0:01:11 > 0:01:14- You're late, Kim.- I'm sorry, I couldn't find the ward. NURSE SIGHS
0:01:14 > 0:01:17Did you not get the briefing about following the yellow line?
0:01:17 > 0:01:21I did think about that, but then I thought it might just be a patient that had pissed themselves.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Can you get your coat off and come and give us a hand?
0:01:23 > 0:01:25OK.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29I don't know. It's a very fancy bed, isn't it?
0:01:29 > 0:01:32Well, let's just have a crack, shall we? It can't be that difficult.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34Well, I haven't been to a training session, Kim, so...
0:01:34 > 0:01:36All right, I'm quite good on the DS.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Can we just move it up?
0:01:38 > 0:01:41That's it, that's good. That's excellent.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Yeah, Kim, can you just make sure it doesn't... She doesn't...
0:01:44 > 0:01:46Kim! Kim! Please stop, stop, stop! Stop that now.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48Can you not get it back down?
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Yeah. No, Kim, you're going to squash her now.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52- Well...- Kim! Kim! Her knees are...
0:01:52 > 0:01:55Can you not just make the whole thing come down flat now?
0:01:55 > 0:01:57That's better. Now you've got to hold her, though.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59Make sure she's not going to topple. Kim!
0:01:59 > 0:02:02- I can't, I'm pressing the button, aren't I?- Move it more towards me.
0:02:02 > 0:02:07Ah, that's perfect. OK, if I hold her, can you...
0:02:07 > 0:02:09- Oh, no.- No, stop. Stop, stop, stop! - Oh, bloody hell!
0:02:09 > 0:02:11- Stop.- Have you got her? - That's too much.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14- Yeah, I mean I'm holding her. - Can I go for my break now?
0:02:14 > 0:02:16THEY LAUGH
0:02:16 > 0:02:19- That's it. Now I think we should just...- Leave her there.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Leave her there, but press the emergency
0:02:21 > 0:02:23so we can get it right back down to the normal height.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26There's a...there's a red handle. Shall we give that a go?
0:02:26 > 0:02:31- Yeah, give that a go. - Ooh.- Ooh, that's it, perfect.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34See, that's what you need, a handle, not some button.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37But do her pulse oximeter and reset the bed.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39But the thing is, like, right, it's not responding now.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43I think what's happened, Kim, is you've given it so many mixed messages...
0:02:43 > 0:02:46How can I give a machine mixed messages?
0:02:47 > 0:02:49- WATER POURS - Will you drink a bit for me now?
0:02:49 > 0:02:52(All right.)
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Yeah, let me put it here.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Yeah.
0:03:01 > 0:03:05- SHE SIGHS - I think that is Sister's office, you know.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07You wouldn't build a ward without a Sister's office, would you?
0:03:07 > 0:03:10- But perhaps it's a linen cupboard. - Mm.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Oh, Kim. You can't take your break this morning
0:03:16 > 0:03:18cos I've booked in my health MOT for 11.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20Aiden is a bit worried about my heart
0:03:20 > 0:03:23and, well, he likes me cuddly for sex, obviously, but...
0:03:23 > 0:03:25Please.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28..it just...you know, I'm trying to be a responsible human being.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31Actually, if I miss my break, then can I go ten minutes early?
0:03:31 > 0:03:33It's Darren's birthday.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35I'll think about it, all right?
0:03:35 > 0:03:37What time are you booked in, anyway, for yours?
0:03:37 > 0:03:40Oh, I'm not going to bother. I know exactly what he's going to say.

0:04:00 > 0:04:02SHE SIGHS
0:04:08 > 0:04:13Gents, morning. Sorry, I had to navigate my way around the M25.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16I had a mini-break to celebrate my decree nisi. Ha-ha.
0:04:16 > 0:04:20- Den, can I just pop these in your office? Just a few...- Oh, sorry, I don't have an office yet.
0:04:20 > 0:04:24- Oh, snap. There do seem to be some teething problems with this merger, don't there?- Yeah.
0:04:24 > 0:04:28- can I pop them behind your desk for now, then? - Er...well...- Er...no, no, sorry.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31My other pair of shoes and my sandwiches are already...
