Lara's future hangs in the balance.
Medical Drama: Casualty 8.15pm BBC1
Poor Dr Lara Stone (Christine Stephen-Daly) is looking more hollow-eved and wan than usual, although this isn't perhaps too surprising as today is the day her appeal against her conviction for the murder of David Collier is heard.
But an awful lot still hangs in the balance as Lara frets about whether David's abused wife Melanie (Lisa Palfrey) will actually tell the truth this time round after she lied at the original court hearing.
Meanwhile Lara's Holby City colleagues await the outcome, but it seems that bossy Jan (Judy Loe) has already made up her mind what to do should Lara be released from prison and wish to return to work. Will the briskly silver-tongued and no- nonsense Harry (Simon MacCorkindale) manage to use all his considerable charm to force a change of heart upon Jan?
Elsewhere Jack (Will Mellor) is furious with his dim girlfriend, thicky Nikki (Kelly Harrison), after the newspaper pictures of her posing in little more than a stab vest appear on the hospital noticeboard. Jack has never been the brightest light bulb in the porch, but that doesn't mean that where there's no sense there's no feeling.
And dopey Roxy (where on earth does Holby City find these people?) gets a shock when her former nursing tutor accompanies a would-be suicide to the hospital. As the young woman fights for her life, Roxy (Loo Brealey) makes a dreadful discovery. (Alison Graham TV editor)
