If it is Nate’s hand in the lake in Emmerdale – who killed him? All the fan theories so far

In what is already proving to be quite the dramatic week in Emmerdale (and it’s only Tuesday!) a hand was discovered under the icy lake and fans are convinced it belongs to Nate Robinson. But if it is, how did it get there?

Viewers and Emmerdale Insider have long since wondered if Nate was actually dead rather in than in Shetland as has been claimed. And now it seems we might be a step closer to finding out the truth…

Amy finds a hand – with a familiar friendship bracelet on – in the icy lake after the limo crash

Last night (Monday February 17) the girls’ limo crashed onto an icy lake and started to fall through. Suzy Merton was killed on impact and the other women (and Liam) forced to get out of the limo one by one carefully crossing the ice.

Liam, Chas, Vanessa and Tracy made it to safety, but Amy who was next to go, fell through the ice. She plunged into the water below and as she sunk to the depths she was confronted by a dead body – with us seeing just the hand, wearing a distinctive friendship bracelet. Very similar to the ones Frankie loves to make for everyone…

Did Amy uncover Nate Robinson’s body?

What happened to Nate in Emmerdale?

Nate left the Dales last year. He was supposedly taking a job in Shetland, which is known for being remote. He has barely been in touch since he went, sending just one message to ex Tracy telling her he wasn’t ready to talk and he would be in touch when he was.

The last viewers saw of Nate, he was off to confront Moira Dingle. She was unknowingly in the grips of her brain tumour and had made a pass at him. Caleb had witnessed it, told Cain and Cain had beaten his son. Nate tried to explain it was nothing and he had pushed her away, but Cain wanted nothing to do with him.

Tracy, with whom he had recently reconciled, also ended things and told him to go to Shetland alone.

Fans have long-since wondered why Nate’s exit was so abrupt. We never actually saw him leave and the last interaction he had was with John Sugden.Â

The fact he has not contacted his beloved daughter, who he once wanted sole custody of, nor did he respond to messages about his grandad Zak’s death, is highly susicious.

This was the last time anyone saw Nate – when he was talking John (Credit: ITV)

Who killed Nate in Emmerdale?

So let’s assume for now the hand does belong to Nate. Other theories include the most obvious, Anthony, whose body was disposed of by John Sugden last month after his death. But taking him out of the equation (Frankie definitely wouldn’t have made him a friendship bracelet!), just what did happen to Nate?

We haven’t trusted John since he arrived (Credit: ITV)

John Sugden

The smart money is on mysterious John Sugden. He was the last person (we know of) to see Nate alive and is also VERY handy at cleaning up after a murder.

Fans seem pretty convinced, with one writing on social media: “My money is on psycho John.” Another queried: So did John kill Nate because he was the last to see Nate who just weirdly disappeared?”

“We all know it’s prob John that off’d him, but considering they had no real interaction or connection it makes no sense to why? Just seems like trying to force another serial killer storyline,” mused a third.

A fourth added: “I need a flashback to why John killed Nate. That guy was suspect from the start.”

“It would explain why John appeared to have disposed of a body before he got rid of Anthony’sâ€¦” a fifth commenter connected.

A sixth wrote: “I think John killed Nate and it’s something to do with his partner who was killing the Army, I think Nate was in the Army.”

There was no love lost between Caleb and Nate (Credit: ITV)

Caleb Miligan

There was no love lost between Caleb and Nate after the former slept with the latter’s wife, Tracy. Nate took revenge by scrapping all of Caleb’s cars. But would Caleb have killed to get him back?

“My theory is that Caleb killed Nate and so Cain will kill Caleb,” shared one viewer.

Another agreed: “My money’s on Caleb having killed him.”

Moira made some pretty bad moves before her brain tumour diagnosis (Credit: ITV)

Moira Dingle

A quite out-there theory, but one that made sense at the time given Moira’s out of character behaviour.

“Moira shot Nate, John covered it up and we now know he threw the body in the lake,” said one fan on X.

Liam Cavanagh and his chequered love life: marriage to Maya, romance with Chas and who he should really be with

As Dr Liam Cavanagh plans to propose to Chas Dingle in Emmerdale, disaster is set to strike when the limo they are in crashes. Will Liam get the answer he’s after before everything changes?

It isn’t the first time things have gone wrong for Liam, in fact he’s had quite the chequered love life. But who was his worst mistake – the paedophile or the child killer? And is Chas really the one for him?

