I was very impressed by Matthew last night, I thought he played David's distress over Alicia being shot very convincingly. I'm glad he's been given some decent material to get his teeth into.

Matthew is a great actor. He does comedy and dramatic scenes so well.

David's love for Alicia really shone last night. He's well acted. I hope he and Alicia get together.

Same goes for Ruby. I thought she was very good last night too trying to calm the situation when Alicia got accidently shot and trying to keep Alicia comfortable. I like Ruby's character she comes across as caring and considerate.
She and Ali are definitely not suited.

David is one of the most likable soap actors, he just seems so genuinely warm and friendly, he annoys me sometimes with his dithering but deep down he just doesn't want to hurt anyone.

he backed himself in to a corner with pushy preya, I want him back with Alicia. They made a nice little family and its nice to have stable couples, it doesn't have to be affairs and grief all the time.

Matthew Wolfenden played a blinder last night and I'm so pleased he was given the chance to prove he can do drama just as well as he can do comedy

Yes, David was good. Last night did show how much he loves Alicia in my opinion. It said a lot when he never looked back at Priya when leaving the pub and actually went to the hospital with Alicia. Dom was already in the ambulance, so David could have waited behind for Priya, but he didn't

He was really good last night, as were most of the main actors . The only part about David I found strange last night is the fact that the police let him go in the ambulance with Alicia. He was the only person they had at that point that could tell them what was happening in the pub and what state Cameron was in and what weapon he had. There is no way in real life he would be let leave the scene until they had all that information from him.

Bit weird though how the police kept shouting "Are you armed?!" when David came out with Alicia in his arms. How would he shoot a gun with his hands full, and even if he was armed.. he wouldn't just go "Oh dear, yes I am armed. You caught me! "

The guy can't do comedy. The guy can't do serious. Can do a poor man's David Beckham poorly.

I thought that...maybe its standard procedure for those leaving an armed siege just to cover themselves.

They would have to make sure that it wasn't Cameron coming out using Alicia as cover and willing to shoot his way out if he had to.

That is exactly what my boyfriend said last night, near enough word for word!

Remember how dark and how much rain there was. They didn't even know it was David and Alisha until they got close.

I thought he was very good also, another underrated Emmerdale actor.

Agreed.

Always liked David; his mighty fine looks are an added bonus.

Maybe, I guess Cameron could have used David and Alicia as a shield while he escaped.

Great minds think alike!

Remember how dark and how much rain there was. They didn't even know it was David and Alisha until they got close.
I was a bit surprised actually that no one went "Omg, is that Priya?! " considering it was David looking distraught, carrying an injured woman in his arms.
