:00:13. > :00:15.who thinks a night of passion might mean
:00:16. > :00:22.You've got a bit of discharge. It was quite offensive in odour
:00:23. > :00:28.This series goes behind the doors of two clinics ..
:00:29. > :00:36.We're a bit mental but we're not judgmental!
:00:37. > :00:41.Leeds, with its huge student population...
:00:42. > :00:46.It's pretty much all unprotected sex.
:00:47. > :00:51.Why are we not looking after little Olly?
:00:52. > :00:55...and Exeter, in the heart of the Devon countryside.
:00:56. > :00:57.This is Exeter! Everyone sleeps with everyone!

:01:06. > :01:07.We help bring patients to get checked out...
:01:08. > :01:11.I've trusted people that I shouldn't have. Oh, my God!
:01:12. > :01:14.I'm hoping and praying that I haven't got anything.
:01:15. > :01:20.12 months? 20 partners? That's well shocked me!
:01:21. > :01:25.Your results from your recent visit are...
:01:26. > :01:34.Why would you need to carry on coming and taking the tests
:01:35. > :01:36.if you're not sleeping with anyone but me?
:01:37. > :01:48.This week, in Exeter, Scott's drunken exploits
:01:49. > :01:54.Having something that can kill me slowly, in time,
:01:55. > :01:59.I think that would be the worst thing.
:02:00. > :02:01.While in Leeds, Chloe has been experiencing
:02:02. > :02:06.Is the breaking of the condom a regular thing?
:02:07. > :02:13.He's absolutely massive and it doesn't seem to want to stay on
:02:14. > :02:18.Do you always make sure you use condoms?
:02:19. > :02:20.Yeah. They just don't make them big enough for me.
:02:21. > :02:44.OK. You take care and I'll see you tomorrow.
:02:45. > :02:50.daily deliveries brighten everyone's day.
:02:51. > :03:03.I had a green one. I don't know where it's gone.
:03:04. > :03:10.That's not very nice! I said that to you when you came in with it
:03:11. > :03:12.and you said they said that this morning. Yeah.
:03:13. > :03:22.Hello, sir. How can I help? Waiting room one on your left.
:03:23. > :03:48.the pair have come to the clinic to see if they've picked up
:03:49. > :03:52.My thoughts going in is I'm clean as a whistle.
:03:53. > :03:56.You don't know. I DO know! You don't know. I DO know!
:03:57. > :04:02.After the weekend, I don't know but I'm fairly adamant I'm OK!
:04:03. > :04:10.I'm Luke. I'm one of the nurses How are you doing? All good.
:04:11. > :04:12.You've been to us before. I have. A couple of times.
:04:13. > :04:15.Any discharge coming out of the penis?
:04:16. > :04:18.Pain in the testicles? Pain when you go for a wee?
:04:19. > :04:21.Anything like that? No. I haven't had any of that.
:04:22. > :04:24.Apart from blue balls on Friday night. Blue balls?
:04:25. > :04:27.You might have to explain that one to me.
:04:28. > :04:30.Just when you don't finish, you can't finish
:04:31. > :04:35.Have you come at this point already? No, I haven't.
:04:36. > :04:40.It's your body's way of saying "Let me out."
:04:41. > :04:42.And you're still erect at this point?
:04:43. > :04:48.When did you last have any sexual contact, then?
:04:49. > :04:54.It was a one-off. I met her at a festival.
:04:55. > :04:57.Did you use condoms? We did but they broke.
:04:58. > :05:00.Before that, when did you last have sexual contact
:05:01. > :05:03.with somebody different? About three weeks before. Any condoms? No.
:05:04. > :05:06.Sexual contact with someone other than her? A week before.
:05:07. > :05:11.Did they break or were they all right? They were fine
:05:12. > :05:16.I don't even know her name, to be honest.
:05:17. > :05:19.Generally, what is your condom use like?
:05:20. > :05:22.I'm improving. If it's asked for, I'll put one on.
:05:23. > :05:24.It's an improvement, as far as I'm concerned.
:05:25. > :05:26.Was it not at all? It was not at all before.
:05:27. > :05:31.When you say not agree, what do you mean? When you put one on,
:05:32. > :05:33.sometimes a lot of men suffer with it.
:05:34. > :05:46.It goes down. It's like putting a plastic bag over your head.
:05:47. > :05:56.OK, so... You grab a seat out there for me.
:05:57. > :06:01.Robbie's been tested before so knows the score.
:06:02. > :06:04.But for little brother Tom, it's all new.
:06:05. > :06:07.I don't want anything put up anything.
:06:08. > :06:10.He doesn't want a cotton bud. I do. It doesn't even hurt.
:06:11. > :06:12.I didn't even know they did that until you told me about it.
:06:13. > :06:16.It doesn't even hurt. Be a man. I'm going to be a man
:06:17. > :06:19.They've taken my blood. That's me being a man. OK.
