Wow... What a brilliant actor! I hope he is rewarded for this, he's an absolute star on EastEnders, I'm no expert but he has portrayed a stroke very well!

    He's been deserving of great material for ages.

    Agreed ........ he's been superb. Glad that the character/actor has had a big storyline. Rudolph Walker's talents have been under utilised for awhile.

    I think all the older members of the cast have all been better catered for with regard to storylines and screen time under DTC which I am very pleased about. A lot of my favourite characters/ actors are from the older generation.

    It's a sensational performance. He has transformed, and I can't really remember when a soap has portrayed something like this in such graphic detail. A great move from DTC.

    Rudolph Walker proves he is one of the show's top actors.

    I disagree - over the last few weeks Rudolph has been mumbling his lines.

    I can hardly understand a word he is saying. :D

    As all strokes are a bit different, it's not that difficult.

    RW is really excelling in this story-line and I think EastEnders are portraying the aftermath of his stroke really well, so far.

    He's always been a favourite character of mine so I'm glad to see he is being used well.

    He is a tremendous actor i also love the part he plays in one of my favourite film. I still cant believe how realistic he made the stroke look

    So glad that Rudolph has been given a big storyline- Patrick deserves to be at the forefront of the show.

    Bloody hell I was joking about a fictional character folks.

    For the record Rudolph is a superb actor - sheer class and is very underused by TPTB - let's face it he has hardly been in his own storyline - it has all been about Ian.

    This is a disgrace.

    Personally, I think he is a very ordinary actor and always has been. His current role as post stroke victim is not a particularly difficult thing to act although he is making a reasonable job of it.

    Agree with you on all counts.

    Just because they've bothered to give Patrick a serious storyline doesn't mean we should be impressed by it. The acting has been very here nor there, imo and the storyline revolved around Ian in the moments where it should have been more focused on Patrick and although some strokes can be recovered from quicker than others, this one didn't give enough of itself in terms of a storyline.

    PS: People need to lighten up about what can and can't be said about Patricks stroke. It's a soap where characters get killed for our entertainment. Lighten up! It ain't real.

    Indeed.

    Real life is bad enough.
