  • ‘Who Killed Tom King 2’ predicted as Christmas storyline by fans

    ‘Who Killed Tom King 2’ predicted as Christmas storyline by fans

    How will Emmerdale conclude the saga of Tom King? For months now, frustrated viewers have watched as terrible Tom has tormented wife Belle – first during their marriage, and now in the aftermath of his being exposed as an abuser.

    While Tom’s secret is out now, he’s still denying it all. He’s even faked being beaten up to keep uncle Jimmy on side. But with the Dingles shouting of Tom’s guilt from the rooftops, and Nicola increasingly convinced too, it’s clear he’s facing a losing battle.

    But how will Tom’s story end?

    Fans of the soap have predicted that this is all headed for a classic Christmas whodunnit – with Emmerdale setting things up for a ‘Who Killed Tom King mark Two.’

    Emmerdale fans predict Tom King whodunnit is coming

    Writing on a Reddit thread, one fan said: “I could honestly see ’em redoing who killed Tom King number two for Christmas. It fits perfectly, 18 years on from his granddad. And Belle’s birthday is also on Christmas. I’m pretty sure it would link up very well?”

    “Kim’s horse is shining his hooves ready for action,” joked another – referring to the death of rapist Craig, who had been done in by Kim Tate’s horse – resolving the soap’s last whodunnit.

    “Are they gonna do a who killed Tom?” asked a third, over on X.

    “This storyline is going to end with a ‘who killed Tom’ ending. So many suspects from Cain to Isaac. But I think it’ll be Amelia,” said another.

    Who killed Tom King? No, not that one

    Such a storyline would follow in the footsteps of Classic Emmerdale‘s Who Killed Tom King storyline of 2006. This saw family patriarch Tom defenestrated (pushed out of a window, to you and I) – with his three sons and new wife as prime suspects.

    This carried on for five months, when the killer was finally revealed. As Matthew and Jimmy fought it out – with Matthew accusing Jimmy of killing their dad – Carl confessed the truth.

    Carl had whacked his dad over the head in a fit of frustration, after Tom attempted to force him to split up with Chas with the threat of disinheritance. As Tom grabbed on to his son, Carl pushed him away – causing him to fall out of the window.

    Will history repeat itself?

  • Emmerdale fans in complete U-turn over ‘poor Mack’ as Ross kisses Charity

    Emmerdale fans in complete U-turn over ‘poor Mack’ as Ross kisses Charity

    Fans of Emmerdale have found themselves conflicted for ‘poor Mack’ after Ross leaned in for a kiss with Charity. Ross has only been back in the village all of five minutes, but he didn’t waste much time in making his move.

    Charity spurned her former lover, but the chemistry between the pair was undeniable. And, as the pair shared a quick kiss last night (Monday, November 4), viewers took that as all the confirmation they needed that an affair is nigh.

    But where does this leave Mack?

    ‘Poor Mack!’ cry Emmerdale fans as Ross makes his move

    Writing on social media as the scenes aired, fans shared their horror at the thought of a Charity and Ross reunion. And many felt pity for Mack, who is sure to be left out in the cold by a potential Ross and Charity reconciliation.

    “He’s playing Charity … again. She will fall for his charms deffo! Poor Mack!” cried one fan.

    “Nooooo please don’t do this to Charity and Mack,” said another.

    “Course it was coming poor Mack,” said a third.

    “No! No! No! Don’t split another couple up!” a fourth horrified viewer begged.

    Fans’ consternation came as quite the change of tune, given Mack’s historied unpopularity among Emmerdale viewers.

    Poor Mack?

    Mack – often dubbed ‘Mackrat’ on social media – may be playing the ideal husband and father at the moment, but it was only last year that he had Charity in a state over his cheating with Chloe.

    Fathering a child after a one-night stand, Mack then lied about his infidelity for months on end. And, once the truth came out, he then played both women for fools, (somehow) reuniting with Charity amid the new life he’d built with Chloe and Rueben.

    Somehow, Charity managed to forgive and forget and so, it appears, did many viewers.

    Classic Emmerdale spoilers: Rosemary takes terrible revenge on Sadie and Rodney sets Jamie a challenge!

    In Classic Emmerdale spoilers for episodes airing on ITV3 on Tuesday November 5, Rosemary takes terrible revenge on Sadie, Rodney sets Jamie a challenge, and it’s time for choir practice!

    These episodes originally aired on April 2 and 4, 2006.

    Horses for courses

    Sadie and Matthew go to see the Sinclairs to discuss a settlement, certain they won’t be ready to go down without a fight. But Rosemary is very cool, and even invites them to share a special French meal, prepared by their chef.

