- Season 2

(2005)

Whilst Kate and Clare become friends Beth is still after a rich husband to take Paul's place and sets her sights on Joe,son of a wealthy patient who has his own trust fund. However she is approached by a friend from the past,Sean,who gets her to steal drugs for him. When Jamie catches her and threatens to report her Lia saves the day with a spot of blackmail. Anji finds herself falling for Callum ,who somewhat unwisely tells her he loves both her and Daisy. By the time he realises that Anji is the one for him he finds her having sex on the rebound in a cupboard with ...

The friendship between Kate and Clare falls apart as Kate gets picked on by the sister. Anji drowns her sorrows at not being able to have Callum whilst Beth nurses a man who has tried to crucify himself and calls her Mary. He gets ecstatic every time she dresses his nail wounds though ultimately she discovers that he is likening her to Mary Magdalene and not the Virgin Mary. Lia enters a creative writing contest with an account of her severe post-natal depression following the birth of Emma. Her story is well-received and she considers leaving nursing to become a ...

Anji persuades the others to go speed dating with her. She thinks she has done well when she meets Alex but his failure to contact her leads to her having casual sex with the porters whilst Beth's date Nigel turns out to have a daughter he has conveniently failed to mention. When the ward is hit by an outbreak of MRSA Kate is put in charge of infection control. The culprit turns out to be Clare,who is forced to resign,thus allowing Kate to take her place as ward sister.

Kate starts dating handsome patient Robert Miller. However,as his condition starts to worsen,she begins to see the folly of her decision as she feels compromised. Beth is annoyed when Jamie resorts to crawling in order to become registrar and determines to take him down a peg or two whilst Lia,in an effort to prove to Emma that she is a responsible parent,looks after her pet rabbit. Anji meanwhile befriends a PhD student convinced she is having a breakdown and learns a little psychology in the process.

The trust is looking for a nurse to star in their new recruitment campaign. Beth does not share the others' enthusiasm that Kate should be put forward but changes her attitude when she is chosen instead. Anji fails to see why the others have signed up for cable TV when they would be better off clubbing whilst student nurse Simone seeks Beth's advice in attracting a doctor she fancies. However when the doctor turns out to be Jamie,who is crowing about pulling sixteen year old Simone Beth punches him - in front of the campaign cameras,thus ending her reign.

Lia agrees to pose as Jamie's fiancee to impress senior consultant Mr Asquith at the annual hospital ball and increase his chances of being made registrar. Mr Asquith is indeed impressed but Lia herself ends up having a quickie with Marcus,a medical supplies rep,who is keen to see her again. Kate is rushed to casualty and she and her friends find it a bizarre experience to have to nurse one of their own.

The others are less than pleased when Anji's cousin Sujata rings her,saying she needs a place to stay after rowing with her parents though her stay is ended when Anji's aunt explains what really happened. Kate is accepted on a medical practitioner course which will give her more power on the ward whilst Beth dates new registrar Dr. Tim but is put off by his odd behaviour. Lia accompanies Jamie to another function and,at Emma's request,Marcus,who is clearly in love with Lia,acts as baby-sitter.

Jamie is made registrar at last and,at the celebration, Kate gets drunk on cheap champagne and makes a fool of herself in front of Dr Templar,who suggests she attends Alcoholics Anonymous. A new agency nurse,the handsome Justyn,arrives and after initially getting off on the wrong foot Beth goes on a date with him and,although he is allegedly gay,wonders how she ended up in bed with him. Lia realises that she is more in love with Jamie than Marcus,whom she has to let down gently whilst Callum is convinced that the ragged looking man following Anji is a stalker and ...
