Emmerdale fans were surprised by scenes just minutes into Thursday's episode.
Nicola was seen for the first time in a few months, with viewers shown her husband Jimmy trying to romance her in their kitchen. As Jimmy said: "Why are you so dressed up?" Jimmy replied: "Because people give me funny looks when I go out in my knickers".
Jimmy said he would give her "more than a look" before announcing he had made brunch. He said: "I thought I'd take advantage of your dad having the kids".
