2.09 Seeking Heat – 7/11/87

S2 E9 (7 Nov 87) : Seeking Heat by Ray Brennan & Jeremy Brock

Episode Summary

Ewart has been to his and Roz’s divorce hearing – Ewart is left with nothing. He tells Elizabeth over dinner, and she tells him she was there, as she wanted to see what Roz looked like. Karen and Cyril both pass their exams, but Karen reveals her plans to leave nursing and go to London. Charlie tells her she’s doing the right thing, as he’s too late to change, but says he’s also going to London for a job interview as Clinical Manager. He says he’ll miss her and they kiss.

There’s a massive explosion in a block of flats, caused by a woman, Pauline, on the ground floor, who asked a man to bring a homemade bomb around, which she accidentally lets off. Also in the flats are a couple, Neal and Jenny, and their friend, Scott (who fancies Jenny). Duffy and Mary are called out – Mary is nervous as it’s her first call out. Duffy’s frosty relationship with Mary thaws, when Mary scrambles through the wreckage to treat a man in the rubble, found alive by a heat seeking camera. Mary nearly falls through the floorboards but is saved by the fireman. They take him to casualty, where he can only be identified from a denim jacket he is wearing. Scott’s parents are brought in, where Ewart asks if the coat was his – it is, and they are elated that he is alive, but later the staff find out it was Neal who’s alive – and was wearing Scott’s jacket. Megan is shocked, at facing telling them their son is infact dead.

An elderly woman is also injured in the blast, is brought in. Her son, Wayne, shouts at Megan, because she’s Irish and is therefore responsible for the IRA. Kuba and Charlie take him away, Megan gets upset and is comforted by Ewart – she tells him all of her problems.

And a man, Mr Wright, is also brought in suffering with constipation – Mary dismisses his problem as not serious.
