The King family arrived in 2004 (as the Tates departed), but, apart from Jimmy King, his half-sister, Scarlett Nicholls (who has now left the show) and his three children, Elliott, Angelica and Carl, its members have been killed off. By 2018, most of the Dingles still remained, having actually increased their numbers in Emmerdale over the years. Their circumstances had changed in their two decades in the village; Chas Dingle owned half of The Woolpack, with Charity Dingle owning the other half, and Marlon was a chef there.
