Emmerdale’s Tom King was up to his usual tricks in tonight’s episode, cornering Isaac into giving over the keys to his house so Tom could snatch back the evidence of his abuse

Emmerdale’s Tom King could be about to be caught out for his vile actions after making a major mistake in Monday’s episode (Monday 7).

On Monday, Tom discovered Carl had given his old tablet over to Isaac Dingle – without realising videos and photos of his abuse of Belle were contained on there. Though Moira has seen the footage, a seizure due to her brain tumour meant she forgot everything she’d seen.

Tom cornered Isaac into handing over the spare key to his home and snuck in to retrieve the tablet – nearly running into Matty Barton who was on the sofa. But Tom made it out with the goods, and even goaded Belle in the street that she had “no evidence” against him and would end up the one behind bars.

He said: “If I’m really the monster you’re making me out to be, how come I’m not in custody by now? I mean, just think about it for a minute. I’ll spell it out for you then, shall I?

“So – local vet, professional member of the community, clean reputation, no criminal record. And not to mention the fact that there’s zero evidence! I wonder why that is, eh? You’ve got nothing to pin on me, Belle. You’re gonna get sent down for what you’ve done to me, and then they will lock you up for a very, very long time.”

Later, Tom went outside the house with the tablet and began stamping on it, before eventually smashing the screen with a brick.

But unbeknownst to him, Carl was watching from the bedroom window – and could be set to tell the truth, leading to Tom’s arrest. There’s also the potential that Tom has been spotted on one of the cameras he set up to keep track of Belle, under the guise of protecting their home from burglars.

Fans have been worried that Tom could kill off one of the kids responsible for taking his tablet in the first place, with one suggesting: “My heart rate is through the roof! I’m so angry, I just know Tom will get his tablet back. When is he going to get his comeuppance!”

Another said: “If Tom manages to get it back I’m going to stop watching. Don’t let him get away with it, they are stupid as it will show other abusers that they can do the same.”
