Emmerdale's Cain Dingle hasn't been in prison long but soap fans are definitely missing him being in the village already.
The iconic character, played by Jeff Hordley, is banged up for a crime he didn't commit. He's set on taking the blame for the murder of Al Chapman, who was actually killed accidentally by Cain's son, Kyle.
The 10-year-old shot Al by accident, and Cain refuses to see his son's life "ruined" by the crime.

During Tuesday's episode, Cain was visited by Kyle's mum Amy, who told Cain their son had confessed to her. Cain's wife Moira is also in on the secret.
Cain told Amy to take Kyle and run away so he isn't tempted to confess to anyone else, but Moira was left reeling by the idea. She told Amy she "loves Kyle like her own" and said they can both raise him together, and that it is "for his own good" for him to be surrounded by family.
As the episode drew to a close, the two women both agreed to "bury" the secret and keep Kyle's name in the clear. But fans at home are predicting a completely different outcome.
Taking to Twitter, Sarah said: "[They said] this never gets out, so Kyle will be banged up by Monday then yeah?". Emily said: "Cain will be out of nick by December, Emmerdale bosses aren't soft". O said: "So if Moira and Amy agree that it never gets out that Kyle killed Al that means it will be all over the village and Brenda having the best gossip day ever within the next week"
However, Dan said: "Cain could go down for perverting the court of justice".
