Debbie Webster and Ronnie Bailey’s wedding seemed like the culmination of happiness after a series of tragedies Weatherfield had witnessed.

But just minutes after they exchanged vows, the street descended into chaos.

Carl – the man who had a questionable relationship with Debbie – appeared in the pouring rain, drunk and shouting hateful words.

Just when everyone thought he would leave, Carl suddenly snatched the car keys, pulled Debbie into the passenger seat, and sped away amidst the screams.

The pristine white wedding dress was stained with mud, the tires churned the pavement, and seconds later, a terrifying crash echoed through the night.

Weatherfield had never witnessed anything so brutal. Broken glass, the overturned car by the riverbank, and Debbie lying unconscious – all left viewers speechless.

Meanwhile, Ronnie desperately chased after them in the rain, crying out his wife’s name in despair. In the final scene, Debbie’s wedding ring falls from her finger and rolls into a murky puddle – a symbolic image of the collapse of everything that had just been built.

The episode ends with Steve’s line: “Weatherfield has just become hell…” – and the audience knows that Corriedale has only just begun.
