Biography

Eric Pollard is a fictional character from the British ITV soap opera Emmerdale, played by Chris Chittell. He made his first appearance in the soap on 30 September 1986. Having appeared continuously since, he is currently the longest-serving actor and the longest-serving character in the history of the soap. The character originally served as the show's villain, but this has been noticeably toned down in recent years, particularly since Eric's marriage to Val Lambert (Charlie Hardwick) and the introduction of his long-lost son, David Metcalfe (Matthew Wolfenden). Originally introduced for a 12 episode stint, Eric became a popular character amongst viewers for his villainous ways and mistreatment of others, and was promoted to a regular character. He has been married six times: to Eileen Pollock (Arbel Jones) in 1964; Elizabeth Feldmann (Kate Dove) in 1992, although the marriage was bigamous; Dee de la Cruz (Claudia Malkovich) in 1997; Gloria Weaver (Janice McKenzie) in 2002; Val in 2008; and Kerry Wyatt (Laura Norton) in 2025.
