Emmerdale fans are soon to be treated to a special episode where they will see a younger version of soap icon Cain Dingle.

Jane explained: “When Caleb visits Cain in prison we will discover Cain knew Caleb exists and he’s known about him for 30 years and on Boxing Day we will rewind to 1992 and we will discover how Cain and Caleb first met.
