Emmerdale's Danny Miller hopes Aaron and Mack get into more trouble
The pair have had a blossoming friendship in recent months.
Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller) and Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) have forged something of a double act on Emmerdale in recent years – and it looks like their friendship is going to continue to blossom in the future.
Appearing at the RadioTimes.com Soap Awards 2024 sponsored by Inspired Villages on Saturday evening, the pair were asked if they'd be getting into a bit more trouble as time goes by, and they definitely seemed open to that idea.
"I hope so," said Miller. "I love working with him. And I know he's here – it sounds weird that I'm saying it 'cause he's here – but I do love working with him. So hopefully, the more the merrier.
"But no, it's great," he added. "And it takes a... it adds a bit of lightness to the show, it adds a bit of lightness to our characters. I think we've been through quite a lot of stuff, you know, separately, character wise. So it's nice to do a bit of a... have a bit of a laugh and enjoy it."
Robb added: "We always tend to find the humour in the scenes and that's... it's great fun. It's nice for a wee bit of comic relief. We enjoy it."

Miller returned to play Aaron towards the end of 2023 after an absence of almost a year – with his surprise return earning a nomination for Best Twist at the RadioTimes.com Soap Awards.
And despite a rocky start for the character following his re-arrival, he's since rebuilt several of his key relationships to the point that Miller believes the 'real' Aaron is back once again.
"[Viewers] didn't like me for the first three or four months," he said. "It kind of made me think was I doing a bad job of acting. But it wasn't, it was the story. I can only act out what's on the page.
"It was a different way of bringing him back in. Obviously, I've been away a couple of times, so I think they wanted to bring a different sort of edge to Aaron and a different version of Aaron.
"So it's nice to play it for a little while, but I'm happy playing the real Aaron."
