Emmerdale's Cain Dingle targets Will Taylor with a new revenge scheme next week.

Cain starts to hold a bitter grudge after Will steps in to block him from spending time with his young son Kyle Winchester.

The trouble kicks off when Amy Wyatt asks Will to look after Kyle for a while. Will is already taking care of his grandson Lucas, so he agrees to take the boys to the local playground.

When Cain spots them and heads over, Will sticks to Amy's strict orders that he needs to stay away from Kyle. This is part of Kyle's bail conditions in the Al Chapman murder case.

As Cain and Will clash over this, it's left to Amy to rush over and remind Cain about the importance of sticking to the rules.

The next day, Will faces a nightmare when Apollo – the new stud horse for Home Farm – escapes and charges down Main Street.

Will is unaware that Cain is responsible for letting Apollo loose, wanting revenge after Will's interference over the Kyle situation.

Lurking nearby, Cain enjoys watching Will's panic as he's clearly out of his depth trying to control the horse.

Will's misery is brought to an end when Caleb Miligan and Sam Dingle arrive with a horse box to deal with the unfortunate situation.

Despite saving the day, Caleb makes no effort to hide his obvious disdain for Will.

Will is sheepish after the chaos and Cain enjoys every minute of seeing him so humiliated.

Last month, Caleb was recruited by Will's wife Kim Tate to oversee the new stud farm. Will has expressed doubts over Caleb's suitability, but Kim is standing firm.

William Ash, who plays Caleb, recently said: "Caleb grew up in a care home and it was horrible. But there [were] stables across the field and he used to go up there. He found solace there.

"As a really little kid, he used to ride the horses and work in the stables, and then started training them. He then started selling them, and he's made a lot of money. I mean a lot of money — he's got a really nice car!

"Caleb is a bit like Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights, where he disappears then comes back with all this money. There's a bit of that for a few episodes where you're going: 'How's he got all this money and where's it all coming from?'

"Potentially, he'd love getting involved with Home Farm — certainly if he's going to stay in the village."

Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
