Not long after the start of the second season in January 1990, solicitor Jennifer St. James departed "E Street" under a cloud, and following this, the legal aid centre was phased out of the series for a while. Also leaving Westside was disgraced Daniel Windsor and his children (except Toni). Youngest son, Tom (Andrew Ferguson), was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer and the family departed for specialist treatment for him in Switzerland. A new character, stylish current affairs Journalist, Kim Talbot (Rebecca Saunders), moved into Westside and started a romance with unlucky widower, Paul Berry. Also giving Lisa a new lease of life following Wheels's (temporary) departure, she began working for Kim at Westside's revived local newspaper, "The Advocate".
