A further Holby City thread

[Optimist1]

New year, new thread! Looking forward to tonight's episode ...

@SleepingStandingUp Yes I believe so, though I'm not sure even the most reckless researchers would go ahead when consent was verbally withdrawn..! He's a proper baddie!!

Well yeah, he'd surely lose his job and face legal consequences given the verbal refusal was witnessed by Essie??

I really hope Fletch Dad isn't another bad in. If nothing else, eldest child deserves some blooming decent parenting

Maybe in the missing bit where the operation became feasible again the mother gave her consent again. Of course, he’d already got hold of the embryos before then but I guess it would cover his tracks somewhat.

Nah, I reckon Essie will find them and it'll be part of the house coming down on him.

Or is it a bluff? We'll assume that and then there will be a flash back and a new consent form...

I think if Rugbyboy makes a good recovery Essie will offer to look after him for his deteriorating mother (sense of deja vu there?) and she'll forgive Gas-kill's transgressions because he's enabled her to be a mum.

Yeah, she really needs to go part time and adopt a baby

That would be typical of Holby if they have Essie taking on Rugbyboy. As if that scenario would present itself twice in her lifetime, and both times with hulking great teenage boys, hardly the same as mothering a young child.

What happened to Parker anyway? He's not still with her is he?

He went off to Portugal with his mum I think.

Roxanne noooo!
Could she be the major character?

Poor Roxanna - she'd been so brave in the face of Gas-kill's verbal attack, and wasn't intimidated when he was physically trying to stop her going off to tell all to HH. Stupid Meena wasn't even looking when she pulled out of her parking spot.

Oh my goodness what happened at the end? I saw Roxanne walk away from Gas Kill then I saw her lying on the floor... What did I miss? Blooming kids arguing at the crucial moment!

I think Meena will drive off in a panic and then Gaskill, the only other person who knows it has happened, will just turn around and walk away and leave her to die so his secret can remain that way.

MyOtherProfile - Meena was feeling sorry for herself because she saw Nicky and some colleagues making their way off shift together in a matey sort of way, got into her beemer, had a little snivel and then drove out of her parking space without looking where she was going. Roxanna was making her escape from Gas-kill and was more focussed on getting away from him than anything else. Result - Meena hit her (up across the bonnet type collision).

Oh my goodness! Thanks for filling me in. Just when I hopped the Gas Kill story might have reached its conclusion.

I really like Roxanna and had high hopes for her and HH.

Nah, she should have gone to Hansen with her suspicions simply AGES ago.

Oooooo I missed it! Catch up here we come...!

@StandardLampski I fear your thought may be correct

Oh no. GasKill continues in his madness. Poor Roxanne.

Oh no! I liked Roxana

I can't bear it if she dies. There will be months more of the tedious Gas Kill getting away with murder story.

I don't want her to die either, and am currently debating which of HH, Ric, Jac will be able to save her! Perhaps a combination of all three? As long as they don't let Gas-Kill anywhere near her...

Well, Roxanna clearly has a head wound, and in Holby that means she is going to need neurosurgery and as Roxanna is the neurosurgeon that probably leaves her life in the hands of Gaskill.........

There have been spoilers on this thread that perhaps mean that is not the case.....

Just watched on catch up. I like Roxanna, really hope it is not her that is the major character that dies. Being the only person in the world who doesn't like Jac I would still like it to be her, but as she has apparently been snatched back from the brink of death 3 times now it is looking unlikely.
I think I know what SoupDragon is alluding to and, yeah, that would make sense.
They really are dragging this death story out.....after deliberately letting the Jac actor leak the news.
