TOM King came back to the Dales after a decade in Saudi Arabia and his return was tainted by painful memories. <\/p>\n

Emmerdale viewers saw Thomas rekindle with his father's family. But who was Carl King and what happened to him?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

ITV viewers were shocked when the Yorkshire-based drama brought back a crucial member of the King family. <\/p>\n

As mentioned above, Thomas King was spotted in the eponymous village after ten years in Saudi Arabia with his mother Colleen – who recently passed away from a fatal heart attack – and his sister Anya King. <\/p>\n

Actor James Chase reprised the role from Mark Flanagan earlier this year and made his Emmerdale debut when his alter ego walked out of the Hide and bumped into former flame Belle Dingle. <\/p>\n

But just as the pair became reacquainted and gave their relationship another go, Tom was haunted by memories of his villainous father's actions. <\/p>\n

Here's what you need to know about the infamous Carl King. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

How did Carl King die in Emmerdale?<\/h2>\n

Carl King, portrayed by Ingleton actor Tom Lister, died in October 2012 after more than eight years of causing carnage in the Dales.<\/p>\n

Carl was killed by Cameron Murray (Dominic Power) as part of Emmerdale's 40th anniversary. <\/p>\n

After Carl boasted about being able to make people disappear and remain untouched, Cameron hit him over the head with a brick.<\/p>\n

The death went down as one of the most iconic in soap history, with his last words, ironically, being "because I'm indestructible."<\/p>\n

Who was Carl King and when did he arrive in Emmerdale?<\/h2>\n

Carl was the first member of the King family to settle in Emmerdale and was introduced to viewers in early 2004 as the son of Tom and Mary King.<\/p>\n

In his debut scene Carl, who had taken on the name of Carl McKenzie, made everyone believe he was a driver starting off at Tate Haulage. <\/p>\n

It later transpired that he was, in fact, a spy for his family's own business, King & Sons, to whom he reported back after a day at Tate Haulage.<\/p>\n

This gift for deceiving others was also used in his personal life. <\/p>\n

Carl King set his sights on Louise Appleton once he'd settled into the Dales but their romance was unceremoniously cut short when his wife Colleen rocked up. <\/p>\n

Colleen dropped the bombshell that, not only was she married to Carl, she was also the mother of his two children, Tom and Anya. <\/p>\n

Carl later moved on to Chas Dingle (Lucy Pargeter), unaware that, years down the line, she would be the cause of his downfall. <\/p>\n
