Hello. With pushing our health service to the limit and it's

:00:00.:00:09.

starting to show. Services within the hospital and within our

:00:10.:00:12.

community are under particular pressure. If it doesn't get more

:00:13.:00:16.

funding, waiting times are going to get longer.

:00:17.:00:19.

The quality of patient care is going to stuff. The fact that I've had to

:00:20.:00:24.

pay for my treatment is criminal. It is absolutely criminal. I'm sorry.

:00:25.:00:31.

Change is coming. But what's being prescribed? We seeing hospitals

:00:32.:00:36.

close. We're seeing A emerged. Some of these changes are so

:00:37.:00:40.

dramatic, people will oppose them to the death. The change is not easy.

:00:41.:00:46.

Inside Out is back. The doctor will see you now - probably!

:00:47.:00:58.

Thirsty dart things were addicted to in this country - caffeine and the

:00:59.:01:05.

NHS. We expected to be there where ever we are and whenever we wanted.

:01:06.:01:09.

But with more of us living longer, it means that costs are rising at an

:01:10.:01:14.

alarming rate. And that means NHS bosses here in the south facing some

:01:15.:01:18.

tough decisions about which services to cut and which services to keep.

:01:19.:01:29.

The NHS has a huge problem - us. There are more of us, and we are

:01:30.:01:33.

living longer. The average of 55-year-old costs the health service

:01:34.:01:38.

twice as much as a 20-year-old. And over 85s cost three times as much

:01:39.:01:46.

again. Members of the Bournemouth Swimming Club are doing their bit to

:01:47.:01:52.

stay healthy - even when it's 5 degrees outside. It's amazing. I

:01:53.:01:57.

cannot feel my body! After you done this, nothing else in the week seems

:01:58.:02:02.

too bad, really. It gives a real boost the immune system. It's good

:02:03.:02:06.

for the body. But even hardy folk like these need to call on the NHS

:02:07.:02:11.

from time to time. I've been diabetic for about 33 years. I am

:02:12.:02:16.

grateful for the NHS because if it wasn't for them, you know, well, I

:02:17.:02:21.

wouldn't be here. As an ex-nurse, I've seen it's all. When they come

:02:22.:02:25.

into hospital with a bag full of pills. You just don't think about

:02:26.:02:29.

how much it's costing, I guess. But I'm a working man so I guess I'm

:02:30.:02:36.

entitled to that. Here's the thing. The amount of money the NHS has been

:02:37.:02:42.

getting has been going up over time. But the amount of money the NHS

:02:43.:02:47.

actually needs to keep us all fit and healthy has been going up like

:02:48.:02:51.

this. And by 2020 it is estimated there will be a funding difference

:02:52.:02:59.

of ?22 billion. Here in the south, our share of the

:03:00.:03:02.

shortfall adds up to ?2.2 billion a year. In the entire health budget

:03:03.:03:12.

for the Isle of Wight is only 215 million. The meeting the soaring

:03:13.:03:15.

costs of health care in the south would require cutting the island's

:03:16.:03:18.

health services more than ten times over. The island's well aware of the

:03:19.:03:25.

cost of caring for an ageing population. A quarter of its

:03:26.:03:30.

residents are pensioners. The NHS here faces a ?52 million shortfall

:03:31.:03:35.

by 2020. So they're trying to make some radical changes.

:03:36.:03:40.

We've had the phone call through the 111 service, and they've asked us to

:03:41.:03:43.

come out and see you. Lousi leads the Isle of Wight crisis

:03:44.:03:49.

response team. To keep hospital admission down, they're bringing the

:03:50.:03:53.

NHS to your door. These three are practically dead

:03:54.:03:56.

now. It started on that hand as well.

:03:57.:04:00.

90-year-old Joan has severe arthritis, which means caring for

:04:01.:04:03.

her 94-year-old husband is a struggle. Their house also poses

:04:04.:04:08.

some risks. Oh, yes. I see. When was the last

:04:09.:04:14.

fall that your husband had? Actually, he had won about three

:04:15.:04:17.

days ago. I had to call the neighbour.

