The Shallow End

Due to a bomb scare at the General, the hospital is overrun with patients. New doctors are introduced. Phil Kirkby (played by Andrew Clover) is eager, but tries too hard to impress.

Dr. Collin is no longer a beginner and is now one of the experienced doctors. He is now married, and is often taking personal phone calls from his wife, Alison. The hospital manager Alex Legg (from series 1) makes a brief appearance, only to be killed off from a heart attack. Adrian DeVries (Jack Fortune) is the new consultant surgeon - he can perhaps be seen as this series' replacement for Mr. Betancourt.

Its rolling hills, gated mansions, sophisticated prep schools, and exclusive country clubs all serve to keep the area invitation-only. Sprinkled throughout this community are a handful of old-line, wealthy African-American families who have historically broken racial barriers to provide a life of privilege for their children. The Real Housewives of Potomac follows the upscale lives of six intriguing, well-to-do women: Gizelle Bryant, Katie Rost, Karen Huger, Charrisse Jackson-Jordan, Robyn Dixon, and Ashley Darby, all of whom have fought for their places in this society by way of legacy or marriage. In a town where entry is granted only through class, pedigree, and lineage, how far will these ladies go to secure their spot at the top of this prestigious circle?