:06:20. > :06:37.Good afternoon. Exeter walk-in centre. Sorry about that,
:06:38. > :06:44.Five. That's not a problem. See you tomorrow. Bye.
:06:45. > :06:55.I need a urine sample from you for the chlamydia, gonorrhoea.
:06:56. > :06:58.Then if we can do a blood test for the HIV and syphilis.
:06:59. > :07:02.How are you with needles? I hate them with a passion.
:07:03. > :07:09.What is it about condoms you don't like?
:07:10. > :07:11.I never have one on me at the time when it's going down.
:07:12. > :07:13.I'm not willing to go out looking for one
:07:14. > :07:15.when you're getting caught up on things.
:07:16. > :07:18.It's not like I put it on and lose an erection.
:07:19. > :07:20.It's what my brother said, in the past.
:07:21. > :07:29.That's good because I can give you loads of condoms.
:07:30. > :07:33.They put a needle in me. I didn't like that much
:07:34. > :07:36.but I got some condoms so it's not all bad.
:07:37. > :07:38.Took about 30 condoms, different size ranges.
:07:39. > :07:51.The boys have to wait to find out if not wrapping up
:07:52. > :07:54.I have the means to on Facebook but I'm not still talking to them
:07:55. > :07:56.like how was it for you kind of thing.
:07:57. > :08:01.It's the same with me. If I need to contact them, I will
:08:02. > :08:04.but there's a few I wouldn't be able to contact.
:08:05. > :08:12.Short of following them on nights out
:08:13. > :08:15.it's about having that open-door policy
:08:16. > :08:18.and saying you know you should If it all fails,
:08:19. > :08:42.In Leeds, Staff Nurse Tim's day has got off
:08:43. > :08:48.We're positive for herpes so you need to be aware that
:08:49. > :09:01.What's up? It's bizarre. Herpes always seems to go down
:09:02. > :09:07.I find more guys are accepting of HIV than they are herpes. Really?
:09:08. > :09:13.Why is it that one's a big bogey for us?
:09:14. > :09:19.I wonder why social stigma has attached itself to that one
:09:20. > :09:25."Chlamydia? I can live with that. Herpes? That's the end of
:09:26. > :09:35.What's the big deal? Everyone has sex.
:09:36. > :09:37.And people's response when I'm in this job,
:09:38. > :09:39."Oh, my God, you must see some really..."
:09:40. > :09:42.And I'm like, "No. Actually, I see some normal people who've
:09:43. > :09:53."had a bit of bad luck." Could happen to anyone.
:09:54. > :09:58.I had the HPV virus on my cervix, which causes
:09:59. > :10:01.abnormal growth cells in your cervix.
:10:02. > :10:04.So, I've had a biopsy and a full removal
:10:05. > :10:15.It's like I was never really that bothered about it before
:10:16. > :10:19.and six months of torturous waiting for results has just made me
:10:20. > :10:23.the most safe person in the history of the world.
:10:24. > :10:27.But a recent condom split has brought Chloe back to the clinic.
:10:28. > :10:31.and I've had, like, a bit of spotting, like, bleeding afterwards,
:10:32. > :10:34.so I thought I'd come and get it checked out.
:10:35. > :10:45.It has been but then I wasn't sure if that was just because...
:10:46. > :10:54.the questions around your sexual life.
:10:55. > :10:57.So, when was the last time you had sex with anybody?
:10:58. > :11:03.Did he use a condom? Yes, but it broke.
:11:04. > :11:06.So, is the breaking of the condom a regular thing?
:11:07. > :11:12.He's absolutely massive and it just doesn't seem to want to stay on
:11:13. > :11:16.It's...but then I think that's also part of the pain thing as well
:11:17. > :11:20.I'm not sure if it's cos it's a bigger penis than I'm used to
:11:21. > :11:24.Guys are different sizes, that's true,
:11:25. > :11:28.but condoms are quite stretchy and some of them you can
:11:29. > :11:38.actually get for the more better equipped guys.
:11:39. > :11:42.Now, get yourself comfy. Pop your legs over.
:11:43. > :11:48.if the pain Chloe's experiencing during sex is due to an STI.
:11:49. > :11:50.I'm just going to have a look on the outside first,
:11:51. > :12:02.and then take a swap and then we'll look inside. OK? Cool.
:12:03. > :12:05.The cervix has healed very well after the treatment
:12:06. > :12:07.and there's just a bit of a discharge around it
:12:08. > :12:15.so we'll check that under the microscope and see what's going on.
:12:16. > :12:19.Do you want to pop your legs together and pop them on the chair there
:12:20. > :12:22.The neck of the womb has been operated on.
:12:23. > :12:25.It's had a small piece removed as part of the colposcopy
:12:26. > :12:30.treatment she's had, and it might be why she's seeing some bleeding
:12:31. > :12:35.On examination, I spotted a discharge that could be bacterial vaginosis,
:12:36. > :12:39.so we'll see how the results work out on that.
