Emmerdale fans work out Nicky's true motive as his connection to the Dingles is 'rumbled'

Emmerdale fans are sure they've worked out Nicky's true motive - and his connection to the Dingles.

Nanny Nicky has been working at Kim Tate's farm to help Gabby look after her son Thomas Tate, with many fans puzzled about what his motive might be due to his seemingly unusual behaviour. Some fans are convinced he's far too nice and that there must be a secret he's been hiding, with viewers now sure they've rumbled what's going on.

Tonight, the accusations about Will's missing watch continued to grow as he found Sam at the pub and criticised him for stealing, before Caleb showed up and stopped the fight from starting, with Nicky insisting to Will it wasn't worth it.

Later in the episode, Nicky appeared with the watch and confirmed he found Thomas playing with it, leaving Will fuming as he was sure he had checked all around the house for it.

Moments later, Caleb appeared to sign a business deal with Kim, as she urged Will to apologise to Caleb over what happened. He was impressed by the apology but it sparked a war of words between Kim and Will as he felt he shouldn't have to.

Following tonight's scenes, fans are now convinced Nicky could be working alongside Caleb - and that they're connected somehow.

"What's #Manny Nicky's game? No way did Thomas get Will's watch off a worktop. He's not Superman 2! Nicky's either on the rob or he's playing a game. And is Caleb involved in this game? #Emmerdale," one wrote.

A second added: "Do we think Nicky and Caleb are connected? #emmerdale," with a third sharing: "Nicky working for Caleb to split Kim and Will. Kim and Caleb will have an affair, Caleb to take Kims business. My guess. So who is Caleb? #emmerdale."

"That Nicky the Nanny stole the watch, there's something dodgy about him and that Caleb #emmerdale," a fourth penned.

Actor Lewis Cope has hinted there might be a dark side to Nicky - as he says the character is "too good to be true".

Asked if Nicky had any dark secrets, he spilled: "At the moment he's a lovely person, and there's nothing to say [otherwise].... he kind of fits the bill. He is almost too good to be true though, but we'll have to wait and see."

With it hinted more will come out about him later down the line, he then said when asked about any possible secret links to other villagers, he told The Mirror and other press: "Nothing has come through yet... but it's a soap."
