Many will have mourned the death of Hayley Cropper in 2014 after she took her own life to avoid the pain of terminal pancreatic cancer and died in her husband', Roy's, arms.
Fewer people will have missed Richard Hillman, the businessman turned serial killer who did everything he could to protect his new life, only for his wife Gail to find out.
After all was revealed, he attempted to kill her and her children by driving them all into the canal, but he was the only one to die.
There has only been one tram crash, but it is one the whole nation remembers.
During the first live episode to celebrate the 50th anniversary an explosion at The Joinery Bar caused the viaduct above to collapse, leading to a tram to derail and crash into several buildings.
The explosion and subsequent crash killed two characters and led to turmoil and hardship for many others.
