Suni Bulsara

**Dr. Suni Bulsara**, portrayed by Rahul Arya, first appeared on 8 March 2023. He was introduced as the son of Nina Bulsara (Wendi Peters).

## Development

After Nina becomes a partner at the Mill Health Centre, one of her first acts is getting Suni hired as a doctor there as she feels he would be perfect to work there. Upon his hiring, it was hinted in episode descriptions that he would "ruffle feathers" amongst his new colleagues. Suni arrives on his first day in a luxury sports car which he parks in the charging port section of the car park. Scarlett Kiernan (Kia Pegg) tells him he cannot park there, but he ignores her since he wants to show off his car in a prominent location. A reluctant Scarlett gives him a tour of the building, but Suni quickly gets bored and wanders into Luca McIntyre's (Ross McLaren) nursing room where he is "favourably impressed by the sight of Luca".

Suni is bisexual and after flirting with Luca, he also flirts with Scarlett. However, Luca notices that he clams up when Nina walks in on the pair talking, and eventually learns that Suni is not out to his mother. A few weeks into his tenure, Suni was the focus of a standalone episode that saw him helping Jason Neale (Darryl Mundoma) with his mental health, as well as flashing back to see his reaction to Nina getting him a job without telling him. It touched upon his memories of his dead father when Suni hoped that he would be proud of him. Suni is shown to be insecure within his friendships and tries to impress the colleagues at the Mill by treating them to lavish meals and experiences, which Sid Vere (Ashley Rice) notices and gets annoyed by. *Metro'*s Chris Hallam noted how Suni makes a bad first impression on almost everybody at the Mill and suggested that he may be "too flash and not really cut out to be a doctor".
Belinda's Briefcase

Belinda's Briefcase is a recurring, inanimate, character in the Belinda Blinked saga. It is a travelling companion of Belinda Blumenthal. In its time with her, it has held such things as contracts, skimpy evening dresses, and complementary Steele's Pots and Pans pens (try saying *that* 5 times fast).

## Appearance

The Briefcase isn't properly described until Book 5, where it's stated that it's a snakeskin briefcase. The Porno team theorised that she got a swanky new briefcase between Books 4 and 5, but it's also possible that it's the same Briefcase she's had with her since the beginning.

## About

**Dr. Emma Reid**, portrayed by Dido Miles, made her first appearance on 2 October 2012.[81] It was first announced that Miles was to play a new regular character on her official credits in June 2012. Described as "attractive", "more than qualified", and set to "cause quite a stir" by Digital Spy, Miles's casting was confirmed on 23 September 2012. Emma is introduced as knowing Howard Bellamy (Ian Kelsey), but when she arrives, her and Howard both "clearly decide not to acknowledge that they know each other at all". Although Emma is only meant to be a temporary replacement, The Mill is suffering from staffing issues, so Howard is "forced to accept defeat", despite him not being pleased that Emma has arrived.

## Storylines

In 2016, Emma explores her sexuality by getting into a relationship with female friend Lena Baker (Josephine Butler), despite Lena being married. However, the pair split. In 2019, Emma gets into a relationship with Gareth Regan (Edward MacLiam), but when she discovers that he is a drug addict and he attempts to rape her close friend Zara Carmichael (Elisabeth Dermot Walsh), the relationship ends. Emma later begins dating colleague Jasmine Dajani (Lara Sawalha), which causes confusion for Valerie Pitman (Sarah Moyle), who is unsure about Emma's sexuality. Emma confirms that she is pansexual.[84] When Emma and Jasmine are assaulted in a homophobic attack, the pair break up. Emma opens up about the attack on a radio show with Tammy Beckworth (Amy Anderson), and after the success of her segment, Tammy offers her a regular radio show.
Kirsty Millar

**Kirsty Millar**, portrayed by Kiruna Stamell, made her first appearance on 11 January 2023. She was introduced as a receptionist at the Mill Health Centre following the dismissal of former receptionist Valerie Pitman (Sarah Moyle). In her first scene, she meets with Ruhma Carter (Bharti Patel), who she has known for years due to working with her at St. Phils Hospital. Ruhma has high praise for Kirsty, informing the staff at the Mill how experienced she is. Speaking of her first episode, *What's on TV* wrote that Kirsty would divide the existing staff due to her "forthright manner". On her BBC profile, Kirsty was described as an "organised, loving, opinionated" character that "doesn't suffer fools". It also stated that her reason for coming to the Mill was to seek a new life. *TVTimes* wrote that thirty-something Kirsty would surprise the staff; Bear Sylvester (Dex Lee) "quickly realises she isn't backwards in coming forwards" when she immediately demands a new reception desk due to her dwarfism, while Emma Reid (Dido Miles) is "thrown" when Kirsty intercepts and takes over between herself and an angry patient.

