Community psychiatric nurse Liz does her rounds of patients, starting with elderly widow Lorrie, whose gentleman friend Maurice is maddeningly over-attentive. Obese Graham's condition is not helped by his mother's constant feeding him fatty foods whilst ex-convict Billy is reclusive and overly influenced by former cellmate Tony and erstwhile rock star Ray lives in the past - as does senile Phyllis. Last visit is to ageing thespian Herbert, who, without the voices in his head, lacks anybody to talk to. Liz is sympathetic to all her patients but she has problems of her own.

Graham's mother is undermining his supposed diet by giving him treats and Phyllis is still unable to recognize son Gary, though he lives with her. Tony Beckton is still dominating agoraphobic Billy and young soldier Jack refuses to accept that he has post traumatic stress. The well-meaning Maurice is irritating Lorrie and Herbert's sister Amanda also thinks she knows best. At least the Cat lady April has allowed the council to clean her filthy home but in her private life Liz is still having problems as her estranged husband is not honouring access arrangements.

Liz finds that Graham has a girlfriend in the shy Janice and tries to encourage Billy to cook vegetables from her allotment though Tony's preference for the frozen variety thwarts her plan. Phyllis still fails to recognize Gary and Ray still prattles on about his musical past, including less than happy memories - whilst young Jack is also unsettled by recalling his time in Afghanistan. Herbert bemoans the loss of his sex drive and April bemoans the death of her cat Marilyn but at least Maurice is teaching Lorrie to dance, whether she wants to or not, and Liz has a girls' night out to look forward to.

Ray's wild outburst alarms Liz, as do new patient Bernie's habit of attacking her husband and Maurice's meddling in Lorrie's life. Phyllis is still oblivious to the real world but Jack seems to derive some comfort from digging himself a fox-hole in his parents' garden and Herbert is philosophical - as well as trying to importune Liz. The reappearance of ex-husband Don, threatening suicide unless Liz has him back, is also something she can do without but at least she gets Graham out of bed and walking. Written by don @ minifie-1
