Faye Lamb is a fictional character from the British ITV soap opera Emmerdale, played by Kim Thomson.

The character was first introduced to Emmerdale by then-series producer Gavin Blyth in March 2009, played by Kim Thomson.

Speaking of her decision to bow out, Thomson said "I'm sad of course because I've loved working with everyone here, but I found it so hard being away from home.

Faye is first spotted by Mark pulling out of Home Farm and he is worried that she is responsible for his son Will's disappearance.

Faye rings Natasha, declining the job and worries Mark again when she takes a picture of the Wylde family from Home Farm, smashing a vase in the process.

Faye confronts Mark, revealing that his real name is Daniel Lamb and he is, in fact, married to her, making his marriage to Natasha bigamous.

The next day, Faye attends the vow renewal ceremony, telling Mark that she only kept the truth about him to herself because she did not want to hurt Natasha or his children.

In late June, Natasha discovers that Mark has bought a flat and, on investigating, finds Faye.

When Faye continues to contact Mark, Natasha offers her a large financial settlement to leave or face being reported for insurance fraud.

They plan to run away together but realising the pain they will cause, change their minds and share a goodbye kiss, which Natasha witnesses.

Ryan is angry with Mark and Faye for lying to him and moves in with ex-girlfriend, Katie Sugden, until he can organise somewhere else.

In September, Faye, still adamant that her son is innocent, forms an alliance with Natasha's business partner and former boyfriend Declan Macey to try to bring down the Wyldes.

In October, Ryan is found guilty of Mark's murder but Faye remains convinced of his innocence and becomes increasingly frustrated with Cain, Ryan's boss, who believes Nathan is guilty but will not go to the police for fear of incriminating himself, having previously blackmailed Nathan and Natasha.

Natasha is sentenced to life imprisonment and ordered to serve a minimum term of 21 years before being considered for parole.

Faye is fired from her job by Jai after slapping him, after he goads and insults her over her jealousy of Charity, and threatens to sue the firm for unfair dismissal.
