Series 21 delivers a programme presented as an episode, falling under the episode genre. As a standalone instalment, it continues the series’ tradition of offering self‑contained stories, each identified simply by its series and episode designation. Viewers can expect the usual structure associated with this type of programme, without any additional series‑wide arcs being referenced. The central narrative follows a married couple who have taken legal action against the owners of a day‑care facility. They're seeking compensation for the medical expenses incurred after their four‑month‑old baby is said to have suffered a broken leg while under the centre’s supervision. The claim rests on the allegation that the injury occurred during the child's time in the day‑care’s care, prompting the parents to pursue a lawsuit to recover the costs. The lawsuit centres on the reimbursement of the medical bills arising from the infant’s injury. By targeting the day‑care proprietors, the parents've aimed to hold the facility accountable for what they describe as a negligent incident that resulted in their child’s broken limb. The case underscores the dispute over responsibility for the child’s health while in the care of a third‑party provider, and it remains the focal point of the episode’s storyline.
