Archangel

Dennis Waterman and former Corrie actress Georgia Taylor guest star in this special festive edition of the popular rural drama. He plays a retired mountaineer still grieving over his son's death in a climbing accident, who gets a pleasant surprise when his student daughter (Taylor) returns for the holidays. But an even bigger shock is yet to come - not only is she pregnant, but the father-to-be is the very man her dad blames for her brother's demise. Meanwhile, the local women grow fed up with their menfolk when they arrive back from a booze run the worse for drink, prompting them to hang up their aprons and hand over all the Christmas organisation to the fellas. Beth doesn't know what to think when a patient predicts the new year will bring her and Tom the joy they have longed for, and romance is in the air for David and Anna.
