In next week’s episodes, Nicola’s husband Jimmy questions her priorities as he urges her to visit Angel in hospital.
Nicola refuses as she’s much more interested in her pursuit of justice. She deludes herself into thinking that she’s doing this for Angel rather than herself.
First stop for Nicola is the local doctors surgery, but Liam Cavanagh warns that there’s no medical evidence to substantiate her claims. This only makes Nicola angrier as she remains determined to punish Moira.
Later, Angel gets involved by urging Nicola to accept that the crash was a simple accident.
