Holby City continues

New thread for us

Dom knew who it was - there was no surprise in his expression at all. I think he believes he deserves what Isaac has to offer and clearly doesn't deserve anything better as both Lofty and Ange "betrayed" him in short succession. He's not full of self worth generally.

Do you think Isaac was on the app Dom was looking at for s*x? Dom gave that look as if he recognised someone, it could have been him.

The user name on the app began with Iss or similar so he may have known it was him. He was bloody close by though!

You can say sex on here 🙂

Haha!!! Thank you Soupdragon

Dom definitely looked like he recognised the person. That's when I thought it might have been Evan. Guess it was Isaac. Dom is really dumb if he contacted him after recognising him.

Dom is really dumb if he contacted him after recognising him. Yes, but are we seeing Dom in self-destruct mode? If the current situation is making him feel helpless/worthless maybe he is vulnerable.

Ah yes, of course. Self destruct mode. Not deserving of anyone better.

Been there, done that

Poor Dom. He's a bit of a lost soul, I think. Hope someone rescues him before any more damage is done.

I haven't watched last night's, but with all the comments on here and the spoilers it might be time to take a break.

I mean from Holby, not Mumsnet.

I think so NewModelArmy

Can anyone explain what Lofty said to Dom? My DM called just as they were talking and I missed the whole scene.

Not sure what scene you mean exactly? Dom (improbably) found a present that Lofty’s illicit shag had given him, and the next time we saw them Lofty had obviously told Dom he’d cheated and was saying it meant nothing and he’d thought Dom had gone off him.

Very bleak episode. Poor Dom's getting a kicking from all directions. It hadn't occurred to me that he might have contacted Isaac deliberately but maybe that's what he meant when he muttered 'What am I doing?' and went to walk away at the end, before Isaac appeared. This is going to end very, very badly.

(And not a single reusable coffee cup to cheer me up....)

I need to watch again on the iPlayer to freeze it when he was looking on the dating app. It was very quick for Arsaac to arrive either way. And how did he know it was Dom?

We'll need a new thread soon

Dom (improbably) found a present that Lofty’s illicit shag had given him

Wasn't it the other way round?I thought the present was from Lofty to the bloke.

It said Ben on it which is Lofty's actual name

Was it from Ben or to Ben Paddington?

To Ben.

It’s really boring at the moment and as I have never forgiven Dom for how he treated Malik I can’t sympathise with him. Also his character is again being portrayed as so self centred would he really drop his mum Carol so quickly and would he really not confide in his husband? Why would Lofty not bin the gift the moment he received it?

I know it’s Holby but it’s just so improbable right now I struggle to watch.

Funny you should mention that about Carol as I was begging Dom to go to her. Yes, she lied to him but she's the only one who truly cares about him. I just thought with all this with Lofty he would realise that she's still his mum and he would turn back to her.

I didn’t recognise that man as being Isaac at all. It wasn’t until the character spoke and I recognised his voice that I made the connection.

I also got a bit confused by Dom looking at the dating app - were we supposed to recognise someone?

And I also so desperately want Dom to realise that Carol is his true mum and go running to her for support and cuddles.

I find it improbable that Lofty would have cheated TBQH. And I'm sure that Carol will come to the rescue when Dom really needs help, once Isaac has got his claws back into him

Yep, think they're dragging out the isolation a bit linger so he can fall prey to Arsaac
