0:00:02 > 0:00:03Elizabeth Bligh, will you marry me?

0:00:03 > 0:00:05Yes, I will.

0:00:05 > 0:00:07Mrs Douglas Goddard.

0:00:07 > 0:00:09ALL: Elizabeth.

0:00:09 > 0:00:12In the Catholic Church, annulment is possible

0:00:12 > 0:00:14under certain conditions.

0:00:14 > 0:00:16It wouldn't just be because I can't have children.

0:00:16 > 0:00:18You lied to me.

0:00:18 > 0:00:20SHE SOBS

0:00:21 > 0:00:22I do love you.

0:00:27 > 0:00:29PRAYING IN HEBREW

0:00:33 > 0:00:34David Bligh.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36How could I love you and deny you that?

0:00:36 > 0:00:38You stay right there.

0:00:38 > 0:00:40Don't think I won't hurt him.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43Give me the excuse.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46See me committed - supplies my defence.

0:00:46 > 0:00:51Not guilty by reason of insanity.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53She's mentally unhinged.

0:00:53 > 0:00:57Jack described it as megalomania.

0:00:57 > 0:00:58A condition seeded years ago.

0:01:20 > 0:01:22BAGPIPES PLAY

0:01:44 > 0:01:48They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.

0:01:49 > 0:01:53Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

0:01:54 > 0:02:00At the going down of the sun and in the morning we will remember them.

0:02:01 > 0:02:02ALL: Lest we forget.

0:02:07 > 0:02:09LAST POST PLAYS

0:02:44 > 0:02:47- RADIO:- And now we shall observe a two-minute silence.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57COUGHING

0:03:06 > 0:03:07# Mad about the boy

0:03:08 > 0:03:13# I know it's stupid to be mad about the boy

0:03:14 > 0:03:17# I'm so ashamed... #

0:03:29 > 0:03:31Guard.

0:03:31 > 0:03:33Guard!

0:03:33 > 0:03:37- Quiet.- I need to see Dr Samuels as soon as possible.

0:03:37 > 0:03:38Please.

0:03:56 > 0:03:58CAR HORN TOOTS

0:03:58 > 0:04:00You warmongers!

0:04:00 > 0:04:02Bloody delinquent.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07Just a dreadful boy. Who was that lass?

0:04:07 > 0:04:10- I couldn't quite see. - I'm not sure.

0:04:24 > 0:04:26- Tea, Mr Fox?- I'll have breakfast at the hospital.

0:04:26 > 0:04:29- See that's posted with the other mail.- Yes, sir.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53- Come here.- Not now, Ed.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06I'm just saying that it was stupid.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08- If they saw me...- They were too busy looking at me.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10..they'll tell Uncle Isaac.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12HE IMPERSONATES BUGLE

0:05:12 > 0:05:14He'll never believe that all we did was talk.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19- I've got to go.- You'll think about what I said?

0:05:21 > 0:05:22You can do it.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49Yeah, well, the little mongrel needs the riot act read.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52- No respect.- Not like when you were young, eh?

0:05:52 > 0:05:53There were none of them shenanigans.

0:05:53 > 0:05:57From what I hear you were a bit of a lad yourself.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59Come on. Breakfast.

0:05:59 > 0:06:00He is always worse when he's hungry.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03- Yes.- Man can't even have his say.

0:06:03 > 0:06:04Once he's fed, he can.

0:06:04 > 0:06:06She's got him well tamed.

0:06:06 > 0:06:08Someone should give it to that kid.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10I'm sure someone will.

0:06:11 > 0:06:12George looks trapped.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15- We can drop you if you like. - I'll wait.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17That Aboriginal fellow dashed off.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21Guess we'll never know where they stand.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23- At things like this?- Sadly.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26It changes from town to town.

0:06:40 > 0:06:42Come on, mate, do us both a favour.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45OK? One or the other. Over there, out of the way.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47Is this more than it appears?

0:06:47 > 0:06:51Anzac Day's got its share of drunks, but this one takes the cake for an early start.

0:06:51 > 0:06:53Why don't you settle him on the bench?

0:06:53 > 0:06:56- Respect the day, man.- Hey, hey.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58- I've got this.- Call the police if he won't settle.

0:07:02 > 0:07:05I'll pass that on to the Prime Minister.

0:07:05 > 0:07:07The country's going to rack and ruin.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10You can't legislate against youthful exuberance.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12You should be able to for respect.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14I'm sure Sister Nordmann agrees.

0:07:14 > 0:07:18- I do.- As I'm sure Mr Menzies will.

0:07:18 > 0:07:19Indeed, indeed.

0:07:21 > 0:07:23- Indeed.- You know that boy, don't you?

0:07:24 > 0:07:28- Larry Grey.- Is he as bad as that would indicate?

0:07:28 > 0:07:30Well, I hope not, for Isaac Gold's sake.

0:07:34 > 0:07:35Sara.

0:07:37 > 0:07:40The dawn service, of course. It explains the hour.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43Well, we were passing and I know you're early risers.

0:07:43 > 0:07:47I have something to ask Leah, to do with the women's clinic.

0:07:47 > 0:07:48It's about one of her friends.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52Women's matters, huh?

0:07:52 > 0:07:54- In private, then? - That would be best.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57- We'll be seeing you tonight for Shabbos?- Of course.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00Tonight, George.

0:08:04 > 0:08:05Leah, Mrs Nordmann is here.

0:08:05 > 0:08:08Don't keep her waiting, be a good girl.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16I just woke up. You're early.

