Doctors

What an appalling show that insults one's intelligence - A doctors surgery that only sees 2 patients and answers 2 phone calls - really !!!! A doctors surgery where a receptionist has a loud standing argument in Reception with a GP over her relationship - really !!! A GP surgery where a Doctor gets engaged to a receptionist after weeks of knowing her - worst story lines ever and getting worse unfortunately- get rid of Valerie Pitman - what professional practice would employ her/ tolerate her ridiculous behaviour - get a grip BBC

Set in a post apocalyptic town, the doctors spend more time out of the surgery getting involved in their patient's business. Fighting crime, family bust-ups, you name it.

The acting is generally average, bordering on the terrible sometimes.

Doctors is a long-running (somehow) BBC series and is possibly worst they have to offer. I know I'm flogging a dead horse here, but any piece of television with terrible acting, amateur camera work, absurdly clichéd story lines, and a seriously low-budget feel deserves a good slating.

I understand it's only a bit of daytime TV, something to have on in the background as you're occupied with other menial tasks, but they could've at least put a bit of effort in! I think it's time to pull the plug. Am I being too harsh? Hmm, possibly, but it really is bad. I'm sure there are worse shows out there, and this is just a harmless (but terrible) one... but a bit of effort wouldn't be missed.

This show is dire, the storylines are dire and the acting is dire. It's supposed to be set in the Midlands but the main character Nina seems to talk with the type of accent that you'd more likely find in the old black and white voice overs from the 1930s, strange compared to her days in Corination St as Les Battersby's annoying but on the side. I think she must have auditioned, was told it was for a doctors part and decided to put on the most ridiculous accent and she's been stuck with it since.

As for the doctor surgery, no wonder there's a doctor / GP crisis in this country if this show is anything to go by. They spend their day drinking tea and chatting rather than dealing with patients, of which there are very few ever in the surgery. They diagnose strangers on the street and seem to have endless numbers of walk in appointments.

It's terrible, it's like watching a slow motion car crash, you have to look and then wish you hadn't.

Damn this show for wasting Diane Keen's talents, the wonderful Diane has appeared in countless episodes of this nonsense, when she should have been gracing our screens in prime time, quality viewing.

I spent a week quite literally bed bound, and watched this show for a solid week, hoping to glimpse some kind of drama, or glimpse of reality.

What a truly awful watch, cheap, trashy, soulless TV, which surely ran out of mileage many years ago.

BBC please put this show out of its misery, clearly it costs three and nine to make an episode, but why not put the money aside for Father Brown, Mallorca Files or Shakespeare and Hathaway, shows people actually want to watch.

It's like a hideous student project.

Awful, 3/10.
