Nicollette Sheridan Car Crash in Desperate Housewives

Nicollette Sheridan is seen here in her electrifying final scenes in Desperate Housewives where she is involved in a dramatic car smash.

Sheridan, who recently announced she is quitting the U.S. show in which she plays Edie Britt, ploughs into a phone pole after swerving to avoid hitting Orson Hodge (Kyle MacLachlan).

Then, as she gets out the car and steps into a puddle she is electrocuted by a falling overhead wire.
But viewers will be left on a cliffhanger to see whether Wisteria Lane's resident maneater survives.