0:04:31 > 0:04:33- Two pairs of shoes? Gosh.- Yeah... - Hardly Imelda Marcos, is it?
0:04:33 > 0:04:36There we go, there's plenty of room under there. I'll just pop them under here.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39Could you leave them in your car, please, Dr Moore? Would that...?
0:04:39 > 0:04:42No, no, no, no. You should never leave things in an unattended car.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Rule number four.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48There we go. Look, that's plenty of space. That won't get in your way. All right?
0:04:48 > 0:04:51- It does take up quite a lot of room. - They can flatten, can't they?
0:04:51 > 0:04:53I mean that's actually a 600-thread Egyptian cotton
0:04:53 > 0:04:56which, er...a bit of a bargain there, gents, at the outlet village.
0:04:56 > 0:05:01I mean, I couldn't get the whole set. Um...I had to make do with percale pillowcases,
0:05:01 > 0:05:04but I think that's not really going to show in the guest bedrooms.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07Yes, Philip always had to have, er... poly-mix cos of the psoriasis.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10But there we go, that's all... Josh, can I have a very quick word?
0:05:12 > 0:05:14Can't we just set fire to them?
0:05:14 > 0:05:17Josh, I know that your parents are very disappointed that you're
0:05:17 > 0:05:20into retakes, and goodness knows, yes, it's been a...a disappointment,
0:05:20 > 0:05:25but looking forward, on the bright side, I do have some exciting news.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29I have a new research programme which I'm going to need a helpmeet on.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31I've had a phone call from Professor Portnoy-Noor,
0:05:31 > 0:05:34who tells me that we're absolutely ticking the right box,
0:05:34 > 0:05:36that the green light is... is almost imminent.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40What I'm going to do is bring the genito-urinary team
0:05:40 > 0:05:44bang up against the bowel boys. It's going to be pretty radical stuff,
0:05:44 > 0:05:47and you're going to be one of the first to get in there, so think on.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Er...right, gents, do you want to come over?
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Oh, incidentally, gents, if you do head over Woodstock way,
0:05:52 > 0:05:57do divert to the Blenheim Palace tapestries - they are absolutely magical.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00Jolly good. Try and keep up, please. Do try and look a little...
0:06:00 > 0:06:02- Oh, Den, you've dropped your... - Mouse.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04Mouse is on the floor. Eek.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07- Where are we going this morning? - We're going to Mrs Ben-Abdullah.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09- Hello there, Mrs Ben. - Mrs Ben-Abdullah.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11- That's right. How are you?- Hello.
0:06:11 > 0:06:15- Hello.- Are you feeling much better? She's much better.- Much better?
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Responded very well to the co-amoxiclav, haven't you?
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Terrific. You were supposed to discharge her on Friday.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22- It's just you weren't here, so... - Right.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25- Can we get the obs up, Sister? - Yes, OK.- Thank you.
0:06:26 > 0:06:27Not quite yet.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30- Does anybody know how to work these things? Do you know? - Yes, I do.- Oh, you do?
0:06:30 > 0:06:33- You've had training, have you?- Yeah. Just a bit stuck at the moment.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36- Is that you or is that the machine? - I don't think it's me...
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Den, do you want to switch with this gentleman?
0:06:38 > 0:06:41Yes. Sorry. Hansley, would you mind just doing bed two first?
0:06:41 > 0:06:42- I have a timetable. - I know, but don't worry,
0:06:42 > 0:06:44I can have a word with your superior nurse.
0:06:44 > 0:06:49Somebody listen to her chest. Come on, somebody volunteer. You're not going to bite, are you?
0:06:49 > 0:06:51No, she's not going to, she's promised. Can I have a volunteer?
0:06:51 > 0:06:53Good, yes. Josh, you weren't quick enough.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56Come around. Jolly good, have a little listen to the chest.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58- Have we got the obs up yet, Den? - Erm...
0:06:58 > 0:07:02This is a huge step-change in the right direction, these electronic patient records.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05We are no longer bogged down by these huge paper notes,
0:07:05 > 0:07:09- as you will remember from recently, Josh. So, is that, er...working?- Well...
