Monday 13 October 1.45-2.15pm BBC ONE www.bbc.co.uk/doctors Graham Capelli, a cult TV star from the Eighties, has the chance of a second burst of glory in Australia, but needs a health check before he goes, as the drama set in a Midlands medical centre continues. After seeing Mike at the surgery, he is determined to prove how fit he is but ends up injuring himself. When Graham ends up back at the surgery, Mike discovers the second chance of fame is actually a ruse set up by Graham's wife to make him feel wanted again. Meanwhile, it's the day of Nick's funeral, and everyone attends except for Mike, who stays at the Mill. The funeral is not what they were expecting, as Caroline explains that Nick wanted a touch of glamour. Back at the Mill, Mike offers to take Michelle to Blackpool for a few days. She tries to play it cool before accepting. Later, Ronnie tries to reassure Jimmi, who guesses that Eva is on a job and is anxious about her. Eva, meanwhile, realising that Jack is less likely to open up to her because of her relationship with Ronnie, tells him that it's all over between them as she has discovered he is married. This cheers Jack up and he sacks a relieved Ronnie. Graham Capelli is played by special guest star Sylvester McCoy, Mike by James Carlton, Caroline by Rae Baker, Michelle by Donnaleigh Bailey, Ronnie by Sean Gleeson, Jimmi by Adrian Lewis Morgan, Eva by Angela Lonsdale and Jack by James Gaddas.

I remember Sylvester MCCoy from Vision On many years ago. I don`t know why, but he and the professor used to scare the living daylights out of me when I was a kid.

It hasn't got any better since the last time I saw this but Sylv was excellent and I did love the subtle DW references. I laughed when Vivien said he was Jon Pertwee. LOL!
But look - Amii MacDonald!!!! Bloody hell! She had work done or what? She's still instantly recognisable. It's weird. She was always on TV during my childhood then, like so many, vanished. Great to see she's still alive! LOL!