0:08:18 > 0:08:22I saw you. You're lucky Doris Collins didn't.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25It's best discussed before tonight.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30- Are you going to tell? - Depends what answers I get.

0:08:30 > 0:08:31It's nothing to do with you.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33Your Aunt Miriam asked me to look after you.

0:08:33 > 0:08:34I can look after myself.

0:08:37 > 0:08:40So I assume you snuck out after your uncle fell asleep and Larry

0:08:40 > 0:08:42was bringing you home. Yes?

0:08:45 > 0:08:48It's because we're going. I won't see him for ages.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50It was the first time.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52- What were you doing? - Not what you think!

0:08:52 > 0:08:53I don't know what to think!

0:08:57 > 0:08:59Does... Does Isaac know that you're seeing him?

0:08:59 > 0:09:01He's not Jewish. Of course not.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05I do know what I'm doing.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09I see girls every day at the clinic who think they're in control

0:09:09 > 0:09:10until they're not.

0:09:10 > 0:09:14They end up with a child, a reputation or both.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17- It'd break your uncle's heart. - He's dragging me off to Israel!

0:09:17 > 0:09:19- He's breaking mine!- To meet family.

0:09:19 > 0:09:23- I don't even know them! - That's not the point, Leah.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25So what? I stayed out.

0:09:25 > 0:09:28I shouldn't have come back, then Uncle couldn't drag me off.

0:09:28 > 0:09:30Tell him, if you like. I don't care.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32Listen, there's no need to upset him,

0:09:32 > 0:09:34if you promise you won't do it again.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36I'll be on that boat before I get a chance.

0:09:40 > 0:09:42I promise.

0:09:43 > 0:09:44But it's not fair.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50Losing your aunt was pain enough.

0:09:52 > 0:09:53For both of you.

0:09:56 > 0:09:57I'll hold you to that.

0:10:01 > 0:10:02Off you go.

0:10:05 > 0:10:06Thank you.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14Ah, Gary. I thought we may not see you this year.

0:10:14 > 0:10:17I hear you found employment.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19Wouldn't miss this for quids, ma'am.

0:10:19 > 0:10:22Well, it's a highlight of my calendar, too.

0:10:22 > 0:10:23Enjoy your breakfast.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27COUGHING

0:10:44 > 0:10:46You really should get that seen to.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48I'm all right. Morning air.

0:10:54 > 0:10:56You think it's OK, him yelling like that?

0:10:56 > 0:11:00To his generation, war is Russia and the A-bomb.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02Glorifying it seems insane.

0:11:02 > 0:11:03There'll be no winners in World War III.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05No-one was glorifying anything.

0:11:05 > 0:11:10It's respect. Another world war is more likely if we do forget.

0:11:10 > 0:11:12That's how the younger generation sees it.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14Only yahoos like him.

0:11:15 > 0:11:16Oh, God.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20We'll have the staff talking the way he's going.

0:11:20 > 0:11:22We have Olivia's family wondering at the other end.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24Friends write to friends.

0:11:24 > 0:11:25Almost every day.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29He addresses it Mr and Mrs.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32At worst they'll think he has a crush on her.

0:11:32 > 0:11:34Or they'll work it out.

0:11:34 > 0:11:36We don't need a new head of surgery with that reputation.

0:11:36 > 0:11:40- Jack!- I'll be glad when his quarters are done and he'll be gone.

0:11:42 > 0:11:44TYPING

0:11:53 > 0:11:57- You're keen. - I thought of a passage.

0:11:57 > 0:11:59- There's coffee.- Let's see.

0:11:59 > 0:12:02When I'm finished - the book, not the passage.

0:12:02 > 0:12:05Which is when? You keep avoiding the question.

0:12:05 > 0:12:07It's not coming as well as I'd like.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10The publisher has a right to chivvy.

0:12:10 > 0:12:12- Top up?- Please.

0:12:12 > 0:12:14And your lover has a right to a kiss.

0:12:36 > 0:12:39Tell David I love him and not to torment the cats.

0:12:40 > 0:12:43- I used to tease animals at his age. - Then he's his father's son.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49I should be finished by mid-afternoon.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05- What happened? - He's drunk as a skunk.

0:13:05 > 0:13:08- He's sleeping it off. - I saw him at the dawn service,

0:13:08 > 0:13:09he seemed quite sober.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13Hello, sir?

0:13:14 > 0:13:16Hello?

0:13:17 > 0:13:18Is everything...

0:13:28 > 0:13:30All right, I'm going to need some help here.

0:13:30 > 0:13:32- Mr Fox said to leave him. - Mr Fox was wrong.

0:13:34 > 0:13:35Quickly!

0:13:36 > 0:13:39I'm just going to take you inside, all right?

0:13:39 > 0:13:41Get his head, get his head.

0:13:42 > 0:13:45Here we go. One, two, three, up.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49- Is room two free?- Yes.

0:13:49 > 0:13:52- I told her.- We have better uses for the bed, Sister.

0:13:52 > 0:13:53He can sober up outside.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55He's going into a diabetic coma.

0:13:55 > 0:13:59I need IV fluids set up immediately and urgent bloods to check his glucose levels.

0:13:59 > 0:14:03- Sister, we...- You'd have seen it if you'd bothered to look,

0:14:03 > 0:14:04doctor on duty.

0:14:04 > 0:14:07- I think...- Which you might have if he were white.

0:14:09 > 0:14:10Now, Valda.

0:14:20 > 0:14:23KNOCK AT DOOR Come.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26Oh.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28Can you close the door?

