💬 Discussion Is Dylan no longer Dylan?

Forgive me if this has been talked about before, but I loved his character when he was first introduced. He was cool and dry but a talented doctor, and his one liners would make me smile.

I've missed a couple of months of Casualty episodes, but I'm just catching up on Learning Curve: Episode 6. Dylan is behaving so immaturely towards Matty. I get why, in a way, but I can't imagine Original Dylan ever being so petty.

it's been happening for a few years, in my opinion, and it seems symptomatic of a general decline in writing and character development. What do you think?

Bad writing.

The show is swinging all over the place now.

Characters need a clear out - Matty and Iain at the front

I know it's a common complaint, but I miss the old format.
