The abduction of Kim Tate (played by Claire King) appears to have been solved, according to Emmerdale viewers, and it has something to do with John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth).
In later sequences, Dean Andrews’ character Will Taylor will be overcome with sorrow when the blackmailer raises the stakes to £50,000. He will be forced to sell his haulage company shares to Will Ash’s character Caleb Milligan in order to obtain the money.
Although, when he arrives back at Home Farm, he realises Kim is missing. He is alarmed when he receives a call from his blackmailer informing him they’ve kidnapped her – and fans think it could be newcomer John.
Taking to a Facebook fan page, one fan asked: “Why was John cagey near his van when Tracy went up? Who was in there or what?”
“He has Will’s money I guess,” one replied while another said: “Yeah I was thinking he’s cagey as he wouldn’t go to the hospital or let medics look at him.”
Someone else suggested: “He’s the blackmailer and he’s got Kim.”
Another agreed: “Something strange about John, think it’s Kim as she has been kidnapped and I think he has something to do with Rose.”
The theories come following last week’s dramatic barn fire, which almost took the lives of several villagers.
However, John was one of the heroes who swooped in to help and ended up saving Ruby Milligan (Beth Cordingly) and Moira Barton (Natalie J Robb).
But, when Tracy questioned him on Nate’s (Jurell Carter) whereabouts, John seemed nervous and was keen to hop in his van.
This also led fans to believe that John had something to do with Nate’s disappearance – but is he telling the truth?
When quizzed on where Nate was, John confirmed he had left the village already. John explained: “He wasn’t there, he left before it happened, he mentioned Shetland.”
In shock, Tracy responded: Yeah, I knew he was going there, I just thought I might have seen him before he took off.”
“I am sorry,” John concluded as Tracy added: “It’s not your fault, is it.”
