That is exactly what dh said! Have to say a huge disappointment compared to Waking The Dead. Don't think I'll bother next week.

Oh, it wasn't too bad. Fairly predictable though.

What a load of old rubbish. It annoyed the hell out of me.

It was total rubbish, and in fact was just BORING. DH and I talked through most of it.

Glad it's not just us! Pile of rubbish. Shame, as I really liked her character in Waking the Dead...

I switched off and watched the bake off prog that was on whilst I watched Holby. Didn't appeal at all after about 15 mins.

It was utter crap, very disappointed as liked her in Waking The Dead. Her voice over bits were making me cringe!

Yep, we started to watch it. About 1/4 of an hour through, when we'd both made a few frowny faces, I said "is it just me or is this really dull?"

The relief on my DP's face was immense. We watched David Blaine be a smarmy creep-ball on E4 instead.

You see, I didn't even notice the voice over bits, that's how engaged I was!
Maybe I had had too much Wine.

I enjoyed it! I didn't hear the voice over bits though.

Oh well, I've always danced to my own tune.

Not as good as Doc Marten though Grin

Oh, God. I am horribly addicted to Doc Martin Blush

Is it bad to be addicted to Doc Marten? Is it on a par with owning a toilet brush?

Report
TobyLeWolef · 14/09/2011 13:44

Hmmm. I don't own a toilet brush, so perhaps not.

However, in my circle of friends/colleagues/family, Doc Martin is seen as the equivalent of Heartbeat or some such, in terms of uncool old-lady programmes.

I watched it last night because I was waiting for the washing machine to finish.

No storyline to speak of, kept waiting for it to turn a corner.

Won't bother next week TBH.

Really disappointed as I usually love these types of programmes. The acting was poor, script was even worse and I can barely remember the characters they made so little an impression. Will not bother next week.

P.s. Is there some kind of by one get one free offer on ex Hollyoaks actors at the moment? Saw on the trailer for next episode that they've got another one making an appearance. Talk about scraping the barrel...

I thought it was terrible.

One policeman working the whole case? The scientist girl just going along to the hospital and them just accepting her with open arms.

Also, surely the labs would have to be a bit more organised than that to be able to safeguard evidence from contamination?

It was as if they though Keith Allen and a bit of gore could carry it along.

Terrible acting and very predictable and totally unrealistic. I lasted about 20 mins. What a shame as I loved waking the dead.

Expected more from Keith Allen tbh,bring back 'Bodies' he was fab in that.
Will not be watching it next week!
