And while he was rushed to the hospital, he succumbed to his injuries and died before he was able to see his son.
Derek, meanwhile, followed Gary towards the Christmas Fair - where the Platt family were celebrating David's birthday.
He shot Gary in the shoulder, before climbing to the top of the Heater Skelter. The loan shark tried to wrestle the gun away from Derek, but the gun fired a shot - which hit the box the Shona had been hiding in.
He then fell from the top of the Heater Skelter, before hitting the cobbles below.
And viewers were particularly heartbroken by Robert's death - especially as he had been making plans to be near his newborn son.
I know what Robert did was terrible but I really didn’t want him to die :( #corrie
