In hugely dramatic scenes in Emmerdale tonight we will see Marlon Dingle (Mark Charnock) take a massive hit. April (Amelia Flanagan) discovers her father at home, barely aware after falling ill when he returns to get Rhona (Zoe Henry)’s engagement ring.
Spectators will see happiness and absolute horror for Marlon as the joy of his and Rhona’s joint marriage proposal with him is barely conscious and he fights for his life.
What happens to Marlon?
Out of the blue, Marlon has a life-changing blow. Mark Charnock described the scenes on Metro.co.uk.
‘There was no set-up, really. He sees himself in the mirror and his face is completely down on the right side.
“He collapsed and was really frozen, he can not really move. As you can imagine, he is covered in terror.”
When April finds him, Mark says ‘This is a really traumatic moment. It’s traumatic for him to see her like that. It’s awful for her, awful for him. He is completely incapable. ‘
Does Marlon die?
April’s quick action to call an ambulance may have saved Dad’s life, as he was rushed to hospital and had to undergo immediate surgery.
Emmerdale chef Laura Shaw said this is just the beginning of a storyline that will have an impact on the Dingles for the entire year and into next year.
The show is committed to explaining the sequel to Marlon’s hit in realistic detail, which Mark Charnock also confirmed.
“He will not get where he wants for a long time,” the actor says. ‘We’re just at the beginning of his journey.
“He can no longer work, he feels, wrong, that he can no longer be the father he wants, which is all to him, because of his inability.”
What causes a stroke?
Juliet Bouverie OBE, CEO of the Stroke Association, says: “Most of the things that cause a stroke are due to lifestyle factors – smoking, being overweight, being physically inactive, eating too much salt, all the things that make arteries clogging them is more likely to cause a blood clot or bleeding.
‘The single biggest risk factor is high blood pressure, so it’s always worth checking BP because it can be a silent killer. The other medical risk factor is an irregular heartbeat called atrial fibrillation.
‘Again, it’s important to get this checked, because if you have a stroke caused by AF, it can be a more serious and disabling stroke.
“So I think our biggest message is to adopt a healthy lifestyle, because these factors increase your risk of having a stroke and get your bp tested regularly.”
What are the symptoms of a stroke?
Juliet says, ‘Everyone should know the FAST acronym – face, arms, speech, time.
‘If you see a person’s face hanging, if they are unable to lift one or both of their arms, if their speech is impaired or they have difficulty getting their words out, chances are it’s a blow and a blow. a medical emergency and I would encourage anyone to fall on the side of caution and call 999 because it’s really important that you go to the hospital quickly. ‘
