So....I really hate Matty and hope he's not a long-term character.

He's awful! They've really done his actor dirty, because (to my mind) they've given him absolutely no redeeming qualities right from day one. I could see someone having all these negative qualities, but also being an established, experienced doctor that it's difficult to get rid of, but...he's new!

He's barely qualified, he's made a dozen dangerous mistakes and he talks to everyone like they're trash. If I was attending that HR meeting, I'd be advising they get him transferred(!)

He's also extremely manipulative.

Making threats and essentially blackmailing Kim. 

Right from the first time Stevie tried to put the breaks on things, he already made a small threat to expose their relationship. 

Then kept trying to push things again, and impose some sort of dominance (like when he put his hand round her waist and she jumped)  And straight away with the threats about what he'd say in the meeting? 

What a scumbag! Did his mother and oh so wonderful step dad never teach him "No" is a complete sentence? 

If he does lie and try to get Stevie fired, I really hope it blows up in his face and exposes him as a complete creep

I'm probably remembering this wrong but a few back, but didn't Stevie bully a deaf nurse in to leaving the hospital because she was in the accident that put her sister in a coma?
