Lee
will soon be taking centre stage in a long-running depression
storyline, which kicks off when his sister Nancy notices that he isn't
himself.
After Nancy discovers the full extent of Lee's inner
turmoil, she urges him to speak to their father Mick about
it rather than suffering in silence.
Nancy even seizes an
opportunity to head out with their mum Linda so that Lee has some time
to speak to Mick about his problems. Unfortunately, various dramas at
The Vic leave Mick distracted and make it difficult for Lee to speak up.
When
Lee realises that he has accidentally left the door open at the pub and
Lady Di has escaped, a hassled Mick is infuriated and it's left to Lee
to track down the Carters' beloved dog.

Once Lady Di has been brought back home, Lee makes another attempt to
speak to his father but ends up playing the role of confidant himself
when Mick opens up over his own private fears.
Nancy gets angry
when she returns home and realises that Lee still hasn't said anything
to Mick, but as she tries her best to force him, the situation starts to
spiral out of control as Lee pushes her and she falls down.
There's yet another distraction for Lee when Cindy Williams does a disappearing act
and he joins the attempts to find her, but his girlfriend Whitney Dean soon realises that all is not right with him.

but he admits that he is scared to see a doctor as he doesn't want to
lose his job. Can Whitney talk him round?
