Thursday 8th May
Determined to nail Holby's most wanted pimp and drug dealer, Toby Wilson, Scott calls for a raid on a brothel, where CID suspect he's also making his young prostitutes sell drugs, in this week's episode of Tony Jordan's fast-paced police drama.
Getting Wilson's team of petrified prostitutes to open up is proving harder than CID anticipated. One of the young girls, Charlie Bailey, has been caught with drugs in her room and CID take her in for questioning. While John and Luke work to get a confession from Charlie, PCs Jake Loughton and Lucy Slater deal with a worried mother, Fiona Glover, whose teenage daughter, Jessica, has gone missing.
Lucy discovers a link between the two cases and it becomes apparent from further interviews with Charlie that Jessica is in serious trouble.
Intrigued to find out why Jake is being so touchy about his transfer to Holby South, Lucy does some secret investigating and finally solves the mystery surrounding the newest member of their shift.
Christian receives an unexpected visit from Miranda, a former drug addict he helped get back on the straight and narrow. Excited at her new lease of life, Miranda confesses that she's not only clean and out of rehab, but she also has a job interview. Christian is delighted at her news, but even happier at the prospect of spending more time with Miranda.
After Jenny suffers a pregnancy scare, she tells Christian he'll be taking over the shift as Acting Inspector from now on and, with minimum fuss, she leaves the station without saying goodbye to her beloved team.

Last week's episode:
Thursday 1st May
It's new boy PC Jake Loughton's first shift at Holby South but his first day at the precinct isn't running as smoothly as he'd hoped, as Tony Jordan's fast-paced police drama continues. Lucy is in charge of helping him settle in but she is finding it difficult to be paired with someone so soon after Robert's death. As Lucy tries to make friends with her new colleague she becomes increasingly annoyed when he insists on patronising her. Their focus is quickly brought back on the job when they're caught up in a case investigating two robbers on a smash-and-grab spree.
Back at the station, a rowdy group of drunken women is brought in after their night on the town ended in a brawl.
PC William Jackson is embarrassed to discover that his estranged mother, Linda, is amongst the gang.
Meanwhile, keen to secure time away from the stresses of her job and family, Jenny joins John's wife, Kate, and Luke's wife, Mandy, on a girls' night out. The girls are surprised to see Scott arrive at the bar after what turned out to be a disastrous blind date. Mandy and a heavily pregnant Jenny decide to call it a night, leaving Kate alone with Scott. Against her better judgement, she stays for another drink.
Following his declaration of love, Neil has an awkward start to the evening's shift with Kelly. They are assigned to a long evening's stake out, which doesn't make the frosty atmosphere any better. Neil doesn't regret admitting his feelings for his colleague but, when Kelly finally opens up, he's far from prepared for her honest admission.
