This week in Emmerdale, the feud between Kim Tate (Claire King) and Thea Ramsden (Chelsea Edge) reached a dramatic climax, with Thea stabbed by her own mother before being rushed to hospital, where the truth about her identity was finally revealed. Elsewhere, the village saw a kidnapping, a dead body in the vets, and hints that Doctor Liam (Jonny McPherson) is hiding something about his life in London.
The Truth About Thea Revealed
DS Thea Ramsden was rushed to hospital after being stabbed by Kim, who blamed her for kidnapping Baby Tate—something we know is not true—and lashed out. As Thea recovered, Kim finally learned that Thea is the daughter she gave up for adoption all those years ago. Kim has tried to explain why she did what she did, but Thea may not be entirely convinced.
The identity of Thea's father remains unknown, with viewers' top picks being Kim's ex-husband Steve Marchant or Graham Foster. The prediction is on Steve, though it would be a twist if Graham turned out to be her dad.
Baby Tate's Kidnapper Revealed
It was revealed this week that Baby Tate was kidnapped by his own dad in a shocking Halloween twist. With help from Gabby, he was playing Kim and Graham at their own game after they thought they could get away with not putting the baby up for adoption as he'd asked. The baby now has a name, with Joe calling him William after Dawn's dad, and Joe seems to have finally accepted him as his son.
What Is Liam Hiding?
The murder mystery episodes didn't go down particularly well with viewers, but they were a bit of fun amongst the tragedies. One thing is certain: Liam is hiding something, and the 'gunman' Dave recognised him from back in London. Little is known about Liam's background, just that he's from down south and that his first wife died. The prediction is that it's something about his wife and her death—all we know is that she died years ago off screen of a 'nut allergy', but in Emmerdale, anything is possible.
Sadie's Scheming Continues
Sadie is continuing to manipulate Caleb and Ruby, this week convincing Caleb that Ruby has a drinking problem while putting thoughts into Ruby's head that Caleb is controlling. Caleb and Ruby have been a strong couple for a while, especially since the death of Anthony, so it's a shame to see a wedge driven between them—however, they are both big on revenge, so Sadie may face consequences when they discover the truth.