*What's on TV* also teased the imminent arrivals of her husband and son, Rich (Richard Atwill) and Ollie (Isaac Benn). Simon Timblick of *What to Watch* confirmed that Kirsty's home life would be a focal point of her first storyline in the series. She is shown to not want to be with Rich anymore and a week into her time on *Doctors*, she tells him to pack his belongings and leave. She also has difficulties with Ollie reluctantly joining the army. *Inside Soap* also hinted that Kirsty and fellow receptionist Scarlett Kiernan (Kia Pegg) would have a workplace dispute when the pair "rub each other up the wrong way". However, a friendship between the pair is eventually developed when Kirsty invites Scarlett to live with her.

Stamell appeared on the BBC topical series *Morning Live* in March 2023 to talk about her time on *Doctors*, where she said that she was grateful to be given a character backstory that did not revolve around being disabled. Presenter Gethin Jones remarked that Kirsty does not reference her dwarfism, which Stamell replied that she is thankful for. She felt that because Kirsty's family and colleagues would be used to her condition, there would be no point in talking about it since it is part of her everyday life. Since Stamell has an Australian-influenced accent from her time living there, Sam Quek asked how she had learned the Brummie dialect. STamell recalled listening to audiobooks narrated by Jess Phillips and Alison Hammond and said that she was influenced by their accents. She struggled to pick up the accent at first, but began to feel more comfortable using it the longer she had stayed in the role.

Alongside Atwill and Benn, Stamell was nominated for the Best Family accolade at the 2023 British Soap Awards.

Royal Academy of Drama and Stuff

The **Royal Academy of Drama and Stuff**, also known by the acronym **RADS**, is a school for acting (and other stuff) in the *Belinda Blinked* books. Due to budget cuts, MI5 agents are trained in undercover skills here despite it not being one of the best acting institutions in the country - Agent James Spooner explains that the great Dames and other acting talents of the best acting schools would be able to sniff out the spy easily so MI5 instead sends them to a worse acting school where the actors wouldn't be able to deduce the spy's true identity. Female teachers of the academy are known as Acting Mistresses and they can administer Her Majesty's Undercover Test to their spying students.

## About

Howard was disciplined, highly organised and emotionally repressed.

Howard came from a military background, having worked his way up through the ranks to become an officer. When he left the military, he went straight to work in the Health Service.

After a career in the army, Howard moved into medical administration, working for some years for the local Primary Care Trust. He joined The Mill at a turbulent time, having to get the practice through a re-accreditation, and dealing with the departure of a number of staff and the death of a beloved Nurse.

He defended The Mill and its staff against Gary Lucas, who was trying to implement Super Clinics in the area, on more than one occasion, as well as protecting The Mill from Franc, a locum who tried to bring them down and attempted to burn The Mill to the ground. He also battled his own internal demons to overcome Bulimia, something he managed to keep secret.

He would always deal with problems in the correct manner, suspending Al when he was suspected of stalking Jas, and loved his spreadsheets but when The Mill was in jeopardy he wasn’t averse to some risk taking.

Howard lived alone, a short relationship with Gina ended after he decided he was more interested in Emma, with whom he had an on-off relationship, starting when Emma was still married to Sam. Eventually, he and Emma decided to give it a go, embarking on a 40 Day Date. Although the relationship eventually failed Emma soon after discovered she was pregnant, and they decided to give it another go and bring up the baby together.

After Emma suffered a miscarriage, Howard collapsed shortly after and died from a brain aneurism.

Bear, who has previously been the target of racist stop-and-search situation, assumes that it is happening again and "prepares for trouble". However, since Claudia is a black female officer, his attitude is challenged. Bear is surprised when Claudia visits him at the Mill Health Centre later on in the day and worries that he is somehow in further trouble. Simon Timblick of *What to Watch* hinted that Claudia "has something rather unexpected to ask Bear". BBC episode descriptions confirmed that Bear and Claudia would go on a date, but that it would not go well. Bear then becomes "determined to fix things with Claudia". The pair later begin dating. Claudia later begins sharing scenes with established police officer character Rob Hollins (Chris Walker) when the pair begin working together.

Shortly into their relationship, Claudia becomes awkward with Bear after meeting one of his casual exes, Serena Bradley (Tisha Merry). Claudia "storms out" of their date, leaving Bear alarmed. She shows more tension when she meets Bear's colleague, Nina Bulsara (Wendi Peters), who she does not take well to. After feeling ill at a concert Bear takes her to, Claudia takes a pregnancy test. Bear becomes worried that he has done something wrong when Claudia continues not being "a ton of fun" and she reveals the result of the pregnancy test to him.

## About

Kindhearted Mandy has a natural need to speak out and tell it how it is, but she tends to defer big decisions to the doctors.

Mandy was first introduced as a bridesmaid for Cherry Malone.

She is not shy and there is a conflict between her natural need to speak out and tell it how it is, and her tendency to defer to doctors out of habit. An out lesbian since she was sixteen, Mandy grew up in a family with five siblings and a lot of voices, but she can hold her own. Her family are very accepting of her sexuality.

