If I recall (from when eps were on KZbin) that Ash was cleared following an ABH trial; following altercation in a&e a thug attempted to attack Ash with a knife & he punched him in self defence. Thugs gang hid the knife & claimed Ash was the perpetrator. Matt (receptionist) gave evidence that acquitted Ash but the thugs gang targeted Matt & his family afterwards. I think they’d had previous run-ins with Matt so it was all intertwined as these things are. Drama channel is currently re-running casualty & has just started series 8. This is series 9.