0:07:09 > 0:07:11Good morning! What would you like for your lunch?
0:07:11 > 0:07:13You are gluten-free, soft and halal.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Halal, please.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18Halal. So, that's, um...Thai green curry.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22That sounds delicious, doesn't it? But this lady's not going to be here for lunch today,
0:07:22 > 0:07:25because we're just sorting out her TTO, so...
0:07:25 > 0:07:29If Sister could please, er...send an e-mail to Eezi Heat Services,
0:07:29 > 0:07:33the Luton offices. And they can forward that, then, to Pondicherry for processing.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36- Yes, I've done that already. I did that on Friday.- E-E-Z-I.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38- Co.uk or .com? - Yeah, can we get this blood...
0:07:38 > 0:07:41Er...can we sort this out later? Thank you so much.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43- And what is the problem here?- Erm...
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Is that coming out? Can you give it a quick wipe, maybe?
0:07:46 > 0:07:50- I think actually...- Hello?- ..it might be quicker if I get the... - Can we get a cloth?- ..paper records.
0:07:50 > 0:07:54- We need to...can you... - No, sorry, sorry. They're not allowed to clean those machines.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56Oh, for goodness' sake! Do I have to do everything?
0:07:56 > 0:07:57Sorry, just borrowing your...
0:07:57 > 0:08:00Sorry, Dr Moore. Sorry, you aren't allowed to actually...
0:08:00 > 0:08:03- Yes, no, I'm doing it. - Yeah, but you can't put water on it. - MACHINE FIZZES
0:08:04 > 0:08:07Erm...that'll probably dry off. Will it? I would imagine.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10I dropped my mobile once down the toilet, and that was fine.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13Right. Gents. Er...where to next, Sister?
0:08:15 > 0:08:18- Hi.- Hi, Kim. Welcome to St Jude's.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21- It's lovely to see you again. - Thank you. Hello. Hello, matrons.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23- No, it...it's mister. - Hello, mister.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27Mr Loftus is undertaking a private consultative contract for the Trust.
0:08:27 > 0:08:31He's carrying out a skills mix review in a number of wards, including K2.
0:08:31 > 0:08:36- You won't even know I'm here. - And would either of you like a cake? Mr Loftus?
0:08:36 > 0:08:38It's all in a good cause. Cultural diversity.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41- Go on. The yellow one matches your tie.- Um...
0:08:41 > 0:08:44Do you mind if I don't? This is Armani.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46- Oh, hi, Damaris. Hils.- Hi!
0:08:46 > 0:08:50- Hi, hi.- Wow. Hi.- Um...
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Um...could you get Mr Loftus a chair, please, Sister?
0:08:53 > 0:08:56- Kim, could you get Mr Loftus a chair, please? - No, no need whatsoever.
0:08:56 > 0:09:01I'm...I'm just here to observe. I'll just, um...blend into the wallpaper.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04You're just standing there watching us, then?
0:09:04 > 0:09:07Yeah, I hope you're not going to watch my bottom!
0:09:07 > 0:09:10Er...cultural diversity cupcake, Den?
0:09:11 > 0:09:14Oh, that. Oh, they're... Oh, they're so pretty.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17It's just a little welcome to the hospital for the two of you.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20I love cultural diversity. Yeah, I've been out with loads of black guys, you know.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23- It was always brilliant. - HILARY CLEARS THROAT
0:09:23 > 0:09:25- Erm...I'm just going to set up my iPad.- Right.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28- Do you mind if I have the pink one? - I'll see you later. Enjoy the cakes.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30- Oh, thank you so much.- It's OK.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32- Den.- Mm.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34He is looking at your bum, you know.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Don't worry about it, Kim, honestly.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38He's gay. I'm married.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00Want one?
0:10:02 > 0:10:03- Sorry.- Hi.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06Den, could I have a word with you in private, please?
0:10:06 > 0:10:07- Yes. Absolutely. - Is that all right?
0:10:07 > 0:10:09- Yes, um...- Jolly good.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13..just wondered if anybody else fancied the yellow cake?
