However, it was his phone that caught people’s eye.

“I can read – no problem, but I’m no good at spelling. I’ll have to read it and you write it.”

Tom became emotional as the vet’s own dog Keira desperately needed an operation to save her life.

“Oh, she’s bound to pull through,” Tom told Anne Marie. “You can’t have a dog dying on the television.”

However, the rest of the episode detailed how vet Neil could save Keira the dog’s life.

Keira’s injuries included her pelvis being crushed.

Neil had to decide whether he would be performing the surgery on his own dog – and fortunately he opted to.

“Well he better do, he’s the bloody Supervet isn’t he?” Tom told Anne Marie.
