Christmas Day is a d.e.a.d.l.y one where Kim Tate (Claire King) is concerned in Emmerdale, as Will Taylor (Dean Andrews) finds her unconscious.
A few months ago, it was confirmed Will had been busy plotting with Kim’s financial advisor Peter. Their feud began when Kim discovered Will had slept with Rose. Afterwards, they spent days trying to get one up on each other, whether that be refusing to sign divorce papers or sleeping with a rebound – Peter, in this case.
The advisor is collaborating with Will and another man, who is currently out of the country until Christmas Eve.
How convenient.
In upcoming episodes, Peter heads back to Home Farm and piles on the pressure for Will regarding their Christmas Day plans.
On Christmas Eve, Kim sets off from the stables to ride Ice the horse. After time passes, we return to the Home Farm fields, only to discover Kim’s horse wandering alone.
Driving down a country road, Will is concerned to find Ice – but no Kim. Seconds later, he spots a body lying still in a field. To his horror, Will discovers the body is Kim. He calls 999, his thoughts of revenge dissipating quickly.
With flashforwards also occurring within this storyline, we can safely assume the festive period is going to be anything but quiet and peaceful where Kim, Will, Peter and his mysterious sidekick are concerned.
‘Yeah, it was like, “How the hell did that horse get out again?” That’s all I’m saying’, Claire King said, reacting to the upcoming teaser scenes.
‘There’s some sort of disturbance. That’s all I can say…’.
