Tom's making a dangerous enemy

He’s been getting away with his behaviour for far too long – but last night’s Emmerdale (Thursday, October 24) saw Nicola grow suspicious of Tom. This came as she realised that little Carl seemed to be scared of cousin Tom.

As the pair played with his remote control car outside, Carl would rather be anywhere else than with Tom – even, it seemed, doing chores.

Noticing how he seemed to tense up whenever Tom was around, Nicola smelled a rat. Her steely expression as the episode ended seemed to suggest that she knows something is amiss… and, knowing Nicola, she’ll stop at nothing to get answers.

Could Nicola be the beginning of the end for Tom?
