Emmerdale fans think they have spotted a major plot hole when it comes to Caleb Milligan's latest storyline as he made a decision over whether to confess to knowing who pushed him and left him for dead.
Last week, viewers of the ITV soap watched Caleb, played by Will Ash, tumbling off a woodland ridge after being pushed by a mystery assailant. However, the mystery didn't stay a mystery for long as during an earlier trip to the Dales this week, it was revealed that it was Caleb's son Nicky who pushed his dad.
Caleb, after being found by my half-brother Cain while on a dog walk, has spent the last few days in an induced coma in the hospital after being found sprawled out on the ground in the woods. After fears he could die, Caleb has come back fighting as he emerged from his induced coma.

And during Thursday night's trip to the Dales (June 22), Caleb was back home. Joined by his son, Nicky, played by Lewis Cope, the former Home Farm nanny told his dad he was going to confess to the police and was prepared to go to prison after Caleb threatened to tell the police it was Cain.
When the police came to visit Caleb, he appeared as though he was about to give someone else's name when Nicky went to step in. However, his dad stopped him and Caleb told officers: "It wasn't Mackenzie. I looked around it must have been a deer or something. I think I just lost my footing."
But covering for his son didn't fix their broken relationship as Nicky said: "You've destroyed me. I've ruined Gabby's life and I've lost Ally. I will happily tell the truth, part of me wishes you never woken up. The blackmail, the games, I'm done dad, we're done." He later left before returning, seeming to have a change of heart about fixing things with his dad.
However, Emmerdale fans were busy rushing to social media to comment as they appeared to spot a problem with Caleb already seeming better after his accident while also moving into Mill Cottage after being sold the property by Vinny Dingle.
@MichZiff tweeted: "In what parallel universe am I living in when you can recover from a serious fall, been in a coma for days, wake up full of the joys of spring, bounce out of hospital AND move into a new house all in the space of 3 days. #Emmerdale." @Zombiechick1967 said: "I mean Caleb went to the village to rip off Kim cos he had no money, none at all so where the fuck has he got it from for the house & furniture? The secret money tree again #Emmerdale."
@CaroleAnn1982 posted: "Where has Caleb got money from to buy a house and furnish it, he hadn't got a pot to pee in the other week #confused #emmerdale." @cassam101 asked: "How did caleb get moved in so quickly if he's been in hospital ? Is that a new sofa ? Thought he had no money. #emmerdale."
@MegWarr09285908 echoed: "When did Caleb have time to buy a new sofa? #emmerdale." @funkygibbons quipped: "'When you were 2 you were in hospital, you were going to die…then we heard about this place where miracles happen called Hotten General' #emmerdale." @fussyMcWhiskers added: "#emmerdale Caleb, head injuries, induced coma - now out of hospital walking around Dingledale."
Others though were distracted when Kyle Winchester paid Caleb a visit. With a box of chocolates in hand, the youngster showed his support for his uncle, who helped him avoid prison after confessing to accidentally killing Al Chapman, and gave him some advice on the Dingle clan, telling him not to give up on Cain.
And the heart-to-heart appeared to melt viewers' own hearts. @KellyBlackx tweeted: "Omg Kyle, you are just adorable! #Emmerdale." @Dbella91 said: "Kyle the voice of reason. God bless him.. we aren’t friends.. we are family #Emmerdale@PinkWyldflower posted: "Kyle is such a sweetheart. #Emmerdale." @fussyMcWhiskers joked: "#emmerdale Kyle is so cute. I hope he hasn't brought his shooter, though." Dawn Carter added on Facebook: "Love Kyle. A wonderful actor."
