But fans won't have to wait too long to get their fix as Emmerdale returns tomorrow night, Thursday December 29, with another hour-long episode at 7pm. The Dingles drama will continue as Cain is still locked up for a crime he did not commit and his estranged brother has made a return to the village.

In earlier episodes, Cain admitted to his partner Moira Barton he had a long-lost brother who had visited him in prison. He explained Caleb had written him letters in prison when he found out their mother Faith Dingle had died.