    After the meal, Rosemary hands over the documents. But while Sadie smugly reads the details, Rosemary’s got something to say.

    She announces that though the business was worth a million on Friday, it’s now worth nothing. Then she adds that the delicious French meal they just enjoyed was made from Sadie’s beloved horse, Cossack.

    Horrified, Sadie leaves. While Matthew tells her he’s going to take more of a role in their business affairs from now on.

    Sticking around

    And elsewhere, Jimmy warns Tom that it doesn’t look like Sadie’s going to be leaving the village any time soon.

    Building bridges

    Rodney’s fretting about Paul, who’s still down over his breakup with Ivan. He invites Paul to share his new wine, and over drinks father and son have a heart to heart.

    Rodney apologises for lavishing attention on Nicola and not making an effort to properly understand Paul’s sexuality. And Rodney tells Paul he’s proud of him. Aww.

    Sadie’s making plans in Classic Emmerdale

    Later, Matthew is desperate to leave the village but Sadie says she won’t go until they sell Victoria Cottage.

    Matthew thinks Tom might buy it, but he doesn’t want to know.

    Tom catches up with an old rival Don Clough who wants to sell his haulage wing. Tom pretends he isn’t interested but talks it through with Jimmy. But before he can act, he gets called away to visit a sick friend.

    Meanwhile, Sadie’s got wind of the sale and thinks this could be the perfect way to get revenge on Tom and make some money too.

    Moving on?

    Paul decides to move back to Mill Cottage but as he’s unpacking he comes across a CD of Ivan’s. Kelly suggests he returns it, and when he does it’s clear both men are sad about the end of their relationship.

    Paul wonders what could have happened without Nicola interfering.

    Jamie’s on a money-making mission

    Viv’s annoyed when she finds out Jamie’s been keeping some of the cafe’s profits for himself by serving Sunday dinners.

    Jamie asks Rodney for a job and Rodney sets him a challenge. He gives him a worthless vase and says if he can sell it for £500 he’ll give him half the profits. Jamie’s confident he can get £1000!

    Singing the blues!

    It’s time for the choir practice and though Jasmine doesn’t go after some flack from Debbie, Del suggests that Sam could use the choir as a distraction. And Laurel and Edna spend the whole practice bickering.

    Alice is sad in Classic Emmerdale

    Alice is upset when she’s told she can’t go home yet and Sam’s sad to know there’s nothing he can do to help.

    Elsewhere, Simon’s looking for love.

    Emmerdale spoilers: Vinny disowns Mandy after the truth about Tina is revealed

    Emmerdale spoilers for next week reveal Vinny Dingle finally learns the truth of his parentage – and he’s not happy.

    Tina Dingle announces that she is Vinny’s mother, despite Mandy’s desperate plea for her to keep quiet.

    Tina returned to the village a couple of weeks ago during Zak Dingle’s funeral. Her stay was short, however, as she was hauled off by the police for breaching her release conditions.

    But now, a tag-free Tina is back, and she’s causing trouble for Mandy.

    Emmerdale: Vinny Dingle’s mum

    Tina originally ordered Mandy to find Zak’s will and take it to her. She wanted to keep the money for herself, and Mandy managed to find the will despite her hesitance.

    Previously, Tina greeted Vinny and questioned him about his love life. After he left, Mandy shouted at Tina that she’d told her to stay away.

    Tina snapped: “You don’t get to tell me where I can and can’t go, especially now I’ve got interests round here.”

    Mandy said that Tina isn’t included in Zak’s will and can’t have a share of the house, but Tina replied: “Prove it. It belongs to family. And I’m family. And who says we’re just talking about the house?”

    This caused a nervous reaction from Mandy, as Tina continued: “I’ve come for everything that’s mine. Vinny is such a sweet boy. Do you know, it makes me sad, thinking about everything I’ve missed out on. What’s mine is mine. My house. My son.”

    While Vinny knows Mandy is not his biological mum, he is unaware of his true parentage. Until now…

    Emmerdale: Vinny learns the truth

    On Monday (November 11), Tina is shocked to open the door of her caravan and find herself in a random field.

    Not backing down, Mandy demands that she leaves the Dingles alone for good. However, Mandy’s outraged when she arrives back at the Dingles’ to find Tina already there with Vinny.

    He’s completely overwhelmed as Tina has finally told him the truth.

    Mandy begs him to listen to her reasoning but as the two women begin arguing viciously, Vinny quietly leaves unable to deal with it.

    It’s chaos on Main Street when Mandy’s secret becomes public knowledge. The Dingles can’t believe what they are hearing. They want answers over Mandy’s betrayal, but as they probe her for the full truth, Tina slips away without a word. 

