( Emmerdale: Cain an Charity take Belle’s absence into their own hands)
There’s horror for Charity (Emma Atkins) and Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) on Emmerdale in upcoming episodes when they follow Belle (Eden Taylor-Draper) and Tom King (James Chase) to a remote cottage in Wales – and are shocked by what they find.
Charity has for some time been worried about Tom’s behaviour towards Belle and has tried to get her to open up.
Following Tom and Belle’s sudden departure for Wales – where Tom secretly plans to move permanently – Charity is deeply worried, especially when she discovers that Belle has been missing her mental health appointments. She calls Cain and tells him of her concerns, as Emma Atkins told us.
‘I think the conversation in the pub prior is where Charity shows her vulnerability and says, “I recognise these traits, I recognise the signs, and there’s one person who made me feel like this and that’s Bails.

‘I just feel like no matter how much aftershave Tom splashes on, I can feel something evil lurking underneath.” It’s a metaphor but I think that’s when Cain decides maybe she’s got a point, actually. I think he believes her.’
In a new spoiler video, the pair beak into Belle and Tom’s house and find all of his surveillance equipment that he’s been using to keep tabs on Belle. Even more alarmingly, Belle’s phone is found stashed in a drawer, which is why Cain has been unable to contact her.
Charity finds the address for the holiday cottage in Wales and they head off. But when they get there they’re totally unprepared for what they find.
The cottage has been completely trashed and the walls are smeared in blood.
Emma Atkins described the grisly find. ’I think it’s just an unpleasant sight, isn’t it, seeing blood smeared on a wall. Is it Belle’s or Tom’s? I think we immediately fear for her safety, because why wouldn’t we?
‘We know that she’s gone away and she’s missing and there’s no one in the house when we get there, we see blood. We immediately assume Belle is in real trouble.’
While Cain and Charity try to work out what to do next, viewers are shown a flashback to what happened from the moment Belle and Tom arrived at the cottage. What starts as apparently a pleasant trip soon turns into a terrifying ordeal for Belle.
What’s happened to her? Will Charity and Cain get to her before it’s too late?
