Viewers of Emmerdale are desperate for Belle Dingle to take action, believing a “mistake” is stopping Tom King from being exposed.
The villain has been targeting wife Belle in a cruel abuse storyline for months, and things took a sickening turn this week. Tom coercively controlled Belle, isolating her and manipulating her, affecting her mental health.
He then turned violent and tried to flee with her to Wales only for her to escape. After she ended their relationship and asked him to move out, he snuck into the house and installed cameras.
As well as spying on her, he also deliberately ran over her beloved dog Piper before telling Belle she’d died. Belle realised straight away Tom had “killed her”, while fans now know that Piper is actually alive, with Tom taking her to a family away from the village.
He cruelly claimed Belle was abusive towards the dog, while fans hope Piper will find her way back to the village. But amidst all the drama, Belle has had multiple showdowns with Tom

After finding the courage to stand up to him, she and Tom have had words with him taunting her and even threatening her. But amid those around her not knowing the full truth and also not believing her claims, fearing for her mental health, fans have suggested how Belle could finally prove Tom is a monster.
Fans have been left “screaming” at their TVs every time they see Belle make the same “mistake”. Every single time she has a showdown with Tom, he says something that would incriminate him and expose his lies.
But not once has Belle recorded her chats with Tom on her phone, and he hasn’t even checked if she’s doing this. Fans are Belle’s “error” is that she isn’t recording Tom to show others what he’s really like behind closed doors.
If Belle did record Tom taunting her about Piper and him threatening her over her leaving him, perhaps someone could see what’s going on. With Tom’s downfall thought to be on the way, with actor James Chase leaving the show, might Belle finally expose him?
