The character originally appeared between 1996 and 1999, and was first introduced as the former university friend of Joe Tate's (Ned Porteous) mother Rachel Hughes (Glenda McKay).
Steve hoped that he could flee the country before the police caught up with him, though at the airport, he was arrested for theft and attempted murder.
He later discovered that Kim was trying to frame him for their conspiracy plan and a vicious feud emerged. At the trial, Steve pleaded guilty, though Kim was insistent that she played no part in the crimes. She then left the village in a helicopter the night before the verdict was delivered, and it was announced without her being there.
In today's (2 November) episode, Steve's name was uttered for the first time in decades. DS Thea Ramsden (Chelsea Edge) wanted answers about her biological paternity, and Kim revealed that her dad is none other than Steve.
Forthcoming scenes will see Thea attempt to track her father down, though with only his name as a clue, it could be a difficult search. She has no idea whether he even knows that she exists, given Kim gave her up for adoption following his imprisonment.
The ITV soap has confirmed that a romantic reunion with Kim is "out of the question", however.
Speaking of his epic return, Opacic said: "Things were left rather bitter between Kim and Steve, so he's very surprised when a solicitor contacts him out of the blue. He guesses something is afoot when Kim starts brandishing notes to keep him away.
Emmerdale producer Laura Shaw added: "Determined to uncover the truth about her father, Thea devises a clever ruse to lure him into a meeting under false pretences.
