New year, new thread and I'm BACK aboard the Holby train!

 

Jac was on the most astounding comedic form in last week's episode. First she pronounced a patient dead only for said patient to wake up in the morgue... Jac was feeling a little panicky about telling the husband that his wife had just been re-born so she made one of the nurses do it. Then she FROZE when she realised Ric's daughter was going into labour - Chrissy asked her whether she'd taken a look downstairs and Jac looked as though she'd rather play in traffic. And then just to cap it all off Jess made her hold the baby after it was born and Jac gave birth to an entirely new facial expression which was somewhere between 'what the fuck' and 'KILL ME NOW!'. I LOVE HER.

Oh yes Frieda is a tour de force too of course, casually slipping the morgue guy a tenner to be able to practice operating on the dead bodies. Amazing.

 

The cast turnaround since I stopped watching a year ago really is HUGE. Greg, Antoine, Sahira, Hanssen, Dan and (the monumentally awful) nurse Tait have ALL arrived in my absence. Can somebody tell me what happened to my darling Linden? I've been missing that quietly beautiful face of his.

I too have recently gotten back into Holby. Mostly on the basis that I wanted to see how Laila Rouass would do, and that I hadnt watched in absolute ages.

 

Was rather dissapointed to see my 2 long-time favourites (Donna and Connie) depart though. Feels odd not having Linden, Joseph, Mark, Maria and such around. One of Holby's strengths beforehand was the near perfect cast and I'm not sure how much that applies anymore. I was less sad to notice the dreadful Lesley Ash character had gone though.

 

Frieda and Jac clearly do rule this show nowadays though. Still havent figured out what most of the newer male characters are called. They also need some new nursing staff cast presumably now aswell? Just Chrissie and Elizabeth now.

Looking at the cast list it seems that practically every character is now either a cardiothoracic surgeon or registrar which I guess is good for having these clashes of power like Jac v Sahira but I do miss the nursing side, especially Donna. Nurse Tate is definitely NOT an acceptable replacement.

Jarky; Linden DIED :(

 

Well actually I'm not :( myself, I thought he was an incredibly unlikeable and cold character.

Oh my God. Why did nobody tell me? I would've dug out my cufflinks and gone to the funeral! Oh my poor, poor Linden. I wanted he and Faye to ride off into the sunset together. Life deals a rubbish hand sometimes.

 

As for cold and unlikeable, what utter BLASPHEMY. He was reserved and shy and a FANTASTIC LOVER!

NO DONNA AND NO CONNIE? What happened to them? Shame Linden died too. ;(

 

How dreadful, it's been like two years since I watched this I think. I used to LOVE it.
