1Keep Your Nose Clean
Dick and Duncan return to St Swithins, having failed to stop - thanks to Dick - at a road accident. Hardly anybody remembers who they are, though they get their jobs back. New colleagues number efficient doctor Kate Wright, proud, but often tipsy, Scot Andrew MacKenzie and James Gascoigne, the creepy, serious natural successor to Lawrence Bingham. Duncan almost loses his new job on his first day after running up against the manager of an injured footballer.
2When a Body Meets a Body
Confusion reigns at the hospital when the non-English speaking Ciappossoni family take over Casualty, a hypochondriac demands an operation, a corpse goes astray and convicted criminal Melia, brought in under guard for a gallstone operation, has his trolley accidentally switched with that of the corpse and ends up in the morgue, where he assumes he is on a ward and chats to the other 'patients' - to nil response.
3It's the Thought That Counts
To celebrate Sir Geoffrey's twenty years as a professor of surgery, Dick and Duncan decide to buy him a present to celebrate the event, but the other doctors are not keen as they have had recent run-ins with the great man. Dick eventually buys him a tape recorder but it has a mind of its own and accidentally begins recording - a conversation the doctors are having in which they all criticize Sir Geoffrey.
4Radio Activity
When Sir Geoffrey gives the hospital its first radio service he should have known better than to let Dick help run it as he incorporates local advertisers - to line his own pockets. MacKenzie's drunken on-air rants and Gascoigne's tedious play about Louis Pasteur also drive the patients to watching old films on TV, but when Nurse Reynolds unwittingly chats up Duncan on air, it gives birth to a saucy soap opera with the patients clamouring for more.
5A Run for Your Money
Duncan has lost charity money entrusted him by Sir Geoffrey. A cross country race between St Swithins and Highcross is coming up so Duncan, Dick and McKenzie bet on Highcross to win and nobble their own runners by various means. Taking part themselves they accidentally win but are disqualified for cheating, ensuring a Highcross victory.
6Learning by Heart
Duncan needs to pass a vital anatomy exam but the rowdy antics of flatmates Dick Stuart-Clark and Andrew MacKenzie are not conducive to a study environment. Fellow doctor Kate takes pity on him and lets him use her flat. Her boyfriend Barry is not at all happy with this so Kate finishes with him, leaving Duncan with the possibility of getting the girl, as well as the exam.
7It's Just the Job
At an exhibition encouraging school-leavers to take up medicine, Dick, Duncan and Andrew meet the head of the Charlemagne hotel chain, who is looking for a resident doctor in his London hotel. The three doctors vie with each other and the post is won by Dick, but it is not what it was cracked up to be and he returns to St. Swithins.
8What's Op Doc?
Duncan takes charge of a group of new students and tries to get in with them by playing the joker and recounting his own japes as a young student. Following an operation he is aghast to find that there is a spare body part in the bin. He fears that he has done something wrong but in fact it's the students playing a joke on him. He needs to get his own back.
9Room for Change
The five doctors are finding it very cramped having to share one office, and getting smaller desks doesn't help, so Dick has an idea. In exchange for being introduced to the local golf professional, Sir Geoffrey will swap his large office for the others'. However, further complications arise and everybody is still dissatisfied, so Duncan hatches a plan to get things back to normal.
10A Heart in the Right Place
Duncan competes with James Gascoigne to find an unusual case study to present at a forthcoming medical conference. Fortunately for Duncan he finds Mr. Andrews, a man whose heart is on the right hand side of his body - a rare case indeed. Unfortunately Mr. Andrews gets fed up with waiting around and wanders off whilst the eventual X-ray tendered is that of Sir Geoffrey.
11What's Your Problem?
Duncan is feeling depressed so he goes to see Professor Browning, a psychiatrist who urges him to change his life-style and become more confident. This works so well that Dick and Andrew also go to see Browning and change their life-styles - both becoming unusually sober and serious. Even Sir Geoffrey is not immune from the Browning treatment but he becomes very trendy.
12Clunk Click
Dick hurts his leg and Duncan does his back in so they decide that, as an alternative to conventional medicine, they will seek the help of a faith healer. Sir Geoffrey is dismissive, calling such people quacks. However, when the two doctors arrive for their appointment they discover that the faith healer has just died.
13The Course of True Love
Duncan is feeling stressed out again. Gascoigne seems to be after his job and they have a public falling-out in front of a bunch of medical students. He loves Kate but can he go through with marriage to her? Things conspire to get on top of him and he has a big bust up with her after she hits him. Will they get back on track for the next series?
1When Did You Last See Your Mother?
When Duncan finds a baby on his door step with a note attached saying Baby Duncan, he assumes that the child is his and makes efforts to track down the putative mother from his ex-girlfriends. He takes easily to paternity, as, rather oddly, does Dick, and he is dismayed when the baby's actual mother turns up to claim the ownership of her small charge and finds he has no connection with it.