:04:18.:04:21.

Our job is to keep people out of hospital safely and independently in

:04:22.:04:23.

their rain residence. I'm just going to pop it in your

:04:24.:04:30.

ear, take your temperature. We have nurses, occupational therapists and

:04:31.:04:32.

We have the luxury of having more We have the luxury of having more

:04:33.:04:35.

time in the emergency services and GPs have got, so we can go in and

:04:36.:04:42.

look at keeping these people at home.

:04:43.:04:44.

Lousi provides a carer to come and help with the morning and a builder

:04:45.:04:49.

to sort out the back step. The local council will pick up the tab on the

:04:50.:04:53.

basis that prevention is better and cheaper than cure.

:04:54.:04:57.

We can get that all sorted out for you, can't we? Thank you. We can get

:04:58.:05:02.

people so you're not struggling on your own, all right?

:05:03.:05:08.

The island's health services reviewing everything it does to be

:05:09.:05:14.

cost-effective. And you keep people healthy and out of Saint Mary's

:05:15.:05:18.

Hospital, the only one on the island. Lucy's office as part of the

:05:19.:05:23.

process. It's now an integrated care hub. It's home to council workers

:05:24.:05:29.

and charity staff, as well as the NHS.

:05:30.:05:34.

The 999 and 111 calls coming to this centre here on the island, and we

:05:35.:05:37.

have generically trained staff who are able to answer both sets of

:05:38.:05:39.

calls. Have you ever had a leg ulcer?

:05:40.:05:44.

Solar putting everyone in the same room so they can talk face-to-face?

:05:45.:05:48.

So they can actually talk to each other.

:05:49.:05:50.

The district nurse said she is bleeding from her right ear. When

:05:51.:05:55.

the call comes into here, we decide on what services need to actually

:05:56.:05:58.

attend that. When you think an ambulance call costs ?202 per call,

:05:59.:06:05.

here on the island we have saved over 1000 of those Popa. The IM's

:06:06.:06:08.

NHS says it joined up approach of saving money. But money isn't the

:06:09.:06:18.

only problem. The hospital is full. Saint Mary's

:06:19.:06:25.

is on black alert. That means there's no room for new patients.

:06:26.:06:29.

They're going to tell us he's got increased wounds.

:06:30.:06:34.

It's a serious incident, and it's worryingly common. Last year, the

:06:35.:06:38.

alert. alert.

:06:39.:06:43.

It's a surge of services within the trust, within the hospital and

:06:44.:06:47.

within our community services. They're under particular pressure.

:06:48.:06:50.

Hospitals should have enough spare beds to cope.

:06:51.:06:54.

But in Saint Mary 's, they sometimes don't. Patients who could be at home

:06:55.:06:59.

get stuck in hospital, because community care services already at

:07:00.:07:03.

capacity. We are in difficulty. We have had to

:07:04.:07:07.

slow down access to planned care, so two operations, to enable us to

:07:08.:07:12.

manage the flow through our emergency department.

:07:13.:07:17.

Lack of beds meant 400 cancelled operations last year. The hospital

:07:18.:07:22.

was ?4 million overspend. Tough times for chief executive Karen

:07:23.:07:26.

Baker. You've innovated, you're trying

:07:27.:07:29.

different things, and here we are on black alert. Absolutely we are. And

:07:30.:07:33.

I guess that's the pressure - that's the pressure in the system. We know

:07:34.:07:36.

at the moment that we're not looking after people in the community as

:07:37.:07:41.

well as we could be. When there was people are not accessing different

:07:42.:07:45.

going to see their pharmacist, being going to see their pharmacist, being

:07:46.:07:48.

cared for by the community teams. All of those things are available

:07:49.:07:53.

and we need to make sure people are unaware and ultimately that will

:07:54.:07:56.

save money in the system. But the worry is the pressures are

:07:57.:07:59.

increasing faster than the solutions that can be found for it. They're

:08:00.:08:03.

still a queue at both doors. You're absolutely right. The answer is we

:08:04.:08:08.

continue to work on those solution. Pub managers here believe it of

:08:09.:08:12.

working methods can bridge the financial gap. But across the whole

:08:13.:08:16.

of the self, ?2.2 billion needs to be found by 2020. -- health managers

:08:17.:08:23.

here. Some health analysts like Roy Lilley, himself a former Trust

:08:24.:08:27.

chairman, so the changes needed will be radical and unpopular.

