SPOILER ALERT – Emmerdale’s Ross has a new love rival as Tom flirts with Debbie
Also this week...What's Daz hiding?
Debbie Dingle thinks her money worries could be sorted if she can just get Graham’s super-rich boss Tom to use her luxury car service.
Lovesick Ross clearly isn’t happy about Debbie meeting Tom in a hotel alone to bag the contract, and offers to accompany her.
She declines, but Ross may well be right to worry once Debbie is taken up to the penthouse suite and sees what handsome, young Tom (Ned Porteous) might have to offer…
“With Tom I don’t think it’s the money that’s a draw for her,” says Charley Webb, who plays Debbie.
“She is one of those people who will always go with her heart, which is why she’s ended up with someone like Ross.
"Debbie’s ambitious and wants to earn money, but she wants it to provide stability for her kids.”
Having a boyfriend with limitless amounts of cash would certainly ease Debbie’s fears where Sarah’s health and cancer treatment is concerned.
But the meeting doesn’t get off to the best of starts when Debbie mistakes her potential new client for the butler.
Tom plays along for a while until Debbie realises who he really is, and it’s not long before the air is crackling with sexual tension as the two parties try to suss the other out.
“There is definitely a connection between them,” teases Charley. “There is something drawing Debbie to Tom but she doesn’t know what.”
Will Debbie keep their relationship purely professional, or will she be tempted to mix business with pleasure? One thing’s for sure, Ross has got some serious competition…
What’s Daz hiding?
Good Samaritan Kerry is determined to turn things around for Daz, so when a plumbing job comes up at the salon, she convinces a reluctant Bernice to employ his services.
Daz manages to fix the problem and, on a roll, decides to have a go at repairing the tanning machine – but ends up covering Kerry and Bernice in fake tan.
That turns out to be the least of his worries, though, as Elliot later finds Daz’s knife when he visits Hettie. We can’t imagine Nicola will be too impressed, but the question is: why is Daz still holding on to the knife?
He’s clearly hiding something about his past from Dan and Kerry, but will this latest blunder force him to finally come clean to his brother?
