While Nina grits her teeth and tries to get through the visit, how will Suni react when Auntie Binita reveals she's found a lovely Indian scientist she wants to introduce him to!

Emma Reid (Dido Miles) has an appointment to review diabetic patient, Ronnie Ramsey (Paul Cawley).

Ronnie is having a difficult time adjusting to the post-pandemic world, and insists on still wearing a face mask and carrying a bottle of hand sanitizer.

During their appointment, Emma notices Ronnie moving his chair two metres away.

The GP gently reminds Ronnie that he is fully vaccinated and doesn't have to live in fear from Covid.

But Ronnie refuses to discuss the matter any further.

He seems further distracted after a fallout with his son, Justin (Edward Mitchell).

Justin is due to marry his fiance, Simon Pang (Stephen Hoo), in two days time.

But the Big Day has suddenly been thrown into jeopardy by Ronnie's announcement that he will NOT be attending the wedding!

Could it be that Ronnie does not approve of Justin's gay wedding plans?

Simon has written for a variety of TV and childrens’ magazines/websites including Inside Soap, Nickelodeon, What’s On TV, Radio Times, Metro, Girl Talk, Disney Girl, Toxic! and Digital Spy. He has reported LIVE from the red carpet at The British Soap Awards interviewing glammed-up stars from soapland, and hosted a Facebook LIVE session for Metro with Home and Away legend Ray Meagher (Alf "Stone the flamin' crows!" Stewart) to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Aussie soap.
