As it’s Remembrance Sunday this coming weekend, Doctors reminds us of the effects of recent conflicts on the families left at home. While giving a routine blood pressure check, Kevin (Simon Rivers) is berated by his patient Diana (Diana Kent) for not wearing a poppy. He feels especially awkward when she reveals that her husband was killed serving in Iraq in 2005.
But matters get worse when she accidentally backs into his car in the car park. Her car, she explains hysterically, belongs to her daughter who’s fighting in Afghanistan and he’ll have to wait for it to be repaired. However, there’s much more to her agitation than meets the eye.
