Belle decides to visit Tom as Cain’s actions threaten to tear the Dingles apart in Emmerdale
But will she regret her decision?
7-13 NOVEMBER
As Sam, Belle and Kammy prepare for Samson’s return, Charles interrupts the preparations to tell Belle that Tom has been beaten up and is in a critical condition.
As they process the news, Belle’s furious when Cain admits he organised the attack, and Sam receives a call that Samson assaulted someone and won’t be coming home.
As everyone realises that Cain got Samson to attack Tom, things are tense, and Sam accuses Cain of not caring about Samson, suggesting he and Moira never forgave him for hurting Matty. As their argument reaches a fever pitch, Sam attacks Cain. And Cain storms off as Sam starts to sob.
The next day, Sam receives a call from Samson and is gutted to learn that the new charges could mean a long stretch in prison.
With Belle starting to feel paranoid about Tom's reaction, Kammy tries calming her down with little success, promising to support her as she relives her abuse at Tom’s hands, terrified that Cain might have given him an excuse to fight back.
When Sam arrives, he insists that Cain and Moira should move out and getting nowhere, Cain forces Belle, who’s at breaking point, to make the decision.
Poking holes in their arguments, Belle explodes at Cain and Sam and despite objections from around the room, announces she’s going to talk to Tom. Leaving Cain and Sam feeling ashamed.
Once at the hospital, where Tom is being held to recover, Kammy calms Belle’s nerves, but he’s uncertain about letting her go in alone. But Belle believes that his presence would rile Tom up, so despite his objections, agrees to give her ten minutes before sending help. And they both anxiously steel themselves.
Emmerdale continues Monday to Friday at 8pm on ITV1 with first look episodes available from 7am on ITVX
