Emmerdale’s Andrew Scarborough begs soap bosses for no more miserable murder storylines for Graham Foster – so he can get a haircut

EMMERDALE star Andrew Scarborough has begged soap bosses to give him a happier storyline – so he can get a haircut.

The actor – who plays badboy Graham Foster in the hit show – says he has started to resemble 1970s snooker legend Ray Reardon.

And he’s hoping his onscreen love interest – played by actress Gaynor Faye – will help straighten out his character so he can finally get a makeover.

He said: “I think she could change him. He could become happier, that would help.

“She could get him to have a proper haircut and not look like Ray Reardon from the 70s, and less like Dracula or an undertaker.

“So he could be a lot happier.

“That is a real, solid, honest relationship. Whereas the one with Kim Tate is fraught, it’s a strange relationship where they care for each other, but there’s a lot of distrust, and a lot of status games going on.

“Megan was the first proper, honest relationship he’s had for quite a while. Well, it turned out he cheated but I think he genuinely was very fond of her.

“I think they’re good together as well.”

Andrew also revealed that fans keep asking him why he never smiles.

He said: “I get two questions – did you kill Joe? And why don’t you smile?”

Next week Graham will tell the police that Joe is alive in an effort to protect him from Kim Tate after she threatens to murder her step-grandson again in an effort to frame Cain Dingle for the crime properly.

Andrew recently told The Sun Online: “I always knew Joe was still alive and was getting tired of being asked all the time, and being accused of murder!

“Kim ordered Graham to bump off Joe but when Cain thought he’d killed him, Graham saw an opportunity to cover up his own cover up.

“He let Joe go, but when you saw Graham with the gun it was to protect him so he could get away safely, but he reckoned if Kim returned she might hear on the grapevine Cain was up for murdering Joe to deflect attention from Graham.”
