  • sit on the lap of the character of your choice. (I think you'll find Kevins is already taken). Grin
  • get a home visit. (Almost guaranteed whatever your ailment)
  • have Jimmi, Heston or practically anyone else provide free detective work.

...or you could just wait around to be screamed at by Gobby.

How can you resist? Grin

To explain to any newbies , this is a very friendly thread that welcomes any fans of the afternoon soap called 'Doctors'.

I'll post the list of commonly used acronyms in a minute but they aren't compulsory, honest!

I missed out KevinShock- I'll put him 4th- haven't liked this latest storyline- all a bit forced. And his new 'family' are as wooden as a forest.

Raahh · 15/01/2013 13:47

Mrs T!

oh dear- the tour guide is going to annoy meGrin

Raahh · 15/01/2013 13:54

Jimmi and Rect-al are getting a bit pally.

I think Mr Johnson has the right idea- going the wrong way.

'Grrrrrouuppp'
Love Mrs T.Grin

and the Morris dancers carried on!!

God that was the worst episode I have ever seen - is Doctors the BBC training ground for writers and directors?

Sparklingbrook · 15/01/2013 19:20

Shall I give today's a miss. Mum dropped in and I had to turn it off. She said 'Was that Doctors? Is that still going?' i said 'Oooh I have no idea Mum' Blush

MsNobodyAgain · 15/01/2013 19:29

I'd give it a miss Sparkling. The only thing that happened was that a guy turned up at the house FOD is minding. He turned out to be the couples son. He is going to help Mandy look after the animals in exchange for some of the money she is being paid.

Harlot Yes, I believe you've hit the nail on the head there Grin

Missed yesterday's but today's was awful even by their standards.

Sparklingbrook · 15/01/2013 20:12

I have started to wish Gobbyplod's kids were back. Come back Immie all is forgiven, Shock And the brother whose name I can't remember. When I first started watching Doctors he was sleeping with Zara. Shock

Sparklingbrook · 15/01/2013 20:13

Jack!

toldmywrath · 15/01/2013 21:09

Haha Sparkling you are a Doctors denier.(deny-er is that even a word?)
I can't even remember what yesterday's was about!
Ruth-couldn't stand her either, she had fat calves & dropped her aitches.

Sparklingbrook · 15/01/2013 21:16

I know told, it's awful isn't it? lying to my own Mother. Sad

toldmywrath · 15/01/2013 22:05

Lying to her for her own good-protecting her from the fact that you are a Doctorsaddict Sparkling!

AnneEyhtMeyer · 15/01/2013 22:22

I don't admit to anyone that I watch Doctors outside of this thread. This is my confessional. You lot are my support group.

Today's was absolute crap. Loads of extras, and one "patient", and the only "health care professional" they got close to was a retired paramedic!

I liked Mrs T's coat though.

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 15/01/2013 22:53

I admitted watching it to my closest group of friends yesteday. We have no secrets. Turned out one of them watches it too. Someone else confessed to Jeremy Kyle.

Today was SHITE. Mrs T is annoying when she goes into bossyboot mode, although that bloke certaily deserved it. As for the diabetes storyline, saw that coming with the constant snacking, but no way does anyone's blood sugar plummet that suddenly when they've been munching biscuits all afternoon, DH is diabetic and it's a lot more gradual than that, he has never had convulsions either, that is one of the worst portrayals of diabetes I have ever seen, makes me quite cross really, it does real diabetics no favours. At least they didn't start yelling for insulin......

Still enjoying the banter with Jimmi and Rect-al. Mandy's storyline is one big yawn.

Sparklingbrook · 16/01/2013 07:00

I hope Mandy gets attacked by a giant man eating Guinea pig today. Grin

YY to protecting my Mother from the horrible truth told.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 16/01/2013 07:58

I was hoping the returned son had just escaped from prison and is about to go on a murdering spree. First victim Mandy, and then 6tl when she comes looking for Mandy.

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 16/01/2013 09:56

That would have been a good story, they should have saved that brother from last week for it, got away with armed robbery and re-appeared at a secluded country house, baseball bat in hand.

HarlotOTara · 16/01/2013 12:22

I watch on iPlayer when I get home from work and noone (hear that kids?)
is allowed to interrupt or they get the glare! I tell no one outside of my immedaite family I watch this load of shite - for a real treat I sometimes save them up and have a 2.5 hour love fest. I have a soft spot for Heston and think Daniel would be better looking if his nose was longer. The big question however, is why are the nurses so bloody irritating? The new male one is ok but the rest have been total pants. Can anyone remember the nurse who was raped by Mac's son? I think she might have gone blind eventually - not connected I believe but it was back in the dark ages. Michelle got on my nerves but Mandy really takes the Biscuit. Please let her be eaten by all the animals.

Dinglebert · 16/01/2013 12:26

Is this still going? I had a mild addiction when we first had DC1 11 years ago. We realised we were all addicted in my babygroup when we discovered most people were making feeble excuses not to meet up at that time [sad people]

Dinglebert · 16/01/2013 12:27

Harlot how do you stop your children from telling people of your shameful habit? Mine blab about mine all the time Blush

Sparklingbrook · 16/01/2013 12:30

The DC get to watch it with me if they are off sick from school. What a treat. Grin I hope they haven't told anyone. Blush

DS2 did go to his mate's house and tell his Mum to get on Mumsnet as his Mum is on it and her nickname is Sparklingbrook though. Hmm

HarlotOTara · 16/01/2013 13:30

Dingle mine are teensagers so would prefer I didn't exist as far as their friends and others are concerned. Anyway DD2 watches Pobol y Cwm which is even more shameful (and no we don't live in Wales)

Sparklingbrook · 16/01/2013 13:33

Just warming the telly up in time for depressing snowy forecast. Sad
