S1 E3 (20 Sep 86) : Night Runners by Matthew Bardsley

Episode Summary

As Baz arrives late into the department, she first has to certify the death of a young girl.

It’s football day – Holby v Tottenham. A 16 year old boy is picked up, wrongly accused of attacking a policeman. He is discharged from the hospital, where he later returns with his deranged father – it turns out he attacked the policeman and his son. He threatens staff with a Stanley knife.

Tuesday, a young woman, is brought in by her boyfriend, Steve. She has appendicitis and needs an operation – but she is a Christian Scientist and refuses to sign the consent form. Megan asks the staff to pray for her, and miraculously her pain is cured.

Baz has a new boyfriend, Charles, who has taken her out to dinner, after ringing her many times at work, he appears at the hospital and tries to kiss her in a cubicle – she is not happy after a stressful shift.

Patients

* Two football fans, one with a cut hand – Duffy asks them to help her with her driving test.

* A Constable policeman receives lacerations after an attack, believed to be the fault of 16 year old Kevin Blackwell, who has a broken arm, but it was the result of an argument with his father, Roy.
