One eagle-eyed Emmerdale fan has pointed out a very special link to soap history as recent scenes saw Will Taylor pawn his watch in an attempt to pay off his blackmailer.
This came during a stressful week for Will. First of all, his mystery blackmailer sent him a bouquet of flowers and a series of messages indicating that someone knew what he had been up to – sleeping with ex-wife Rose, and then forcing her out of the village.
His stress only worsened when he was emailed sexually explicit deepfakes of himself and Rose. As he stumbled to cover his tracks and pay off his blackmailer, Will resorted to desperate measures the raise the funds.
Over a pint with Jimmy, he explained that he had pawned his watch. He then revealed his plan to use the cash to trick his blackmailer into revealing themselves.

Emmerdale fan spots link to soap history
As Will decided to pawn his watch to pay off his blackmailer, one Emmerdale fan noticed a pointed reference to a moment in Tate history.
“Oh we do love it when Emmerdale recognises its history… Will is pawning a watch. A watch that Kim bought him. Kim will notice absence of said watch. This has been a source of trouble in 1992 and 2022! First with Neil and then again with Jamie,” this viewer pointed out.
Neil Kincaid was Kim’s bit-on-the-side as she cheated on husband Frank. And, as pointed out above, it was a watch which led to their affair being uncovered. Spotting Neil wearing an expensive watch he had assumed was destined for his own wrist, Frank realised what Kim had been up to – and flogged Neil for his trouble.

More recently, Will’s watch prompted a blazing row between the Tates and the Dingles when it went missing – with Will claiming that groundskeeper Sam had stolen it.
Once again, a wristwatch is at the heart of Tate/Taylor trouble. Could this one be Will’s downfall?
We were all rather a little creeped out after last night’s episode of Emmerdale (Tuesday, September 3), as Will fell victim to a deep fake image.
Receiving an email and message from his tormenter, Will showed a horrified Jimmy a video of “himself” made with AI.
But, fans have now accused the soap of copying a very similar storyline from a very famous cobbled street…

AI Will ‘has proof’
Fans will know by now that Will is being tormented by a mystery person. And, this person clearly knows that he slept with Rose.
At first he received a bunch of roses with the message ‘I know what you did’ on the card. Will being the hopeless romantic that he is then passed the bouquet over to Kim, making out that he bought them for her! Who said romance is dead?
Things started to get more intense last night though as Will and Jimmy both received a ‘surprise’ work email. This included deep fake porn images with Will and Rose’s faces on.
Will then received a ping on his phone and was horrified to find that an AI video had been made of “him.”
The video saw technology that very spookily looked just like Will declare: “I don’t need proof, I have proof.” At this point, Jimmy urged his mate to go the police as the tormentor clearly wasn’t messing around.
We honestly don’t think we’ll be able to sleep at night if we ever see another version of AI Will or anyone else again, so for our sake we hope that Will goes to the police sooner rather than later!
Looks familiar, right? (Credit: ITV)
Hold on, fans have seen this storyline on soap before…
Fans of both Emmerdale and Coronation Street have now realised that two current storylines on both of the soaps are very similar. And, they’re now accusing the Dales based soap of copying its rival.
Will’s deepfake storyline was recently done over the cobbles in the form of Abi being the victim of deepfake videos at the hands of Stefan Brent.
Corrie has also aired scenes of Leanne Battersby’s late son Oliver in AI form.
One fan commented: “Deep fake AI, sorry Emmerdale, I didn’t realise I was watching Corrie [bleep.]”
Another viewer asked: “Why are they copy and pasting the deep fake story from Corrie?”
A third viewer added: “What is it with the ITV soaps being obsessed with AI and deep fakes may I ask? It’s like they want their shows to get axed.”
A fourth fan joked: “AI Will is a product of the Institute from Corrie. You only get him when you’re a Level 14.”

The couple’s marriage has been pushed to the brink with Moira’s refusal to get help for her problems, and Cain is worried what she might do next.
It’s not long before Moira’s temper rears its ugly head again when she spots Cain bantering with sister-in-law, Ruby. Moira sees Ruby playfully squeezing Cain’s arm and jumps to the conclusion they’re having an affair! From that second one, Moira has only one thing in mind – revenge!

