Last night’s episode of Emmerdale saw Charity Dingle begin to grow suspicious of Tom King and his abuse of Belle. This came as Tom almost killed himself in a fit of rage, getting electrocuted while taking out his temper on an isolated barn.
Technically Tom’s heart did stop – being resuscitated by Paddy, who he found there unconscious. Tom’s accident put a stop to Belle’s planned escape to Scotland.
Deciding to return for Piper the dog, she was stopped in her tracks by the arrival of Rhona – who had informed her that Tom had been rushed to hospital.
Then, after attempting to flee a second time, she was foiled again by Tom, returning home in his wheelchair.
Charity grows suspicious following Tom’s accident
This version of events didn’t sit well with suspicious Charity, who was worried that son Noah might cop the blame for the ‘faulty’ equipment which electrocuted Tom.
‘Something is not adding up!’ she exclaimed later, in frustration.
Is Charity on to something?
