Viburnum disease help

I have two standard viburnums, one either side of the front door. Both of them were lovely but all of a sudden one is decidedly sick. Both have been treated the same, bought from the same place at the same time...yet as you will be able to see from the pictures one is still thriving and the other....
Any ideas what has caused this? There are no visible bugs so I presume it is some sort of virus? i have cut all the brown flowers off and the worst affected leaves are starting to fall off, will it rejuvenate or is there something I can give it or spray it with?

No we don't use sprays or chemicals in the garden unless we really need to. Hopefully it will recover.
Fungal or bacterial infection - viburnums are susceptible to several. Try spraying with a general fungicide like Bayer Fungus Fighter or Westland Plant Rescue.
