This is a thread for all fans of the weekday soap 'Doctors', BBC1, 1.45pm.

Right, now the stalker storyline is out of the way, I think it's time to channel our inner Howard and whip this programme into shape:

  1. Every opportunity must be taken to get TBFE in his fishing or army gear and get him all ruffly haired.
  1. Heston must stop messing about with restaurant reviews (and that reptilian Emma) and realise his love for Mrs T.
  1. Mrs T should wear her flirty wig (see note 2).
  1. Zara will continue to master acting purely by moving her eyebrows and saying "really?".
  1. The Gobbys will appear in as many episodes as possible to add comedy value.

So line up troops and let's march into the world of WTF!

Everyone is welcome, newbies, regulars and even cast members (arf).

Did a bit of physics when I used to be clever.

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 20/09/2013 14:11

i work with a load of molecular biologists, haven't got a clue what they're talking about half the time Confused

AnneEyhtMeyer · 20/09/2013 14:12

Maybe Mrs T will take out Barry to comfort him?

I hate hate hate 6tl.

cinnamongreyhound · 20/09/2013 14:14

Not sure I would anymore, been childminding for 5 years now Shock

MsNobodyAgain · 20/09/2013 14:17

Well, that's that.

Now I just have to wait in the house instead of leaving for the school run. DD is walking home alone today, first time ever.

Don't let her catch you watching MsN

curlyclaz13 · 20/09/2013 14:20

Bit behind due to Bum Of Doom striking again with his usual great timing !
another Sad one today but nice all the doctors rallied around for zaniel !
I predict some excellent wig action at the talent show Grin

Youwhowho · 20/09/2013 16:17

Hello, Must confess to being a bit of a lurker (stalker?) on your thread. I love it - all your comments. Not really in the same league as you lot though - considerably older leave it at that (DS has just graduated). However I couldn't help but notice the comments re: returning much-loved characters. Any idea who and when they are returning?

MsNobodyAgain · 20/09/2013 16:28

Hi Youwhowho Smile

See.......I knew we had lurkers. Ok, a lurker, singular Grin

I'm baffled by the returning much-loved characters as well as I couldn't find mention of it in the TV supplements or online. PM me if you find out though if you don't mind. Ta!

smilingthroughgrittedteeth · 20/09/2013 16:39

I'm a lurker so you definitely have 2 Grin

MsNobodyAgain · 20/09/2013 16:46

Yay!

Now, if any of you are scriptwriters, could we have our WTF factor back please.

Fankyouverymuch.

Youwhowho · 20/09/2013 16:47

See, we're all coming out of the woodwork now! I spent a good five minutes in the Co-op today rifling through the mags to try and find a reference to the returning much-loved characters but had to give up before they swooped on me! Was out of the country last Saturday so didn't catch the news in the Sun ( we read the Telegraph don't ya know) but really I am a closet Sun reader! Any further news welcome. I don't quite know why!

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 20/09/2013 16:48

We stopped buying the Sun as it was not really the sort of attitudes to women that I want the DCs to grow up with, but I do miss the soap gossip. Always read it at the ILs though Blush

Raahh · 20/09/2013 17:40

I missed today due to a meeting at school. Judging by the thread,it may be worth watchingGrin

Mongolian blue spot?

Does this mean the Zaniel storyline is over now. Please say yes.Grin

I hate 6tl, regardless of what she doesGrin

Raahh · 20/09/2013 17:45

And being as this is Doctors the 'much loved characters' will probably be either a) randoms we don't remember or b)characters we hated- Ruth/Princess Bubblegum/Stalker Val.

It won't be Freya(who?) thoughGrin

Unless....given the actress's subsequent weightloss it could be Freya, as her more stylish twin. No lumberjack shirts allowed.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 20/09/2013 18:02

Lurkers! Come out and stay!! We are lovely really!

If the "much loved returning characters" are not Ronnie and George then I don't care. I agree with Raahh, they will be some random. Unless Mac and Juuuuuuulia have got back together and returned to Letherbridge?

If Ruth comes back then I am not watching again. (But you know I will really, I'll just be on here moaning all the time).

Raahh - Zaniel storyline almost over I think. Smile Barry was ace today, although a sad storyline.

leezl · 20/09/2013 18:11

Okay so I worked all day. Waiting for DH to pick me up now so we can go home and pack for our weekend visiting his parents and my siblings (separately), then home again on Sunday night when I need to unpack and repack to visit my mum for a week on Monday. I don't think I'm going to get a chance to catch up for ages! ConfusedConfusedConfused

leezl · 20/09/2013 18:11

On the plus side it will be like watching a feature film as I'll have so many to watch at once! Grin

MsNobodyAgain · 20/09/2013 18:17

leezl you get a MN virtual mug if you watch 5 in a row. Brew

True Fact.

I'm just recovering from reading MarmaladeTwatkins thread which made it to Classics in record time. Shock

OP posts:
ClayDavis · 20/09/2013 18:21

Marmalade's thread is hilarious. I watched 5 in a row about a month ago. It'll mess with your head.

Another Sad one today. Hoping for something a bit more upbeat next week.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 20/09/2013 18:23

I have watched 14 in a row once. I nearly ended up in rehab.

smilingthroughgrittedteeth · 20/09/2013 18:33

I record them then watch the whole weeks worth on Friday my day off

dp claims it's rubbish but I'm not allowed to watch it without him Grin

AlphaBetaOoda · 20/09/2013 18:49

Ooh yay for lurkers! but who's the secret Doctors writer that nicks our ideas

Still hoping for that webchat someone suggested ages ago,

cinnamongreyhound · 20/09/2013 19:38

Hello lurkers :)

I watched yesterdays and it seems Joe was just somewhere else in the house MsNobodyAgain as he wasn't taken away. Hope your ds got home safely.

Annoyed from the start watching it, I remember Joe's first birthday with Daniel having his supervised visit with Gobby but the baby Zara put in bed was clearly you get than a year! It was a very sad episode but a good one I thought, poor girl lucky gobby plod was on her side as 6tl assumed the worst straight away :(
