gcreptile 10,978 Posted January 4, 2018 Yes, without the make-up, she's starting to look frightening. She knows how to keep up a facade well enough to fool herself (which is why that esoteric mumbo-jumbo works for some - placebo effect). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,228 Posted January 4, 2018 Her eyes looks very baggy. I think she starting to get much more tired now. Imo, she still has about 2 months left or so. But I don't think she'll see 2019 by the looks of that... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deathbysnoosnoo 28 Posted January 4, 2018 What stage of grief/bad news is acceptance? The last one? She still seemed in denial with the 'not my last Xmas' interview but this kinda came accross as yep I'm done now but going with my head up. Then it kinda dawned it's probally just to sell tickets Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean 6,330 Posted January 4, 2018 The eyes and the sunken cheeks are hard to watch now and I say that as someone who has seen some harrowing sights today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,330 Posted January 4, 2018 If she had just had a heart attack or stroke and died instantly she would still have got all the major obits from UK news sites. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I said, when I first heard about her illness (before I posted it on the forums for the Mail to spot ), I mentioned her name to the wife, and her response was immediately "Oh yeah, her!" in a sad voice without prompting as to who it was. So yeah, name value with non-deadpoolers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,330 Posted January 5, 2018 Rumours in the press that she could return to Emerald.Seems to only be fuelled by Zoe's nephew returning to the soap.I would be astounded if she comes back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,476 Posted January 5, 2018 Right, correct me if I'm wrong, but don't soaps have a habit of recasting characters? Because their soap insider says "Zoe could always return", not Leah, who will have a bit of problem returning before too long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,476 Posted January 5, 2018 He wasn't on the list (as no one really predicts an out of the blue heart attack in a 67 year old on holiday in Spain) but it reminds me vaguely that in 2007, some of the press ran "Frank Butcher returning to Eastenders?" stories about a fortnight before Mike Reid died.

the_engineer 1,415 Posted January 5, 2018 Find this all a bit fishy .Holding an event and now linked with return to emmerdale? Get her in the spotlight (with talks of a return to emmerdale) and sell as many tickets as possible for this event as one last financial windfall? The money she raised for the gofundme I mean did she go to germany? She's blown some of it on pot and witch doctors that's for sure .She'll probably get a few grand in ticket sales from this event before dying. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
