Harriet
Harriet Finch, played by Katherine Dow Blyton, died after falling from her quad bike and being caught up in an explosion caused by lightning.
After leaving the show, actress Katherine said she will not miss wearing her police uniform, but loved playing the role of a "flawed" vicar.
The soap star told The Sun: "I loved playing the vicar and the fact that she was flawed and she was a bit off the wall.
"She had a sense of humour and I loved the character. I will very much miss playing her but she's with me obviously. We're not too dissimilar."
Liv
Liv joined the death toll after becoming pinned up against a wall by a flyaway caravan.
Fans were left in tears as her distraught husband Vinny was forced to say his final goodbyes to her as she slipped away.
As sombre music played and Liv declared her love for Vinny, she uttered her final sentence: “I never knew anyone could make me so happy.”
Liv then drew her final breath leaving Vinny devastated.

Does Sam Dingle die on Emmerdale?
On Monday night (October 17, 2022) fans couldn't believe what they were seeing when Sam Dingle was caught up in a herd of stampeding cows.
The gruesome scene saw the fan favourite - played by James Hooton - impaled on a digger’s spikes.
In Tuesday's episode (October 18, 2022) Sam was seen taken to hospital, with his life hanging in the balance.
Actor James has played Sam on the soap since 1995, so it would be a HUGE blow to fans to see the loveable lad killed off.
Many fans took to Twitter to share their concern, with one saying: "Please please not Sam I can’t deal. He is the heart of Emmerdale."
While another tweeted: "Sam is one of the best Emmerdale characters surely they can’t kill him off."
But could it be the end of Sam? Actor James has even suggested his character could be killed off.
"You never know what this show is going to throw at you", he told The Sun.
"You don’t know what the outcome’s going to be."
Who else will die on Emmerdale?
On Thursday night's episode (October 20, 2022) Sampson went missing in the storm, leaving fans fearing he could be next on the death list.
Director Tim O’Mara has revealed the death toll wouldn't stop at Harriet and Liv, and could go up to as many as EIGHT people.
Speaking to ITV Yorkshire, he said: “No one is safe. There’s a possibility of eight or nine characters not being around for very long.
“We do go to the hospital on a number of visits, a number of people hurt by debris flying around the village, there are accidents in the woods, trees falling on people.
“There are massive accidents at the farm which might attract the attention of one or two characters.
“And there’s a massive problem in the village that will involve two of the other characters.
"Plus there’s some stunts in the woods nearby.
“And of course, there’s a wedding.
