She had been covering up for ex-fiancé Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard).

Daisy pleaded with Kit to delete the footage - a request he complied with.

In earlier scenes, Daniel stole Debbie's new car and crashed it - to avenge her outing Bethany (Lucy Fallon) for lying about having cancer,

Daisy ordered Daniel away as she drove off to hide any evidence.

She accidentally knocked into Shona Platt (Julia Goulding) who broke her wrist in the fall.

Shona lied to husband David (Jack P Shepherd) about how she sustained her injury.

As viewers know, she was actually covering up her shock affair - with David none the wiser.

Adam Barlow (Samuel Robertson), who is aware of her deceit, picked up Shona on her dishonesty.

He persuaded her to tell the police, who then re-evaluated the case as a hit and run.

A furious Kit, the only police officer aware of the driver's identity, confronted Daisy.

Coronation Street fans in shock as Daisy Midgeley makes fatal mistake with Ryan Connor

Daisy admitted to having a "near miss" while driving Debbie's car away, but hadn't known it was Shona.

In a further complication, Daniel overheard a conversation about Debbie's car being found torched.

Bethany had earlier decided to end their relationship and move out.

Daniel confronted Daisy - although they later had a moment of passion after she confessed lingering feelings for him.

Any potential reunion was soon scuppered, however, when Daisy came clean to him about Shona.

Darkest soap storylines

Over the years the likes of EastEndersEmmerdale and Coronation Street have all tried to try outdo each other with their outlandish plots in a bid to keep us tuning in each week. But here are some of the darkest that had fans in shock...

  • EastEnders: Tony grooming Whitney (2008-2009) - Tony King first appeared in Albert Square in 2008 as the boyfriend of Bianca, played by Patsy Palmer. But it was quickly revealed he was a paedophile who had been grooming vulnerable Whitney, Bianca’s adopted stepdaughter from a previous relationship, since she was 12. The shocking storyline attracted more than 200 complaints within a week of it beginning. Whitney waited until her 16th birthday to reveal the truth to a horrified Bianca, who called the police.
  • Emmerdale: Holly's drug addiction and shock death (2010-2016) - In 2010, Holly Barton (played by Sophie Powles) became Emmerdale's first teenage drug addict. The shocking storyline saw her taking cocaine on a night out before developing a deadly heroin habit. Parents John and Moira desperately tried to help get their daughter clean but when Holly returned in 2016, following a four-year absence, she quickly relapsed. Fans were left stunned and heartbroken when distraught Moira found Holly dead in her bed from a heroin overdose.
  • Hollyoaks: Luke's rape (2000) - Actor Gary Lucy was just 17 when he took on this groundbreaking storyline, which saw his character Luke Morgan become soap’s first male rape victim. Luke had endured a long-running bullying campaign by football rival Mark Gibbs - who raped him after Luke stood up to him. Luke was left suicidal following the brutal attack, before opening up to his brother Adam. Gibbs was sentenced to eight years in prison. Gary won the Best Actor gong at the British Soap Awards in 2000 for his performance.
  • Coronation Street: Evil Richard Hillman (2001-2003) - Just a mere mention of ‘Richard Hillman’ is enough to send a shiver down the spines of soap fans. He is often ranked one of the most evil soap villains and it’s not hard to see why. The smooth-talking financial adviser bashed his ex-wife Patricia over the head with a shovel. In a bid to keep his mother-in-law Audrey quiet, he set fire to her house. And when Maxine caught him trying to murder Emily Bishop, he took a crowbar to her head. He made his exit from the cobbles in 2003 when he drove Gail Platt, played by Helen Worth, and her family into the canal. They survived, but he didn’t.
  • When Daniel returned home, he found Bethany wanting to give their romance another go.

    Over at No.8, a confused David discovered Shona's bloody and torn jacket from her accident.
