Clare's entranced by a dog following her into work, unlike Brian. Stars Sally Phillips.

Clare's entranced by a dog following her into work, unlike Brian. But the dog has its uses. With Sally Phillips. From June 2010.

Clare is entranced by a dog that follows her into work. Brian is less entranced. However, the dog comes in useful when there's a bump in the night.

Clare Barker is the self-absorbed social worker who has the right jargon for every problem she comes across, though never a practical solution. But there are plenty of challenges out there for an involved, caring social worker. Or even Clare.

Written by Harry Venning and David Ramsden.