:08:28.:08:31.

If we want to save 2.2 billion, with God to stop doing things. We will

:08:32.:08:37.

seem hospitals closed, we will see A merged. GPs surgeries will have

:08:38.:08:41.

to be merged and put together. The Public were like that. The real

:08:42.:08:45.

solutions are the ones that are really painful. -- the public won't

:08:46.:08:50.

like that. The Isle of Wight faces a challenge

:08:51.:08:53.

because of its older proportion of older residents, but it's a crystal

:08:54.:08:55.

ball for the rest of the South. In ball for the rest of the South. In

:08:56.:08:59.

the rapidly ageing population, in 20 years' time the region's age profile

:09:00.:09:05.

is set to match the island's. So to help the NHS, we all need to do our

:09:06.:09:08.

bit. If I had a message for the public,

:09:09.:09:12.

it would be there's a lot. If you smoke, that they daft idea because

:09:13.:09:16.

that costs the NHS a fortune. If you're overweight, lose weight

:09:17.:09:20.

because that leads to obesity and cardiac problems. But we know these

:09:21.:09:23.

messages. I'm not telling you anything that we all don't know. How

:09:24.:09:28.

do we make people do? I don't know, but we really have got to take

:09:29.:09:33.

better care of ourselves. Back in Bournemouth, the Spartan

:09:34.:09:40.

swimmers are doing just that. A year ago, I was crippled with

:09:41.:09:47.

depression. And in the last six or seven weeks I've made leaps and

:09:48.:09:51.

bounds. And a lot of it is in part of this. There were fireworks going

:09:52.:09:59.

off in your brain. It makes you feel amazing, it really does. It makes

:10:00.:10:00.

you feel alive. You know, and I you feel alive. You know, and I

:10:01.:10:11.

encourage anybody to give it a try. Still to come, how we can help get

:10:12.:10:17.

the NHS back on its feet. Walking is the single most important

:10:18.:10:20.

thing that everyone can do for their health.

:10:21.:10:26.

As ever, I'd love to hear what you think. You can always drop me an

:10:27.:10:32.

e-mail at the below address. Next, does where you live matter more than

:10:33.:10:36.

ever now when it comes to the provision of health care? Chris

:10:37.:10:42.

Jackson has been investigating. The NHS is facing the most

:10:43.:10:45.

significant financial challenge in its history. There are fears the

:10:46.:10:50.

service were growing up with is beginning to fragment.

:10:51.:10:56.

It's not a National Service. Absolutely, there is a postcode

:10:57.:11:00.

lottery. It's criminal. It is absolutely

:11:01.:11:03.

criminal. This is the start. It's going to get

:11:04.:11:09.

worse. So, it is the NHS in danger of

:11:10.:11:14.

ceasing to be a National Service where everyone is entitled to the

:11:15.:11:18.

same care? It is treating more patients, but is it becoming a

:11:19.:11:21.

postcode lottery where access can depend on where you live? Were going

:11:22.:11:31.

to put that to the test. On a bad day, it ruins your life.

:11:32.:11:37.

The muscle pain, it feels like my bones are screaming at me at times.

:11:38.:11:44.

33-year-old Ben Franklin has Hepatitis C.

:11:45.:11:45.

The virus can cause life-threatening liver damage.

:11:46.:11:48.

I'm about to lose my job. I haven't been at work since April, I've been

:11:49.:11:54.

off sick. And I could possibly lose my flat.

:11:55.:11:55.

