Anthony actor has left Emmerdale and returned to the stage Exit, stage left for Anthony Anthony Fox Anthony is Murdered Emmerdale Nicholas Day Share By Joel Harley Jan 24 2025 By Joel Harley Jan 24 2025 Last night’s episode of Emmerdale saw Anthony killed in retribution for his abuse of daughter Ruby – marking an exit from the soap for actor Nicholas Day. Anthony copped a vicious beating after provoking Aaron Dingle, his abuse of Ruby bringing back some painful memories for the young mechanic. Deciding he’d rather be dead than behind bars, Anthony’s venom scored him a brutal beating, leaving him broken and bleeding on the floor of the depot. Returning to the scene of the crime, Aaron and John found that Anthony had died in the interim, leaving Aaron holding the bag, and with a body to clean up for John. Anthony’s story is far from done, but Nicholas Day’s time in the soap seems done. But where is Nicholas now?

We were very lucky to have an actor of his calibre and talent playing my father, Anthony, in Emmerdale.” She continued: “It wasn’t an easy role for anyone to take on and he found playing this person extremely challenging. I loved working with Nick, we all did. It was an emotional experience requiring a lot of trust and a lot of love. He’s a gem.” She finished with a plea for viewers to be kind… and not mistake fiction for reality. “If you see him in the street please remember he’s NOT Anthony. I’m sure you all will – so forgive me for sounding patronising – I just wanted to say. Sometimes, as actors, we need a little bit of protection when we put ourselves out there telling difficult stories that need to be told.” Read more: Who’s leaving Emmerdale in 2025?
