Getting On - Season 3 (2012)

Kim and Den start work on a new geriatric ward with baffling new equipment though Pippa is happy that her divorce has come through and she is launching her project on female genitalia. Former matron Hilary is back in a consultative role and tells Den he is going to be tested for HIV,advising her to do the same after their fling. Whilst Kim and Den argue over whether or not new patient Mrs Dethick is a time waster Den talks of moving on in line with her husband's new job but is shocked to learn that she may be pregnant.

Pippa does her best to impress Dr Kersley and his commissioning consortia with her project Vag-At but has trouble squaring her divorce settlement and is dismayed that desirable Dr Kersley is married. Den tells kindly matron Damaris Clarke of her pregnancy and is delighted to hear of the perks this will give her. She has changed her mind about leaving the area and asks if she can move in with Kim but gets knocked back as Kim wants to devote her time getting an academic degree in nursing. Meanwhile a voluntary care assistant sent by the agency is mistaken for an ...

The hospital embarks on an energy saving initiative which Hilary takes far too seriously,creeping around the ward to turn off electrical appliances and sorting rubbish into different coloured bags though he does give Den a present for her baby. Den tells Kim she cannot be her mentor for her degree course so Damaris steps in instead after a patient who is a doctor has given Kim tips on presentation. Mrs Dethick is readmitted and diagnosed with hypochondria whilst Pippa gets advice from an unexpected source over her divorce settlement.
