'Emmerdale' Cain to face a backlash, says show boss Stuart Blackburn

Emmerdale's series producer Stuart Blackburn has hinted that Cain Dingle could face a backlash from a number of his fellow villagers in the coming weeks.

Cain's behaviour has spiralled out of control in recent months as he has made a number of jealous attempts to destroy Charity Tate's (Emma Atkins) new relationship with Jai Sharma (Chris Bisson).

The village bad boy has also terrorised troubled teen Amy Wyatt - unaware that she is still carrying his baby - as well as embarking on an affair with Moira Barton.

Blackburn told Inside Soap of Cain's future: "There will be a big showdown with Cain and the Sharmas - and pretty much the whole village, come to that!

"Cain has been running rampant for years, and aside from Debbie and Sarah, his one true love is Charity - so he'll do anything to stop her from marrying Jai. The storm clouds are gathering at the moment, and the big question heading towards Christmas is, has Cain gone too far this time?"




Amy (Chelsea Halfpenny) is currently keeping her pregnancy a secret from her loved ones and has vowed to have her baby put up for adoption.

Pondering whether she could change her mind, Blackburn added: "Amy has got this terrible secret to keep and as we get closer to Christmas, she will have to make the biggest decision of her life. We're heading for an emotional, heartbreaking and soul-searching time for her."

Natalie J Robb, who plays Moira, recently warned that Cain's bad behaviour could come back to haunt him if he carries on upsetting people in the village.

She said last week: "There's big storylines all around Cain coming up, leading up to Christmas. He's making a lot of people unhappy, put it that way, in the village. Bad repercussions are coming."

Emmerdale continues tonight at 7pm on ITV1.
