Emmerdale star Daisy Campbell was 'shocked' when police stopped her on a birthday night out - but they were just big fans desperate for a photo with the star.

The actress, who plays Amelia Spencer in the long-running ITV soap, was celebrating her 19th birthday on a night out in her hometown Pontefract when she was approached by two officers.

A spokesperson for West Yorkshire Police said: “When two of our officers, who just so happen to both be big fans of Emmerdale saw Amelia Spencer from the soap it was only natural for them to become ‘fanboys’ and ask for a photo with her. ” The spokesperson added: “Officers Morgan and Riley were out on night time economy patrols of Pontefract town centre on Saturday night when they spoke with the actress named Daisy Campbell, who was out with her friends celebrating her recent 19th birthday. “After initially appearing shocked that the police wanted to speak with her, she soon relaxed when they told her why.

Daisy has been at the centre of various storylines recently including body image and most recently a shock pregnancy, which she and her co-star Liam Fox, who plays her on screen father Dan Spencer actually pitched the idea to the producers themselves.
