New thread for us

A patient whose hobby is pottery is admitted with a mystery ailment. A low-status member of the Holby staff takes the time to talk to the patient and makes a diagnosis of Earthenware Pottery Syndrome (a very rare but potentially fatal condition)?

Haha love it!

PaddingtonBearHardStare · 13/05/2019 18:54

I can actually imagine Hanssen talking about earthenware pottery Grin

Just caught up on last week’s episode.

What was the point of the actress storyline?

And is anyone else getting annoyed with the childlike way that Nikki and Cameron behave on the ward, running away from Jac etc - it comes across as so juvenile and unprofessional. It just bugs me.

Ladymargarethall · 14/05/2019 06:12

This is Holby. Does there have to be a point?

SleepingStandingUp · 14/05/2019 08:49

I think it was just another thing to push a conflict between Jac and Doc Hot

Cam and Nikki do only seem to do one case a day...

DrCristinaYang · 14/05/2019 20:10

10 mins in and Carole's already pissing me off with her nosy infearing

MyOtherProfile · 14/05/2019 20:30

Argh I just went to the loo and missed what Lofty was saying to what's her name. Has he gone off Dom?

Hesperatum · 14/05/2019 20:35

What has happened to Holby? So boring at the moment. We need more Hanssen, Serena, Jac and much less Dom, Essie, Lofty and give Sacha a break.

MyOtherProfile · 14/05/2019 20:37

Totally agree. This adoption story and big bad Evan is tedious.

Isitmybathtimeyet · 14/05/2019 20:44

This is a mental health special I think. Never going to be laugh a minute.

Isitmybathtimeyet · 14/05/2019 20:44

And I say that as a pill popper myself.

MyOtherProfile · 14/05/2019 21:00

Was that photo Dom was looking at on his phone Evan? Or have I got that totally wrong?

WheresThatCatGoneNow · 14/05/2019 21:18

Who was the man that came to hook up with Dom right at the end?

Isitmybathtimeyet · 14/05/2019 21:51

Arsac, innit?

WheresThatCatGoneNow · 14/05/2019 22:18

Do you mean Isaac, the abusive ex-boyfriend?

MyOtherProfile · 14/05/2019 23:08

Yes twas him

HowDidSheGetTheFuckingScissors · 14/05/2019 23:16

OK. Only started watching fairly recently - can someone give me the Cliff Notes backstory on Lofty and Isaac?

MyOtherProfile · 15/05/2019 04:47

Basically they were in a really toxic relationship where Isaac ended up physically abusing Dom while telling him he loved him so Dom stayed and covered up what was going on until the day Isaac beat him up and Dom's friends (Jac and Sasha I think) stepped in and persuaded Dom to tell the police. HH was also involved in getting rid of Isaac I think.

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 15/05/2019 07:03

Yes, Dom hid the bruises for ages and although the others suspected what was going on, and tried to stage an intervention, Dom refused to admit it. Then one day, he and Isaac had a row at work (at the top of some stairs, obvs). Isaac made a threatening move towards Dom, who stepped back and fell down the stairs. He was quite badly injured and in treating those injuries, HH discovered older bruises and fractures that had gone untreated, and was able to persuade Dom to report Isaac. It was a really moving episode and built up a lovely relationship between Dom and HH and Sacha.

MyOtherProfile · 15/05/2019 07:18

Oh yes I had forgotten the details there. Thanks for adding those TheOnly

0DimSumMum0 · 15/05/2019 07:22

Definitely getting a bit tedious. Dom
always has such heavy storylines and it seems to have been one after the other. I'm not sure that so much can happen to one person.

PretendLife · 15/05/2019 09:09

Well that is Holby, like Jac having 8 near death experiences...

Dom has had far too much airtime recently. Lofty cheating on him just doesn't make sense, doesn't fit the character at all, just being used for convenience of lazy script writers.

Bringing back Issac is ridiculous too. Did Dom contact Isaac knowing it was him? or just another 'coincidence'.

WheresThatCatGoneNow · 15/05/2019 11:37

Well I didn't recognise Isaac from the photo (or in person, to be honest) so maybe Dom didn't either?

He looked totally different from the last time we saw him.

PretendLife · 15/05/2019 12:06

He is Isaac with a beard. Dom would have recognised him, he was his partner. Isaac got to Holby pretty quickly as well didn't he! If they are going to go with Dom didn't recognise Isaac with a beard storyline that will be a new all time low for Holby.