The romantic history of Liam Cavanagh in Emmerdale

Before all these bad romances, Liam was fresh-faced and smiley (Credit: ITV)

Liam’s first wife, Lara

The first wife of Dr Liam was called Lara. She was the mother of his daughter Leanna, who was born in 2003.

Before Liam and Leanna came to Emmerdale, Lara had died due to an allergic reaction. Leanna was just six years old at the time.

This was one of Liam’s bigger mistakes (Credit: ITV/Shutterstock)

Second wife, paedophile Maya Stepney

By 2013, four years after Lara’s death, Liam married Maya Stepney. Maya and Leanna did not get along and by 2018 things were at breaking point for Liam and Maya and she began an affair with David Metcalfe.

Furious Liam ended their marriage when he found out and threw her out. This was all quite fortuitous for Liam as it turned out Maya was a groomer who targeted Jacob Gallagher, David’s son. Maya was eventually caught and sent to prison for 12 months.

Having served just five months of her sentence Maya was seen leaving prison, pregnant. The baby turned out to be David’s and she abandoned little Theo on the doorstop on Christmas Day.

Liam had a lucky escape with this one.

Bernice Blackstock and Liam Cavanagh in Emmerdale – almost made it

Liam then began an affair with Bernice Blackstock, who was dating Daz Spencer at the time. They eventually went public with their relationship, breaking Daz’s heart and Liam proposed in July 2019.

However, on the eve of their wedding Bernice received a call to say her ex, and father of her daughter Dee-Dee, had been involved in a car accident in Australia. He was in a critical condition and would need constant care if he survived.

Bernice knew she had to go straight to Oz to support Dee-Dee and look after Charlie. She was due to come home in a few weeks. However, Liam was left heartbroken when she decided not to return after he confessed he had kissed Leyla Harding.

Third wife – Leyla Harding

After an illicit kiss with Leyla, Liam at first tried to win Bernice back, but she wasn’t having any of it. By February 2020, he and Leyla were in a relationship.

They married, despite Bernice’s return and attempts to stop it, but the honeymoon period was very much over when Leanna was murdered by Meena Jutla. Liam sunk into a depression, he at first blamed Leyla for Leanna’s death because she had given Leanna the heels she supposedly tripped over in.

Leyla then fell pregnant, but suffered a heartbreaking miscarriage – and Liam was not there for her at all. Meena later shot Leyla and it all got too much for her so she turned to drugs to cope.

When Liam found out his wife was an addict it was the end of their marriage. Though they have remained on friendly terms.

This affair shocked everyone! (Credit: ITV)

Criminal affair – Wendy Posner

Liam’s affair with Wendy Posner has only one word that can describe it: ick. They bonded over Liam’s secret pastime as a crime fiction writer. As Wendy helped him craft his stories, literature turned to passion and the two embarked on an illicit affair.

Wendy decided to end it when she realised how much she loved Bob, but the image of Wendy and Liam going at it will forever remain with us.

Although they hit it off, Charity was still in love with Mack (Credit: ITV)

Dating Charity Dingle

When Mack left Charity for teenager Chloe, Charity decided to prove she was over him by dating Liam. They went on a few nights out and seemed to hit it off. But alas, she was still in love with Mack and ended up back with him.

Liam and Chas never quite got going (Credit: ITV)

Liam and Chas Dingle in Emmerdale – over before it began

Keeping it in the family, Liam next had a dalliance with Chas after helping her make cupcakes. But things took a turn when he discovered a lump in her breast during their sexual encounter.

Chas was then diagnosed with breast cancer. Despite Liam supporting her and them both clearly having feelings for each other, their romance never got off the ground. And when she saw him kissing Ella she decided to set him free and told him she wasn’t interested even though she clearly was.

After Ella’s big revelation, Chas and Liam hinted they would like to try again, but then Ella announced she was pregnant.

However, now she’s not pregnant, there’s still a flickering of something with Chas. Will they go the distance this time? Or even get off the start line?

Ella was hiding something huge from Liam (Credit: ITV)

Child-killer Ella Forster

In 2024 Liam sort of fell into a relationship with Ella Forster. She seemed nice enough and when Chas rejected him, the dishy doc decided to throw himself head first into things with his receptionist.

He moved her in, they got close and then it was revealed she had killed a child. Liam couldn’t deal – especially given his own child had been murdered. He told Ella to leave town and never darken his door again.

But some months later she returned and was revealed to be pregnant. Liam didn’t want the baby and told her to have an abortion. But then he had a change of heart and just as he was getting excited, a scan revealed there was no baby. So Liam accused Ella of lying.

