Emmerdale Spoilers 05 - 09 December 2011

Emmerdale star Jeff Hordley has praised the soap's upcoming Cain Dingle whodunit, hailing it as his best storyline yet.

Show bosses recently announced that Cain will be brutally attacked and left for dead next month when one of his many enemies decides to take the ultimate revenge.

John and Moira Barton, Charity Tate, Jai Sharma, Amy Wyatt and Zak Dingle have been named as the main six characters who will be suspects in the case.

Hordley told All About Soap of the storyline: "This is the whole reason I want to be in Emmerdale. I've had some great stories in the past, but this feels like the biggest and most special yet. I just hope that Cain survives."

The actor continued: "He's burnt all his bridges with his loved ones. Debbie's found out that he's the father of Amy's baby, and she's so disgusted with him that she throws him out of the house. There's no shortage of villagers who are baying for Cain's blood."

Hordley also revealed that Cain may show some remorse over his treatment of Amy (Chelsea Halfpenny) in the build-up to his attack. The troubled teen gives birth to Cain's baby boy in next week's episodes.

"I think that [when] Amy has given birth, we'll start to see a flicker of regret from Cain over his baby boy," he said. "Maybe he really does have a heart after all!"

Coming up in Emmerdale, hatred of Cain Dingle grows in the village in the build-up to the whodunnit storyline which will see him brutally attacked and left for dead.

When Debbie discovers that Cain (Jeff Hordley) is the father of Amy's baby, she is appalled by his behaviour and kicks him out. Licking his wounds when Debbie finally manages to get rid of him, Cain heads to the pub looking for a place to stay - remarking that Moira is usually happy to share her bed.

Furious over Cain's antics, John follows him out of the pub, where the village's bad boy continues to taunt him by making derogatory comments about sleeping with Moira (Natalie J Robb).

John (James Thornton) is soon unable to keep a lid on his temper for any longer and punches Cain in the face. Moira pulls a fuming John back, but could the farmer be tempted to take the ultimate revenge? Or will another villager be responsible for the brutal attack on Cain?

These scenes air on Thursday, December 8 at 8pm on ITV1.

True.

Monday

Val and Pollard are keen to make things right with Amy, while the police want to interview her as soon as she is well enough. The doctor declares that Amy is fine to go home, but her baby boy will be kept in hospital for a few weeks. Val, Pollard and Amy visit the baby, but Val and Pollard are stunned when Amy says that she's not keeping him. Once at home, Val is troubled over Amy's plans and is determined to make her change her mind, but Pollard's not so sure Amy will.

Soon afterwards, Amy is horrified to discover that Zak knows Cain is the father. Zak reassures Amy that he won't let Cain hurt her, but Amy insists she will be having the baby adopted. Amy realises she will have to come clean about Cain to Val and Pollard, and she's surprised when they admit they are there for her and the baby no matter what.

Meanwhile, Sam and Marlon discuss the baby that Hazel found, and Marlon is gobsmacked when Sam reveals that it's Cain's baby. Belle tells Cain that Zak and Lisa know he's the father and Cain intimidates her by telling her she's just a stupid kid. Zak controls his anger with Cain but is devastated by what he's done.

Elsewhere, Marlon gives Moira a key for the house, while Alex is concerned when Adam says that Cain needs to be taught a lesson.

Tuesday

Cain menacingly threatens Amy, making it clear that he will tell Debbie in his own time and he doesn't want her hearing about it from anyone else. Val and Pollard are furious to see Cain confronting Amy and step in to help. Just as Lisa and Zak are about to leave for the hospital, they see Debbie. Realising Debbie doesn't yet know, Lisa and Zak explain about Cain being the father. Debbie is horrified, and she's soon shocked further when Charity explains what Cain has been doing to the Sharmas.

Later, when Cain comes home, Debbie confronts him - asking when he was going to tell her. She warns him that she's had enough and wants him out. Cameron returns and Debbie is forced to step in to stop Cain going for Cameron. When Cain refuses to move out, Debbie and Cameron leave the house, making it clear to Cain that it's over - they are finished as a family.

