Doctors Addicts Anonymous - A Christmas Song

[MsNobodyAgain]

This is a thread for all lovers of the daytime soap 'Doctors', BBC1, 1.45pm. All welcome, newbies, regulars, lurkers. Let me entertain you with a festive song:

The 12 Days of Doctors Christmas
On the twelfth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me
Twelve Mandy's fretting
Eleven Chris's whinging
Ten Jimmi's washing
Nine Heston's scripting
Eight Barry's peering
Seven Daniel's flirting
Six Zara's glaring
Five paaaa-tients!
Four sad Robs
Three pies for Al
Two Karens
And a tabard in a pear tree

The apostrophe police will have a field day with that one ^

(Private note to Kev: go on.....show me your baubles! )

Arf at Heston not wanting "random insertions"!

Poor Karen

I think I'm with Barry on art vs. rubbish.

Oh I'm being confused by the codes - I didn't mean TBFE, I meant that nurse woman. I'm rubbish at remembering all the names, let alone the codenames!

Horrible brat - I'm on Barry's side.

Don't worry, she will be working in McDonald's after she finishes her art degree.

Very true, Hoggy.

Poor Barry, he does walk into these things headfirst. What a horrible girl.

Oh dear looks horrible tomorrow for Rob :(

I'm going to miss tomorrow's live, as have to go to Christmas church thing at DD's school.

Can't believe it is the last one until January. We will need to talk about noting for three weeks. No change there then.

I may or may not be watching tomorrow. DD will still be off school (she threw up again just before Doctors started) and the plumber is coming to service the boiler "late morning" so depends when he gets finished (he is very chatty).

Missed today's due to workmen starting at 12.30. Grrrrr! I had to make conversation and everything.

Should catch tomorrows live but it'll be sad by the sounds of it.

Does anyone know what date it is back on in January? I like to put it in my diary. shoot me now

I've just consulted the Christmas Radio Times which finishes on Fri 3rd and no mention, hopefully it will be back the following Monday.

I'm sure I read that it is back on the 6th January.

I just went on the Doctors website to try and find out for definite and came across this in FAQS.

"Are the Mill and Campus the only surgeries in Letherbridge, they seem to have a huge number of patients?"

Are they talking about the same programme?

Not sure there's been a single patient this week.

Missed todays due to giving blood, will catch up with thread and episode tomorrow hopefully!

They have got to be taking the piss, WhoKnows! What was the answer? They have shown other practices in the past.

The answer is this

No, we've mentioned and featured other surgeries in the area, particularly Sutton Vale. But yes, the surgeries do serve a very large patient database, but then – they have to supply us with 230 stories a year!

So, with an estimated average of 1 patient per episode that's 115 patients at each surgery. So if say 50,000 people live in Letherbridge there must be hundreds of other surgeries

Maybe it was from one of those who didn't notice Jizz being pregnant

I think your estimated average of 1 patient per episode might be a bit optimistic.

Hello peeps! I have been terrible lately, and all my family have been ill.

Dd2 is supposed to be going for a first trip to nursery tomorrow, but ds is really ill, so unlikely she will go.

And i have just set fire to the dd2's mini christmas tree and set off all the fire alarms.

I'm currently sat here with all the windows open.

Raahh how on Earth did you set fire to a mini Christmas tree? Did you do it on purpose? Were you trying to cleanse the house of sickness with some smoky Christmas tree?

I can recommend bicarb and bowls of white vinegar dotted around to clear the smell if it lingers. Two months on and you almost can't smell the smoke unless you go into the kitchen.

Hope your DS gets better soon.
