The viewers were delighted that after months of abuse, Belle finally turned to her family for help – but only after exploring what the future would hold if she didn’t.

In the first, she and Tom got back together and we saw her desperately sad and scared, and pregnant. In the second, she begged Amelia to listen as she ran through all the ways Tom had hurt her. But Cain overheard, and – in typical Dingle fashion – he attacked Tom leaving him fighting for life. article continues below Read all the latest spoilers The third scenario saw Belle having made peace with her split from Tom and his new romance with Amelia. In scenes several years in the future, we watched Tom and Amelia plan their wedding, only for it to become clear that he was now abusing his wife-to-be. Belle tried to intervene, but her attempts to help came to nothing. Poor Amelia was taken away in a body bag after “falling” downstairs, while Tom played the grieving widower at her funeral.

And one viewer declared it “the best episode I’ve seen from Emmerdale in a long time”. Meanwhile Emmerdale co-stars also lined up to praise Eden Taylor-Draper (who plays Belle) and Emma Atkins, AKA Charity, for their performances. Bradley Johnson, better known as Vinny said the episode was “amazing”, while Lawrence J Robb, who plays Mack, added: “God they’re good aren’t they?” We definitely can’t argue with that. We just hope Belle can get the happy ending she deserves – far away from evil Tom King! Emmerdale usually airs weeknights on ITV at 7.30pm.
