Coronation Street, Eastenders and Emmerdale are of course famous for their dramatic storylines that often end in someone’s death, so we thought we might take a look at some of the more grisly endings that soap characters have met over the years. For that reason, we’re not including deaths by natural causes… just in case you read this and think, ‘they missed that one out!’

We’ll kick off with Emmerdale and in fact, the very first episode of the show, which aired on October 16th, 1972, featured the funeral of Annie Sugden’s husband, Jacob, albeit that his end was from drinking himself into his box.

However, one of the best multi-death disasters ever shown on UK soap was the plane crash in Emmerdale – or Beckindale as the village was known then – in December, 1993.

It resulted in the deaths of Mark Hughes, Elizabeth Pollard, Archie Brooks and Leonard Kempinski. After the crash, Chris Tate was left confined to a wheelchair.
