List of Doctors characters introduced in 2020

PC Jasmine Dajani, portrayed by Lara Sawalha, first appeared on 19 February 2020 and initially left on 7 April 2020. Jasmine is introduced as a love interest for established character Emma Reid (Dido Miles). When Jasmine learns that Emma is undergoing the menopause, she brings her a bouquet of flowers. Jasmine later introduces Emma to her mother, Doris Dajani (Carla Mendonça). When Jasmine and Emma are on a date, they are the subject of homophobic comments from Derek Timbley (Pablo Raybould), and while Emma ignores him, Jasmine argues with him. Afterwards, they leave the restaurant holding hands and kissing, and a gang follows them. Gang leader Blake Atkins (Louis Stannett) makes sexually inappropriate comments, and when Jasmine threatens him, he grabs hold of Emma and assaults her, punching and kicking her. The other two gang members hold Jasmine back, and then punch her. The pair are left on the floor. After the assault, Emma tries to persuade Jasmine to report it to the police, but as Jasmine wants a promotion, she disagrees. Emma then decides that they want different things in life, and breaks up with her.

Jasmine was reintroduced by the soap for an episode in June 2022 after both herself and Emma hear that Blake wants to speak with them as part of a restorative justice programme in his prison. Emma "gets a surprise" after Jasmine asks her to lie to Blake and claim that they're still together. The pair question Blake on why he attacked them but become frustrated when he has no reasoning or answers for his attack on them. Jasmine begins to have a panic attack and she reveals to Emma that since the attack, she began having them frequently. The women have "an honest heart-to-heart" and Jasmine reveals to Emma that she wonders if they did the correct thing in breaking up, but Emma affirms that they were right to do so.
