I thought that Val's death was very well done, with some very witty dialogue which really caught the essence of her character, and I loved the "Final Destination" shard of glass ending, the filming technique with the car boot slamming was great!

Her final scenes with Eric were rather moving, it was a nice ending to their story. She was one of the best characters in Emmerdale, a genuinely funny woman who delivered some great lines. She will be missed.

I'm just beginning to realise how much I'll miss Val. She was always there to lighten up the mood with her comments and I've particularly enjoyed watching her in the months leading up to her exit. Kerry and Bernice need to step up now. Also we need Nicola back. Val has left a gaping hole in ED and I'm sad the actress decided to leave as there's no way she was ever getting axed. I don't know what they're going to do with Eric now.
