The Indian Doctor...BBC1.....

[trt]

I have really enjoyed this new series the last 2 weeks, and I think it should be shown in the evenings not at 2-15 in the afternoon.
Anybody know who plays the Doctors wife, I'm sure I have seen her in a soap?

She was Des's girlfriend in Coronation Street.

[Jan1957]

Haven't seen it trt but read about it and think this is her.

That's got me thinking now. Who is/was Des in Corrie?

[jackthehat]

Ha ! :o)

I didn't think it seemed right...............Dev's........a lucky escape she had, too !!

[mike11111]

That's cleared that up. Thought I was having a senior moment, although senior moments these days tend to turn into senior hours.

[jackthehat]

Although, there was a Des Barnes in Coronation Street.

But I didn't mean him, in any case............

Thanks Jack,

She was a better actress in the Indian Doc than she was in Corrie, she was so wooden.

I wish I could wake up in the morning looking like her.

Brilliant acting and script-writing, Shame it's finished.

I couldn't agree more trt.
It seemed almost criminal to hide away such a well written,directed and acted series in the afternoon!
Hopefully the BBC will realise what they have got (some hopes though) and repeat it in the evening?
