Emmerdale fans believe Cain Dingle has been replaced after Charles Anderson placed a chilling threat towards Alex Moore when he woke up from his coma.
While it was Billy Fletcher who accidentally mowed down Alex, fans watched as Charles became the prime suspect for the crime.
Despite this, the village vicar warned Billy not to own up to anything, believing that if Alex died then their problems go away.

This wasn’t the case however as Alex woke up from his coma with full memory of what happened to him and told Charles he was heading straight to the police.
Letting his morals go out the window for a second, Charles removed his collar and moved closer to a vulnerable Alex in his hospital bed.
As Alex asked: “What are you doing to do? You’re a man of the cloth”, Charles responded with a haunting threat as he told the criminal: “I’m going to help you make the right choices”.
This was enough to scare Alex as he promised Charles he would leave the village and keep the police in the dark about Billy’s involvement in the hit and run.

Emmerdale shared a clip of the scene on its official Instagram page alongside the caption: “We all thought Cain was the most intimidating person in the village”.
Fans headed straight to the comments to share their thoughts on Charles becoming the new village bad boy as one penned: “Cain’s not even in Charles’s league anymore!”
Another fan wrote: “I’d be more scared of Charles right now than Cain and Caleb together”.
While others began speculating whether Charles has a dark past that could come back to haunt him as one person shared: “Charles was excellent. Hope he got his point across . Wonder what he did before becoming a vicar.”
“I’d love to know what he did before he was a vicar….,” added a second viewer.
Another fan commented: “I think Charles used to be a gangster at one point before he became a man of the cloth. Charles was very menacing… I just loved how this became a turning point for him.”
While a fourth speculated: “Wonder if he’s killed before and that’s why he turned to god.”
