Tonight's was a bit heavy on the snot'n'tears, wasn't it? If anyone can devise a way of Fletch responding quickly and successfully to his treatment and stopping Essie thinking that she should be able to carry on life as normal whilst she's undergoing chemo, please implement your plan ASAP.

Medani's torso was the only redeeming feature of this episode. I've no idea what the pills he bought were - any ideas?

I don't feel confident that the cyclist is long for this world now that Cam has worked out who he is.

Nor do I, but I hope he lives long enough tovspill enough of the beans for someone (Donna?) to know the Czm connection to Xav's death.

Yes, Louis has got the measure of Cam.

I think Donna would question it long enough for the dude to Die. Louis would go straight to his Mom I reckon

I hope they're not writing Nikki out with the pregnancy, she's a week written character

SleepingStandingUp · 02/03/2021 10:08

RRAAAHHHHHHHHHHH Someone come talk to me on spoilers I need to talk about spoilers

SweetPeaPods · 02/03/2021 16:41

Just seen Nikki is pregnant in real life so possibly could be leaving while on mat leave?

SleepingStandingUp · 02/03/2021 16:46

Yeah that's what I posted on spoilers lol

SweetPeaPods · 02/03/2021 16:59

Oops sorry hadn't realised there was a separate spoiler thread?

SleepingStandingUp · 02/03/2021 17:02

I just meant that's why I got excited and needy re my post above yours

spiderlight · 02/03/2021 20:35

Poor Henrik :( :( That'll get messy with Sahira if it comes out.

ChoccyJules · 02/03/2021 21:11

I am SO angry, poor Henrik.

And that bloody Cameron!

Mumoftwoinprimary · 02/03/2021 22:39

If Sahira’s Dad abused Henrik - why did Henrik spend years caring for and mentoring Sahira? I hate it when Holby do this - bring in a random character who just happens to be connected to half the cast in some way or another which undoubtedly will cause a big drama.

spiderlight · 02/03/2021 23:22

Maybe he felt protective towards her in case her father had abused her as well. I don't see why he would have let Frederik go to that school though- not in a million years, given how profoundly the abuse has clearly affected him.

SleepingStandingUp · 02/03/2021 23:54

He said Fs Mom insisted so maybe he sent him thinking bad man wouldn't get near him and then when it looked like he might he pulled him out? If he couldn't admit the abuse it might have felt impossible to defy her wishes. Poor Henrik.

Re Sahira, either as pp said protective or he didn't realise when they first met and her being female, it wasn't a trigger?

Fucking Cameron and his little syringe of death

Elderflower14 · 03/03/2021 08:51

Poor Henrik...So awful at the end.
Why has no one let Carol know that Dom is in hospital?

spiderlight · 03/03/2021 09:08

I was wondering that about Carol as well. I'm sure someone was trying to ring her when he was first brought in but surely she'd have been flapping around him by now.

ChoccyJules · 03/03/2021 09:12

I assume the actress is shielding or other family reasons. But yeah, they need to mention her more. Dom does seem to have distanced himself from her over time.

SleepingStandingUp · 03/03/2021 09:15

I think because she can't come in it (I'm also assuming shielding) it's easier to not mention her than to keep doing the "I talked to carol" stuff, oh you just missed carol"

SleepingStandingUp · 03/03/2021 09:15

Perhaps she'll come in and have been on a 3 month cruise where she lost her phone on the first night after having sex on the deck with the bar hand Mario

Tragicroundabout · 03/03/2021 09:34

Maybe I have misremembered, but I thought that Henrik only found out about Fredrik when he (Fredrik) was an adult. How would Henrik have had any say in his schooling if he didn't know he existed at that point. If that is the case, this just seems to be more lazy writing. Why couldn't it just be his old teacher - why involve Fredrik. Having said that, I've missed Henrik being front and centre, but not sure this is the story I wanted to see him at the centre of ...poor Henrik Sad

SleepingStandingUp · 03/03/2021 09:48

According to Wikipedia they hadn't met, but I did think he knew but chose to not be in his life

januhairyfebruhairy · 05/03/2021 07:08

I wonder whether Bobby Edwards (if that was his name? My memory is short) has written down his observations somewhere in the case of his death? I am defo over Cam now and wish he would get found out big style.

Popfan · 09/03/2021 20:36

I had to come here and vent about the utter ridiculousness of the storyline where the Scottish doctor (forgot her name!) tells murderous Dr Dunn all about her suspicions before reporting him!!! So annoying!!! I'm fed up of this now!

17caterpillars1mouse · 09/03/2021 20:44

Wa anybody else shouting at the TV 'don't bloody tell him what you know!'

I didn't think Ange would be so stupid
