All BBC Casualty spoilers for this week as character debates exit
Iain Dean (Michael Stevenson) is a man with many strings to his bow in Casualty. After spending years working as a paramedic, he is now training as a member of the Hart team. Alongside this, Iain is putting his detective skills to the test, seemingly convinced he can work out who is responsible for the drugs theft and tampering going on in the hospital. His focus at the moment is on his best mate but in this week's episode, a new discovery means Iain is looking in the wrong place. Will he work out the truth? Elsewhere, Ngozi Okoye (Adesuwa Oni) learns some news from her son, forcing her to potentially make a life-changing decision. Also, Flynn Byron (Olly Rix) has a lot on his mind during his latest shift. He later heads out all alone, as we learn he is hiding a secret from his colleagues in the ED. We're now over halfway into the latest boxset Supply and Demand. With some storyline arcs reaching huge turning points, others are only just beginning. Here's everything you need to know about this week's episode of Casualty. Flynn isn't his usual self at work and seems unusually concerned about leaving his shift on time. Stevie Nash (Elinor Lawless) wonders if Flynn has a date but when he snaps at her, she realises there's something going on with him. Later, Flynn races to a graveside and places some flowers down. It's someone's anniversary, but who is he mourning? Ngozi overhears Nicole's (Sammy T Dobson) phone call and worries she's moving away. Ngozi is frosty with Nicole after this, but when she spots that a baby needs cataracts, Nicole compliments Ngozi on her good work. After learning that Nicole has no intention of moving away, Ngozi finds son Obi outside. He reveals that he's deeply unhappy in England, and wants to go back to Nigeria. But will Ngozi leave? Acting on his suspicions, Iain confronts Jacob (Charles Venn) about the missing morphine. He takes offence that Iain would accuse him of stooping so low, and a fight breaks out between the friends. Teddy (Milo Clarke) and Jacob are then called to a shout at a leisure centre, where a swimmer is experiencing breathing problems. Teddy notices a chlorine leak, leading to the evacuation of the pool, and the arrival of Iain and the rest of the HART team. Things are tense, but Jacob and Iain need to form a temporary truce and work together. Iain heads into the building to rescue a lifeguard, but he realises a child is stuck inside as well. He risks his life to save her, knowing his oxygen tank is running low. After a scary situation involving Iain, he realises that Jacob isn't the morphine thief. He also reveals to Iain that he's been working a side job as a takeaway driver to afford Blake's private prescription. Unfortunately though, as they get back to the ED, they realise that Faith (Kirsty Mitchell) has reported Jacob for stealing the morphine. Indie (Naomi Wakszlak) and Cam agree to go for a drink after work. As the shift gets underway, Cam treats Bex Cross, who is high on drugs. Moments later, Cam is shocked when Bex accuses him of sexual assault after he fixed her catheter. Although Cam is innocent, Bex genuinely feels assaulted, confused by what she saw due to the drugs. Knowing he is innocent, Rida (Sarah Seggari) approaches Cam and puts him on non-clinical duties until she's completed a full investigation. More Trending This hurts Cam a lot and when Siobhan (Melanie Hill) learns of the development, she gently tells Rida that sometimes management is about having your team's back.

All BBC Casualty spoilers for this week as Siobhan makes worrying realisation
The nurses at Holby ED head out for the night this week in Casualty, and it leads to them landing in serious trouble. The medical drama is returning to our screens tomorrow evening after a short break. We are mid-way through the latest boxset Supply and Demand, and the staff at Holby City Hospital still haven't worked out who is responsible for the drugs crisis. As a result of this, rumours are starting to spread and it leads to Faith Cadogan (Kirsty Mitchell) making an accusation. Also this week, Nicole Piper (Sammy T Dobson) makes a discovery, and Rash Masum (Neet Mohan) makes more progress in his new relationship. Here's what's coming up! Indie (Naomi Wakszlak) and Teddy's (Milo Clarke) tense relationship thaws after Indie manages to calm a high-risk patient who is carrying a hammer. At this point, Teddy is still struggling with his heart pains. As a result, he then puts Indie in a dangerous situation as she's left to deal with the patient alone. Indie then reveals she's been offered a new job in Sheffield, but doesn't want to say goodbye to her friends. She decides to invite a few of them out for the night including Cam (Barney Walsh) but he says no – he's too tired. Jodie (Anna Chell) picks up on this and tells Cam that was Indie's way of asking him out. It's too late though, as a rejected Indie leaves the ED. At the club, Indie dances with the nurses, Teddy and her pal Badger, who has a stash of pills. They head out together, while Teddy and Jodie enjoy their high. Back at the hospital, Siobhan (Melanie Hill) prepares for the busiest night of the year. She bonds with a teenager called Kiaan, who is showing potential at uni, but has had a drunken accident. Not long after, Siobhan has to fight for Kiaan's life as he passes