:12:40. > :12:44.Chloe will have to wait a week to see if history has repeated itself.
:12:45. > :12:50.so if I have got it it's just the luck of the draw.
:12:51. > :12:54.I don't want to be walking around with something that could
:12:55. > :13:08.mess up my fertility and, like, mess up my life.
:13:09. > :13:10.When temperature go up, inhibitions go down,
:13:11. > :13:12.and the number of patients coming through
:13:13. > :13:20.So, I think younger people may think they're invincible as well.
:13:21. > :13:24.Alcohol. And alcohol. Alcohol's a biggie
:13:25. > :13:26.because people don't think of the consequences
:13:27. > :13:28.if they're drinking too much. Definitely.
:13:29. > :13:31.I've agreed to do all sorts of things after
:13:32. > :13:33.a couple of glasses of wine, not sexual.
:13:34. > :13:36.Yeah, that'll be a good idea. We'll do that.
:13:37. > :13:40."What did I say I was going to do?" Yeah.
:13:41. > :13:43.After a booze-fuelled summer, 21-year-old Scott has
:13:44. > :13:48.come to the Exeter clinic for his first ever STI test.
:13:49. > :13:52.Oh, my God, I'm so nervous. You've got to help me.
:13:53. > :14:08.Leave them alone. I love the trannies.
:14:09. > :14:12.'They're worried about me on nights out, downing so much alcohol.
:14:13. > :14:17.'And even though they're crazy I go a little bit extra crazy.
:14:18. > :14:20.I'll end up in random places with no clothes on and...
:14:21. > :14:22.with people I don't know who they are.
:14:23. > :14:27.And they're just worried for what is happening to me.
:14:28. > :14:36.All right, and so when did you most recently have sex?
:14:37. > :14:44.Do you know approximately how many people you had sex with?
:14:45. > :14:55.And, with the man, can you tell me what type of sex you had?
:14:56. > :14:59.It was just oral. Was the oral sex protected?
:15:00. > :15:03.I didn't know it had to be protected, you know what I mean
:15:04. > :15:05.Quite awkward. I don't think anyone knows.
:15:06. > :15:08.No-one really protects with that. Yeah.
:15:09. > :15:13.I mean, our advice generally is that all types of sex should be protected,
:15:14. > :15:18.and the reason is that there are some infections we know can...
:15:19. > :15:24...contracted through oral sex. Gonorrhoea, syphilis. Oh, my God!
:15:25. > :15:26.Try to use condoms as much as possible.
:15:27. > :15:30.And the last time you had sex with anybody different from those people?
:15:31. > :15:33.Like, I remember going to places and probably doing it,
:15:34. > :15:36.but I don't really remember, you know what I mean?
:15:37. > :15:40.Go out every weekend and always end up... OK.
:15:41. > :15:44.So, you think you're probably having unprotected sex with strangers
:15:45. > :15:46.most weekends? I guess so, yeah.
:15:47. > :15:49.And do you remember ever having had anal sex,
:15:50. > :15:52.or woken up feeling like you might have had anal sex?
:15:53. > :15:55.I thought I would do that with someone
:15:56. > :15:58.if I actually liked them, so.. OK.
:15:59. > :16:07.Yeah, I would say quite a lot of drinks.
:16:08. > :16:10.Are you aware that your behaviour changes
:16:11. > :16:15.Yeah, I'm definitely a different person sort of thing. Yeah.
:16:16. > :16:24.about what sort of impact your alcohol use is having on..
:16:25. > :16:26.Yeah. My body. Your body. My brain.
:16:27. > :16:30.Maybe that's why I'm going so crazy cos it's affected me.
:16:31. > :16:33.And we might be able to provide some support for you.
:16:34. > :16:35.Scott's behaviour is always high risk.
:16:36. > :16:38.Most of the people that he meets in these clubs and that,
:16:39. > :16:42.and so he could have anything, really.
:16:43. > :16:44.I mean, the characters he meets some of them
:16:45. > :16:51.Sometimes he tells me he doesn't know what he does now.
:16:52. > :16:54.He says he wakes up and runs out of their house.
:16:55. > :17:02.because I always end up too drunk and stuff, and she didn't want me
:17:03. > :17:08.to do something unprotected or end up somewhere not safe.
:17:09. > :17:13.and I've had blood taken from my arm,
:17:14. > :17:17.and I've got another appointment next week to find out the results.
:17:18. > :17:19.So... Was it all right? Yeah, it was all right.
:17:20. > :17:22.What's in your bag? Oh, it's lots of condoms. Ooh!
:17:23. > :17:31.Scott will be back at the clinic in a week to find out
:17:32. > :17:40.if his drunken sexploits have given him more than just a hangover.
:17:41. > :17:48.MUSIC: "Good Girl" by Robin Thicke
:17:49. > :17:50.Across town... That's yours.
:17:51. > :17:53...brothers Robbie and Tom are catching up with their mate
:17:54. > :18:00.So, are you guys not worried at all about catching anything?
