BBC Doctors - Return of the Mac

[MadisonAvenue]

New thread

Is a dementia story brewing for Rosie?

I’ve decided I can catch up on the older iplayer episodes while watching live and it will make no difference to how confused I am about the plot.

No, in fact, the same storylines crop up so often, it all just merges into one .

I could add a 3rd set from UKTVplay but that might be a confusing set too far. 😂

A bit to add about him. He slept with Michelle and she thought things were going well, but he dumped her citing professional boundaries.

He's not quite a partner yet, don't think they've seen the colour of his money or signed anything, which is odd as he's ordered new equipment and no one seems to have told him he's over stepped.

He was also out of order with Kirsty and the adaptations for her in the workplace etc. then he encouraged her to update her CV and apply for other jobs, so although she benefited, the implication was that he managed her out.

He's already had to undergo workplace training with regard to LGBTQI issues and his attitude. He screwed up the certificate he got after undergoing that training.

There's probably more.

Rumours swirling of One Nation Tory MPs decamping to Lib Dems. How funny would it be if 25 go and Tories are not even the opposition.

Not sure they have enough to make the Lib Dems the official opposition but this could be funny.

Oops wrong thread. 🤦

That's raising the tone of this thread a bit there, Rafa

Blimey @RafaistheKingofClay
I agree with @Raahh , you are highering the tone a bit too much.
How about this instead?

That has lowered the tone suitably. 😂
It’s been a while for that video.

Surprised that wasn’t Raahh. Now I just have to figure out your name change and who you were before. 😂

Yay! Dogs in Hats!

There's a blast from the past!

I haven’t watched today’s yet, I’m playing catch up this week…but has anyone else seen comments on social media about the end date? It’s being said that because this three week break was abandoned the last episode will now be on November 14th rather than in December.
It looks like we’ve only got 20 episodes left ☹️

Did see that on Twitter last night. The writer of the last episode says it’s going out on 5th Dec.

That really isn't far away.

We know it's got daft storylines, we moan about it a lot. But that doesn't mean we want it to end.

And now I feel robbed of a proper Hallowe'en episode. Because Jimmi and Al dressed as Gandalf in the Icon (for barely 5 minutes) really isn't enough.

The daft storylines and questionable acting are the whole point of Doctors.

Niall Fraser (he’s the director?) has now confirmed on a Facebook group that Nov 14th is when the final episode airs 🙁

That is sad.
I've tried to post under my old (told??) name but Mumsnet won't let you on the thread if you've already commented. I suppose it's so you can't argue with yourself or back yourself up. Or something 🤔

Wow, 14 Nov - only just over a month 😢

Nooo. That’s too soon.

That’s only 20 episodes. Jimmy had better sing. And I’d like a return of gangster clowns.

That's far too soon.

I feel there is so much they need to fit in before it ends- we need to see Eve (Al's mum ) again. But we saw a picture on his sideboard, and I think that might be her 'last' appearance .

Unfortunately,the bulk of the next episodes are going to be wasted on the Graham and Luca stuff(and possibly side issues with Scarlett, who I like, but not really enough to be the 'end'). There might be a rushed storyline with Rob and Ruhma.
I'm not even fussed if we never see Sid again - but he is likely to feature because they've just bought an ultrasound.

I'd rather the last episode was Al and Jimmi, sitting on Heston's bench.

At least we seem to have seen the last of Rosie's pointless family. I hope.

Don’t know if this has been asked but if Scarlett’s flatmate woman gets all these presents does that mean the men know her address? Surely that can’t be right?
Was thinking mad stalker storyline but don’t think there’s time.
