Adam continues to act under his own jurisdiction in this week's episode of the medical drama that stars Denise Welch as Goldie, the straight-talking mother of a sex offender.

Known sex offender Matthew is brought into the ED after suffering a beating at the hands of a former victim's father. When he confesses to Adam that he wishes he was dead, Adam is tempted to bypass normal hospital procedure and help him, especially after a frank talk with Matthew’s ashamed mother, Goldie. Against normal policy, Adam pays a visit to the hospital pharmacist, but just how is he planning to help Matthew?

Meanwhile, Mads is distraught to learn that her new friend is the wife of her attacker, Ash; and Linda goes head to head with Jordan over budgets, only to find unlikely assistance in the form of Jordan’s new PA.

Casualty star Tristan Gemmill has revealed details of this weekend's sex offender storyline.

The 44-year-old actor, who has starred in the BBC One medical drama since 2007, said that his alter ego Dr Adam Trueman will suffer the effects of paedophile Matthew.

Gemmill explained to What's on TV: "Adam's been feeling frustrated with the medical system for a few weeks now. At first he treats the sex offender Matthew for his injuries like he would any other patient.

"But when Matthew makes a cry for help, claiming he can't stop himself, Adam realises he's going to have to step in. Otherwise Matthew could go on to attack another young girl."

The star further teased: "Adam decides to take matters into his own hands and pays a visit to the hospital pharmacist.

"I won't give away the ending, but it's the start of a downhill spiral for Adam. He begins to develop a bit of a God complex and breaks all the rules."

Casualty's 'Rogue' airs this Saturday at 9pm on BBC One.
