Hot this week

Sneak preview: we bring you the hottest highlights of the Shortland Street week ahead, right here.

Work has always been the place Dr. Sarah Potts (Amanda Billing) feels most at home.

Returning to the hospital after a study break in Melbourne, Sarah is feeling refreshed and ready to get back into work. But first day back on the job, the symptoms of her MS start to rear their ugly head.

Sarah begins to realise that she may not be able to keep it a secret for much longer, and wonders what will become of her future in ED.

It's ball season and teen dream Sophie McKay (Kimberley Crossman) is dusting off her dancing shoes to attend her high school formal. But Sophie has a difficult decision to make - who will be her lucky Prince Charming?

On the one hand there's Tane Samuels (Dominic Ona-Ariki) who has been confined to a wheel chair since a dramatic car accident in April. But first XV captain Jared Finch (Scott Smart) is vying for her attention. Will Sophie choose friend or fancy to be her date?

Unlike some of the other doctors at SHORTLAND STREET hospital, happily married TK Samuels (Benjamin Mitchell) has failed to fall for the charms of new GP Brooke Freeman (Beth Allen) since his return from Melbourne.

When Brooke misdiagnoses a patient, TK becomes convinced that there's more to it than meets the eye.

Digging deeper, TK is shocked to discover a secret Brooke has been trying hard to keep. Is Brooke even who she says she is?
