Emmerdale aired heartbreaking scenes on Thursday night, as the village bid farewell to Bernice Blackstock.
Actress Samantha Giles bowed out of the ITV soap, as news of a devastating accident rocked the Dales.
Bernice's daughter Dee Dee was left hysterical as she had just been told her father Charlie had been involved in a car accident at home in Australia.
His condition was said to be serious, with Dee Dee keen to get back as soon as she could to be with him.
With it being Bernice's wedding day to Liam the following day, she was unsure what to do.
It's then that Dee Dee exploded at her mum, accusing her of never being there for her unlike her dad.
Bernice had spoken with the hospital to learn more about her ex-husband's condition.
It's then that she was told he could have brain damage or may be left paralysed.
Bernice didn't know how to tell her young daughter the truth, but begged her to let her return to Australia with her.
She told her family including daughter Gabby that they would be leaving on the next flight which was the following morning.
She told husband-to-be Liam that she could not marry him, needing to be with Dee Dee and an injured Charlie.
Unsure of how severe his injuries were and how long it might take for him to recover, Bernice couldn't guarantee when she'd be back.
She agreed to stay for as long as she was needed to support Charlie and their daughter.
Bernice had an emotional goodbye with her mum, sister and daughter, as well as Liam, before heading out of the village.
This was Bernice's final scenes, with the character's exit announced in September.
Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7pm on ITV, with an extra episode on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 8pm.
