MsNobodyAgain · 06/12/2013 14:49

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

Xmas Smile Xmas Smile Xmas Smile

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

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

Grin Clay I remember your burnt smoke smellGrin

i lit a candle, sneezed, and knocked it into the tree, Which had lights on. So I had to unplug everything, an then dump the tree in the sink.

I'm in big trouble tomorrow.

However- despite all the alarms,- NONE of my family woke up!!!

Xmas Grin

(the smell is really annoyingg meXmas Grin)

ClayDavis · 12/12/2013 23:09

Does it have that horrible burnt plastic smell? That was what got me the most. Consider yourself lucky you smoke alarms aren't linked to the entire building, setting them off in every other flat as well.

I have just laughed out loud at that. It's completely the sort of accident I would have.

DrinkFromSantasFountain · 12/12/2013 23:29

Hello.
Can I join in, I have no idea what all your codes mean and have only been watching since the start of the Jas stalker thing but I have to sky plus it and watch it while eating tea, ds demands doctors! He won't eat when it's not on, we watch peppa at the weekend)
The Karen storyline is annoying me, just get her back to normal and dye her hair back!
Did anyone understand why she rang jack?

ClayDavis · 13/12/2013 01:10

Welcome Drink. There's a few of us who can't watch live so watch in the evenings.

You'll get used to the codes
TBFE - The Bloke From Emmerdale is Howard
FOD - Forehead of Doom is Michelle
6tl - 6th time lucky is Emma - the actress who played her had had 5 smaller parts in Doctors before she got the role.
Gobby - Karen
Gobbyplod - Rob. I think he's occasionally known as the only plod in the village as well.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 13/12/2013 09:46

Hello and welcome, Drink!

I think Gobby rang Jack as he came to visit her in hospital when she didn't realise he was her son, and then she saw his message left on the GobbyWiki page they have set up to help her remember. I think she rang him because she is trying to make sense of who she really is.

I think the storyline is really good, we are seeing it from all angles and the impact the injury has on everybody. It is heartbreaking to see how it has affected Gobbyplod. I hope she does recover but if they rushed it it would be ridiculous.

MsNobodyAgain · 13/12/2013 10:00

Welcome drink Xmas Smile

The bit that confused me Anne was why Gobby asked if Jack had a girlfriend. Maybe it was from a motherly aspect, not in a fancying aspect hopefully. She just wants to know he is happy/normal?

I enjoyed the panto bits in yesterdays although I am mildly traumatised by seeing Als chest hair spilling over his Buttons costume. Bleurgh!

Didn't like Barry getting made a fool of. I'd like him to find lurve.

Highlight was Mrs T in her splendid costume and she had her nicer wig on.

I have faux candles this year - got a pack of 6 in Costco which are remote-controlled and they are fab! I love them! You can put them wherever you like and they don't set the house on fire.

I thought the girlfriend question was because she wanted to know if he was happy and settled.

OodKingWenceslas · 13/12/2013 10:37

Yay new recruit! Welcome drink :)

Raahh · 13/12/2013 11:11

cinnamongreyhound · 13/12/2013 13:51

Is FOD going to be cinders?

HoggyTruffle · 13/12/2013 13:52

Last doctors of the year and I couldn't connect to mumsnet! Now I've kicked my coffee over - small potatoes compared with flaming Christmas trees.

MsNobodyAgain · 13/12/2013 13:52

Heston "I'm perfectly happy to don a frock".

Yes, he looks that type...

MsNobodyAgain · 13/12/2013 13:53

cinnamongreyhound · 13/12/2013 13:54

I watched half of yesterday's before internet went down, back now :)

Loved the cracker, and Barry's line to the woman in the bar!

Poor Gobby, she's really walking into a disaster trying to find phil :(

HoggyTruffle · 13/12/2013 13:54

If I was a bloke, I may find Daniel strangely alluring in a frock and makeup. I haven't even been at the Christmas sherry yet.

bellsringingoutforMadHairDay · 13/12/2013 13:55

Phew, finally connected, MN was down!

Oh dear at Karen.

HoggyTruffle · 13/12/2013 13:56

TBFE's moustache! It could act without him.

cinnamongreyhound · 13/12/2013 13:57

Hi DrinksFromSantasFountain! FOD is Mandy not Michelle ClayDavis is stuck in the past Wink

OodKingWenceslas · 13/12/2013 13:57

Pushing 50 ? Really ? Dh is 51 and looks younger than her.

cinnamongreyhound · 13/12/2013 13:58

Wow! They've got a big crowd!

HoggyTruffle · 13/12/2013 13:58

Gobby's friend was wearing pearls. Is that what you have to wear if you approach 50? Confused