0:10:13 > 0:10:16- You don't want it, do you, Kim? - Er...no, thank you.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Do you want to come into my temporary office?
0:10:18 > 0:10:21Yes, absolutely. You're in here, are you?
0:10:21 > 0:10:23- Yes. Do take a seat.- Gosh.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25No, I'm fine, thank you.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28I just need to get your buy-in, Den, for my research,
0:10:28 > 0:10:32er...which is colonisation of conventional gut bacteria in the amenorrheic woman
0:10:32 > 0:10:36and its effect on mucosa in the atrophic vagina and urethra.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38- So, what I...- That's, erm...what in layman...
0:10:38 > 0:10:40Well, put in layperson's terms, I suppose,
0:10:40 > 0:10:43well, you're probably already aware yourself, aren't you,
0:10:43 > 0:10:45of certain changes in the undercarriage area, and the...
0:10:45 > 0:10:47- Sorry, where is this headed? - Not to worry.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50- Er...very much in post-65 vulvas... - OK.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53...which, you know, obviously, you've a way to go,
0:10:53 > 0:10:55but specifically what we're going to be looking for,
0:10:55 > 0:10:59and this is where you're going to come in, um...is polarisation of the vaginal area,
0:10:59 > 0:11:02- thinning of tissue... - Sounds fascinating, absolutely.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04It's just that, it's not that I don't want to get involved,
0:11:04 > 0:11:07it's just that you're going to have to take it up with my successor.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11- Have...have you been... - No, no, no, no.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14- No? Gosh.- Aiden and I, we... Well, we're moving.
0:11:14 > 0:11:18- Where...where are you going? - Leicester.- Oh, dear.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21- What's he up to?- He's starting a business with his brother. - Mm. Mm.- Car valeting.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Oh, right. And you're going to be helping with the scrubbing, are you?
0:11:24 > 0:11:26No, no, no. He doesn't want me to work any more so...
0:11:26 > 0:11:29Are you sure you want to give up your independence, Den?
0:11:29 > 0:11:30- Certain, yeah. - Oh, well, that's a shame.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33You'd have enjoyed getting your teeth into my vaginal atrophy.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Possibly, yes.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37Oh, whilst we're here, Den,
0:11:37 > 0:11:40could you check how many times Mrs Ben-Abdullah is doing a wee?
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Because that's going to affect her discharge.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45- Yes.- All right, thank you.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47DOOR BUZZES
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Oh, hello again, Mrs Dethick.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54- Hello there. I'm not well.- No?
0:11:54 > 0:11:57- Not too good? - No, no, not good at all.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00- Come on, then. Shall we put you into bed?- OK.- Are you all right, Donald?
0:12:00 > 0:12:02Yeah, I'm all right.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07THEY SNORE
0:12:16 > 0:12:17Mm.
0:12:21 > 0:12:22Mm.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25Mm. Did you get any pillowcases, Kim?
0:12:25 > 0:12:27No, Annapurna said they're a bit low, too,
0:12:27 > 0:12:30but they'd talk to Fuji later and maybe get some.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34- Hello, has Mrs Dethick arrived yet? - She has, yes.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38- Not that she's really ill So it doesn't make much...- Sorry? Sorry?
0:12:38 > 0:12:41Um...yeah, I was just, er... She's not actually that ill, so...
0:12:41 > 0:12:45- Oh. Have you already examined her, Dr Dukes?- No.
0:12:45 > 0:12:49No. Right, well, we'll...we'll see, then, shall we? Have her notes come up yet?
0:12:49 > 0:12:51I've got the older ones, some of the paper ones,
0:12:51 > 0:12:54because the EPR's gone down now and we're waiting for Maintenance.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57There's no blame intended there, accidents happen, of course, so...
0:12:57 > 0:13:00- Have you had your health check, James?- Er...no. 11.30.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03Yes, Dr Kersley's told me that I've got rather low cholesterol.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06I can even indulge in a little bit more butter. Ha-ha!
0:13:06 > 0:13:08Though he probably won't say that to you, will he, James?
