After a heated confrontation, Emmerdale has revealed who the blackmailer of Will Taylor is. The shocking cliffhanger that ended Thursday’s (September 19) double bill came when it was revealed that Kim had orchestrated her own captivity in order to exact revenge on Will.
For weeks, Will has been keeping a secret about having a one-night fling with his ex-partner Rose while intoxicated. Since then, he has received numerous menacing letters demanding blackmail.
Earlier this week, Will had begged nemesis Caleb Miligan for a £40K loan to pay off the blackmailer, promising that Caleb could have his shares in the haulage firm if he didn’t pay it in three months.
With the cash in hand for his blackmailer, Will had to confess to best mate and business partner Jimmy King that he’d gone behind his back to take a loan from Caleb. Jimmy was furious over the betrayal since Will had tried to stop him from taking a buyout offer from Caleb a few weeks ago.
When Will arrived back at Home Farm for lunch, he discovered that Kim was missing. He soon received a phone call from the blackmailer revealing they’d kidnapped Kim.
Will was given specific instructions to deliver the money, or Kim would be harmed. A panicked Will rushed to the woods to try to find his kidnapped partner. He seemingly spotted an unconscious Kim on the ground, but as he got closer, he discovered it was a lifesize dummy dressed up in Kim’s clothes.
“Sick! You’re sick,” Will screamed.
A note in the dummy’s hand read: “Time’s running out for Kim. No point hanging around!”
Will carried on trying to find his wife, as the camera zoomed in on the dummy’s hand — it was posed as if it were firing a gun. The blackmailer then started playing the Fleetwood Mac song ‘Little Lies’.
Will was ordered to dig up a makeshift grave, where Kim’s muffled voice could be heard begging for help. He eventually uncovered a coffin (with his name on it) concealing a walkie-talkie inside. The camera revealed Kim walking up behind Will as he dug.
Kim whacked Will with a shovel, causing him to fall into the coffin. Kim revealed she knew all about his one-night-stand with Rose, telling him: “All of this was me.”
She challenged Will to “summon a shred of dignity” to admit what he’d done. With little choice but to confess the truth, Will finally conceded that he’d slept with Rose.
“[Rose] messed with Dawn, she messed with us but she’s gone now,” Will pleaded. “We’re left in peace.”
Kim corrected him: “We’re left in pieces.”
After Will confirmed he’d left his phone behind, Kim took the bag of cash and abandoned an injured Will in the woods.
“Where does this leave us?” Will asked, with Kim quipping: “It’s so cute you think there’s an ‘us’.”
Will was last seen injured and with no form of communication as the episode ended…
