    Spoilers: Tom threatens Paddy as he struggles to keep control

    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.

    However, controlling Tom was never one to let things go. And, with his lies quickly spinning out of hand, Tom is keen to get things back on track. So far, this has involved faking a beating with the help of his own solicitor, and trashing his car. His victim act may have Jimmy fooled, but he still has a lot of work to do to repair his public image.

    Next on Tom’s to-do list is getting his job back – by any means necessary. Issuing a threat to Paddy, Tom demands to be reinstated at the vets’. Will Paddy bow to Tom’s demands?

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

    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?

    2. Nicola remains firm

    Last week, Nicola went in on Tom and told him she didn’t believe anything he was saying. After labelling Tom a wife beater, Jimmy walked in and took Tom’s side.

    Jimmy insisted that Nicola apologise to Tom. Nicola said she would do no such thing and told Jimmy that she’d be moving to Laurel’s with the kids until Tom moved out.

    Tonight, Nicola remains firm in her suspicions about Tom and confirms that she’ll be moving out of the house until Tom is gone. Will Jimmy continue to side with his nephew over his wife?

    Tonight, Ella continues to be upset over the break-up. Seeing how hurt Ella is, Chas and Liam decide they have to keep their relationship private for now. But how long will it be until Ella discovers the truth?

  • 11 Iconic Emmerdale pets – loyal canines, a crazy cockatoo and a killer horse!

    11 Iconic Emmerdale pets – loyal canines, a crazy cockatoo and a killer horse!

    The pets in Emmerdale are as loved as the characters who own them.

    Earlier this year, fans were outraged over Tom King’s cruel treatment towards Belle’s beloved dog, Piper. But it’s not just little Piper who the viewers have taken into their hearts.

    From canines to cockatoos, here’s a look at the most memorable stars of the Emmerdale animal cast…

    Emmerdale pets: Piper – Belle and Tom King’s dog

    Fan favourite Piper is still very much on our minds, so it’s only correct she features first. The adorable pooch was adopted by vet Tom King in March 2024, who then gave her as a present to his wife, Belle.

    Belle absolutely doted on her new pet, but Tom grew jealous and decided to use Piper as a pawn in his wicked manipulation. When Belle walked out on him, Tom drugged Piper to bring her back. But the lowest of the low came when Tom deliberately hit Piper with his car and claimed he’d been unable to save her.

    Fans watched on in horror as Tom made Belle believe Piper had died. He even orchestrated a fake burial and watched on as Belle grieved for her lost friend.

    Piper’s true fate was revealed a few days later when Tom re-homed Piper with a couple, who had been led to believe that Belle was abusing her. So now we know Piper is alive and well, we’re hoping one day she and Belle will be reunited.

    Alfie – the Dingles’ dog

    Wolfhound Alfie was the Dingle family’s loyal companion for 15 years.

    He was born in 2002 and came to live with the iconic Emmerdale clan the same year. But much like his owners, Alfie’s life was full of drama.

    In 2010, he survived a poisoning after chemicals seeped into land near Wishing Well. Then later that year, Alfie was out walking in Home Farm woods when he sniffed out Mark Wylde’s decomposing corpse.

    Tragedy struck in May 2017 when Alfie’s master Zak Dingle accidentally ran him over while fleeing from a mob of angry vegans. Alfie underwent emergency surgery and pulled through, but was then diagnosed with terminal liver cancer.

    Realising his mutt didn’t have long left, Zak agreed it would be kinder to put Alfie out of his pain. Paddy administered a lethal injection and Alfie slipped away, with Zak by his side.

    The acting dog, whose real name is also Alfie, was owned by Lynda Woodrow, and retired at her request in the show’s 8007th episode.

    Monty – the Dingles’ dog

    Alfie’s replacement was Monty – who looked like an exact clone of his predecessor.

    Monty’s first on-screen appearance was on August 9, 2018 and he’s been part of the family ever since.

    Perhaps Monty’s most memorable moment was one the saddest days in Dingle history. On May 23, 2019, matriarch Lisa died just hours after her emotional wedding to Zak. He discovered his bride had peacefully slipped away at home, and Monty was by her side.

