There are fireworks for the staff in more ways then one as the medical drama continues.

To the delight of the hospital staff in the Emergency Department (ED), Jordan returns but, this time, in an unfamiliar administrative role. Jordan is disappointed not to be on the front line but sparks are soon flying when he steps in to assist Lenny in treating bonfire-night casualties. A major incident at a pub, involving a box of fireworks, ensures that it's going to be a long, emotional night in ED.

One victim is a young anorexic girl, Fran. To her mother Jenny's consternation, she refuses to have a saline drip in case she puts on weight. Can the medical staff persuade her to accept treatment and talk to her mother about her problems?

Meanwhile, it's Jeff's first shift as a solo rapid responder but disaster strikes when, on his first call, he is attacked from behind and left bleeding. The blow to the head also leaves him disorientated and unable to remember exactly who attacked him. For some reason, the name coming to his mind is Alistair. Deeply concerned, Polly decides to pay a visit to Alistair's hostel, where she makes a horrific discovery.

still no ruth and jaaaaaaaaay :(

sorry rant over now.

sounds like a good show.

anorexic person seems rather silly.

Why?

for refusing to have the saline drip.

though i know she is probably being resonable in her head i guess.

Well to a rational person (i.e. someone who doesn't suffer from anorexia or other eating disorders) it is difficult to understand their fear of putting on weight or accepting help.

In Fran's mind, she's completely terrified and convinced the saline will make her fat. I wouldn't say she's silly; she has a psychiatric illness that makes her think that way. What's rational and irrational to someone with an eating disorder is completely different to those that don't.

yeh i know.

i know what goes on inside there minds.
i feel for her.

bless.
xx

He's playing a blinder though. I know he's going to turn creepy, but he's a victim. A good person at heart who cracks up.

I haven`t seen Saturday nights Casualty yet, so I could be way off base here in my suspicions.
I can`t help but wonder if Sara Evans has more than a passing fancy towards Ruth. She really disapproves of Jay and I was wondering if Sara has feelings for Ruth.Do you think it`s possible? It sure would explain why she wanted Ruth to sit next to her at that dinner party the other week, and why she didn`t want Jay to attend with Ruth.
:)

I think she has a purely professional interest in Ruth.