    Meanwhile, the one person Mandy is really concerned about, Vinny, is distraught to have been lied to. He breaks Mandy’s heart when he disowns her over her lies. Can she win him back round?

    In Emmerdale spoilers, Tom King threatens Paddy as he struggles with the ongoing pressure of the investigation into his abuse of Belle and his growing unpopularity in the village.

    In the wake of Belle revealing that he’d abused her, Tom’s life and career quickly fell apart. Not only are the Dingles out for blood, but Nicola has also seen the light. Convinced that Belle is telling the truth, she’ll stop at nothing to expose him… even risking her marriage to husband Jimmy.

    Meanwhile, with Rhona and Vanessa believing Belle’s side of the story, they suspended Tom with plans to fire him. Fuming, Tom threatened to sue for unfair dismissal. His threats had Rhona shaken, but she remained set on getting rid.

    But Vinny has been here before with dodgy parents and sees right through her. He offers her a choice: stay in his life or take 50k, return Zak’s will and leave for good.

    What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Tom claimed he was attacked and Ross tried to kiss Charity

    In Emmerdale tonight, Tom continued to pull the wool over his uncle Jimmy‘s eyes. This time, he received sympathy from Jimmy after claiming to be attacked.

    Elsewhere, Ella drunk away the afternoon and confided in Chas about her heartbreak. Unbeknown to her, Chas is the cause of that heartbreak.

    Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight (Monday, November 4).

    Emmerdale tonight: Tom claimed he’d been attacked

    After Nicola spent the night at Laurel’s and refused to take Jimmy’s calls in Emmerdale tonight, Jimmy got snappy with Tom.

    Tom told Jimmy he was constantly getting hateful messages online. Jimmy responded that he didn’t have time to mollycoddle Tom and instructed him to leave the house for a while. Later, Laurel came across Tom crouching on the floor by the church with blood over him.

    Jimmy, as dopey as ever, apologised to Tom for making him leave the house. Tom claimed he hadn’t seen his attacker, but both he and Jimmy decided Sam Dingle were the guilty party. Tom continued to manipulate Jimmy and told him he didn’t want to go to the police as he didn’t want to cause any more trouble for Belle.

    “I’m better off just keeping my head down, coping on my own,” Tom told his uncle, while we screamed into a pillow. Jimmy responded: “I’ll always have your back.”  Can someone bang his head against a wall, please?

    In the village, Jimmy accused Sam of being the one to smash up Tom’s car and of attacking Tom.

    The often thick Sam had us all saying “Yes, Sam!” when he told Jimmy: “And you think you’re the clever one? Protecting that idiot? He’s pulled the wool over your eyes, big time. We can all see it. Even your wife can see it.”

    The truth came out at the end of the episode when Tom got into the car belonging to his solicitor friend Ollie. And if there was any doubt, it was revealed that Tom had arranged the attack himself. Ollie had been the one to hit Tom as Tom didn’t think the online messages were enough to garner sympathy.

    Tom then threatened Ollie, telling him he would divulge the information he knew about him if he didn’t continue to do as Tom asked. Tom informed him they needed a back up plan to ensure he didn’t go to prison – legal or not.

    Liam and Chas made a decision

    After being dumped by Liam, Ella spent some time in the Woolpack knocking back drinks. She opened up to Chas and told her: “It feels as though he’s plunged his hand into my chest, ripped my heart out, and stamped on it till it’s flat.”

    “He obviously didn’t love me as much as I loved him,” she went on. Chas couldn’t have looked more guilty if she tried, but Ella didn’t catch on. Boy, is she in for a shock.

    Later, Chas told Liam about her interaction with Ella, telling him how upset Ella had been. They agreed to keep their relationship a secret and to not rub Ella’s nose in it. Liam then went on to say that after a bit of time he’d be shouting about their relationship from the rooftops – because that wouldn’t be rubbing Ella’s nose in it at all.

    Also in Emmerdale tonight

    Ross made a move on Charity

    Ross didn’t take too kindly to Mack describing Moses as ‘our son,’ telling him, “I think you meant to say ‘your son’.” The cheek – he hasn’t been around for six years!

    Later, Charity spied on Ross as he told Billy that the boxing rematch was off. Charity told Ross that she was impressed by him for being sensible. Ross took Charity’s praise the wrong way and during a cosy chat in the pub, Ross leaned in for a kiss. Charity immediately pushed him away and insisted she loved Mack.