Over in the Dales tonight, Will and Jimmy enjoyed a little natter over some pizza as they tried to put an end to Will’s torment.
Elsewhere, Moira whisked Cain away to the bedroom to restore the spark in their marriage.
Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight on Tuesday, September 3.
Jimmy received a surprise email… (Credit: ITV)
Emmerdale tonight: Deep fake Will
Jimmy and Will have a little bromance brewing it seems as they try to figure what on earth is going on… Just who is tormenting Will?
Boycotting the salad and having a slice of pizza instead, Will opened one of Jimmy’s work emails and got a right fright when he saw a deep fake porn video with his and Rose’s faces on.
After this initial shock, Will then showed Jimmy a video of “himself” created with AI… and it was just about the most traumatising thing we’ve ever seen.
Jimmy then encouraged Will to go the police because clearly this tormenter knew what they were doing. But, will Will take Jimmy’s advice?
Moira and Cain’s bedroom antics
So, we all know that Moira and Cain’s relationship has hit rocky waters recently… what with Cain failing to recognise that his wife is actually rather ill.
Well, with Cain finding out that Moira’s blood tests are tomorrow, Moira tried to put a smile on both of their faces by leading Cain upstairs.
After a moment of afternoon sex, Moira made Cain promise that they would continue to talk to each other no matter what her diagnosis was. Cain agreed but also made a promise to keep having steamy moments of passion with his wife for years to come. Nothing to worry about in that department then!
Belle nicked Tom’s tablet (Credit: ITV)
Emmerdale tonight: Tom’s tablet terror
Taking Nicola’s keys, Belle snuck into her house and nicked Tom’s tablet in a bid to get her hands on the explicit photos of herself before Tom leaked them.
However, Tom soon caught wind of Belle’s plan after spying on her through the secret camera.
As Belle went to confront him in the pub after realising that Tom had stolen HIS tablet back, nobody was very sympathetic. Amelia then covered for Tom and explained that Tom couldn’t have taken it as he’d been with her for most of the day… LIES. ABSOLUTE LIES.
Amelia and Tom – ew! (Credit: ITV)
Amelia’s icky romance with Tom
At the start of the episode, Amelia headed off to Birmingham to see her dad in prison, rejecting a lift from Chas.
However, she soon returned rather quickly and was seen in the pub, lying for Tom’s sake.
She then revealed that she and Tom were an item although it was early days for them both.
Belle was horrified by this revelation (and honestly we were too), and warned Amelia to be careful.
Tom then gave Amelia a present for Esther but told her that she shouldn’t be so touchy-feely with him in public as to not make things worse with Belle.
Nate broke the news to Tracy
Nate popped by the shop and tried to speak to Tracy about his new job offer.
Tracy told him that she already knew what he was about to say, wrongly assuming that he’d gotten a new gf.
Nate then awkwardly revealed that Tracy had gotten the wrong end of the stick and that he was actually considering taking up a job in Scotland… AWKS!
In Emmerdale spoilers for tonight, brave Belle makes a public stand against Tom. But there’s a shock store when Amelia announces she and Tom are now an item.
Elsewhere in Emmerdale on Tuesday September 3, Will falls victim to a deep fake porn scam. And can Nate and Tracy admit their true feelings to one another?

2. Belle confronts Tom
Later, Tom is in the Woolpack sipping when Belle storms in. In front of everyone at the pub, Belle confronts Tom over the tablet and lets everyone know the kind of man he is.
Chas watches on as her cousin continues to lay into Tom. Why on earth Chas hasn’t twigged that Belle is being abused is frankly ridiculous. But it seems she, just like everyone else, thinks Tom is innocent and that Belle is losing the plot.
Tom is clearly unnerved by Belle’s outburst, but can he find a way to twist the truth? Or is he about to get help from unexpected ally?

3. Amelia reveals she’s Tom’s new girlfriend

The young barmaid explains it’s early days and she and Tom have only been together a couple of weeks. Lydia is shocked by what she’s hearing and makes her disapproval clear.
But that’s nothing compared to the horror Belle feels. She knows Tom’s true nature and is terrified for Amelia’s safety. Is history about to repeat itself?

