I found the scenes with Mandana quite funny actually ;D Jilly, so did I! It was just funny seeing her play such a rules and regulations character. I was particularly amused at her checking the curtains for grime!!! In the 2nd part when the sick lady says He's not a doctor regarding her son. And Mandana to the real doctor I hope you know how badly you've let this dept down and walks away.lol She's always threatening the surgeon of closing down the dept everytime if he goes to check any patient At the end Charlie Bugger the inspection ;D

hi i'm new to this site, will you be putting clips of mandana's role in casualty in your filmography section ? i've been trying to download the whole episode using the link on page2 of this thread but have been unable to download it i'm obviously doing something wrong! this is a fantastic site i only recently discovered you, i have been an MJ fan for a long time. Hey, nice to see a new name! I'm not sure which link you're trying to upload, so I don't know how to help you. But I will tell you I'm getting on RomanMachine's case about chopping up the episode into smaller clips to put on YouTube and Daily Motion. She's going to do that tomorrow, so we'll have them up on by the weekend. (She's going home to Oklahoma on Saturday, so I've got to light a fire under her to get it done tomorrow! ) I'm glad you enjoy the site and I'm happy you found it! One thing I will mention- we are on a free server, which means it can (and does!) act up more than a few times. Sometimes pages take forever to load or don't load completely. We don't really have the $ or the time to move all the pages to a new server at the moment. We just ask that you be patient. Above all else, enjoy and please feel free to post!

How did you like the touches of grey in her hair? I actually liked it. Nice to see women who aren't afraid of their age and she looks great. Me too. I thought it was very chic and, despite the grey, she had barely aged IMO. I half expected her to bellow 'I am the system' at some point! What's most enjoyable about this site is that it's a Mandana site where we actually discuss Mandana

And she plays the administrative type very well!!

Slightly off topic but this is something I have wondered about. This is a screen shot from Mandana's 2nd appearance in Doctors. Something has always struck me as 'not quite right' about this photo Is it just me or does it look like Stephen Hartley's (Dr Ford) head has been cleverly superimposed? Or is it the hands that make it look odd? At the time I can remember thinking why not just have an easily staged photo of the characters grinning at the camera rather than a wedding shot that would require full costumes.

After seeing the photo closely I noticed there's some awkwardness regarding the hands. And the head-Isn't the actor much taller than Mandana? He's 6' but his face is lower than Mandana's also her shoulder is slightly above his. Her dress is nice

Her dress is nice The hands are especially odd and Steven Hartley was taller in their scenes together (despite MJ wearing heeled boots). Also, look at the expression on his face! Most odd for a 'staged' wedding photo. Everything about him looks slightly squashed, if that makes sense, compared to his physique on camera

Maybe he's barefoot. And quite a random observation, but I like the fact she keeps her fingernails short. A lot of actresses go for the French manicure look, or worse, the talons!!

Maybe he's barefoot. Well maybe he stood on a wasp - which might explain his glum expression Completely off topic. Who the hell updates Mandana's wikipedia page? It is awful. Badly phrased and looks like whoever just goes on and adds stuff without much thought for what was posted before. There is no mention of where she trained and her roles are written in some ad hoc fashion, instead of a proper chronological list as other performers have. Surely we could do a better job

Even if it means just taking her imdb.com filmography and pasting it in.

Even if it means just taking her imdb.com filmography and pasting it in. I just think she deserves better. There doesn't seem to be any care or thought put into how the whole think is structured and, as you say, the last couple of roles have just been copied and pasted. It actually says her last work was a commercial and then lists two new roles There is not even a photo. No mention of theatre work or training. It's not chronological. But it mentions Simone Lahbib (strangely the reverse is not true despite my suspicion that their wiki biographies are updated by the same source) Most importantly there is no external link to Mandana FC.

Ditto to the above post. Revamp the whole thing and that includes removing all references to her co-stars. Also don't forget to add the MJFC website. ;D
