Doctors spoilers: Sid Vere investigates a SHOCK family secret!

Doctors, Estelle Vere, Sid Vere, Tye Vere

Sid visits his parents Estelle and Tye but is puzzled when he accidentally discovers a mystery baby's hospital wrist band. What's going on?

Ever since his parents' wedding anniversary party, Sid Vere has begun to question the strong influence his mum Estelle has over his life... especially when it comes to the ladies in Sid's life.

So the medic decides to visit his parents and see if there's a polite way to tell his mum to back-off!

However, when Sid decides it's time to come clean and confess to the brief affair he had with his married boss, Zara Carmichael, last year, Estelle immediately starts interfering again, disappointed by Sid's behaviour and worried that he may still be attracted to Zara.

When Estelle then writes off Sid's recent relationship coaching through the Love Lessons workshop as nonsense, he decides enough is enough and he needs a mum-free break!

But before he leaves his parents' home, Sid accidentally stumbles upon a photo of his pregnant mum plus a mystery baby's hospital wrist band with a written birth date TWO years before he was born. What's going on?

Meanwhile, back at the surgery, Zara and estranged hubby Daniel Granger continue to get on each other's nerves. Especially after Daniel hears Zara is talk of the school because she has been on a date with another man over the weekend!

Simon has long been a fan of soap operas, and especially loves OVER-THE-TOP plots involving evil twins, hair-pulling catfights and natural disasters.

Simon has written for a variety of TV and childrens’ magazines/websites including Inside Soap, Nickelodeon, What’s On TV, Radio Times, Metro, Girl Talk, Disney Girl, Toxic! and Digital Spy. He has reported LIVE from the red carpet at The British Soap Awards interviewing glammed-up stars from soapland, and hosted a Facebook LIVE session for Metro with Home and Away legend Ray Meagher (Alf "Stone the flamin' crows!" Stewart) to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Aussie soap.

Simon is also co-author of The Treasures Of Coronation Street (Carlton Books)

And the writer and director of (very!) low budget fright flick, Midsummer Night's EVIL and the sequel webisodes series, The Hatchet Woods HORROR.
