New Holby City Thread

[Optimist1]

Thought I'd better start a new one since the old one filled up!!

Shouldn't there be a baying mob demanding HH's resignation?
Not on here, obvs.

Larry - that baying mob can fight me, I've got my handbag at the ready

Solo Yes! I screeched 'He's made it worse!' at the telly when Fletch took her.

I wonder if there might be a love interest between Morv and Damon. That 2ill definitely kill him off!!!

I'm sure we've seen another character die in that corridor. I'm also sure that jasmine had her hand in her pocket several times and would therefore have noticed the scalpel as she lost a finger...

Darwin award death and very weak scripting.

Was it the same corridor Fletch was attacked in a while back? Just thinking back through the years and the stabbing/murder rate at this hospital is through the roof! Government enquiry time imo.

Yes it's the corridor of doom alright. And also yes Jasmine was taking her phone in and out of the pocket before she accidentally fatally stabbed herself.

One thing that bugs me - the corridor shots look like a solidly built "Victorian" hospital yet the exterior shots and the wards etc look like an office block and very modern.

The two just don't match!

Lots of RL hospitals are like that though.....a jumble of new and old.
New exteriors with a few new wards etc but then part of the old hospital still very visible.....e.g., Taunton hospital.....like a rabbit warren!

Her phone was in her trouser pocket, not her scrub tunic pocket. You saw her put it in there after she talked to Ric outside just before she went to meet Jac/Fran.

My local hospital is like that. DM's local hospital is even worse. The front was as work house and then their are many different buildings put up over a period of nearly 100 years.

Wrong spelling of there

Nope! Sad but true...I've just checked on iplayer and she puts the scalpel into her right side tunic pocket, she is later seen putting her phone into her right side trouser pocket and she frequently has her hands in both trouser pockets!

Sorry! Was just being thorough with myself!

It is getting a bit daft . We all were wtf when we saw it Tues. We are avid watchers, shout at the screen etc lol. It was about this time last year that Arthur dieded and just now Cal on casualty , they need new storylines asap.

Beware Morven. Did her Dad die in he end?

Jac's 'I'll save you!' made me tear up. Poor Jac.

No Morven's dad still alive , he had an op (de rigueur lol)

Just seen Mo and Fran as characters in Tracy Ullman's show .... was quite funny seeing them out of scrubs ...

Me too re Tracey Ullman - had to do a double take.

I didn't actually click on it as it's a S*n link but I saw a headline which said Holby has lost half its viewers in a year.
Have to say it started with the death of Arthur but now Mo, Mr T and Jasmine have gone there aren't any story lines or characters left I really care about. Except perhaps Dom.

And if they close the trauma unit and Bernie goes...
Jason has had less air time too. We need more Jason!
They need to replace Mo with a decent character.
Jac and Matteo need to get back together. He should take his top off in her office lots to woo her.
Zosie and ollie need a big wedding
Morven and new F1 should get together
I can put up with Dom and Lofty if they also have a big wedding
Jac needs to push cow face off the roof
Dom mom can snog Hansen at Dom's wedding

From the article:

^"HOLBY City is in crisis after losing nearly half of its viewers year on year.
The BBC1 medical soap suffered a staggering loss with almost 2million viewers haemorrhaging from 2016.
....A source said: “It’s a tough time for the programme and bosses are worried things could get worse. Cast are trying to stay positive about the latest figures.”
Soap bosses have also faced a mass exodus with five key characters walking out in the last year. Figures now stand at a peak of four million while last year’s numbers topped seven million."^
