Mrs Tembe is alarmed when Dr Sid Vere reveals he is seriously considering a job offer from Jeremy Smails at rival surgery Sutton Vale...

Mrs Tembe is beginning to regret asking Dr Sid Vere to go undercover and interview for a job at rival surgery Sutton Vale, as now the doc is seriously considering accepting a job offer from Mrs Tembe's arch-nemesis, Practice Manager Jeremy Smail.

After venting her frustrations to friend and colleague Dr Heston Carter, Mrs Tembe's day gets a whole lot worse when a smug Mr Smails calls the surgery asking for a job reference for Sid and thanking Mrs Tembe for training the medic so well!

Mrs Tembe is then in a bad mood for the rest of the day and snaps at nurse Ayesha Lee when she is late for afternoon clinic. But Ayesha is not happy about being told off. So when sneaky Mr Smails contacts her about a possible job at Sutton Vale, Ayesha agrees to go in for a chat! Is Mr Smails about to successfully poach both Sid and Ayesha from The Mill?

And there's more drama for Ayesha when an old school friend Karinna Hailes comes into the surgery, armed with a wad of cash and demanding laser treatment to remove a caesarean scar. But when Ayesha investigates further, she discovers the shock truth about Karinna's baby...

Doctors continues weekdays at 1:45pm on BBC One.
