Earliest that I really remember is the christmas Ken Barlow tried to kill himself by overdose-

he only took three bloody paracetemol in the space of the whole evening before Bet Lynch talked him out of it- even as a child I knew that 3 paracetemol wouldn't kill him-

I was so annoyed- my mum remembers it to this day- I musn't have liked Ken much as a child!!!

Probably the Rovers Return fire in, IIRC, 1986, when I would have been 7. My mother disliked the sight of Bet being sick on the floor, through smoke inhalation.

If that's deemed more of an 'incident' than a storyline, then I would probably have to say the subsequent Rita/Alan Bradley domestic abuse/disappearance storyline is the first one I can consciously remember a lot of from genus through to conclusion.

The Meg Mortimer/Crossroads Motel fire storyline!

Or, Bet Lynch, Betty Turpin and Fred going out in Annie Walker's Rover car, and the car ending up in a lake...

Mike Baldwin taking over the factory in Corrie and Benny's girlfriend getting killed on the way to their wedding in Crossroads. Not sure which came first though. In Emmerdale, I can remember Mr Wilkes and Amos getting t' Woolpack's first microwave, but I think that was a bit later on.

first ever - Peggy Mitchell arriving in EastEnders after Grant tried to kill Phil

in others
Neighbours - thinking it through I must first tuned in shortly after Cheryl Stark fell pregnant; but I can't quite think of what the main storylines would have been at that time. Can't have been too memorable
EastEnders - Peggy Mitchell's first show in 1994
Coronation Street - Don Brennan kidnaps Alma Baldwin
Hollyoaks - Luke's rape

Blimey, I must be so much older than all of you!

I can remember Ian / Sharon / Kelvin (and I think someone else whose name escapes me) as teenagers trying to be pop stars and singing Venus by Bananarama.

Emmerdale- The Plane Crash. My neighbour had it on and I sat and watched with her. Then carried on watching.

Home and Away-Sophie being pregnant

Hollyoaks-The very first episode

Neighbours- Not sure exactly sure but the Brett/Danni/Michael years. I do remember the Martin's first episode when they was in a Car?

Corrie/Brookie/Eastender- Same as Neighbours not 100% sure. But they were always on in our House. So any storylines from 92/93 most likely

Emmerdale: Graham Clark threw Rachel Hughes off a cliff and killed her, i think that was about 1998-1999?? I was 9.

Eastenders: Tiffany dying, that was in 1998 i was 8

Corrie: Hayley being a transexual, 1998 again.

Hollyoaks: Lewis Richardson killing himself, 2001, i was 11

Can't remember any earlier than that, those are the ones that stuck in my mind.