There are new drugs that could potentially cure Ben's Hepatitis,

:11:56.:11:58.

All I got was, you have two worried - basically because my liver wasn't

:11:59.:12:12.

bad enough. That made me want to go out and get absolutely wasted and

:12:13.:12:15.

when my brother just so that they would treat me. I wouldn't do that,

:12:16.:12:19.

but I wouldn't be surprised if nobody else would.

:12:20.:12:21.

The money is there for just over 10,000 treatments.

:12:22.:12:24.

It's claimed that means there are no queues in parts

:12:25.:12:28.

of the North ? and long waits in places like London.

:12:29.:12:33.

Two people will exactly the same state of liver damage could present

:12:34.:12:39.

themselves in different parts of the country, and in one watt able to

:12:40.:12:44.

walk in, get hepatitis C treatment immediately, get to it. In another

:12:45.:12:47.

part of the country they will be told, I'm sorry, you're going to

:12:48.:12:51.

have to do it. This is inherently unfair.

:12:52.:12:52.

NHS England told us it was regularly reallocating unused Hepatitis C

:12:53.:12:55.

treatments to places with waiting lists.

:12:56.:12:56.

The number of patients treated will increase by 25% next year.

:12:57.:13:08.

The fact that it's down to money, that upsets me the most. It's just

:13:09.:13:12.

money. So Ben is taking the risk

:13:13.:13:13.

of treating himself with cheaper How much have you spent on that box?

:13:14.:13:31.

?1300. ?1300 but I don't really have. The fact that I've had to pay

:13:32.:13:37.

for my treatment, it's criminal. It is absolutely criminal. I'm sorry.

:13:38.:13:43.

I'm just tired of being tired. Ben is hoping the generic drugs will

:13:44.:13:59.

cure him within a matter of weeks, and he's not alone. The hepatitis C

:14:00.:14:03.

Trust estimates around 1000 people in Britain may have bought the drugs

:14:04.:14:09.

abroad. If you go outside, there's halos

:14:10.:14:12.

around the lights. Lights and around the lights. Lights and

:14:13.:14:15.

shadows. It's often hard to see things, they're a bit distorted.

:14:16.:14:17.

Gloria McShane has cataracts in both eyes.

:14:18.:14:22.

I can't take stairs, go up or down stairs with any kind of confidence.

:14:23.:14:26.

Cataracts are supposed to be treated within four

:14:27.:14:29.

Gloria, who lives in the North East, says she's been waiting seven.

:14:30.:14:35.

It's too long because there is such potential for accidents, and there

:14:36.:14:43.

is such a change in a person's mood. If Gloria had lived in Luton,

:14:44.:14:45.

her wait could have been Absolutely, there is a postcode

:14:46.:14:58.

lottery. It's not about the clinical need. It's about some places in

:14:59.:15:02.

England having poor systems, having budget pressures, and deep

:15:03.:15:07.

prioritising cataract surgery. That doesn't feel too national to me.

:15:08.:15:09.

Gloria expects to get her operation later this month.

:15:10.:15:15.

It really makes me angry because I think it's almost like survival of

:15:16.:15:19.

the fittest. Clinical Commissioning Groups,

:15:20.:15:20.

or CCGs, control health budgets. It's claimed some are delaying

:15:21.:15:22.

treatments like cataract surgery Others are requiring patients

:15:23.:15:24.

to lose weight before getting Postponing an operation in these

:15:25.:15:41.

circumstances can save money in the short term. And most of the CCG say

:15:42.:15:45.

can be clinically justified, the Royal College of surgeons say it

:15:46.:15:48.

can't. There is a vague evidence that

:15:49.:15:54.

people are now not getting elective operations, which they desperately

:15:55.:15:58.

sometimes require. -- there is very good evidence. Simply because the

:15:59.:16:02.

financial restrictions. It is up to the clinicians to decide who should

:16:03.:16:06.

have what treatments, and therefore a bureaucratic system which produces

:16:07.:16:10.

a blanket ban, we think, is morally wrong.

