Fresh from his spell as ship's surgeon on the MS Bergonia, Duncan Waring returns to St. Swithin's with Dick in tow.

Duncan is asked to give a second opinion on one of the prisoners at Pentonville.

In celebration of Sir Geoffrey's twentieth anniversary at St. Swithin's, Duncan and his colleagues plan a surprise for him.

As St. Swithin's prepares to launch its own radio station, Duncan is asked to be responsible for its running.

When Duncan loses a large sum of money he raised at a charity dance, he has to go to extraordinary lengths to prevent Loftus finding out.

When Duncan learns he has to take an important exam to hold on to his job, he has the arduous task of finding somewhere quiet to study.

Whilst working at a careers convention, Dick stumbles on a cushy, well-paid job at a hotel, and decides to pack his bags and leave St. Swithin's.

With an increased workload, Duncan's tiredness causes him to make a terrible mistake... or does it?

The doctors are finding it increasingly difficult to share their small office between the five of them and apply for smaller desks.

Psychiatry seems to be the only solution to Duncan's depressing problem.

After a playful incident in the office, Duncan and Dick are forced to consult an osteopath.

Duncan and Kate are getting on very well. But when Duncan starts to mention marriage, he could be putting it all in jeopardy.
