by South. Not vulnerable, I would be inclined to make a negative double with West's holding.
Now, while South's diamond bid fills the weak spot in North's hand, he should not respond with a no trump-the better bid is a onc-over-one forcing heart bid. His hand is not particularly adapted to the play of no trump as it has no tenace positions.
In response to the one heart two bid, South should jump to no trump. This is a forcing bid. North would now be justified in jumping to four no trump, South's best constructive bid would be five clubs and North would carry the contract to six no trump.
The Play
West's opening lead, of course, is the quder of spades. A small spade is played from dummy and you will see that East is squeezed. He cannot discard a heart or a club, as to do so would make the extra card in that suit good in declarer's hand, and this
