Sophie Powles originally from Cleethorpes, a seaside town in North East Lincolnshire, is an English actress best known for her role as Holly Barton in the ITV soap opera Emmerdale.
Powles has guest-starred in dramas such as Holby City and Dalziel and Pascoe before landing a role in the unsuccessful ITV drama series Britannia High. Her character Ronnie was the only one of the main cast who was not a student at the fictional school of performing arts. Ronnie was created especially for Powles, as all the main cast were already in place. On the 22 May 2009, it was announced that Powles was to join soap opera Emmerdale as Holly Barton. Powles dyed her natural blonde hair brown for the role.
On 15 January 2012, Susan Hill of the Daily Star announced Powles had quit her role as Holly and would be departing Emmerdale later in the year.