0:14:31 > 0:14:33We're beyond the need for such caution.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35- One would hope.- Please take a seat.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39Thank you for making me a priority.

0:14:40 > 0:14:43- I've had a breakthrough.- Yes?

0:14:43 > 0:14:46I was tidying my room this morning, humming.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48I suddenly realised what...

0:14:48 > 0:14:49Mad About The Boy.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55You'll find it somewhere in your notes.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57It was my sister's favourite song.

0:14:57 > 0:15:00I'd feel fury whenever I heard it.

0:15:00 > 0:15:01It reminded you of her?

0:15:01 > 0:15:05Elaine and George danced to it the night he proposed.

0:15:05 > 0:15:06Our song, she called it.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09And this morning?

0:15:11 > 0:15:12I found myself humming it...

0:15:13 > 0:15:15..and feeling nothing.

0:15:16 > 0:15:18Surely that's significant.

0:15:18 > 0:15:19One could think so.

0:15:21 > 0:15:25It made me review a lot of things, like the word "Jew".

0:15:25 > 0:15:27- Ah.- And Sarah.

0:15:27 > 0:15:29I tested them on my tongue.

0:15:29 > 0:15:32- This morning? - After registering the song.- And?

0:15:33 > 0:15:35They didn't taste of hate.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38They didn't taste at all.

0:15:39 > 0:15:40They're simply words.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45I've made a decision.

0:15:46 > 0:15:48Yes?

0:15:48 > 0:15:49I know you'll be pleased.

0:16:02 > 0:16:03Daddy!

0:16:03 > 0:16:05Oh, you cheeky monkey!

0:16:07 > 0:16:10- Has he behaved himself? - Yes, sir.

0:16:10 > 0:16:15Mummy says that she loves you but you have to stop teasing the cats.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17- Where is she?- Oh, she's very busy.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19She had to start work early this morning.

0:16:19 > 0:16:22- She told you that last night, remember?- No.

0:16:22 > 0:16:25You were probably too busy teasing the cats.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29George! Telephone.

0:16:30 > 0:16:31You will want to take this.

0:16:34 > 0:16:36I see.

0:16:36 > 0:16:38Yes, I... I understand.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41I can't get away today.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45I'll come tomorrow. Expect me late morning.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49Thank you, Doctor.

0:16:52 > 0:16:54Nothing for three years.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57You've made it perfectly clear you want no contact with Regina.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02She's finally offering a divorce.

0:17:03 > 0:17:05And she wants to see me.

0:17:11 > 0:17:15She's made significant strides, according to her doctor.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18- If she shoulders the blame... - She could be up to her old tricks.

0:17:18 > 0:17:21After nothing for so long? Why now?

0:17:23 > 0:17:24Then you'll see her?

0:17:26 > 0:17:27If Sarah agrees.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29Agrees to what?

0:17:31 > 0:17:34It's a wonder you're not flying with those ears.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36Flap, flap, flap.

0:17:41 > 0:17:42I'll risk it.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45With her blessing.

0:17:49 > 0:17:52No nurse speaks to me like that in my own hospital, no matter who she is.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55- Your hospital?- Yes.

0:17:55 > 0:17:57I head surgery, you head general. We liaise as a courtesy.

0:17:57 > 0:18:00Those were the conditions under which I accepted the post.

0:18:00 > 0:18:02You accepted to be near James.

0:18:02 > 0:18:06It was a professional choice with clear terms attached.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09We've been tiptoeing around the issue since I arrived.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12- Best we face it. - We can sort that out later.

0:18:13 > 0:18:16It's fair to assume Sarah spoke in the heat of the moment.

0:18:16 > 0:18:17KNOCK AT DOOR

0:18:17 > 0:18:19Yes.

0:18:19 > 0:18:20You asked to see me?

0:18:22 > 0:18:24How's the patient?

0:18:24 > 0:18:26Stabilised.

0:18:26 > 0:18:30His blood glucose level was low, caused by severe dehydration.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32He skipped breakfast to attend the service.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34He was lucky that we caught it in time.

0:18:34 > 0:18:37His symptoms were easily confused with inebriation.

0:18:39 > 0:18:43- It might have been best if I'd checked.- Yes. But you made an assumption.

0:18:43 > 0:18:45Henry didn't appreciate your tone earlier.

0:18:45 > 0:18:46Mr Fox.

0:18:48 > 0:18:52Had anyone else snarled at me like that, they'd already be suffering the consequences.

0:18:52 > 0:18:54I'll overlook it this time,

0:18:54 > 0:18:58but any suggestion of racial prejudice will result in disciplinary action.

0:18:59 > 0:19:02Now I'm sure that you expect to be treated as I would treat

0:19:02 > 0:19:03any other nurse.

0:19:05 > 0:19:06Thank you, Sister.

0:19:11 > 0:19:14He's like two different men.

0:19:14 > 0:19:17Henry at home and Mr Fox here.

0:19:17 > 0:19:20Surgeons. God complex.

0:19:20 > 0:19:22They're all sticklers.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24Can't be easy for him,

0:19:24 > 0:19:27having James leave as soon as he uprooted to be here.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29We've been making excuses since he arrived.

0:19:29 > 0:19:30Because we like him.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34I've never been as keen as others.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36Less now he's showing his hand.

0:19:53 > 0:19:54This happened before.

0:20:03 > 0:20:04I should have paid more attention.

0:20:04 > 0:20:08Old black fella, drunk. It goes together right.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12I don't recall thinking that.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14It helps the conscience not to.

