Casualty's Jan Jenning to be caught out by wife Ffion

Casualty spoilers follow.

Casualty's Jan Jenning is set to be caught out by her wife Ffion in upcoming scenes.

In scenes airing later this week, Jan decides to go through with her plan to assist her ex-husband Gethin, who's suffering from motor neurone disease (MND), in dying.

To do this, Jan deliberately leaves a bottle of pills on the table for him to take before she leaves for work.

Jan's shift gets off to a bad start when she and Iain are called out to the scene of a lorry crash, where a heart that was being taken to Holby for a sick child is on board.

What to Read Next

Although Jan is initially preoccupied with Gethin, she jumps straight into action when she is given the organ cooler box and eventually gets the heart to surgeons at Holby.

The child's mother hugs and thanks Jan for getting the heart there, but Jan's relief is cut short when she tries to ring Gethin and he doesn't pick up.

Both Iain and Ffion begin to notice Jan's distant behaviour and question her, though Jan tries to assure them she's fine.

Things go from bad to worse when Iain informs Jan that the child's heart was bruised in the collision, and the patient's mother has decided it was too unsafe to proceed with the operation.

Meanwhile, Dylan has been treating the lorry driver and discovers that the driver knowingly drove with a visual impairment. Dylan tells Jan, who bursts into the room and scolds the driver before she's asked to go home.

Jan expects to find Gethin dead when she walks through the front door, but, to her surprise, he's still alive because he failed the keep the pills down — and Ffion, finding out what Jan has done, is furious.

Ffion is conflicted between her job and her private life, as she knows she should report Jan for assisting Gethin with his potential suicide.

Can their marriage be repaired?