:16:11.:16:12.

It's also claimed new systems for vetting appointments

:16:13.:16:14.

with specialists are another form of rationing.

:16:15.:16:20.

Why are they treating their patients with such contempt?

:16:21.:16:23.

Last month, MPs complained about a private company

:16:24.:16:25.

being paid ?10 for every GP referral they stopped.

:16:26.:16:31.

This is rationing by the back door. And it has the potential to patient

:16:32.:16:34.

safety. The same private company oversees

:16:35.:16:36.

referrals in North Tyneside. We've spoken to doctors who say the

:16:37.:16:47.

system is putting patients at risk. The GPs, who fear speaking out, have

:16:48.:16:50.

told us that cancer diagnosis are being held up.

:16:51.:17:16.

In a statement, North Tyneside CCG said there was no evidence the

:17:17.:17:21.

system course additional risk or delay. Cancer referrals do not go

:17:22.:17:25.

through the system and are made directly to hospital. The number of

:17:26.:17:29.

referrals knocked back to GPs in England has risen by about 30% in

:17:30.:17:30.

the last two years. You can see the details

:17:31.:17:32.

of our research online. Shortage and regional difference

:17:33.:17:35.

have always been part of the NHS. Today, the differences

:17:36.:17:39.

could get much worse. The NHS is under an unprecedented

:17:40.:17:50.

level of pressure at the moment. If it doesn't get more funding, waiting

:17:51.:17:54.

times will get longer and the quality of patient care is going to

:17:55.:17:58.

suffer. So we will see different decisions taken in different parts

:17:59.:18:00.

of the country, and different of the country, and different

:18:01.:18:02.

services being available to patients.

:18:03.:18:04.

So, is the NHS still a national service?

:18:05.:18:05.

One of our most prominent medics is clear.

:18:06.:18:11.

No, it's not a National Service. It is now a local health service. It

:18:12.:18:18.

matters because it leads to an inequality in health care. Somebody

:18:19.:18:22.

will get health care for free, and others won't.

:18:23.:18:25.

In a statement, the Department of Health told us that far from

:18:26.:18:28.

getting prompt treatment. 3261 more getting prompt treatment. 3261 more

:18:29.:18:34.

cancer patients are being seen every day, and standards of care an

:18:35.:18:38.

improving. We asked the Health Secretary and NHS England for an

:18:39.:18:43.

interview. Both declined. The people actually paying for NHS

:18:44.:18:46.

the clinical commissioners, did the clinical commissioners, did

:18:47.:18:49.

agree to speak. It's a National Service with local

:18:50.:18:54.

variation based on the need of the population. Demographically, the

:18:55.:18:58.

populations vary quite significantly from town, to rubble, to county.

:18:59.:19:02.

It's really important that we respond to that population on a

:19:03.:19:08.

local basis. -- from town, to rural. We don't want to squander any money.

:19:09.:19:12.

We have limited resources. It's really important that we most

:19:13.:19:17.

effectively and get the best value for our population.

:19:18.:19:20.

For those forced to take their own action, rationing appears all too

:19:21.:19:26.

real. Chris Jackson reporting. Don't

:19:27.:19:30.

forget, where one Twitter. You can find out more about the show and see

:19:31.:19:35.

behind the scenes - Paul Dunne - at...

:19:36.:19:42.

-- hold on. Now, it's not all doom and gloom. There are some things we

:19:43.:19:45.

can do to help the NHS. One of them doesn't cost a penny and involves

:19:46.:19:48.

the ancient art of putting this foot in front of this foot.

:19:49.:19:58.

Human beings were designed to sit down all day. We evolved to walk.

:19:59.:20:03.

But modern life means few of us are working enough, and it's making us

:20:04.:20:09.

all. Everyone at South Central Ambulance Service is in the business

:20:10.:20:13.

of saving lives. Tanya speaking, how can I help quiz? I name is Tanya and

:20:14.:20:21.