There’s another shock in store when Jimmy shows Will an email that’s arrived in the work account inbox. It’s a collection of pornographic images with Will and Rose’s faces on them.
Jimmy insists they need to go to the police and report the crime, but Will is scared Kim will find out he cheated on her with Rose.
5. Will is targeted again
Will is hit by a further deep fake video. The incriminating footage is sent through to his phone, which makes Will realise his blackmailer isn’t going to go quietly.
This is more than just a scare. But what does the tormentor want in exchange for their silence? And can Will find a way to appease them before his whole world is ripped apart?

6. Nate and Tracy hide their true feelings
Nate has been offered a job up in Scotland and has less than 24 hours to decide whether to accept.
With the deadline looming, Nate meets with estranged wife Tracy in the cafe and shares his news. She’s obviously surprised and clearly upset about the thought of him moving far away from Frankie.
But neither Tracy or Nate are willing to admit how much they still care for one another. Nate walks away from their chat, masking his sadness. Is it too late for them now?
In next week’s Emmerdale spoilers, anxious Will prepares to come face-to-face with his mystery blackmailer. He arranges to meet with the tormentor just outside the village.
But things don’t go to plan when Will gets caught up in the blaze at Butlers barn. Will this mean he misses his meeting? And how grave will the consequences be?

Someone is out to get Will in Emmerdale spoilers
Will’s past sins have come back to haunt him. Dawn has disowned him after discovering he lied about Rose’s disappearance. His marriage to Kim is on the rocks, and now Will has a blackmailer on his case.
It all started with a string of threatening messages, which Will was convinced were being sent by Rose. But that wasn’t the case. Will discovered Rose was in Ibiza and he was back at square one.
The blackmailer then upped the ante, sending photoshopped pornographic images of Will and Rose. A further deep fake video arrived, and Will’s tormentor demanded a hefty £10k for the silence.
Will is refusing to go to the police through fear of Kim finding out he cheated with Rose. He’s also stressing where he’ll find the funds to pay this person off. But his extortionist isn’t going to back down until they get what they want.
The identity of Will’s blackmailer remains unknown (Credit: ITV)
Will prepares to meet his fate
Will is on edge as he waits to hear again from the blackmailer. But, despite his fear, he’s determined to find out who’s got it in for him.
Preparing to meet his fate, Will makes contact with the enemy and agrees to hand over the money.
Soon a nervous Will is sat in a lay-by waiting for his blackmailer to show. But events take an unexpected turn when Caleb comes rushing over. He informs Will of the drama unfolding at Butlers.
There’s a fire raging in one of the barns and Moira and Ruby are trapped inside! What will Will do now?

In the mayhem, Will ends up missing his drop and the blackmailer is not happy!
They call Will, leaving him a threatening message that sends chills down his spine. Struggling to control his fear over what his tormentor might do next, Will must also support the Dingles at the barn fire.
Emmerdale tonight saw even more threats from Tom despite him and Belle separating, with him saying he will release personal images of her.
Elsewhere, Will left Jimmy lost for words (for once) after he shouted down the phone at his mystery caller, which he thought was Rose.
It’s never quiet in the Dales, here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight on Monday, September 2.
Tom threatened Belle (Credit: ITV)
Emmerdale tonight: Tom’s threats
Emmerdale tonight featured several developments in the Belle and Tom storyline despite their separation. Belle popped into the shop, where she met Tracy, who asked whether she and Nate had been spending time together.
Belle denied it but looked visibly nervous to be out alone. Tracy had to go outside to direct a delivery driver and Tom walked in. It looked as though both he and Belle had decided to make use of Tracy’s special deal on pasta.
Tom told Belle that he was a “good guy,” (hmm) and that he was making Jimmy and Nicola pasta for letting him stay at their house. He kept telling Belle that he’s nice, which caused Belle to grow suspicious.
She asked whether he had been spying on her emails as she had earlier received one saying there was nothing to disclose with Clare’s Law.
Tom then suggested she should check her passwords and be careful about photos. Alone, Tom suggested that Belle was hearing voices and that no one would believe her. Belle then fled the store.

