On the verge of a nervous breakdown
Saturday, 22 January 20:00 BBC1
Subtle signs that something's amiss with troubled medic Ruth have been building up for months following her discovery that her husband, Edward, is gay.
This week her erratic behaviour becomes more obvious when she turns up for her shift uncharacteristically caked in make-up, wearing a flower in her hair and in a highly agitated state.
Throughout the day, Ruth thinks she can see the words 'help me' - first on a patient's tattoo and then in a letter. Then events take a sinister turn when she becomes convinced a young schizophrenic patient, Katy, has a brain tumour and needs an operation...
Can Jordan convince her not to take a scalpel to Katy?
Elsewhere, it's Kirsty's wedding anniversary and husband Warren suggests they spend the day bowling, just like they used to. Kirsty decides to call in sick and give their marriage another chance.
But Warren's mood darkens and he turns on Kirsty again. Will she pluck up the courage to leave her abusive husband?
