Best show on the tele, shed a tear or two about the wee one with thalidomide

[woofgang]

But it wasn't.....

[Bobbisox1]

No, as it turned out :0)

[barry1010]

I knew it wasn't thalidomide because the current CTMW year is 1966 - thalidomide was banned in 1961. The topic was very well covered in a previous series.
The effects of radiation is going to be good running topic this series.

I haven't watched the new series yet but last series I found it getting a bit too sappy. I will watch it though, its escapism if nothing else.

Only three births last night, APG :D And a shock of nuns' knees on show

[Bobbisox1]

The new private doctor reminded me of Max Headroom from Red Dwarf :0/

[barry1010]

Yes! Max Headroom, ha ha. He's a bit of a sleaze but I did like him in The Last Post. Shame that series was cancelled

[Ellipsis]

Max Headroom wasn't on Red Dwarf.

You may mean Max Headroom, or you may mean Kryten ...

[barry1010]

Good to see Olly Rix in it, too. I liked him in WPC 56.

[pastafreak]

M...m...m...maxheadroom!

[barry1010]

I did find Max Headroom funny at the time. Not so much now

[lankeela]

I must be one of the few who can't stand this programme - it is so predictable and characters/plots sterotyped. I saw the original one with the thalidomide baby and the father's attitude then the nurse leaving it to do near an open window - and all the other stories are very predictable.

*die not do

[Bobbisox1]

That’s him, , that doctor looked just like him

[pixie374]

Me too, lankeela. I started it, but got bored quickly. I have just now started from the beginning, so will give it another go.
