‘This is too much now’ say Emmerdale fans as they demand Tom King is brought to justice amid fears Belle will be jailed

EMMERDALE fans have been left insisting the soap has gone a step too far after airing gruesome scenes that saw Tom King stabbed.

Belle Dingle ploughed an axe into his back as their horror abuse plot reached fever pitch on the ITV soap opera last night.

It has left fans concerned that it is “too much” particularly given that Belle may now not face real justice having seemingly killed her husband.

It has left a sour taste in fans’ mouths who think the storyline could be undermined if she is unable to face any real justice for Tom’s abhorrent treatment of her.

Now they have issued a plea to Emmerdale bosses as they have been left desperately calling on the show to do the right thing with Tom.

Hitting out online, one worried fan said: “This is too much now Belle’s been through all that now she may get sent down for what she did to Tom?”

Another added: “Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad Belle has axed him but I wanted Tom to get full Dingle justice. If he’s dead now he hasn’t suffered enough.”

As a third went on to write: “Emmerdale was incredible tonight but i hope tom isn’t dead as belle deserves justice for what happened.”

In the episode, on the day that she had planned to report her harrowing ordeal, Belle was left being terrorised by Tom King once again as he unleashed fury on her after finally coming face-to-face with her once again after weeks apart.

In scary scenes, Tom was chased by Belle as he became hell-bent on causing her even more pain.

At one stage, Tom spotted her lurking through an open window and as she realised she had been caught, she soon began to block the door as best she could in order to stop Tom from entering.

Tom then rattled at the door as he begged Belle to let him in before he furiously shouted: “Let me in Belle! Oh come on you stupid b***h and open this door!”

In a scene that resembled The Shining, Tom then began to tear the door down by ploughing an axe into it with Belle stood sharply to the side.

She let out a panicking wail as she screamed in fear at what Tom was about to do.

Later as Tom strolled around the room planning his next move, Belle was able to get her hands on the axe as she ploughed it into his back leaving him for dead.

So has Belle finally killed the evil Tom once and for all?

Or will she eventually get the justice that she deserves?