    Fans praised the pooch for his performance in the tear-jerking scenes and said he deserved an Oscar. His little forlorn expression was definitely worthy of all the awards!

    Emmerdale pets: Steve – Lydia Dingle’s cockatoo

    Steve was a depressed cockatoo who was an ‘unfriendly so and so who often bit people.’ But that didn’t stop Lydia Dingle from loving him.

    The pet bird was certainly a character, and he met an  unfortunate end when he escaped from his cage and flew into a power line.

    Lydia was devastated by Steve’s death and had him stuffed by a taxidermist. Lydia took Steve with her when she moved into Mulberry Cottage in 2017 – much to Laurel Thomas’s horror!

    Stuffed Steve hasn’t been seen since, but don’t worry he’s still around. Lydia confirmed this while she was comforting Belle over the ‘death’ of Piper, saying she could still see Steve whenever she wanted.

    Let’s just hope we don’t have to.

    Batley – Edna Birch’s dog

    Acerbic Edna didn’t have a lot of time for humans, but she sure loved her fur babies. Edna’s first four-legged friend was a cute Yorkshire terrier called Batley, who she had from a pup.

    Wherever Edna went, Batley followed, and viewers adored him. They were outraged when Edna’s spiteful granddaughter Eve Jenson deliberately kicked Batley, causing him to fall ill.

    Sadly, local vet Paddy Kirk was unable to save Batley and on February 11, 2002, Edna made the difficult decision to put him to sleep. He passed away peacefully in Edna’s arms, resting his paw on her.

    Those devastating scenes resonated with fans, and Batley (whose real-life name was Bracken) was voted Best Exit at the 2002 British Soap Awards.

    Batley’s name was last mentioned by Faith Dingle back in 2017, when she was ‘connecting with the spirits’.

    Tootsie – Edna Birch’s dog

    Tootsie came into Edna’s life when she was still grieving the loss of Batley. She was in need of a home after her previous owner had passed away, so Edna decided to adopt her.

    Tootsie had an eventful time in Emmerdale. In 2007 she ran off while out on a walk with Edna’s friend Pearl Ladderbanks and had an encounter with another dog. Two months later, Tootsie gave birth to two puppies, which came as a shock to Edna, who didn’t even realise her pooch was pregnant.

    The original acting dog Sky passed away in 2008, and was replaced by another dog called Dusty.

    In 2012, Tootsie was diagnosed with cancer after it was discovered on her spleen. She underwent several rounds of chemotherapy and went on to make a full recovery.

    But four years later, Tootsie was left without a mistress after Edna died following a short battle with ovarian cancer. She was temporarily cared for by Edna’s friend, Harriet Finch, but after that no one knows what happened to Tootsie.

    Hamish – Belle Dingle’s Shetland pony

    Hamish was Belle’s treasured Shetland pony, that was gifted to her on her fourth birthday. He lived in a stable at Wishing Well and was part of the Dingle family.

    Belle loved her pony and had 13 happy years with him, but in July 2015 Zak realised there was something wrong with Hamish.

    He rung Paddy to come and investigate, and the vet confirmed Hamish was suffering from colic. A few days later, he put to sleep with Belle by his side.

    Emmerdale pets: Dark Star – Kim Tate’s horse

    Horse-lover Kim Tate’s mighty stallion Dark Star was one of her favourites.

    Dark Star was Kim’s show horse, and they used to compete together in show jumping events. But tragedy struck in June 1992. Kim was pregnant with husband Frank Tate’s baby, and fell off Dark Star, which caused her to miscarry.

    The next year, Dark Star was killed when a plane crashed into Emmerdale village.

    Daisy – Marlon Dingle’s dog

    Marlon originally bought Dalmatian Daisy as a gift for his first wife, Tricia.

    After Tricia’s sad death in January 2004, Daisy stayed living with Marlon. She had a brush with death in 2012 after being knocked over by local vicar Ashley Thomas’s car. Daisy was injured, but thanks to the help of Paddy, she survived.

