Emmerdale releases dramatic trailer for Tom’s demise and fans couldn’t be happier – but it’s not over yet

A new dramatic Emmerdale trailer has dropped and it teases Tom King’s demise – but it’s safe to say, Tom doesn’t plan on going down without a fight.

Fans have rejoiced upon seeing the new trailer, which shows the walls closing in on Tom King at long last. But it’s not over just yet as Tom doesn’t plan on going quietly.

Here’s what the trailer tells us about Tom’s final chapter.

Tom and Amelia in Emmerdale

Following his prolonged abuse of Belle in Emmerdale, Tom has embarked on a relationship with Amelia Spencer – perhaps because she is one of few residents in the village gullible enough to believe his lies.

After Belle revealed the extent of her husband’s abuse, the Dingles and other villagers closed ranks around her, but Amelia continues to defend Tom despite being on the receiving end of his cruel tongue herself.

On bonfire night, after seeing the Guy was dressed like him, Tom took out his anger on Amelia. Tom accused her of acting like a stray dog and called her pathetic, but she still forgave him.

Last week, Tom went even further and told Amelia she was acting like a hooker. However, the trailer reveals that Tom will need Amelia on side if he is to win in court against Belle.

New Emmerdale trailer

The new trailer shows Tom breaking into Jacob’s Fold and spying on Belle as Charity’s voice reassures Belle that Tom’s bail conditions mean he can’t go near her.

Tom is then shown telling Sam the police will believe his word over Belle’s because “all they have to do is ask Amelia how I treat her, which is like the perfect gentleman.”

However, the trailer quickly shows a concerned looking Amelia, while another shot shows Tom pulling Amelia out of the house while she shouts “you’re hurting me”.

More worryingly, Tom is shown pushing Belle against a car as he shouts at her: “You always have to take things too far.” Meanwhile, a worried Cain and Charity are shown in a car rushing to the rescue. With the walls closing in, what will Tom do?

Fans rejoice

On Emmerdale’s Instagram page, fans were happy to see the end is nigh for Tom. One viewer wrote: “Yes yes yes. I can’t wait for Tom to get caught,” while another added: “Please let Tom finally be caught! Belle deserves justice. I think Amelia is starting to see who he really is. The sooner Tom goes, the better.”

A third fan said Tom’s downfall “can’t come soon enough,” with a fourth writing: “not before time.”

Others fans are eager for Tom to get his comeuppance and don’t want to see him die. One viewer said: “Just let Tom be arrested, Belle gets her say, then everyone believes her, Belle gets Piper back.”

Another fan was more extreme in their view, writing: “I swear if the writers kill him off and he doesn’t get caught, I will stop watching.”

Whatever the soap has planned, things don’t look good for Tom.
