Emmerdale spoilers confirm fresh heartache for the Kings, as Jimmy King could be looking at a long stretch in prison.
His future on the ITV soap has been teased, as it has been revealed police will charge the character with death by dangerous driving next week.
The crime carries a current maximum of 14 years imprisonment, while there’s also possible fines and driving bans alongside this.
His sentencing has not yet been confirmed, but Jimmy will soon drop a bombshell on his wife Nicola leaving her floored.
Just weeks ago, Jimmy almost died in a fiery lorry crash when he drove into a barn after veering off the road at high speed.
In a panic fearing son Carl was being kidnapped, and that wife Nicola was in trouble, he drove in low sunlight and ended up struggling to see ahead of him.
Ahead in a barn set up for Paul Ashdale’s wedding to Mandy Dingle, Paul was having a showdown with Liv Flaherty about his lies and crimes.
Jimmy crashed into the barn and caused it to explode, eventually killing Paul while he and Liv were also severely injured.
In the fallout, Jimmy has faced questioning over the crash with him struggling to remember events from that day.
So news of him being charged will no doubt terrify him and his wife, as Jimmy is called to the police station once more.
On his return, Nicola is left in complete shock when he reveals what he has been charged with – but could this mean an exit for the character?

Things only get worse when Jimmy uncovers Nicola’s dodgy dealings with Mackenzie Boyd, with Charity Dingle also involved.
Jimmy is furious and a row erupts between the couple, just as Carl’s mother Juliette arrives.
When he kicks her out of the house, he rages at her in the street only to be watched by an upset Carl.
The next day, Nicola begs Jimmy for them all to pull together as a family but she’s left utterly floored when he makes a major declaration.
Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7pm on ITV, with an extra episode on Thursdays at 8pm.