In fact, she’d had a silent miscarriage and had been pregnant. When Liam found out the truth, he apologised and they started to grow close again. They gave their relationship another shot – but his feelings for Chas just wouldn’t go away.

Chas and Liam just couldn’t resist (Credit: ITV)

Liam and Chas in Emmerdale – the real deal?

It was Halloween 2024 when Liam couldn’t resist Chas any longer. They both confessed their feelings for each other and shared a kiss behind Ella’s back.

Chas refused to be the other woman and Liam agreed he would dump Ella. He took his time, but eventually managed to let her down gently. However he denied there was anyone else.

He and Chas agreed they would keep things quiet for a while to save Ella’s feelings. But she caught them out and was devastated.

Chas and Liam then went public with their relationship and everyone was happy for them. But Liam appears to be rushing things as he is planning to pop the question.

With his chequered history, is another marriage proposal really a good idea?

As Caleb sets up Cain for Anthony murder in Emmerdale, hereâ€™s whether Cain will go to prison

So anyone who knows a thing or two about soaps knows secrets – especially murder secrets – don’t stay buried for long and Caleb Miligan in Emmerdale is doing all he can to ensure his brother Cain Dingle goes down for murder.

Except we all know Cain had nothing to do with it. Cain merely agreed to give an alibi to help cover Aaron and Ruby’s tracks.

That’s now coming back to bite him after Caleb found out the truth about him and Ruby. But will Caleb’s attempts to frame his brother result in a prison sentence for Cain?

What happened in Emmerdale tonight?

On Wednesday (February 12) several pieces fell into place for Caleb and he realised Anthony had been telling the truth about Ruby and Cain sleeping together.

At first distraught and then seething, it was clear Caleb was plotting his revenge. And his opportunity came tonight (Thursday February 13) when the police arrived to question Cain over missing Anthony.

Cain stuck to the story – Anthony had sold him his car for scrap and left the village. But the police soon arrested him saying new evidence had come to light.

The new evidence was that Cain was the last person to see Anthony alive, he’d scrapped the car illegally and Manpreet had complained about noise after hours. Seems tenuous to us.

But Cain then agreed they could search the garage anyway, insisting he had nothing to hide.

Little did he know that Caleb had set him up. He had planted Anthony’s tooth in Cain’s boot ready for the cops to find. Fortunately, Aaron had spotted Caleb and retrieved the tooth before the police got there. Phew.

So Cain was let out without charge. But with Caleb gunning for him, for how long will he be a free man?

Caleb will stop at nothing to punish Cain (Credit: ITV)

Does Cain go to prison in Emmerdale?

Aaron confronted Caleb over setting up Cain and wanted to know what on earth he was playing at. But Caleb told Aaron he needed to butt out and that Cain was going down for this.

Caleb produced CCTV that incriminated Aaron in Anthony’s disappearance and told him he had to choose between letting Cain go down or going down himself. Aaron was forced to walk away.

So it seems clear Caleb is determined to frame Cain for Anthony’s murder – it kills two birds with one stone for him: take the heat off Ruby for the death and punish Cain for sleeping with his wife.

But now Cain has walked away from the police station, Caleb will have to find another way to frame him. Will Aaron let that happen?

Lake limo stunt leaves lives in danger

Tomorrow night the boys head out for a night in a limo with Caleb and Cain among them. Caleb is forced to drive when no chauffeur arrives with the vehicle.

But anger gets the better of him and he can’t cope being around Cain without blowing. As his temper rises, Caleb is forced to swerve to avoid an oncoming truck. He crashes, but will it be on the ice?

In a flashforward at New Year, Caleb was seen flatlining in surgery at hospital – could he die before he gets revenge on Cain?

Some fans think one of the brothers will try to drown the other in the icy lake.

One thing’s for sure, Caleb is going to get his revenge one way or another – but it may not mean Cain going to prison in Emmerdale.

What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Caleb framed Cain and threatened Aaron, while Liam got things really wrong

Emmerdale tonight saw Caleb’s dark side come out as he framed Cain and threatened Aaron. But will Aaron get the better of his uncle?

Meanwhile, Liam’s extravagant proposal hit more than a few hiccups, so he decided to put the idea ‘on ice’. Which might just be the stupidest thing he’s ever said…

Here’s all that happened in Emmerdale tonight, Thursday February 13.