I been with the service for ten years. I've save five lives. My name

:20:22.:20:28.

is David. I'm 25 years old. I been working here for two years.

:20:29.:20:33.

Whether the patient live? Sitting down a day, like so many of

:20:34.:20:37.

us too, means Tanya and Dave are putting their own health at risk.

:20:38.:20:42.

You get half an hour meal break, but we are supposed to leave the screen

:20:43.:20:45.

every hour for five minutes. But I don't.

:20:46.:20:53.

Walking is the single most important thing everyone can do for their

:20:54.:20:58.

health. Both in the short term and long term. I believe health care is

:20:59.:21:06.

what we do for ourselves, and what I'm prescribing doesn't cost a

:21:07.:21:11.

penny. Sitting at work means you lose fitness, strength, stamina,

:21:12.:21:17.

suppleness and skill. So you've got to build walking into the working

:21:18.:21:20.

day. Have you got your patient's NHS

:21:21.:21:23.

number? It is a secret that many of our

:21:24.:21:26.

health problems are caused by not doing enough exercise.

:21:27.:21:33.

I've got to have a flutter, which I got on the 18th of March 20 13. --

:21:34.:21:41.

arterial flutter. The first one happened here. I was diagnosed as a

:21:42.:21:48.

diabetic. Type II. It's quite good at the moment. I'm

:21:49.:21:52.

keeping in check with good eating, as much exercise as I can. I've got

:21:53.:21:58.

a few problems with my back. It's manageable if I try not to think

:21:59.:22:02.

about! One in four women and one in

:22:03.:22:04.

men do less than half an hour of men do less than half an hour of

:22:05.:22:08.

even moderate activity in whole week. We start ageing from the age

:22:09.:22:16.

of 20. So keeping moving is crucial. Whatever your lifestyle, whether

:22:17.:22:20.

it's 2000 steps a day or 10,000 steps a day, if you walk 3000 extra

:22:21.:22:26.

vital steps a day, you'll transform the way you feel now and reduce your

:22:27.:22:31.

risk of death, disease, disability and dementia. So I've set Tanya and

:22:32.:22:39.

Dave a challenge. Record their daily step count and then up it.

:22:40.:22:47.

So far today I've done... 1065 steps. The time is just after ten.

:22:48.:22:57.

Just after 10:10. On this one, I've done 1470 steps.

:22:58.:23:02.

It took me an hour just to get into work this morning, so that was a lot

:23:03.:23:09.

of it. At this rate, they're going to struggle to clock up the extra

:23:10.:23:15.

3000 steps which I call my Walking Cure. 3000 sounds a lot. It's 30

:23:16.:23:20.

minutes. But we now know it's just as good as three ten minute 1000

:23:21.:23:28.

steps episode. So on the way to work, get off the bus early.

:23:29.:23:32.

Lunchtime, got to get out and do 1000. Then on the way home, do

:23:33.:23:36.

another 1000. That's the way to build it into your lifestyle. Before

:23:37.:23:42.

I challenge Tanya to walk more, lunchtime often involves no more

:23:43.:23:45.

than a few steps to the call centre's kitchen. Those also, like

:23:46.:23:52.

many others, would simply eat a sandwich at his desk. But today he

:23:53.:23:57.

spends of his break out walking. Good on you, Dave. That's perfect.

:23:58.:24:03.

As well as the ten minute additions, in your working day there are things

:24:04.:24:06.

you can do. Obviously, Tanya and David can't stand and walk about.

:24:07.:24:11.

Although I will be speaking to the call standing desks. -- I'll be

:24:12.:24:19.

speaking to the call centres about standing desks. How is this likely

:24:20.:24:25.

to revolutionise - one meetings work very well, particularly if you have

:24:26.:24:32.

something tough to say. I blew to eyeball is not necessarily as good

:24:33.:24:36.

as shoulder to shoulder. -- working meetings. Research things that in an

:24:37.:24:40.

hour, fit for no more than 20 minutes. Stand for eight. And

:24:41.:24:46.

walkabout for two. So if you're busy and have a telephone call to make,

:24:47.:24:53.

why not make it while walking? Hi, I've got ten minutes, so we can

:24:54.:24:57.

catch up. Really nice to speak to you. Where are you? Walking, I hope.

