Moira's birthday opens up a can of worms for her ex-husband Cain

Emmerdale's Cain Dingle stuffs up in Wednesday's episode on ITV from 7pm (see our TV Guide for full listings).

It's Moira's (Natalie J Robb) birthday and her boys want to mark the occasion so it obviously falls to Cain (Jeff Hordley) to sort it despite the fact they're in the throes of divorce. The farmer's face falls, however, when she opens up their card… What's clumsy Cain gone and done?

As Moira's day continues, Harriet (Katherine Dow Blyton) asks her to share the limelight at a party which Will (Dean Andrews) wants to throw to celebrate their engagement. Will the farmer agree?

Elsewhere, Mandy (Lisa Riley) rolls out her sting on Paul (Reece Dinsdale). He's shocked when he rocks up at Wishing Well only to find Mandy waiting for him rather than his 'pal' Vinny (Bradley Johnson).