out. She then panics and realises the party drugs have been cut with Nitazenes, unaware in the moment the nurses have taken some on their night out. Chaos ensues in the ED as Flynn Byron (Olly Rix), Siobhan, Stevie Nash (Elinor Lawless) and the rest of the team battle to save waves of young people who have all fallen victim to the bad batch of party drugs. In an office, Siobhan attempts to get hold of her nurses so they can return and help with the critical incident. Frustratingly though, none of them answer because they're too busy dancing. As Kiaan dies, Siobhan is devastated and takes her anger out on the nurses, who eventually come back into the ED. Siobhan says they all risked their careers for a wild night out, and is further hurt when Teddy, Jodie and Rida (Sarah Seggari) all point out that she can't suspend all of them. Eventually, the nurses apologise to Siobhan and are then left with one question – where is Indie? The answer? She's walking home with Badger, ignoring calls from her pals. Is Indie heading into danger? Faith treats Arlo, who promises he's clean from drugs now, but begs for more pain relief. Faith wonders if he's telling the truth, or if it's an addict seeking more drugs. Faith asks for Stevie's opinion, but Flynn then confronts them both, berating Faith for wasting Stevie's time on a non-emergency patient during a critical incident. After treating a doctor who complains about not receiving any morphine, Faith questions Jacob (Charles Venn) about how much morphine he gave her. She then becomes suspicious that one of the paramedics is giving patients ineffective morphine. Believing Arlo, Faith offers more pain relief and admits her mistake. As her shift ends, Faith confides in Iain (Michael Stevenson), convinced either Teddy, Jacob or Indie have been stealing morphine. Nicole (Sammy T Dobson) is furious when Cassie arrives in the ED with her pal Steph, and they've both been taking drugs. To Nicole's horror, she then realises Cassie is one of the dealers. Steph opens up to Nicole, talking about how she's gifted to the dealers who make the most profit, and that she takes the pills so she doesn't have to feel the abuse anymore. With Cassie expressing her fears of what the gang will do to her if the drugs go missing, Nicole has no choice but to give the pills to the police. She offers Cassie a place to stay after, but she feels betrayed by Nicole and runs off to the gang. Rash's date with Sunny (Jamie Marie Leary) has fallen through and Rida jokes, telling Rash they should go clubbing with them instead. More Trending Rash tells Sunny about the clubbing but she really isn't keen. It leads Rash to admitting that he messed up the tickets for their original booking and didn't want to let her down. Sunny suggests they go to her place instead – and Rash is more than happy to agree!

All BBC Casualty spoilers for next week as contamination ordeal is confirmed
Medical drama Casualty was off air last week due to sport, but our weekly trips to Holby ED will resume this Saturday, as episode 4 of the show's latest boxset Supply and Demand is broadcasted. Characters in the spotlight this time are Iain Dean (Michael Stevenson), Rash Masum (Neet Mohan), Jacob Masters (Charles Venn) and Ngozi Okoye (Adesuwa Oni). Iain's venture into the world of Hart continues, Ngozi battles her addiction, Rash takes a brave step and Jacob makes a discovery when his son arrives in the ED. The drama isn't stopping, so here's everything you need to know about what's ahead in the episode. Iain and Teddy's (Milo Clarke) first day on Hart requires moving a patient called Rhys from a grounded airplane into an EpiShuttle. There's been an outbreak of contagious Marburg, so Rhys needs moving from the plane and into an ambulance. It's a race against time though, as the team hit traffic and Rhys starts to panic. He claims that he has discomfort in his stomach and in his worried state, he tells Iain and Teddy that he doesn't want to die alone. Iain, still trying to ignore the phone call he received in the last episode, cannot help but be reminded of his mum in this moment. Rhys then suffers a seizure and goes into VT. Teddy and Iain know they are at risk of exposure if they treat him, but they don't have any choice. During this moment, Teddy grows convinced that Rhys does not have Marburg. As the cover of the EpiShuttle is lifted, it becomes apparent that Rhys is choking on a balloon of drugs. Tim, Iain and Teddy's boss, then radio's in and confirms Rhys definitely has Marburg. Feeling worried, Teddy reveals to Tim that PPE protocol has also been breached. Meanwhile, at the ED, Rhys' wife Pippa is cornered by the police and she reveals her partner was forced into smuggling drugs. Later, with Teddy decontaminated and Iain next, Dylan Keogh (William Beck) and the team are getting the other balloons of drugs out of Rhys. Suddenly, one splits, and Iain – who has been exposed – jumps in to start compressions. Faith Cadogan (Kirsty Mitchell) then takes blood from Iain in full PPE. She tells him that she's glad he's quite reckless, otherwise he wouldn't have taken a risk with her. Aw, romance. The stress of his day triggers an episode of AVNRT for Teddy. It's a complication of his heart condition and it causes his chest to feel tight. In the back of the ambulance, Teddy is faced with Tim. Teddy isn't keen on facing the fallout of the