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

So, Halloween is nearly upon us. Which of the Halloween smileys suits the Doctors cast and it's viewers best (bear with me, this is tenuous):

Halloween Smile - Mandy (FOD), will make a pleasant witch (can we burn her at the stake?)
Halloween Grin - Karen (Gobby), she's got a mouth that big.
Haloween Sad - Howard (TBFE), tough times for him atm.
Halloween Wink - Heston, you sly old dog you.
Halloween Shock - everyone elses face on hearing about Hestons prowess.
Halloween Envy - Kevin, in awe of Heston, poor bloke.
Halloween Angry - Barry, on being turned down by his latest love interest.
Halloween Blush - Jimmi, on not realising it's Halloween andthentalkingtooquicklyandquietlytocoveruphisembarrasment
Halloween Confused and Halloween Hmm - us, the Doctors watchers. WTF?!
Halloween Biscuit - Mrs T. She doesn't do Halloween.

There's a thread about continuity in TV progs somewhere sparkling Grin

Sparklingbrook · 05/11/2013 17:45

Is there Ood? I will have to look. Smile

Just caught up on yesterday's and today's. Definitely too short on WTF. How did Gobbyplod manage to forget he'd run her over? Surely if you can't wake your partner up 'Oh shit I hit her with the car last night' is one of your first thoughts.

Managed to sort the HR/union thing out. They'd already checked the date with the union rep so he had it in his diary. I don't have the Occ Health report that we're supposed to be discussing anyway so it might not matter that much.

More annoyingly I've managed to lose my bus pass between getting on the bus and getting into work. Have no idea how I've managed to do it. I think the chances of anyone handing an £850 bus pass with 51 and a half weeks left to run on it in are slim. I could kick myself. Might just go to bed before today gets any worse.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 05/11/2013 20:37

Missed today's due to friend's real-life shit happenings, so am going in now.

Glad to see that your HR meeting is sorted, Clay. Hope it goes well for you. Remember you can always ask for the meeting to pause at any time so you can talk to your rep if you want to.

As for your bus pass, have you checked it hasn't fallen through a hole in your pocket into the lining? I've done that countless times before. I'm sure if someone found it they would hand it in. I would.

Raahh - hope you are feeling ok and not too stressed. Have you heard anything yet? Or is he still en-route? (Almost typed en-croute there - that would have been far more worrying!)

Raahh · 05/11/2013 20:57

pmsl @ en croute

he has 5 hours and 47 minutes til he lands in Shanghai yes, I have an app tracking the flight on my phone . T

then he has a 4 hour coach trip to the school they are staying at. Makes me ill just thinking about it!

And I still haven't caught up with today's and have eaten more biscuits

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:04

Right- am going in...

It's 80's day o the Gobbys' clock radioGrin

Gobbyplod can't sing.
Poor GobbySad. Are those blood spatters on the pillow case?

oh TBFE and Al and the bloody newts!

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:05

oh Vienna...

ClayDavis · 05/11/2013 21:06

Thanks, Anne. It is hopefully the last of 15 very long and argumentative months of almost monthly meetings. My appraisal last week was surprisingly OK so not forseeing anything going particularly wrong.

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:07

How can you see clear fluid?

ClayDavis · 05/11/2013 21:07

Only 5hrs and 38mins to go Raahh.

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:09

Poor Gobby.

It's worse, because I know bloody Valerie is coming backHmm

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:11

How would you know that a newt was a rare newt, and not jut a bog standard newt? And what if they just stomp all over them first?

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:12

Gobbyplod is a bit dim, really. How do you forget running over your wife?

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:13

It's a huge site- and TBFE only ditched a small box of newts.

I'm bored of the newts.

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:14

I wonder what colour Immie's hair is these days?

Poor Gobbyplod- he's so upset. I love the Gobbys.

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:17

Gobby Hollins!

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:19

Daniel on receptionGrin

MsNobodyAgain · 05/11/2013 21:19

Thank goodness he is not doing Movember this year. It would be hard to take him seriously.

Is there anyone Heston doesn't know?

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:21

MsN- Good point- the 70's porn look was really not a good one.

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:21

'relatively unscathed' is not reassuring HestonHmm

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:26

Oh no ominous beeping!

Raahh · 05/11/2013 21:27

And tomorrow we get the annoying one from Eastenders- who I get confused with the other annoying one from Eastenders, who occasionally turns up as a Plod.

OhFishyFishyFishyFish · 05/11/2013 21:35

I haven't watched Drs in ages but managed to tune in today Shock and felt compelled to come here and see what Sparkling, Raahh and MsNobody had to say Grin

(you won't remember me but I used to follow the Doctors threads when I was MustControlFistOfDeath and MildredIsMyAlterEgo)

My favourite bit was when Zara said to Daniel ''Do a good job and I'll give you some money to buy something pretty''
