@TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross I thought exactly the same when I saw Rash! Totally forgot he was even in it still!

Saw Rash in last night’s episode - for two seconds while they shoe-horned in a crush on the new F1 (who miraculously returned with little explanation of where she’s been) for him - and realised I had completely forgotten he’s in it!

the programme is very weird at the moment, the way characters disappear for huge swathes of time. Won’t miss Matthew though, who was a completely charisma-free zone.

I’m warming to Stevie’s character because at least she provides an interesting tension to her scenes - loved that final exchange with Dylan. Everyone else just seems to womble around in a #bekind kind of way, looking vague and validating everyone else’s shite life choices.

Yes Stevie's character is a good watch and a strong character. What's needed. Paige actually went off cos her grandma died I'm sure.
Then went she was back last night Marty said have you had a good time off she said yes which didn't really tally up.

Annoying me as this thread won't appear in my watch list and I have to come into threads I am on. Also can't bookmark past where someone replied to me earlier in the week!

Anyway. Just saw on FB double episode next Saturday

TrashyPanda · 24/04/2022 23:06

Another one who couldn’t care less about Matthew and is glad he is gone.
new F1 Doc (no idea what her name is) always looks like she is advertising “how not to do eye makeup”, it’s soooo bad.

casualty has this recurring trope where the ambulances always arrive long before the fire brigade, which seems more than a little unreasonable

Adi, who wants to be a daddy - not bothered about him as a character, so not invested in the storyline, which all seemed contrived.

there are too many characters just rammed in - new F1, Matthew and Adi. It’s just so incredibly bitty and disjointed, with storylines just left hanging in mid air, like Faith and her one-night stand.

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/04/2022 21:45

Finally seen

I’ve just caught up…

What was all that crap with the pregnancy storyline? As if they would have taken her for a scan, saw there was no heartbeat, managed to hide that fact from the mother (despite the fact a second opinion would also have been sought), not then telling the mother there was no heartbeat and wheeling her back down to A&E and then she was casually told there hadn’t been a heartbeat whilst she’s just sitting in her cubicle.

It’s ridiculous things like this that really annoy me about Casualty - there’s just no attempt to even make things believable.

I loved Stevie and Dylan!!!

Rash’s crush came across as ridiculous - I mean how old is he supposed to be? He acted like a 10 year old boy would if he bumped into his crush in the school cafeteria.

Im rapidly losing interest in the show.

purpleme12 · 28/04/2022 10:08

I can skim over the unrealistic stuff that doesn't get to me. I think it must be the characters who are making the show downhill. Possibly storylines too?
I just don't understand it cos I don't think it used to be like this

purpleme12 · 28/04/2022 10:09

I feel like we need something we can get invested in

purpleme12 · 28/04/2022 15:01

Does anyone remember there used to be a nice relatives room where people went who were upset etc? Now it's all done in the open in the waiting room!! 🤣 So strange

Blondeshavemorefun · 28/04/2022 15:03

Exactly. Casualty used to be good

exciting to wait a week

Why, why WHY bring back Ollie - one of the worse Casualty characters ever. David can naff off too.

impossibletoday · 30/04/2022 21:39

TrashyPanda · 30/04/2022 22:10

A pair of boring episodes.

I think it’s because they were centred around the “stars” rather than the actual casualties. Why do a story about human trafficking that basically ignores the actual folk being trafficked? They were just ciphers and that is highly insulting.

could anyone keep count of the number of times Ethan cried in the second one? Is he the worlds most boring man? What did the feisty cop seein him?

best bit - poster of Dylan above the recycling bins.

Luculentus · 01/05/2022 08:26

I wish they wouldn't do that thing of retrofitting the facts. It would have made much more sense if they'd introduced the cop a few weeks ago rather than having her suddenly turning up out of the blue for the sake of one episode.

Spidey66 · 01/05/2022 09:56

I missed the Dylan photo! I had a dream about Dylan last night. He was trying to administer a general anaesthetic but it wasn't working. He asked me to count to ten (usually by 5 you're under the GA) but I was getting to 100 and still awake. I told him it was because I'm a fat cow and needed more.

Yeah the episodes tonight were dull.

So true.

are all Ian centred eps going to be flashback central? There was that really peculiar ep about him and his partner a while ago.

MadisonAvenue · 01/05/2022 10:02

Have I missed what happened between David and Rosa? I can’t remember if they’re still together or not, and then Ollie said something last night about David pushing him away and said he’d done it with Rosa too.

Dontlickthetrolley · 01/05/2022 10:51

I didn't think the first episode was too bad and thought the second episode would be Ian going on a quest to find the missing girl. However the second episode, what was the point????

TrashyPanda · 01/05/2022 12:44

As far as I remember, the David/Rosa thing has been left hanging in the air.

what was the point of the second ep?
To show Ethan as an actor who can cry at the drop of a hat. I’ve never seen any adult tv character (of either sex) cry as much as Ethan. It is sooooo predictable - any hint of anything emotional, and the tears spring to his eyes.

Mumdiva99 · 01/05/2022 20:53

I've just watched the first episode and started 2....come on to say Ethan dating already? Didn't his girlfriend/fiancee/mum of his child die less than 6 months ago...... since the he's messed up being a dad, given up the baby, got the baby back, is just starting to function somewhat normally and he's dating again.....honestly.

For those asking who the young girl was a couple of episodes ago - I think she was in Dodger....the cbbc drama....which was actually better than Casualty!!! Still....I am still invested in it...so back I go.

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 01/05/2022 21:39

I watched the first episode and found it relatively exciting, absorbing, and I usually enjoy Iain’s storylines so all good despite the return of the appallingly dreary Ollie. Then I watched about five minutes of the second one - got to the point where Ethan announced he was going to the little boys room and it was just - no. Just never give him any storylines ever again and keep us all happy.

Mumdiva99 · 01/05/2022 21:53

Phew.....thank goodness he didn't move on. I can watch next week now safe in the knowledge the story writers might have some poor decisions... ..but not on this one. Lol.
