I loved my holiday but I'm not much of a traveller.

I don't want to create another thread so will add it here. I have to say I like the fact Derek's back, Patrick needs a friend and he has strong links to the Beales and Fowlers. I wouldn't mind if he stuck around a bit longer than planned.

Yes, I don't mind Derek either, shame he's only in it for a few eps leading up to Christmas. Don't think we've had a Martin/Derek scene yet have we?

Which isn't surprising, isn't that why he returned?

I like him he fits right in, I hope they bring him back,

Theres a guy appearing next week called Mr Akroyd. Apparently the character has appeared four times before, anyone remember him?

Mr Akroyd the Headteacher??.

He's the headteacher of Walford Primary. I think the last time he was in it was when Tiffany was smuggling hash cakes into school.

Your correct

Illegal or not, helping a 90 something year old woman to die is hardly anything immoral. It won't too long before humans are appalled at the way we let people suffer. Drugs don't make up for an abysmal quality of life at the end.

I get you may not have been serious, but I hate that anything in that realm can be called killing or murder or whatnot When I say "kill" i mean in the criminal sense.

Dot being referred as a criminal mastermind is tongue in cheek.

After seeing several family members suffer in real life, I'm all for a time where medically trained staff can assist those who are suffering.

But that's a topic for a whole different thread.

On the 19 December we have a DC Cole played by Victor Gardener. Apparently he was in Hollyoaks for awhile playing someone called Rick Spencer.

Unsurprisingly, Lees call centre colleagues are in Mondays ep and Oz appears on Tuesday too. Denise's dishy Dane appears on Thursday.

Rick was a decent enough character in Hollyoaks. IIRC, he was the first victim of the Gloved Hand Killer and left a while ago now, early January 2015 ish.

It would be funny if he shared a scene with Kathy though.