    Daisy met a sad and shocking end in May 2015 when Marlon’s third missus, Laurel, ran her over when she was drunk. The tragic dog died by the side of the road. Laurel tried to bury her body to cover up her involvement, but was caught in the act by Cain.

    Ice – Kim Tate’s horse

    Kim Tate’s magnificent white horse Ice has gone down in Emmerdale history as the soaps’ first pet to commit murder.

    When Lydia Dingle’s evil rapist Craig was found dead in the middle of a field the finger of suspicion fell on just about every member of the Dingle clan. But no one could have guessed who the true killer was.

    It turned out Craig had been kicked to death by Ice after he spooked the creature. Never underestimate the power of those hooves!

    Kim observed the whole thing and was persuaded by Cain to ride off on Ice instead of ringing for an ambulance. So you could kind of say she and Ice were in it together.

    Emmerdale pets: Minty – Isaac Dingle’s lamb

    Oh sweet little Minty stole our hearts. And Isaac Dingle‘s.

    Minty the runt of a litter of lambs who Isaac grew attached to. Moira warned her son it wasn’t likely Minty would survive, but Isaac managed to persuade Cain to let him keep him as a pet.

    Isaac absolutely doted on Minty and was beside himself when the lamb went missing at the 2024 summer fete. After bringing the whole village together for a frantic search, Kim Tate discovered Minty hiding out in a barn.

    He was returned to Isaac’s care, but his happiness was short-lived when Minty passed away. Isaac found his body at Butlers and accused his parents of murder. But that wasn’t the case, Minty had just died of natural causes.

  • What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Nicola is our new favourite as she gave Tom what for – and left Jimmy

    What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Nicola is our new favourite as she gave Tom what for – and left Jimmy

    Nicola King proved she is absolutely not backing down in Emmerdale tonight as she picked her team and made her feelings about Tom perfectly clear. Honestly, we’ve never much warmed to Nicola until now when we absolutely love her!

    Elsewhere, Liam was a bumbling wreck, but he managed to do the deed. Now he just has to live with the consequences.

    Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight.

    Nicola took on Tom

    Not preparing to sit around and let Tom get away with it, Nicola turned her attentions to grilling Amelia for information. But Tom caught them and insisted Nicola talk to him directly. He then sat her down for ‘a chat’ to get to know each other better.

    He tried to play patronising Mr Nice Guy, but Nicola did not buy that Belle imagined it all due to her mental health. She told him he was wasting his time, she could see through him and his lies. We’ve never liked Nicola this much before!

    Tom tried desperately to manipulate her, despite her standing up to him. But she gave it to him with both barrels insisting he was a wife beater – at which point Jimmy walked in. And once again took Tom’s side.

    Divorce him, Nicola. Now.

    Well, she didn’t quite go that far, but as Jimmy insisted she apologise to Tom, Nicola refused. And then she said her and the kids were moving to Laurel’s until Tom left. Tom offered to move out, but Jimmy told him to stay put, accusing Nicola of playing games.

    But Nicola was deadly serious insisting she would not have Tom around her children. Then she went to pack her bags.

    We never thought we’d say this, but we are totally Team Nicola. How can Jimmy not put his own children first? It’s beyond us. He is an absolute idiot.

    And go Nicola! Is anyone else thinking of a DS Foy and Nicola King spin-off series bringing abusers to justice? Just us? Okay then…

    Liam did the deed in Emmerdale tonight

    Liam was once again apologising to Chas who insisted he had to break up with Ella. He finally plucked up the courage to talk to her, but she jumped in and started banging on about their first Christmas together. He bumbled and stumbled but eventually told her it wasn’t working. He also lied there was no one else, which was probably a mistake.

    The sticking point now is that she has nowhere else to go so they have to keep on living together. He suggested staying with Chas, but as he hadn’t told the truth about their relationship that was a definite no-go as far as she was concerned. What a pickle, Dr C.

    Also in Emmerdale tonight…

    Did Mack set Ross up?

