6 Emmerdale spoilers next week

1. Tom King's behaviour takes new dark turn

Tom is stressed and irritable as he continues to berate Belle for her decision to postpone having children.

Suzy Merton (Martelle Edinborough) is surprised to find Belle working on reception at the vets, and alludes to an unaware Belle about the job offer at Take A Vow.

Furious Belle covers for Tom's lies, pretending that he passed on the message. Later, Belle accuses Tom of lying to Suzy, but he manages to appease her.

When Belle accepts the job, Tom is angered when Suzy describes Belle's first client as her 'perfect match'. With Tom unhappy that Belle is working at Take A Vow, what lengths will he go to to regain control?

The next day, at Marlon Dingle's (Mark Charnock) birthday bash, Tom's abuse escalates further. An image shows what looks to be Tom mocking the Dingles, but what exactly happens and how far will he go?

2. Aaron Dingle hides gene test results

Aaron, Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) and Caleb Milligan (William Ash) each prepare to open their gene test results at their respective homes.

Moira Dingle (Natalie J Robb) is relieved when Cain tests negative for the faulty BRCA2 gene, while Cain feels irrationally guilty about his good luck as sister Chas has her cancer diagnosis to cope with.

The Milligan clan are thrilled when Caleb's test is also negative, meaning that son Nicky (Lewis Cope) is in the clear.

But Aaron feels grim to learn that he has inherited the faulty gene from his mum. Chas is relieved that her brothers tested negative, but later Aaron lies to her, claiming he didn't inherit the faulty gene.

Aaron struggles with how emotional and relieved Chas is over his version of the news, and he continues to feign nonchalance as Chas expresses her joy at the supposed results. But when will the truth of Aaron's situation be revealed?

But at Marlon's party, Mandy is furious when Marlon lets slip that it was Chas who broke off the kiss, not Paddy!

Rodney Blackstock (Patrick Mower) warns Pollard off Amit, but Pollard is determined to prove he still has his wits about him. Amit manipulates Pollard into doing a deal with him, and Pollard's all in as he commits to their joint venture.
