What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Smug Tom got a win and Pollard devastated Brenda multiple times

Emmerdale tonight saw Brenda Walker left distraught over and over again by Eric Pollard as he finally accepted he’d been scammed. And then she made a big decision about their future.

Meanwhile, Tom was smug when he called Angelica and realised she was on his side. How will he use this to his advantage?

Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight.

Brenda stood by Pollard – despite him breaking her heart in Emmerdale tonight

Brenda had decided they were in this together, but Eric was still kidding himself that he could sort it all out. He soon realised he couldn’t when he found out his advisor’s number was no longer in service. They have been scammed. And the police can’t do anything because Pollard invested the money of his own free will.

Brenda was devastated, especially as Eric tried to placate her by saying at least they had a roof over their heads. But Brenda pointed out the deeds were in his name and everything she has worked all her life for was gone.

Knowing he needs to make it right, Pollard decided his only resort was to sell the shop. But Brenda was more concerned with whether he only proposed because he was hyped up on his meds and Eric confessed that was very possible. She was once again distraught.

But later she insisted she was not leaving and she would support him every step of the way through his Parkinson’s. Although as Brenda is actually leaving, we all know that isn’t going to happen!

Tom won Angelica over in Emmerdale tonight

Angelica was heading back to school and all was happy in the King household now Tom was out of their lives. But Angel insisted Tom was still family.

Tom phoned home and discovered he was calling Angelica and not his uncle Jimmy. But he was also relieved to hear Angel was on his side as he reeled her in and told her they would keep speaking. Smug Tom was filled with glee when he realised he had someone else to manipulate.

Also in Emmerdale tonight…

Caleb took Anthony’s side

Ross and Steph got flirty in the Hide, but then Anthony arrived. Steph decided to fight his corner with Ruby again after she learned Ruby was ignoring Anthony. Anthony then managed to manipulate Caleb into taking his side too.

Steph and Caleb confronted Ruby (who was making her own Christmas wreath – not sure this is something Ruby would do), who was most hurt by her husband’s interference.

These two will never get on – especially when Ross finds out Mack stole the money (Credit: ITV)

Ross was under pressure – as Mack gloated

Ross went to see Charity, but encountered Mack instead. He wanted to pick Moses up after school and take him for a burger. But it turns out Moses has a VERY active after school social calendar with a birthday party and then bowling and then a sleepover at a mate’s.

Mack smugly told him he and Charity would be spoiling Moses this Christmas – but Ross still has no idea exactly how Mack got the money. Meanwhile, Mack splashed the cash on Charity’s Christmas presents wanting to spoil her rotten.

Elsewhere, Ross was feeling the pressure when both April and Jade rounded on him in the pub. April wanted to know why he’d ignored her since he’d been home and Jade wanted answers over her missing money.

Cut to Mack giving the cash to Amy for Chloe and Reuben. But he doesn’t want to see any pictures or know anything because it’s too hard being apart from his son. Probably should have remembered he had one, then shouldn’t he?

4 spoilers for tonight: Eric faces the music, and Ross gets a harsh warning

In Emmerdale spoilers for tonight, Pollard faces an angry Brenda, and Tom manipulates Angelica.

Fans have seen Eric’s health deteriorate lately. Just last week he opened up to Leyla on how he has put his entire savings into cryptocurrency. And things are only set to look worse.

Also as Tom is finally behind bars for his abusive behaviour, he still finds a way to control someone. This time, he turns his attention to someone close to home.

All of this and more in Emmerdale spoilers for tonight’s episode.

Emmerdale spoilers: Will Brenda forgive Eric? (Credit: ITV)

1. Eric faces the music

After realising there is no money in his account, Eric is terrified that he has made a huge mistake.

And now Brenda knows everything, Pollard has to prepare himself to face her anger.

But he isn’t giving up, as he is determined to make things right. However, those attempts don’t go down well.

Soon enough, Brenda is questioning if Eric even wanted to marry her, or if his decision was influenced by his medication.

As Brenda is devastated, Eric has to live with the heartbreak and turmoil he has caused. Can he make things right with Brenda? Or is this the beginning of the end for the couple, especially as we know Brenda is leaving the village.

2. Tom is still pulling strings

Just when everyone thinks Tom is finally out of the picture, he proves how manipulative he can really be.

The only other member of his family that he hasn’t had a chance to try and win over is Angelica.

