Doctors Addicts Anonymous- where Gobby regains her memory!(we hope)

[Raahh]

Optimistic title!

Did anybody find the Clown/Emma episode creepy? Very sinister.

Also - what/who is 6TL?

6tl is short for 6th time lucky. The actress who plays Emma had 5 smaller parts in Doctors before she got the role of Emma.

Has to be a wig surely.

I'm always surprised by how well the GPs in Doctors know their patients. Heston is asked, how long have you known her? He says 5 years. I'm a regular at my GPs but heck, he certainly doesn't remember me!

And the way they suddenly decide to drop in on the way home, to check on a patient.... what doctor ever does that in real life?

And when they phone a patient on their mobiles and they just 'happen' to have the number.

Do the writers even live in the real world? (Says she who still watches it everyday :) )

Yes 6tl must wear a wig...
She should share wigs with Mrs T

I'm going to copy this post from Raahh from near the beginning of the thread. It might help with some of the acronyms.

This is the Doctors thread- where we discuss our favourite soap. We do not always stick to the topic. This is entirely normal.

We advise one dose daily of said soap, if you miss one, you may watch more than one at a time (overdose of wtf-ness can cause temporary insanity).

Some things you may notice on your prescription-

TBFE- the bloke from Emmerdale (Howard)
6tl - Emma (so called as she has been in it 5 times before, and is now a fully fledged cast member- who we are trying to lose).
Gobby and Gobbyplod - Rob and Karen, the only plod in the village and his wife (who has amnesia).

Feel free to add to list.

You might also see-
FOD - Mandy
Zaniel - Zara and Daniel
Hestembe - a future plotline where the writers finally get their act together and realise that Heston and MrsT are made for each other.

TBFE has moved on from 6TL

FOD may have pulled someone who doesn't look like Freya. 6TL and TBFE double date - I can see everyone leaving with a different partner.

There's nothing like a chat about open relationships to get a meal to go with a swing (so to speak).

Thanks for that list - its cleared up a load of mystery.

Mrs T is starting to get annoying, I wouldn't miss her if she left.

(hopefully not murdered by crazyguy) - although he's not as creepy as that Rev she was with

Sharing a cab and what else later...

Yeah but she's pulled someone who's loads of trouble!

Uh oh losingmybelt, MrsT is very popular here I think she has some great lines. Did you see the mattress episode?

That was going to end badly from the beginning but yay the annoying woman is off. I've been waiting for TBFE and 6tl to get back together since Chris left

They weren't exactly subtle

Mrs T is okay - but she should lose those awful wigs. They look just terrible on.
Why do they make the characters wear wigs on Doctors anyway? Doesn't 6Tl wear one as well?

MrsT has bright blond hair in rl so I'm guessing it's not her characters style but no idea wrt 6tl!

Why did 6TL have an 'open' relationship? Didn't they come to their 'agreement' before his accident?

You are not going to make any friends here dissing Mrs T

I see Letherbridge has escaped the mini-heatwave the rest of the country are experiencing. Everyone at the playground is wrapped up in coats.

From what I remember he just couldn't get it up she was seeing TBFE when he had the accident and called it off straight away to look after him.

What's wrong with not liking Mrs T?
I'm not going to pretend to like her character! That would be plain silly. :)

How nasty was Yoga guy to flirt with the annoying one in front of Emma! She's well-rid of him.

You won't get any agreement with that POV here.

I think they had the arrangement for years, didn't they?

Love the bad date!

Half bottles? Do they exist??

Not having snow in June is a heatwave in Letherbridge, Anne.