0:13:08 > 0:13:12Er...it's genetics often, isn't it? But, no...
0:13:12 > 0:13:14- Does he do bloods? - Yes, bloods, swabs.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16- Urine, the lot. He's pretty thorough.- Brilliant.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18- Oh, brilliant, brilliant, brilliant.- Mm, mm.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22- Hello, Mrs Dethick.- Hello.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26You remember Dr Moore. I'm sure you'll remember Mrs Dethick, won't you?
0:13:26 > 0:13:29- Yes, hello again.- Hello.- Hello. - Yes, she was in in March.
0:13:29 > 0:13:33Um...for biliary colic, and she had some tests, June, abdo X-rays.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36- Yeah, that was severe constipation. - Mm-hm, mm-hm.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39- September, you had intravenous urethrogram for renal colic and stones?- Yeah.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42- Mm.- All those test results were negative.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44And now you've spotted blood in your faeces?
0:13:44 > 0:13:45I saw a poster in the chemist.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48Yes, I think sometimes those can be a bit alarming, can't they, yes?
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Sometimes a bit of autosuggestion...
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Yes, so...so that must have caused you some alarm?
0:13:53 > 0:13:57- Yes, and I haven't been feeling very well in myself.- No. I think we'll run a few routine tests.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59You know, rule out anything sinister. All right?
0:13:59 > 0:14:01So, Josh, do you want to, um...organise using this group
0:14:01 > 0:14:04and, say, top and tail, colonoscopy, please, as well.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07And bloods, check the haematinics. Thank you.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10- And will I have to have an MRI scan? - Not necessarily, no.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13Because the thing is I... I get claustrophobic.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15- She's already had a CAT scan. - And was that clear?
0:14:15 > 0:14:19- Yes.- Well, these things can change, and sometimes pretty quickly, unfortunately.
0:14:19 > 0:14:24(The last time she was in, it was just constipation.
0:14:24 > 0:14:25(There was nothing more serious.)
0:14:25 > 0:14:28Yes, that may well be the case, Den, but we don't want to rule out
0:14:28 > 0:14:30metastasisation of the liver and pancreas
0:14:30 > 0:14:32and possibly even, you know, ovarian cancer so...
0:14:32 > 0:14:35Oh, actually, Josh, could you pop down
0:14:35 > 0:14:37a CA-125 tumour marker on that list for me, please?
0:14:37 > 0:14:41- And how's your appetite? - It's very poor.- Is it?
0:14:41 > 0:14:43Yes, well, she did manage the cupcakes so...
0:14:43 > 0:14:46- Yes, but I didn't have any breakfast.- Mm.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48We'll run the routine tests, and, just to be on the safe side,
0:14:48 > 0:14:51ask the oncology team to pop down and have a little look,
0:14:51 > 0:14:54just to get the differential diagnoses, all right?
0:14:54 > 0:14:57In the meantime, could you organise, er...20 milligrams of Buscopan
0:14:57 > 0:15:00and some paracetamol, all right?
0:15:00 > 0:15:01Um...thank you.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04You just have a quick relax there, Mrs Dethick, yes?
0:15:07 > 0:15:09That woman is completely wasting our time.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12There's people in here who are actually ill, people like Enid here.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15- All right, Enid?- I didn't get much sleep last night.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17- No.- It was so hot.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Den, look, that's the last of the sheets, all right?
0:15:19 > 0:15:21- Can I put a duvet cover on her?- Yeah.
0:15:21 > 0:15:22Just use your discretion, Kim.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25I mean, does it actually need changing?
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Well, it did, yeah.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33Ah, er...Josh, can I firm you up later?
0:15:33 > 0:15:36Er...look, I know in your continent, er...
0:15:36 > 0:15:39I...I just think that vulvas could be a very exciting area
0:15:39 > 0:15:42for you to get into as, er... your specialism, you know,
0:15:42 > 0:15:45given some of the more, er...barbaric,
0:15:45 > 0:15:47for want of a better expression, practices...
0:15:47 > 0:15:50I mean, although, obviously, who are we in the West to...
0:15:50 > 0:15:52to judge these things? Um...but I...
