John Bardon - Jim Branning went off in an ambulance. Poor love.

Saddest exit in a soap for a long time

[sara3]

agreed.

Very sad, but after his real life stroke, I think they dragged his return to EE out too long. It can't have been nice for any relatives to see this displayed on TV when they may be caring for him in real life.

I don't like this!..........he has had a stroke in real life!........so hard to deal with for him and his family!........Do not understand why they did this!.........

[puternut]

Maybe HE wanted to try it?? and family were trying to please him.

Sad end I agree [and I believe he will soon be 'killed off ' too]

[sara3]

anyone would think they'd dragged him back in his wheelchair, to do this against his will!

I'm sure he/ this storyline has been treated with the greatest sensitivity and that he would have wanted to do it. I admire him for doing it, even though it broke my heart as my ex-husband suffered a massive stroke when he was just 33.

Did anyone notice he got taken away in an 'Emergency Ambulance'?, it would have been hospital transport in real life.
I also agree with Puternut, he prob wanted to give it a go.
