Emmerdale star facing assault charge

Emmerdale actor Luke Tittensor is due in court on Monday to answer a charge of grievous bodily harm, according to the papers.

The News Of The World reports that the 18-year-old - who plays Daz Eden in the soap - is alleged to have broken another man's jaw, following an incident in Rochdale, Lancashire.

And there are claims he could face up to five years in jail if he is found guilty.

"Luke is very worried," a source told the paper. If he’s found guilty then it could have serious repercussions for his career."

"He’s been in Emmerdale for five years and has worked his way up from child actor to one of the biggest stars in the show. He’s petrified of losing what he’s worked so hard to achieve."

Tittensor will appear before magistrates in Rochdale.

He is the second Emmerdale star to land in court in recent months - his co-star Cleveland Campbell, who plays Danny Daggert in the soap, was cleared of GBH earlier this year.
