Throughout the episode, Faith (Sally Dexter) spent quality time with loved ones including daughter Chas, (Lucy Pargeter) daughter-in-law Moira Barton (Natalie J. Robb), friends Diane Sugden (Elisabeth Estensen) and Eric Pollard (Chris Chittell) , grandson Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter) and great-granddaughter Sarah Sugden (Katie Hill), who she supported during her own health battle years earlier.

Faith calls over Nate for a chat and to ask if he will assist her up the stairs and into bed.
