Initially Tom King was the
patriarch of his family, making sure everyone knew he was in charge both at home and within the family business, King and Sons. His eldest son Jimmy strived to be his second in command, working for his father since the age of 14, though Tom favoured Jimmy's wife Sadie and gave her important jobs, rather than giving them to Jimmy. Sadie later betrayed the family, and kidnapped Tom with the help ofCain Dingle , leading to her departure from the village.Tom's second son, Matthew also wanted to have power within the business, and regularly came to blows with Jimmy about it. Tom's younger sons Carl and Max were initially low down on the status scale, and Max didn't work for the company, instead working as a vet until his death in October 2005.
