990 replies

MsNobodyAgain · 22/09/2012 22:01

Welcome one and all to the fan club of the afternoon soap 'Doctors'.

For any newcomers , explanations as follows:

TBFE: The Bloke From Emmerdale (Ian Kelsey who plays Howard)

SDTP: Saddo Doctors Thread Partakers (which we all think know we are but we love it anyway).

Waterfall cardi: Apparently these are a MN no-no but it's a wardrobe essential to a SDTP.

Gobbyplods: Karen and Rob Hollins, aka 'the only plod in the village'

Beanbags: are now being Freecycled and will be passed on to other lentil weavers.

Biscuit- Cherry's massive hair in the 'dream sequence' looked like she'd had an electric shockGrin

MsNobodyAgain · 06/10/2012 11:34

We can only live in hope Grin

Caught up. Haven't a clue. When do we get to slap Cherry?

toldmywrath · 06/10/2012 17:40

cherry used to be so happy & bubbly-a complete personality change. Perhaps a tragic accident would sort her out Biscuit ! I wondered about 6tl's husband too.

MsNobodyAgain · 06/10/2012 19:07

Ood there is a loooooooooooong queue to slap Princess Bubblegum. No jostling there at the back please. Wait your turn. Smile

TheAngelshavetheOod · 06/10/2012 19:17

But when do we start?

MsNobodyAgain · 06/10/2012 19:24

Monday is good for me Grin

You're on!

Sparklingbrook · 06/10/2012 19:29

You know on other soaps when the writers say the character ran it's course, and they didn't have anything left for them storywise? That doesn't seem to bother them on Doctors does it? Grin

TheAngelshavetheOod · 06/10/2012 19:33

Think they must work the opposite. Most of theirs have run their course

dRaahhcula · 06/10/2012 19:34

No, Sparkling, and even if they do write them out, they will probably re-appear in the near future several time, as different characters. Because no-one will notice Grin

Sparklingbrook · 06/10/2012 19:35

I think Mandy is a prime example, I think Cherry could go off for a year long sabbatical or something.

There isn't a lot left for Daniel at the moment either. Or Heston.

TheAngelshavetheOod · 06/10/2012 19:36

Or Gobby Or PC Gobby now there's more police in the village.

MsNobodyAgain · 06/10/2012 19:39

I like your attitude Ood. Grin

Raahh and Sparkling Grin also. I never notice or recognise any pre-used characters. I blame the wine kids. I have a brain cell somewhere. It's lonely Sad

There isn't much for any of them to do. Despite losing half their staff.

Please lose Jas. PLEASE.

TheAngelshavetheOod · 06/10/2012 19:42

I'd already forgotten Jas Blush

MsNobodyAgain · 06/10/2012 19:44

Mandy has got to go before Jas. She's HORRIBLE, blueeeeergh! That FOD. And she's whiny. And she knew Freya who? for all of 2 minutes and acts like she lost the love of her life.

:note to self - it isn't real, and remember to breathe:

BiscuitNibbler · 06/10/2012 23:25

Sparkling - of course there is scope for Heston's character. He's going to marry Mrs T! I've got a hat ready and everything! And Daniel will have storylines once Zara is back.

Mandy's voice is irritating beyond endurance.

Jas would have been a good victim for Harrison. Why did he have to die so soon when there are so many characters worthy of being done in? Will nobody think of the viewers??

Raah - love your Hallowe'en nickname! Best I've seen! Agree about Cherry's dream-sequence hair! She looked like the Bride of Frankenstein.

dRaahhcula · 06/10/2012 23:36

Thanks biscuit- I've been nosfeRaahhtu for the last few years, so i'm going with a change.

Heston is going to be left spurned by the big-boobed harlot, Emma runs out of posh names for norks Grin

I would have liked Harrison to eat Jas. With a nice chianti.

MakesCakesWhenStressed · 07/10/2012 10:17

I need a hallowe'en name...

Is it just me or are the nurses always really irritating? Remember that awful one before annoying Brummie Michelle. What was she called? Faith! That's it. ugh. Why do noone of the nurses have any gumption?

MsNobodyAgain · 07/10/2012 10:45

I CBA doing a Halloween name change. Plus it throws out the colour coding on this thread which would irritate some people (that's my excuse anyway).

I don't remember Faith but I remember Brummie Michelle. She was irritating beyond belief. I kind of liked it when Ruth stalked her though Grin

MakesCakesWhenStressed · 07/10/2012 11:11

Wow. Am I the most hardcore sdtp then?

MsNobodyAgain · 07/10/2012 11:22

I doubt I'd even be entitled to a bronze. I have watched Doctors for 8 years but I seem to have lost the first 3 somehow I blame the children

OP posts:
Sparklingbrook · 07/10/2012 11:57

I don't know how long I have watched. I started when Cherry was in some sort of relationship with a druggie? When was that?

2plus2 · 07/10/2012 12:22

Sorry it's been one of those weeks so I'm only in Tuesday episode but is the new doctor howards wife or ex wife or is doctors making me more confused than I need to be Sad
