EMMERDALE has revealed a bombshell surprise for fans as Tom King’s sick and twisted plans for wife Belle Dingle takes a disturbing turn.
The evil vet – who is played by actor James Chase in the ITV soap – has been torturing Belle for months but when she escaped him he took his controlling abuse to the next level.
Tom only pretended to kill Piper to torture wife Belle in EmmerdaleITVHe handed her over to her new family, claiming Belle had been abusiveitv
Viewers watched in horror last week as Tom ran over Belle’s dog Piper with his car – before pretending to try to save her life.
He then convinced Belle that he had dumped her body so she would seem unstable to her family when he turned up with her in a wicker coffin to bury.
However in tonight’s episode the even more disturbing truth was revealed – Piper is alive and Tom did it all to torture Belle even more.
But as Belle visited Piper’s grave, there was a shock away from the village.
He was seen getting out of his car and picking up a very much alive Piper and handing her over to a couple at their home.
“How could anyone be mean to a lovely little dog like this?” the woman said, taking Piper and holding her close.
Tom lied, telling them: “Some people – she had her tied up outside all night, whimpering.”
“And there’s no danger this awful woman’s going to come looking for her?” asked the man.
“She won’t even realise she’s gone,” replied Tom, smug with himself.
But with Piper alive and well, she is microchipped so should she run away from her new owners and be found – Belle would be contacted.
And with Piper being shown to be alive, Tom’s lies would unravel and he would be exposed for that at least.
Fans reckon it could spell the end of Tom’s reign of terror in the village.
Darkest soap storylines
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…
EastEnders: Tony grooming Whitney (2008-2009) – Tony King first appeared in Albert Square in 2008 as the boyfriend of Bianca, played by Patsy Palmer. But it was quickly revealed he was a paedophile who had been grooming vulnerable Whitney, Bianca’s adopted stepdaughter from a previous relationship, since she was 12. The shocking storyline attracted more than 200 complaints within a week of it beginning. Whitney waited until her 16th birthday to reveal the truth to a horrified Bianca, who called the police.
Emmerdale: Holly’s drug addiction and shock death (2010-2016) – In 2010, Holly Barton (played by Sophie Powles) became Emmerdale’s first teenage drug addict. The shocking storyline saw her taking cocaine on a night out before developing a deadly heroin habit. Parents John and Moira desperately tried to help get their daughter clean but when Holly returned in 2016, following a four-year absence, she quickly relapsed. Fans were left stunned and heartbroken when distraught Moira found Holly dead in her bed from a heroin overdose.
Hollyoaks: Luke’s rape (2000) – Actor Gary Lucy was just 17 when he took on this groundbreaking storyline, which saw his character Luke Morgan become soap’s first male rape victim. Luke had endured a long-running bullying campaign by football rival Mark Gibbs – who raped him after Luke stood up to him. Luke was left suicidal following the brutal attack, before opening up to his brother Adam. Gibbs was sentenced to eight years in prison. Gary won the Best Actor gong at the British Soap Awards in 2000 for his performance.
Coronation Street: Evil Richard Hillman (2001-2003) – Just a mere mention of ‘Richard Hillman’ is enough to send a shiver down the spines of soap fans. He is often ranked one of the most evil soap villains and it’s not hard to see why. The smooth-talking financial adviser bashed his ex-wife Patricia over the head with a shovel. In a bid to keep his mother-in-law Audrey quiet, he set fire to her house. And when Maxine caught him trying to murder Emily Bishop, he took a crowbar to her head. He made his exit from the cobbles in 2003 when he drove Gail Platt, played by Helen Worth, and her family into the canal. They survived, but he didn’t.
One wrote: “#Emmerdale need to end the abuse storyline now.”
A second said: “The sooner Tom gets found out the better!!!”
Another added: “I really want this scenario with Tom to end because it’s so uncomfortable but then I realise it’s just an act on a show & this actually happens to people in real life… so sad.”
