I've watched a few hospital based dramas in the past.

 

I was not taken by last night's show. I didn't warm to the characters and I don't think I really cared about the work they were doing.

 

I started flicking about 9.30 and never really watched it properly after that.

 

As for the DR's picture and 'story', maybe they're just basing the article on a picture and what they might expect. The show didn't last, surely Darius must be morose and feeling sorry for himself and wanting to drown his sorrows?

They just needed to say something - at least they recognised he was very good in it. I loved that show.

They do say that any publicity is good publicity, but someone seems to have an axe to grind in selecting

that particular photo.

I still haven't seen any pictures of Darius falling out of clubs or read any tales of him being rude to people when he's out socially.

 

What do they expect him to do if he isn't working evenings and Natasha is not with him? Sit in his hotel room and mope?

 

He's got good mates here and they're right to hang out, catch up and have some fun.

I think they just found a bad pic and put a caption to it. I don't think it was malicious - just what's done these days. They did say he looked not that he was.

Mmmm.....bet they had a good lawyer's advice there.

I'd like to see the full picture. It looks to me as if it was taken from a distance. His head doesn't seem to be drooped or floppy so I'd like to see if he was leaning against something. it doesn't look like it to me.

 

Darius usually seems aware of those taking a picture even if he's in conversation with someone else at the time.

He does tend to concentrate on talking to some one and then wouldn't notice - but that pic could have been taken at anytime. He can't never blink. I just think it unimportant.

There can be any number of rotten pictures but I hope the one on the next album will be better than Mercury's choices.

Yes, they weren't my favorites - although some were nice - a shame they weren't used.

It's a good job Booth took the GWTW photos of Darius. I felt it was very remiss of the publicity people

not to release costume photos of members of the cast.

Booth absolutely adores his boys. As does Avril. I find it very warming to see.

But then we all adore our offspring (or there is something seriously wrong).

Some more than others - and yes, that's seriously wrong.

Favouritism ? Do you mean some offspring more than others ? Or do you mean some parents more than others.

At the start of her career, 'Amy Winehouse's then boyfriend, singer Tyler James, took a tape of her songs to his

manager, Nick Godwyn, a lynchpin of Simon Fuller's 19 organisation'.

I wonder if Godwyn (Darius's manager) would have been so keen if he could have foreseen the trouble ahead.

He certainly has his hands full with Amy. But then the lure of financial gain outweighs a great deal.

ome parents more than others.

They looked after her very well. it was a shame she didn't stay with them.

I think it was poor Nick who originally asked her to go to rehab and she said NO, no, no!

 

I haven't spoken to Nick but from what I've seen, he seems to be a really nice man - avuncular!

Didn't even know she had left. But then I have little interest in her, although no-one can miss all the headlines.

Avuncular? That's how he came over, but with his responsibilities he must have had a ruthless streak.....the

iron hand in the velvet glove? The music world is of necessity a very social world, and its inmates all put

forward a sociable front, but scrape the surface.........
