Someone should lock up the actress who plays the female copper. For crimes against the acting profession. She is diabolical. And as for the male copper, I remember him from early doors and keep waiting for him to say "Crime don't crack itself!"

Wouldn't it be great if he did say thatQuote:

Emmerdale's Zak Dingle has been revealed as his son Cain's attacker, bringing the soap's month-long mystery storyline to a climax.
Zak, played by Steve Halliwell, spoke candidly about his brutal act as he had a showdown with Cain in tonight's (Thursday's) double bill of the show.
Realising that he couldn't let Jai Sharma (Chris Bisson) take the blame for his crime, Zak paid a visit to Cain (Jeff Hordley) and urged him to stop lying to the police.
Zak said: "You know damn well that it wasn't Jai. Because you know damn well it were me!"
Explaining his motive, Zak confirmed that he was appalled after seeing Cain destroy so many lives in the village - especially with his mistreatment of troubled teen Amy Wyatt (Chelsea Halfpenny) after getting her pregnant.
Zak raged: "You've always done damage. And I've turned a blind eye, I know I have. But this has been something new. How many lives is it that you want to ruin?
"That girl gave birth all alone in a graveyard. She could have died - the baby nearly did. All because you had her scared witless."
Emmerdale bosses also ended the episode with a cliffhanger as Zak vowed to hand himself into the police if Cain refused to clear Jai's name - leaving viewers to wonder what the village's bad boy will do next.
Zak told his wayward son: "I think you're going to walk into that cop shop and you're going to tell them what's what. Because if you don't, you're going to force me to. And I'll do it son, I will.
"Because I reckon, it'd be easier for me to spend the rest of my life in prison than it would be for you on the outside - with everyone that you care about knowing that you're a coward.
"And they will know - I'll make sure of that. If it's the last thing I do as a free man, I'll make sure everyone knows what you are!"
Emmerdale continues tomorrow at 7pm on ITV1.
drat I was wrong again. However the scenes after Zak admitted it couldn't really be anyone else. This has come from a long built up pile of resentment on both sides. The truth does hurt and what they said to each other words wounded more than any weapon could.
I thought it would be Eric. For a while there I was expecting it to look like it was Zak before it was revealed to be someone else.
I knew it!
He's just been really off ever since it happened, glad to be right for a change
Wonder what will happen now
And Zak cant go to prison, he cant leave! wonder how they will get him out of this one
brilliant ep. well acted by all.
I don't think the truth will come out yet. Cain will tell the police that he doesn't know who hit him clearing Jai for the time-being but the Dingles will find out but keep it in the family, maybe some time later in the year it will all come out.Quote:

Too right. Jeff did some great acting last night.Quote:

Fans were kept guessing for weeks about the identity of the attacker — with many suspecting his ex Charity Tate and her fiancé Jai Sharma.
So Steve was stunned when bosses told him he would have to confess on screen to the violent attack on Cain, played by Jeff Hordley.
He said: "I was surprised but glad because I've been quiet on-screen lately.
"But you can't get more involved than that — almost killing your own son. So I was pleased there was going to be real drama to do."

Well done to Jeff and SteveQuote:

One scene doesn't make an outstanding actor or actress and apart from last night both Zak and Cain's storylines have been pretty lame for years with Zak being the layabout and Cain being the bully, apart from Lisa's rape last year they haven't done a lot.
Looks like Zak is going to hand himself in
Anyone else think Chas and John Barton are going to get together at some stage?
Hope notQuote:

What was the point?
Gave Zak another reason to beat up Cain. Gave Val another reason to get drunkQuote:

An interesting viewpoint and I have to agree.Quote:
