The following is a list of characters that first appeared in the British soap opera Emmerdale in 2006, by order of first appearance.

Samson John Dingle is the son of Sam (James Hooton) and Alice Dingle (Ursula Holden-Gill). He has appeared since 2006.

After discovering she is pregnant, Alice falls ill with cancer. She is advised to terminate the pregnancy to start chemotherapy immediately, but she refuses to abort. She gives birth prematurely and the baby is named Samson. He is rushed to intensive care before Alice gets a chance to bond with him. After stopping the chemotherapy because it is not working, Alice dies on 31 July 2006.

After Alice's death, Sam vows to bring up Samson on his own and moves into his own cottage. However, he finds it difficult to cope and someone calls social services. He wants to continue bringing up Samson on his own. On 15 January 2008, Samson is knocked down by Val Lambert (Charlie Hardwick) in her jeep. He soon recovers, but Sam goes on the run with Samson because he is worried he will be taken away from him. An arrangement is later made and Sam is allowed to keep Samson. He later moves back in with his family.

Vonda Lockhart (previously Hope) is Bob Hope's (Tony Audenshaw) third wife. She appeared in 2006 and 2007.

Bob and Vonda, a show dancer in Las Vegas, met in 1994 on a cruise and drunkly got married aboard the ship. They divorced after the cruise. Unknown to Bob, Vonda fell pregnant and gave birth to Roxy (Chloe Procter), his fifth child.

In 2006, when Bob is planning to remarry Viv (Deena Payne) she wants to have all of his children there. They find out about Roxy, and she and Vonda come to the village for the wedding. In 2007, Vonda and Roxy return to the village when the former is doing a tour of Northern England decides that Roxy should spend some time with Bob.
