Now i might just be going nuts, but i could have sworn that one of the junior doctors interviewed on TV tonight was shanti's ex betrothed... Is he an actor moonlighting as a doctor or a doctor moonlighting as an actor?  ------------- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker">

I think he is a moonlighting actor. I'm sure I did read somewhere that he is actually a real dr. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

hehe, I saw it too and was like 'it's Danesh!!!'.
I don't think he was working at the time he did Shorters. But they are a few months of filming ahead aren't they? He probably just did SHorters to pay off his student loan and take a break after so many years of studying! Although, from reading the womens mags (alhtough i dont necessarily believe them) it sounds like he'd be taking a pay drop as an actor. but then, maybe he was doubling up and working as a medical advisor for them too????  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

LOL Neeks - I sooo have to agree with you on that one. Don't like his partner either, so glad she didn't win the last DWTS series. ------------- Single Mum to a darling wee boy of 3 years :) |

Danesh is a real life doc - saw him working at Auckland Hospital two weeks ago. Would find it rather weird having him as my doctor though.
And, am not a big Shane Cortese fan either. He seemed a little type cast in the latest outrageous fortune series. ------------- Mum to two wee boys |

He met one of the producers on a night out (if I recall correctly from the goodmorning show) .. they said how cool it would be to have a real doctor on the show and would he like to audition .. so he did (and obv got it). ------------- Mummy to Issy (3) and Elias (18 months) I did it .. 41 kgs gone!

the article said he realised he should carry his certification around as noone would believe in in hospital...i think he is getting out of the series so that how he has the time..he said his mum is happy as his sister is a doctor and has a job as one ..she wasnt happy he decided to be an actor instead:) ------------- Mum to two amazing boys! |
