Emmerdale fans think they have spotted a doppelganger for Tom King on Coronation Street as physical similarities between two actors became evident in last night’s episode of the soap opera.
As young Tom King returned to Emmerdale, viewers noted that the actor bears more than a passing resemblance to the Coronation Street character Justin – Daisy’s stalker on the ITV soap.
Tom King returns to Emmerdale
Last night’s episode saw Belle Dingle being watched by a mystery figure from afar. This was later revealed to be her ex-boyfriend, Tom King.
As the pair chatted, it became clear that there is still a spark between them. In tonight’s episode, Tom and Belle will arrange to meet again. Could a rekindled romance be on the cards for Tom and Belle?
Fans note similarities between Tom and Justin
As the episode aired, Emmerdale fans were quick to point out how physically similar Tom and Coronation Street’s Justin appear to be. In his time away from the soap, Tom King has been recast, and is now played by actor James Chase. Corrie’s Justin, meanwhile, is played by Andrew Still.
Writing on Twitter last night, a number of fans shared this observation.
“Is it me or does Tom look like Justin from Corrie?” asked one fan.
