“Happy Kim Tate Week.”
After a 19-year absence from Emmerdale, one of the soap world’s most iconic baddies ever has made an epic comeback.
Kim Tate returned to the dales this evening and made it clear that she wasn’t going to lie low.
She had been locked up for 20 years but the scheming villain is back to her old tricks.
We saw her leave prison, where she was greeted by Graham.
Kim, played by Claire King, wasted no time in telling him about her plans to regain ownership of Home Farm and take down her step-grandson Joe Tate after he stabbed her in the back.
She was only on screen for a few moments but viewers were buzzing over the iconic character.
Happy Kim Tate Week. Here for ALL the campery. #Emmerdale

I actually can’t cope with Kim Tate just coming out of prison… does she go back home? Visit her 20 year old son? NOPE straight to Home Farm to cause murder! Iconic ? #Emmerdale

Well done @Emmerdale. You brought back Kim Tate and you brought her back in style.. As the villain we all remember. You didn’t make the mistake of bringing back a legendary character a changed person, like many other soaps do. She’s back and badder than ever! #Emmerdale
