Emmerdale killer to make shock return as family get bombshell news – and they will be back sooner than you think
EMMERDALE has revealed a bombshell return for a convicted killer.
The latest episode of the ITV soap – which is available to watch now on ITV Player – broke the news that Angelica King will be making a shock return – and soon.
While her parents Nicola and Jimmy clashed about his nephew Tom and his latest bout of questioning for his abusing wife Belle Dingle, they were distracted by Rodney with the phone.
It was the centre housing daughter Angelica.
Viewers know the teenager is being held after killing her friend Heath Hope in a car accident at New Year – and then attempting to cover up the crime.
Nicola soon jumped on the call and became very excited, thanking the person on the other end repeatedly.
As soon as she put it down she told Jimmy: “We can collect her tomorrow.
“They said it was quick but the board moved her release up. I mean they asked if we needed more notice…
“We’re getting our baby back.”
“I can’t believe it,” replied Jimmy.
But then Nicola told him: “About Tom… if they do charge him, I don’t want him round the kids – especially not Angel.
“I am not saying he would hurt her but she’s been through so much these past few months, she doesn’t need any of this stress.
“Who knows what this whole expeerience has done to her? So if they charge him, I want you to keep your distance.”
“I will,” Jimmy said, adding: “But, if they don’t, if they just let him go, then I want you to drop it too.
“I agree, we can’t have Angel coming back to world war three.”
And unfortunately with the lack of hard evidence until the tablet’s hard drive has been analysed, the police were forced to let Tom go.
He returned to the village blustering – despite the obvious panic he was trying to hide – and Nicola was straight on his case.
While to Jimmy she insisted Tom was welcome back, to him she wanted him to know that she was onto him.
