Further details
Louisa and Martin have their first therapy session together - though neither of them was expecting that they would be given homework.
Peter Cronk, now 15, approaches Louisa to ask if Martin will allow him to do work experience at the surgery. Louisa is surprised, and impressed, when Martin agrees to this: perhaps he is learning to change after all.
Morwenna is not quite so happy about it when Peter starts trying to tell her what to do.
Mrs Tishell is surprised by the return of her husband, Clive, and even more so when he tells her he wants to give things another go.
Bert, after losing the restaurant and having nowhere to live except his new campervan, is looking around for other opportunities, but he is keeping everything close to his chest, and definitely away from the eyes of PC Penhale, who is trying to impress Janice.
Louisa has to call Martin to help her when one of her pupils, Jessy Bawden, collapses, during a school excursion, and together they rush Jessy to hospital. A young supply teacher at the school, Miss Grappy, had failed to spot the signs that Jessy was unwell, as she concentrated on her mobile phone and topping up her tan.
Peter's work experience doesn't work out quite as well as he had hoped, though he is very grateful he did it when Martin helps him to successfully treat his mother, Mrs Cronk.
