Emmerdale spoilers: Will Moira Dingle stand-by 'killer' Cain Dingle?
Despite their massive marriage bust-up, Moira is afraid for Cain following his arrest for the murder of his daughter Debbie's fiance Joe Tate.
Moira Dingle may have moved back into Butler's Farm after her husband Cain's violent meltdown in which he trashed the kitchen and lashed out at her. But that doesn't mean she's ready to forgive and forget.
Or does it?
Moira's son Matty Barton is worried when it looks like she's going to stand by her man, despite Cain throwing himself at his ex Charity Dingle and his shock arrest at The Woolpack over the disappearance and death of his daughter Debbie's fiance Joe Tate last year.
As Moira calls for an update on Cain following the arrest, will she put aside all the recent trouble and focus on showing her support for the man she loves?
Meanwhile, it's time for cash-strapped Bob Hope to move on again. Having been booted out of the village B&B after failing to pay his bill, he secretly kipped in the cellar at The Woolpack and then slept rough in the back of his ex-wife Brenda's car.
But with barely a penny to his name, the fallen ex-cafe owner is forced to take a sleeping bag and sleep rough on a bench down by the river. Can things get any worse for poor Bob?
Elsewhere in the village, Victoria Sugden is getting bored of all the bickering between her boyfriend Ellis Chapman and his fresh-out-of-prison brother Billy Fletcher.
However, chef Victoria has a plan to lock them in the Portakabin together to settle their differences. Unfortunately Victoria's plan takes a terrible turn...
Emmerdale continues weeknights at 7:00pm on ITV
