But despite this, opportunities for work are waning, and Barbara experiences the biggest test of her career so far when a struggling dockworker's wife is forced into a difficult decision about her impending birth. Meanwhile, keen to improve her language skills, Nurse Crane joins a Spanish class, where she meets widower Tommy; a like-minded gentleman who shares her passion for all things Mediterranean.
