Kim is soon blaming herself, but can she protect herself from another attack? Top suspects in who poisons Kim Tate in Emmerdale We're not short of suspects in the poisoning of Kim Tate in Emmerdale, but who's top of the list? 1. Caleb Dingle He's always hated Kim and wanted revenge on her for taking his birth right, Home Farm. And now Lydia stands to inherit it, Caleb thinks if Kim has a "little accident", they can persuade Lydia to sell up and split the profits of Home Farm between them all. But will Caleb cause that accident so he can buy it himself? 2. Chas Dingle could be Kim's poisoner in Emmerdale Chas has been absolutely vehement in her hatred of Kim and wanting her punished. Despite the fact we think they'd make great friends after last week's get together, she is out for blood. Caleb's suggestion of offing Kim definitely didn't shock or outrage Chas. And even though she said she was joking, something in her voice made us think she wasn't. 3. Cain Dingle Cain was in on the conversation and he looked very thoughtful at the end. Could he punish Kim by taking Caleb's idea on board and making it happen? 4. Does Joe Tate poison Kim in Emmerdale? He feels he's had his birth right stolen too and he might want to punish Kim for that. But also he might want to frame the Dingles so she doesn't leave Home Farm to Lydia. Could he administer just enough mushrooms to give Kim a scare, but not actually kill her? 5. Graham Foster We're not buying this truce Kim and Graham have called. As far as we're concerned he's still out to get her. And framing the Dingles so he can support Joe is as good a plan as any. Does Graham do it? Read more: Who’s leaving Emmerdale?
