Steven Berkoff is a compelling, forceful and powerful stage presence. This ad, endeavouring to show us what it feels like to have a heart attack, seemed to me to be a good use of of his talents, but one wonders if he could easily have done the job in 30 seconds. Or less. Mind you, being shown only once in the Midsomer Murder repeat says rather more about the state of our ITV than the state of the nation's tickers. I'm just a little unclear about what the ad is asking me to do, other than ring 999 if I happen to have a heart attack. Which, I can assure you, I'll be doing. I think I'll also be going for a run later.
