Valerie Pitman (played by Sarah Moyle) is afraid it's only a matter of time before someone at The Mill discovers the truth about her unprofessional behaviour on Doctors (1:45pm - see our TV Guide for listings)...

After a phone call last week from a pharmacist, Mr Khan, business manager, Bear Sylvester (Dex Lee) is out to investigate a strange prescription...

Bear wants answers from Al Haskey (Ian Midlane).

WHY has the GP prescribed some expensive medication for acute asthma patient, Grace Dodds?

But it doesn't take long for Al to suspect WHO is really behind the forged prescription for Grace...

Al is furious and confronts Valerie about what she has done!

Valerie tries to convince Al there must be a mistake.

But will Al believe Valerie's cover story... or will he land her in BIG trouble with Bear and surgery bosses, Daniel Granger (Matthew Chambers) and Zara Carmichael (Elisabeth Dermot Walsh)?