0:15:52 > 0:15:56I really feel, Josh, if you come on board with my vag-at, you know,
0:15:56 > 0:15:59by the time you do get back to your part of the world,
0:15:59 > 0:16:01you will know the intricacies of female genitalia
0:16:01 > 0:16:03like the back of your hand.
0:16:03 > 0:16:04So, you know, think on.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07Ah, sorry, I didn't realise you were here, Mr Loftus.
0:16:07 > 0:16:11Er...this is highly confidential, pioneering clinical research, so...
0:16:11 > 0:16:15You...you're not here anyway, are you?
0:16:15 > 0:16:16Right. OK.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18Er...yes, thank you.
0:16:21 > 0:16:22Sorry, Mrs Ben-Abdullah.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25You're still waiting for your GP letter, aren't you?
0:16:25 > 0:16:28- That's right. - Did you order some lunch?
0:16:28 > 0:16:30I'm...I'm not sure.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32- I'll make you some toast. - Sorry, Kim, that took ages.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34It was fantastic, absolutely amazing.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37I'm going to get all the test results today.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Do you want any help with the red trays?
0:16:39 > 0:16:43Please. I've done Ms Burgess. You want to do Enid?
0:16:43 > 0:16:44Yeah, sure.
0:16:44 > 0:16:48Portobello and chestnut mushroom pappardelle?
0:16:48 > 0:16:50That's... They don't want that.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52They want mince and potatoes. It's so stupid.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56Hey, Mrs Dethick. Can I tempt you with that?
0:16:56 > 0:16:58I don't think so, dear.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02I heard the doctor say something about cancer.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05Look, do you think that would be right with my symptoms?
0:17:05 > 0:17:07I don't want to be a nuisance.
0:17:07 > 0:17:08No, listen, don't worry about it.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11I mean, obviously they've got to rule out the worst.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13- Yeah.- I'm sure it'll be fine.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16- You think that's what it is? - Absolutely.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Well, I hope you're right.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21Sorry, Kim, sorry. Just have a quick word.
0:17:21 > 0:17:25(Try not to over-reassure the patients, because it's not good practice.)
0:17:25 > 0:17:26(Just give them the facts, OK?)
0:17:26 > 0:17:29(Yeah, but you said yourself there was nothing wrong with her.)
0:17:29 > 0:17:31(There is nothing wrong with her,)
0:17:31 > 0:17:33(but we can't be the ones to tell her that.)
0:17:33 > 0:17:34Oh.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38VEHICLES PASSING
0:17:48 > 0:17:50PHONE RINGS
0:17:51 > 0:17:55Hi, Jason. No, we have got tomato sauce.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58It's in the fridge. No, it's for Darren's birthday cake.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01Well, look again!
0:18:01 > 0:18:04All right, well, we must have run out. I'll get some on the way home.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06PHONE BEEPS
0:18:13 > 0:18:15- I like a treacle pudding. Do you? - Yes, I do.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17That's it, good girl.
0:18:17 > 0:18:20- Lovely. - Hi, Den. You having lunch?
0:18:20 > 0:18:23- No, this is Enid's lunch here. - No, I mean later.
0:18:23 > 0:18:24Yeah, yeah.
0:18:24 > 0:18:28I thought perhaps we could find a quiet corner in Chatters.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32I don't...I don't think it's a good idea, Hilary.
0:18:32 > 0:18:33I have renewed my vows now.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36- I didn't know that.- Mm.
0:18:36 > 0:18:37Yeah.
0:18:37 > 0:18:42Well, if I could just have a moment with you, would that be all right?
0:18:42 > 0:18:44It's quite important.
0:18:44 > 0:18:45If...if possible.
0:18:47 > 0:18:48Please?
0:18:49 > 0:18:53Enid, can you...do you want to help yourself to that?
0:18:53 > 0:18:55Yeah? All right, then.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58- Let's go to my office. - OK. Thank you, madam.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Erm...do you want to take a seat?
0:19:06 > 0:19:08OK.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13Now, what can I do for you?
0:19:14 > 0:19:16RESPIRATOR WHEEZING
0:19:16 > 0:19:17(You sure she can't hear?)
