Patsy Kensit makes her highly-anticipated return as the formidable Sadie King in today’s Emmerdale episode which is now on ITVX and airs at 8pm on ITV1.
The peace of the Yorkshire Dales is shattered by the arrival of a helicopter, signaling the return of the woman who once brought gold digging schemes, explosive affairs, and elaborate betrayals to the village. Sadie King wastes no time making her presence felt, laying a single red rose at the site of Jimmy King’s crash. While Sadie claims she has returned simply to pay her respects, Jimmy’s wife Nicola, played by Nicola Wheeler, remains deeply skeptical of her motives.

Viewers are left to wonder: Has time softened the village’s most ruthless social climber, or is this the beginning of a fresh wave of manipulation and drama?
First introduced in 2004, Sadie King became synonymous with ruthless ambition and high-stakes conflict. As the former wife of Jimmy King, her explosive history includes entanglements with Robert Sugden and Cain Dingle.