Aaron foiled Caleb’s plan to frame Cain in Emmerdale tonight

Cain arrested

The police arrived at the garage to arrest Cain. Caleb, Ruby and Steph were watching and Steph shouted at the police car demanding answers. Ruby was beside herself, sure this meant it was all about to come crashing down around them. Caleb promised he would always protect her.

Aaron then caught Caleb snooping around at Butlers. But Caleb pocketed some keys and managed to fob him off – for now.

At the station Cain stuck to the story, but the evidence was stacking up – he was the last person to see Anthony alive, he’d scrapped the car illegally and Manpreet had complained about noise after hours. Cain then agreed they could search the garage.

Aaron saved Cain’s skin – but was threatened by Caleb

They found nothing – which it turned out was because Aaron had worked out what Caleb was up to and got there first. Caleb had planted Anthony’s tooth in Cain’s car boot and Aaron had found it before the police got there.

Aaron wanted answers. But Caleb fronted it out and insisted Aaron was in too deep and he couldn’t interfere with his plan to frame Cain. Caleb then produced CCTV of Aaron taking Anthony’s stuff and driving Anthony’s car to the garage.

“Loyalty’s for losers Aaron,” Caleb told him as he insisted Aaron had better keep quiet or else he would be next.

Liam was gutted when he didn’t win (Credit: ITV)

Liam’s plan to propose in Emmerdale tonight

Aaron was being hassled by John over how he was coping when Liam turned up. He wants Chas’ hand in marriage. But Aaron was distracted by the police being outside with Cain. The interaction between the two was quite amusing – Liam’s eagerness met with Aaron’s grumpiness gave us a good chuckle.

Despite Aaron’s blessing, Liam was left disappointed when he didn’t win the limo ride in the raffle. Bang goes his big romantic proposal under the moonlight.

Liam then asked Suzy to source him another limo, but Kerry was about to spoil that when she invited Chas to join her on a girls’ night.

As Chas insisted she hated Valentine’s Day, Liam covered his embarrassment by saying he’d hired the limo for a boys’ night.

He later confided in Paddy that he worried he didn’t really know Chas at all. He said he was going to keep it on ‘ice’ which is foreshadowing if ever we heard it.

Leyla at rock bottom

Suzy caught Leyla with cocaine at Take A Vow. Leyla explained it was Jacob’s and she couldn’t believe he was reaching for drugs. She vowed to act and tracked him down to the Hide.

Leyla confronted Jacob in front of his friends and he insisted it wasn’t his. Jacob’s mate then confessed it was his.

Despite trying to make it up to Jacob, his mate made things worse by trying to flirt with Belle and comparing her to a pigeon. He was dispatched pretty quickly after that.

Meanwhile, Leyla was sobbing at Take A Vow over how she’d messed up with Jacob. Belle tried to comfort her, but it was no good.

Also in Emmerdale tonight…

Amy had bought some sexy undies for Valentine’s Day and decided to test them out a day earlier. Which was unfortunate because the social worker they were meeting about the adoption turned up early and caught them in the act. She seemed understanding though and offered to come back later.

Fortunately, it all went really well and the adoption process has begun. But will there be any more slip-ups?

When is Emmerdale on tonight? Schedule change explained and it’s not sport’s fault for once!

It’s been hard to keep up lately with when Emmerdale is on – and tonight is no different as the schedule changes again. It means Emmerdale moves to a different time slot once more.

But in a shock twist worthy only of Soapland, it’s not actually because of a sporting fixture getting in the way!

When is Emmerdale on tonight?

Emmerdale usually airs for an hour on a Thursday from 7.30pm on ITV. However tonight, Thursday February 13, it will move to the earlier slot of 7pm.

The good news is, the soap will still be on for it’s hour-long episode tonight, so we’re not losing anything. And as usual, for anyone who wants to watch it even earlier (or later) the episode is already available on ITVX.

Usually this is because of football or rugby, but tonight the schedule looks different. In fact, Emmerdale is shifting for something else entirely. An hour-long episode of The Martin Lewis Money Show Live is on at 8pm, followed by Beat The Chasers at 9pm.

Cain finds himself arrested over Anthony’s disappearance in Emmerdale tonight. Steph is furious to think her uncle is involved in her grandad’s demise, but Caleb and Ruby try to paper over the cracks.

And it’s not long before it turns out Caleb knows more than he’s letting on. After discovering the truth about Cain and Ruby’s fling last night, is this his way of getting revenge?

Determined to propose to Chas, Liam has bought a mountain of tickets for the limo raffle. He also asks for Aaron’s approval.

