The bidding has gone:

WEST      NORTH     EAST      SOUTH
---       4S        Pass      Pass
Dble      Pass      5S        Pass
5NT (1)   Pass      6H        Pass
?   (2)

(1) Do you agree with the 5NT call?
    If not, what call would you have made instead?

+++  under pressure double.  Can't see what the point to 5NT is.  Your
diamonds are stronger by tons and you protect CKx should you need to.  I Bid
6D's.  5NT I would take as slam forcing sniffing around for 7.

(2) What call do you make now?

+++  Magic hand CA, SA, HKQxxxx no diamond loser with pd??  Never happenes -
too many precise cards needed.  What would 4NT have been RKC ??  I barely
have an initial double, rubbish hearts, singleton spade, need CA from pd -
not to mind what meaning pd attached to 5NT and is bidding accordingly  ...
I pass.
