Emmerdale fans are certain Tom King will escape prison – with the help of a villager.
Over in the Dales this week, justice finally came calling for Tom (James Chase). Fans will recall how for the past year and a half, he has made wide Belle Dingle’s (Eden Taylor-Draper) life hell, gaslighting her and controlling her every move.
One incident saw Belle attack Tom with an axe in self-defence, and despite being hesitant at first, Belle reported Tom to the police for his abuse over the past year.
During Thursday’s episode (December 19), Tom’s trial took place – with Tom on trial for coercive controlling behaviour and assault. On the stand, Belle revealed the truth about the abuse he put her through.
