Dr Turner and Sister Julienne are reminded this week of the importance of childhood screening programmes when the daughter of one Poplar resident shows symptoms of a rare medical condition.

Expectant mum Vera Sands’ pregnancy is progressing well but Sister Julienne (Jenny Agutter) is concerned about Vera’s four-year-old daughter, Elaine, who’s still in nappies and doesn’t appear to be developing like other children her age.
