DOCTORS- the thread where we say good bye to the great Dr Heston Carter, r.i.p ( and with a bit of luck, his irritating wife).

[Raahh]

ready for Heston...

Fuzzy, back in the days when Friends was played on endless loop on Ch4 DH used to watch it morning and evening, drove me mad. I was more worried that the Eurovision lovers on this thread would spot my earlier post about how mych I detest it.

Since when was Karen a community nurse? I remember she used to be a HCA, but she's been on reception for years.

Meet

You hate Eurovision!

It's one of my favourite nights of the year .

It is the one programme I literally cannot bear being in the room for Raahh. I try every year but can't take more than a few minutes. It was even worse when Wogan (RIP) did it.

Eurovision is brilliant! It's the most loved annual treat in our house. Better than all the Christmas tosh TV.

Raahh you mentioned upthread about a gold digger /not paying attention in Tuesday's episode and what happened. I don't even recall a gold digger!

That hippy house was very clean!

@doctorsnoddy do you have a vpa (vulnerable patients assessment) scheme whereby you do home visits if someone doesn't get their repeat prescription?

@toldmywrath** we do not, might write or phone them. Our fictional medics rather fonder of a home visit than any real life gp I have ever met!

I too despise Eurovision. It is so long, boring and obscure. The geography bits are like a travelogue made by an Eastern European collective circa 1967.

Pencil I bloody love This Country, can't wait for the next series.

Don't like Eurovision though.

I can just about bear to watch Eurovision as long as I have good book to read at the same time but cannot stay awake for the voting. And I care nothing for who wins, so going to bed is always the best alternative.

I'm here...anyone else?

Told sorry, I was out this morningand just saw this- yesterday , there was a woman, unless i dreamt it (highly likely) who was very much Heston's proper 'type' , tall, posh, brunette. She appeared , waffling about a charity I think, I forget the details. It seems that Heston had been regularly sending her a postal order (dodgy) and I think she was was worried now he was dead this would stop.

Then the POTD moved on to ageing hippies and female Peter Kay impersonators, and I'm not sure what happened.

I might have been asleep through the whole episode .

Yes reporting for duty

Fuzzy I love the the Eurovision threads on here. They are great. But I'm usually asleep/ drunk by the time the voting starts .

I did make it to the end this year .

Oh, the library still exists.

What happened to the locks on doors and the security ?

Mrs Miller looks familiar...what else has she been in?

Like the idea of Hestons books being donated

She's very angry, isn't she? What about personal responsibility?

Oh, she's trying to blame 6tl.

Oh dear.

Daniel should be taking her to dancing class

Subtitles Sounds like it's his Mills and Boon and not his more high brow first editions

My late dad's books were all donated to a library (Liverpool Uni) all sorted out by his literary executor. It was a lovely thing to do with them. I'm not sure the local library would have been so interested.

think she was in Corrie many years ago