With his niece having spent time away for causing the death of Heath, Angelica has been feeling that she is evil lately. And although Jimmy and Nicola have been trying to make her see this isn’t the case, it appears Tom is the one to get through to her.

Tonight, she finds herself being reeled in by his flattery, and soon enough she’s on Team Tom and believes his anti-Belle stance.

3. Mack taunts Ross

When Ross Barton returned recently, he made it clear to Mackenzie who Moses’ father was.

But as time has gone on, Ross keeps messing up. And Mack is the one who gets to pick up the pieces.

Nobody knows that Mack is the one who stole Jade’s money, and he is chuffed with himself knowing he can provide for his family more than Ross can.

This is something he wastes no time in taunting Ross with – leaving the Emmerdale bad boy furious.

4. Ross gets a warning

We’re sure that whenever Ross finds out Mack stole the money he will be out for revenge. But until then, Ross has to deal with the fact Jade blames him. And tonight she makes it extremely clear to him there are consequences to the money going missing.

She gives him a harsh warning, telling him what will happen if he doesn’t find a way to give her the ten thousand pounds.

And it seems that no matter how many times Ross assures her it wasn’t him who stole it – she does not believe him.

Will Ross manage to find the money? Or will those closest to him face the consequences?

Emmerdale Christmas preview: Tom’s final stand, Moira’s agony and a return

It’s the festive season in Emmerdale, but there is a distinct lack of good cheer in our Christmas preview because frankly, things look pretty bleak for just about everyone.

With Moira anxiously waiting the results of the biopsy on her tumour, Cain hiding his infidelity and the drama of the Tom and Belle storyline all looming, it doesn’t look like any of the Emmerdale residents are going to have a merry Christmas this year!

In fact, show boss Iain MacLeod has said 2024 will be one of the most “exciting” Christmases in the soap’s history.

He told Digital Spy back in September: “This Christmas, there is a huge surprise arrival on Christmas Day. As well as some life or death jeopardy on Christmas Day â€“ but obviously there will be festive brilliance as we do every year â€“ but I think it is one of the most exciting Christmases that I can remember on Emmerdale this year!”

He continued to promise “incredibly heartbreaking family drama with plenty of Dingle action. There is also some classic gothic antics at Home Farm â€“ some skullduggery!”

So what is happening this festive season? Let’s take a look in our Christmas preview.

WHAT IS GOING ON?! (Credit: ITV)

Kim’s Christmas surprise in Emmerdale!

At Home Farm, Kim’s pulling out all the stops for a Christmas to remember, while Will’s pretending to be loved-up but planning a meeting with Peter. But when Peter delays putting their takedown of Kim into action, saying there’s been a change of circumstance, Will’s annoyed and confused.

He’s even more cross when Peter won’t tell him who the third party is. Who’s pulling the strings? Is it Jamie Tate? Joe Tate? Caleb?! Will we find out over the festive period?

Meanwhile, acting on Peter’s orders, Will suggests to Kim that they renew their vows on Christmas Day and then feels guilty when she gets emotional.

We’re still not convinced everything’s as it seems with this storyline. Is Kim actually in on the whole thing? Will all the Tates return en-masse at Christmas – Joe, Jamie and Jean?! Is Frank really alive? Could Dave Glover rise from the dead? Is it Rose? (Please don’t let it be Rose). Tina Dingle? Lydia?! Frankly nothing would surprise us now!

Moira tells Matty the bad news (Credit: ITV)

Bad news for Moira

It’s time for Moira to get her pathology results back but Cain’s nowhere to be found. Poor Moira’s still convinced her cheating, useless husband will show up in time, and makes a last-minute phone call to Cain.

Having stayed away, full of guilt, Cain finally steps up but circumstances conspire against him and he misses the appointment.

When Moira eventually catches up with Cain, she tells him her results were fine. But she admits to a heartbroken Matty that she lied – she needs radiotherapy.

With Cain having let her down again, will Moira realise something’s very wrong with her marriage? Could this be the last Christmas for Coira?

Oh look, Cain’s let Moira down AGAIN (Credit: ITV)

Cain gets arrested!

Cain does have a good reason for missing Moira’s appointment, mind you. As he tries to make it to his wife’s side, he’s stopped by Jai’s badly parked car, and then has an altercation with PC Swirling which ends up with him being arrested.