0:20:16 > 0:20:18Monitor your condition more closely in future.

0:20:43 > 0:20:46It's trying to warm up. It was freezing earlier.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48- The service went well?- Yes.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51It was wonderful to see them feeling so proud.

0:20:51 > 0:20:55Saint Elizabeth, the patron saint of damaged veterans.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58They do have a tendency to idealise me.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00Perish the thought you might deserve it!

0:21:00 > 0:21:03If anyone's a saint, it's Douglas.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09And you, my darling, you've been conspicuous by your absence these

0:21:09 > 0:21:13- last few weeks. - It's a beautiful teapot.

0:21:13 > 0:21:14From Morocco.

0:21:15 > 0:21:16You're working hard?

0:21:18 > 0:21:21I'm finding the second book a struggle, to tell you the truth.

0:21:22 > 0:21:25The curse of a bestseller.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27- One must follow it. - The sophomore dilemma.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31What about your bottom drawer?

0:21:31 > 0:21:36Not House Of Lies, obviously, but your first novel.

0:21:36 > 0:21:39- Tender Vines?- Yeah, the dago experience is in vogue

0:21:39 > 0:21:40thanks to They're A Weird Mob.

0:21:40 > 0:21:42I thought about it, but...

0:21:43 > 0:21:45..it contains too much Gino.

0:21:47 > 0:21:48It's too painful to revisit.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52So where does that leave you?

0:21:52 > 0:21:56Oh. Single divorcee with writer's block and a publisher who believes

0:21:56 > 0:21:59she is much further on with her second book than she is.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04Consider Tender Vines.

0:22:06 > 0:22:10It might help to heal wounds too long in healing.

0:22:17 > 0:22:20No sign of him and no idea where he might have gone.

0:22:20 > 0:22:24- No-one took his details? - Well, they were about to when they discovered he'd disappeared.

0:22:24 > 0:22:25At least he's stabilised.

0:22:25 > 0:22:28He needs monitoring. With his blood pressure and glucose levels he

0:22:28 > 0:22:31- could lapse into a coma any time. - I'll ask around.- Make it a priority.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34- Anything?- No.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38I want you to know that we resolved our misunderstandings.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41Whatever his reason for leaving, it had nothing to do with me.

0:22:41 > 0:22:45I'm not sure such misunderstandings are so easily resolved, Mr Fox.

0:22:45 > 0:22:48You have a lot to learn about country hospitals.

0:22:50 > 0:22:52I'm due in theatre.

0:22:55 > 0:22:57- Don't prod the lion. - Well, after what you told me,

0:22:57 > 0:22:59it establishes where my loyalties lie.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25Elbows off the table. There we go.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47Would you like to join me?

0:23:47 > 0:23:51- Of course. Go to Dad. There we go.- That's the boy.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59PRAYING IN HEBREW

0:24:08 > 0:24:09BOTH: Good Shabbos.

0:24:13 > 0:24:15Good Shabbos.

0:24:19 > 0:24:21ALL: Good Shabbos.

0:24:44 > 0:24:48Having to light the candles because she refuses must hurt him.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51He was almost too ashamed to ask me to join him.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55You're welcome to our rituals. It's important.

0:24:58 > 0:25:01You think it's connected to Miriam's death?

0:25:01 > 0:25:03Only partly.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06For years she was separated with the TB and...

0:25:07 > 0:25:10..now she wants to fit in. Add hormones to that.

0:25:17 > 0:25:19A nightcap, I think.

0:25:19 > 0:25:21You?

0:25:21 > 0:25:22Brandy. Thank you.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26Drinking alone depresses me.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30Can't be easy for you.

0:25:30 > 0:25:31Stuck down here.

0:25:32 > 0:25:35I make the occasional dash to the city for a top-up.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40With my job's filthy hours... Thank you.

0:25:42 > 0:25:44I didn't mean that to sound patronising.

0:25:44 > 0:25:47No. No, it's realistic.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51- I fill mine as best can. Chin-chin.- Cheers.

0:25:52 > 0:25:54Not always successfully.

0:25:58 > 0:26:00Jack told me about today.

0:26:03 > 0:26:06My brief is specific -

0:26:06 > 0:26:09to create a modern surgical facility.

0:26:09 > 0:26:11Jack's hospital meanders along in the past.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14As does Inverness.

0:26:14 > 0:26:16Well, perhaps both need dragging into the future.

0:26:16 > 0:26:17Kicking and screaming.

0:26:20 > 0:26:21I support my husband.

0:26:22 > 0:26:25As James would me, if he were here.

0:26:25 > 0:26:26You must be missing him.

0:26:28 > 0:26:31Do you really see this charade as necessary?

0:26:31 > 0:26:33It will help Olivia announce their divorce without too many

0:26:33 > 0:26:35awkward questions arising.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38Her father loathes homosexuals.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40Ironic, given his son.

0:26:40 > 0:26:42All the more reason for James to go and play the errant husband with the

0:26:42 > 0:26:45roving eye for the ladies.

0:26:45 > 0:26:48Well, him leaving his wife caused enough conjecture.

0:26:55 > 0:26:56I have a point about the hospital.

0:26:58 > 0:27:01I don't see why he's so resistant to change.

0:27:01 > 0:27:02Goodnight.

0:27:04 > 0:27:05Goodnight.

0:27:09 > 0:27:12You're sure you're comfortable with my seeing Regina?

0:27:13 > 0:27:15Well, we have to listen.

