DOCTORS- It's May in Letherbridge, so of course there is snow on the ground, Mrs T is going green, and the writers are recycling the storylines...

[Raahh]

Before we run out ...

I mean wtaf, it's all very well having snow due to the filming schedule. But what dolt decided a frozen pipe in May would make a suitable storyline?

Enrique thank you I had a lovely week away on holiday, just a few hours drive away but the weather was perfect. Very relaxing.

You asked me that question on the last thread by the way.

Well blame I had no idea that those spectacles (on the boy who needs a bone marrow transplant) were fashionable nowadays. Heaven forfend, I'll get me Deidre specs back on one of these fine days.

told the frozen pipe story line was just daft.

At this rate, they will end up with a load of people suffering from sunstroke in November.

Told
My mother had Deirdre specs, and also upside down ones, like Dennis Taylor the snooker player wore. They were quite fashionable for 5 minutes in 1985 .

I need new glasses- although I'm not sure it's my prescription that's changed, More the fact the lenses are so scratched, I can't see through them

I'm the same, Raahh. Dare me to spend my money on a pair of those! I'd look greaaaaaaaaaaat

Nice He-Man reference there told . Unfortunately they are tres chic frames. Along with young girls wearing hideous aviator frame usually to big for them hidden in the drawer because I haven't sold any to anyone apart from farmers in years. Derdrie frames are on the way out.
Today's story was very random, considering they keep mentioning Ramadan they know when it's being aired, but obviously they were filming mid winter a couple of weeks ago so decides to go with it.

Okay I've searched on the previous thread but I can't find it. What does MBE stand for? I notice it's the same as the last 3 letters of Mrs Tembe but I doubt she's her long lost sister so what is it? Mad Bonkers Ex?

The actress who plays the evil Amanda has been awarded an actual MBE in RL.

Hence MBE

Thank you Subtitles. Sometimes this thread is even more surreal than the show (not really possible).

Only just caught up. Totally agree with Nut, Ruhma is the most preachy person on the planet.

Only 20 minutes left to vote for Soap Awards

Twist

DD came in while it was on on catch up and asked me if it was anXmas episode!!

I was trying to find out the different in age between Jimmi and MBE in reakl life, and got sidetracked, Apparently, Daniel is nearly 50. That was a surpise!

I looked it up when she first started , mainly because it threw me how long ago The Colbys was . She's 57, and he's about 45. Not really that huge a gap, in later life, but significant if they meant when he was a teenager. Though their 'soap' ages might be different.

Daniel nearly 50. That is a surprise. I would have thought he was 40.

Daniel obvs has a secret stock of botox. He is selling it to MBE on the quiet.

Daniel looks very good for almost 50!
MBE looks older than that. Note to self that fillers and Botox do not help the ageing process at that age.

I think her hair really ages her. Long flowing Disney locks on someone her age don't always look good.
I do hope they wrap the story line up soon though - she's painful to watch . Although then we will have to deal with Jimmi, who will probably have given her all his money, and end up living in 6tl's spare room.

Yes, you're right - I'm all for ageing disgracefully but there's a limit
I can't deal with a miserable Jimmi.

It would , though be a way to knock on the head the air b and b storyline.

But do I hate 6tl enough to make her have to put up with Misery Jimmi? She's already had to live with Eeesh, and had her mum wee on her rug .

Maybe MBE could go on a killing spree and kill 6tl, Jimmi and Ruhma
No Doctors today.

MBE could pair up with James on her killing spree, since she likes 'em young.
