Something is VERY wrong with Zara Carmichael (played by Elisabeth Dermot Walsh) on today's episode of Doctors (2:00pm - see our TV Guide for listings)...

When Zara wakes-up in the morning, she is alarmed to discover she cannot move at all...

Without revealing her fear, Zara claims she has hurt her back and gets her teenage son, Joe (Oliver Falconer), to fetch her phone.

Zara speaks to Michelle Walton (Joanna Bending) at The Mill.

The women discuss Zara's symptoms and try to work out what could be wrong.

Michelle urges Zara to go to hospital but she refuses...

Zara turns to help from her private GP, Charlotte Heaversedge (Jennifer Hennessy), who books her in for a CT scan.

WHAT will the test results reveal?

Meanwhile, Bear Sylvester (Dex Lee) and Suni Bulsara (Rahul Arya) are unaware of Zara's medical emergency.

It's the day of the Care Quality Commission spot check and they need to be on top of things.

But when Zara is a no-show, will Bear and Suni have no choice but to turn to Graham Elton (Alex Avery) for help?

Vivian and Leon are forbidden to answer the door or leave the house...

How will Janet react when she returns home and finds a stranger, Scarlett, in the house?

Simon has long been a fan of soap operas, and especially loves OVER-THE-TOP plots involving evil twins, hair-pulling catfights and natural disasters.

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.

Simon is also co-author of The Treasures Of Coronation Street (Carlton Books)

And the writer and director of (very!) low budget fright flick, Midsummer Night's EVIL and the sequel webisodes series, The Hatchet Woods HORROR.
