| "Out of Africa" |
| A major bout of food poisoning (due
to bad fish) affects most of the townsfolk after
a wedding. This episode also heralds the arrival
of the new Director of Nursing, Rosemary Prior.
She gets on the wrong side of many people because
of her curt and officious manner and her
extraordinary concern about the waste of supplies
and water, things that were in short supply in
her previous work in Africa. Lucy helps keep the
newlyweds from breaking up and Frank, originally
thought to have food poisoning like everyone
else, is diagnosed with acute appendicitis. Luke
moves in with Steve (as a lodger), much to his
delight. Terence succombs to food poisoning and
exhaustion during Frank's operation and Rosemary
has to take over. Kerry Homes goes into labour
while Terence is laid up and Rosemary safely
delivers the baby. Luke is bitten by a
(non-poisonous) snake. Esme loses a $3000 budgie
from Matt's surgery but the budgie is later
found. |
