lollz1986 Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 HEY, was just wondering if anyone could help with this Question Does anyone else find it weird that Ric being diabetic is never mentioned? im from the uk so is it ever mentioned in the Austrailian episodes that haven't aired here yet???? would love if someone could help thanx
TabbyCool Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 I don't think it's ever mentioned again, the scriptwriters clearly thought we'd all forget about it! It was only ever mentioned when Alf caught him injecting and thought he was on heroin or something, since then, it's been completely ignored. I actually think it's a bit bad that they would do that, in real life diabetics obviously have to watch what they eat and have regular insulin injections and other problems related to their diabetes which affect their lives, whereas Ric's diabetes was only introduced for a bit of quick drama, never to be mentioned again!
griseknoen Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 They could at least have Sally ask Ric if he has braught his insuline when he goes out. They really don`t have to do more of it then that.
c120701 Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 Exactly, I seem to remember that when Curtis had diabetes it was always mentioned.
lilaccat Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 Yea there is another thread about this somewhere and as I said on that when Curtis was diabetic Alf was always asking whether he'd has his insulin and if he should be eating/ doing something. And now that his own grandson is diabetic he doesn't seem to care.
Reo Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 It is mentioned again once in a future storyline i think in about a month,but it was very short and then its forgotten again,but im glad they did bring it up in that situation rather than ignoring it..like they seem to the rest of the time.

Foxy Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 Take a look in the spoiler section, or the Australian discussion section, as events that haven't yet broadcast in the UK cannot be disccused here.
