Emmerdale fans reckon they’ve sussed out the connection between Tom King and his lawyer mate Ollie.
The duo were seen plotting against the Dingles in Monday’s episode (November 4), with Belle Dingle facing jail time for defending herself against her abusive husband Tom. With the clock ticking to prove Tom’s guilt, he and his solicitor Ollie have been scheming to keep him out of prison and paint Belle as the guilty party.
Recently, Ollie helped cover up some evidence and it’s now come to light that he assisted Tom in his plan to play the victim, suggesting the Dingles are after him. After vandalising his own car and having Ollie attack him, Sam Dingle has been blamed for both incidents and is trying to convince everyone of his innocence.

However, at the end of Monday’s episode, we discovered why Ollie was risking his career to help Tom. From hiding evidence to committing crimes and framing villagers, why would Ollie go to such lengths for Tom?
It turns out Ollie has a secret of his own that Tom knows about. The pair seem to have a long history together, possibly from school or university, reports the Mirror.
Regardless, it seems he has a significant link to the village through Tom, who knows something about his past. Ollie hinted that he’s hiding a secret that must never be revealed, something Tom is aware of.

Tom’s got Ollie under his thumb, using this apparent dark secret to force him into some dodgy dealings. Fans are convinced they’ve sussed out the dirt he’s got on Ollie.
Some reckon Ollie might have a shady past with a crime or two, while others are whispering about drug scandals. One eagle-eyed viewer wrote: “I’m sure I heard something to do with drugs.”
A second chimed in with: “I’m sure he has something over his solicitor to do with drugs,” and a third speculated: “Drug dealer.” There’s talk of past abuses and dodgy dealings, with one fan suggesting: “I reckon he’s been caught abusing in the past and got away with it,”
Another reckons: “The solicitor is a druggy.” A sixth added: “I thought his solicitor was a friend from school or uni so maybe a backstory there.”
