Luton defender Tom Lockyer keen to move on after all clear following heart scare
Tom Lockyer has reflected on his day of “mixed emotions” after being given the all clear following his heart scare during Luton’s Sky Bet Championship play-off final win over Coventry last month. The 28-year-old defender fell to the floor early in the game and was subsequently taken to the Cleveland Clinic in London where he underwent an operation. Lockyer is now planning a holiday before preparing for the Hatters’ new Premier League campaign having been assured by medical staff that there is no reason why he should suffer a repeat of the problem. “I had an atrial fibrillation, which is basically the top part of my heart was beating four times faster than it should have been,” Lockyer told his club’s official website. “There’s not really any reason to say why that happened, but I’ve had the operation to fix it and it shouldn’t happen again. “I’ve been given the all clear, it is what it is and I just want to draw a line under it now and move on.” Lockyer said he had few recollections of the incident, other than an over-riding emotion of sadness when he realised he would be unable to play any further part in the Wembley clash. “It was a day of mixed emotions,” added Lockyer. “It was crazy. All week I’d been visualising walking up those steps to that trophy and to end it in a hospital bed is not quite what I had in mind. “I remember running backwards, and then I went really light-headed and my legs went really weak straight away. I remember stumbling back and then all I remember was (physio) Chris Phillips over the top of me, and he was saying, ‘Locks, you’re coming off’. “I’m just really thankful that the lads were able to get the job done and we were able to complete our goal of getting promoted. “It made those five days in hospital after a lot easier. I think if we had lost, those five days would have been horrendous, but they made it a lot smoother for me.”

Jennifer Coolidge harbours brutal intentions for one White Lotus character
Jennifer Coolidge has revealed what she'd like to happen to one White Lotus character if the decision was in her hands. Warning: Spoilers ahead. The actress played the iconic Tanya McQuoid in seasons one and two of the hit HBO series, before falling to her death (quite literally). Tanya's fate was revealed in the finale when she fell off a yacht and banged her head on a dinghy. She ultimately drowned in the Ionian Sea and fans were distraught. Well now, Coolidge has lifted the lid on what she's like to happen with Greg, her spiteful on-screen partner. "My hope for Jon [Gries] is that he’s not finished with Greg," Coolidge told a Variety 'Actors on Actors' conversation with actor Jeremy Allen White. "I hope there’s some comeuppance for evil Greg. I think he should, I don’t know, end up in a meat-grinding machine." Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter She went on to speak about her "horrible ending" as Tanya. "Mike [White Lotus creator] did tell me that I was going to have a horrible ending. But he said it more like, ‘I’m sorry, Jennifer, but you’re going to have to die,'” she candidly shared. While it was difficult for Coolidge to part ways with Tanya, she did acknowledge that "Mike was looking for a big Italian opera ending, and it was big and dramatic, so he wanted me to die for many reasons." Coolidge continued: "I also think Tanya’s a lot. Maybe people would get sick of her on another season. Maybe people would be like, ‘Oh, my God. Get rid of Tanya!'" "But if Tanya could come back in any form, maybe she could come back as a seagull and poke Greg’s eyes out." Have your say in our news democracy.
