David rushing around and getting worked up and then having a Heart Attack was so well done. Really realistic and played well by Michael French. I'd go as far as saying that's one of the most realistic Heart Attack scenes in soap that I have seen.

It was well done. Very atmospheric, and the shots of Carole clock watching in the back of the Fiat Punto (and realising David wasn't coming) added to the scene.

Indeed. Her actions spoke a thousand words I thought.

The way he fell about the garden and dropped into the bush was good.

It was very intense, very full of atmosphere.... the close ups on Carol especially, it was all brilliant.

Might sound crazy, but it reminded me of The Godfather when Don Corleone collapses!

It was great how Morgan dropped the groom and bride ornament and then broke off the groom!

I was willing him to get as far as the street so that Carol could see him

O/T But my heart stopped when Billy looked up and Honey and the kids were standing there.

I thought it was symbolic that once again Carol and David are separated by another bush.

I totally agree!

A lot of tv heart attacks are quite staged and false but this looked REAL, he was sweating and his face had gone a funny blue-grey colour.

Michael did a much much better job than Jamie Foreman did when Derek had his heart attack!

Michael and Lindsey were both excellent, I was so stressed watching poor David willing him to make it out the gardens so she would see him, cant wait for the next episode.

I agree. I liked Derek but I think his Heart Attack wasn't so realistic.

The last good one I remember was When Roy was shouting at pat and he had a heart attack and died

I feel sorry for the bush
I mean he just willingly threw himself at it without so much as a warning. Disgusting
With all the environmental warnings we are given and then that kind of cruelty to a bush.
I think it's sick, personally
