    at least they are developing her now

    I wish that they would develop her right off our screens.
    Loathe the character.
    Considering that I haven't particularly enjoyed the Britney/Linda storyline, or the relationship between Scarlett and Lloyd, I actually liked this episode a lot. The David Blackstock character was suitably creepy and I thought the patient storylines had a bit more depth than is sometimes evident.

    I've always liked Dylan's character and so his presence in this episode definitely added some lighter moments and I even managed to guess the whole situation with the Sickle Cell Patient just as Dylan diagnosed him!

    Lenny's exit was also nicely done, although it's a shame that they haven't been able to do more with the character.

    I was more bored than a bored thing with this episode.
    Dislike Linda, hate the Britney storyline and not keen on the whole Scarlett/Lloyd thing.
    If those 3 characters worked in my A&E dept they would all have been disciplined at least once already for not working when they are at work! I know it's a drama and the writers think we want to see storylines around the main characters but this viewer is sick of it

    Saturday 30 June
    8.50-9.40pm BBC ONE

    As Sam prepares to return to the army, new nurse Fletch joins the ED team in Casualty.

    Sam has high hopes of returning to Afghanistan, but when she falters during a training exercise she is forced to question whether she will ever be ready to face a war zone again.

    On her way home she comes across Captain Morrison, a former army colleague, who is slumped in a crashed vehicle. Suspecting that he has had an epileptic fit she is torn over whether she should tell the army the truth of her suspicions, which could end his military career.

    Meanwhile Fletch is making a favourable impression with everyone - except for Lloyd. But they are forced to work together to help Amy, whose initial joy at discovering she is pregnant turns to horror when the true diagnosis is made.

    Altho I do like the actor, I'm not looking forward to him either. I can imagine the execs sitting around a table trying to come up with the character after having already decided he'd be called Fletch.

    Completely agree with you. Wilkinshaw was toe-curlingly awful in Waterloo Road - a combination of bad writing and unconvincing acting. Wasn't he drafted in as a last minute replacement on WR because Paul Nicholls dropped out?

    She'd still need time of to film it? I doubt it only took a day or so..

    'Do The Right Thing'

    Airs Saturday, Jul 7 2012 at 20:50

    Newly released from prison and determined to turn his life around, Wesley is devastated to discover that his wife Faith still dealing drugs. When police are alerted to a violent argument at Wesley's home, they come prepared for trouble and end up using a stun gun on Wesley, not realising that Faith has already given him a blow to the head.

    When Wesley suffers serious complications in the ED, Jordan and the team question the police involvement, straining relations between Jordan and his police officer partner Yvonne.

    Meanwhile, Dylan and Sam are still at loggerheads, with Dylan refusing to sign the divorce papers if Sam persists in her plan to stay at Holby.

    Their tensions reach a dangerous pitch and almost threaten the survival of a teenager, who is implicated in the persecution of a vulnerable man living on the estate.

    Slightly OT but I've started watching the 2009 episodes of Casualty on Watch. Although not exactly classic, they've been really watchable and there are some very decent episodes in that series. I'm starting to appreciate it better the second time round.

    Yep, I've been catching them for a few weeks. Great to see these episodes again. :)

    Indeed. I thought I'd hate watching these episodes again but I'm really liking it, despite the fact it's quite soapy sometimes.

    It's great to have Casualty and The Bill on Watch so I can record them and watch them in the evenings.
