I was told by a Fire and Rescue worker that one of the main causes of death in head on crashes is damage to internal organs and bleeding in the brain, cause by the jolt of the collision. If that is the case with Heath it is unlikely that Cathy and Angel would have escaped without more serious injury. Frequently the engine is pushed back into the footwell of the car, causing damage to the legs of the driver and passenger and often trapping them from being able to exit the car. The steering wheel can also be pushed back trapping and causing chest injuries to the driver. None of these things happened here, making it even more puzzling that Heath suffered such an extreme fate.

Seemingly showing no concern for Heath? - Shock?

One would almost suspect that none of them were in a car that crashed.

Was there any sign of the airbags being deployed???

I am a bit worried about Charity.

Bob should not let Cathy speak at the funeral. She is a loose cannon

Did Lydiot really think that Kim meant to kill Craig?

zaks dirty kecks brought lydia and kim together with kim cleaning the dingle villa

Hard to see but it did not look like it.

Heath had a very nasty gash on his head, hard to see how that happened with his seat belt on. Modern cars have laminated windscreen which I do not think shatter like older one did.

Brenda seems very forgiving of Cathy, I do not remember her reproaching Cathy once, for taking the car in the first place.
