Oh Rox, how do you do it? I can't even watch anything like Animal Hospital....I get so upset. It somehow seems worse with animals for some reason. (same with children)

I wouldn't mind watching repeats of them Joy. I should think they would be interesting to watch.

Muffy, I love the 1907 one, for some stupid reason didn't bother watching it the first time round and then discovered it on iplayer. Was watching the one with the Scarlet Fever last night but had to cover my eyes when there was an operation on someone's brain.

Must admit, I somehow got addicted to Holby City without realising lol

I watch the 1907 one........and I cringe......

I watch it for the historical detail.......not the blood and guts lol.......Don't find the modern ones interesting enough xx

and casualty 1907/9 etc...... do the same as me and put your hand over your eyes when they do any operations or show any blood?

I love the storylines in Holby and Casualty 1907/9 (Not so keen on Casualty for some reason) but wish for the good old days when you didn't really see anything that was happening during the operations.
