Hi, everyone!
I'm new to Doctors and have been catching up with various episodes.
My favourite characters are Ruhma, Emma and Jimmi.
I see the new series returns on Monday and hope I can make some contributions to the board.
Thanks.
Yay, fresh meat!
Welcome to the board, staggsy. I think anyone who frequents some of the other UK soap boards will be familiar with you. We look forward to your contributions here.
Thanks, Darkshines 😃
shareWho are your fave characters at the moment, Darkshines? I see you've been watching the show for a lot of years!
shareYes, I've been watching the show for a while now - since 2004 I think. I was just perusing some old eps on youtube and Jimmi's virtually a young lad, wowsers!
Most on this board know I'm a big fan of Mrs Tembe. She's been my absolute favourite character from when she first started at the surgery. I also like Al... when he's not being a total pain in the whatsit, anyway! Erm, I like Daniel (for the handsome points but he's also great in comic moments). Although she's often quite loud, I do like Karen (or Gobby Hollins as she's affectionately called by some, hehe).
It's good that the Doctors cast is usually made up of a mostly likeable bunch of characters. Any which are especially nasty don't tend to remain for long.
Welcome, staggerstags, or staggsy, is it? We're a pretty friendly bunch here and don't take Doctors too seriously though there are occasionally some properly thought -provoking storylines....
shareThank you very much, MumsyH! I used to dip in and out of this board when I started watching Doctors and indeed one of the first things that struck me about it was how very well everybody got on with each other!
One of the things I enjoy about the show is the mixture of light entertainment, humour and, as you say, the more thought-provoking stuff.
I'm absolutely loving YouTube because there are a lot of older episodes I can watch, which is great fun.
Once again, thank you for your welcome.
(oh call me anything, MumsyH, any old variation will do, thank you!)
Hi, staggerstags! Nice to have you as a new regular board poster :)
This board isn't always overly-active, but it's my favourite board when it is as I feel you can say what you want about the show without being judged. There are so many people on some of the other boards (especially Eastenders) that'll just jump down your throat for no reason.
Doctors is my favourite soap (which my workmates give me some stick for!) and it really is nice to be in the company of people on here who have some intelligent input :D
Hey there, ballroom_babe! Thank you for your welcome!
I'm really enjoying the show - the current episodes and also some of those on YouTube. At the moment I'm in the middle of a series of episodes from January 2010 where Doctor Jimmi gets abducted and is held captive by this really weird man and woman. You may remember it? It's a really good, if sometimes creepy, story line, but huge fun!
Hmm, some of the other boards are indeed more like bear pits, aren't they!!!
Good on you that this show is your favourite soap - I just wish I'd come to it sooner!
Cheers, ballroom_babe :)
