That last thread filled up quickly! Here's a new one for us.

As a PP said, I can't quite forget how vile Dom was to Malik in the early days, so his rehabilitation has never made me warm to him. It looks as though his troubles aren't over, though. Carol to the rescue?

Xav has just annoyed me by telling that patient that it's all confidential when she asked if what she told him would be private.

Donna's very quick to discount Xav's concerns, isn't she? OK, so he should be tackling the Cam situation in a much more discreet way, but you'd imagine she'd actually listen to what is making her man so agitated.

Cam is so creepy. I feel a bit sorry for Xav (who I don’t even like) because of how unsupportive Donna is being towards him.

SleepingStandingUp · 26/03/2020 05:24

I'm so over the Cam ztoeylin. Can we have a break from evil people?
We've had Isaac, Evan and now Cam in quite quick succession if we count Isaacs re-emergence. I'm just over it.

The coffee scene in theatre was clever tho. My first thought when he handed him to drink was was it spiked, but psyching Xav out and making him look paranoid far more effective. I do worry he's going to try and hurt Xav. However if that's what it takes to get rid of Cam I'm willing to sacrifice him!

Max was also sneaky with her leak. I don't like HH being caught out!

Why not just tell her daughter no letter arrived??

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 26/03/2020 06:29

If Xav and Donna are at the stage in their relationship where they're living together, I'm a bit perplexed by how quick she is to completely rubbish his concerns and stick up for Cam. Surely you'd listen to your partner and talk through their worries? She's incredibly immature in some ways.

I dislike Max intensely. I can't tell whether the writers intend us to feel any sympathy for her with this alcohol/daughter storyline but she leaves me absolutely cold.

I'm guessing that the letter Max has lost will contain something major that will come as a massive shock when they actually meet in person. As @SleepingStandingUp said, why not just say the letter hasn't reached her?

I suspect it might also have something that is damaging to Max.

And Hansen find the letter and save the day

Ahem! May I just draw your attention to my prediction of 26 March something major that will come as a massive shock when they actually meet in person ?

I couldn't read any of the text messages Max received/sent, but am guessing there wasn't anything of great importance?

Have to admit to feeling absolutely nothing with the Essie storyline.

I wasn't expecting Max's daughter to turn up as a bloke, I have to say!! I wonder how well the writers are going to handle that storyline.

I do feel sorry for Essie. Glad she and Dom are back together.

Biggest shock tonight was Ange's fringe!

spiderlight · 31/03/2020 22:12

The texts were Max saying she'd booked a table, Lily replying that she wanted to meet in a park, not a restaurant, and then after the park, Lily/Louis saying 'We can't just leave it like this'.

SoupDragon · 31/03/2020 23:17

What on Earth has Ange done to her hair??

Wasn't Dom in the scan room when they scanned Dr Digby? It's just a repeat

What on Earth has Ange done to her hair??

I thought it/she looked really good.

SoupDragon · 01/04/2020 08:41

The problem for me was the colour. The shorter layers at the front had no blonde - they were too short to look right and the dark jarred with the back for me. It looked almost like some weird long mullet.

The basic style is not dissimilar to mine!

SleepingStandingUp · 01/04/2020 14:08

I called sex change but literally at the lady second cos I couldn't think of anything else it could be. My other thought was a child but that wouldn't warrant her waking off.

QueenofmyPrinces · 01/04/2020 21:50

Just caught up....

I actually really liked Ange’s new hair!!

ChoccyJules · 01/04/2020 22:46

I know Max was shocked but did she have to be so nasty? She really only has the occasional flash of humanity (bit like Jac, yeah I know everyone loves Jac, not me).

The Fringe was very distracting.

MyOtherProfile · 01/04/2020 23:17

They really are portraying her as a cold hard bitch.

SleepingStandingUp · 02/04/2020 00:08

She's colder than Jac by far. It's a meaner cold rather than a disinterested cold.

I too liked the hair.

SoupDragon · 02/04/2020 07:37

Jac is more "no nonsense" than cold I think. Max is absolutely cold.

spiderlight · 02/04/2020 12:05

Nice to see David from Casualty doing a stint upstairs. He's a fantastic character and I hope they don't use him as a scapegoat in this flexible nursing malarkey.

SleepingStandingUp · 03/04/2020 04:10

I don't watch Casualty but I like David, he can do more shifts upstairs

Handbaghag · 05/04/2020 18:56

I'm just waiting for Henrik to step in and save the day 😣

Same here. I have been extremely disappointed in his return to be honest. Not really seeing the point of him being there. Has he even been in the last few episodes?

And if he has been in them, I have no memory of it which says a lot Hmm

MyOtherProfile · 05/04/2020 22:13

Yes he could be doing so much more. Come on writers!
