CASUALTY fans were left fearing that newbie Susan isn’t genuine as she grew close to David in scenes that aired tonight.

David Hide has struggled to live with the thought of his late son Ollie being responsible for a horrific shooting at school.

But when Susan, one of his former patients who also happens to be an ENT nurse, shows up, David’s day takes an interesting turn.

David is relieved when Susan makes no mention of Ollie and the school shooting as the pair reminisce about how he brought her a mince pie at the hospital years ago while showing sensitivity to her schizoaffective disorder.

Those watching at home are worried she might not be who she says she is and took to Twitter to comment on it.

One person wrote: “Oh Susan (eye patch lady) seems really sweet,hope she ain’t dodgy #casualty.”

A second added: “#Casualty I really hope Susan is genuine and not after the story about Ollie.”

While a third commented: “Aww could romance be on the cards for David and Susan #Casualty.”

Casualty viewers may remember that Ollie Hide (Harry Collett) had gone through a rough time in school as he had been bullied by many of schoolmates.

Eventually, he made friends with another lad called Rob but their friendship became intensely toxic.

The pair agreed to wreak havoc in Carsbury Park High School, making a suicide pact in the process.

But when he entered his former friend Natalia Malinosky’s classroom in search of victims, Ollie spared her and realised the gravity of his actions.

Natalia was eventually shot by Rob and when Ollie admitted he couldn’t go through with shooting himself, his friend took it upon himself to shoot him in the chest at point-blank.

Rob was subsequently surrounded by armed police and mortally wounded while Ollie died of his injuries in the ED after being arrested on suspicion of murder.

Since then, David has dealt with the aftermath of his son’s actions as well as the grief of losing his child.