Belle worried
After leaving the store, Belle ran into Paddy and told him she ran into Tom. Paddy suggested that Tom is actually trying his best and that she should go easy on him.
Feeling like she was going mad, she later entered the pub and looked pale and tired. Jimmy and Chas commented that she looked ill and should go lie down. Tom, who was enjoying a drink with Jimmy, offered to walk her home.
Belle left hurriedly and denied Tom’s request.
Later, she tried to access her private photos and discovered that the password had changed. Belle got angry and threw her laptop…
Will Tom share them around?

Will shocked Jimmy
Tonight, Will and Jimmy met up to try and work out who Will’s mystery caller is. Jimmy suggested it could be Caleb, as he’s after their business.
Will thought it was Rose after their recent drama. He then walked into the shop to interrogate Ruby and figure out whether she was still in contact with Rose.
Ruby denied and wiped her hands clean of all drama. Will wasn’t satisfied with this and decided to meet up with Jimmy and call the mystery person.
Without knowing their identity, Will shouted down the phone to the person, as if they were Rose. Jimmy looked physically shocked and suggested he calmed down.
Later, Will met up with Jimmy and showed him a video of Rose in Ibiza. He admitted the mystery caller couldn’t have been her as they dialled with an English number.
Will was still undecided, but in the meantime decided to head over to Billy’s and offer money for the kids.
Billy again refused and told Will to keep his money and stay away.
Kim met up with a financial advisor (Credit: ITV)
Kim’s secret meeting
Afterwards, Will and Kim agreed to a date night while at their house. Kim emphasised to Will that they should both enjoy life while they have the chance.
Will seemed to agree and dressed up to the nines.
Elsewhere, Kim met someone else before their date. She introduced her guest as a financial advisor called Peter after they bumped into Vic at The Hide.
What could she be up to? And what is she hiding from Will?
Nate’s dilemma
Nate opened up to Mack and revealed that he had been offered a new engineering job, but would need to move away if he accepted. The decision had to be made the next day, but he was torn.
The opportunity would leave him with more money, but Mack reminded him he’d miss out on Frankie’s upbringing.
Mack asked whether he had told Tracy and if there was an opportunity to make amends with her. Nate initially refused, but later admitted he needed to talk to her before he left.
Aaron and John give into their desires (Credit: ITV)
Vic misses John
Aaron was cornered by Vic as he stopped by The Hide. Vic apologised for shouting at him and admitted that she missed John. She asked Aaron to speak to him and suggested that he should make up with Moira.
Vic said it was hard to see Aaron and John together, but Aaron said it was a one-time thing and probably wouldn’t continue. Vic wanted John to stick around rather than move as she has grown close to him.
Later, Aaron relayed this to John who grew angry. He accused Aaron of being a messenger, but he calmed him down quickly. Shortly after, the couple gave into their desires.
Birthday girl
Excitement grew in the Dales after Amelia turned 18. She discussed her celebrations with Chas and said she was excited to have her first legal drink at a bar.
Amelia received many happy returns, but seemed most happy to receive Tom’s.
In the pub later, Tom and Amelia share a flirty look.
Emmerdale’s Will Taylor has been receiving several super creepy and strange messages and phone calls following the departure of his ex-wife Rose from the Dales.
Previously Kim and Will tried to get rid of Rose by giving her money and leaving her on the roadside, but his daughter Dawn saved her mum and took her to the airport.
Having been uncovered, Dawn and her husband Billy have distanced themselves. Now, someone has been targeting Will. But, could it be Kim?
Theories suggest that Kim could be behind Will’s mystery calls (Credit: ITV)
What happened to Will?
In tonight’s episode (Monday, September 2) several clues were released as Will and Jimmy tried to figure out who was behind the calls.
Will showed his mysterious texts to Jimmy, who suggested that Caleb could be behind it as he wanted to get his hands on their Haulage company (a fairly reasonable guess!)
After confronting Ruby in the shop and discovering that she has nothing to do with Rose, Will ruled her and Caleb out of potential callers.
He came to the conclusion that Rose was behind his and rang the mystery number in a fit of rage. Later, he discovered that Rose was in Ibiza (lucky for some) and the number had called on an English number.
He accepted that Rose wasn’t behind his calls, but was nervous about how it could affect Will and Kim’s relationship.
After all, the caller knows that Will and Rose shared a kiss before she left the Dales.
Could Kim know this and want revenge on Will? We’re so hoping so! Could a return of the ‘old Kim’ be on its way?

