Emmerdale set for terrifying flashback twist as secret Tom and Belle scenes revealed
Emmerdale will feature a change to the usual format for a special episode next week on the ITV soap, as fans see Tom King's control and abuse towards Belle Dingle take a dark turn
Emmerdale is lining up a major flashback twist next week, in a change to the ITV soap’s usual episode format.
Terrifying scenes involving Belle Dingle and her abusive husband Tom King will see his controlling and violent behaviour escalate once more. Viewers have seen him isolate her from her loved ones, and now he plots to do this further by taking her on a ‘trip’ to Wales.
Belle’s thrilled as she and Tom enjoy their cottage stay, but dark scenes soon air with their fates not confirmed. Belle’s brother Cain Dingle and cousin Charity Dingle finally realise something is wrong, and cotton on to Tom’s controlling behaviour.
They end up fleeing to the cottage after finding the address, but grim scenes await them with the cottage trashed and the walls covered in blood. As the pair fear something terrible has happened to Belle, viewers see a major change to the show’s format.
Wednesday’s episode will feature a flashback twist, as we go back to the moment the couple arrive at the holiday cottage. While initially they seem loved up, the cracks soon start to show as Tom begins his manipulation tactics.

The flashbacks detail events going on across their stay, and reveal what has led to the horror scene that Cain and Charity soon find. But where are Tom and Belle? All will become clear in the dark special episode airing next week.
It’s said events take a terrifying turn for Belle after she realises Tom plans to keep her there for longer. It comes as actor Jeff Hordley, who plays Cain, teased this could be the moment that leads to Tom’s downfall.
Teasing how far Cain will go to avenge Belle if needed, he said: “It’s his little sister. If someone hurts his little sister there’s no saying what Cain would do.” Emma added: “They do what they need to do.”
He added on the possible revenge ahead: “I think it was almost inevitable that there was gonna be a time where Cain was gonna get wind of what’s been going on. It’s always interesting… Cain was once this not very liked figure by viewers when he joined.
“Now he is seen as this hero, who can go in and save the day for other people and not in a nice way.” As for Tom, he added: “He’s clever in the way he operates and he’s masking everything that is going on really well. We don’t have a clue.”
