For the fourth time since the start of October, Emmerdale killed off another major character on Tuesday night.
Viewers had been left on the edge of their seat on Monday after Al Chapman and Cain Dingle brawled in an empty barn, leaping for a shotgun before we heard a bullet go off.
The cliffhanger was solved at the start of Tuesday's episode when we saw Al spread eagled in the hay and Cain panicking.