:18:01. > :18:03.It depends what it is. Chlamydia, like we said earlier, is a cold
:18:04. > :18:07.It's a cold for your penis, that s my theory on it. That's my theory
:18:08. > :18:09.Like, for guys, it's not a problem but for women it is.
:18:10. > :18:11.Yeah. Yeah. They can't have kids and stuff like that.
:18:12. > :18:23.Have you two ever shared a girl Not at the same time, no.
:18:24. > :18:25.that's what it is. Need a little bit of fresh meat
:18:26. > :18:28.You can't blame the poor girls. . A little bit of younger energy
:18:29. > :18:31.Have they ever compared you? After you've shared...
:18:32. > :18:34.We've never had feedback at the same time, but I'd win.
:18:35. > :18:38.I don't think I have. I'd win. I taught him everything he knows.
:18:39. > :18:41.Say you both came back and you both had gonorrhoea or chlamydia,
:18:42. > :18:44.would you phone up the last person you fucked? Absolutely.
:18:45. > :18:48.I would love to cos she phoned me up, telling me she was late.
:18:49. > :18:53.What would you say? Say I was on the phone to you, right now
:18:54. > :18:57.OK. Let's play this one up. Alice? You be Alice. Right, OK.
:18:58. > :19:01.You all right, Alice? Yeah, all good.
:19:02. > :19:06.I've caught something and you're the last person I've slept with
:19:07. > :19:09.so, you know, this is something I thought I should relay on to you.
:19:10. > :19:12.BUZZER LAUGHTER
:19:13. > :19:14.Bitch! She's put the phone down Well, that's the end of it.
:19:15. > :19:18.That's how you put it? That is definitely how I would put it.
:19:19. > :19:21.But with their results due soon will Tom
:19:22. > :19:35.and Robbie have to make the call for real?
:19:36. > :19:38.Um, a guy once told me that if you eat a lot of celery,
:19:39. > :19:41.that makes the cum fire a lot further.
:19:42. > :19:45.I think I know that one, actually. I do know that one.
:19:46. > :19:48.Yes, sometimes these people will stick in your mind if they had
:19:49. > :19:52.said something particularly silly, you will remember them.
:19:53. > :19:56.The next patient to make a big impression is 30-year-old Karl
:19:57. > :20:00.A recent sexual encounter has given him cause for concern.
:20:01. > :20:19.You've not actually been told by anybody or
:20:20. > :20:23.And have you ever had a sexually transmitted infection in the past?
:20:24. > :20:27.Chlamydia. Do you have any general health problems? No.
:20:28. > :20:29.I'm ex-army, so I'm fit and well. Great.
:20:30. > :20:34.Right, so we're just going to ask a few more personal questions.
:20:35. > :20:36.When did you last have any kind of sex with anybody?
:20:37. > :20:39.Would have been about six weeks ago. Six weeks.
:20:40. > :20:44.OK. And is that the person that you were talking about? Yes. OK
:20:45. > :20:47.And did you use a condom with her? Yes, I did, but it did split.
:20:48. > :20:51.OK. Before that, when did you last have sex with somebody different?
:20:52. > :20:53.That's it. I wouldn't say I'm not very sexually active
:20:54. > :20:57.but I just don't get it as regularly as I would like to. OK.
:20:58. > :21:01.Fair enough. So, because you have not got any symptoms,
:21:02. > :21:08.and gonorrhoea and do your blood test for HIV and syphilis
:21:09. > :21:10.Is that OK? Yes, that's fine. Brilliant. OK.
:21:11. > :21:13.Pop it in there and take the whole thing back to the waiting room
:21:14. > :21:17.The nurse will do your blood tests. OK? OK, then. Thank you very much.
:21:18. > :21:20.Take care and do you want some condoms? Yes, please. Brilliant
:21:21. > :21:35.We tend to hear that kind of comment quite a lot,
:21:36. > :21:37.men say they have a problem with condoms
:21:38. > :21:40.because their penis is too large. But actually,
:21:41. > :21:44.there are lots of different brands of condom, lots of different
:21:45. > :21:50.sizes of condom and it may be that they are not using lubrication.
:21:51. > :21:53.Karl? I'm Michelle. I'm one of the sisters. In here
:21:54. > :21:57.Are you quite good at coming in quite regularly? Yes.
:21:58. > :22:02.I come in between four to six months. That's brilliant
:22:03. > :22:07.In normal sexual activity. Depending on if you've been quite busy.
:22:08. > :22:13.Yeah. They just don't make them big enough.
:22:14. > :22:16.They're too tight and just not long enough.
:22:17. > :22:20.That's how accidents happen because they are not big enough. OK.
:22:21. > :22:23.So when you say about accidents what do you mean?
:22:24. > :22:35.It isn't the lube that's the problem. Sometimes it can be, though.
:22:36. > :22:39.That's something you might think about trying. OK.
