Don't remember this been done on Corrie before, has it on the other soaps anyone?”
I thought it was interesting too. As, I was thinking 'Oh God, not sure I could lay in that coffin like that' - well after I'd finished sobbing my way through the episode


I was thinking that.
Here is Jack's whole interview for anyone who wants it
Would love to hear Paula's opinions on it all but sadly she doesn't seem to have done many interviews on her exit
I don't remember it on any other soap but my memory is shocking.

Agree about David though!! My Dad's death was perfectly natural at aged 83, but you must never ever get over something like Kylie's passing!!

Yes. I think it's certainly a very different situation, in David's case. I wouldn't want that image of a loved one so I don't think I could ever go visit the body but David already has the horrific image of Kylie dying in his arms anyway

He really is playing a blinder with this - but I've always thought he was great - he is actually breaking my heart

SULLA, I loves ya but I'm sure David's exact words were 'I'm sorry'
