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 wonder if Jimmi might talk Al into being a partner ?

Al being partner would really shake things up- would he have the money, though?

6tl was miffed they didn't ask her last time, but she hadn't been there very long at the time.

Make Tash a partner. Bet she's got loads of money from all the work we never see her do .

Raahh

I would love Al to be a partner

Perhaps his dad left him some money or his mum could give him some

Al might just have some.
He spends his £ on - real ale, and crazy Al stuff
It can't be that expensive.
He is the only one who lives in a normal house.
So no huge mortgage payments.

Maybe I'm over thinking this

Almost caught up, just today to go
Main thoughts:
WOOHOOOOO MBE has GONE although I almost vomited with their grossness.
Ramadan isn't about makeovers 👀
Ceebeebies lady was great.
Val did a most excellent job and Zara was actually nice for her.
THE DOSE was a bit weird.

Do I understand Val wrote that episode!? Good one!! And I love that she liked your tweet Subtitles

Actually I now want Al to become a partner. Can you imagine some of the fun to be had in meetings ?
Al and Mrs T would have to be working together to stop Zaniel getting their own way all the time

red I love your over-thinking of Al being a partner

I just hope that it doesn't end up with Zaniel killing him off

Does anybody know what value of money we are talking about?

I have £50,000 in the back of my mind but it could be just made up

Actually, if you do put in £50,000 10 years ago but the surgery has been doing well that money would have increased in value as a %

If the surgery has done badly with budget etc then the % is smaller

Also, £50,000 10 years ago isn't worth as much nowadays so a very bad investment

So how is it worked out how much money Jimmi gets back and 6tl/Heston/Sid/Al have to pay in

Is there actually a reason that Eeesh or (Tash) or CEEBEEBIES or rhuma or Val or Gobby or MrsT can't pay into the surgery to become a partner?

Obviously it usually is a Dr but is that actually the only people

Anyway, doctors is in a different world so anything is possible

I seem to remember a figure of £80,000 mentioned. I'm not sure if that is right though.

Oke doke yes £80,000

Jimmi must have loads of money stashed away. He's the most boring bloke on the planet, lives by himself, has been a gp for years in a practice that only works 3 hours a day and has managed various marriages / relationships without fathering children to pay for. He probably had enough hidden away in his hedgehog hidey hole to pay off MBE twice over , without rescinding his partnership.

but then there would be no storyline

Just seen the news on TWITTER

Turn on ITV

ooh - what did I miss??

Oh, I've just seen , did Al win??? Well done Ian!!

(he scrubs up well)

Watch it on +1

Just tweeted him congratulations and mentioned us

And now another award

Oh my goodness look at 6tl

Doctors have won another one! For the Bollywood episode. They are on a roll

Don't let Ruhma speak!

Hello Doctors Lovers! Have been absent from the thread but still watching.

Bloody sanctimonious Rhuma is obviously sanctimonious in real life. My heart sank when I saw her bobbing around trying to get to the mic.

So so delighted gorgeous Al got recognised tonight. He's a darling.

6tl has come as Beetlejuice.

Yes that's it Beetlejuice
