I also like Tara, she is like a happy bunny despite having a timebomb ticking away in her head, which only Hanssen knows about. She is desperate to impress despite her condition.

I never used to be a Tara fan but I felt like for the first time last night I really connected to her character and got what she was about

I think I may actually be a fan now..

[phill363]

I think they are gearing her up to be the new sahira what with Hansons involvement in her new storyline.

That little b**** better pop an aneurysm before she gets near my Henrik!

I waited long enough to get rid of Sahara (Ya' know, dry and arid) to have her replaced by someother little s****!

haha your post made me laugh! Guy Henry is adorable and saw him in Starter for 10 the other night as a University Dr. That guy (pun intended) couldn't downplay or play trash if he tried - sheer class

Lol at also the person who talked about that silly cow's bouncing pony tail - I totally agree - so put on

Did you see him in Lost in Austin? He's really creepy in that but I still thought he was cute

And for more sheer class, have you seen him as Captain Sawyer in Colditz? Amazing. And gorgeous!

And as for Taras "Bouncing pony tail" , I think her style icon is Marcia Brady

[*Fluffy*]

BTW, I don't suppose anyone can tell me what it was that Henrik was singing?

Welcome back Clover Have been following your reviews, very funny and accurate, as always.

Regarding Tara, I don't hate her and there are times I find her funny and endearing, but there are also times she can be a bit annoying, like in this weeks episode, when she was bouncing around the place like Tigger on speed. As for her and Olly, again its a case of sometimes I can feel a connection between them and sometimes it just feels false and manufactured. Time will tell, I guess.

It was great to see Michael back (but I miss the sexy beard ) he brings new life back to AAU.

I'm agreeing with those who say Jac's one liners are classic, but for heavens sake, give the girl a proper storyline soon!!!

And Hanssen was adorable with the baby

[tenchgirl]

Dear Dr Lo - LEAVE. SOON.

I grew up in Sweden and I've never heard it before though... Also, Hanssen's pronunciation is hilarious

Thank you so much! That is absolutely lovely. I love the animation too. Reminds me of the Moomins (but that's Finish )

So is his pronunciation/accent awful then? We were talking about weather he was doing it well or not when we were watching it


"Every little troll has his secret" Awww!

His accent's truly dreadful, to be honest

Loved the review, as always

I don't dislike Tara, I just think that a platonic relationship between Ollie and Tara would have been better...

Since Sacha moved to AAU, we have lost some great scenes with him and Jac, and ergo, there is a void for another "just friends" relationship.

Tara, in my opinion, has the potential to be a great character, but considering her tumour, I would like to see her present herself with a tad more vulnerability.

On another note, cannot believe Michael left his beard in America. Grrr.

And agree with previous comments - Jac needs her own storyline

So has no-one at Holby noticed him & Tara spending 30 minutes togeather in the scanner room? Do they think the two of them are having wild sex rather than using the scanner?

BIB- I think this may genuinely be my favorite post here..I almost spat my drink out

off topic but am i the only one who keeps saying Mo Effanga instead of Mo Farah when talking to people about the olympics yesterday

I'm not getting the names mixed up, but every time the commentator said Mo Farah, I did do a double take. Kept thinking I was hearing Mo Effanga.
Then again, my hearing isn't the best. I'm notorious in my family for not listening to a word anyone says.
There goes my career in therapy...

[hatz]

Oh my dizzy days...I simply adore Jac!!

[superdooper]

Jac was great tonight, wasn't she? Very well performed by Rosie once more, going from being very cutting to then vulnerable with Elliot's stern words.

Max looks like he's going to be a bit of a character. I'm not sure fully what to make of him yet, seems like he's going to cause a bit of trouble. Sacha was adorable as ever and Chrissie always has that frustratingly bitchy edge.

I liked Tara a bit more in this episode too.

[MsWilder11]

Enjoyed tonight's ep!

Finally there's some decent Jac screen time! Her and Elliot work brilliantly together! Elliot's rant about her only being out for herself was harsh but true. I felt for her afterwards because she looked genuinely upset The thing that annoyed me about that rant though, was when Elliot said something like Mo always goes above and beyond for everyone - she's only been there two minutes!! Still unsure about the pairing with Jonny, although it felt a tad more natural tonight so I'm keeping an open mind.
As for Tara, I shuddered when she was told to shadow Jac and was peeved that Jac had to be nice to her She was around a 2 on the annoyance scale, but if she thinks she can eventually become a replica of Jac (as she hinted towards the end) then she's hugely delusional

Malick/Serena/Ric actually work quite well. I loved the "tantrum" and the way Ric and Serena just stared as Malick walked off I thought the SL with the "murderer" and his daughter started well, but went a bit OTT towards the end.

Eddi was a lot more bearable tonight. She reminded me a lot more of how she started out, although this Max guy is quite slimy so I was amazed she took to him as fast as she did.

Have to say I agree with pretty much everything said there

[CarrotCake11]

Episode was OK.

Tara Lo was tolerable because she wasn't with Ollie and she was in the background. Jac was great as usual, you could tell she was really happy inside when Elliot said they couldn't function without her. I hope she is not continuing her no strings attached relationship with Johnny.

The Malick SL did not really hold my interest.

Max seems a bit on the sneaky side, i hope there is not a love triangle on the way with eddi and luc.

[reclinewithme]

Ha ha, I LOVED it when Max totally blamed Eddi for that guy's discharge to save his own skin, then persuaded her to go for a drink with him! I liked him being mysteriously AWOL for 40 minutes, too. It's time we had a genuinely slippery character on Holby!
