Shock

This is a thread for all fans of the weekday soap Doctors, BBC1, 1.45pm. However, it's taking its annual break from 21st June until it returns on 22nd July.

Therefore, us fans are waiting patiently in the virtual waiting room.

  • Mrs T is rearrrrrrrrrrranging the leaflets
  • Zaniel are getting frisky in the cupboard (again)
  • Al is spying on Jas eating her lunch (disclaimer: he may fancy the lunch more than Jas)

So regulars please sign in and take a seat. Newbies very welcome indeed as we plan to keep the thread going by talking drivel throughout the break. 'Tis fun Grin

Oooh just found iplayer on sky (we don't have sky so had no idea) now I can watch in normal size :)

cinnamongreyhound · 27/07/2013 19:35

And in HD it would seem Grin

Glasses based fun here today too, woke up to feed ds at 4am pick up glasses and they make an ominous click, side is all wobbly which means the spring has gone. Thankfully I got them just before maternity leave and I work as an optician ! had to go for a hunt for my spares though.

MsNobodyAgain · 28/07/2013 08:39

curly my glasses breaking is my worst nightmare. I've needed glasses since I was 5 and I am lost without them. Not keen on having to swap specs to read now but age has caught up with me.

cinnamon must have been a tv lovers house. I have Sky but no HD or catch up tv.

Ended up not taking DS2 to docs as he seemed a lot better, eating, drinking enough, temp down a bit. It was 38.5 this morning but is nearly normal after calpol.

If only I lived in Letherbridge, I could get a reassuring home visit (anyone except creepy Al will do).

I really enjoyed Fridays episode Grin

Glad your ds is better!

AnneEyhtMeyer · 28/07/2013 12:51

I wouldn't want Jimmi visiting me at home either. Unless he brought his duster.

Glad you DS is on the mend, MsN.

We have Sky HD and the little On Demand box attachment which lets us watch catch up tv. It is brilliant. We are tv obsessives lovers in this house.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 28/07/2013 17:58

Just watched Friday's. Nice to see Madge again. She's looking good for someone who died over ten years ago.

Raahh · 28/07/2013 18:59

Good news about ds, MsN.

It has been a very, very wet day. We walked into the village, and dd2 and i nearly drowned coming back. And dh wanted a BBQGrin

Spoilers look ok- but I'm bored of the stalking story. it would help if I actually cared about Jizz.

I've had glasses since I was 10, and can't see without them. I can't hear properly when I take them off, eitherGrin

Virgin has an integrated on demand/catch up i-player thingy. It's the only good thing about it.Grin
although dh usually downloads stuff onto the media player when we need them, I don't ask questions Grin

curlyclaz13 · 28/07/2013 23:05

Raahh I can't hear without my glasses either Grin I specifically have contact lenses for going to the hairdressers so I can see what they are doing and hear them talking to me.

Raahh · 29/07/2013 10:29

curly- I used to be the same at the hairdressersGrin. Now I just don't bother getting it cut. I hate hairdressers anyway, even if i could see what was going on, they never do what I want. And no, I dont want it straightening, thanks, so deal with it Grin

MsNobodyAgain · 29/07/2013 12:21

I go to the hairdressers and they tell me I have fine hair.

I go to the opticians and they tell me I have a small head. Hmm

I go to the jewellers and they tell me I have tiny wrists.

If this carries on, I may disappear in a puff of smoke. I'm so small and fine! Pfffft. ignores baby belly Grin

I hope that rain has passed. I lost my Sky connection for 10 minutes earlier. It better not happen during Doctors.

curlyclaz13 · 29/07/2013 13:44

I get told I have weird hair at the hairdressers as it is really curly (see where my name comes from ?!) but fine and I also don't want it straightened I like it curly.
if I didn't work in an opticians they would tell me I have a big head !

curlyclaz13 · 29/07/2013 13:46

she wanted to say no. whoever she is !

AnneEyhtMeyer · 29/07/2013 13:47

I have curly frizzy hair. It is a nightmare.

Afternoon everybody. Managing to watch live today. Anyone else around?

AnneEyhtMeyer · 29/07/2013 13:47

Yes Curly. That wasn't a heartfelt "yes" was it? He also looks like a moody teenager.

MsNobodyAgain · 29/07/2013 13:48

The doctor that proposed has funny hair.

Jimmi has car trouble, where's MrsT when you need her.

MsNobodyAgain · 29/07/2013 13:49

Red flags galore with this guy. MN would rip him to shreds. Grin

OP posts:
AnneEyhtMeyer · 29/07/2013 13:52

I think she has a lot of red flags too. Seems to be interested him because he is a doctor rather than a love-interest.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 29/07/2013 13:53

I want more Hestembe - I hope they're not going to let that storyline drift by forcing him and 6tl together.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 29/07/2013 13:54

Is Jimmi really that simple?

Oh yes he is, sorry for the daft question.

curlyclaz13 · 29/07/2013 13:56

ooh she's got a bit o'rough on the go too !
car sales man is up to no good.

MsNobodyAgain · 29/07/2013 13:56

If Heston gets together with that reptilian frozen faced tart, I'm off.

What's Al up to?

OP posts:
AnneEyhtMeyer · 29/07/2013 13:56

Oh it's her husband!

MsNobodyAgain · 29/07/2013 13:57

The bit of rough is easy on the eye. Phwaor.

I think that should be our next thread title, MsN! Grin
