Emmerdale fans couldn't help but make the same observation about Cain Dingle's prison stint as it is revealed that he's set for release. The character, played by Jeff Hordley, has been doing all he can to keep his son, Kyle, from being put behind bars as he took the blame for killing Al Chapman.
While fans of the ITV soap were initially led to believe that Cain had finally committed the ultimate crime and killed off Al in cold blood over his affair with sister Chas. However, a flashback episode later revealed that it was Kyle who was the one who really shot Al.
The panicked youngster caught the pair fighting and feared for his dad's life. And with the shotgun Cain had brought along set to one side, Kyle grabbed it and threatened Al. But as he was about to put the weapon down, Al lunged forward leading Kyle to stop back and set off the gun.