0:27:15 > 0:27:19We can't make our choice unless you hear her out.

0:27:19 > 0:27:22I have a knot in the pit of my stomach at the thought of it.

0:27:22 > 0:27:23Rather you than me.

0:27:25 > 0:27:27- I'll see you off in the morning. - There's no need.

0:27:27 > 0:27:28David will want to say goodbye.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41Sleep well.

0:27:41 > 0:27:42You, too.

0:28:18 > 0:28:20KNOCKING

0:28:25 > 0:28:27Shh.

0:28:29 > 0:28:31- I had to see you.- She didn't tell.

0:28:32 > 0:28:34Have you thought about what I said?

0:28:35 > 0:28:37I can't.

0:28:38 > 0:28:42- He can't take you away if you're not here.- Where would I go?

0:28:42 > 0:28:44Anyway, I... I promised.

0:28:44 > 0:28:47I've got a spot. I'd hide you, you'd be safe.

0:28:52 > 0:28:54We can do it.

0:28:55 > 0:28:56OK, tomorrow.

0:29:06 > 0:29:08I'll bring you back a present.

0:29:08 > 0:29:10An elephant?

0:29:10 > 0:29:11We'll see.

0:29:13 > 0:29:16- Good luck.- For mother.

0:29:16 > 0:29:18From Cook. Give her our love.

0:29:18 > 0:29:20Shall do.

0:29:20 > 0:29:22Drive carefully.

0:29:25 > 0:29:27- Bye-bye.- Bye-bye.

0:29:33 > 0:29:34Nervous?

0:29:35 > 0:29:37It's a good thing.

0:29:37 > 0:29:39On the face of it.

0:29:39 > 0:29:42When could Regina ever be taken at face value?

0:29:42 > 0:29:44HORN BEEPS

0:29:44 > 0:29:45Can you go with Auntie Carolyn?

0:29:45 > 0:29:48Come on. Race you.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56Got a beady on your bloke late last night.

0:29:56 > 0:29:59Moved here about a week ago into old Tommo's shack.

0:29:59 > 0:30:00OK, let's go.

0:30:02 > 0:30:04Move over there, old mate.

0:30:25 > 0:30:27Mr Gibbs?

0:30:28 > 0:30:30Hello?

0:30:30 > 0:30:32Mr Gibbs, are you there?

0:30:35 > 0:30:36In for a penny.

0:30:37 > 0:30:40Frank? Frank!

0:30:40 > 0:30:42Hey! Frank!

0:30:42 > 0:30:44- Is he dead?- No, he's unconscious.

0:30:44 > 0:30:46Can you bring the truck further up?

0:30:46 > 0:30:49- That's it, Frank. Good.- Strewth.

0:30:49 > 0:30:52Focus on the sound of my voice, all right? OK.

0:30:52 > 0:30:54Just putting you down.

0:30:56 > 0:30:58I need you to swallow this, mate.

0:30:58 > 0:31:02Here we go. That's it. Swallow it down. That's it.

0:31:03 > 0:31:06OK, come here. That's it. That's it.

0:31:42 > 0:31:43I must look drab.

0:31:45 > 0:31:48Grooming in here consists of a comb and lipstick, if one is lucky.

0:31:50 > 0:31:52Oh, it's my natural colour.

0:31:52 > 0:31:55It supports my need to change, don't you think?

0:31:55 > 0:31:57As long as you are well.

0:31:58 > 0:32:00I work to regain my sanity.

0:32:01 > 0:32:03I hope you succeed.

0:32:04 > 0:32:06It's why the courts put me here.

0:32:06 > 0:32:08She is making great progress.

0:32:10 > 0:32:13I trust the family is well.

0:32:13 > 0:32:14They are.

0:32:14 > 0:32:15Your son?

0:32:18 > 0:32:19He's a fine boy.

0:32:19 > 0:32:22I regret my actions there.

0:32:22 > 0:32:24But that's not why you're here.

0:32:26 > 0:32:28Given that neither of us deserted the other,

0:32:28 > 0:32:32such desertion is no grounds for divorce.

0:32:32 > 0:32:36Ours can only come with blame - either mine or yours.

0:32:36 > 0:32:39Should you take it, Sarah and David will be dragged through the mire of

0:32:39 > 0:32:42open court. Should I, however...

0:32:44 > 0:32:46..what reputation have I to lose?

0:32:47 > 0:32:50I no longer derive pleasure from denying you your future.

0:32:51 > 0:32:53I will accept full blame.

0:32:54 > 0:32:57This is a huge breakthrough for Mrs Bligh.

0:32:57 > 0:32:59It's progress we've worked hard to achieve.

0:33:05 > 0:33:08Given past manipulations, you're...

0:33:08 > 0:33:09..dubious, naturally.

0:33:11 > 0:33:13It's no ruse.

0:33:13 > 0:33:15It's no attempt to re-enter your life.

0:33:16 > 0:33:20Let me pave the way for you to be the father and husband you wish to be.

0:33:24 > 0:33:27I'm sure it will aid a further term in parliament, too.

0:33:32 > 0:33:33Convey my regrets to all.

0:33:35 > 0:33:37I will consider your offer.

0:33:41 > 0:33:43Will you come back and tell me in person?

0:33:44 > 0:33:48In your own time. Others are involved, I understand.

0:33:56 > 0:33:57Bravo.

0:33:58 > 0:34:00Help him understand.

0:34:07 > 0:34:11How do you know she's not manipulating both of us?

0:34:11 > 0:34:13She's been here three years.

