Thomson: 'Emmerdale plot gets scary'

Emmerdale actress Kim Thomson has said that she hopes viewers find her forthcoming scenes with co-star Lyndon Ogbourne "hard-hitting".

In tonight's episode of the Yorkshire-based soap, Ogbourne's character Nathan Wylde will be seen attacking Thomson's alter ego Faye Lamb - his father's first wife - after misreading her attempts to comfort him as a come-on.

Speaking to the Daily Record about the dramatic encounter, Thomson explained: "Since I arrived, there have been lots of fight scenes. I've been the slapper and the slapee.

"The moment between Faye and Nathan is pretty scary. He blames Faye for everything his family is going through and pins Faye to the sofa after he thinks she's coming on to him. She's not but Faye is terrified.

"It's on at 7pm so it's not going to be crazy but I hope it's quite hard-hitting."

Tonight's episode marks the beginning of an eventful week for Nathan, who is also about to discover that his mother Natasha (Amanda Donohoe) killed his dad Mark.
