A newly-married bride saw her father die of a heart attack as he stood up to make his wedding speech - just hours after he walked her down the aisle.
Alan Bates, 65, had spent the day with family and friends celebrating the marriage of his daughter Charlotte and husband Steve Galbraith, and rose to address guests at Craiglands Hotel in Ilkley, West Yorkshire, when he collapsed.
Charlotte Galbraith, 36, was ushered from the room as friends who included an off-duty firefighter and an NHS worker fought to save her father's life until ambulances arrived.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
