Holby City continues

[Optimist1]

New thread for us

Maybe she was present during Ric and Lola’s night of passion? A ménage-a-tois perhaps??

OK so I dont watch casualty.

Dude who popped Sacha Daughters leg, is he always like that? I'd kill him if he was my kids doctor.
Connie, I remember her from when I used to watch. Has she got more cold? What happened to her re all the cuts and bruises? She just isn't as likable as Jac

Yeah I assumed Elle had Ric's no for booty calls

Dylan is easily the best character in Casualty, and if he saved your daughter from having her leg amputated you'd probably be as grateful as Sacha.

Connie got pushed down stairs and kicked around by a mystery person, hence the cuts etc.

Dylan is the reason I don't watch Casualty. Ivr tried a couple of times to get into it but I finding his acting so odd I can't get passed it.

I’ve always assumed he’s meant to be on the autistic spectrum? Aspergers? He was diagnosed with ocd a while back. I love him. The best character in Casualty imo.

And he’s very sexy - I would be permanently distracted if I worked in Casualty!!

Between staring Dylan, Ethan and Iain I wouldn’t get any work done!!!

Whereas Holby City, since Ollie was written out of the show they’re SERIOUSLY lacking any eye candy...

you'd probably be as grateful as Sacha oh that I don't doubt! DS has had some seriously terrible-people-skills-amazing-doctors-who-i'm-forever-grateful-to"

Doesn't make me like him. Although the aspergers comment makes sense and I think that's what's odd about one cross over episode. There's no character building or background.
I'm sure pure casualty fans had mean things to say baout our Holby docs (Jac)

I do like Fletch but he'd have to be FWB, I couldn't cope with his shit parenting. Duval is good looking but he knows it too much. Holby is quite female heavy actually.
Ric for any older ladies here??

Fletcher has no sex appeal at all. He’s looking very haggard and unkempt in the show lately...

And as for Duval....he’s a bit too much of a ‘pretty boy’ for my liking

He just needs some nurturing!

Cameron, Dom just to bland

Lofty, Sacha just no

Ric is ancient

Just caught up on the crossover episode and agree, apart from Charlie and Connie I had no idea who anyone was!

I seem to recall Connie marching off Holby into the sunset years ago and sending Jac a pair of high heels to take on her mantel, as it were, so why are they so daggers drawn now?

I haven't watched Casualty for years. I really don't like Connie!

I did like Elle though, she could come to Holby if she likes.

Fletch has gone off the boil really, compared to what he used to be like. I always preferred him as Smithy in The Bill. He doesn't seem to feature so much in Holby lately.

Despite his age Ric seems to keep on pulling the ladies doesn't he...not sure how realistic it is to keep pedalling this angle with him - but then it is Holby.

I did feel sorry for that poor sod on Reception who appears to be the one that caused the whole disaster though.

I thought we might finally be rid of essie then......

...but no, she‘s indestructible!

Did anybody else not know Essie is diabetic? How did I miss that??

Glad it wasn't Noels fault but funnily enough, in between the two episodes, I got sent a spam email (to my NHS email) saying I've won an award!!!
Nice to think the spammers get their ideas from the telly.

I dont recall anything being said before about her having diabetes, no. And wasn’t she locked in a creepy dark room when Gaskil was up to no good at one point? When she had a headache and he pilled her up and locked her in? No diabetic coma that day was there, ey?

I used to watch both religiously but gave up about this time last year - got behind and never caught up again.

But then my Mum has been to stay for 2 weeks and made me watch Holby again so I watched both for the crossovers. Loved the scene in Casualty with all the department heads in the lift - it was like coming home!

I’ll also be trying to record the old Holly’s. Mr Meyer was brilliant and dc2 may be named after Alex Adams

Was Gaskil Paul McGann? That’s around the time I stopped watching. Hansen was on his sabbatical I think?

Yes, that was Gaskell, but Hansen was around for most of him. He appeared at the same time as the shooting, so Hansen did disappear for a bit at the start. He and Gaskell were old friends though.

Sorry, got confused and thought this was the Casualty thread. You lot all know that already.

isitmy don’t worry - I was asking the question because I missed loads so missed most of the Gaskill storyline. I saw him turn up, set up his basement lair then missed the rest. I wondered if he was going to turn out to be a wrong ‘un.

He was very dull. Also, and this is partly my fault because I 'watch' Holby while I'm working, his bad deeds were quite complicated and I never really cared understood what exactly he was doing. And I don't watch Holby for sonorous renditions of William Blake. I watch it for people's legs falling off.

I watch it for people's legs falling off.