:24:58.:25:03.

I'm convinced there's no easy way to improve our general health than

:25:04.:25:05.

through this. The simplest of activities. OK, that's it. Ten

:25:06.:25:12.

minutes on the phone, ten minutes walking. That's 1000 steps. That's a

:25:13.:25:17.

kilometre. And we're both better off for it. Back at the call centre,

:25:18.:25:22.

after sitting down for almost seven hours solid, it's clocking off time.

:25:23.:25:26.

So how many steps have Tanya and Dave clocked up? Today's abysmal.

:25:27.:25:31.

2186. That is dismal. 2186. That is dismal.

:25:32.:25:43.

3275 steps. I didn't like the 2000 steps.

:25:44.:25:48.

Especially if you're supposed to 10,000 a day, I'm way behind.

:25:49.:25:59.

one of us making the effort with one of us making the effort with

:26:00.:26:04.

more active day to day life, and losing our terrible habit of sitting

:26:05.:26:08.

for long periods of time. Obviously, if you've a heart condition or other

:26:09.:26:12.

underlying health conditions and check with your doctor first before

:26:13.:26:14.

stepping up the pace. I suppose stepping up the pace. I suppose

:26:15.:26:19.

you've got lots of things wrong with you, but if you can do 100 steps

:26:20.:26:23.

more to start wrong with you, start with that. You'll feel better and

:26:24.:26:30.

reduce your risk of disease, disability and dementia. That's the

:26:31.:26:34.

bottom line. When we first met Tanya and Dave at

:26:35.:26:38.

the call centre, they were doing just 3000 or so steps a day. How are

:26:39.:26:44.

they doing now? It's been two weeks since the challenge. My best score

:26:45.:26:48.

is just over 6000 but through the day. I have to go by what my

:26:49.:26:52.

daughter once, because I've got no one else there helping me as a

:26:53.:26:58.

single dad. It can be difficult, but it's good fun as well.

:26:59.:27:02.

I've opted mainly at the weekends. Not while I'm working because of

:27:03.:27:06.

having to sit down and answer the telephone. -- I have upped it. The

:27:07.:27:11.

last few days have been in the seven thousands. I would like to be in the

:27:12.:27:16.

10,000, but I will get there slowly. Here is the bottom line - no matter

:27:17.:27:20.

your age, no matter what long-term condition or disease you've got,

:27:21.:27:25.

walking more is the single best thing that you can do. And talking

:27:26.:27:31.

of bottom lines, Tanya and Dave, and little Edie, are at the foot of

:27:32.:27:37.

of Winchester, contemplating whether of Winchester, contemplating whether

:27:38.:27:39.

to take their step count to new heights. I could give some of it a

:27:40.:27:48.

go, yeah. Coming down will be easy! Go through the gate first. This is a

:27:49.:27:55.

steep bit. Oh, I'll wait here. Tanya gets most of the way and vows

:27:56.:28:00.

to return to Congress Saint Catherine's another day. But Dave's

:28:01.:28:08.

pushing on. -- return to conquer Saint Catherine's.

:28:09.:28:13.

top! Yay! I could quite happily top! Yay! I could quite happily

:28:14.:28:22.

liver pate, e.g.. Couldn't you? -- I could quite happily live up here.

:28:23.:28:27.

Well done, Dave and Tanya. Good effort. That's it for now. Don't

:28:28.:28:31.

forget the e-mail. I'd better get walking, see you.

:28:32.:28:39.

Next week... They just moved out onto the right,

:28:40.:28:44.

and she's almost overcompensating. The junior doctors at risk driving

:28:45.:28:47.

home after their night shifts. She getting quite bad now. That's

:28:48.:28:52.

terrifying. That's really, really scary.

:28:53.:29:06.
