Yeah, but that's not why I thought it was bad. If it was Demi dying and having visions of Leo I'd have had the same response. It was done badly -- it was cheesy. There are good ways to have a death scene, and that wasn't one of them.Quote:

Heavy or unsubtle writing. Where it's the equivalent of having anvil dropped on you -- bludgeoning you over the head with the deeper meaning, and the parallels and the tragedy because apparently the viewer isn't intelligent enough to get that 14 is too young to die, so we need dialogue shoved in to inform us of this fact.Quote:

Omg!That was sadder than I thought!I'm still crying. :crying:
It was really touching,especially when Trisha told Ray she was leaving him and taking Leo.
Just after the doctor said,"Fourteen,what a waste." the doorball rang,it was someone seling kitchens,I could've killed them! :angry:
I bet!!
Yeah, that bit was really emotional.Quote:

I dont think ive cried that much since Tiffany died, that was awful, dead proud of the writers from that episode and of Demi, Leo, Leo's mum, Keith and Rosy. They acted fantastically, that was just so sad, i nearly had to switch over. Find it really hard to watch drug related deaths, its to close to home. But it was a fab ep
I notice Sarah Phelps wrote that espisode and she is always good :)

i was like :eek: :o what?! lol! why did she tell dennis though?
iv never cryed so much! i started to cry when demi did and was calling for help and, well, i couldnt stop after that:crying: ! it was all just so sad! this was a fabulous episoide! i loved it, well apart from leo dieing and to me it didnt seem as if the doctor really cared. anyways i just no i will cry again at his funeral -if he has one that is i dont no i just guessed!- everyones acting was brilliant! they're all wonderful!!!
Hayzie I hope Dennis asks to see all the paper work to prove Chrissie is the sole owner of the Vic...Quote:

It was okay I suppose I really felt sorry for Leo's mum!
That was one of the most emotional episodes I have seen, great acting from all involved.
Yeap, I agree with you :)
Yea every mothers night mare !!!! Being a mom myself I can only imagine what it is like to loose a child !!! But I agree with u Trisha did a bang up job and so did Keith and Rosie (we have seen what she can do so she kept it up )Quote:

We can hope.. but the EE writers have to give him something to work with before we can see another side of him..If he has a "soul" he will change.. cos his wife is gonna leave him he just lost his son ( only child ?? )Quote:

Must admit I wasn't really looking forward to this storyline as I'm not a fan of the Millers, but I thought the last 2 episodes were really powerful and emotional and, at times quite harrowing. I had tears in my eyes last night.
Only thing I would query - would Demi know what to do with heroin? You saw her getting tinfoil and a lighter - I wouldn't know how to do it "properly".
Maybe cos Papa Miller watched so many of those documentaries and she picked up on how to do it ?:searchme: ??Or she saw how it was done on the estate ???:searchme:Quote:

And well done to all the actor/tresses involved they all did superb!
I liked tonight's episode, and actually thought Leo's little flashback was good, it was sweet, made me cry :crying:
the only bit i did not like, was when the doctor gave up of him like he couldn't be bothered! i think leo still had every chance of living and what should have happened is, they started using the breathing thing and then the doctor says 'we gonna lose him, switch off the life machine' instead of whatever he said.
The doctor can't care -- if the doctors have a personal involvement with every drugged up kids that comes through the doors they'd end up on drugs themselves. Leo was flatlined, he wasn't breathing on his own before that anyway, and they did their best to revive him.Quote:

My daughter in law is an A&E nurse/sister she says if some one can not be revived then it has to be mutal agreement to stop.. plus the brain was no longer recieving oxygen..Leo could have suffered irrepairable brain damage due to his brain being starved from oxygen.. so the doctor has to remain unattached or he will become as nuts as some of the parents in the waiting room,, If you are allowed to spend the day observing what goes on in A&E you all would know there are some cases that can be saved and others that can not,, its just how life is,, unfair ...:crying:Quote:

Yeah i enjoyed that eppy to :thumbsup:
That ring well nice :D
I quite liked Naomi on a first impression basis -- seems relatively normal, and was quite naturally introduced.
Very glad we only heard about Ian's little adventure at the hospital - was not looking forward to that, but it was quite amusing.
i was a bit worried about how much we were going to see, phew!Quote:

How many rings has Sharon got now :eek:
I hope they do something decent with this Naomi we shall soon see!
I didn't know she was coming in tonight I thought it was later on in the week. It's a new blank canvas so let's see what they do with her. She looks nice and bubbly so good first impressions so far but I haven't really seen enough of her to judge.
Tonight I really felt sorry for Dot and Leo's Mum.
Lovin' Dot as per usual :D June Brown is the best actress in any soap by miles :)
