There are seriously worrying times ahead for local vicar Ashley Thomas, as an insight into a dark night for him was shown as part of the flashback episode.
It emerged that Ashley has been told he could be exhibiting signs of the early onset of Alzheimer’s.
In recent weeks, we have seen Ashley become increasingly forgetful, with incidents including forgetting to book Sandy a taxi and missing a meeting with grieving Eric.
After doing some tests with Dr Bailey, Ashley’s results were inconclusive but he pressed the doctor for a theory and was left fearful after hearing the news.