:22:40. > :22:43.So it's a sharp scratch. Are you all right? Yes.
:22:44. > :22:48.You don't look like you fully believe me.
:22:49. > :22:52.I could say something but I don t want to. Say whatever you want
:22:53. > :22:59.I don't normally need lube because I can get them all...
:23:00. > :23:04.Excited? Yes, OK. I wasn't doubting that for a minute.
:23:05. > :23:06.Do you mind if I pop your plaster on? No.
:23:07. > :23:11.Should be all right. You don't want one? No. OK.
:23:12. > :23:17.but health advisor Michelle still insists on the lube.
:23:18. > :23:21.Cocky patients, it might not be so much that they are cocky
:23:22. > :23:25.They might just be overconfident and they might feel that they
:23:26. > :23:28.have got to big themselves up a little bit.
:23:29. > :23:33.They've got to make out they're quite well endowed
:23:34. > :23:36.but I think that's with most men, isn't it?
:23:37. > :23:38.In reality, a condom is going to fit everyone.
:23:39. > :23:42.Often if there is a problem, it is down to lubrication.
:23:43. > :23:46.You're in luck. I've got a bit of a selection.
:23:47. > :23:49.I'm going to give you that one Pina colada flavour.
:23:50. > :23:52.I don't think the flavour really bothers me much.
:23:53. > :23:54.OK. I might be thinking of a friend.
:23:55. > :23:57.'You've just got to play along with it, really.
:23:58. > :24:03.Is that all right? Yes, that's fine, love.
:24:04. > :24:05.I quite like patients like that Thanks a lot.
:24:06. > :24:13.and they do tend to stick in your mind a bit more then.
:24:14. > :24:16.Just my personality, really. I get on with everyone.
:24:17. > :24:20.It's just a bit of banter, isn't it? They just need to make them bigger.
:24:21. > :24:25.With his pockets full of goodies, Karl heads home with a smile.
:24:26. > :24:41.But will he still be smiling when he gets his results?
:24:42. > :24:49.since party-loving Scott had his first STI test. Who is that?
:24:50. > :24:52.I do not have a clue. Where even are you?
:24:53. > :24:59.He often can't remember the drunken sex he's had with strangers.
:25:00. > :25:02.And his behaviour is giving his friends
:25:03. > :25:08.and family cause for concern. So how was the clinic? I've had a test done.
:25:09. > :25:13.Was it awkward? You know it was awkward. They took my blood.
:25:14. > :25:18.Oh, God. They'll find out next Wednesday the results.
:25:19. > :25:23.It's your fault for bringing all these bloody trannies round.
:25:24. > :25:29.Not all trannies. You don't really know what they are, to be honest.
:25:30. > :25:36.Just sort of like... who are they? You know.
:25:37. > :25:40.And then Mum and Dad get worried about you, you know.
:25:41. > :25:48.Just, you know, slow down. Not be as crazy, you know, like. .
:25:49. > :25:53.you're still young but, I mean just not going as crazy, you know?
:25:54. > :26:12.is it too late for Scott to take on his sister's advice?
:26:13. > :26:16.The boyfriend, is he... He's not my boyfriend!
:26:17. > :26:21.Jesus Christ, woman. Now you're starting to sound like a tart.
:26:22. > :26:26.25-year-old Chloe has come to visit her mum,
:26:27. > :26:31.who doesn't beat around the bush when it comes to talking about sex.
:26:32. > :26:35.You're much better off on your own than with some knob. Joking.
:26:36. > :26:42.A recent condom split has put Chloe in danger of infection.
:26:43. > :26:46.Well, I'd be seriously disappointed that you'd been
:26:47. > :26:53.But I have been using protection and I just had an accident,
:26:54. > :26:56.so if I've caught something from that...
:26:57. > :27:00.We will have to deal with it. Yes. You are in the right place.
:27:01. > :27:07.You will get results back and we all hope that you are not going to
:27:08. > :27:11.have anything nasty but they are out there.
:27:12. > :27:14.It's no longer a death sentence Even AIDS nowadays...
:27:15. > :27:21.God, I don't have AIDS. You have had an AIDS test!
:27:22. > :27:29.What happens if it comes back positive for AIDS?
:27:30. > :27:34.How would you feel about the person that gave me the hypothetical AIDS?
:27:35. > :27:44.One in 500 people in Leeds have the HIV virus.
:27:45. > :27:50.And one of the biggest groups affected is men who sleep with men.
:27:51. > :27:53.This is quite an interesting picture with all these Action Men
:27:54. > :28:03.but we are seeing more gay young men with HIV.
:28:04. > :28:06.You quite often find that people don't use condoms for oral sex
:28:07. > :28:10.so there's things that they can do to try to reduce risk like not
:28:11. > :28:14.getting them ejaculate in your mouth, not swallowing cum.
:28:15. > :28:19.We say "oral sex", they say "sucking", you know.
:28:20. > :28:21.It depends on the individual, doesn't it?
