Doctor foster

[pineappleeyes]

Dr Foster is back on Tuesday

I vaguely remember this. Can someone jog my memory please? Also how did it end ?

Think medical centre and Northwood as well.

I'm late lunching alone whilst reading this thread and howling to myself!! Thanks ladies!

Agreed it is very far fetched but I love suranne. And I do think there's a bit of DF/the woman scorned in all of us....just below the surface....

Gamma I can think of several men who've behaved like that. Apart from suddenly coming into money and a beautiful house, I find Simon's behaviour and attitude quite familiar.

I have just watched ep 2. Not sure if I can stomach another - it's just too silly.

Her queen mother shoes! I suspect Suranne whatsit can't manage high shoes. I laughed at her dancing in the night club knowing she was wearing those granny courts.

I noticed the wine glasses too - they're the ones Majestic give you when you buy a case.

I haven't read the thread as didn't want to know what happens...so am on series 2, episode 1 and I'm CRINGING CRINGING ...GEMMA what are you doing??!!!
To be fair, it is being painted as really unfair...it all somehow works out for horrible smug ex and everyone now loves him

Gemma has gone nuts, does she not have any sense of boundaries

Agree that Blonde Dr's son is probably Simon's and that her, Gemma and Kate will conspire to kill him off in said pool for reasons that I cannot (yet) imagine.

I'm loving EdnatheHousemaid 's idea that the three ladies gang up on him

Perhaps blond doctor has found Simon to wreak revenge.

I watched the first series and am finding the second series a bit far fetched. I'm liking the characters a lot less this time round. Simon is smugger than an 'exclusively millionaires only' Jet Ski convention. (For want of finding a better analogy, I think we could start a new 'how smug is Simon's face' thread)

I think the chap who created this found his inspiration from the 'real life stories' in That's Life or Chat magazine....

@lotsofsighing wow that's not a bit trendy night spot is it.

Also sis anyone notice they played the same song as Tim's mate
Bbc running out if money to pay artists royalties??

Mumagain: Yes I noticed that. I kind of got the impression that it was done purposely, that she heard the song, recognised it from the boy dancing to it and that's what made her decide to go in. They then continued to play the song during the footage of her dancing and drinking shot after shot and was still playing when the teacher turns up (assuming after she texts him?) so must have been on continuous loop for at least half an hour!

Haha yes the remix version

hello all! I have finally caught up with the latest episode. Agree that Simon is going to end up at the bottom of the pool.
Reckon it will end with Gemma and Kate having to collude to cover it up and making some kind of fragile peace.

I keep finding myself hoping all this madness is part of a larger plan - wine with the 15 year old??? THINK WOMAN. But I'm starting to think she's just being portrayed as unhinged without any wider picture...

The writers said it was "Greek", I'm thinking Euripides Medea giving her rival a poisoned dress that kills her? Or nitric acid in the lube?

Witches of Eastwick effect

I thought that too Woodhill and most people would recognise the three witches trope and Macbeth etc which I know isn't Greek but I think it's what this writer would go for. It's not been that deep so far.

I can just see the final scene. Gemma's dressed in black but for an ugly pair of block heels. Her hands are dripping with the blood from her phantom wedding ring. She, Kate and Sian stand by the pool making pot-stirring motions and cackling while Simon drowns....

"Double, double, toil and trouble! Gemma gurn and Simon bubble! "

Well....I have finally got around to watching episode 2...erm...not sure I have the words...very surreal...I thought Gemma was going to make a move on the female doctor to get more info out of her, or get her to report other stuff back to Simon... She seems so desperate...and it was sad watching her trail around after Tom... But... as much as it's surreal looking forward to seeing episode 3....bit of a escapism is ok by me! Don't find Simon attractive in the least...to be honest I think faced with him I might go a bit ga-ga...you know...accidentally embed my stiletto in his eye...he makes my blood boil!

I think I read that Suranne Jones had just had a baby when she filmed this, hence the court shoes to a nightclub and having sex in a bra. She's clearly never done any safeguarding training, the way she's carrying on! She's asking to be struck off/ prison!

I agree re the bra..completely unbelievable.I realise SJ might not have wanted to get her baps out but they could have done the " naked shoulders poking out of a sheet " thing.
Any one else wondering where her handbag was when she was in the club? Also the timeline..she must have been out for hours?? And how come she wasn't shitfaced with everything she was drinking? And who are these mystery people everybody gets friendly with and dances with in clubs? If sue if I went to a club by myself NOBODY would talk to me never mind laugh and dan e and do shots with me

Last sentence should be "I'm sure if I went out.....dance and do shots with me"... Sorry, I've just been drinking wine with my 15 year old sons friend...

@MrsGrindah

Exactly Grindah in real life she would have been dancing like a loon by herself, while everybody else stands at least 2 metres away giving it faces and asking each other who the fuck the sad sack in the pussy bow blouse is.

To be fair though I don't think she had the fugly shoes on then, we only saw those delights the next day when she went clomping into Tom's school. She looks like Minnie Mouse when she wears them.

Hungover as fuck, morning, brightish light, first time sex - I might leave my bra on too

Plus he seemed to have broken his leg in the night so it had to be quick.
