I persevered to the end and now feel dizzy and have a headache.
What are they thinking?? It wasn't like that the last series?:mad:
I also found it hard to engage with any of the patients, as to me they'll always be Claire from Corrie, Chrissie from EE, the old drunk from Rev and the incredibly annoying Jody Somebody or other from Shameless.
If things don't improve next week, I might give it a swerve.
I tend to agree . I like the story lines but hate it when they pick such well known faces . Can't stand movies with any of the Friends cast for the same reason.
:yawn:
Was there this much conflict in the whole series ?
Oh, the very two things that put me off from the get-go. I thought my eyesight was going with the blurry focus, what's all that about?
I also agree with the point regarding well known faces, so many of them give me a headache, i don't like seeing any really. I've always had this problem, especially with Brit dramas. Apart from that it seemed boring and i don't like Nesbitt? either. Left it on in the background, family wanted to watch but paid it no heed. Oh well :yawn:
Chrissie from EE wasn't a patient though, she was a Nurse specialist
OK episode, might watch the next one to see if it keeps my attention again.
I thought the scene with the son was quite funny, (reminded me a bit of my son telling me his girlfriend was pregnant recently - they made sure I'd had a few first too). bit worried about how much red wine was being knocked back considering they were in surgery the next morning
I was hoping I would be wrong and that patient with the brain tumour would die , but no. Two surgeons turned him down , but our hero gets it done.
Best thing about it was that they've obviously fired the cameraman that filmed the first ep last week.
And there doesn't seem to be any romantic interest for Monroe, though I wonder if he and that admin lady ( the one that used to be in Eastenders) will get together.
I have to say I enjoyed it, far more realistic that I had supposed .
We're convinced he's going to get together with Eastenders lady
So obvious that anaesthetist guy was going to go back to young lady Doc's place though.
I quite enjoyed it, but I probably get too 'involved' in the outcome for the patients. I was right on the edge of my chair last night when it looked like that guy wasn't going to wiggle his toes. The staff relationships can be a bit annoying (in an 'I'd like to bang their heads together' kind of way), but unfortunately they're believable too. I really like the character of the little nurse who told whatsisname to tuck his tie in
What is the matter with the chinese surgeon ( sorry dunno the name , is it Whitney ? ) She was just as responsible for sleeping with the anaesthetist as he was , so why the rudeness..
Funny sort of set up where all the staff end up at Monroe's place, surgeons , admin , nurses , porter , to play cards and knock back wine, but though I think it unlikely that they would all mix socially it may be that those in that sort of stressful job do feel the need to relax together.
The amount of people from DS watching this has kinda dwindled a bit. I still think Monroe seemingly has this seemingly midas touch with his work. I thought this might have been broken with the operation on that guy with the very caring mother, but of course super-Monroe is back to put rights his near-wrongs!
However I wasn't in to watch last Monday's episode. Just went to watch it on the ITV Player, only to discover it's not on there. Why not?
As far as I can remember, she politely told him the next morning that she thought they'd made a mistake. In a voice heavy with sarcasm, he replied with something along the lines of 'Oh, I thought it was a great thing we did and imagined we'd dip into a broom cupboard somewhere for another pop at it.' Those weren't his exact words, but it was clear he thought they'd made a mistake too, but was much more dismissive of her in saying so.
Shortly after, he decided it would be a bright idea to tell his wife about the whole thing. The 'truth' was essential to his marriage, but not to the career of his 'bit on the side', who not only happens to work with his wife - his wife is her superior. He eventually retracts this 'threat', which is when he got an earful from bit-on-the-side (I can't remember her name either, but in my defence, I've forgotten his as well
Quite honestly, I'd be p'd off in her situation too. She's clearly not high on his priorities, but as long she continues to work with his wife and enjoy her job, she'll never be able to put this 'mistake' behind her for fear that he'll decide to spill the beans and rake it up again. Looking at next week's trailer, she's probably right to feel as she does. But definitely wrong in playing a blatently obvious revenge fixture with the arrogant new registrar
It's on the ITV Player on the Sky catch up service. Strange.
Well, I have NO sympathy for her....