:28:22. > :28:28.when was the last time you were fucked, you know, would we?
:28:29. > :28:33.Worries about HIV have brought 22-year-old Iacopo to the clinic.
:28:34. > :28:37.Although the Italian is in a long-term relationship
:28:38. > :28:50.Take a seat, you can put your bag down there
:28:51. > :29:00.About infecting my boyfriend as well.
:29:01. > :29:07.Have you ever had one before? No, never. It's my first one.
:29:08. > :29:10.Is that your main concern today Yeah. OK.
:29:11. > :29:20.And is that somebody you're in a relationship with?
:29:21. > :29:24.Do you use condoms with him? Yeah. OK.
:29:25. > :29:31.And have you had sex with anybody else in the last three months? Yeah.
:29:32. > :29:35.Yeah - when was that? A month ago. A month ago.
:29:36. > :29:38.So, obviously, if you're having more than one partner,
:29:39. > :29:44.So we would try and say use condoms consistently,
:29:45. > :29:47.even with your regular partner as well.
:29:48. > :29:50.I'm going to test you for HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B. OK?
:29:51. > :29:53.Then we'll discuss with you about a health advisor,
:29:54. > :29:58.trying to get the results back as soon as possible. OK.
:29:59. > :30:05.Do you feel a bit better for coming here? Yeah, but still scared.
:30:06. > :30:07.I think it's nerve-racking, if it's all new to you.
:30:08. > :30:11.I hate blood tests. Do you? Yeah. Aw, right. It's very quick.
:30:12. > :30:14.I mean, we kind of have to ask everybody who comes through the door,
:30:15. > :30:18.um...you know...how would you feel about a positive result?
:30:19. > :30:22.I'm not suggesting it means you'll come back HIV-positive,
:30:23. > :30:25.but do you have anybody you can talk to?
:30:26. > :30:28.Do you have a good relationship with your partner? Yeah.
:30:29. > :30:30.He's the main reason I think I'm here.
:30:31. > :30:32.Right. The thing I'm scared about most
:30:33. > :30:36.is if it affects him, actually Yeah.
:30:37. > :30:59.the thing I'm scared of most is infecting my boyfriend as well
:31:00. > :31:02.Made you an appointment for half past ten on Tuesday, OK?
:31:03. > :31:07.Try not to worry. I know it's easy for me to say that, but...
:31:08. > :31:09.All right? I will. All right, take care.
:31:10. > :31:11.You'll feel better for coming in and having a screening.
:31:12. > :31:15.Iacopo not only has to face his results in one week's time. .
:31:16. > :31:19...but he also has to share the news with his long-tem boyfriend.
:31:20. > :31:25.If you get something like HIV, you get it for life, so it's..
:31:26. > :31:33.He's a young gay man who has had a few partners
:31:34. > :31:40.He did have condom split so, you know,
:31:41. > :31:53.At home, Karl's waiting for news from the clinic -
:31:54. > :31:56.and he's got good reason to be worried.
:31:57. > :32:00.I'm feeling a bit nervous, due to the last time I had a mishap
:32:01. > :32:11.that opened my eyes in a very big way.
:32:12. > :32:19.Had a one-night fling a few months ago and,
:32:20. > :32:24.it's like...I'd rather be safe than sorry.
:32:25. > :32:34.I just want to get these rumours proved wrong, that I am clean.
:32:35. > :32:41.I keep thinking it's a text, and it ain't.
:32:42. > :32:50.Hi, it's Alex, one of the staff nurses from Sexual Health.
:32:51. > :32:57.So I've got some results for you, Karl.
:32:58. > :33:06.You're all clear, so that's fantastic.
:33:07. > :33:09.Congratulations. Thank you. OK, mate, take care.
:33:10. > :33:23.The sense of relief must sometimes be...fantastic, really.
:33:24. > :33:33.He can enjoy his weekend now, can't he?
:33:34. > :33:38.Certainly. Through the door, up the stairs.
:33:39. > :33:46.When I first started working, it was...
:33:47. > :33:48.constantly, which got on people's nerves.
:33:49. > :33:54.So I had got it down to maybe just the two now.
:33:55. > :33:57.In Exeter, it's results day for Scott.
:33:58. > :34:00.The week-long wait has given him the chance to reflect
:34:01. > :34:09.Having something that can kill me slowly in time,
:34:10. > :34:13.I think that would be the worst thing.
:34:14. > :34:25.That would be...the worst nightmare of my whole life.
:34:26. > :34:30.What the hell are you meant to do then?
:34:31. > :34:48.So, we did the chlamydia and gonorrhoea test on urine.
:34:49. > :34:51.And that's all negative, all clear, so that's brilliant. Brilliant
:34:52. > :34:58.And then hepatitis B, hepatitis C, HIV and syphilis infections
:34:59. > :35:02.were screened negative, so that's all good news.
:35:03. > :35:09.Brilliant news - I'm all clear That's good.
