Doctors spoilers: The staff CELEBRATE with Kirsty!
Airs Wednesday 25 September 2024 at 2:00pm on BBC1.
Word has got around about Kirsty Millar's (played by Kiruna Stamell) BIG news on Doctors (2:00pm - see our TV Guide for listings).
And the surgery staff are totally supportive about her decision.
Bear Sylvester (Dex Lee) reckons it's time for a staff get-together, after work at The Icon.
After the staff gather in reception to present Kirsty with a card and gift, the receptionist decides to speak to boss, Zara Carmichael (Elisabeth Dermot Walsh), about The Mill's new practice partner, Graham Elton (Alex Avery).
Kirsty fills Zara in about Graham's concerning behaviour and micro-aggressions.
But so far, Michelle Walton (Joanna Bending) hasn't believed nurse Luca McIntyre's (Ross McLaren) claims about Graham.
So will Zara listen when Kirsty speaks out against the new man in charge?
Ruhma Carter (Bharti Patel) is out for a home visit to see pregnant teenager, Leah Drake (Grace Wylde), and her partner, Benny Renn (Charles Humphreys).
While examining Leah, midwife Ruhma notices four mobile phones in the flat.
Leah casually explains away the multiple phones.
But when Ruhma is leaving, a lad knocks on the door and gives Benny some cash.
Is something dodgy going on?
Back at the surgery, Ruhma tells Suni Bulsara (Rahul Arya) about her worries.
He suggests she calls the Council to report it.
It's not long before Sharon Maguire (Gemma Layton), a Tenancy Enforcement Officer, is on the case.
Something is not right.
But despite Ruhma and Sharon's attempts to help, both Leah and Benny quickly try to send their visitors packing!
Do the couple have something to hide?
Doctors continues Monday to Thursday at 2:00pm on BBC One.