breach, given how he's feeling, but it makes Tim wonder if he's really got what it takes to be on Hart. In haste, and wanting to get rid of Tim, Teddy quits Hart. Just as Tim leaves, Teddy clutches his chest again but this time, things are much worse. Jacob's son Blake rushes into the ED with little Carter in tow, but focus appears to be more on Blake, who is very agitated. Rash queries whether he's had any changes in medication recently, leaving Jacob to admit that some drugs were recently purchased online. Jacob and Rash head to see Sunny (Jamie Marie Leary) in the pharmacy for answers, but she reveals that Blake's drugs won't be in stock for another 6 months. She says that unless Jacob pays for a private prescription, Blake won't get what he needs. Jacob's left deep in thought – what will he do next? As Dylan continues to support Ngozi in her addiction battle, he offers to be her sponsor. Abel and mum Dee then arrive. Abel has a tension pneumothorax but instead of supporting him, Dee insists that he needs to be more resilient. More Trending As Abel wakes up, Ngozi learns that he was given conversion therapy in an attempt to please Dee. The difficult dynamic between mother and son leaves Ngozi feeling triggered so she moves away, unable to control her emotions. Desperate for a drink, Ngozi later faces Dee again, which leaves her very close to giving into temptation. After the shift, Ngozi heads to another meeting and she finally opens up. Eventually, with the encouragement of the room and Dylan as well, Ngozi feels ready to commit to sobriety.

Ottawa's most delicious street? Wellington West makes a strong case
Reviews and recommendations are unbiased and products are independently selected. Postmedia may earn an affiliate commission from purchases made through links on this page. Article content The 2.3-kilometre stretch of Wellington Street West bounded by Island Park Drive and Somerset Square is dotted with restaurants, bakeries and food businesses. For decades, this strip has been a destination for discerning, food-loving locals, if not necessarily for tourists more enamoured with downtown Ottawa. Article content Article content Article content If you're visiting Ottawa or are a resident wanting to eat well, Wellington Street West has you covered, from classic French soufflés to Montreal-style bagels to Vietnamese banh mi sandwiches. Here's a synopsis, which moves from west to east, of 20 appealing culinary options. Article content Chef-owner Jason Sawision opened his self-described 'approachable fine-dining' restaurant in 2017, and it has evolved to become a popular choice for culinary buffs interested in multi-course tasting menu-type experiences without the heftiest of price tags associated with such sophisticated meals. Here, a three-course table d'hote is $90 per person, while the five-course splurge is $110 per person. Article content Sawision's menus are always in flux, with dishes frequently being added and removed. But he has generally favoured elaborate dishes that teem with interesting flavour combinations and ingredients. Here's just one example, exemplifying Sawision's globe-trotting palate and maximalist approach: Pan-roasted ling cod with char siu glaze, crispy garlic and shallots, Parisian gnocchi, dan dan sauce, zucchini, daikon, celtuce, Brussels sprout petals, and five-spice fish jus. One constant at Stofa is the option of a signature soufflé for dessert, which can be a classic counterpoint to the innovative and even mind-boggling dishes that precede it. Article content Article content It didn't take long for Supply and Demand to become a neighbourhood favourite soon after it opened in 2013. Its immediate success even included taking fourth spot on the enRoute magazine 2013 list of best new Canadian restaurants. Chef-owner Steve Wall's impeccable small plates and house-made pasta dishes have gone on to win over diners from throughout the city to the point that items such as his tuna crudo and kale salad have become simply iconic for Ottawa's dining scene. The restaurant has landed several times on the annual Canada's 100 Best Restaurants list, most recently coming in 75th in 2024.

Why is Casualty not on tonight and when will it return?
Casualty will not air on BBC One this evening – and you can probably guess why. The medical drama's latest boxset Supply and Demand began a couple of weeks ago. The twelve-parter delves into the realities of a drug crisis as an interruption to the drug supply chain causes the ED to fall under even more pressure. We're three episodes in, but you're sadly going to have to wait another week for the next instalment. Here's everything you need to know… The continuing coverage of Wimbledon will air at 7:15pm this evening on BBC One. It will finish at 10pm, meaning there won't be a place in the schedule for Casualty. You don't have long to wait, as episode 4 of the boxset will air on July 11. Phew! Last week, Iain Dean's (Michael Stevenson) training at Hart was seriously impacted when he received an important phone call. As a result of having this on his mind, he failed a training exercise. More Trending Also, Flynn Byron (Olly Rix) clashed with Dylan Keogh (William Beck) when he expressed his opinion on addicts. Rida Amaan (Sarah Seggari) started her new job as a Band 6 nurse, and Ngozi Okoye's (Adesuwa Oni) alcohol addiction seriously impacted her shift.
