Emmerdale’s Tom King to be electrocuted as baby story escalates

Emmerdale fans will see Tom King’s life hang in the balance next week as his latest furious outburst has dangerous consequences.

The evil villain accidentally hurts himself while privately raging over his wife Belle lying to him.

Upcoming episodes see pregnant Belle decide to have a termination as she has serious doubts about starting a family with Tom.

As Belle is too scared to be honest with Tom about her choice, she tells him that she had a miscarriage.

Next week, Belle discusses the issue with Rachel, her Mental Health Care Coordinator.

Rachel is concerned to hear that Belle felt forced to lie to her husband. As the appointment goes on, Belle worries that Rachel is starting to realise the extent of Tom’s abusive behaviour.

Rachel pushes the issue and encourages Belle to take a break from Tom. Belle appears to take notice of the advice, as she books a taxi and plans a sudden trip to Scotland to stay with Debbie.

Meanwhile, Noah Dingle accidentally causes trouble for Belle when he tells Tom that she went into town for an appointment the previous day.

Tom investigates and realises that Belle went to the abortion clinic. He takes his fury out on a nearby barn, grabbing an old and rusty iron bar to trash the place.

As Tom starts to exhaust himself, he takes a final swing and the metal bar smashes against the rotary isolator behind him.

Tom is electrocuted and hurled violently against a beam, before losing consciousness.

With Belle heading off for a trip, will Tom’s life-or-death drama go unnoticed?

Emmerdale airs these scenes on Monday, June 24.

Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
