Susan (Jackie Woodburne) thought it may be good for Xanthe (Lilly Van Der Meer) to work at the hospital again to boost her confidence.
But her plan came unstuck – thanks to her own husband.
While working at the hospital, Dr Karl (Alan Fletcher) asked Xanthe about some missing drugs.
She took it as an accusation because he hadn’t questioned anyone else.
She asked how she was meant to go back to work knowing everything she did was being watched.
Her angry reaction didn’t go down well with Karl.
“No one is trying to get rid of you,” he said. “But if you’re going to behave like this I think you should go home.”
Xanthe just can’t catch a break at the moment!