Who’s this Peter guy then? Is Kim plotting?
Elsewhere, Kim suggested she and Will enjoy a date night. She got weirdly reflective and told Will they should enjoy life after so closely losing it.
Will seemed comforted by Kim, but she had a strange look on her face. The look suggested she knew something that he didn’t.
Before their date, Kim headed down to The Hide with a man who she introduced to Vic as a financial advisor. This guy was called Peter… She ordered them both a wine, which they decided to take on a walk to talk business. Looks like they had something to celebrate…
It is not known what they were talking about, but it could be Kim making arrangements. Kim obviously has access to Will’s businesses and money so…
Could this plan be an arrangement to get her hands on Will’s assets following his cheating scandal? Is she Will’s tormentor?
In tonight’s exciting Emmerdale spoilers, Will is still being targeted by a mystery blackmailer. He’s convinced Rose is behind the campaign and issues his ex a threat. But a shock discovery sends Will spiralling even further.
Also in Emmerdale on Monday September 2, Belle fears she’ll never escape Tom’s clutches. And, Nate has to decide whether to leave the village for a new life in Scotland.
It’s all going on!

Someone is after Will in Emmerdale spoilers
1. Will’s life is falling apart
Will is cutting a rather lonely figure in the wake of Dawn’s departure. His daughter moved her family out of Home Farm after revealing she knew about Will’s role in Rose’s disappearance.
Viewers had been left wondering whether Rose had met a sinister fate after Will and Kim forced her out of the village. But it then transpired Dawn had known all along what happened to Rose, and that Will was lying.
Rose is still alive and well, but as far as Dawn is concerned, Will is dead to her. He’s been left alone at Home Farm to think on his sins. But if losing his family wasn’t bad enough, Will is now being targeted by an anonymous blackmailer.

2. Will accuses Rose of tormenting him
As the threatening messages keep coming, Will is certain his tormentor can only be Rose. He decides to take matters into own hands and call the mystery number.
Will is raging as he tells the person on the other end to give it up, while Jimmy watches on, shocked by his mate’s brazen approach.
Will reckons he’s done enough to get “Rose” off his case. But the plot thickens when Will then sees a video of his former wife living it up in Ibiza. It’s then he realises the phone he called didn’t ring with an international dial tone, meaning Rose can’t be the blackmailer after all.
The discovery leaves Will and Jimmy reeling, and baffled by who it could be. Just how far is this person willing to go to wreck Will’s life?

Belle’s week gets off to the worst possible start when she learns her Clare’s Law application has been unsuccessful. This means there will be no further disclosure on Tom.
Reading the email, Belle breaks down, while Tom watches on from his cameras. Knowing this means he’s vindicated, the evil vet revels in Belle’s distress.
Afterwards, Tom delivers a coded message to his estranged wife. This alerts her to the fact he knows about her private emails.
But Tom isn’t done there as he issues Belle with a sickening threat.
4. Tom threatens Belle with revenge porn
Tom reminds Belle he’s still in control and threatens to expose explicit images of her.
The thought of Tom making the pictures public makes Belle freeze with fear. She’s aware of what Tom is capable and it terrifies her.