Meanwhile, no-one else in the village has a good word to say about Cain. John is furious to hear that Cain has upset Hannah and threatens that if he ever speaks to his kids again, he will do his worst. When Moira hears that Cain has upset Hannah, she too is filled with hate. Even Eric Pollard is furious with Cain for what he has put Amy through, wanting to make him pay.

Elsewhere, Val is determined to convince Amy to keep the baby, while Hazel offers reassuring words to Amy about the baby.

Wednesday

Debbie and Cameron are exasperated as Cain is still sitting tight at Tug Ghyll. Later, in the village, Cain questions Charity over what she said to Debbie, but Charity can't believe that Cain couldn't see Debbie's reaction coming. Debbie and Lisa are wary when Zak heads off to find Cain to speak to him about seeing the baby. When Zak brings up Charity, Cain lashes out in rage - throwing a spanner at Zak.

At the same time, unable to take any more, Jai splits with Charity - believing it's the only solution to end the troubles with Cain, while Priya marches into the pub and confronts Cain for lying to her. Soon afterwards, things get heated when Rishi confronts Cain outside the pub and Georgia has to intervene. Both Georgia and Rishi are left scared and angry when Cain threatens them. When Jai hears Cain has threatened his parents again, he calls the police.

Later, Zak and Lisa are at the end of their tether when Charity turns up with her suitcases - she's moving in with Noah. Cain soon approaches Charity outside and tells her that he loves her, leaving Charity feeling sickened.

Elsewhere, Val, Pollard and Amy unite as they promise a future with no secrets; Moira and Hannah are thrown by the news of Cain's baby; while Chas suggests that Cameron should front up to Cain when he complains about him in the pub.

Thursday

Cain is arrested for threatening the Sharmas and is led to a police car. Debbie can't believe his blasé attitude when he waves at Sarah as they drive off. PC Stewart arrives at the Dingles' wanting to talk to Lisa, and the family are shocked when Zak volunteers to co-operate with the police. However, Cain soon arrives back in the village as the police had no evidence. Debbie is incredulous at his high spirits and is angered it has caused Charity to lose her home.

Later, Zak pleads to Cain, ashamed to be part of the same family, but Cain mocks him and shrugs it off. John is fuming when Cain enters the pub, but when Cain tries to buy a drink, everybody threatens to leave if Chas serves him. Chas is apologetic but refuses Cain a drink, saying democracy rules. Cain eyeballs each customer, insulting them one by one.

Meanwhile, Jai fumes when he learns that the police have released Cain. Charity enters the factory full of purpose and tells Jai that splitting up over Cain is stupid. She begs Jai not to let Cain ruin what they had. Jai is intrigued by her threat to do whatever it takes to stop Cain as she reminds him how much she loves him.

Elsewhere, Amy's bond with Victoria returns but she's devastated when Belle refuses to forgive her, while Hazel visits Declan and offers her support.

Friday

Debbie packs Cain's bag and insists he moves out. Cain storms off to the pub, where he starts making derogatory comments about Moira. Outside, John hits him in the face. Moira pulls John back as he tries to kick Cain on the floor, but Cain reacts and knees John to the ground before pushing Moira down when she flies at him.

Later, Cain confronts Amy on the street and becomes abusive and intimidating, telling her that she belongs in the gutter. Amy is incensed. Soon afterwards, Pearl spots Jai suspiciously hanging around at the garage in the darkness but he covers, pretending he is looking for a new car.

On the outskirts of the village, Cain hears footsteps behind him and stops but before he turns, he is struck hard on the back of his legs with a metal object and falls to the ground. Through his pain, he clearly recognises his attacker. Badly beaten, Cain tries to get up but collapses.

Adam goes looking for John and sees him walking down the road alone. He insists he gets in the car and sees blood on John's hand. At the same time, Moira is in a terrible state as she returns back to Marlon's, getting herself a stiff drink before heading upstairs to avoid Marlon's questioning. Over at the pub, Charity is jittery and agitated as she enters, demanding a whisky from Chas.

Soon afterwards, Cameron is driving when he spots Jai standing over Cain's lifeless body at the side of the road. Clearly shaken, Jai claims he found Cain in this state. Fearing Cain is dead, Cameron calls an ambulance and is shocked as Jai quickly leaves the scene.