Mandy began a relationship with Freya, though at first she wasn’t sure if she liked Freya as she was bisexual and still had feelings for Kevin. She soon realised, however, that they wanted to be together.

Freya's death left Mandy grief stricken, as she really did love her. Her relationship with Kevin is strained as a result.

Tarroco Island

**Tarroco Island** is an island in the Orange Archipelago. It is a large island that is strictly a 'no-capture zone', meaning Pokémon cannot be captured in or around the area. A lot of its houses are similar in design to the ones on Mandarin Island South, but newer.

Because the island is a 'no-capture zone', it is a very common place for pirates to appear and poach the Pokémon on the island.

## Places to Visit

### Pokémon Center

A large Pokémon Center on the edge of the island looking over a cliff. It looks like a large church with a Poké Ball on the main tower. Although it seems very big, the main lobby is very small, only holding a main desk and one telephone. There is also a Recovery Room where the Pokémon are healed.

### Ranger Base

Tarroco Island's base is the most important Ranger Base in the Orange Archipelago. Because of the islands No Capture Law many pirates and poachers will make their attacks. This is where all Orange Archipelago Rangers hope to end up.

The base itself is camouflaged in with the jungle. Vines grow up along the walls, and most of the building his hidden behind trees. While it is not as fancy as Celadon City's base it meets all the basic needs a Ranger would have.
Chiara Montague

**Chiara Montague** is a recurring character in the Belinda Blinked books. She is a fashion designer to the rich and famous, and is thus frequently brought back whenever Belinda Blumenthal needs some kind of special outfit.

## Works

Chiara Montague has been enlisted to design dresses for Belinda three times, as of Christmas Porno 6:

* Belinda's gown to the Maaschalkerveerd de Klotz/Sylvester wedding: a gown covered in gold sequins, which pushes her tits up to her chin, with a lugubrious slit up the side which is as classy as it is practical
* Belinda's Spy Gown: created in case Belinda has to go spying on a budget, this particular number has special sleeping zest threaded into the lace of the bra, perfect for knocking murderous goons unconscious
* The Steele's Pots and Pans pantomime: Chiara willingly created all the outfits for Steele's Christmas performance of *Cinderella the Intern*, including a gown made of newspaper cuttings for the Ugly Stepsister of Marketing (Sir James Godwin) and one made of payslips and remittance documents for the Ugly Stepsister of Sales (Patrick O'Hamlyn)

## Trivia

* Jamie's initial mispronunciation of Chiara (an Italian name pronounced KEY-ara) as CHEE-ara was the subject of much ridicule from fans of the podcast, but he later confirmed after a conversation with Rocky that his pronunciation was correct because the name was inspired by a friend of the Flintstones actually named Chiara; she pronounces her name KEY-ara but Rocky jokingly calls her CHEE-ara.

## Appearances

* Season 4 episode 1
* Season 5 episode 7 (mentioned)
* Christmas Porno's 2, 6

## About

When Cherry arrived she turned heads amongst the male staff.

When Cherry arrived she was a breath of fresh air. Optimistic, fun loving and a fan of pink, Cherry had a positive attitude to life and her patients. She also had an eidetic memory, which came in useful on occasions.

But Cherry was to be worn down by events. Her first real knock was when her big love Scott Nielson, turned out to be a high living drug dealer. Worse, she woke up next to his dead body after he overdosed on heroin.

However, Cherry bounced back and soon began a deep friendship with Simon Bond and moved in with him. But there was a schism in this relationship too when she questioned the wisdom of his affair with a married man. Her new relationship with Jimmi Clay was something of a whirlwind and she failed to notice the signs of Simon’s deterioration.

But Simon recovered and Cherry was in love with Jimmi. He went off to travel, leaving Cherry to marry Jimmi in what she thought was her first proper grown up relationship.

After the excitement of the wedding at a Chateau, Cherry struggled with the day to day routine of a man stuck in his ways and wrestling his OCD demons. It took Cherry to quite a dark place and in a moment of madness, she had a drunken encounter with Daniel Granger.

The fallout was horrendous. Jimmi and Zara were deeply wounded, Daniel was suffering from post natal depression, so the blame seemed to land largely on Cherry’s shoulders. Suddenly ‘Princess Pinky’ was seen as a villain. In a dramatic exit, Cherry confessed all to a dumbfounded Howard Bellamy, who had accidentally flipped the intercom switch – and the whole thing was broadcast round the practice. Cherry left Letherbridge, still trying to keep her head high.

He takes her on a date, but Megan is disgruntled when he repeatedly talks about his ex-girlfriend, Ayesha Lee (Laura Rollins). When Sid sees Megan arranging another therapy session with patient Remy Briscoe (Jack Loxton), he assumes they are arranging a date. He confronts her about their relationship, and says that he thought they were exclusive. Megan is shocked at his jealousy, and makes fun of his mistake, but affirms that she is only interested in Sid. When it is discovered that the pair are a couple, Megan is reported to the medical board. She is later sacked by Mrs Tembe, and leaves Letherbridge.
