Doctors - Robs PTSD, Karen's all Me, Bears here for tea

[KilledByWitches]

Old thread filled, hope nobody minds!

Thank you! I never watched Emmerdale either (other than the air crash episodes) but thats where I recognise him from.

Sulky Sid is becoming a bit of a thing isn't he?

Sid being sulky is really quite annoying.

Is she after his garden? Or his flat?

Mr Lumsden's daughter isn't being particularly lovely is she?

The daughter in this story seems preposterous. Why do they always make career women act like heartless bitches?

The daughter is really quite rude.

Yup- she's trying to steal his garden.

Ok, so she's not wanting to steal the garden , she wants to buy it.

But I don't think he understood what she was asking.

Is Ruhma not busy?

Oh dear the women aren't lovely are they?

How could they not notice he’s so confused? It’s implausible.

There’s a women somewhere screaming for a midwife while Ruhma’s having a chat.

Ruhma is going to suggest pregnant girl helps out here isn't she?

It really is ridiculous.
How on earth can they not see he is confused, at the very least.

I hope she doesn't, that's a stupid idea. The pregnant woman will have a baby to look after and Hamish doesn't seem to want to be involved. How unscrupulous can she be to try and get the garden off of him?!

Babies need more than gardens. They don't even need gardens.

I knew Hamish would turn up before 2.15

Is that it?! Meh.

Killed it was definitely a filler episode.

And Ruhma spent more time with a man with dementia and his daughter, than the pregnant woman she was meant to be helping.

Is it Dementia week?

Ffs. Talk about an anti climax. Karen's in tomorrow's episode so hopefully someone gives her a listening ear and maybe we can get to the bottom of Sid's issues too (although he has had issues since he joined hasn't he?!). Remember when they had the life drawing classes and Emma got into a fight with Su without an E? I want daftness like that again!!

Oh god, not Su without an e! Silliness yes but I was constantly cringing with her.

The trouble with today's show was that they were trying to shoehorn a complex and distressing topic into 25 minutes. And then added baby drama along with a What's-going-on-with-Sid storyline. So it came across as a bit shallow.
Wait what am I saying - this is Doctors.

Sid needs a happy storyline, and Jimmi too actually. Just for once it would be great if they could meet a woman that wasn't absolutely batshit and be happy.
I'd even dig out a hat for that one.

Hope your am dram class went well yesterday Willowkins. I agree with you about trying to cram too much into today's episode and actually it was a bit unfair to the daughter. Caring for an adult with dementia is hard and yes she shouldn't be shouting at him but it is such a frustrating situation. Carers have it so tough, I'd rather a bit more focus on that if they want to do serious issues. I had a quick look at Digital Spy earlier, they had the same views as us about yesterday's storyline (and the rainbow one too)! The Twitter comments were similar as well

Thanks small - Amdram is one of those things I've wanted to give a try since I was a teenager (finally got round to it 45 years later ).
