Emmerdale viewers think they have spotted evil Tom King’s next sick plan after harrowing Belle Dingle scenes on Wednesday night.

The ITV soap is tackling a coercive control storyline with Tom and Belle, and fans have recently seen Tom isolating and manipulating his partner Belle.

With his vile and violent behaviour worsening recently as he took Belle to Wales on the pretence of a holiday.

But he has actually planned to relocate there without his wife knowing, even applying for a job.

To make matters worse, Tom didn’t let Belle tell any of her family about their ‘getaway’ and even hid her mobile so she couldn’t contact anyone.

Thankfully, Belle’s family member Charity Dingle has been very suspicious of Tom’s behaviour and after learning of Belle’s sudden departure.

She decided to investigate on Tuesday’s episode with Cain Dingle as they arrived to the trashed cottage in Wales – with no sign of anyone at the property.

On Wednesday’s episode, the hit ITV soap aired a major flashback twist in a change to the ITV soap’s usual episode format, as it showed what had happened at the cottage.

During the latest instalment, at first, the trip seemed to be going well until Belle learnt of Tom’s sinister plan to relocate and his vile behaviour started to escalate.

After Belle took Piper for a walk, joking to Tom she tried to run away, the vet saw red as he criticised Belle before tying Piper outside in punishment with the distressed dog appearing to be kept in the garden overnight, especially in the rain. Belle was left devastated and after being locked in the house, climbed out a window to comfort Piper.
