Luca McIntyre, portrayed by Ross McLaren, made his first appearance on 24 February 2021.[2] Luca is a nurse that gets into an argument with his former practice manager Noah Levi (Alun Raglan) after he puts the care of patient Mavis Gregg (Melanie Kilburn) above the paperwork tasks set by Noah. After Noah is homophobic to Luca, he decides to hand in his resignation at the surgery. He is hired by Bear Sylvester (Dex Lee) in order to replace former practice nurse Ayesha Lee (Laura Rollins) following her departure from the Mill.[3] Luca suffers from flashbacks to a car accident where his boyfriend Billy Parker (Daniel Cornish) was killed.
McLaren's casting on Doctors was announced on 15 February 2021, with descriptions of episodes hinting that Luca has a "connection" to the Mill.[2] McLaren's acting credits confirmed that he had been contracted as a series regular on the soap.[4] He expressed his joy at appearing on the soap, describing the first time being on set as "surreal".[5] McLaren recalled that when he arrived at the Selly Oak set for his audition, he saw cast member Elisabeth Dermot Walsh filming, and thought to himself: "I want to be doing that so badly".[5] He stated that he was nervous when he began filming for the soap in November 2020, and said that it felt "like forever" waiting for his episodes to begin airing.[5] He added that his family were excited to see him appear on Doctors too, with his grandmother being a regular viewer and his mother starting the series for him. Prior to joining the cast, he knew co-star Dex Lee from when the pair appeared in a stage production of Kiss Me, Kate together.[5]
Luca is described as having "great bedside manner, and a killer smile to boot".[6] On his character, McLaren stated that Luca formerly worked at a doctor's surgery in Coventry, and transfers to the Mill due to having "quite an experience there" and wanting a fresh start.[6] He described Luca as "a lovely guy who cares a lot about his patients" and noted that he is willing "to go the extra mile" in order to help someone.[6] He added that his character is "a little bit cheeky".[6] In some of his first scenes, Luca attends a team-building session with colleagues at the Mill, which McLaren stated was a "lovely" way to become acquainted with his co-stars.[5] In an introduction video on the Doctors social media channels, McLaren explained that Luca had a "very religious upbringing" which would be explored in later scenes.[6] He added that Luca does not drink, which would also be explored, and that Luca is a fan of drum and bass music.[6]

He learns that receptionist Valerie Pitman (Sarah Moyle) has worked with Miranda, and asks for intel on her. Valerie tells Bear that Miranda is "a terrible manager and a real bully".[9] Bear accidentally reveals this to Miranda, who he believes is somebody attending the meeting like him.[8]
Following the meeting, Bear invites her to visit the Mill to talk about her new patient consultation scheme. When Valerie meets her, she assumes that she her personality has changed since she saw her. Valerie gives Miranda a tuna sandwich, not knowing that she is allergic to fish.[10] Afterwards, Miranda confronts Valerie in private and insults her. Miranda suggests going for lunch with Bear, where she flirts with him. Despite Bear not returning flirtatious energy, she continues to flirt with him, and whilst at the Mill, receptionist Karen Hollins (Jan Pearson) notices Miranda checking Bear out. She leaves Bear a voicemail telling him that she enjoyed the meal, and would like to go for cocktails with him. Miranda then sends Bear a "rather risque" GIF, but insists it is a joke.[11] After Bear tells her that he is not interested in her romantically and wants a professional relationship with her, she dismisses him. Miranda then informs Valerie that she will never see her again.[12]

Occupation | Police sergeant |
Harriet Shelton, portrayed by Carley Stenson, made her first appearance on 28 April 2021.[13] Harriet will be introduced as a police sergeant at Letherbridge Police Station.[14] Stenson began filming for the soap in February 2021,[15] and she confirmed her casting on Instagram on 19 April 2021, where she expressed her gratitude to be appearing on Doctors.[16] Stenson's followers expressed their excitement to see her in the soap, describing her as "the most beautiful policewoman" and stating that they will watch Doctors to see her.[14]
Stenson said that the environment on set is "calm and welcoming" and that working with Walker is an "honour".[15] Her friend, Ali Bastian, appeared in Doctors in 2019 as practice manager Becky Clarke. Bastian learned that Stenson would be in the soap and told her how "amazing" the cast and crew members were, which Stenson was glad to learn is true.[15] Stenson said that since she is pregnant and due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, it has been a challenge for her to find work. She described Harriet's storyline as "cracking", and noted that she was working amongst "highly experienced, impressive actors in such a positive place".[16] Stenson confirmed that the role would be recurring, describing her experience on set as "such a fun journey" in April.[16] In an interview with Inside Soap, Stenson stated that her character is determined and capable of performing her job well, and that she is "one of the lads".[15] She said that viewers will see her "going from strength to strength" professionally, and that eventually, she forms a "camaraderie and trust" with Rob.[15] She explained that Harriet has "worked her way up the ranks" to become a sergeant and is "massively determined" to succeed in the job role.[15] Stenson also talked about the uniform she is required to wear as part of the role, stating that it hides her baby bump well. She likes wearing the police gear for the role and said that she enjoys playing a police officer, but joked that she would not be a good police officer in real life.[15]
When she arrives at Letherbridge Police Station, Rob Hollins (Chris Walker) "doesn’t exactly give Harriet a warm welcome".[17] Rob is unhappy about having to mentor Harriet, but they are thrown into working together when they are put on a case with each other.[17] Since they do not initially get along, Harriet makes an effort to know Rob. She learns about Rob and wife Karen Hollins' (Jan Pearson) foster work, and when they get along, Rob invites her to a quiz night.[18] Whilst on a crime scene, Rob pauses and Harriet is forced to cover for him; she asks why he blanked and he claims that it was a moment of old age. Rob later opens up to Harret, explaining that he suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder due to a traumatic event at work years ago. Harriet lends her support to Rob, stating she will always be there for him.[19] When Harriet and Rob are chasing criminals Aaron Jeffries (Zak Douglas) and Lenny Calhoun (Nicholas Chambers), Harriet finds Rob standing over the body of Aaron, who is laying lifeless at the bottom of a staircase. She questions a clueless Rob on what happened and rushes to help Aaron.[20]
