‘Classic Kim would never tolerate this:’ Kim’s letting Dawn win in Emmerdale and it’s not on

Kim Tate has drawn criticism from Emmerdale fans who are convinced that the character would never have stood for Dawn Fletcher and her scheming – ketamine or no ketamine.

In last night’s episode (Thursday, January 9), Kim fell victim to Dawn’s plot to get her to tell ‘the truth’ about Will’s dead. Drugged out on ketamine, Kim saw visions of Will, and admitted that, while she could have moved faster, she hadn’t killed him.

Kim was saved by Joe, who walked in to find Kim in a state, and Dawn asking her questions. As Kim suffered a seizure, the pair called an ambulance and she was rushed to hospital.

There she made amends with Dawn, who finally seemed to believe her claims that she’d had nothing to do with Will’s death.

But why is Kim standing for Dawn’s manipulation anyway?

The ‘old’ Kim Tate wouldn’t have stood for Dawn, Emmerdale fans remember

Writing on X as these scenes aired, viewers shared their dismay at the sight of Kim turning into a pushover at the machinations of Dawn.

“Why have you turned Kim Tate into such a pathetic wimp? The old Kim would have chucked Dismal Dawn out of her house,” asserted one fan.

“The old Kim would never tolerate this nonsense!!” another said.

“Classic Kim would never tolerate this,” concurred a third.

“Our home? Your home Kim. She’s just the freeloader. Kim of ‘old’ would never give her another chance though pity for Dawn Kim has this against her,” another said.

Has Kim become a pushover – or does she have something up her sleeve?