0:34:13 > 0:34:15The past year in my care.

0:34:15 > 0:34:18You last saw her at her trial.

0:34:18 > 0:34:19Trust me to know what she's become.

0:34:22 > 0:34:23I will need time.

0:34:35 > 0:34:37THEY TALK QUIETLY

0:34:37 > 0:34:38Thank you.

0:34:43 > 0:34:45Thank you.

0:34:48 > 0:34:50- Sister.- Yes, Doris?

0:34:50 > 0:34:52I imagined the rear veranda.

0:34:53 > 0:34:55For?

0:34:55 > 0:34:57Some may feel uncomfortable.

0:34:57 > 0:34:59- About?- Sharing.

0:35:02 > 0:35:04Mr Gibbs seems very comfortable.

0:35:04 > 0:35:07- I meant...- I know what you meant.

0:35:07 > 0:35:10I speak of others, of course, not myself.

0:35:10 > 0:35:13I have no problem with the Aboriginals.

0:35:13 > 0:35:14I'm sure you don't.

0:35:18 > 0:35:19Back amongst us.

0:35:19 > 0:35:22That's twice you've saved me now..

0:35:22 > 0:35:25I've earned the right to say "stay put" until you're discharged.

0:35:27 > 0:35:29If you feel uncomfortable...

0:35:29 > 0:35:31I'm used to it.

0:35:31 > 0:35:32I imagine.

0:35:33 > 0:35:35I've got to get back to the clinic, so you rest up.

0:35:39 > 0:35:41I saw your paintings.

0:35:41 > 0:35:42- Yes.- They're lovely.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46It's something I do when I don't have any jobs on.

0:35:46 > 0:35:49Should they be left like that?

0:35:49 > 0:35:51Inverness big on art thieves?

0:35:51 > 0:35:53I'd hate for anything to happen to them.

0:35:53 > 0:35:56- They'll be fine.- I'll lock the place up as soon as I can manage a break.

0:35:56 > 0:35:58Don't bother.

0:35:58 > 0:36:00Better safe than sorry.

0:36:00 > 0:36:01Seems like fine work.

0:36:03 > 0:36:04Nurse...

0:36:06 > 0:36:08Rest up.

0:36:08 > 0:36:09Thanks again.

0:36:28 > 0:36:30She's got five kids and she's got better things to do.

0:36:30 > 0:36:33Mr O'Rourke, any lump in the breast should be examined by a doctor.

0:36:33 > 0:36:35It's hardly even there, it's nothing.

0:36:35 > 0:36:37He can decide that.

0:36:37 > 0:36:39Look, just scratch out her name, all right?

0:36:39 > 0:36:42- She won't be coming in.- SHE made the appointment, SHE should cancel it.

0:36:42 > 0:36:45- Well, I'm her husband. - And she will need your support.

0:36:45 > 0:36:47Is there something wrong?

0:36:47 > 0:36:49Yeah. This place.

0:36:49 > 0:36:51Making mountains out of molehills.

0:36:51 > 0:36:53Your Sheila's husband, aren't you?

0:36:53 > 0:36:57Well, not that you'd know it with the weight Lady Muck's been.

0:36:57 > 0:36:58A man has rights, you know?

0:36:58 > 0:37:02They'll be cold comfort if the lump is serious and not seen to.

0:37:02 > 0:37:04- It's hardly even a bump. - But it's there.

0:37:05 > 0:37:07Do you want her death on your conscience?

0:37:11 > 0:37:13That's a low ruddy blow.

0:37:19 > 0:37:21Another satisfied customer.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24You'll let me know when Mrs Partridge arrives?

0:37:24 > 0:37:28- She's moved to five. You've got a breather.- Good.

0:37:28 > 0:37:30- That is perfect timing.- For?

0:37:33 > 0:37:35I hope you won't mind me taking a look.

0:37:35 > 0:37:37I don't see the harm.

0:37:37 > 0:37:38You've got me intrigued.

0:37:42 > 0:37:44What do you think?

0:37:45 > 0:37:48I've seen a lot worse than this on exhibition.

0:37:49 > 0:37:51He's only just arrived?

0:37:51 > 0:37:53Tommo's away, I assume Frank knows him.

0:37:54 > 0:37:56How un-Inverness.

0:37:57 > 0:38:00- He's a good artist. - Yes.- Very much so.

0:38:03 > 0:38:05- No.- What?

0:38:05 > 0:38:06Oh, my God.

0:38:10 > 0:38:13You cannot take it.

0:38:13 > 0:38:15That's a signed Namatjira.

0:38:15 > 0:38:18- It looks authentic.- Frank's a private man, it's not our business.

0:38:18 > 0:38:20Let me at least photograph it.

0:38:20 > 0:38:22His work, too. I have contacts.

0:38:22 > 0:38:23Every artist wants exposure.

0:38:23 > 0:38:26Well, you can ask him that when he gets out of hospital.

0:38:26 > 0:38:27Who is he that he would have that?

0:38:27 > 0:38:31He's a returned soldier with diabetes and, until he's discharged,

0:38:31 > 0:38:33not to be pestered.

0:38:33 > 0:38:34Agreed?

0:38:35 > 0:38:37That's the same tone you used with Stan O'Rourke.

0:38:37 > 0:38:39It made him snap to.

0:38:40 > 0:38:41Well?

0:38:42 > 0:38:43Agreed.

0:38:47 > 0:38:49Did you like the dawn service?

0:38:50 > 0:38:51Pretty good.