He’s let off with a caution and heads off to go and get drunk which is where Liam finds him

Is Cain about to ruin Moira’s Christmas and also her entire life? (Credit: ITV)

Will Cain confess in Emmerdale this Christmas?

When Liam drops Cain off at home, Moira’s FUMING! She tells her husband she’d arranged a surprise party for his birthday the next day and he needs to pull himself together.

But Cain’s got one thing on his mind – confession! He wants to tell Moira exactly what he was doing when she was having her operation. Will he spill the beans? It’s definitely shaping up to be a miserable Christmas at Butlers.

The photograph brings back bad memories for Ruby (Credit: ITV)

Ruby flashback

With Ruby struggling with – well, everything really – things aren’t any happier in the Fox-Miligan household. Ruby’s still trying to pretend nothing happened with her and Cain, she’s getting used to Steph being around again, and dealing with memories stirred up by her dad’s arrival.

As Christmas approaches and Anthony starts reminiscing, Steph finds a photo of Ruby on her 16th birthday way back in 1992 – just a year or so before Steph was born. In a special flashback, viewers will see why Ruby’s pretending she doesn’t remember the day and why it makes her so uncomfortable.

We’re guessing whatever the memory is, it’s nothing good, and we reckon raking up the past isn’t going to help the Fox-Miligans look forward to a happy new year.

Ross gives up

And what a surprise, there’s no Christmas cheer for Ross either as he decides it’s time to give up trying to be a dad to Moses and let Mack take over.

Belle has found the strength she needs (Credit: ITV)

Ho ho hope for Belle?

BUT there might be some good news for Belle this Christmas as her domestic abuse ordeal comes to an end. Though before that happens, things get a bit tricky as imprisoned Tom worms his way into niece Angelica’s affections, convincing her he’s been wronged by everyone in the village.

As Jimmy and Nicola fret about their daughter’s support for Tom, are things about to get a whole lot worse for the Kings?

Emmerdale bosses have promised Belle will be in a much happier place by Christmas and with a special episode set for Tom’s trial this December, let’s hope she gets the justice she deserves.

The soap has also confirmed Denise Welch, Jack Ellis and Charles Dale will be starring in the special ep, so watch out for their appearances before Christmas too.

Who is returning to Emmerdale this Christmas?

After Iain’s comment that there will be a surprise return on Christmas Day, speculation is rife over who it will be. Many fans think Pete Barton will come home, now his brother Ross is settling in the village again.

Others think Joe Tate, who may or may not be plotting against Kim (could be just wishful thinking) will be back.

Some are hoping (still) for the Robert Sugden comeback they’ve been calling for. Just as John and Aaron are set for a happy Christmas together, could Robert come back to stir up the pot?

Emmerdale spoilers: Angelica grows closer to Tom as she prepares to make a public show of support for her cousin

In Emmerdale spoilers next week, Angelica grows closer to her cousin Tom King as she prepares to defend him in a video.

Following Tom’s arrest after he tried to flee on a ferry, it appeared that Tom had no-one left in his corner. With Amelia and Jimmy regretting their decision to stick by Tom, it seemed that he was fully alone.

However, Tom is not giving up yet and next week sees him manipulate his cousin Angel.

Full spoiler details for this story are below.

Emmerdale spoilers: Angel convinces Jimmy to visit Tom

Next week, Angel is determined to get her dad to read the letter from Tom. However, Jimmy is rattled by the letter and sees it as yet another attempt to manipulate them.

Angel isn’t finished there though, and she soon brings up Tom again. The emotional blackmail works and Jimmy is persuaded to pay Tom a visit.

During the visit, Tom turns on the crocodile tears. But Jimmy isn’t falling for it and tells Tom, he’ll only give him another chance if he changes his plea to guilty.

Tom refuses and turns the blame back on to Belle. This angers Jimmy as he realises that his nephew can never change.

Tom schemes again

Frustrated Ollie tries to convince Tom not to try another scheme in order to stop the trial. But his words don’t seem to land.

Later, Angelica is called over by the solicitor, who tells her he has a task for her. Worried about Angel’s ongoing affinity with Tom, neither Jimmy or Nicola realise she’s about to publicly post a video which she hopes will help his cause. Will she go through with it?

Emmerdale spoilers: Tom turns his manipulation to Angelica as his true colours are totally exposed

In a new Emmerdale spoilers for next week, Tom King turns his manipulation tactics to a different member of his family, as his luck continues to run out.

