Zara Carmichael (played by Elisabeth Dermot Walsh) is still reeling from Nina Bulsara's (Wendi Peters) unexpected decision to leave the surgery on Doctors! (1:45pm - see our TV Guide for listings).

Not only is Nina leaving but she's made it clear she intends to give her partnership at The Mill to her son, Suni (Rahul Arya)!

As the BBC daytime drama returns after a break for Easter, Zara confides in Michelle Walton (Joanna Bending) about Nina's SHOCK bombshell.

Zara believes Suni is too inexperienced to take on the role of partner at the practice.

Besides, the GP's recent track record hasn't been great, after all that dodgy business involving imposter doctor, Harry Drake!

Zara is still determined to find someone else to take Nina's place.

But if she and business manager, Bear Sylvester (Dex Lee), can't find a replacement partner, they'll have no choice but to do things Nina's way!

Meanwhile, Suni is having his own negative reaction to his mum's sudden announcement.

Suni is certain that he doesn't even want the job promotion that Nina is offering.

After clashing again, Nina is unhappy when Suni announces he is moving out of the house to escape from her controlling ways...
