My azalea has become a wreck within just one week. I know Mildew, more or less, but the leaves here are mummified and as you can see the leaves are dead and gone partially. Does anyone know what it is please? It has happened so quickly that I do not want other plants catching it!! Sorry the first pic is a little blurred. Thanks RF

The obvious thought RF is that the mildew spores are spreading on the wind from your laurel bush that you posted on last week.
Your azalea already looks to have yellowing leaves, which may have made it more vulnerable.
I would be inclined to spray the 9 parts water/1 part milk solution (that I mentioned previously) onto the leaves, but also give the roots a dose of sequestered iron to build up the plant's own defences.