:35:10. > :35:17.And reduce the number of partner changes,
:35:18. > :35:19.that's the way to go as well. Yeah.
:35:20. > :35:23.And sometimes we worry when alcohol gets in the way.
:35:24. > :35:27.It's normally alcohol... Mm. ..that blurs who it is, and ..
:35:28. > :35:32.And we do hear stories where people are lured to a party,
:35:33. > :35:34.go to the house, there's very few people there
:35:35. > :35:42.and you may be very vulnerable and rape can then occur.
:35:43. > :35:45.Do you need some condoms, while you're here?
:35:46. > :35:49.Got enough to keep you going. Yeah. That's OK.
:35:50. > :35:55.Take care of yourself, sweetheart. Thank you. Bye. Bye, then.
:35:56. > :36:02.Yeah, I'd feel good coming back and getting tested again,
:36:03. > :36:08.cos you know they're not going to judge you for anything.
:36:09. > :36:12.Scott's had a lucky escape, but will the clinic's advice
:36:13. > :36:18.to cut down on his drinking fall on deaf ears?
:36:19. > :36:23.So, guys, I went to the clinic got myself tested out, at last
:36:24. > :36:28.and, basically, I found out that I'm all clear of everything.
:36:29. > :36:31.So I really think we should hold a toast
:36:32. > :36:40.Tonight, Scott and his mates are going out on the town.
:36:41. > :37:05.Once inside, it's straight to the bar.
:37:06. > :37:10.But Scott's friends are hoping he won't be mixing his drinks
:37:11. > :37:12.Sometimes, he drinks the same amount as us
:37:13. > :37:16.but I don't think he can handle it as well.
:37:17. > :37:18.I don't think he feels confident enough to go out
:37:19. > :37:28.He had that litre of vodka, back at his, and I was like,
:37:29. > :37:48.I think if he keeps drinking like he is,
:37:49. > :37:52.Hopefully, he doesn't meet anyone, because I said to him,
:37:53. > :37:55."Don't sleep with anyone tonight", and he was like...
:37:56. > :38:05.We get really worried cos he goes off doing God knows what
:38:06. > :38:09.and, it kind of all seems like a joke when he tells you about it
:38:10. > :38:17.Until he wakes up with chlamydia or HIV or something really awful..
:38:18. > :38:41.Carl is celebrating his STI-freedom with his mate Bully
:38:42. > :38:47.Have you ever, ever been to a clinic in your life, you?
:38:48. > :38:51.I go at least every time I get with a new partner.
:38:52. > :38:55.Every time. So then I know I'm not fucking passing nowt on.
:38:56. > :38:58.I can't be responsible for this high of sexually-transmitted diseases
:38:59. > :39:05.Mr Responsible! I am responsible unlike you.
:39:06. > :39:08.Fuck that sticking fucking shit up my jap, man.
:39:09. > :39:11.They don't do nowt, mate, just take blood samples
:39:12. > :39:29.I have to sleep and shit. At least I have the balls to go and get cleaned
:39:30. > :39:41.This is why society nowadays is falling apart, bruv.
:39:42. > :39:44.Cos of all these STDs, cos no-one sees the point of going to get
:39:45. > :39:47.checked out. But I don't have one-night stands.
:39:48. > :39:50.No, but you've had women before and you still haven't been
:39:51. > :40:02.That was a kind of a shock that he hadn't even thought about it
:40:03. > :40:11.How would you know you both haven't got clap?
:40:12. > :40:16.That's why I said - "Do you fancy going to get checked?"
:40:17. > :40:23.At least it's your peace of mind knowing - "That's it, I'm clean "
:40:24. > :40:32.I'll get him down there. If I have to, I'll drag him down there.
:40:33. > :40:46.300 miles away in Exeter, it's results day for brothers
:40:47. > :40:51.You've got herpes. I don't have herpes.
:40:52. > :40:54.You got AIDS. Oof. Oof, that was a dark one.
:40:55. > :41:04.Actually, no. From that girl from the festival.
:41:05. > :41:10.No, not more like herpes. She was above somebody that would
:41:11. > :41:15.She'd have chlamydia, maybe. She could.
:41:16. > :41:19.HE LAUGHS Anything. Get the menu out.
:41:20. > :41:23.To pass the time, they mull over the latest sexual trends.
:41:24. > :41:28.OK, another one I've heard of is called iglooing, apparently.
:41:29. > :41:30.That's a new one. Bear with me here...
:41:31. > :41:36.And puts it in the freezer until it gets solid and then
:41:37. > :41:38.uses it as... A dildo, don't say...
:41:39. > :41:40.Pretty much a dildo. Don't say dildo. Yeah.
:41:41. > :41:42.Well, it's a makeshift dildo. That's horrible.
:41:43. > :41:46.Yeah. Have you ever heard... Why not just get a cucumber? Go to Tesco.
:41:47. > :41:49.I've never heard of that one before. Put a condom round a cucumber.
