it's turning in to The Doctors Bunch, its all 'Marcia, Marcia, Marica'

and nice to see Helen being cheeky/playful with Greg.

[iris]

yep! more helen and greg please!!! and please please please don't let helen fall for this arrogant guy jimmi. he's not good enough for her and she's already had enough disastrous relationships. (i'm afraid it is too late, though... have you seen the look she gave him when he wasn't looking?)

p.s. he wasn't convincing as an emphatic doc also. sorry script writers, if he goes on acting so horribly you would have to come up with better scripts for him (can't you send him somewhere far and bring back jude? even ollie was better!)

[Katrina]

Helen and Jimmi is a deffo no-no. Jimmi and any woman in a deffo no-no.

more cute Helen and Greg though ;D that was sweet.

[PamA]

Didn't actually see this episode but am I missing something - Greg and Helen?? Not in a relationship surely!!

[iris]

noooooooo!!!! though it could be nice.... i'd say, why not? maybe she'll get new ideas from him!

no, they were just teasing each other in a very friendly and cute way about jimmi: seems both of them kinda fancy him... but don't admit - so the other can see and point that out, but can't see themselves behaving just the same...

i have it taped, if you want....

just watched this episode over again, did anyone else think Corrinne looked different? or should i start actually wearing my glasses?

hm Helen and Greg as a couple, not sure about that idea but it's a heck of a lot better than Helen and Jimmi

[iris]

different? in which way?
i'll watch again sometime tomorrow but i need to know what to look at....

[Katrina]

her hair looked different, more blonder and more thinner (is that a word?)

[iris]

you're right, just watched it again (wanted to show wife the helen/greg scene - it is still brilliant even when you know the lines...) and she said that corrinne's hair is indeed much blonder and differently shaped. but i must say, i wouldn't have noticed it hadn't you pointed that out earlier.

maybe corrinne had a different haircolour during the summer-break - she was working on another project, we know, as this was the reason they made helen have the breakdown in the first place. so maybe after returning to docs they couldn't be too precise with helen's haircolour (or maybe they wanted to refresh things a bit).

p.s. i just hope that she would not behave blonder than she is.... hair colour is one thing but being blonde is, ermmmmmm, dangerous.... especially in the presence of alcohol.....
