Princess Buchanan (played by Laura White) has a surprise for her surgery co-workers on today's episode of Doctors (1:45 pm - see our TV Guide for listings).
A delivery box arrives containing an ultrasound machine that Princess has ordered for the Minor Surgery Unit.
Princess proudly shows-off the purchase to boss lady Zara Carmichael (Elisabeth Dermot Walsh), business manager Bear Sylvester (Dex Lee) and receptionist Scarlett Kiernan (Kia Pegg).
But wait a minute, didn't the bosses reject Princess's pitch to buy the ultrasound machine when she gave her presentation?
Bear and Zara are less than impressed that Princess has gone behind their backs and spent money.
