Brunt, who had limited television experience at the time with appearances in shows like The Bill and Inspector Morse, impressed producers enough during the process to secure the part, leading to his permanent integration into the cast later that year after an initial run from February to May. Paddy Kirk made his debut in the episode aired on 20 February 1997, arriving in the fictional village of Emmerdale as the new temporary vet and quickly establishing his nervous yet affable persona while treating local animals.

His early portrayal emphasized comic relief through awkward mishaps, such as an initial fear of dogs that highlighted his gentle, non-confrontational nature and established him as a light-hearted side character often involved in humorous village antics. Over the subsequent decades, scriptwriters evolved Paddy from this peripheral comic figure into a central family man, integrating deeper explorations of his moral compass and personal vulnerabilities to reflect ongoing character development. A key shift occurred in 2019 with the introduction of his father, Bear Wolf, which delved into Paddy's Irish heritage and familial roots, adding layers to his ethical decision-making and sense of loyalty within the Dingle family dynamic.