    There was trouble at the farm when Mack supposedly saw some men hanging out, so Ross went to sort it with a gun. But when he fired a warning shot to whoever it was, it was Moses who appeared, alongside Mack. Oops. But something stinks here – did Mack set him up to make him look bad in front of Charity? Mackenzie certainly didn’t waste any time laying it on thick to his wife about what a bad dad Ross was almost shooting his own son.

    Charity, of course, have a go at Ross about the incident, but he turned it round and commented that she kept trying to save him. Is there something in it? Does Charity still lust after Ross?

    Angelica returned

    Angelica is home, but she was worried about what people thought of her. Jimmy was Mr Perky Positive insisting it was a fresh start, but then Bob came across them and didn’t react well, particularly as she was wearing Heath’s hoodie.

    When Angel walked into the house to find Tom and Nicola arguing, she ran out, upset. Nicola found her on the bridge and tried to comfort her, promising she was going to get her daughter through this.

    Meanwhile, Bob was in the pub nursing a pint and drowning his sorrows. He doesn’t think he’ll ever be able to make peace with it. Laurel advised him he had to move on, but can he?

  • Who’s got it in for Tom? All the fan theories as his car is smashed up

    Who’s got it in for Tom? All the fan theories as his car is smashed up

    Tom King isn’t exactly a popular man in Emmerdale right now. Last night’s episode of the soap (Thursday, October 31) saw Tom face increasing pressure as the police investigated claims that he’d terrorised a child and disposed of vital evidence.

    This came as Nicola took Carl down the station to tell investigating officers all about Tom and the missing tablet.

    The police released Tom without charge, but he was more unpopular than ever – with Nicola growing increasingly convinced of his guilt.

    Emmerdale: Tom under fire as Nicola issues a warning

    Back at home, Nicola warned Tom that he had better behave – or else. With Angelica being released from the detention centre, she wanted a calm and safe environment. And if Tom did anything to violate that, he’d be out on his ear.

    Trouble didn’t take long to come calling. And, as the episode ended, Tom discovered that someone had smashed the windshield of his car with a brick.

    Fuming, Nicola took this as all the proof she needed that Tom was a bad influence on their household.

    But whodunnit?

    Who bricked Tom’s car?

    As the episode aired, fans took to social media to share their theories as to who smashed up Tom’s car. Jimmy immediately suspected the Dingles, but Tom has no shortage of enemies in the village… if he didn’t do it himself, that is.

    “I reckon it was Dawn or Rhona who threw the brick at Tom’s car…he did threaten to sue the vets,” suggested one fan.

    “I reckon it was Nicola that smashed Tom’s car window!” another guessed.

    “It was probably Carl that threw the brick at Tom’s car,” said a third.

    Meanwhile, another theory suggested that Tom smashed up his own car in order to garner sympathy from Jimmy and Nicola.

    “I think Tom put a brick through his own car window as he’s losing control,” one fan said.

    Who do you think attacked Tom’s car?

    Emmerdale tonight: Nicola won’t let it go

    As the story continues tonight (Friday, November 1), Nicola finds herself unable to let her suspicions slide. She may have promised Jimmy that she’d leave Tom be, but she’s still on a hunt for answers.

    As her dogged pursuit goes on, she clashes with Jimmy over what to do. Can she make Jimmy see sense?

    Nicola is not buying one second of Tom’s act and despite agreeing with Jimmy to leave it after the police freed him, Nicola is doing no such thing. In fact, she’s still on a quest for answers and will stop at nothing to get them.

    But as her pursuit of the truth puts more and more pressure on her marriage to Jimmy, how will this end? Is Tom going to win again? Or will Jimmy finally see sense?

    2. Liam’s under pressure

    After admitting his feelings for Chas at the pub’s Halloween bash and her saying she feels the same way, Liam is preparing to end his romance with Ella. He and Chas are hoping to finally reunite.

    However, things are complicated by Ella also getting fired from the vets! She thinks Liam has given her her job back at the surgery and they are totally loved up. So it’s fair to say Liam feels the pressure mounting up in tonight’s Emmerdale.

