Steve is still annoying

faith and Dylan

I hope storylines get better. Been a bit meh recently

Was she "just" a friend from AA or more?

Someone Dylan knew from AA I think

I assumed Robyn was going to get pregnant by good old ‘Turkey blaster’ method? Obviously not if she’s injecting herself with hormones.

Wouldn’t it just be easier all round for self insemination to be done?

I know which option I would choose if I were the woman.

And the Teddy storyline was absolutely ridiculous!! I actually fast forwarded through it because it was just too stupid to watch. I know it’s only a TV show so it doesn’t have to be realistic but even that storyline was too much outside of the box to be interested in it.

Only on the first episode right now. Did not expect Charlie to be the one to prove me wrong!!!

We fast forwarded through the Teddy stuff too.
we knew he was going to get the guy out, so there was no suspense. And Teddy is such a boring character. I miss the days of Dixie and Jeff - they were brilliant characters.

Dixie and Jeff were amazing. The paramedics used to be brilliant. Just not good anymore, quite like Jan and Iain but thing Teddy and Sar ruin it - maybe if there was some character development it would help but we just seem to get the same story with them over and over.

(Have to confess, I'm not too sure what 'character development' means exactly 😀. I just assumed it means the character chances as they learn from things that happen to the character!)

Have only seen the first ep so far but Teddy’s storyline was ridiculous. I presume we were meant to see it as some kind of act of heroism but it was just foolish beyond belief, going in there having done no risk assessment, completely underprepared, very inexperienced as a paramedic full stop, never mind in that sort of situation. He should be facing a disciplinary for that, surely?

i think Teddy and Sah are just cardboard caricatures, not fully-fleshed characters. Which is why we don’t care about them.

im surprised Robyn wasn’t told to lose weight before being given hormone therapy. I know 2 couples who were going down the fertility treatment route and both women were told to lose weight before they would be considered. Neither were anything like Robyn’s size. They both conceived before the treatment began.

I miss the good old Jeff and Dixie days, and Josh before them. There used to be some great paramedics. I do like Iain and Jan though.

I cared about Teddy tonight.

But I'm just not bothered about Sah at all . There's just nothing to her, still

I am already really pissed off about what they're trying to do to Dylan

Oh no, this is leading to Dylan's exit storyline isn't it :( He hasn't really been a major character for a while though. Setting Stevie up to take over?

I haven't heard Dylan's leaving?
I know that they're trying to get rid of him but that doesn't mean they'll succeed. I'm not convinced they're going to write him out

Why do they want to get rid of him?

Only decent character. I also like Ethan and Ash but they also seem hell bent on changing their characters to the point of them being unrecognisable.

(I'm in the unusual position of really disliking David.)

I don’t like David so there’s two of us.

@AnImaginaryCat Stevie complained to the manager who she's shagging that he stole her patient from her. The manager has just decided to take against Dylan and run a campaign to get him out, probably so he can keep on Stevie's good side and get her to be clinical lead.

But who's Ash?

Rash!

Ash was meant to be Rash!

You know which character I really miss (Jeff aside , as that's a given), Zoe.

I liked Zoe too - loved her and Max's storyline. I miss Noel and Big Mac too. Can't stand this creepy new receptionist. Why on earth is he still there after catfishing Charlie?

Exactly! I absolutely love Robin and can't stand the fact that (presumably because she's fat???) they only pair her up romantically with men who are very flawed.
Why can't a handsome doctor sweep her off her feet?
The receptionist (what even is his name?) is weird and unlikeable in the extreme.

😱😱😱

Maybe it's leading to Stevie's downfall given she's shagging the manager guy. Or the manager's downfall. Stevia didn't look impressed - I think she realised she wouldn't be getting the job on her own merits but because of Manager Guy putting in a good word for her.

can't stand the fact that (presumably because she's fat???) they only pair her up romantically with men who are very flawed.

i think everyone gets paired romantically with people who are very flawed though. makes for better TV I guess.

Zoe and Max were fab. Best Casualty relationship ever. Worst was Duffy and Charlie - they were more like brother and sister , so the vibes were decidedly icky.

i liked Diane as receptionist - her sarcasm was wonderful.

a doctor from a while ago that I really liked was Lenny.

best nurses ever were Tess and Fletch. I do wish they would bring Fletch back now the Holby is gone.

please do not let Dylan leave. He is easily the best thing about Casualty.

There’s nothing left for me to watch if Dylan goes.

Please not Fletch. I found him intensely annoying.
