BBC Casualty: everything from the cranium to the phalanges

[StripySocksAndDocs]

New thread as the old one comes to its end.

I like Ruby, Queen. If I was a paramedic I'd definitely be more of a Ruby than an Ian. (And I liked Nancy in EE, when she played that role)

I like Ruby too. She's doing her best. I will be really interested to see the dynamic between her, Gemma, and Alicia.

I don't get the "Duffy has depression" storyline coming out of the blue. Surely logically we should have seen some build-up to it?

Each week Gemma pops up I hate her even more. She just doesn't seem to blend well with the rest of the cast.

Ruby I'm just loving! She's a great insight to the world of the paramedics and the challenges they face. It's like we're learning with her.

I like Ruby too. I also don't get the depression thing. It's out of the blue. My first thought was actually that they'd go on to say they'd made a mistake and it's a physical thing in a week in the future

I like Ruby too, she's just trying to do her best. Glad Ian is being nicer with her, she didn't deserve that treatment.
Duffy having her spin out was so cringey, just didn't wash at all.
I agree with pp, v unprofessional of them to tell Louise she was the only candidate and her attitude stinks.
The storyline with the little boy was really touching, very well played by the mother.

I don't remember Duffy being such an awful actress when she was in it first time round.

When Duffy was in it before she was quite animated, wasn't she? Now she hardly moves, rarely smiles and is just generally wooden although if I was married to Charlie I expect I would look like that too .

Remember Duffy's incredibly broad Bristol/West Country accent right at the very start of Casualty? That was awful.

I just want Ruby’s hair 😁

Damn Duffy took the biscuit with the shit acting this week 🤣

Ruby is still annoying

I hope Gem isn't paying much for that room!

I was sad for Elijahs mum 😢

Just watched last week's on iPlayer.

Fab storyline about Elijah and his mum. Like a PP I fastforwarded through him getting in freezer as I knew it would be too upsetting.

That Jamila 'consultant' looked about 26. As if she would be a consultant so young, I thought she was joking! And why doesn't Rash just stand up to her?

Ever since Alicia decided in about ten minutes she wanted to specialise in paeds (despite being an ED reg ) she seems to be treating all the kids and on the kids' wards... with Connie and Ethan.

Wanted to laugh at Charlie and Duffy's 'acting'. They are both terrible - why can't the producers/directors see it?!

Rash doesn't stand up to her cos he's not very good at that sort of thing. Some people aren't

Jamila being a consultant is an absolute joke. She can't be older than late 20s.

Of course purpleme sorry if I offended you. I avoid confrontation like the plague! Especially with someone like Jamila - too intimidating!
I was just trying to make the point that they were presumably signposting into a storyline of her blackmailing Rash about his relationship and Rash and Gem breaking up. I may be a bit overinvested in him as I have a little crush on Rash. Loved his glasses

Behind as on holiday

Poor Dylan and doggy

@MrsBosh I ff too I couldn't bear to watch.

Cried my eyes out through casualty today, I really felt for Jacob and his mum. My oh has MS so that storyline was a little too close to home.

Sorry to hear thst jmh740.

Really enjoyed today's episode. The little boy carer acted brilliantly. I loved how protective of his dad he was.

Loved Ruby standing up to their boss too!

Can anyone else see a Ruby and Iain romance forming?

Ooh, interesting Queen! I'd not thought that... I certainly like Ruby more than Smug Sam

In her first episode I'd thought that her and Dylan would work. Where is Dylan btw?!

He'll be back - have you not seen the Autumn trailer? Was released on Friday.

I don’t watch the trailers if I can avoid them.
