Your big day can never be the happiest day of your life in Soapland. It is generally the worst day of your life, where a funeral will culminate in a fight and a wedding will inevitably be either halted by the reveal of an affair or this will come at the evening reception. A wedding is also a good place for death.

Which soap characters have been most unlucky on their big day?

I honestly prefer in soaps when the wedding JUST HAPPENS! It's such a novelty now a days.

I loathe characters who take it something like three attempts to make it down there, it's not cute or funny.

I would say Lofty had the worst day, bless him.

Rosemary's funeral in Emmerdale ended badly.

Does anyone actually die at a funeral?

Pretty much immediately afterwards Matthew dug up the coffin and had it crushed in the rubbish truck.

My gran was at a funeral where someone died. She didn't even know the person whose funeral it was. She just stayed for the service after mass. Sort of like Blanche at every court case lol.

Sharon and Dennis's wedding where their dad got dug up is probably up there for the worst!

Texas Longford being pushed from a window sort of put a damper on things.

Carmel and Calvin's wedding - massive mood drop from watching the married couple take their first dance to watching him die in her arms, and then go home, widowed.

Peter and Amanda's wedding was quite bad in H&A.

Molly's funeral wasn't great in CS, not that she deserved a good send off.

The King's on Emmerdale had some pretty bad weddings...

Tom and Charity (2004)
Tom left Charity at the alter after exposing her "affair" with Cain that Sadie and Cain had set up.

Sadie and Alasdair (2005)
Matthew, Tom, Jimmy and Carl gatecrashed the wedding and Sadie left Alasdair at the alter for Matthew.

Tom and Rosemary (2006)
After several punch ups between various King's and villagers before and after the wedding ceremony, Tom was pushed through a top floor window to his death, later revealed to have been done by his son Carl.

Jimmy and Kelly (2007)
Ended pretty much the same way as Tom and Charity's after Jimmy discovers Kelly faked a miscarriage and had an abortion.

Matthew and Anna (2008)
Carl exposed that Matthew didn't help Anna's father Donald when he collapsed and died of a heart attack. After a huge punch up, Matthew crashes trying to run Carl over in a van and flies through the windscreen to his death.

Carl and Lexi (2009)
Carl's angered that his kids can't make the wedding then almost leaves Lexi at the alter after realizing he still loves Chastity.

Jimmy and Nicola (2010)
The wedding almost doesn't go ahead because Nicola's in court hours before the wedding.

Carl and Chastity (2010)
Carl and Eve's affair is exposed and the wedding ends very similar to Tom and Charity's.