2I Love Paris... When I Get There
Duncan is planning to take Kate for a romantic weekend in Paris but has to deliver a kidney for a transplant at St. Swithins and gets Dick to drive him there. Unfortunately Dick's crazy driving attracts police attention and Duncan has to hitch a lift with a family on holiday but they have to stop when their son is sick. Fortunately an R.A.F. helicopter comes to Duncan's rescue but the weekend still looks to be doomed.
3Money Spasms
Duncan is shocked to find himself overdrawn at the bank, thanks to Dick's 'borrowing' his credit card to gamble on the horses. He lost and, as Andy MacKenzie is also in need of funds, the three doctors volunteer to be paid guinea pigs at a scientific research unit. This involves testing a new muscle relaxant, with which they are injected. Being so relaxed has dire results when they return to work at St. Swithins.
4What's in a Name?
Duncan panics when physiotherapist Eleanor Wilcox comes to work at the hospital. Some while ago, returning from a conference, he had a one night stand with her but said his name was Dick Stuart-Clark, to prevent Kate finding out. Now he must keep up the pretence with Dick pretending he is Duncan. In fact Kate knew about it all along but had also had a similar fling with a male physiotherapist.
5The War of the Wards
Dick hopes to win a new car in a slogan-writing contest. So does Mr. Wilkes, a butcher admitted with a suspected gallstone. Sir Geoffrey and Duncan feel that an operation to remove it is warranted. Chief physician Professor Avery feels that this is unnecessary - it can be removed by other means. Andrew MacKenzie agrees with him - leading to a war of the wards, though ultimately it turns out that the 'gallstone' is actually a shadow on the X-ray.
6For Your Own Good...
Gervaise Gascoigne, the pompous, rude and very wealthy father of James, arrives as a patient at the hospital and manages to irritate everybody, including his son, whom he refers to as Florence Nightingale. Dick tries to fleece him in a gambling scam but Gervaise is too canny to be had and turns the tables on him. Even Sir Geoffrey is not immune from old Gascoigne's withering comments as Alicia, Gervaise's wife, once had a fling with him.
7Bunny Makes the World Go Round
Duncan is desperate to get together five unusual medical cases so that he can present them at an exam. However his frantic efforts to acquire them are somehow misunderstood so that he ends up, not with medical anomalies but cute soft toys, as fluffy bunnies and cuddly Teddy bears fill up his ward - a fact which is not going to endear him to Loftus.
8Loftus the Terrible
Sir Geoffrey is in a constant foul mood, worse than anybody has ever seen him in before, barking at staff and patients alike. Knowing that he has always had a soft spot for Duncan, his colleagues put Waring forward as the natural peace-maker. He discovers that his boss's black mood is down to his having had a row with his wife, as a result of which they are not speaking to each other. Helped by Kate, Duncan resolves to patch things up between the couple.
9A Turn for the Nurse
The funds from the Entertainments Committee seem to have disappeared and so a new means of raising cash is required. What about a beauty contest to find the prettiest nurse? Dick fixes it that Nurse Reynolds will win it and then return the winnings to him for the fund but Duncan suspects that this is another of Dick's dishonest scams and talks the nurse out of it. With no 'plant' to win the money, there is only one solution - Duncan must drag up as the prettiest nurse, attracting the attention of Sir Edmund Steele from Highcross at the same time.
10M*A*T*C*H
Saturday afternoon war breaks out in the doctors' common room. Duncan, Dick and Andy want to watch football on the television but Gascoigne wants to see an old film and, for a while, gets his way, thanks to Sir Geoffrey. When Dick tries to persuade Gascoigne that the set has broken down, two repairs men arrive to take it away for mending. Gascoigne, however, has the last word by sending the others a set with no internal workings, just a football on a piece of string inside it.
11California Girl
Californian girl Kirby Allen comes to St. Swithins. Her father is a millionaire and Sir Geoffrey hopes that he will contribute an expensive scintillascope to the hospital. But father must be kept sweet so, although Dick, Andy and Duncan are all smitten by Kirby, they must not molest or antagonize her in any way. Strangely enough, she has no interest in any of them and only has eyes for James Gascoigne, who appears to be scoring with her.
12Sunday Bleeping Sunday
It's Sunday and Duncan has just completed a punishing night shift and is exhausted. It's also his birthday but everybody, even Kate, has forgotten the fact. He really could do with a little peace and quiet but Sir Geoffrey, who gets him to buy him lunch, and Dick, smarting because he has failed to get a date with new nurse Nerida, only manage to get in his way. Not to mention the bleeper going off. What's a guy to do to earn a day of rest?
13Happy Ever After
Duncan and Kate announce that they are getting married. Dick wants to organize a reception at the bar for them but Andy, whose own marriage failed, cannot understand why they should wish to tie the knot. To escape the attentions of their colleagues they decide to have a very quiet ceremony at a registry office with no guests but, at the end of the day, do not go through with it.