0:38:52 > 0:38:54Till I started feeling a bit wonky.

0:38:59 > 0:39:02You didn't have to stand apart like that.

0:39:03 > 0:39:05You're welcome.

0:39:05 > 0:39:06By some, maybe.

0:39:08 > 0:39:10Same as here.

0:39:10 > 0:39:12Just the way it is.

0:39:15 > 0:39:18- You've been turned away?- Not every RSO puts out a welcome mat.

0:39:21 > 0:39:24A bullet can't tell the colour of your skin.

0:39:24 > 0:39:25We took the same risks.

0:39:26 > 0:39:27You tell it to some, Doc.

0:39:29 > 0:39:30Jack.

0:39:31 > 0:39:34I think I'll stick with Doc, if it's all the same to you.

0:39:37 > 0:39:38Doc it is, then.

0:39:52 > 0:39:53How'd Mrs Grace go?

0:39:55 > 0:39:57Another hour, it would have been peritonitis.

0:39:59 > 0:40:00How is he?

0:40:02 > 0:40:04I'm keeping him in overnight to be sure.

0:40:04 > 0:40:06No need to go in.

0:40:06 > 0:40:09My attitude may have contributed to his leaving.

0:40:10 > 0:40:12He doesn't need your guilt.

0:40:15 > 0:40:17We have to find a way to work together.

0:40:18 > 0:40:20We do.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23But...it's not going to be by me compromising my standards.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27And if you have to write to James so much, post them yourself.

0:40:27 > 0:40:29It's getting obvious.

0:41:08 > 0:41:10Hello. It's me.

0:41:10 > 0:41:12Regarding Tender Vines.

0:41:12 > 0:41:13Perhaps I've been wrong.

0:41:13 > 0:41:15Let's talk about publication.

0:41:19 > 0:41:20It is utter folly.

0:41:20 > 0:41:22You'd be playing right into her hands.

0:41:22 > 0:41:26- Watch your ticker. - Oh, don't you talk to me about my medical condition.

0:41:26 > 0:41:29- You could do with this. - Thank you, Douglas.

0:41:29 > 0:41:31Sure you don't want something stronger?

0:41:31 > 0:41:34What I want is for George to show sense.

0:41:34 > 0:41:37Of course you'd like to marry sooner, George, but at what cost?

0:41:37 > 0:41:40The current arrangement seems to be working quite well.

0:41:40 > 0:41:42There is an election coming up, remember.

0:41:42 > 0:41:45I'd be guaranteed pre-selection if this was resolved.

0:41:45 > 0:41:49There is nothing that is worth giving her the chance to walk free.

0:41:49 > 0:41:52The verdict was not guilty by reason of insanity.

0:41:52 > 0:41:54That is why she is locked up.

0:41:54 > 0:41:56What Liz is worried about

0:41:56 > 0:41:59is that this could help her prove her sanity.

0:41:59 > 0:42:02- What if she really is recovered? - Oh, not again, surely.

0:42:02 > 0:42:04How many times can you be duped?

0:42:04 > 0:42:05Steady on, Lizzie.

0:42:07 > 0:42:08If you agree to this...

0:42:11 > 0:42:14..you will rue the day. I'm telling you, we all will.

0:42:24 > 0:42:26You think it's the right way to go?

0:42:26 > 0:42:28George sounded convinced.

0:42:28 > 0:42:31- At least we could move on from this limbo.- It's done till now.

0:42:31 > 0:42:34It allowed David to grow up near his father, but George in the house

0:42:34 > 0:42:37and us in the cottage is hardly without its frustrations.

0:42:37 > 0:42:39Elizabeth has a point.

0:42:39 > 0:42:41Delivered in her best matriarch manner, apparently.

0:42:41 > 0:42:43Poor George.

0:42:43 > 0:42:44At least you're smiling.

0:42:46 > 0:42:49I can't see her being released simply because of this.

0:42:54 > 0:42:58I hope Carolyn didn't leave you in the lurch, dashing off like that.

0:42:58 > 0:43:01No, her family needs her.

0:43:01 > 0:43:03Yeah, her all-purpose excuse.

0:43:04 > 0:43:05I think she just gets bored.

0:43:07 > 0:43:09Everything OK?

0:43:12 > 0:43:14We've been scrapping a lot lately.

0:43:18 > 0:43:21- Excuse me, Doctor. - I'll leave you to it.

0:43:23 > 0:43:25Leah did not go to work.

0:43:25 > 0:43:27I look at home. Clothes are missing.

0:43:27 > 0:43:29Bag. She's run away.

0:43:58 > 0:44:01"If we only lived in a world where Olivia's family could accept your

0:44:01 > 0:44:03"loving a man who is now her dear friend.

0:44:07 > 0:44:10"The role is forced on us by a ridiculous world that makes our love

0:44:10 > 0:44:13"shameful and illegal.

0:44:13 > 0:44:14"I feel lesser for your absence.

0:44:14 > 0:44:16"Take as long as you need.

0:44:16 > 0:44:18"All my love to Olivia. You're both missed.

0:44:18 > 0:44:19"Henry."

0:44:24 > 0:44:28I can post that for you, Mr Fox.

0:44:28 > 0:44:30Thank you, Doris, but I need the air.

0:44:52 > 0:44:54I've experienced prejudice myself.

0:44:56 > 0:44:59So if I displayed any, it was unwitting.

0:44:59 > 0:45:00And I apologise.

0:45:01 > 0:45:03You?

0:45:04 > 0:45:06In my own way, yes.

