Woolpack pint-puller Louise Appleton will take revenge on lady's man Matthew King in rip-roaring fashion.

Matthew, the business tycoon played by actor Matt Healy, only went after Louise (Emily Symons) in order to win a bet, and caused her to break up with Emmerdale nice guy Terry Woods (Billy Hartman).

So when Matthew dumps her and Terry ignores her romantic gesture of cooking him dinner, Louise seeks a method of cutting down the man who ruined her love-life.

The furious barmaid takes a pair of scissors to all of Matthew's designer suits, an act which she knows will infuriate the style-conscious businessman.

But an Emmerdale insider says: "Despite being devastated about losing his wardrobe, he will soon get back on top and get his own back."

Louise has had a tumultuous love-life since joining the soap, dating Rodney, Ray Terry, Ronny and Ashley before this latest affair with Matthew.
