Emmerdale viewers are speculating that Dr Todd's escalating bullying of medical student Jacob Gallagher may be driven by a hidden vendetta rather than simple workplace malice. What began as professional criticism has now crossed into personal territory, with Todd allegedly setting Jacob up and recording conversations to paint him as obsessive.
Fans have taken to social media to share theories, with many believing Todd's behaviour suggests a deeper agenda. One viewer commented: 'It feels like it's more than workplace issues so maybe Todd is taking some sort of revenge on him or has a vendetta.' Others have suggested a personality disorder, noting Todd's erratic mood swings from cruel to overly sweet.
Some fans are confused by the sudden change in Todd's attitude, as she previously supported Jacob through his mother's death. A puzzled viewer wrote: 'What happened? Seems out of nowhere she's turned on him.' Another predicted Todd's next move could be to accuse Jacob of having a drink problem or a crush on her.
Emmerdale airs weeknights at 8pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
