    Surgery in the woods? Is that what we're reduced to?

    Harney has a lot to answer for.

    Anyone else hear the news and picture Dr Nick leaving the theatre shouting "Good news, the operation was a complete success". Nope? Just me then.

    Delighted to hear, cheers - and here's hoping there will be no further what could be called "serious complications" to contend with.

    Great news. Genuinely brought a smile to my face.

    But lets all remember to keep on caring for them even if they end up on gear, conceive out of wedlock; find themselves unemployed, marry a traveler; end up driving a taxi or working in the public service. :P

    I think it was covered in the last thread, you're not allowed to hear something and immediately think of something funny.

    Don't let it happen again.

    That's brilliant.

    Also, in before the mandatory curmudgeonly posts asking why this story is so deserving of coverage, what with all the stuff going on in the world... and stuff.

    Double yay.

    OK, let's not start an argument about PS workers here or in the UK.

    They did a great job, thank God!

    Yeah, let's hope there's not too much high-horse mounting, personal abuse, assumptions about people's parental status...

    I couldn't help thinking of Bart and Hugo... And the scene where Dr Hibbert is giving the conjoined guys a rundown on the surgical procedure, when they're suddenly separated nicely by the Monorail anchor. :D
