In May 2016, Amanda Mealing posted a photo on Twitter revealing the front page of the script, at which point it was listed as episode 10 of the series. It ended up being the ninth episode as a result of the anniversary episode airing as a feature length, rather than two separate episodes.[1]
Synopsis
Robyn arrives at work in a state - she still hasn’t found Glen. As she realises that Glen doesn’t want to be found, she asks Dylan to help her get an appointment for termination.
David finds Robyn in agony in the toilet and thinks she’s having a miscarriage. Dylan and David check the baby for a heartbeat; it’s tense and doesn’t look good. David realises the volume is down on the Doppler as Robyn hears the heartbeat. Will this change her feelings about a termination?
Elle offers Ethan two tickets to a hospital awards night. Caleb wants to take them off his hands as he’s keen to take Alicia, but Ethan didn’t think he was interested in her and refuses to give him both. Instead he plucks up the courage to ask Alicia to the awards himself... but will she accept?

In early July 2016, Amanda Mealing posted a photo on Twitter during the filming of the episode, indicating that episodes post 30th anniversary were filmed approximately 4 months in advance.