    Will he manage to go through with the break-up?

    3. Mack’s clash in Emmerdale spoilers

    Mack’s had a very busy week. From Ross returning and instantly making an enemy of him, to trying to support Billy at his unlicensed boxing matches, Mack’s had a lot on his plate.

    In tonight’s spoilers, Mack finds himself butting heads with Ross once again. As things come to a head at the farm while working together (why did Charity ever think that would be a good idea?!), will Mack and Ross ever settle their differences?

  • What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Tom was released but Nicola vowed to bring him down – and we love DS Foy!

    What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Tom was released but Nicola vowed to bring him down – and we love DS Foy!

    Emmerdale tonight saw the police close in on Tom – even though he was then released. Nicola is on to him and is going to prove it, and DS Foy also has his number. Soon enough there’s going to be nowhere to hide for Tom King – and we can’t wait.

    Meanwhile, Liam chose Chas, but failed to dump Ella, and Charity and Cain reached out to Ross, against their better judgement.

    Here’s everything that went down in Emmerdale on Thursday October 31.

    Foy has Tom’s card marked

    Tom had spent the night in the cells awaiting questioning. Meanwhile police were swarming the village on the hunt for the tablet. Jimmy was furious with Nicola, while Nicola was desperately trying to get through to Jimmy, but he was still firmly Team Tom.

    In questioning, Tom tried to talk his way out of things and insisted he felt terrible about shouting at Carl. DS Foy did not buy his act at all. We love this man.

    A bank statement and invoice were produced proving Tom bought several spy cameras. Tom admitted buying them and installing them, but said it was to protect them after being burgled twice. But every answer Tom gave, DS Foy had a comeback. This cop has got Tom’s number and he’s not going to stop until he brings him to justice. He is fast becoming our hero.

    And then Foy played his ace: the tablet has been found! (At this point you’d have found us dancing around our sofas with joy). And it has been traced to Tom. Although it’s broken, Foy is sure their tech team can recover the data.

    Nicola and Jimmy got good news

    Back at home, Nicola and Jimmy were still at loggerheads. But a call about Angelica interrupted them. She is coming home tomorrow. The couple eventually agreed to stop bickering and that they would go along with the outcome the police decided over Tom.

    Sadly for everyone, that seemed to be that Tom walked free. He was soon dropped back in the village having not been charged. Sigh.

    Jimmy was over the moon, Nicola not so much, and she made it very clear she did not trust Tom as far as she could throw him.

    And when Tom’s car was smashed up, Nicola insisted Tom had to go. But Jimmy took Tom’s side again and Nicola vowed to prove Tom was no good.

    So with both Nicola and Foy on the case, surely it’s only a matter of time before Tom is caught and punished.

    Liam chose Chas in Emmerdale tonight

    Liam was doing his vampire make-up for Halloween, when Chas arrived to get Eve’s bunny. Things were awkward but he was forced into accepting her invite to the Halloween bash at the pub.

    Liam later visited Chas to return the bunny and confessed he has been avoiding her. FINALLY, Liam and Chas admitted their feelings for each other. They agreed it would pass, but couldn’t resist and were soon kissing. Ella interrupted their kiss and Liam hid. But once she’d gone, Chas told Liam he had to make a choice.

    Liam said it was obvious: it was Chas every time. But as he tried to break the news to Ella, she revealed Paddy had fired her. And then he ended up giving her her job back at the surgery. Liam also chickened out of breaking up with her.

    When they turned up at the party at the Woolpack later, Chas was as stony faced as Morticia Adams (who she was dressed as) when she realised Liam had not ended things.

    Is this yet another non-starter for the pair? Too much false hope is getting us bored.

    Ross revealed more

    Aaron found out Rebecca had died three months ago. He was upset and broke the news to Victoria. She insisted they needed to find Seb – she has remembered she is his aunt and wants to bring him up herself. Another crusade for Vic then, eh?

    They found Ross in the pub who told them Robert had agreed to it all and signed the papers for Seb to move to Bristol. Ross claimed to have visited Robert, which is a bit odd because yesterday he denied any knowledge of Robert being involved. Is there more to Rebecca’s death story than meets the eye?

