Emmerdale viewers have predicted an affair could be on the cards for Manpreet Sharma and Tom King following a series of interactions.
Last week, Charles Anderson (Kevin Mathurin) finally returned to the village, still struggling to cope with his conscience after painting his father out as a thief before he died. Drowning his sorrows in the pub, Charles was approached by Tom (James Chase), who attempted to shared his condolences.

But he ended up rubbing the vicar up the wrong way by comparing his own conflicting feelings about late father Carl King (Tom Lister) to Charles’ situation with Victor (Eddie Osei). The vicar eventually turned violent with Tom, pinning his head to the bar in a fit of rage.

Afterwards, Manpreet (Rebecca Sarker) tended to Tom’s injuries before checking up on him the next day. “Hey, how’s your head?” Manpreet asked. “Still no signs of concussion?” To which Tom responded: “Nah, just a bit sore,” before the doctor apologised for her partner’s behaviour. “I am so, so sorry.”
The vet chipped in: “For a vicar, Charles isn’t big on human kindness, is he? Sorry, I didn’t mean to slag him off.” “Oh don’t worry I will be doing exactly the same,” Manpreet said. “If he ever comes home. He has been all over the place since his father died, he is not coping.”

“And you?” Tom caringly asked. “Are you coping?” Reassuring him that she is okay, the vet noted: “You don’t look it. Look, I am going to grab a quick drink if you have got a few minutes.”
“You don’t need to listen to my troubles,” Manpreet insisted as Tom replied: “You looked after me yesterday, it is the least I can do.” The scenes between the two led fans straight to social media, theorising an affair could begin between the unlikely pair.
