Emmerdale fans have “worked out” what Tom King is up to, as he clearly had a plan in mind.

He seemed to be targeting his wife Belle Dingle once again during Thursday’s episode, 

after months of abuse. Tom coercively controlled, manipulated, isolated and violently abused Belle for months, before she ended their marriage.

After managing to escape him after one of his rages, she vowed they were over leading to him attacking her again. 

Belle has not told her family the true reason for their split and has since fled to Scotland for some time away.

Her exit left Tom furious as his grip on her loosened, and he realised she was no longer under his control. 

He also couldn’t stalk her like he had been doing with her out of the way, and in the latest episode he changed tactics.

As he continued to play the victim and even suggested Belle was to blame for their break-up, Tom told his uncle Jimmy King he needed something to focus on. He then had a mystery delivery but wouldn’t tell Jimmy what it was.

Things got a little confusing when Tom asked Jimmy if he had a drill he could borrow, before claiming it was to put up some shelves. Tom was then shown sneaking out, before fleeing the home he once shared with Belle with the drill in his hand.

Having clearly snuck into the house he isn’t supposed to be near, he hid behind a wall when Aaron Dingle drove past. As he fled he seemed pretty pleased with himself, smirking as he looked at the drill before later making a comment about being able to make a home anywhere.

His weird behaviour, sneaking into the house and the comment left some viewers convinced they knew his creepy next move, and it could be bad news for Belle. Fans believed he may have used the drill to create spy holes in the house, as other viewers wondered if Tom planned to hide out in the house with Belle not realising.

Taking to X, one fan said: “Oh no. Tom’s going to move into the loft isn’t he?” as another posted: “Why do I get the feeling that Tom is going to do a Lachlan and live in the loft, watching Belle!” A third viewer said: “Can just imagine Tom eating Belle’s leftovers while he spies on her through some peep hole in the ceiling.”