    Charity then tried to talk Ross out of fighting again. She told him to pull himself together for the sake of his son. Then she went into bat for him with Cain asking for a job for Ross – and a place to stay. Mack wasn’t happy about it, but Cain agreed, insisting there had better not be any trouble. Cue a text from Jade telling Ross to stop ignoring her and call. Sounds like trouble to us…

    Also in Emmerdale tonight…

    Belle lost hope

    Belle is doing better, but is still terrified about going to prison. She is convinced everyone will believe Tom and there’s no talking her out of it. She was completely defeated.

    Sam and Charity decided not to tell Belle about the developments in the village. But Sam couldn’t keep his mouth shut and gave Belle the hope she needed. Which proved to be a huge mistake when he later saw Tom free in the village.

    Cain can’t cope

    Moira’s been gone five minutes and Cain’s run ragged, running the farm and the garage and baking cakes for Isaac. They were as hard as rocks, but at least he could pull off the pinny!

  • What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Ross revealed what happened to Rebecca and Nicola did the right thing over Tom – for once!

    What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Ross revealed what happened to Rebecca and Nicola did the right thing over Tom – for once!

    In Emmerdale tonight (Wednesday, October 30), Ross Barton stirred up trouble in the Dales – and he’s only just got back.

    Considering the mere mention of him caused trouble between Charity Dingle and Mack – you have to give him props.

    Here’s what else happened in Emmerdale tonight.

    Emmerdale tonight: Ross explained everything

    Ross was standing over James Barton’s grave. Suited and booted in his usual tracksuit, he called out hello to cousin Matty. They shared a brief catch-up, where Ross indicated a lot had changed in his life…

    He then went to see Moses, but had no luck as he was with Matty and Amy. Despite this, he confirmed to Charity that he’d be sticking around to spend time with his son. Charity, safe to say, was not too keen.

    After a parenting lesson, Ross tried to get round Charity, but she only wanted answers. Ross weirdly then wanted a selfie for Moses. Seems strange for a first return…

    Ross gave his two pence on Mack, but Charity found out he and Rebecca had ended. Not only that… she is dead. Yes, Rebecca White has died. 

    Ross explained he was left with Seb one day while Rebecca went in for a routine operation. However he was then told that Rebecca’s heart stopped during surgery. Since then, he and Seb were close until Seb was taken to live with Rebecca’s aunt in Bristol. Ross thought it was probably for the best.

    Nicola reported Tom in Emmerdale tonight

    Jimmy headed over to the B&B to let Tom know he was welcome back to the King residence at any point. Nicola wasn’t too keen… rightly so!

    She was still angry at Tom, and came up with an idea. She and Carl headed to the police station, and Carl gave a statement about the missing tablet…

    The police said they’ll review the recording and get back when they have more information.

    Nicola got a shock when she got back to see Tom moved back in. However, the police turned up just in time to take Tom in for questioning.

    Jimmy took his anger out by ranting at Nicola, but she insisted the police needed to know. Will they make up? And is this finally Tom’s downfall?

    Moira left

    Matty and Moira were still happy to go away, despite the shock of Ross turning up. Cain was more than surprised to hear when they told him… not exactly the news he expected over his morning cuppa.

    He came around to the idea of their tour to visit Adam, especially with Moira’s agreement that she’d be back before her operation.

    Nevertheless, Cain was struggling with the prospect of her going away.

    As Moira and Cain comforted each other both were painfully aware this could be a rehearsal for a more permanent farewell

    Aaron covered for Billy

    Dawn was not happy to see Aaron at the pub. Billy told her to back off, but she was interested to hear what he had to say when he suggested Billy might be hiding something…

    After Billy’s stern look, Aaron backed down. Will the truth come out?

    Billy hid money from Dawn and offered pizza, she shared concern, but he reassured her they would be okay…

    When bringing the pizzas in, he was confronted by Ross, who warned him he was in great danger. Ross said he had to fight again. We wonder how this one will go…
