On the frequency with which Alan Dale suffers heart problems on screen

Thursday, November 1st, 2007

Hello everyone. I’ve been busy, and have various exciting plans for the website in new year. Watch out for the exciting new ‘Neighbours Blog’. In slightly Neighbours related news, I was sorry to see this week that Jim Robinson (aka Alan Dale) suffered his third fictionalised heart attack, collapsing in Ugly Betty last week. He gets better every time. Helen coming back to find him lying on the kitchen floor provided a seminal moment in Neighbours history; the highly dramatic collapse into the pool in the O.C. was a piece of polished chest-clutching; and this final fall provided a moment of comedy genius. Is at least a heart murmur written into his contract now?
