10 Soap Stars Who Got FIRED From their Show ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-G6xX2g8-1oM.html

Soap deaths will always be affective as you watch these characters weekly for years and years, or even decades and decades

the actor who potrayed Aiden is right. we need to talk about the connection between mental health and suicide.

The episode where Kylie Platt dies has to be one of the saddest

Danielle dying in Ronnie's arm was a rlly sad loss, I will never forget. It's hard seeing your own child pass away 😥😥

Jamie dying in Eastenders was also sad. I think this is one of the reasons why Sonia became a nurse. She couldn't save her beloved Jamie but she did go on to save others. I still remember when she saved Bens life after he was shot in the Vic.

Cal's death on Casualty (and his funeral) and Raf's death on Holby City makes me cry every single time 🥺💔

The greatest acting should be given to Jean Alexander when Hilda brought Sean's belongings back from the hospital. Once you seen that scene, you can never forget it

It's between Shakil Kasimi and Dr Legg from Eastenders for me. Shakil was such a sweet kid and them having Harry and Meghan's wedding in the previous episode with him saying that a biracial princess gave him hope that he could do anything made it that much worse. And with Dr Legg, by the time he came back, he wasn't a familiar character to me, but him talking about the blitzes and how he was separated from his wife and she died made me cry.

Ashley's story was written so so well some of the best writing in a soap ever they ended up almost sweeping up all the Soap Awards and they where very much deserved

I cried my eyes out when Vera collected Jack.

How could they forget the newer sad deaths of eastenders? Abi Branning, either of the Dennys. Sharon's performance after her sons death is one of the best performances I've seen on a soap.

Oh geeze, Hayley's death..I cried so much I could hardly breathe. 😭😭😭😭

Shayne Ward's performance on his last scene was beyond words 👏🏻

This list needs a Part 2

Jack and Vera's scene was so sweet.

Although you didn't hear it, when Nigel has to break to his step daughter Claire that her mum Debbie was killed in a car accident. While Grant Mitchell looks on sympatheticly from his car

No Jamie Mitchell? His last Christmas was my first. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

Danielle from Eastenders ought to be on there, that shit is depressing

Carmel McQueen death from Hollyoaks had me in tears😭😭

There should be one for each soap in my opinion. The ones that destroyed me were Shakil and Denny in EastEnders.

I cried my eyes out when Max from Hollyoaks died😢😰

i remember bawling when gennie died in emmerdale that one will always stick with me…and kylie in coronation street too

I think deaths of babies and children are the saddest in soaps 😭 and cancer related deaths are also always sad too

Chantelle Atkins death was very sad 😭

Tiffany Mitchell for me still was heartbreaking despite it being so dramatic.

The one that gets me the most is Tricia from Emmerdale. That scene when they wheel her away through the doors and poor Marlon is watching on knowing he'll never see her again tears me apart.

My top 15 deaths in British soap dramas are: 1. Archie Mitchell the killer was unknown EastEnders 2. Callum Logan murdered by Kylie Platt coronation street 3. Derek Braming got disowned at Christmas and suffered a heart attack on Christmas day EastEnders 4. Dennis Rickman Jr killed by Ian Beale EastEnders 5. Dennis Rickman got stabbed EastEnders 6.

Tony Stewart suffered a heart attack coronation street

What about seb in coronation street ? That was devastating 😢😢

My maiden name was Stanley. When I got married, I got a lot of good-natured ribbing at work about Coronation Street and becoming an Ogden, so decided not to double-barrel my surnames so I'd not become Stanley Ogden! Fast forward a few years and my hubby died of cancer. I was brokenhearted, obviously, but even though I'd never been a Corrie watcher, I looked up the scene on RU-vid where Stan's belongings were returned to Hilda along with his ashes. She laid his glasses on top of the urn. Hubby is on the bedside table he used in our bedroom with his glasses perched on the basket in the same way. These scenes and others really help in reminding me I'm not alone in my grief -- most people will experience it at some point and showing deaths and their aftermath is a really important part of fiction for the bereaved. The earliest known written story -- Gilgamesh -- features the death of Gil's friend Enkidu, and no doubt the last ever written book will cover such themes as well. Also -- I'm an NHS worker, albeit in property management. It's sad to see Holby go, but well done them for portraying the tireless work and compassion of the staff so brilliantly. IRL the staff at my local hospital -- North Hampshire in Basingstoke -- worked so hard to make my husband comfortable and get him a hospice bed even in the face of the terrible state of the wards there. I have my own opinions on how the HS should be funded, but there's no doubt people work so hard and give so much of their time to that vocation.

