A bit off topic but does anyone know if hurricane Sandy has or will effect where SJP lives? I hope not! Hope she is safe.

That's good to hear, just hope the storm doesn't shift! Terrible destruction it has caused. Over 121 deaths! Many stranded! At times like these I'm glad I live in the UK.

Anyway, I'll catch you all in a week's time. Look forward to reading your comments.

I agree. A massive no to Luc and Chrissie or Luc and anyone else for that matter! He can't be happy with anyone but Eddie

Kars,
That is so true, in JM's Holby tv interview, when discussing his role with SJP, he mentioned that the Luc and Eddi should either be together or on their own. It fits in wiith their characteristic traits.

I really dont think they will give luc another luv interest. He only in luv with eddi. Plus it took him 8mths for him to kiss eddi so i really cant see him sleeping with anyone at holby. Just dont fit & hes not a lady man or a fast mover is he? Smooth operator he is not..

I've just caught up on last night’s episode and like some of you guys I found it a bit boring, but I didn't watch it thinking I'd enjoy it. I really missed Eddie and Luc on AAU, it just isn’t the same. I think once Luc is back I'll be a bit more positive. As for the new CT1 I don't really like her, she’s annoying. I think they should have waited before having someone new on AAU. It would have given us time to enjoy the existing characters on there. Moving Chrissie and Serena was enough for now imo. We know where we stand with them. And if she's moving to Keller what was the point in putting her on AAU in the first place? With regards to Luc and the CT1 and how they will work together it’s a bit early to tell and it very much depends on his frame of mind when he returns and if she’s even there obviously. I think he'll come back just wanting to get on with his job, making new friends will not be at the top of his agenda. He needs some good patient stories and that’s it. If there is an interesting one, that could lead him to an old professor. Having said that, he is a good one to learn from. I liked Michael and Serena's battle and that’s something to look forward too. Chrissie let’s just say I'm indifferent but I liked the familiarity of her if that makes sense.

Keller - The new doctor was fine, nothing to like or dislike. Well done Chantelle. I love Malik, more of him to make me smile, I need it.

Darwin - Love Jac, can't see a future for her and Johnny, not enough chemistry. They have served their purpose for each other and it doesn't seem they can take it to the next level.

As for the hospital politics to a degree it will make good TV but not if everyone is doing it. One of the reasons I liked HC was because people were actually nice to each other. AAU was like a big happy family and I think it will be a shame if we only get to see people battling with each other. Looks like the friendliest ward for now might be Keller, now that Serena has gone!

Agree. Luc really doesn't strike me as the one night stand person. For me that idea can't work.

Definitely The thought of him trying to be smooth has made me laugh
This is going to take Luc a long time to get over. All the things that made him not want to get into a relationship has happened. He didn't want to fall in love beacuse it meant he had lost control and he wanted to protect himself from being hurt. He was scared he'd be left and he has been. Any chance of anyone trying to get close to him and he'd be running He'll be going for the simple life, work and research.

It will be interesting to see what they do with Luc because its not really in his nature to even stayat Holby. When Eddie was there yes, but now she's gone. And given everything thats happened it would seem in character to just up and go. So I look forward to seeing how they tackle all this.

I dont mind the new ct1 shes bit annoying yes but i like her in a weird way. I dont see her as eddi replacement at all really to differ jobs roles personalitys. dont think she even work with luc much if she moves to keller. Plus i think dhe be that annoying little sis role to sacha/luc. Luc wouldnt go for her to bouncy happy & childlike. Total opposite to eddi in fact.

I agree with you. She didn't really remind me of Eddie and I don't think there will be much contact between her and Luc as she is moving. She wasn't a replacement but maybe they just wanted to bring someone new in to focus on. Not sure why they did it tbh Actually, thinking about it, it was the perfect place to get to see what she would be like!

Lets face it they don't like happy endings. The only two that I see them keeping together/wanting to be together is Ollie and Tara and she's going to die so I guess that doesn't count either.

Not watched the ep just wasn't bothered at all and having just read all your post am not sure if I should bother by the sounds of it was a boring ep and Aau was empty

Can't believe it's been over a week since Eddi left trying to stay positive it's one week closer to luc being back on screen and a possibly Eddi return but it's not happening holby ruined themselves for me

@Sickehed,
If you want to watch it, watch it on fast foward, thats what I do if I just want to get the jist of it and not spend a full hour watching it. Next week's episode should have abit more tension as Hanssen decides to do ' a Luc'.

Another thing I don't understand about Holby is, the new doc on Keller, he's not even in the next episode, so if we wanted to know how it went with him and Chantelle, we will never know. Whats' the point in having hese semi-permanant characters ? We don't get to know them in depth, so we don't really care for them. Do they really work, imho, not really.

I completly agree. Holby always does this. Write two characters off for a drink and then we exect the outcome in the next episode, but usually they're never in it! Like Luc and Eddi first kiss, nothing for two weeks after! They always seem to abandon characters, To them, I think they think of it as only being 2 scripts, but I mean for us that is actually 3 weeks of waiting!!

Cast list up for November 13th. Definatly no Luc and the new Dr from Keller isn't in this one either!

Eddi left: October 23rd, Def wont see Luc until at least November 20th. Ridiculous!! This also means when he does come back onscreen we are going to see one of those sad clips of her goodbye in the 'Previously on holby' bit and that'll just put me in a bad mood before the ep...

EDIT:: Apparently this new Dr on keller is only in 4 episodes anyway....guess he breaks chantelles heart

Well, I've just re watched her leaving episode and you know what. Im STILL confused.

"Ok, you go and then you come back..."
"I've got to go"


WHY?!? She does not in anyway not need to come back. If anything they've just pointed out she clearly needs him to function!!

I love what the writers have done with his pair, But I just cant help but feel they failed on all fronts with her exit reasoning. It wasn't clear and I really dont think I've missed anything or any underlying meanings....but cant help but feel I must have!?!

I get that she needed to be away from Holby to get better, but why him?! Saying she needs to be away from him has now just contradicted the whole field episode....

...Maybe it was suggesting she relied on him completely and to get better she shouldn't be, else she'd spend her whole life depending on him? What if he left again etc. But if that is the case...still, very poor reasoning! She had him. He wasn't going anywhere. She was getting over the drugs. It was practically perfect...

Haha. Whats the point? What are they doing?

I don't understand it either. All they had to do was not let them get back together in the first place then it would have been more consistent. Its clear to me that she needed Luc. Isn't the whole point of them is that they really need each other. The only thing she didn't need was to be back at work and he even offered to take 6mths off to deal with that. Also, I remember JM saying in the interview that she became dependent on him but I didn't really get that impression. Maybe thats what they wanted it to seem like. For me that didn't work if anything she was trying not to be too dependent on him and to just get on with it.

I'm already in a bad mood about it tbh I just don't get it. Why is he taking so long to get back to work? When is the Christmas stuff for him? Before, on or after? I've kinda had enough of it. I'm really disappointed in general. The only reason I can give for the lack of consistency is that they wanted us to see how much she loved Luc. And to leave it open.

This may seem like a stupid question but are we meant to believe she had drug problems before? Someone pointed that out to me today and I can't watch the episode again to see.
