Her death means Daniel – played by Rob Mallard – has to raise their son Bertie alone, and he clearly looks overwhelmed as he stands beside the funeral flowers for his late wife.

His eyes red with tears, Daniel looks smark in a blue suit as he tries to gather his thoughts, before crouching beside where Sinead is buried and clutching his hands together.

In other pictures released from the set, Sinead’s wicker coffin can be seen being carried into the church, with colourful flowers on the top as well as pink, white and green ribbons on the side.

Heartbreakingly, there is also a floral display which reads ‘Mummy’, and the baby who plays Bertie was seen on set.

The cast had to deal with some pretty damp weather conditions to film the scenes, with Rob and his co-stars Bill Roache and Colson Smith just some of the actors who were seen wearing big waterproof jackets to keep warm between takes.

Vicar Billy Mayhew, played by Daniel Brocklebank, brought a little light relief to the proceedings as did Chesney actor Sam Aston who had a little laugh.

The hard-hitting episode began with Sinead drifting in and out of consciousness in her bedroom after refusing to see out her final days in a hospice.

Surrounded by husband Daniel auntie Beth, and son Bertie, Sinead battled side-effects and illness as she slowly accepted her fate.

The episode ended with Billy sharing a prayer over Sinead’s body while the other characters were shown coming to terms with the news.

In real life the cast have struggled with the hard hitting storyline and Sinead actress Katie McGlynn revealed she needed counselling after filming.
