    Max did not really go out with a bang. His exit was a bit 'meh' and felt rushed.

    I wish Michael Spence and Mr Hanssen had more scenes.

    What was all that stuff on Hansen's computer screen? Did he type it himself? Also didn't understand the texting bit about Jac Naylor? Sorry to be thick, can anyone help please?

    He's being sent death threats more or less.

    Jac Naylor thing was a joke...

    Agreed. He was barely in the episode. I knew it was his last and by the times we got half way through the episode I knew it was going to be weak. Shame really because there was so much potential, John Light did a great job playing Max, feel he was almost let down...

    Who is sending the threats? I got that the texts were a joke, but Jac has relationship with the Scottish guy. Oh well. Thanks anyhow. :)

    Guy Henry interview.:D

    Interesting how he says he used a prosthetic stomach in the hostage storyline...are we to assume he get injured there?

    We the audience haven't been told who is sending the threats yet and presumbably Hansenn doesn't know either. All will be revealed next week.
    Yes jac is in a relationship with Jonny (the scottish guy) but it is all quite casual and only recently common knowledge. He however cares more than he's letting on, hence Tara knowing that the way to get him back for texting her from Ollie's phone was to make him believe that Jac had met someone else. Jac and Ollie are oblivious to all of it.

    I'm able to access the interview okay. I'll have to ask the HTV mods for permission as it is their interview but if they are okay with it, I should be able to copy and paste it for you.

    Cheers kittykat, my laptop is misbehaving. I can access all the other interviews except Guy's Henry.

    All in all I thought it was a pretty good episode.
    Loved the poignant Keller story with the Down's Syndrome girl and her mother.Serena and Ric's rivalry was superb and loved Malick's quip' play nice'. He is so comical

    Liked the Jonny and Mo Banter, Tara, I still find a little irritating but she got better at the end of her scenes.

    With regards to AAU, quirky Luc was back, his van being clamped was hilarious and his banter with Eddi on the ward was back to the good old days. AAU ward was hilarious and tragic at the same time, the lab scene with Sacha was too funny with Sacha trying to give Luc a pep talk which Luc still didn't get, the plonker, but I still like him too much.
    The office scene with Michael was comical, love his quips ' who takes a hair sample without a colleague's consent ? No ! Don't answer that'. Glad to see the back of that coward Wolfi who just used Eddi and never really cared, a true sociopath. The final scene with Eddi was heartbreaking, seeing her so devastated, I really wanted Sacha to give her a grizzly bear hug.
    Finally, seeing Hanssen a little rattled with those death threat emails was interesting and George just got on my nerves. I felt like decking him.
    Overall 9/10

    Fantastic episode!!
    Glad to see the back of Max, Loved Serena and Chantelle's relationship, Ric is just amazing, Tara was good! Mo is hilarious! Felt so sorry for Hanssen, Haven't really warmed to George yet - he's extremely annoying. Missed Ollie and Jac aswell to be honest :(
    And, that final scene with Eddi, Oh my god. What an amazing actress!

    Well with Luc I completely understand why he had to leave for 3 months, the writers had no option because of the actor. But to me it just seemed a different person came back...

    why did the actor take a break ?

    Yep :rolleyes: Dont blame her to be honest..
    I think we're to assume shes taken alot more than we've actually seen!! To be fair to her painkillers are ridiculously easy to get addicted too....especially once you're in a mental state like she is! Making for a good storyline in my opinion :) Plus Sarah Jane Potts plays her disgustingly well..I was totally caught up in the last scene! :(

    Have to say, Luc was my favourite character and I really couldn't wait for this return, yet im still not at all liking him now he is back! Im going to miss Max....Yes, I know, Im probably alone on this thought... :o

    I'm so glad Michael is sticking to his guns and refusing to accept the whitewash study into Ritchie Mooney's death - he is the only one to come out of the whole debacle with his integtrity intact, imo.

    Serena was softer in that episode, and more palatable as a result. Regarding the Downs couple who were expecting a baby, this storyline was done several years ago by the excellant aussie medical drama All Saints. It was such a great programme, very similar to ER. I still miss both :cry:

    So Max is gone - I thought he was a great bad guy, I would rather he had stayed and Eddi had gone instead. I can't stand her now. :mad:

    Missed Jac, and was amused by Jonny trying desperately to pretend he didn't care when he thought she was playing around on him :D He's got it bad :D:D

    Eddi is getting on my nerves, something needs to happen to maker her less spiky!

    Shame Max didn't get totally found out and escorted out of the hospital.

    The Tara thing was a bit boring.

    I'm writing a Holby fic, so I would love to get your opinions on it. It's pretty much Eddi/Luc based, so it probably won't appeal to a lot of you, but if anything I would love to hear what you might have to say about my writing style, and whether it's all in character and so on. It's been pretty good so far review wise so I would love to hear some criticism, and where/how I could improve.

    there was a lovely 40 minutes there where it looked like Eddi might be going to Brighton :D I understand she's been let down by another man, but her unpleasantness makes it hard to sympathise

    Was a pretty good episode this week, without Jac on Darwin, Keller is favourite ward. I'm starting to really like Serena

    Is it just me or does George open his mouth much winder than he needs to when speaking :eek:

    I love how Michael Spence is always referred to as 'Michael Spence' it amuses me.

    Love, love, love Serena, not a nasty one really and has a heart, under all the lets meet targets exterior. Great banter with Ric, they do make a good team.

    Chantelle and the Dognuts, a nice little touch, and Malick getting the blame for eating them all.

    The DownsSyndrome storyline, I'm sure there was some inaccuracies over the pregnancy, I may be wrong. But provided the right mood for Keller.

    AAU, I was suspicious of that couple that came in, slow burner on the reveal of the undercover cop, more if a catalyst for the Max reveal. Max is an idiot a bad Dr, but I do like him. Luc, is Luc can't not like him, methods are sometimes wrong (hair stealing ) but he can be forgiven. Now I don't like Eddi, she is annoying, but it was clear she had become rather dependant on Max so much so she deluded herself into thinking he was good for her.

    Darwin, not really interested in the patient the Mo/Johnny mischief which later was more Tara, was amusing. Tara wasn't as irritating well she was when doing her job.

    Mr Binns, go away. Hanssen bless, he really should have told someone about the emails.
    :eek: I'm glad I missed that scene. :eek:

    I just realised he reminds me of Darren from EE :o Think it's the way he tries to be all smart in suits, yet still looks like he should be in school :D
