While the latest episode of Casualty had plenty of highs, after the CQC allowed Holby City General to pass its latest inspection with flying colours, next week's episode sees everything come crashing down.

The final episode of the Learning Curve boxset, which airs next week, opens up with several members of staff at a funeral, with Stevie Nash (Elinor Lawless) delivering a eulogy, while a tearful Iain Dean (Michael Stevenson) looks on.

Elsewhere, it's a major day for Iain and Faith Cadogan (Kirsty Mitchell) as their baby finally arrives, but will everything go smoothly for the delivery?

It's also a big day for Matty Linlaker (Aron Julius) as he weighs up whether to accept the clinical fellowship following the unexpected resignation of Kim Chang (Jasmine Bayes).
