Corrie - Roy " it's Important you talk''
On corrie Roy looked at Kylie and it was obvious she was dying he then looked at David and said ' it's important you talk ' and David nodded - do you think toy said that for medical reasons or to subtly say to David anything u have to say say now ? I think it was rather beautifully done myself

Another thing I noticed while watching it back last night was, how beautiful Paula Lane looked in her last scenes, without the makeup etc
Totally agree, although she would have been wearing makeup, just that it was on a really pale foundation to simulate the effect of blood draining from her face. Have another look through the sequence and you'll see that she starts out, immediately after the assault, with slightly rosy cheeks which then gradually pale over the ensuing minutes.
If you go to Google Images and type in 'Paula Lane' (as opposed to Kylie Platt) you'll see just how attractive she is. Coronation Street did her no favours unfortunately, but then that was her character and she played it beautifully. I shall miss her.
By the way, you're not a lone saddo .. I've watched it back twice already and still find it moving!
Roy handled it well. Very subtle.
Roy probably knew it would only be a matter of a minutes so he wanted David to get his 'last words' in before Kylie died.
I've always thought Paula Lane was really pretty, even as Kylie
But we wouldn't have had those scenes.
It's strange the best storyline to being signed of by Stuart Blackburn was his last.
And also - when David first lies down next to "dead" Kylie she stil had the ventilator-mouthpiece still strapped to her head. The very next scene it's gone. We have to assume David removed to so she could look beautiful in death.
Damn - I must be sad as well.
You've got me at it now, talking like it was real!! Lol!!
His best storyline?
There are those that have the opinion that there's too much violence in soaps and maybe would have rather had Kylie die through some other way, but I think the way she was killed works well, personally. She was just about to finally get the true happiness she always wanted, with her family, then that all gets taken away from her by the life she had escaped - the thugs she used to hang out with before meeting David. There's something really sad about that.
I've watched it again too, I've been trying to see when exactly the guy gets his knife out during the struggle.
I'm not sure it'd made much difference. Of course, it's important for a patient to preserve their energy by not moving or trying to talk too much, but it seems that type of injury would have had bad odds of survival no matter what. What she needed was trauma surgeons to repair the damage, but it's not always possible to get to them in time and even then, they can only try their best.
I agree.
I know some might find it depressing or pessimistic but there was almost something inevitable about it. Kylie mentioned herself on Friday that she'd had a bad start and never really got over it - she grew up in violence (I'm sure her father was abusive), she hung around with 'the wrong crowd' as a teenager, bore a child to a 'bad boy' and as much as she tried to get away, she kept being drawn back in leading to her having to kill somebody and finally, violence in the form of an old contactl/friend from her former life ended hers i just as she was about to try and get away to a better life again.
Hahaha if only Harry Hill was still on, he would have had a field day with that ! Jesus, instead of being heart wrenching emotional scenes I was thinking, shut up and die love lol ! I have expected her to remind David that the bins need taking out on a Thursday !