0:19:17 > 0:19:19No, no, she's stage 13.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Unlucky for some. That's what they say, isn't it?
0:19:21 > 0:19:24Well, not for me, though, cos I can use this room as an office.
0:19:24 > 0:19:25Oh, right.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29Erm...listen, what I've come here for is to tell you
0:19:29 > 0:19:32I'm going to have one of those health checks this afternoon.
0:19:32 > 0:19:36Right. You're not allowed one, are you, cos you're not NHS any more?
0:19:36 > 0:19:38- Cos you're an accountant or... - No, no, I'm not an accountant.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40I'm a business consultant.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42- Right.- And I'm paying in for it myself, anyway.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45- Really?- Yeah, well, it's tax deductible, so...
0:19:45 > 0:19:47- How much is it?- Well, I don't really want to go into that.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50- Look, listen... - I just...I'm only asking cos...
0:19:50 > 0:19:53Just listen to me. I've got something very important to say.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57While I'm there, I'm going to have an HIV test...
0:19:57 > 0:19:58Right.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00..and I think you should too.
0:20:02 > 0:20:03Right, thank you.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05That was it, really, just...
0:20:05 > 0:20:06- Thanks.- Thank you.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Hiya, Kim. Hi, Den.
0:20:42 > 0:20:43- Hi, Damaris. Hi.- Yeah.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45I just wanted to make sure you've got
0:20:45 > 0:20:47an appropriate allocation of linen.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49Actually, Popocatepetl have been on the rob and...
0:20:49 > 0:20:51Yeah, we are a bit short.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Yeah, we could do with a few more sheets.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55I can task someone
0:20:55 > 0:20:57- to sort that out for you, no problem.- Brilliant, fantastic.
0:20:57 > 0:21:01- Would you like one of your cakes? - Erm...oh, no, thanks, Den.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05You sure? I mean there's a black one, er...brown one left here if...
0:21:05 > 0:21:07I mean, they were all nice, all the different colours,
0:21:07 > 0:21:09but the brown one was... was particularly nice.
0:21:09 > 0:21:13No, no, thanks, Den. Right, do you need anything else or...
0:21:14 > 0:21:16- Great. Well, see you later. - See you later.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18- Thank you.- Bye. Bye, Den. - Thanks so much, Damaris.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20- Thanks, Kim.- Bye.
0:21:20 > 0:21:21Bye.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Why is she so bloody nice?
0:21:23 > 0:21:26Well, she only graduated a minute ago
0:21:26 > 0:21:28and already she's two grades above me.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31And above me, Kim. Well, that's what a degree does for you.
0:21:31 > 0:21:34Den, can I borrow you for a moment?
0:21:34 > 0:21:36Um...Mrs Dethick is showing signs of anxiety.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38- Well, I did mention that she might...- Thank you.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41Sue, thank you so much for popping by.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43- Any major concerns at this stage? - No, not really.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45All right, Sue, I'll see you later.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Den, can I just borrow your office for a moment?
0:21:47 > 0:21:49- Erm...- Thank you.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53Ah, Mr Loftus. I'm just, er...
0:21:53 > 0:21:56borrowing Sister Flixter's desk for a moment.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59Don't worry about me cos I... I'm not here.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01Righto.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09- Been busy?- Just observing.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Yes, I'm sure you are.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Are the nursing staff aware that this skills mix review of yours
0:22:14 > 0:22:17will involve identifying surplus fat?
0:22:17 > 0:22:21I mean, isn't your job to cut these care systems down to the bare bone?
0:22:21 > 0:22:24We, um...we may be looking at some streamlining.
0:22:24 > 0:22:25Hm.
0:22:27 > 0:22:3014, 15. Clean sluice.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43So, er...did you manage a holiday this year, then, Mrs Dethick?
0:22:43 > 0:22:46Well, I didn't think I was going to be able to,
0:22:46 > 0:22:48but actually I did manage a week in Albufeira.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51- Oh, nice.- Mm.- Yeah, it is rather nice there, isn't it?
