Tom and Moira grow close as disaster strikes

Last night’s episode saw Tom pay a visit to Moira at the farm in his new role as village vet. While Cain was less than happy to see Tom in his home – due to Tom and sister Belle’s tumultuous romance – Moira appeared warm and welcoming.

She was also glad to see Tom when he appeared at the scene of her car crash with Nicola. He instantly impressed, putting his medical skills to good use helping Angelica – who had been knocked unconscious in the collision.

Tom and Moira’s scenes together led some viewers to wonder whether the pair could be headed for an unlikely romance. Is Moira’s interest in Tom to take a steamier turn?

Emmerdale fans predict Moira and Tom romance

Writing on Twitter after the episode aired, a number of fans shared their theories about the pair. A number of them pointed out that Moira had ‘previous’ for seduction, and that Tom should watch his back.

“Moira and Tom. I’m calling it!” said one fan, as their scenes played out.

“I s’pose Tom ends up in bed with Moireh at some point,” another agreed.

“Moira’s not going to jump on Tom is she?” asked another.

“Moira will be jumping Tom’s bones soon,” a fourth viewer predicted.

Could Tom and Moira get together?

If Moira and Tom were to get together then the fallout would be immense – what with Belle being the sister of Moria’s husband, Cain.

But, with Belle and Tom’s relationship being on the rocks due to his adverse reaction to Belle’s past (following her admission that she killed pal Gemma), there is potential that Tom could have his head turned.
