I grew up with the Star Wars movies and loved them - hope she's okay . . . . .

Jesus!!! someone wrap up Sir David Attenborough.

Sad times, hope she is OK.

Sounds really bad

Ouch

Hades · 23 Dec 2016 at 21:53

I have a bad feeling about this Chewey

Guerrilla · 23 Dec 2016 at 21:55

Hopefully she'll be ok

Paramedic on board which massively improves her chances of survival, could have happened in a much worse place/time so fingers crossed, having said that with it being a transatlantic flight.. could have been only a few hours in

The plane appears to have landed at its destination, so either she had the attack shortly before landing or it was a small one or there's little hope and they're just going through the motions.

Here's hoping the best for her.

I new Hope she pulls through, 60 is no age at all these days. Anyhoo...

The odds of a full recovery are still horribly low, though, because CPR is basically rubbish (just better than nothing). No idea what equipment they have on board planes, though.

You don't get a small cardiac arrest. Assuming the writers aren't idiots who've confused heart attacks with cardiac arrests.

The big ones are pretty well equipped.

Hope she is OK. :/

Long haul International flights general have Defibrillators, short haul airlines are starting to get them now.

In some way it could be better to have an incidence on a plane and get immediate attention with a doctor and nurse if the report is correct, than say she had one where she was alone.

Hope she pulls through.

She's certainly had her fair share of fun throughout her life, can't have been good on her health.

antijoke · 23 Dec 2016 at 22:11

Noooooooo.

Hope she pulls through OK.

You wonder how all those rockstars still kicking despite taking hard drugs for 40+ years.

Never tell me the odds

HoneyBadger · 23 Dec 2016 at 22:22

Wow, contender for first celebrity death 2017?!

Hope she recovers

Jeps · 23 Dec 2016 at 22:26

I really hope she is ok. 60 is no age to go! 2016 has been a rough year for celebs

shankly1985 · 23 Dec 2016 at 22:27

Hope a fast recovery

lucky enough the plane was 15mins away from landing in LA and had medical staff on plane.
