Emmerdale: Belle and Tom’s flashback

A flashback episode last night gave viewers an insight into Belle and Tom’s ‘holiday’ in a Welsh cottage. What started off as a romantic break soon turned into Belle’s worst nightmare.

After overhearing Tom talk about renting out the cottage for longer, Belle realised that Tom had planned on attending a job interview without telling her.

As Belle shared that she didn’t want to move away from Emmerdale village, Tom started bringing up her termination.

Tom then attempted to end his life when Belle suggested that she was scared of him. Afterwards, Belle made him some toast… but Tom made her eat it as it was too burnt for him.

At the end of the episode, after receiving death threats from her husband, Belle managed to grab the keys to the cottage and escape with Piper.

She jumped onto the local bus and handed over the little change she had on her, fleeing from her abusive husband.

Emmerdale fans spot huge pattern in Belle and Tom eating habits

Emmerdale viewers have noticed that there’s one type of food that Belle and Tom seem to always be eating. And, that’s bread.

They get through bread like there’s no tomorrow, with Belle serving Tom some burnt toast yesterday evening.

One fan commented: “”That’s the last of the bread,” That’s what happens when you have a groundhog day lifestyle of forever baking toast and staring out into the scenic Welsh countryside thinking ‘how can I kill my hubby and get away with it?'”

A second fan added: “I’ve never ever seen so much toast in one episode.”

A third fan noted: “Toast pops up a lot in this episode.”
