But there was one last twist in store as Daisy was in the cab and ready to start her new life away from Weatherfield.
Coronation Street's 2024 shock exits
Corrie has said goodbye to several cast members this year. Let's break down who's left the famous soap:
Eliza Woodrow (Savannah Kunyo)
The youngster moved to live with her dad Dom Everett, who went back on the £10,000 bribe Eliza's grandfather Stu had offered to keep him out of her life.
Paul Foreman (Peter Ash)
After being diagnosed last year, the fan favourite was devastated to learn he only had months left to live.
Viewers know he is planning to take his own life to end his suffering.
Summer Spellman (Harriet Bibby)
Though she struggled to decide with her stepdad Paul's impending death from MND, she was convinced she had to live her life to the full.
Simon Barlow (
The Weatherfield legend
Simon's been on a downward spiral ever since and his exit could end in tragedy.
It looks likely she'll be heading to Dublin after securing a lucrative new job, leaving her colleague and fling Adam Barlow behind.
Show stalwart Sue Cleaver, who plays Eileen Grimshaw, is taking a break to star in the Sister Act The Musical UK tour. She will be back filming in May once her dates on the tour come to an end.
Her character left the Street after her son Jason broke his back after falling off a moped in Asia.
The camera panned down to her phone to reveal that she is not going to Brighton, but instead she's fleeing the country entirely.
Daisy used the money to book a one way trip to Bali, and viewers last saw her pull down her sunglasses as she was the one to drive off into the sunset.

Ray D'Arcy reflects on radio career as he opens up about 'calm' home life

RTE star Ray D'Arcy has reflected on 'finding his feet' when he went from being a children's presenter to a radio star. D'Arcy's first position as TV presenter began in 1988 on the show Jo Maxi before he replaced Ian Dempsey as the presenter of The Den, RTÉ's flagship children's television series in 1990. In 2015, he began hosting his Radio One show, after leaving Today FM after 14 years. Reflecting on his RTE Radio One show, he said: 'I suppose most programmes eventually, unless they're current affairs or news programmes, evolve around the person who's presenting them, their strengths and weaknesses and their interests. 'If not, it doesn't work because the person who's presenting it needs to feel strongly about things and be interested in things or else it'll show. "In the early days, it was very much about finding my feet. I'd come from children's television. I was an adult, but probably hadn't really given a lot of thought to a lot of the stuff I should have because I didn't have to. 'Then radio allowed me to, because I had to form my own opinions about things rather than borrow somebody else's. It happened organically and the format of the programme wasn't prescriptive when we started, it allowed us to do everything. 'We found that people were sharing their lives with us and they trusted us. Now, we don't do as much as I'd like to for various reasons. But that was very encouraging,' he told the RTE Guide. But he said the interviews he was most nervous about were the ones with people wanting to share their personal stories. "The ones that I get most nervous about are the ones that you feel you owe the people involved, that you feel you have to do a good job for them. "They're mostly not well-known people who have decided, for whatever reason, to tell you their story. 'Oftentimes, it's a heartbreaking story, and you feel then under pressure not to mess it up." The Kildare native also opened up about his home life with his wife Jenny and their two children, 18-year-old Katie and Tom, who turns 13 next month. Ray and Jenny tied the knot in 2013 and says their relationship and home life works so well because they are first and foremost friends. The radio star added that cutting out alcohol has also helped to create a calm home environment. "Jenny and I are best friends and companions and husband and wife, and we've two healthy children and they're lovely," Ray said. "We're very lucky and we appreciate that. "[Life at home] is very calm. I'd say a huge part of that is because neither Jenny nor I drink. "Not that we were big drinkers, but it has brought a calm into our life that you can only experience when you do it. "Drink for a lot of reasons, even if you don't drink that much, just brings spikes in moods." Ray's daughter Kate is doing her Leaving Cert at the moment and Ray is supporting her through what can be a stressful time. He told the RTÉ Guide: "I was talking to a guy recently and he described having somebody in Leaving Cert as playing that winter Olympic sport [curling], where you push the thing down and then everybody paves the way in front of it. "It's like that and we're happy to do that. We're there for whatever she wants. "I still have nightmares about my Leaving Cert all these years later. Now, I don't share that with Kate." Tom, meanwhile, will officially be a teenager when he celebrates his 13th birthday next month. Ray added: "Kate has been a teenager for five years, so she went off and did her own thing. And we're going to lose Tom soon now because he's hitting 13 next month. "You can just see it - I asked him for a hug the other day on the couch and he wasn't up for it. The same evening his mother asked for a hug but she got one." Ray acknowledges his children's experience of growing up is very different to his one. He told the publication: "I came from a family of nine, and now we have two children. "We lived in a council house, a very small house, so it was completely different. "As a father, you want to give your kids everything, but yet you want to pass on some of your own values, which is probably an impossible task, but you do try." Ray and Jenny have rules at home but wouldn't consider themselves to be strict parents. "You'd have to ask my children. They'd say that we are stricter than their friends' parents. Now look, we're not. "We've encountered strictness. We're not strict. We're very relaxed and we're here for them. "Obviously, there are rules, and all households have them. "But we've often said, we're not laissez-faire and we're not dictatorial. We're somewhere in the middle."
