    Why does Mandy feel the need to shout at everyone?! :confused: and, do this lot actually work or see more than one patient a day?! :D

    Do they actually HAVE any patients? Any doctor appears to wander into reception and be free to see any randomer who has floated in off the streets.

    Why do these people not have to battle with a bitch of a receptionist for an appointment in 3 weeks' time like the rest of us?

    They will then drop everything to follow you to your home if they forget something. There they will spend several hours sorting out any domestic problems you have. When they leave they will give you their mobile number and tell you to call anytime.
    'Tis fantasy Doctors :D

    I missed todays, don't think I'll bother to catch up due to it being about Mandy' Freya and Cherry.

    I felt quite sad today watching Freya, knowing what will happen next week.

    What the heck have they done to Cherry?? She was never this stupid, simpering, demanding, annoying little madam that she is now. I used to like her with Simon, she was a good friend to him and she was always laughing. Now, I despair. And so, I think does Jimmi.

    And please, Mandy is the worst new character they've ever introduced. She isn't horrible or annoying. She isn't anything really and that is the problem. And her voice drives me mad.

    Sorry to be negative, I do like Doctors, but it could be doing better right now.

    That's the problem for me with Mandy too, she's just a 'nothing' character, can't take to her at all.

    And the new practice manager hasn't really taken to Freya has he? Can't say I blame him TBH. I can see all this Auntie business ending very badly for her.

    Yeah it's as if Mandy is just a 'Guest' Character.

    He hasn't but i wonder why? well....
    Next Monday Freya is involved in a HUGE House explosion and either her or kevin dies but we have to wait 3 weeks for the outcome as Doctors takes a summer break:eek:

    Very enjoyable episode i thought

    Freya...Tut..Tut..Tut why does she insist on lying all the time?
    The truth always has a habit of coming out and of course her Auntie is hardly the best person to keep secrets:D
    Is it really worth it in the end?

    The storyline with the Loan shark was quite good and im sure there's plenty up and down the country in the same position as her however Mandy should't get involved. She's only a nurse for goodness sakes.

    Howard really likes Kevin doesn't he.
    I wonder if we could find out that he's gay and likes him?

    I see Kevin is in love again:D

    Jimmi and Cherry having another argument and Karen falls off the ladder. Just another normal day at The Mill:D

    9/10:)

    I groaned when Mandy got put on the new credits as I knew she wouldn't be going anywhere soon :( (nothing against the actress but the character is so boring!)

    As to the spoiler: :eek::eek:
    one time I'd have definitely wanted Kevin to be the one who dies but now I'm not so sure, Freya's been getting on my nerves lately whereas I've quite enjoyed Kevin, especially all full of self-importance with his clipboard today :D Anyway, they might just be teasing us and neither die!

    Great to see her again wasn't it? I enjoyed her performance but do wonder where she's been since she left Corrie? She shouldn't be out of work. I'll never forget her character Violet giving birth with her tights on in the Rovers :D

    I thought 'Howard' was quite good today, the story line with Daniel and Karen is stupid... and will someone please shake some sense into Cherry?

    I'm quite glad Howard is shaking up things at the surgeries and nearly 2 weeks in and no sign of an old friend anywhere

    Ahaha that's good to hear. I have pretty much given up on Doctors. Am now at work full time so never see it in the week & cant find any time to catch up. Added to the coming 3 week break I really cant be bothered. Shame really.

    And re:spoiler for Mon 18th -(huge, so click with care)
    I think it must be Freya who is dead as Simon Rivers is still filming

    Was that Cully Barnaby as the nasty boss lady today? Nice to see she has a nice regular job rather than itinerant actor/librarian:p:D

    I think Howard is turning out to be a good egg. And he seems to have the measure of Daniel:D:D I see lots of fun ahead;)

    I do believe that Howard has a soft spot after today's story of the the Tax Man. I think he found it hard to make a decision for the right TM and when he found out the problems tried to sort it out for them. Maybe Julia left some 'Soft Heart Aura's on office chair and he has caught the bug!!
    As for Cherry she is a real and I want to give her a big shake and sort her out once and for all. Poor Jimmi must be going through hell with her at the mo.

    That James Character=Very sexy i want to see more of him:o

    Jack has got a tan on his nice 6pack:o

    Im really warming to Howard now. Really enjoyed his scenes today and he isn't going to give Daniel a free ride is he:D

    I love the whole Immie/Jack thing because they are like real brothers and sisters. Yes they argue but they love eachother really.

    8/10 :)

    Heya :) I have been viewing the thread but I've never really had much time to post more than a total of... one... time. :p



    I thought exactly this!

    I haven't enjoyed this week's episodes of Doctors. I think all of the episodes have felt a bit incomplete and unfinished, as if there should be a bit more to the story but instead you simply get the end credits. Maybe that's just me, though. Hoping for a better week next week.

    I like Howard, seems like he could be a really good character in the next few months but I thought that with Freya and yet we had no luck. :p

    Hello, welcome to the thread/forum. :)

    I agree with you, last week was pretty poor.

    Howard is alright so far though I am finding him and Daniel's quest to save money in any way they can disturbing, especially on things like latex gloves and how they say a latex glove is a latex glove. Hmmm, I think how they are made can make a difference. Some of them say suitable for medical use and some say they don't I've noticed.

    As for buying from China, well I remember a few years ago baby food ended up being contaminated and some babies died over there and I do worry in general that China cuts corners when it comes to a lot of things they produce/manufacture and I wouldn't be surprised if the powers that be here don't pick such things up enough.

    Products made in the EU often have a logo to indicate they have passed European regulations but I don't see that on all products so are all products made to that level in general?

    Has Jimmi's OCD returned? Seems very obsessed with his running.

    Just noticed that it was Craig Vye on yesterday. Don't like him as an actor - used to cringe when he was Hollyoaks.

    Anyone else astounded by Cherry and Jimmi's massive, yet virtually empty kitchen/diner? It's so big and empty you can hear their voices echo.

    Also noticed that Ben Roberts is a guest on tomorrow's episode. Used to play Ch. Insp Derek Conway in The Bill. Should be good.