Viewers have been desperate for Tom to pay for his crimes for months, and the end is finally in sight.

The Emmerdale villain spent his relationship with Belle tormenting her – physically and emotionally.

Recent scenes have shown Tom begin to spiral in front of other people, and after he physically forced Amelia out of the house witnessed by Jimmy and a police officer, his time up?

He tried to escape the country, but Belle was cleverer than him and he got caught and carted off the jail. Amelia and Jimmy have disowned him and are refusing to see him, so Tom really has lost everything.

So when he turns his attention to another vulnerable character, has he found a new way to show his power?

Read below for full Emmerdale spoilers for this storyline.

Emmerdale spoilers: Tom manipulates Angelica

Angelica King has only just returned to the village, after doing time for causing the death of Heath Hope.

However, she has came back as a slightly different person, as she believes she is evil for what she did.

So when Tom is arrested, she feels she can relate to him. This leads to her making contact with him while he is in prison.

Obviously, Tom sees this as his way of getting things to go his way. It doesn’t take too long before Angelica finds herself reeled in and agreeing with his anti-Belle stance.

Belle also has to pass bad news on to Jimmy and Nicola that Tom has pleaded not guilty – what a shock!

With Angelica the only family member currently on his side, he tries to keep her team Tom.

When he convinces her to try and win Jimmy round again, will she do it? And will Jimmy start believing Tom’s lies once again?

Emmerdale fans are eager for the storyline to close with Belle getting the justice she deserves. And we know the end is coming, but will it be the right outcome?

What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Tom still isn’t done scheming and Anthony shared some bad news

Emmerdale tonight saw Tom King vow to keep fighting in his battle against Belle, with him instructing his solicitor to get Amelia back on side.

Meanwhile, Anthony returned and shared some sad news with his family, but Ruby refused to believe a word of it.

Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale on Friday November 29.

Amelia is struggling with what she’s put Belle through (Credit: ITV)

Emmerdale tonight: Amelia did something stupid

No, she hasn’t taken Tom back, thank God… The episode opened with Jimmy attempting to scrub the word “scum” from the front door. While Angelica wondered if it was about her, Nicola was quick to insist that it “was done by someone who hates Tom”. So that narrows it down then…

As Charity and Belle stopped by to say it wasn’t them, Jimmy took the opportunity to apologise to Belle for not seeing through Tom’s lies sooner. Charity said they didn’t blame him. She was soon distracted by Amelia in the distance and followed her to the church.

Sitting in the church, Charity was quick to realise that Amelia had been the one to spray ‘Scum’ on the door. Amelia said she knew it was stupid as Tom is not even there! Amelia just wanted to do something to make herself feel better as she felt so guilty for what she’d put Belle through by believing all of Tom’s lies.

Charity reassured Amelia that none of it was her fault, telling her Tom did a number on her â€“ he saw a young, single mum with no family, someone vulnerable who he could use. Amelia agreed, saying: “He was so lovely at first, then I saw the mean side to him and he was so clever at explaining that away.”

Later, Amelia confessed to Jimmy that she had been behind the graffiti and offered to help clean it off. She also apologised to Belle, who told her she forgave her and that they could all move on.

Tom’s not giving up (Credit: ITV)

Tom continued to plot from behind bars

In prison, Tom phoned his solicitor mate Ollie and threatened him to keep representing him. “Maybe the police need to know about you…” he snidely told him. He instructed Ollie to keep trying to get hold of Amelia.Â

Later, Ollie visited Tom and informed him that Amelia still won’t answer his calls and they haven’t been able to add her to his approved caller list. Tom was adamant that they had to keep trying though, and said: “Amelia is just upset, so capitalise on that. Say that I’m missing her, I don’t care, say anything. I just need her to be sat in that court supporting her innocent boyfriend, preferably with her daughter.” The twisted mind of Tom…

Ollie told Tom that he might get a reduced sentence if he pleads guilty, but Tom said he’d do no such thing and he vowed to keep fighting Belle. “It’s me against Belle – and a jury,” he said. “Think about it. My wife is a complete nut-job and she’s just come out of the loony bin. She’s not going to make a good impression on the jury and we’re going to make sure of it.” What has Tom got over Ollie and how long will Tom keep deluding himself for?

Steph was shocked by her grandad’s news (Credit: ITV)

Anthony shared some bad news

Ruby’s dad Anthony recently arrived to a hostile reception from his daughter. He returned in tonight’s episode and informed granddaughter Steph that he had prostate cancer and didn’t know how much longer he had left.

