We know he will check himself into hospital, but will it be enough to help him? And despite Paddy’s optimism that Bear will get off with a suspended sentence, could he actually be facing time inside? Everything is getting too much for Cain (Credit: ITV) 2. Cain’s cancer fight We have seen Cain find out he is battling aggressive prostate cancer. He needs a radical prostatectomy and that surgery could have serious side-effects including incontinence and erectile dysfunction. Sarah is supporting him, but Cain has failed to tell Moira the truth. As Cain struggles to face up to the future, he has a huge journey ahead of him. Actor Jeff Hordley told The Mirror: “Everything is falling to pieces and he doesn’t deal with his diagnosis at all well. Cain has never found it easy to talk about his feelings anyway but after learning of his diagnosis, he snaps at everyone. “He worries that if he tells anyone and with Moira in prison, nobody will be around to look after their children. He is terrified he is going to die.” Will Cain find the courage to deal with this? Moira didn’t do this (Credit: ITV) 3. ‘Make or break’ for Moira and Cain As well as Cain facing his own mortality, he could be heading for a marriage crisis too. In an interview with Metro.co.uk Jeff warned he doesn’t know what the future holds for Cain and Moira. “I think that’s what’s good about this story, for Cain and Moira. There’s a series of obstacles and hurdles that lay in front of them that I think are really going to challenge them as a couple. “As to whether it makes or breaks them, I don’t think I even know just yet but it’s going to be really interesting to see.” Show boss Laura Shaw also hinted things will be complicated for Moira and Cain. “Their complex marriage will be tested as they face dark times,” she said. However in a recent interview with The Mirror, Jeff gave hope as he talked about how strong their love is. “Cain is told surgery could make him incontinent and/or he could have an erectile dysfunction afterwards. For some men, this can be short term but for others, it is forever. “What if Moira won’t want him? This will be a story about how ultimately their love for each other is so strong.” Sounds encouraging. Let’s just hope it is. Both Bear and Paddy aren’t coping (Credit: ITV) 3.

We thought we might get answers last week when Joe asked Graham why he had returned now. Graham replied that he knew he couldn’t just walk away when he saw Joe in the hospital on the night of the Corriedale crash. But when Joe then pressed him as to what he was doing there, Graham refused to explain why he was at the hospital in the first place. He swiftly changed the subject and it was forgotten.

But she will not be successful in keeping her secret forever. “The truth surrounding Charity’s pregnancy is set to blow wide open,” Laura teased. “Mackenzie mistakenly believes he could be the baby’s father, but the secret that Ross is the real father is still under wraps. “With the baby due in spring, the birth may be the event that finally exposes all of Charity’s secrets…” Dr Todd is returning to Emmerdale (Credit: ITV) 6.

It’s a hot topic at the moment with Kammy. Everyone is always asking me: ‘When do we get to learn more about him and understand what’s happening?'” Shebz admitted he has spent the last lot of months in meetings with producers and writers, trying to come up with a worthy backstory. And finally, they have one, and even Shebz didn’t “imagine” what it was. He said: “Honestly, it was a mixture of emotions when I found out. There was a lot of relief, there was happiness.
