I think the age difference is just about right. I reckon she will turn out to be his daughter OR she reminds him of a daughter that he lost. Just got this feeling Mona, but I may be wrong. We'll see. I thought last night was really good.

Yep, I reckon where we've all been wondering whether they were going to be an item, it will be revealed she's his kid.

I know tv series play around a lot with actors'/characters' ages but Laila Rouass is less than 11 years younger than Guy Henry. I'd find her being his child very difficult to accept. It is possible that he's the father of her first child though (she does have two doesn't she?)

I don't believe she's his daughter. He's not old enough IMO. I would say there's only a 10 year age difference there.

It doesn't seem to have panned out that way though, sadly.

Having watched the behind-the-scenes video for the Casualty fire this weekend and seeing how huge it is (explosions and everything!) I think it would be pretty insulting if it isn't mentioned in Holby City on Tuesday.

Yeah I know what you mean. I think it's been set up for us to believe he was infatuated with her. Last night also remember when she mentioned that her husband could be jealous and he said that banality didn't deserve an answer or something like that. Perhaps he found it repugnant that she could think that with being his daughter. I love his character and just caught a further glimpse of him suggesting that he's closer to her in a different way other than attraction. Maybe she's the daughter he never had which is why he pins such high hopes on here. I'm sticking with my gut instincts though.

we don't know though Kitty. I would put him at about 50 and she at 30 or at least 35 and he could be mid 50s?

[monalisa62003]

i think if she was the daughter he never had it would be a let down. its been built up to be something huge so its gotta be a real connection there surely? something they both know about

we see this quite often though don't we on different programmes and think there's no way that's a realistic age difference. Look at Old Mo in Eastenders. She's supposed to be Charlie's Motherinlaw!! They look the same age to me. Dunno guys, I could be wrong. If I am, maybe you're right, there is something in there that he's related somehow?

Yes, we kind of do from the things they have said. He hasn't been in medicine 15 years or more than her.

Yeah, think there's been some explaination around she working with him and him being her mentor. He does wrap her up in cotton wool though so could be a number of reasons for that. Just thought that last night she talked to him really disrespectfully and she got away with it more than ever. My thoughts keep going back to the bird that he healed and finally let free. Sorry, got my philosophical head on. Maybe there's a message in the he and Jac thing as well that he was so besotted by his career and let the best thing go that happened to him partner/kid which may explain why he always reminds Sahira that work comes first.

It was brill. Better than last week's boring one. Good writers can turn their hand to any script/genre I suppose. Nite all - been a long day.

never knew she wrote for holby

The episode last night was a great one. First one for ages that I've actually been hooked watching. Usually I get a bit sidetracked and use the laptop or something. Loved it.

lauren's eps are usually like that she's brilliant at keeping your attention

hansan is so jealous of sahira's husband!

[hayley_s2915]

My favourite episode so far this series has been Devil in the Detail. Martha Hillier wrote it and she also wrote China in Your Hands and Snow Queens which are my personal favourites from series 13. Still enjoyed last nights episode. I don't think Hanssen's in love with Sahira. He cares and respects her but I don't think it's love.

what about all the looks then ?

I just love his insults to people, so funny and so well delivered.

The counsellor woman looked familiar, she's been in the Bill [like so many actors that pass through Holby] but she was also in Holby back in 2008 in an episode that featured Chantelle as a school girl

Laila Rouass is 40 and Guy Henry is 51 - Guy Henry has also said that it's unrequited love from Hanssen's side so I really do not believe Sahira is anything but "the one who got away".

[izmo]

Well. According to that fire fighter, the whole of the emergency department is destroyed. Half the ceiling collapsed, if this doesnt get a mention on holby next week then I don't know what I'll do, I was surprised sahira wasn't out there fighting the fire, considering her obsession with saving the day

Good. Haven't read the link, don't know why or care. For me he brought nothing to the show. If he just stopped appearing, it would be weeks or even months before I realised he wasn't there anymore.