Steph told him him they’d make the most of every moment, with Anthony agreeing and saying, “now I really must make peace with your mother.”

However, Ruby was not pleased to see her dad back. After Steph revealed all about the prostate cancer, Ruby responded that she didn’t believe a word of it and walked off.

Later, Caleb and Steph tried again to encourage Ruby to clear the air with her dad, but she remained reluctant. What has happened between them that Ruby can’t get over?

Brenda is excited about the wedding (Credit: ITV)

Elsewhere in Emmerdale tonight

Eric continued to play dangerously

Following the engagement party, Brenda confirmed that her and Eric’s wedding will be taking place in January. She revealed that Eric is being super generous – wedding of her dreams followed by a round the world cruise.Â

Following the revelation that Eric had invested his money in cryptocurrency, Leyla encouraged him to quit while he was ahead. However, later, he phoned “Mikey” and asked for a short term loan, using his property as collateral. Uh oh, this one isn’t going to end well.

Chas got the sharp end of Ella’s tongue (Credit: ITV)

Ella didn’t hold back

Meanwhile, Chas and Ella met up. Chas informed Ella that her and Liam were going to go public with their relationship. Ella was angry as she told Chas that she would miss sneaking around. “It’s what you do best, secret affairs, you love it,” she said. She then went on to say: “You’ve got form as long as your arm, which means you’ll probably get bored of Liam and cheat on him too. I hope he breaks your heart first, if you’ve even got one.” Don’t hold back, Ella…

Fears for new fan favourite DS Foy amid calls to move him to the village

Sometimes in soaps fans become connected with recurring guest characters, and want them to stay longer. That’s exactly what has happened with Emmerdale detective DS Foy.

Over the last few weeks the policeman has made it his mission to bring Tom down.

From the very moment he heard Belle’s domestic abuse allegations, it was clear he believed her.

Fans want Emmerdale DS Foy to stay – but have concerns (Credit: ITV)

Detective Foy’s character

From fighting in her corner the whole way, even while Tom continued to scheme against them all, it’s no surprise fans are calling for DS Foy to be a regular character.Â

But as the fan requests continue, some have admitted they don’t want him to become too regular – purely because they love his character too much.

On a Reddit thread, Emmerdale fans discussed the potential of having DS Foy around. And they raised their fears.

It’s not uncommon for Emmerdale characters to begin as a much-loved person, but then as the storylines go on, change their behaviours to keep them relevant.

Sometimes the soap finds itself looking for ways to keep things dramatic, and in the process they may ruin the reasons we love certain characters or couples.

This is not what fans want for DS Foy.

Fans worry for Emmerdale’s DS Foy

The creator of the thread admitted: “He’s got to stick around, he’s brilliant!”

Not long after, many fans were agreeing, but they had their reservations.

One commented: “I agree that he is a great character – but the writers wouldn’t know what to do with him and we’ve already had the whole police officer living in the village thing with Harriet.”

Viewers will remember that Harriet lived in the village from 2013 up until her death in 2022.Â

Another fan responded, suggesting: “He doesn’t have to live there – he could just become a recurring character.”

While a third fan agreed they would love to see more of them, they worried the writers could turn him into a villain as they wouldn’t know what else to do.

“I like him. But that’s why I don’t want him to live in the village. They always make the coppers who live in the village dirty”, they wrote.

With Tom finally being caught out, we could see DS Foy’s time in Emmerdale begin to wind down, but hopefully this storyline isn’t the last we see of him.

Emmerdale fans rejoice as Tom King is taken down in a ‘really great’ plot twist: ‘Best episode in a long time’

It finally happened. Despite thinking he could run away, Emmerdale’s Tom King was stopped and arrested by DS Foy last night – in what some fans are calling the ‘best episode in a long time’.

Fans have been desperate for Belle to get the justice she deserved. And after Emmerdale released a trailer for this week’s episodes, many hoped it was a sign the end was in sight.

Earlier this week, Belle was given the good news that Tom was charged for his crimes. But knowing her scheming husband, she knew he would be up to something, and that he wasn’t going to go down without a fight.

Emmerdale Tom King was finally outsmarted by Belle (Credit: ITV)

Released on bail, Tom thought he could continue to manipulate Jimmy into letting him live there, but even his uncle had caught on to the man he really is. And after a long conversation with Belle, Jimmy knew he couldn’t let Tom back in his life.