    Ross quipped, “Yeah I met him, not my favourite person.” He wasn’t put off though and told Charity: “I know that you want me.” It’s a tough life for Charity, having both Mack and Ross at her beck and call…

    Angelica struggled to settle in

    Cathy went to visit Angelica, who admitted that she was struggling with being back in the village. Angel also said she didn’t ever want to go back to school for fear of bullying.

    When Bob spoke to Nicola later on, Nicola was visibly upset that Angelica felt she didn’t belong in the village. Will she be able to help her daughter feel better?

  • Daz Eden in Emmerdale: Troublemaker, family issues and relationship with Victoria

    Daz Eden in Emmerdale: Troublemaker, family issues and relationship with Victoria

    Darren ‘Daz’ Eden arrived in Emmerdale in 2003 looking for his half brother, Andy Sugden. He was initially a troublemaker, but managed to reform.

    He had a strained relationship with his brother, particularly when it came to Andy’s relationships with Katie and Jo. Daz had his own romantic connections, most notably with Victoria, who many saw as Daz’s sibling.

    Here is Daz’s story.

    Daz the troublemaker

    Daz arrived in the Dales in October 2003 searching for his half brother, Andy Sugden. The two shared the same dad – Billy Hopwood.

    He was initially a tearaway and immediately took to stealing cars. Daz drove away in Robert’s car, crashing into hay bales in the process. He later stole some more cars, including Jack’s.

    When he was punished by being sentenced to community service, he was hoping to do this at Scott’s garage, but Scott refused, meaning Daz would have to go to a young offenders institute. Daz got his revenge by setting fire to the garage.

    Relationship with his brother

    When Daz came to the village, Andy was in a relationship with Katie. Katie was having an affair with Andy’s brother Robert, which was discovered by Daz.

    Katie threatened Daz and told him that Andy wouldn’t believe him. This turned out to be the case and Katie persuaded Andy to put Daz into care. But when the truth finally came out, Andy visited Daz and persuaded him to come back to the farm.

    However, after finally feeling secure and loved by his brother, Andy surprised Daz by getting back with Katie. Daz told Andy he had to choose between him and Katie – Andy chose Katie. Daz then moved in with Jack.

    They faced further trouble later on when Daz discovered Andy had been hitting girlfriend Jo. Daz punched Andy but immediately regretted it as he didn’t want to be like Andy or his dad.

    Daz’s mum and dad

    Daz’s mum Denise did not appear in many Emmerdale episodes, but when she did, she managed to convince her son she was a changed woman. Daz briefly left the Dales to go live with her, but returned a couple of months later.

    Denise returned and insisted Daz make amends with her boyfriend, but he refused. When Diane and Jack decided to start adoption proceedings for Daz, Denise was happy to allow it.

    However, Daz’s dad Billy – who was in prison – was not as keen. He felt the Sugdens had already stolen one of his sons.

    Upon his release from prison, Billy arrived in the Dales. He got a job and tried to make amends with his sons. Andy told him that Jack was his dad, but Billy did manage to bond with Daz. The relationship was later damaged though when Billy had an affair with Diane.

    Romantic connection with Victoria and Emmerdale exit

    After having a crush on Jasmine Thomas, Daz dated Penny Drury. He then met Scarlett Nicholls, the daughter of Tom King, in 2007. Scarlett took a liking to him immediately and they eventually got together.

    However, while he was with Scarlett, he formed a deep connection with Victoria Sugden, who was like a sister to him. The two kissed on Christmas Day in 2008 and then slept together a few months later. Victoria thought this meant they could be a couple, but Daz said it was a mistake and he wanted to stay with Scarlett.

    To get revenge, Victoria slept with Aaron at Daz’s house and they were caught by Scarlett and Daz. Daz was angry and went for Aaron before Victoria blurted out that it was Daz’s fault as he didn’t want her any more. Realising they had more than a brother/sister relationship, Aaron and Scarlett were disgusted.

    Aaron immediately told Andy, who was equally disgusted. He told Daz to leave and never return. Daz did just that. On his way out of the village, he stopped by the farm to see if he could get a last glimpse of Victoria, but he quickly left as he didn’t want to risk Andy seeing him.

    Who played Daz Eden?

    Daz was played by Luke Tittensor. Luke has a twin brother, Elliott, who is also an actor. The twins shared the role of Carl Gallagher in Shameless before Elliott took on the role on his own.

    Luke then landed the role of Daz in Emmerdale. After leaving Emmerdale, Luke played Connor in Waterloo Road. He has also appeared in Casualty, Holby City and Moving On.

    More recently, he secured the role of Ser Arryk Cargyll in House of the Dragon, alongside his twin brother, who plays Ser Erryk Cargyll.
