Spoilers: Luca opens up to Jamie after Billy death trauma in Doctors

Although generally a cheerful character, nurse, Luca McIntyre (Ross McLaren) has never really got over the death of his boyfriend, Billy, in a terrible car crash around the time Luca first appeared in Doctors two years ago.

Occasionally, Luca is reminded of this traumatic past incident, something which throws him totally off balance.

This week, Luca is helping his friend, Jamie Clayton (Zak Ghazi-Torbati) move into his new apartment. The mood is light. Having loaded some of Jamie’s stuff into the first van, Jamie starts to drive it. Luca makes fun of Jamie’s driving, asking jokingly how he ever passed his test. As they arrive at a junction, the mood darkens. Jamie is cut off and has to swerve to avoid an accident. Jamie laughs the incident off but Luca is frozen.

They decide to sit by the side of the road and have a cuppa while Luca explains why he was so upset.

He explains about the accident and the death of Billy and says he hadn’t felt confident enough to discuss the issue with Jamie before.

He has only met Jamie quite recently and had momentarily felt he might be about to lose him in the same way.

Jamie is glad Luca has told him the whole story and is generally comforting and sympathetic.
