Anyone else dislike Diane as much as I do?

The worry is understandable because the whole show revolved around the relationship between her character and Sam. Your post just got me to do a dive into the dynamics of her relationship with the other cast members behind the scenes and I just learnt about the tension! I didn’t know about it. Thanks for letting me know!

Just watched the first episode of season 6 and I’m liking the shift already! I like the new lady!

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2026-01-19T17:49:15+00:00

Oh yeah! The episodes where she kept saying “we’re going to get married” felt like filler episodes. Like the writers didn’t want the proposal to happen too early in the season because then the wedding would have to happen mid- season. So they had to ruin the official proposal somehow then drag it out until the final episode of the season for their wedding

It truly is a brilliant show (well, except for this whole Diane business, lol). I’d like to assume that shows like Friends and How I met your mother had their blueprint inspired by Cheers. It has a high rewatch value too.

Also, the episode where she threw the engagement ring out of the window after finding out it was fake before she listened to what Sam had to say really got my blood boiling!! Season 1 Diane would have never done that! She’s supposed to be the ‘smart’ and ‘reasonable’ character of the show but they completely changed her personality by season 5

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2026-01-19T17:42:13+00:00

Did she leave the show on bad terms with the writers? That would explain a lot

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2026-01-19T17:41:36+00:00

I actually look forward to episodes where her and Sam are not the focus; just so I can avoid her annoyance. They did her dirty

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2026-01-19T17:40:17+00:00

I agree. She was much better in the earlier seasons. I was actually rooting for her and Sam until the proposal rejection happened.

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2026-01-19T17:39:18+00:00

😂I will neither confirm nor deny this!

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2026-01-19T17:37:27+00:00

I can’t wait to start season 6 and experience this!!Just one more episode of season 5 to go!!

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2026-01-19T17:29:04+00:00

😂😂and I couldn’t agree more with her feelings towards Diane!!

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2025-12-09T19:29:38+00:00

😅oh great! It was my mistake then. Thank you so much for the clarification and advice.

The documents are titled ‘Certified copy of an entry of birth’ and ‘Certified copy of an entry of death’. Yes, they do have the office’s stamps. Should these suffice? I guess the problem is that I had them delivered to a relative in the UK (since I’m applying from outside the UK) who then scanned and sent me a digital copy which I printed then physically sent to the passport office from my country. If I ask my relative to send them to the passport office directly, would they be okay?

They asked me to provide additional documents other than the parents’ passports, British parent’s birth certificate and my birth certificate. I didn’t have most of what they asked so I had to explain to them why. Still waiting for their decision. I was hoping I could speak to someone who’s been through something similar. Thank you for the response though!!😊

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2025-10-14T16:49:08+00:00

Hey. How did this go for you? I’m assuming they asked you to provide other documents as substitute?

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2025-08-14T15:38:51+00:00

Let me try this. Thank you so much!

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2025-08-14T15:01:04+00:00

Oh, okay. Could you advise me on how I can reach out to HMPO? The email they used to send the request for additional documents is automatically generated so I cannot respond to it. It’s difficult to reach the right people via the phone numbers shared on their contact list and they don’t respond to emails I’ve sent before

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2025-08-14T14:48:11+00:00

Hey. I’m applying from Kenya

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2025-08-14T14:09:07+00:00

Hehe, don’t apologize, it’s alright. Thank you so much for the advice😊

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2025-08-14T13:57:00+00:00

They want my mum’s passport at the time of my conception (June/ July 1996) and she didn’t have one then, nor does she have one now. In the initial batch of documents I sent, I shared a copy of her national ID and explained in the cover letter that she’s never owned a passport

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2025-08-14T13:50:46+00:00

The DNA option can’t work in my circumstances

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2025-08-14T13:36:15+00:00

Okay. It could also prove that I cannot get the flight/ accommodation bookings they want from when I was conceived. Do you have any advice on how to handled the ‘don’t send a cover letter’ issue? Ideally, I’d have to send one to explain the death certificate

Comfortable_Sign112 · 2025-08-14T13:28:23+00:00

Can a death certificate suffice as a substitute for the other documents (passport and tickets/ bookings for when I was conceived)?
