Many viewers had previously speculated that it was Cain who had killed Al after finding out about the affair with Chas. Some even went as far as to claim it was Aaron Dingle who had pulled the trigger.

However, fans have since been shown the moment Al died in eerie flashback scenes. New ITV spoilers have now revealed how Chas will struggle to keep it together during next week's episodes.

In later scenes, Kerry finds support from Chas of all people, who – with a guilty conscience – encourages her to make a big decision. Could the truth of Chas and Al’s affair be on the verge of being revealed to all?

Meanwhile, Cain's family was left shocked after he pleaded guilty during his court hearing. The judge warned him he would go to jail.

An angry Moira rushed to prison to demand an explanation from Cain. Cain urged her to keep Kyle away from other people.

He told her: "You can't let Kyle speak to anyone." When she asked why, he gave in and told her who had killed Al.

"Because it was him Moira. I didn't shoot Al, Kyle did," he said. After hearing the truth, she broke down in tears but Cain insisted that he was doing what was necessary to protect his son.

Cain told Moira that she needs to forget about him, however she refused and said she would never give up on him. Before she left, Cain pleaded with his wife to keep quiet over Kyle's killer secret.

Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV.
