It's mid-March and, with just one more practical placement to pass, our students are trying to cram in as much vital experience as they can. Amazingly, even at this late stage, they're all tackling procedures they've never attempted before. But it could all be a complete waste of time if they don't pass those all-important final exams!

Matt Wilkinson finds himself dealing with the worst job a vet can face, as basset hound Lolly is diagnosed with terminal cancer and her grief-stricken owners need to make the decision whether or not to end her suffering.

Judy Puddifoot is thrown in the deep end by her supervisor during life-saving surgery on a dog with an infected uterus, and she tackles her first chicken consultation!

Amy Clithero learns that dehorning cows is better exercise than a gym session, and gets to roll a cow upside down to cure a twisted stomach.

Charlie Tewson has somehow managed to reach his final placement without learning how to do a very basic operation - spaying a cat. He finally gets his chance to practise on tortoiseshell Tilly - but will he pass muster?

Finally, all our students face their dreaded final exams and find out once and for all whether they've succeeded - or failed - in becoming fully qualified young vets.