Geared up and ready to go, Liam is disappointed when he doesn’t win – Kerry does.

No matter, he manages to secure a second limo so he can put his plans into action. However, Kerry then plans a girls’ night out and Chas is going on it.

Covering his frustration and his engagement plans, Liam then announces a boys’ night out in his limo instead. What could possibly go wrong?

Caleb knows the truth about Cain and Ruby – and his revenge will have terrible consequences

Caleb Miligan in Emmerdale knows that brother Cain Dingle slept with his wife Ruby Fox-Miligan – and he is set to take revenge.

But whatever he has planned has dramatic consequences when it results in a limo crash later this week.

Are Caleb and Cain’s lives on the line due to Caleb’s thirst for vengeance?

Things were frosty between Caleb and Cain in the pub (Credit: ITV)

Caleb found out the truth in Emmerdale tonight

Cain might as well have been walking round with a sign on his forehead saying ‘I slept with your wife’ he’s making it so obvious he can’t bear to be around Caleb and Ruby. And tonight when Caleb took him a brew to the garage, Cain wasn’t welcoming at all.

The awkward atmosphere has not gone unnoticed by Caleb. He then discovered that Steph was on contraception and flashed back to the time he found the morning after pill in the bin and assumed it was hers.

Steph also commented she’d just seen Ruby and Cain glaring at each other. Cain later then said he’d not seen Ruby in days.

All of these puzzle pieces fell into place for Caleb who suddenly realised Anthony had been telling the truth and Cain and Ruby had slept together.

What he doesn’t know at this stage is it was just a one-time thing, he thinks it’s a full-blown affair.

And he’s not going to take the time to clarify that before exacting his revenge. After a quick sob in the toilets at the Woolpack, he pulled himself together for a pint with Cain.

Cain, clearly still uncomfortable, couldn’t get away quick enough, downed his pint and asked:Â “Are we done then?”

“I guess we are,” Caleb replied with a meaning only we understood. But what will he do next?

Cain is carted away by the cops tomorrow (Credit: ITV)

Cain arrested

Tomorrow night Cain will be arrested in Emmerdale. Steph is furious to see her uncle being carted away in connection to Anthony’s disappearance.

Caleb and Ruby half-heartedly defend him, but does Caleb know more about this than he’s letting on? Is he quite happy to let his brother take the blame so he can kill two birds with one stone – protect his family from being accused and get revenge?

It seems like it’s win-win for him…

Lake limo stunt in Emmerdale as Caleb loses control in his quest for revenge

By Friday night (February 14) Cain is a free man and he and Caleb, along with lots of other village guys, are getting suited and booted to head off for a night out in a limo.

But when the limo is delivered without a driver, Caleb steps up and takes the wheel.

Things are very tense between Caleb and his brother and as his temper rises, his anger boils over. Losing concentration on the road, Caleb is forced to swerve to avoid an oncoming truck.

The limo crashes – as does the one the girls are travelling in. One of the limos goes onto an icy lake and teeters over the water as the ice cracks. But is it the boys or girls?

Has Caleb’s and Cain’s feud and Caleb’s desire for revenge cost someone their life?

What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Belle showed Tom who’s boss as Caleb sobbed over Ruby and Cain

In Emmerdale tonight Tom King realised he was no longer able to manipulate Belle as she showed him she’s done with him for good. But will he listen?

Meanwhile, Cain’s behaviour and Steph’s admission put the puzzle pieces together for Caleb who realised Cain and Ruby had slept together. And now he’s plotting revenge…

Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight, Wednesday February 12.

Caleb worked out the truth about Cain and Ruby

Cain was awkward with Caleb when he popped over to the garage – and made out it was just because of the Anthony cover-up.

When Caleb returned home he found PC Swirling with Steph and Ruby. Steph still wants answers and wants to declare her grandad officially missing.

Later, Steph told Caleb she had been to the doctors to get the contraceptive injection. Caleb flashed back to finding the morning after pill in the bin and thinking it was Steph’s. Then when she mentioned she’d seen Cain and Ruby glaring at each other in the street, Caleb flashed back to Anthony’s claims they were sleeping together.

The penny had dropped – and frankly we wish it hadn’t. This would have been far better left alone. Actually, far better if it had never happened, but it did and here we are.

Caleb then drowned his sorrows in the pub – and lashed out at Mary who was feeling really shakey after seeing Vanessa and Suzy all loved-up. They ended up offering comfort to each other.