:41:50. > :41:51.Just get a dildo. Why would you shit in a condom
:41:52. > :41:55.That one as well but why would you shit in a condom?
:41:56. > :41:59.I hope you don't have anything after all this time waiting.
:42:00. > :42:15.All clear. I heard all clear. All right, perfect.
:42:16. > :42:22.Well, I've got my brother here as well.
:42:23. > :42:30.Negative, good stuff. No HIV, no syphilis. Thank you. All done.
:42:31. > :42:32.Surprising. It's not surprising, I knew.
:42:33. > :42:40.We got lucky, didn't we? Got lucky, and got lucky.
:42:41. > :42:50.Sex can still be fun with a plastic bag on.
:42:51. > :42:53.Up in Leeds, Carl is back at the clinic.
:42:54. > :42:59.he convinced his mate Bully to get tested too.
:43:00. > :43:04.But it looks like Bully's not feeling so bullish.
:43:05. > :43:07.I think a lot of people are really frightened about coming in,
:43:08. > :43:10.especially guys, they've got this idea that we're going to put
:43:11. > :43:12.this umbrella down their penis which we've never done.
:43:13. > :43:16.I'm outside flipping clinic, where are you?
:43:17. > :43:20.that reassurance that we're not that scary.
:43:21. > :43:37.All right, Bully. At long last I thought you weren't going to come.
:43:38. > :43:40.Bully's been in a relationship for four years.
:43:41. > :43:43.Have you spoke to misses about coming here?
:43:44. > :43:46.Yeah, I've told her, yeah. What she say?
:43:47. > :43:50.She thinks I'm up to something Guilty conscience.
:43:51. > :43:54.While Bully's girlfriend had a test before they got together
:43:55. > :43:56.Bully didn't see the need. Hi-ya.
:43:57. > :43:59.Lads, a lot of them think it's down to the girl.
:44:00. > :44:02.If they're all right, then I'll be aright.
:44:03. > :44:08.Sometimes, the girl will instigate and get them checked out
:44:09. > :44:12.because men sometimes need a push to get checked out.
:44:13. > :44:16.I thought it was for gay people and people that slept about.
:44:17. > :44:19.I thought that's what clinic were for.
:44:20. > :44:27.Get it filled in. Do you have a long term disability? Yes, him. Thanks.
:44:28. > :44:31.Have you seen the chick behind the counter? Which girl?
:44:32. > :44:35.The redhead, the one that was in there.
:44:36. > :44:44.You pervert. You're like a puppy. Ooh. Shut up.
:44:45. > :44:56.Yes. Hi there, do you want to come through, I'm Rachel. Hiya.
:44:57. > :45:03.I'll take your notes, nice to meet you,
:45:04. > :45:07.I'll make sure your details are correct, OK? Yep.
:45:08. > :45:10.So you last had sex a week ago is that with someone regular?
:45:11. > :45:13.Yes, that's with my partner. OK, male or female? Female.
:45:14. > :45:15.What we would say, the way to work it is,
:45:16. > :45:18.when you first get with someone use condoms,
:45:19. > :45:21.and when you feel like that person's for you, we would say
:45:22. > :45:25.both get checked out and then have unprotected sex,
:45:26. > :45:28.cos if you found out you are chlamydia positive, the first
:45:29. > :45:31.question the girl's going to ask is "How long have I had this
:45:32. > :45:36.And these infections can cause problems with fertility,
:45:37. > :45:47.good to get checked out at the beginning of the relationship, OK.
:45:48. > :45:51.So, what I'm going to do is get you to pass urine for me,
:45:52. > :45:58.I'm going take your blood for HIV and syphilis, OK.
:45:59. > :46:15.Carl embarks on a more risky assignment.
:46:16. > :46:29.I don't think it's the place to pick up anyone, do you?
:46:30. > :46:32.Good morning, Leeds Centre For Sexual Health
:46:33. > :46:36.And just put it on the little hatch, which is in the toilet, OK.
:46:37. > :46:42.From our point of view, he does need checking for chlamydia.
:46:43. > :46:45.If your partner has a negative set of results, you can't take
:46:46. > :46:48.that as read that means your results are negative
:46:49. > :46:51.We have had partners where one is positive and one is negative,
:46:52. > :46:56.So we would just say, "When you first get with someone,
:46:57. > :46:59."that's the time to get checked out."
:47:00. > :47:04.So you get your results in about three weeks, bruv. Three weeks? Yup.
:47:05. > :47:15.That were painless though, wasn't it? It were all right.
:47:16. > :47:21.Chloe's expecting her results and the wait is bringing back memories
:47:22. > :47:28.I just assumed everything would be fine,
:47:29. > :47:31.and then it wasn't and it just completely spiralled me out
:47:32. > :47:35.and then everything was fine, got the all clear.
:47:36. > :47:38.But if they hadn't caught it and I hadn't gone for my smear,
:47:39. > :47:44.the likelihood is it can progress into something more horrible.
