Emmerdale viewers have "worked out" who took Will's watch amid wild theories why it went missing in the first place.
During tonight's episode, January 27, Kim Tate's husband Will Taylor caught Sam Dingle in his wife's kimono after having a shower at Home Farm. Sam explained his financial difficulties and how his boiler broke at home, adding he didn't think anyone would mind if he had a quick wash.
Will was not exactly pleased but agreed to let Sam off with a warning and promised he wouldn't tell Kim. However, when his watch goes missing a short time later, he immediately suspected it was Sam or his wife Lydia as selling the watch would make them quick money to fix their boiler.

Accusing Sam of theft, Will said: "It was only me and Sam in here earlier and he was saying what a nice watch it was just before I went off to work on my car." Lydia challenged him, saying: "And what's that got to do with Sam?"
Will said: "Well, he was the only one here, it's not walked out on its own, has it?"
The argument got more heated before Kim walked in right as Will threatened to call the authorities. Kim issued an ultimatum to the couple, saying that if they didn't return the watch, Lydia would lose her job.
Hurt that Kim would call her husband a thief, Lydia quit and stormed out. The episode ended with viewers none the wiser as to who actually took the watch.
Taking to Twitter, many said they were convinced it was Nicky, the nanny. This is not the first time they have been suspicious of him.
Following his arrival in the village, fans speculated that he could have links to Joe Tate. @BluerayBird asked: "So who took the watch? Either misplaced or the boy Nanny!"
@SARamsay1 wrote: "What if the nanny has taken the watch for some reason!?"
@MegWarr09285908 agreed, saying: "I reckon the Manny has the watch."
@Trish270M speculated: "I reckon the nanny took the watch to give Jamie Tate. Wasn’t it his to begin with?"
@MattZeeMiller said: "Who's betting the random watch turns up all ok and wills made an a*** of himself again..."
@EmmaDale022 commented: "Will pawned the watch because he's broke."
@ShellzJackson asked: "WAIT! Did Sam take the watch?!"