Caleb couldn’t hold it together when Cain arrived, and he went and sobbed in the toilets.

He then questioned Cain about whether he’s willing to stick to the plan. Cain insisted he wouldn’t let him down. But something Cain said was all the confirmation Caleb needed. His face darkened as Cain left and we’re left wondering exactly what he’s plotting against his brother…

Tom couldn’t manipulate Belle this time (Credit: ITV)

Belle got rid of Tom for good in Emmerdale tonight

Lydia had finally realised Belle seeing Tom is a bad idea. But Belle was adamant she has to do it.

In the prison visiting room Tom was admittedly surprised Belle came. He played the victim and said he knew he didn’t deserve it.

Tom went on that he wanted to achieve a future together and Belle told him all they would achieve would be a divorce. Tom begrudgingly admitted he had made some mistakes (big of him). And then he said he believed her family were pushing the divorce and now she’s seen him she must know they can work it out.

Tom then insisted he would fight her for everything if she tried to divorce him. She told them there wasn’t anything to fight for and she’s not going to get scared again.

Belle then left him, with one final look of defiance back that told him she is done and that is it. Is this the last we see of Tom? We really hope so.

Also in Emmerdale tonight…

Joe continues to make mysterious phone calls about Noah (Credit: ITV)

Joe wasn’t ‘done yet’

In the ktichen at GHome Farm, Charity threatened Joe off hurting Noah again. He then popped some pills, reminding us all that something is seriously wrong.Â But what?

Joe was later in the pub when Cain approached and threatened him with a bogwashing if he went near Noah again. Joe then took a mysterious phone call and told the caller Noah will “be in the right place at the right time” and insisted he wasn’t done yet.

Tom King is back in Emmerdale – here’s what the future holds for him and Belle after his return

Emmerdale has aired the return of Tom King. Fortunately he’s still behind bars, but it’s clear he’s plotting once again. So how far will he go this time?

Is Belle in danger from her evil ex? She’s desperate to move on from their marriage and get a divorce, but Tom has other ideas…

Tom King returns to Emmerdale

It was obvious right from the start of tonight’s episode of Emmerdale (Tuesday February 11), when we saw Tom King in his prison cell, that he has not changed one bit. He has not learnt a single thing from being found guilty and is never going to let Belle have the peace she deserves.

He seems to be faking an interest in God and consulting with the prison chaplain. The chaplain may or may not have been taken in by Tom’s manipulation, it’s unclear. He seemed uneasy around the abuser, but also agreed to speak to Belle’s solicitor on Tom’s behalf.

It seems Tom is delusional that he and Belle can iron out their differences and get back together. He thought the chaplain was the perfect person to make Belle see he’s a changed man. Except, of course, he is not.

Tom expressed his desire to ‘make things up to Belle’ and used his first-class manipulation technique to get the man of the cloth on his side.

Does Belle go to visit Tom?

What really struck us as ridiculous though was Belle’s solicitor then advising her to go and visit him to ‘talk things through’ When have Tom and Belle ever been able to talk without him manipulating her?

Then Lydia agreeing it was a good idea! This is the man in prison for coercively controlling Belle – why does everyone think her seeing him ever again is something she should do?

Lydia pointed out she wouldn’t be alone with him, a prison officer would be there. But that won’t stop him trying to manipulate her and talk her round.

Tom and Belle have already had their final showdown in court. And Belle got the justice she deserved. But it looks like, in her determination to get a divorce, Belle is going to go and see her ex.

Tom was thrilled when he found out she would visit him tomorrow: “This is the chance I’ve been waiting for… I’m not about to waste it,” he told the chaplain. So what is he planning this time?

Is Tom back for good?

So Belle has agreed to go and see him in prison and by the sounds of things, that will air in tomorrow’s episode. Will he let her walk away though? Is this his chance to manipulate her once again? Or will she at last be free of him?

Emmerdale is remaining tight-lipped about how long Tom is back for this time. But James Chase, who plays Tom, has previously saidÂ he would be open to revisiting the character or the story further down the line.

“I think, with good behaviour, he’s only going to get something like 16 to 18 months, which is crazy,” James said.

“But I think it would depend where they would want to go with the character, because there are many different avenues you could go with it. They could make it that Tom potentially had got even worse, and hasn’t changed at all. Perhaps, he could hate Belle even more for it.

“Or if he did go the other way and finally did realise the terrible things he’s done, and perhaps did, actually start to try to become a better man.”