Damn I never the last one coming watch this video. I lost my 19 year old April 8. So this hit me in the gut.

Holby City ended? Genuinely surprised to hearvthat

Raf's death in Holby City completely broke me - I was still in tears even after the episode was over

Laurel and Ashley didn't marry in 2011! They married in 2005, divorced in 2012 then remarried in 2016 when Ashley's dementia became the centre focus then of course they had baby dotty, and they didn't lose a baby, they thought they did but turned out the babies were swapped and their son Arthur was still alive!

Jac Naylor death was so heartbreaking to watch my favourite character in Holby city 💔💔💔

What no Pat? No Peggy? Also it’s Liz Dawn who played Vera Where did you get Smith from 😂

I think all soap death's are sad, they are all well written and acted really well

Time to add Lola from Eastenders and Liv from Emmerdale😢

What about Wilson in Friday Night Dinner? That was heartbreaking 🥺 Poor Jim! 💔

It has to b said the performances were phenomenal I remember watching some of those scenes and I was in floods and floods of tears superb acting from Jane Danson Shayne Ward Alison King David Neilson and many others Xx

Batley from Emmerdale was the saddest soap death. I cried for days!

where was Peggy's, Pat's, Bradley's, Shakil's or Ronnie and Roxy's death

Liz Dawn NOT Smith!! Ffs 🙄🤦🏼‍♂️

Kylie will always be the saddest 💔

Alice dingle death. U got names mixed up. Its Sam dingle and his son is called Samson

vera duckworth was played by liz dawn not liz smith please get the names right .

Got the years wrong about Jack and Vera Vera was first and Jack didn't come into it till 1979

Ethel's death was mine next to Jamie Mitchell's death

I think Judy Mallett from Coronation Street should be on here. Probably one of the saddest Corrie deaths of all time. And probably soaps in general. For those who don't know, Terry Duckworth sold a cut-and-shut car to his mum Vera, and one day in September 1999 when Vera went shopping in the Freshco's supermarket, she bumped into Judy and asked her if she would like a lift home. When they were reversing in the car park another car bumped into them as it went the wrong way, which led to Judy having an embolism in her left leg. Judy decided not to go to the hospital as she thought it wasn't very serious. While her husband Gary was at Ashley and Maxine Peacock's wedding she decided to hang out some washing in the back yard, despite Emily Bishop telling her to rest. Whilst she was putting the washing out, she collapsed and died and you could hear her 9 month old twins, Billy and Becky, crying and screaming from inside the house, and Emily eventually found her lifeless body lying on the hard ground after she came back from doing some shopping for her. Ken Barlow and Natalie Barnes tried to help Emily revive Judy, and to call an ambulance, but it was already far far to late. When Gary returned to the house after the wedding he held Judy's body and refused to believe she was dead at first and then realised that there was nothing anyone could do. The following Christmas, Gary and the twins spent some time with Vera, her husband Jack, Tyrone Dobbs and Tyrone's dog Monica, Terry decided to show up wishing Jack and Vera a happy Christmas, not realising that Gary would be there. Gary punched Terry after he made a horrible remark about Judy's death saying that it was just her time and they got into a massive fight. Gary lost his wife and Billy and Becky lost their mum all because of Terry, other wise Judy would probably still be alive. If that's not upsetting then I don't know what is.

They could do a whole list of Corrie Hayley, aiden, Kylie, Oliver, roary, Alison

how DARE you not include Jade Albright, Lisa Loveday and Neeta Kaur