0:45:08 > 0:45:10Well, that must have been tough.

0:45:10 > 0:45:13Real tough.

0:45:13 > 0:45:15HE CHUCKLES

0:45:20 > 0:45:21What's that about?

0:45:22 > 0:45:25Just the laugh I needed, Doc.

0:45:25 > 0:45:28Jack, what the hell. You got me in a good mood!

0:45:31 > 0:45:33The police are keeping an eye out.

0:45:33 > 0:45:35They'll talk to Larry. I should have said something, I'm so sorry.

0:45:35 > 0:45:38She is Jewish. She cannot deny that.

0:45:39 > 0:45:42- What if they can't find her? - We'll drive around ourselves.

0:45:42 > 0:45:44And if we can't find her in time?

0:45:44 > 0:45:47- This lad is such a... - She says it's all innocent.

0:45:47 > 0:45:48For how long?

0:45:50 > 0:45:51How could I leave?

0:45:53 > 0:45:55If we find her, you'll take her with you, of course.

0:45:55 > 0:45:58If not, trust me, I will convince her to join you.

0:46:00 > 0:46:02Next year in Jerusalem.

0:46:03 > 0:46:04I might even bring her myself.

0:46:06 > 0:46:07And David?

0:46:09 > 0:46:11It's his heritage as well as hers.

0:46:13 > 0:46:14Come.

0:46:42 > 0:46:45RAISED ANGRY VOICES

0:46:50 > 0:46:51You lied to me.

0:47:32 > 0:47:35- What if someone comes? - No-one comes here.

0:47:38 > 0:47:40I'm scared.

0:47:40 > 0:47:42It's all her stuff.

0:47:43 > 0:47:46Who'd have thought loony Regina would ever do us a favour?

0:47:48 > 0:47:50It still gives me the creeps.

0:47:50 > 0:47:52Even if she is locked up.

0:47:52 > 0:47:53Well, I'll stay.

0:47:54 > 0:47:56As long as you like.

0:48:00 > 0:48:01Go on, sit down.

0:48:01 > 0:48:04Right, you... You just stay there, all right?

0:48:08 > 0:48:09Just you wait.

0:48:12 > 0:48:18# I will spend my whole life through loving you, loving you

0:48:18 > 0:48:24# Winter, summer, springtime too, loving you, loving you

0:48:24 > 0:48:30# Makes no difference where I go or what I do

0:48:30 > 0:48:38# You know that I'll always be loving you. #

0:48:42 > 0:48:45- I'll have Poppy prepare the guest room.- No, there's no need.

0:48:45 > 0:48:47I'm heading straight back.

0:48:47 > 0:48:50I had to drop something off to a photographer.

0:48:50 > 0:48:53- I'm glad you made time for us. - Douglas!

0:48:54 > 0:48:55Welcome.

0:48:55 > 0:48:57HE COUGHS

0:48:57 > 0:49:00So what's of such photographic importance?

0:49:00 > 0:49:03I need some blow-ups for a meeting next week.

0:49:03 > 0:49:06I think I have made a huge discovery.

0:49:06 > 0:49:07Well, first things first.

0:49:07 > 0:49:11- This business with Regina. - I'm staying well out.

0:49:11 > 0:49:14Well, none of us can afford to sit on the fence, Carolyn.

0:49:14 > 0:49:16Someone has to talk sense into George.

0:49:16 > 0:49:18I will if it's necessary.

0:49:18 > 0:49:20I'm incredibly excited.

0:49:20 > 0:49:23I may have stumbled across an original...

0:49:23 > 0:49:26- Oh...- Darling?

0:49:26 > 0:49:28Douglas?

0:49:28 > 0:49:29Water.

0:49:37 > 0:49:38Darling, try to stay calm.

0:49:38 > 0:49:40Just...

0:49:40 > 0:49:42Just breathe. Just breathe.

0:49:42 > 0:49:43- Carolyn!- Coming.

0:49:44 > 0:49:46Here, drink this.

0:49:49 > 0:49:51Oh, God.

0:49:51 > 0:49:52An ambulance. Quickly!

0:49:55 > 0:49:57It's all right, it's all right.

0:50:00 > 0:50:01Just breathe.

0:50:19 > 0:50:20My niece's novel.

0:50:21 > 0:50:23It was a great success.

0:50:24 > 0:50:27I couldn't bring myself to read it until now.

0:50:27 > 0:50:28And why is that?

0:50:29 > 0:50:31I felt rage.

0:50:31 > 0:50:33Today...

0:50:34 > 0:50:35None.

0:50:38 > 0:50:39Well?

0:50:39 > 0:50:41Nothing as yet.

0:50:41 > 0:50:43Try not to dwell on it.

0:50:43 > 0:50:45- Patience.- Its own reward.

0:50:51 > 0:50:53Patience.

0:50:58 > 0:51:01The doctors are trained not to be duped.

0:51:01 > 0:51:03She's a mistress of duplicity.

0:51:03 > 0:51:07Well, I'd rather be ruled by optimism than fear.

0:51:07 > 0:51:09Fear can be a wise friend.

0:51:10 > 0:51:14We've been resigned to this artificial arrangement for far too long.

0:51:16 > 0:51:19I want us to stand proud as husband and wife.

0:51:21 > 0:51:22As parents.

0:51:29 > 0:51:30Sarah?

0:51:33 > 0:51:36Isaac, Leah missing.

0:51:39 > 0:51:42It's made me realise there's something we have to face.

0:51:45 > 0:51:47It may mean there is no wedding.
