first arrived in the village this summer.

But for a romance to be on the cards, Al would have to dispose of Graham once and for all...

Could the love rival be the one to finish the businessman off?

Marlon Dingle

Marlon has been against Graham ever since Rhona revealed she’d let him into her life.

He lashed out at the former butler recently after worrying about Graham’s involvement with his son Leo.

Could the protective former lover cause baddy Graham's downfall?

A figure from Graham’s past

Emmerdale fans know that Graham has a dark side.

Before arriving on the farm, the former soldier was involved in the death of his wife and child while drink driving.

With details of his past being sketchy, who knows how many enemies Graham has from his past and which of those might come back to haunt him...

What has Emmerdale said about Graham's exit?

Producer Laura Shaw said: “Graham’s murder will form part of an unmissable week of drama packed full of exciting twists and turns.

“It’s always exciting to step outside of our usual story-telling style and viewers will be on the edge of their seats as some of our villagers have their lives irrevocably changed forever.

“Graham has been a huge character at the heart of some of our biggest storylines so it felt only fitting that he left us with an enormous, explosive baby to kick off what promises to be a massive year of drama for Emmerdale.”
