Has Thomas King left Emmerdale for good?

Off_the_hook13 · 12/04/13 - 03:03

Anyone know if he will be back?

nWo 2013 · 12/04/13 - 03:15

Yes he has left for good.

Samantha Giles tweeted goodbye and that she was going to miss him.

CherryRose · 12/04/13 - 03:18

I hope he comes back I liked Thomas.

Off_the_hook13 · 12/04/13 - 03:26

Thanks.

That's a shame, I actually quite liked him.

Dixon · 12/04/13 - 03:49

Have to be honest and say i think he's been massively overrated!
Potential for sure, but anyone would think he's the new James Dean going by some of the comments i read.

Came in on a terrible storyline and went out on an even worse one.
Generally glum, miserable looking face with a scowl to go with it.

Having said that, i could see potential and room for improvement, and think it's an absolute farce they have let him go, yet we still have the atrocious Sean Spencer, and i mean atrocious on every single level. Grrr!!!

That's a strange decision from TPTB, I'm quite surprised. It seems Thomas was always meant to have a short stint on the show. But I think it's the wrong time to get rid of him with Cameron set to be revealed as Carl's true killer. They should've at least waited for that storyline to be wrapped up before they ended his stint. I'd have liked to have seen Thomas's reaction to the murder reveal. Are they seriously telling us Thomas wouldn't return to Emmerdale after he finds out that his dad wasn't killed by Chas, but in fact killed by Cameron (the guy who bullied him for weeks)?

I quite liked Thomas myself and thought he was a superior character/actor to Sean the Imbecile, Belle Dingle and all the other teeny characters, because he had a rougher edge to him unlike the others. Seemed like a pretty decent actor too, which is hard to come by with teenage actors. And I really liked the idea of Carl's son taking over his role in the village as chief bad boy

. A missed opportunity with a potentially interesting character.

Actually didn't think he was too bad as a character.

Emmerdale don't like potential.

Yes I wanted a new Carl, he reminded me of him and was decent looking to, proper troubled hot boy look,

Hope he is back soon.

A 'Thomas King' could return in a few years.

I'm sure he will. I just think it's the wrong time to get rid of the current Thomas at this particular time with the upcoming murder reveal.

Popsiemia · 12/04/13 - 18:19

I have a feeling that Thomas will return in next few months. Lets hope so. I could not belive how much like Carl he looked and not a bad actor either.

Come on, lets have Thomas back.

JohnMc1 · 12/04/13 - 18:26

Its obvious they only brought him back just to Chas' stalker because they had no idea what to do with him afterwards.

Ber · 12/04/13 - 19:04

What did he actually do to get himself so disliked and sent home?

Agreed. I doubt he would have been so highly rated if he had not been recast (and aged by a few years. The previous Thomas was around Jacob's age and height:D).

Can anyone explain why the producers let Thomas - a great young actor - go, and kept Sean -who is the opposite?

It's a puzzler that's for sure

[Deleted User] · 15/04/13 - 01:04

Surely he'll be back? Right?

Great actor. Major potential.

Chuckster2 · 15/04/13 - 01:05

He reminded me of his dad who they stupidly killed off.

[Deleted User] · 15/04/13 - 03:37

Can't believe they got rid of Baby Carl but we have to suffer imbecile Sean :mad: Megan is right, he is a degenerate. And Thomas can actually act, hes the best of all the teenagers. He must come back.

laurengirl · 15/04/13 - 03:39

he actually looked like he would be carls son anyone agree?

Yes, this was commented a lot on here when he joined the programme

Agreed. He actually looks like a mini Carl - an angier-looking version

Too true, Larkenn. Well said.

Didn't Cameron disappear to fetch his kids the same time Thomas disappeared?

Who's to say Cameron didn't kill Thomas before getting the kids.

Because we saw Jimmy on the telephone to Colleen (Thomas' mother) being told that he was back home in Saudi Arabia.

The Thomas King character might be back after a few years.
