EMMERDALE fans call out a glaring blunder after Tom King committed his first murder.
The abusive vet – who is played by actor James Chase in the ITV soap – killed Piper the dog in Friday night’s episode in another sick ploy to get wife Belle Dingle under his control.

But Tom has been determined to win her back, playing the victim in the village while secretly monitoring Belle via a series of hidden cameras in her cottage and trackers on her.
He turned up at her brother Sam’s birthday party last week and she told him to leave her alone and get out – publicly.
And he did leave and in a fury he drove to the Dingle house and found Piper there on the lane – and he drove at and over her.
He then took her back to the village and calmly waited with the poor suffering pup until he spotted Belle leaving the pub, then rushed over and claimed to have just found her.
After operating on the dog with the help of Rhona, Tom brought Belle in to see Piper and told her that she needed to be put to sleep.
She said goodbye and then left the room, unable to watch while Tom injected her.
Tom then comforted Belle outside, reassuring her that Piper didn’t suffer and was now at peace – but he overplayed his hand when he tried to manipulate her.
Realising he killed her, she confronted him and then exposed him for abusing Piper at the cottage in Wales in front of Rhona.
Tom tried to shut her up, but she told him that she would never forgive him.
And later in the cottage, Belle told Tom: “You are nothing but a sick manipulative bully, and I can’t be anywhere near you – do you understand?
“Get out of my house.”
Facing him down, she told him she was done with him and she wanted out – but he threatened her in return.
Over the years the likes of EastEnders, Emmerdale and Coronation Street have all tried to try outdo each other with their outlandish plots in a bid to keep us tuning in each week. But here are some of the darkest that had fans in shock…
Will Belle escape? And how will Tom’s behaviour get even worse?
Meanwhile, fans noticed a huge blunder relating to Tom’s attack on Piper.
Taking to a Emmerdale Facebook fan page, one person pointed out how CCTV nearby could have captured him running over the pup.
They wrote: “Seeing as Wishing Well Cottage is next door to Eric’s house, could his doorbell camera have captured Tom’s most vile and cruellest act?
“Certainly hope so, although a horrible experience for Eric and Brenda if they check the footage.”
Another added: “What a good thought.”
A third penned: “Yes! It would show Tom was the one that run her over.”
Now fans are convinced Tom is about to get caught out, following his glaring mistake.
But after Tom has claimed his first victim of murder, can he be stopped?
Emmerdale airs weeknights on ITV1 and ITVX at 7.30pm.
