[align=center]No blaze of glory for Eastenders' Dr May
Kevin O'Sullivan
22/06/2008[/align]
After mad May's explosive attempt to abduct EastEnders baby Summer, the Millers' hovel is ablaze. Mickey, Dawn and the kid are trapped in the inferno. So what do Albert Square's Cockney rabble do? They call the police and an ambulance. The fire brigade might have been a slightly better idea. But that would have ruined the barrel-scraping scriptwriters' ridiculous stretching out of their nail-biting cliffhanger. And robbed us of some fine examples of extreme over-acting.
Top honours go to Amanda Drew, whose OTT guttural sobbing turned manic May into a comical, rather than frightening character. But a sterling effort from second-placed Kara Tointon who, as desperate Dawn, wept and wailed for Britain. And a final special trophy for unrealistic shouting to the guy who plays Jase. Well done everyone!

As word went round that the deranged doctor was back in Walford, mortified Mickey cried: "May's after Summer." No it's not. Then, following a spot of Jack Nicholson-style door cleaving, May turned on the gas oven, lit a cigarette and dramatically blew up TV's shabbiest house. Sparking a marked improvement in the look of the place.
Tragically, May perished in the flames. Meanwhile the traumatised trio cowered upstairs - mysteriously reluctant to climb out of the window and brave a less-than-lethal 10ft drop to the ground. What a load of tosh!

That guy is spot on! LOL! How the upstairs didn't blow to smithereens as well as the neighbor's attached houses is beyond me......Also, my sisters and I used to sneak out of the house at night at about that height by hanging and dropping to the ground, though we had grass to cushion the fall. I would have definitely climbed out of that window. Still, I did enjoy it....LOL!