Emmerdale spoilers: Nate has big news

5. It’s decision time for Nate
The mystery of Nate’s secret phone calls is revealed when he tells Mack he’s been offered a job in Scotland.
And he hasn’t got long to decide to what to do – they need an answer by tomorrow!
If Nate accepted the role it would mean moving thousands of miles away from daughter Frankie and it would scupper any chance of him and ex-wife Tracy reconciling.
Nate is clearly torn, but what will he decide to do?
This Emmerdale review might be a bit prickly, as that’s exactly how we’re feeling after this week’s episodes!
Because everyone’s just been SO annoying.
Whether it’s sanctimonious Dawn, stubborn Cain, mouthy Mack, or gullible Jai, hardly anyone has impressed us this week.
Here’s who we’ve got beef with in this week’s Emmerdale review.
Dawn’s annoyed with her dad (Credit: ITV)
Dawn’s whining – again
We were very disappointed in Will Taylor when he gave into temptation and slept with ex-wife, Rose. So it’s a bit of surprise to all of us that we’re now feeling a little bit sorry for him. A teeny, tiny bit.
Because the flashbacks explaining what happened with Rose just made everything way more complicated. Here’s the story as far as we understand it: As part of her deal with Ruby, Rose (accidentally) drugged her addict daughter.
Will and Kim told her to leave the village, trying to protect Dawn from the truth about her mother. Dawn happened to drive past, took her mum to the airport, and pretended she was missing.
Now Dawn’s angry with Will for thinking Kim might have killed the mum she knew was alive, and for not contacting Rose directly when she lied that Evan needed a bone marrow transplant. In short, she’s annoyed about two things that didn’t actually happen.
And it’s a bit odd to pretend she doesn’t know how far Will and Kim are prepared to go to protect their family – has Dawn forgotten Malone? The man she killed?
It seems Dawn has indeed had a Moira-style memory lapse when it comes to her own guilty conscience. She’s ignoring the fact that Will covered up her crime, and Kim stepped in and sorted it all out, getting rid of the body when it looked like it was about to be discovered.
So frankly, we think it’s a bit late for Dawn to start getting all holier than thou about the morals of her dad and step-mum. (We are still cross with Will about the whole Rose thing, mind you.)
It’s obvious to everyone that something’s not right with Moira (Credit: ITV)
Cain’s a big let down in our Emmerdale review
Moira’s health issues worsened this week – her lapses are becoming more frequent, she had a seizure and slept in the barn, she’s forgetting just about everything, and her behaviour is wildly unpredictable. It’s obvious to just about everyone from her sister-in-law Chas to her young son Isaac that something’s not right.
But apparently, not to her husband Cain. Nope. He’s just too busy stomping around, throwing accusations in Moira’s face and, as Chas said, rolling his eyes, to consider his wife could be really poorly. Even when she told him she was ill, he didn’t take her seriously.
We’re worried Moira’s in trouble and things could take a terrifying turn for the worse – but will Cain even notice? He’s really let poor Moira down this time.
We’re sorry the bull didn’t finish Mack off (Credit: ITV)
Mack’s mouthing off
We are constantly bewildered by Mackenzie Boyd. He’s like an overgrown toddler in a lumberjack shirt. His ridiculous feud with John Sugden is exhausting and him marching round the village telling everyone it was John who let the bull out, made us roll our eyes, Cain-style.
We’re just disappointed that despite his dramatic collapse and him being carted off in an ambulance, Mack seems to be unscathed by his bull adventure. Just as he was was totally fine after being stabbed or plunging over a cliff in a car, or any of the other disasters he’s experienced.
Ah well, maybe next time, eh?
He’s not your friend, Jai (Credit: ITV)
Jai’s an idiot
Almost everyone in the village has warned Jai not to trust Caleb. But apparently, Jai is still *checks notes* trusting Caleb.
Well. Sort of.
After an intervention from Arthur, Jai did tell Laurel he’s not going to claim half her house. But he’s in it up to his neck with Mr Miligan and we can’t wait to see him discover just how untrustworthy Caleb can really be.
Aaron and John are an unexpected joy (Credit: ITV)
Unexpected treats
It’s not all bad though – there were some joyful moments in this week’s episodes. Gabby and Vinny are super cute together and we’re hoping they stay the distance. We’re glad to see Arthur back and looking out for his mum.
We loved John’s moment of being a protective big brother to Victoria, and while we’re on the subject of John – we are surprisingly and unexpectedly loving his fling with Aaron. It’s nice to see both those big grumpy lads cracking a smile for once!
