Al Haskey (played by Ian Midlane) is desperately looking for a way out of attending the charity fight night on today's episode of Doctors (1:45pm - see our TV Guide for listings).

He's a gentle GP and doesn't belong at a boisterous boxing club!

Plus, he fears that his appearance as the Sarcastic Badger character may not end well for him!

So on the concluding episode of this two-parter, Al asks his friend and surgery co-worker, Jimmi Clay (Adrian Lewis Morgan), to help get his arm into a sling.

Is Al suddenly going to develop an ''injury'' which will prevent him from attending?

But Jimmi reminds Al that bosslady, Nina Bulsara (Wendi Peters), is the only person who can declare him UNFIT to fight!

And after the way that Al had fun winding Nina up about her involvement with the charity boxing match, will she be prepared to help him out?