With everybody turning their back on him, Tom decided he had to flee the village. After giving Amelia false information regarding where he was going, Tom set off.

But the Emmerdale villain couldn’t resist having another attempt at terrorising Belle when he spotted her on the street – and this proved to be his downfall.

Belle acted like she was letting him go, but in reality she slotted her own phone in his belongings, meaning he was now trackable.

Tom was then caught by DS Foy right before he got the chance of escaping, and Emmerdale fans are over the moon with the plot twist.

Fans react to Emmerdale Tom King’s arrest

Viewers took to X (formerly Twitter) to celebrate the ending of the episode.

One fan praised: “So happy Belle finally outsmarted Tom. She’s going to get the outcome she deserves.”

Another wrote: “That was the best episode of Emmerdale in a long time. Congratulations to all involved.”

“This plot twist is amazing. Belle is a legend for confronting Tom and putting her phone in his bag. Really glad everyone has found out how vile he really is,” a third penned.

A viewer expressed how happy they were that their theory was wrong. “I honestly thought he was going to force her into the car, pretend he was going to the police station but really take her somewhere else. I’m so glad it happened the way it did. Such a great twist.”

As Tom is finally behind bars, there’s still a chance he isn’t gone yet. As Belle said herself, she can’t see him ever pleading guilty.

Will Tom be back on our screens? Will he do the right thing and plead guilty?

4 Emmerdale spoilers for tonight: Anthony’s back, Eric’s taking risks and will we see Tom again?

In Emmerdale spoilers for tonight, Anthony is back with some huge news, and Eric continues to make risky decisions.

Recently Emmerdale welcomed two new members into the Fox-Miligan family; Anthony and Steph. Ruby may have wanted her daughter to stick around, but she was more than happy to get her dad to leave the village.

But tonight sees Anthony return, and he brings some huge news.

Also in tonight’s episode, the question remains; will we see Tom again? Last night (November 28) the villain finally got his comeuppance as a smart plot twist saw Belle use her phone tracker to take him down.

Find all of this and more below for Emmerdale spoilers for tonight.

Emmerdale spoilers 1. Anthony’s back

Despite Ruby telling everyone how much she does not want her father in her life, Anthony returns to the Dales.

But this time, he brings the news of his cancer diagnosis, leaving Steph stunned and devastated.

After assuring him he has her support, Steph hopes the news will help mend the fracture in their family. But when Ruby finds out, is she willing to put the past behind them?

We know her strained relationship with him comes from when he tried to force her to get a termination. And with fans theorising that something more sinister happened in her childhood, is there more to the story?

Even after the engagement party, Eric continues to take risks with his money. (Credit: ITV)

2. Eric continues to take risks

Last night viewers discovered just exactly why Eric suddenly has no issues with spending huge amounts of money.

As he surprised Brenda with tickets for a honeymoon cruise, many of those closest to him began to get suspicious – not Brenda, she just wanted to know if Jane McDonald would be there.

After revealing to Leyla that he has invested all of his savings into cryptocurrency, it looks like his risks are just set to continue.

Leyla tried to warn him it may be a scam, but Eric being Eric wasn’t having any of it, and was adamant it will eventually result in a big pay-out.

But as his risks continue, will Eric ever tell Brenda?

They may have been caught, but Chas continues to be resolute. (Credit: ITV)

Emmerdale spoilers 3. Chas remains determined

The truth came out to Ella last night about Chas and Liam’s relationship. Even though the couple had decided it was time to tell them, Ella’s stalking skills meant she managed to work it out first.

So now, Chas and Liam don’t have to hide their relationship, which should be a positive thing for them.

But with Ella’s history and fan theories suggesting she may take revenge, will their happy story last?

4. Will Tom be back?

He was convinced he was getting away, but Tom couldn’t help but try to terrorise Belle Dingle one last time before he ran, and that proved to be his downfall.

Tricking him into thinking she was letting him go, Belle actually slipped her phone in his things, which meant he could now be tracked.

As he was in the queue, about to board his new life, DS Foy arrived and arrested him.

But while this means he is behind bars, Tom is not the sort of person to go down without fighting, so could he make another appearance?

What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Tom thought he’d got away with it – until Belle took her revenge!

Emmerdale tonight saw Tom King’s escape plain foiled as Belle and DS Foy brought him down. But is it for good?

