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.

Regulars, please sign in. Leave your broomsticks by the door. Lurkers, newbies, please join, jump in, ask questions. All welcome Grin

Just got home so going to catch up on today's. It's looking quite WTF already and I'm only about 90 seconds in.

I am such a sad personGrin

I have just got over excited because the new JL xmas ad will preview online tomorrow.

I was working there when they did the first one- cue accusations of 'selling out'. The ad was clever, but a bit dull.

I am watching today's and playing '80s reference' bingo.

You know the phone number on her hand. Isn't it a mobile number starting 07? In the 80s?

You'll have to wait and see Sparkling.

Good to see that we were wrong about not being able to do WTF with a head injury. They've managed it beautifully.

cinnamongreyhound · 07/11/2013 19:23

I watched while ignoring the children, 6-10 year olds in the kitchen this afternoon. Loved all the main characters turning up as random people in Gobby's dream.

Sparklingbrook · 07/11/2013 19:24

DS1 (14) is on his laptop but keeps looking up thinking I can't see him watching it. Grin

ClayDavis · 07/11/2013 19:35

It is so bad that you just have to watch and keep watching if you are in a room while it's on.

Sparklingbrook · 07/11/2013 19:39

DH wandered in and asked 'What are you watching'? Grin I said 'Doctors' (he has seen the odd episode) and asked why the woman was dressed like that. So i just said 'head injury' and he wandered back out. Grin

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 07/11/2013 19:48

Agree about the Gobbies, both great actors and they really do connect well.

ClayDavis · 07/11/2013 19:50

I don't think I've ever managed to find anyone in RL that actually watches it. Possibly my uni flatmates but it might just have been me.

Sparklingbrook · 07/11/2013 19:50

A Gobby spin off beckons. 'At Home with the Hollins'. Grin

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 07/11/2013 19:53

One of my friends watches it (I know because I have seen them commenting on the FB page - it popped up on that right hand sidebar).

Sparklingbrook · 07/11/2013 19:59

It's a dirty secret isn't it? Grin

cinnamongreyhound · 07/11/2013 20:04

I happily tell anyone who'll listen, tried to convert my stepdad when he retired but he likes his quizzes and property programs to has to get the list of jobs my mum gives him while doctors is on Grin

ClayDavis · 07/11/2013 20:12

Yes to the dirty little secret Grin.

Now I think about it I'm sure Doctors then Diagnosis Murder was a staple part of the daily routine in our house. Mind you I think we watched every medical drama and documentary going so it would have been surprising if we hadn't watched Doctors.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 07/11/2013 20:15

Missed it live today as had to go to the shops to take stuff back after bloody Clarks sent out the wrong size trainers for DD despite the box saying the ordered size. Grr!

Right, I'm going in.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 07/11/2013 20:19

Loving the music!

AnneEyhtMeyer · 07/11/2013 20:24

Jimmi looks better in a postman's uniform! Can't see his daft hair! (Sorry leezl)

AnneEyhtMeyer · 07/11/2013 20:27

Heston! Shock

AnneEyhtMeyer · 07/11/2013 20:34

I love A-ha. Saw them in concert.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 07/11/2013 20:36

This is WTF than the handbag episode.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 07/11/2013 20:37

I'm so glad I'm watching this in the evening so I can have a glass of wine with it.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 07/11/2013 20:40

Daniel looks like he is in The Joy of Sex!
