* The 2010 Tram Crash is a mixture of this and TearJerker. The Joinery [[StuffBlowingUp explodes for no reason whatsoever]], which set off a chain reaction of a tram going off the rails and crashing into Dev's shop where Molly and her infant son were, trapping them and Sunita underneath the rubble. Ashley [[HeroicSacrifice gave his life]] [[DyingMomentOfAwesome to save several of his friends]] and allowed himself to be ''[[DeathFromAbove crushed]]'' [[DeathFromAbove to death]]. [[note]]Although the fact that he saved a serial cheating, [[TheUnfettered unfettered]] [[TheAlcoholic alcoholic]] and a [[ManipulativeBastard manipulative]] MartyStu makes you wonder why he even bothered.[[/note]] While Sunita and baby Jack were able to be saved, Molly eventually died from her internal injuries and gave Sally a DeathbedConfession about Jack's true paternity (Kevin) as she [[HellIsThatNoise painfully wheezed out her dying words.]] Rita also was trapped underneath the rubble of her own shop after the ''second'' part of the tram crashes into it, although she survives. [[BrokenBird Charlotte Hoyle]] is [[DropTheHammer beaten with a hammer]] by John Stape to prevent her from telling about their role in Colin Fishwick's death. She doesn't die, but instead ends up in [[AndIMustScream an irreversible coma]] with no brain activity, causing her parents to turn off her life-support, all of this happening as John's wife, Fiz, owing to the shock of the situation and fear that ''he'' was injured, gave birth to their daughter, Hope, who was born three months early and had to stay hospitalized for a while.
