Although Bradley’s voice comes as a shock to many fans, it’s no secret he’s very talented.

Before being cast in Emmerdale, Bradley appeared on BBC talent show Let It Shine in 2017.

Bradford-born Bradley performed Bring Him Home from the musical Les Miserables in front of judges Dannii Minogue, Martin Kemp, Gary Barlow and Amber Riley.

He told the panel he had been singing since he was five and received a stand ovation after his moving performance.

Who is Vinny in Emmerdale?

Although Bradley has played Vinny for a year, viewers have only just learnt his back story.

A couple of months ago it was revealed Vinny isn’t Mandy Dingle’s son.

Starting to feel guilty lying to the Dingles about being blood related, he told Sam, Lydia and Samson that he’s not technically Mandy’s son.

Mandy told her family how she first met Vinny when he was nine months old, as she went on a first date with Vinny’s dad Paul.

She moved in with Paul very quickly and they were all happy for a few years.

However Paul eventually left them, leaving Mandy with the tough choice to either put Vinny in care or raise him as her own.

She made the decision to look after Vinny, however she couldn’t legally adopt him.

Sam soon accepted Vinny as a Dingle and welcomed him to the family.