Meanwhile, Jimmy and Amelia both realised the error of their ways – about time – and Pollard’s secret was exposed.

Here’s everything that happened in a very eventful Emmerdale on Thursday November 28.

Jimmy saw Tom for what he is

Jimmy was struggling with understanding what had happened and still couldn’t quite believe Tom was guilty. But he soon realised he had to apologise to Belle.

Tom then arrived home and insisted he was prepared to fight Belle to clear his name. Jimmy asked him to just be honest if he wanted them to stay on his side. But of course Tom couldn’t stop lying.

Jimmy finally realised who Tom was and told him to pack his bags. Jimmy then went to see Belle. He apologised and told her he was ashamed of himself for not believing her.

Tom tried again and again and again to get Jimmy back on side, but Jimmy had finally seen the light. He told Tom he ‘disgusts’ him and once again threw him out. So Tom reverted back to his old tactic of pretending he was going to kill himself. But Jimmy saw through it straightaway and insisted it was over.

Tom lost it then and laid into Jimmy about being weak and stupid, he even said his dad Carl had thought the same. Jimmy told him: “You really are a chip off the old block”, referring to Carl King and his many, many crimes, his weakness, his bullying and his abusive nature.

Tom plotted to flee

Meanwhile, Amelia went to visit Tom and wanted answers over him being charged. But Tom wasn’t in any mood to talk and manipulate, he just wanted her gone. Tom then called Ollie and told him it was “time for plan B” – plan B was running away to Saudi Arabia.

Tom then told Amelia he wanted her and Esther to join him in Saudi Arabia once he was settled. Although she agreed, said she believed him and offered to help him get away, something in Amelia’s manner had changed – had she finally seen the light?

Tom stole Kerry’s car so he wouldn’t be tracked and told Amelia he was heading to the airport. She let him leave. But then she went to the Woolpack and told everyone Tom had done a runner.

Cain and Charity raced to stop him, but it turned out he had tricked Amelia to cover his back.

Tom and Belle – the final showdown

As he was driving along, Tom saw Belle walking and couldn’t resist pulling over. He told her she’d never get justice as he was running away – but one day he was coming back to make her pay. As she stood up to him, he couldn’t control himself and aggressively slammed her against the car.

Their confrontation saw Belle take none of his abuse as he tried even more to manipulate her. Belle had all the power as Tom told her: “Someone’s found her voice” – and it’s not before time.

It was Belle who walked away as Tom screamed after her that he loved her. But she just kept on walking. Yes, Belle.

DS Foy to the rescue again in Emmerdale tonight

Meanwhile, Cain and Charity realised Tom had conned everyone. At the same time he was meeting with Ollie who’d got him a fake passport and called him a cab to get him to a ferry.

Tom’s smug smile as he thought he’d got away with it was soon wiped off his face when DS Foy arrived at the ferry port!

It turned out during their confrontation Belle had slipped her phone into his bag. She gave the details to the police who tracked the device and rushed to catch him.

Tom tried to run, he screamed, he fought, he kicked, but there was no escaping justice. At last.

Ella caught Chas and Liam out in Emmerdale tonight

Ella was clearly growing suspicious of Chas and Liam and was making things very uncomfortable for them. She dug for dirt with Mandy and found out Chas isn’t a fan of girl code, making her even more sure of what she thought she knew.

Chas soon told Liam they had to come clean to Ella, but they decided to spend lunchtime having a quickie instead of confronting the situation there and then. And Ella was determined to catch them out.

She burst into Liam’s and confronted him, forcing them to tell her the truth – or rather reveal it in scantily clad clothes. Ella launched into them both for lying and cheating and treating her like “muck”. Not strictly fair, but still. The truth is out now.

Pollard in peril in Emmerdale tonight

Pollard was pulling out all the stops for the engagement party and Leyla was excited. The bash then got underway at the Hide and Eric made a speech, surprising Brenda with a first class round the world cruise for their honeymoon.

As everyone speculated why Eric was suddenly splashing the cash when he has a reputation for being tight, Leyla noticed Pollard was not quite right. She followed him home and he confessed he’d invested everything – his entire savings – in cryptocurrency and his account was empty.

A quick call to the helpline saw Eric’s mood pick up, despite Leyla’s concerns he was being scammed. But later he made a huge gamble when he decided to invest some of Brenda’s cash as well. This will all end in tears, mark our words.