0:22:51 > 0:22:55Hello, Mrs Dethick. Just going to take some blood from you.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58- Oh. Yes.- Very good.- That's all right, nothing to worry about.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00Just relax for me, just relax.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03I...I don't think... I'm not really very well.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05No, you're not. You're getting too worked up.
0:23:05 > 0:23:09Now, just long, deep breaths, OK? It's all right. Nothing to worry about.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11- I'm beginning to feel quite dizzy! - GASPING
0:23:11 > 0:23:14Well done, well done. Nice and slow.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16- Get me an ECG machine, please. - All right, long deep breaths.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Ah, James. Sue was just suggesting
0:23:18 > 0:23:21we take Mrs Dethick down for a high colonoscopy.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24- She's having a panic attack. - Ah, James, two milligrams diazepam.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27Yep. OK. Well done, well done.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30She...she needs a psychological assessment from Denby Park.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32No, we have a lot of things to rule out before we leap
0:23:32 > 0:23:33to that conclusion, Nurse.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37Could you call a porter when she's a bit calmer? Thank you.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39MRS DETHICK WHEEZES
0:23:50 > 0:23:52Oh, yeah, hi. Um...can you tell me
0:23:52 > 0:23:55who the duty psychiatrist is, please?
0:23:55 > 0:23:59I'm calling from ward K2 at St Jude's. We need an assessment.
0:23:59 > 0:24:00Erm...Kim Wilde.
0:24:01 > 0:24:02Thanks.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07- Is that coffee? - Yes, it's coffee, yeah.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10Yeah, and, um... well, might as well take three.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13- Er...four? - Do you want four?
0:24:13 > 0:24:15- Yeah. Oh, sorry, excuse me. - PHONE RINGS
0:24:15 > 0:24:17- Hang on a sec.- Yes.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19Hello?
0:24:20 > 0:24:21Yes, it is, yeah.
0:24:21 > 0:24:2427th of the 10th, 1967.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Oh, that's great. Thank...thank you.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29Yeah, and what... what about the blood sugar?
0:24:29 > 0:24:325.2? That's fantastic.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34Yeah.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46PHONE RINGS
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Hello, K2.
0:24:51 > 0:24:53Oh, I was hoping you might be Estates.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55We've got a broken bed and a locked door.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58No, I haven't seen Sister for ages.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Yeah, all right, I'll tell her. Cheers. Bye. Bye.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03Can you tell Den I'll give her a ring?
0:25:08 > 0:25:11Did you call Nigel Hoskins about Mrs Dethick?
0:25:11 > 0:25:13He tells me you've diagnosed her as hypochondriacal.
0:25:13 > 0:25:17- Yeah.- Right. Well, thank you for your honesty, at least.
0:25:17 > 0:25:18I would ask you in future, Nurse,
0:25:18 > 0:25:20not to meddle in other people's business.
0:25:20 > 0:25:24You have caused me great embarrassment with Dr Hoskins.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29SHE SIGHS
0:25:43 > 0:25:46Have you got any sheets? We're really short next door.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48- No, I don't think we have.- Oh.
0:25:48 > 0:25:49Oh. No, hang on a minute.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55- Um...look, these should keep you going.- Oh.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58- Great, thanks.- All right? See you later. Ta-ra.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01Yes, so, there's no blood in your faeces, and you're not anaemic,
0:26:01 > 0:26:03so we'll be able to discharge you tomorrow.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06- Oh, thank goodness. - Yes, oncology are fairly happy,
0:26:06 > 0:26:08although they would like us to go ahead with that colonoscopy,
0:26:08 > 0:26:11so you'll receive an appointment through the post, OK?
0:26:11 > 0:26:15Why? Do you think there might... might be something else?
0:26:15 > 0:26:18Well, old age doesn't come alone, I'm afraid, Mrs Dethick.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20- Oh.- All right? Jolly good.
0:26:27 > 0:26:28Oh, Den.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31Sorry. Um...is it all right? I...I need to go in a minute.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34Yeah. Whatever. Yeah, fine.
0:26:34 > 0:26:38I'll tell you what, though, thanks for making me go to my health check.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40I don't know quite how it happened,
