Hi,

Just wondering if anyone saw the episode of 'No Angels' on channel 4 on Tuesday evening. Towards the end of the episode one of the characters (a doctor) was acting as though he was carrying out OCD rituals.

One scene showed him having a meal, he picked up his fork and knife, changed them around 2 or 3 times, and then used his small fork to eat his peas individually while counting them at the same time.

Next scene showed him treating a patient where had to inject someone and do a quick operation, he couldnt do it properly because the counting rituals were getting in the way, he was trying to count the patients ribs. He started calling the patient fat and said he couldnt inject him becuase the patient had to much skin and fat. He eventually lost it and ran out of the ward crying hes too fat, etc. Turned out the doctor had failed med school and was impersonating a doctor, as they put it, 'he went crazy, a fruitloop'.

They portraited the character quite negatively I found, and said he had a personality disorder and didnt mention OCD.

Anyone else saw this?

cheers,

Stuart :thumbup:
