0:00:29 > 0:00:33There we are. Well done, Norma.

0:00:33 > 0:00:35That's that bit done.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37Oh, look at him, Norma!

0:00:37 > 0:00:40When can Jim see him?

0:00:40 > 0:00:43When I go down the Pig And Gate and fetch 'im.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46He'll not set foot over this threshold until we're done.

0:00:46 > 0:00:49- In't that right, Nurse?- Absolutely!

0:00:49 > 0:00:52And then we'll be sending that rotten old

0:00:52 > 0:00:56afterbirth down the allotment with your granddad, won't we?

0:00:56 > 0:00:58Just the ticket for his runner beans.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00'The arrival of new life eclipses everything.'

0:01:00 > 0:01:02Won't we? Yeah!

0:01:02 > 0:01:06'When all goes well, the room is filled with happiness

0:01:06 > 0:01:09'and all the pain that went before is forgotten.

0:01:09 > 0:01:12'Where there was mystery, there is knowledge.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15'Where there was fear, there is love.'

0:01:15 > 0:01:17Just need to have another quick look at you, Norma.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21That's bad...

0:01:21 > 0:01:24It's not ideal, Mrs Tunnidge. But we will manage this.

0:01:24 > 0:01:27Norma! Stay with me, Norma.

0:01:27 > 0:01:30Mrs Tunnidge, put Baby in his cot and keep him well wrapped up.

0:01:30 > 0:01:33Could you pass me the kidney dish with the syringe, please?

0:01:33 > 0:01:35I'm going to give you an injection to help stop the bleeding,

0:01:35 > 0:01:37and then I'm going to massage your tummy to see

0:01:37 > 0:01:40if we can bring on another contraction.

0:01:40 > 0:01:41What's happening?

0:01:41 > 0:01:43Part of the placenta hasn't quite come away,

0:01:43 > 0:01:46so we need to give it some help.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49Could you ring a doctor, and then an ambulance,

0:01:49 > 0:01:52then we need some hot water bottles, to keep her warm till they arrive?

0:01:52 > 0:01:54Stay with me, Norma.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56There's something coming away.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59Good girl. That's it!

0:02:03 > 0:02:05Is it over?

0:02:05 > 0:02:06I hope so.

0:02:11 > 0:02:13Thanks, Nurse.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17It's all right.

0:02:31 > 0:02:34Oh, Nurse, you've got something on your face.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11I can't believe what Mater's done.

0:03:11 > 0:03:15She's only gone and bally discharged herself.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18She told the ward sister she was checking into a private hotel,

0:03:18 > 0:03:23and any mail should be forwarded on to a place called Pinehurst Lodge.

0:03:23 > 0:03:26So it's business as usual, really.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29Excuse me, I must change for work. I've a long night ahead.

0:03:36 > 0:03:37Hello, dear.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45You've a choice for your pudding tonight.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48I tried my hand at an apple charlotte.

0:03:48 > 0:03:52Or there's cling peaches and evap, if you want something lighter.

0:03:52 > 0:03:53It's up to you.

0:03:56 > 0:03:58I wish it was up to me.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01Because if it was, I'd say apple charlotte.

0:04:01 > 0:04:05Mum's been in the kitchen making it since you had your lunch.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07We'll have that, then.

0:04:08 > 0:04:09Apple charlotte it is.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17You've done wonderfully well since arriving at the parish.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19The men's group meet at my place once a week.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22Numbers have grown, and we're going to have to meet elsewhere.

0:04:22 > 0:04:25Men's group? Whatever happens in a men's group?

0:04:26 > 0:04:31Well, we discuss things that are of interest to men.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33This time, we're talking about pregnancy and birth.

0:04:33 > 0:04:36Oh, I-I-I think that might perturb them.

0:04:36 > 0:04:38Well, if it does, it shouldn't, surely?

0:04:38 > 0:04:40Fear often comes from ignorance.

0:04:40 > 0:04:43Mr Hereward, I couldn't agree more!

0:04:43 > 0:04:46I was actually hoping I might get some of you on my side.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49Dr Turner's offered to talk us through the nuts and bolts,

0:04:49 > 0:04:51but if one or two of the midwives came along too,

0:04:51 > 0:04:53- that would be even better. - And why is that?

0:04:53 > 0:04:56Well, I thought that they could put over the female point of view.

0:04:56 > 0:05:00So much goes on behind closed doors when a baby's born.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02I'll tell you what goes on behind closed doors, Mr Hereward.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05A lot of hard work, that's what!

0:05:05 > 0:05:09No point in men discussing it. It's a time for women to help women,

0:05:09 > 0:05:10and that is that.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13I think most men would be a much better support to their wives

0:05:13 > 0:05:16if they at least had some inkling of what was going on.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20I'd be happy to come along, Mr Hereward.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23Thank you, Nurse Franklin. Nurse Miller?

0:05:23 > 0:05:25Ooh, I'd absolutely love to, but I'm on call.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27What about you, Patsy?

0:05:27 > 0:05:28Well, I've no objection.

0:05:28 > 0:05:32As long as I'm back in time for Two-Way Family Favourites.

0:05:32 > 0:05:36Talks at the parish men's group are the thin end of the wedge.

0:05:36 > 0:05:41If you hear a single remark about men attending births,

0:05:41 > 0:05:42you are to report straight to me.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Yes, Sister.

0:05:44 > 0:05:45The thing is, Nurse Mount,

0:05:45 > 0:05:49there's only so many people can fit in a delivery room.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52And there is something special

0:05:52 > 0:05:55about a woman being supported by her mother. The mother-daughter bond

0:05:55 > 0:05:57is a very precious thing.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59SHE SOBS

0:06:11 > 0:06:16I deem compline a place of succour for a soul in disarray.

0:06:22 > 0:06:26Though I must not press you to join us, should you not desire it.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30I rather suspect I do desire it.

0:06:32 > 0:06:36I'm afraid I can't even think of what to think just now.

0:06:36 > 0:06:38A conundrum that has ailed me much.

0:06:40 > 0:06:44But in chapel, we need not choose our thoughts.

0:06:44 > 0:06:50The words are aligned, like a rope for us to cling to.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01How long ago did your mother die?

0:07:05 > 0:07:07I think that is not of any consequence.

0:07:10 > 0:07:14Dates, after all, are only scratchings on a stone.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22# For thy loving kindness is comfortable

0:07:25 > 0:07:31# Turn thee unto me according to the multitude of thy mercies

0:07:33 > 0:07:39# And hide not thy face from thy servant, for I am in trouble

0:07:41 > 0:07:43# Haste thee, and hear me

0:07:45 > 0:07:50# Thou hast known my reproof, my shame, and my dishonour. #

0:08:07 > 0:08:12Morning, love. Cup of tea, and into bed with this.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15Once you've had some kip, you're going to visit your mother.

0:08:15 > 0:08:17Has she been in touch?

0:08:17 > 0:08:18No. But I tracked her down.

0:08:18 > 0:08:21It was Pinewood Villa, not Pinehurst Lodge.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24It's a private nursing home, and her fees are being paid

0:08:24 > 0:08:27by a charity called the League For Distressed Gentlewomen.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30Charity? She doesn't need charity, Peter.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32What sort of place is it?

0:08:32 > 0:08:34I draw your attention to the cup of tea,

0:08:34 > 0:08:36hot water bottle and kip routine.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38Then you can go and find out.

0:08:48 > 0:08:49KNOCKING

0:08:49 > 0:08:52Begging your pardon, Sister, but it's Sister Monica.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55I will not be brought before the superior for a reprimand.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58I am in the novitian, I am not in formation.

0:08:58 > 0:09:00Oh, no...

0:09:00 > 0:09:03She's really bad, Sister. I found her halfway up the Commercial Road.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06- Sister. Come inside, and warm yourself.- I don't know you.

0:09:12 > 0:09:16Nor do I know what you are about in Sister Ada's office.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Oh, my dear. This is not Sister Ada's office.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21- Sister Ada is no longer with us. - Now, then...

0:09:21 > 0:09:23Don't you "now, then" me.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26Thou art a peasant and a man,

0:09:26 > 0:09:31and as such no quarter should be given to you within these walls.

0:09:31 > 0:09:32Should I go?

0:09:32 > 0:09:34No. No...

0:09:36 > 0:09:41Another man came once. I deemed him a doctor, though he did not say.

0:09:42 > 0:09:46He asked me questions that I refused to answer, lest I betray myself.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51SHE GIGGLES

0:09:52 > 0:09:54My mother calls me stupid.

0:09:57 > 0:09:59Stupid...

0:10:02 > 0:10:04..and too tall.

0:10:07 > 0:10:09Fred. You'll find the keys to the safe

0:10:09 > 0:10:11in the top left-hand drawer of the chest.

0:10:11 > 0:10:13You'll find a package in there,

0:10:13 > 0:10:16marked "Property of Miss Antonia Keville".

0:10:20 > 0:10:23- I know that name. - Of course you do.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38I have seen these before.

0:10:41 > 0:10:43They were your mother's.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46And when she died - a long, long time ago -

0:10:46 > 0:10:49she left them for you as a gift.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56These were her pearls.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05They are so cold.

0:11:12 > 0:11:13I know it's your favourite robe.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15The repair wasn't tricky.

0:11:15 > 0:11:17Did you use silk thread?

0:11:17 > 0:11:20No, rayon. I thought it would be more durable.

0:11:24 > 0:11:26Now, don't fall off the bed with excitement,

0:11:26 > 0:11:29but I brought you a smidgeon of savoury mince.

0:11:29 > 0:11:34It's only what we had last night, but as I said to Peter,

0:11:34 > 0:11:37"There's no harm in popping some into a Tupperware!"

0:11:37 > 0:11:39What's Tupperware?

0:11:40 > 0:11:41It keeps food fresh.

0:11:43 > 0:11:45I wasn't sure what the cuisine would be like.

0:11:45 > 0:11:48- It can be quite variable... - Well, it isn't variable here.

0:11:48 > 0:11:53There's a baronet's widow across the landing.

0:11:53 > 0:11:55It's in everyone's interests to keep up standards.

0:11:58 > 0:12:03I'm still sure you'd be better looked after in a hospital -

0:12:03 > 0:12:04where there's pain relief.

0:12:11 > 0:12:13I brought you a photograph of Freddie.

0:12:15 > 0:12:17And one of Peter and I, on our wedding day.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20I thought they might look nice on your bedside table.

0:12:20 > 0:12:22I can't put that on display.

0:12:24 > 0:12:30- Why not?- You're not in white. And he's wearing a lounge suit.

0:12:34 > 0:12:35One last thing.

0:12:35 > 0:12:37Peter sent you satsumas.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40But if they don't meet with your approval,

0:12:40 > 0:12:43then you can pass them on to the baronet's widow.

0:12:51 > 0:12:54Sister Julienne says that if you eat a good lunch,

0:12:54 > 0:12:58she's happy for us to take care of you, and won't send for Doctor.

0:13:06 > 0:13:08He could serve no purpose now.

0:13:10 > 0:13:14I have been reminded that...

0:13:14 > 0:13:16my mother is no more.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25Her jewellery is very beautiful.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31Our connection was never affectionate...

0:13:34 > 0:13:38..and my call to the religious life corrupted it completely.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46Ladies and gentlemen. Thank you.

0:13:46 > 0:13:49Mrs Minter, we're about to begin. I think, perhaps,

0:13:49 > 0:13:52if you could put your cigarette out until we break for tea.

0:13:56 > 0:14:00As you will have gathered, we're going to be taking a close look

0:14:00 > 0:14:02at our favourite piece of Mozart tonight.

0:14:02 > 0:14:04I know it's far and away the strongest thing

0:14:04 > 0:14:08in our repertoire, and for that very reason, I've decided it will be

0:14:08 > 0:14:12our entry at the Truscott Choral Festival at St Dacorum's Church.

0:14:12 > 0:14:16But that's only a couple of weeks off!

0:14:16 > 0:14:18I know because my husband's a painter and decorator.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21He's been brought in to emulsion the chancel.

0:14:21 > 0:14:23From the very beginning, please, Timothy.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33Oh.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35Can we help you?

0:14:35 > 0:14:38Sorry, but this is the parish men's group.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40We're having the health education session here.

0:14:40 > 0:14:43- No, you are not! - But it's all been planned.

0:14:43 > 0:14:45I've everybody's name written down on a list.

0:14:45 > 0:14:46There's clearly been an error.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49The choir has an exclusive weekly booking,

0:14:49 > 0:14:53and we aren't due to finish until nine. Again, please, Timothy.

0:15:02 > 0:15:06# Ave...Ave... #

0:15:06 > 0:15:07CHATTERING

0:15:09 > 0:15:12That would make things go with a swing.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14The nuns will be in compline.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17Oh, do hurry up. We're falling behind schedule!

0:15:17 > 0:15:21Ring the doorbell! Nobody bites!

0:15:21 > 0:15:24I bite... if people don't wipe their feet.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28I'm going to read out all the names on the list

0:15:28 > 0:15:31the reverend gave me, and I want you all to call out "present" so

0:15:31 > 0:15:34I can tick you off. Colin Warneck?

0:15:34 > 0:15:35Present.

0:15:35 > 0:15:36- Walter Mills?- Present.

0:15:36 > 0:15:40- Vernon Parker.- Present.

0:15:40 > 0:15:41James Peachely?

0:15:43 > 0:15:46James Peachely, and Tony Muirhead?

0:15:46 > 0:15:49I think we may have lost them to the Hand And Shears!

0:15:49 > 0:15:50LAUGHTER

0:15:50 > 0:15:53I'm sorry. I don't believe you're on my list.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55Should I be on a list?

0:15:55 > 0:15:56It's a requirement.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59Worth. Philip Worth.

0:16:00 > 0:16:03Thank you, that all seems to be in order.

0:16:03 > 0:16:08Right, now, as you can see, I have gone right back to square one.

0:16:08 > 0:16:13This circle represents the ova, or the female egg,

0:16:13 > 0:16:17and this little chap here

0:16:17 > 0:16:21is the male gamete, or the sperm.

0:16:21 > 0:16:24Sorry, Dr T, I think we've got a question.

0:16:24 > 0:16:26Where do I go to get the milk of magnesia?

0:16:26 > 0:16:28What's the matter? Aren't you well?

0:16:28 > 0:16:30My cousin telephoned earlier.

0:16:30 > 0:16:33She's expecting, and she's in agony with heartburn.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36The midwife said she could be given an antacid, so I came to fetch it.

0:16:36 > 0:16:38I just walked in with everybody else.

0:16:42 > 0:16:43Follow me.

0:16:51 > 0:16:53Ah, it's a good job you've come back here, actually -

0:16:53 > 0:16:55it's going to be a busy night.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57I've just been called to Mrs Boyle on Flitch Street.

0:16:57 > 0:16:58Oh, hello.

0:16:58 > 0:17:00Evening.

0:17:00 > 0:17:03I just had to rescue this poor chap from a terrifying ordeal.

0:17:03 > 0:17:07Trial by the parish men's group. And Patsy.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09Well, looks like he's lived to tell the tale.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11There's no harm done.

0:17:11 > 0:17:16One bottle of milk of magnesia. Nurse Lee will see you out.

0:17:16 > 0:17:18Heartburn can be a rotten business.

0:17:18 > 0:17:21Mind you, I've heard it means the baby's going to have a lot of hair.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23I've heard that said where we come from.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25Jeanette reckons it's an old wives' tale.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28- Whereabouts in Scotland are you from?- Edinburgh.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30I've just joined a barrister's chambers at Lincoln's Inn.

0:17:32 > 0:17:33Thank you.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36Follow me.

0:17:38 > 0:17:39There's a nip in the air today.

0:17:39 > 0:17:43Are you sure you don't want me to go to the cleaner's for your overcoat?

0:17:43 > 0:17:48- I'm sure that...- No. er, I'll take a scarf. It's only a mild frost.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52Would you get the post?

0:17:58 > 0:18:01I'm just trying to show you that I care.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04"Dr and Mrs P Turner."

0:18:09 > 0:18:11Tim, go and wait in the car.

0:18:24 > 0:18:28"After due consideration, we are pleased to inform you that

0:18:28 > 0:18:31"you have been accepted as adoptive parents..."

0:18:32 > 0:18:33"We have every confidence that

0:18:33 > 0:18:37"in due course you will be able to offer an otherwise unwanted child

0:18:37 > 0:18:39"a very happy home."

0:18:41 > 0:18:43They seem very confident of that.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47What?

0:18:47 > 0:18:49The notion that we have a happy home.

0:18:51 > 0:18:54At the moment, I'm not sure that we do.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10This really is a beautiful room, Mrs Heckford.

0:19:10 > 0:19:15Oh, thank you. I like to put my stamp on a place.

0:19:16 > 0:19:19My husband and I have had to move round a lot, because of his work.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22- And what does your husband do? - He's a marine engineer.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27He's just been posted to Gibraltar for three weeks.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29Does that mean you'll be alone when the baby comes?

0:19:29 > 0:19:32Well, I've got my cousin in residence.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35I daresay we can train him to run errands and boil water.

0:19:36 > 0:19:39- Any port in a storm. - There won't be a storm.

0:19:39 > 0:19:41You have a lovely home,

0:19:41 > 0:19:46and it feels to me as though Baby's in the perfect position.

0:19:46 > 0:19:48- Nicely lined up for delivery. - Is the head engaged?

0:19:48 > 0:19:51It is. Have you been reading books?

0:19:51 > 0:19:53I've always been a reader.

0:19:53 > 0:19:56And a painter, too, by the looks of it.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59Oh. That's my wee cousin's.

0:19:59 > 0:20:01He's currently inspired by the music of Mussorgsky.

0:20:01 > 0:20:03I love Mussorgsky!

0:20:03 > 0:20:07I went to a concert of his music at the Festival Hall last year.

0:20:07 > 0:20:09I just wish he'd been inspired by something

0:20:09 > 0:20:11a little more comprehensible.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14I like it.

0:20:14 > 0:20:16Excellent.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19I will pass on the compliment.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26ANGUISHED SCREAMS

0:20:32 > 0:20:36Lady Browne, if you can try and drink this - please, try...

0:20:36 > 0:20:37- I can't rest.- What's happening?

0:20:37 > 0:20:40I beg your pardon. Are you a relative?

0:20:40 > 0:20:42My wife's her daughter. I'm...

0:20:42 > 0:20:46I'm visiting on her behalf. Is the doctor on his way?

0:20:46 > 0:20:48He isn't expected until this evening.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50We aren't equipped to cope with cases like this.

0:20:50 > 0:20:52- Lady Browne needs to be in hospital. - Help me! Help.

0:20:52 > 0:20:55Hospital's the one place where she doesn't want to be.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58Help me! Help. Help me.

0:21:02 > 0:21:06- I'm sorry, your ladyship. - Where are we going?- Home.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21What-oh, Mater!

0:21:21 > 0:21:22Lady Browne...?

0:21:25 > 0:21:26Lady Browne.

0:21:26 > 0:21:30She's been sick... in the wastepaper bin.

0:21:30 > 0:21:31Well, better out than in.

0:21:31 > 0:21:34I'll take it and give it a swill with some Dettol.

0:22:01 > 0:22:03I want her visited three times a day

0:22:03 > 0:22:05until a bed at the London comes free.

0:22:05 > 0:22:07If she can't get up the stairs,

0:22:07 > 0:22:10she will have to be nursed on the sofa in the meantime.

0:22:10 > 0:22:11Yes, Doctor.

0:22:11 > 0:22:14I will prescribe morphine in liquid form, for her to take

0:22:14 > 0:22:15when necessary.

0:22:15 > 0:22:18I do know when I'm being discussed.

0:22:18 > 0:22:20Mater. Doctor's only trying to help.

0:22:20 > 0:22:22She's right, Nurse.

0:22:24 > 0:22:28Lady Browne, is there anything you'd like to ask me?

0:22:31 > 0:22:33Have a sip of water, Lady Browne.

0:22:33 > 0:22:36You don't have to swallow, just wet your lips.

0:22:45 > 0:22:47How long have I got?

0:22:49 > 0:22:50Weeks.

0:22:52 > 0:22:54- Many?- No.

0:22:56 > 0:22:58Days?

0:22:58 > 0:23:00It's impossible to say.

0:23:02 > 0:23:09I thought what was impossible to say was the name of the disease.

0:23:10 > 0:23:14People say "inflammation of the liver".

0:23:14 > 0:23:18Some people just call it "the big C".

0:23:20 > 0:23:22Never its name.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24No.

0:23:24 > 0:23:25Why?

0:23:28 > 0:23:33Because it is the thing that we fear the most.

0:23:33 > 0:23:40Fear is the sentiment I don't hold with. Ask her.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45So.

0:23:45 > 0:23:46Cancer.

0:23:48 > 0:23:50The beast is named.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56It's unlikely we'll ever tame it.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01We can get it cornered... for a while.

0:24:06 > 0:24:09Chummy? Will you help me to organise some sheets?

0:24:11 > 0:24:12Roger, over and out.

0:24:22 > 0:24:26I can remember you sewing a baby's nightdress in that chair.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28Yes. It wasn't to be.

0:24:30 > 0:24:31What did you do with it?

0:24:31 > 0:24:33I gave it to Sister Julienne.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35Someone else's baby will have it now.

0:24:41 > 0:24:45I-I should have told you about my breakdown.

0:24:49 > 0:24:52We started out in silence.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56Not able to speak.

0:24:58 > 0:25:01And after I dared to write to you,

0:25:01 > 0:25:04I thought, "Have I said too much?

0:25:04 > 0:25:05"Or not enough?"

0:25:08 > 0:25:13If I didn't speak of other things, that was my weakness,

0:25:13 > 0:25:17and my fault and I can only beg you to forgive me.

0:25:17 > 0:25:20I won't forgive you, Patrick.

0:25:21 > 0:25:23Because you did nothing wrong.

0:25:23 > 0:25:25I didn't speak when I should've done.

0:25:25 > 0:25:29I didn't let you when I should've done.

0:25:32 > 0:25:33But we're speaking now.

0:25:35 > 0:25:37Let that be the thing that matters.

0:25:45 > 0:25:49Sister Monica Joan, would you like me to find your knitting bag?

0:25:50 > 0:25:52Or I could help you wind some wool, perhaps.

0:25:56 > 0:26:00I find myself entirely disinclined to knit.

0:26:02 > 0:26:04There are enough tangles already in my mind.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07That's not true.

0:26:07 > 0:26:08They are warm now.

0:26:10 > 0:26:15And I fancy I detect my mother's scent upon them.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24Sweet violet...

0:26:26 > 0:26:31..mingled with Wright's Coal Tar - the latter from my hand.

0:26:36 > 0:26:39Oh, I wish we had made our peace sooner.

0:27:11 > 0:27:13Your husband brought him down.

0:27:13 > 0:27:15He's in the kitchen making a cup of tea.

0:27:17 > 0:27:19My husband does have a name, Mater.

0:27:21 > 0:27:25We're quite content with formal terms. We have an arrangement.

0:27:27 > 0:27:30And furthermore, I have come to a decision.

0:27:32 > 0:27:34Sister, I want to talk to you about Lady Browne.

0:27:34 > 0:27:38A doctor called Cicely Saunders has been exploring new ways

0:27:38 > 0:27:41of caring for people who are terminally ill.

0:27:41 > 0:27:44She's based at St Joseph's Hospital in Hackney, isn't she?

0:27:44 > 0:27:46It's a hospice, Sister.

0:27:47 > 0:27:50She advocates a different kind of nursing.

0:27:50 > 0:27:51It's not like a hospital at all.

0:27:51 > 0:27:55The patient's family are as important as the patient.

0:27:55 > 0:27:57Do you think we should approach St Joseph's,

0:27:57 > 0:27:59and see if there's a bed for Lady Browne?

0:27:59 > 0:28:02I tried, but the beds are full. At least for now.

0:28:02 > 0:28:04It's such a shame!

0:28:04 > 0:28:08We should aim to give everyone the chance of a good death.

0:28:10 > 0:28:15Sister Julienne, would you agree to let me care for Lady Browne

0:28:15 > 0:28:17until she passes away?

0:28:17 > 0:28:21I'd like to implement some of the principles of hospice care.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23You're a midwife, Nurse Lee.

0:28:23 > 0:28:27You were trained to bring life into the world, not to help it to depart.

0:28:27 > 0:28:30But surely they're both equally important?

0:28:30 > 0:28:34I've lost count of the number of babies I've delivered, Sister,

0:28:34 > 0:28:36and this would be something new for me.

0:28:38 > 0:28:40It's something I feel very inspired by.

0:28:40 > 0:28:42I can see that.

0:28:42 > 0:28:45But if I were to take you away from midwifery -

0:28:45 > 0:28:47possibly for weeks -

0:28:47 > 0:28:50the mothers and babies of the district would suffer.

0:28:50 > 0:28:53But Lady Browne is suffering. And Chummy is suffering.

0:28:53 > 0:28:56As it happens, Nurse Noakes just telephoned to say that

0:28:56 > 0:29:00Lady Browne has chosen to stay at home with her until the end comes.

0:29:02 > 0:29:07We will support them, and they will support one another. Now,

0:29:07 > 0:29:10we have been asked to take on some pupil midwives from the London

0:29:10 > 0:29:14for a day or two, whilst their clinic is reorganised.

0:29:14 > 0:29:17I am putting you in charge of the arrangements.

0:29:18 > 0:29:22MUSIC: "Hushabye" by The Mystics

0:29:29 > 0:29:33# Hushabye, hushabye

0:29:33 > 0:29:36# Oh, my darling, don't you cry

0:29:36 > 0:29:39# Guardian angels up above

0:29:39 > 0:29:43# Take care of the one I love

0:29:43 > 0:29:46# Oh-h-h-h-h

0:29:46 > 0:29:49# Hush, hush, hushabye

0:29:49 > 0:29:52# Oh-h-h-h-h

0:29:52 > 0:29:55# Hush, hush, hushabye

0:29:55 > 0:29:59# Hushabye, hushabye

0:29:59 > 0:30:03# Oh, my darling, don't you cry

0:30:03 > 0:30:06# Guardian angels up above

0:30:06 > 0:30:09# Take care of the one I love

0:30:09 > 0:30:13# Oh-h-h-h-h

0:30:13 > 0:30:16# Hush, hush, hushabye

0:30:16 > 0:30:19# Oh-h-h-h-h

0:30:19 > 0:30:23# Hush, hush, hushabye

0:30:23 > 0:30:25# Pillows lying on your bed

0:30:25 > 0:30:29# Oh, my darling, rest your head

0:30:29 > 0:30:32# Sandman will be coming soon

0:30:32 > 0:30:35# Singing you a slumber tune... #

0:30:41 > 0:30:43Cynthia, there's a whole cake in this tin.

0:30:43 > 0:30:47I haven't seen that the entire time I've been at Nonnatus.

0:30:47 > 0:30:51Sister Monica Joan's at Chummy's all the time, looking after Lady Browne.

0:30:53 > 0:30:55We've got extra Horlicks to go with it, too.

0:30:55 > 0:30:59When I went upstairs, all the pupil midwives were asleep.

0:30:59 > 0:31:00Set 'em up, Joe!

0:31:07 > 0:31:09One commode. All ship-shape and Bristol fashion.

0:31:11 > 0:31:13Right.

0:31:13 > 0:31:15I think it will serve well over there.

0:31:19 > 0:31:21Perfect!

0:31:23 > 0:31:25Would you like me to find you a change of clothes?

0:31:25 > 0:31:28You might feel more on top of things in a pair of slacks.

0:31:28 > 0:31:30I think not! I'm a nurse, old bean.

0:31:32 > 0:31:33This is my armour.

0:31:50 > 0:31:54The Plaza Suite is open for business!

0:31:54 > 0:31:57You take your time, Lady Browne. There's no rush.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02Once I'm up...

0:32:03 > 0:32:06..I'm up, I suppose.

0:32:06 > 0:32:08You'll have no reason to come down.

0:32:08 > 0:32:10We've got it all laid on for you up there.

0:32:12 > 0:32:15Come on. Stairway To The Stars time.

0:32:19 > 0:32:23The choir are absolutely note perfect on Ave Verum Corpus.

0:32:23 > 0:32:26The perfect choice for the competition.

0:32:26 > 0:32:28They could sing it standing on their heads.

0:32:28 > 0:32:30Might make it a bit more interesting.

0:32:30 > 0:32:34This one is just addressed to you, but it looks official.

0:32:34 > 0:32:35Is it about the baby?

0:32:43 > 0:32:46No. It's from the festival.

0:32:46 > 0:32:49The East Ham Singers are doing Ave Verum Corpus.

0:32:49 > 0:32:52No two choirs can sing the same piece, and they entered first,

0:32:52 > 0:32:54so we have to find another song.

0:32:54 > 0:32:56Great(!)

0:32:56 > 0:32:58By Saturday!

0:33:00 > 0:33:04That's a lovely, steady heartbeat. And Baby's head's well down.

0:33:04 > 0:33:07But I can't see any signs that labour's under way just yet,

0:33:07 > 0:33:10especially now those twinges have petered out.

0:33:10 > 0:33:13I know it sounds silly, but I was kind of in the mood for it!

0:33:13 > 0:33:15KNOCKING

0:33:15 > 0:33:16Thank you.

0:33:16 > 0:33:19Hello, Mr Heckford! You're back from Gibraltar!

0:33:19 > 0:33:22Ha-ha! Bless you, Nurse. This is my cousin, Philip.

0:33:22 > 0:33:24Would you like a coffee?

0:33:24 > 0:33:25BOTH: Yes, please.

0:33:25 > 0:33:29Last time Nurse Lee was here, she was admiring your painting.

0:33:29 > 0:33:31Really?

0:33:31 > 0:33:33Yes. I was.

0:33:38 > 0:33:41And I win. Again.

0:33:45 > 0:33:47This is a much better game than bridge.

0:33:47 > 0:33:49What did you say it was called?

0:33:51 > 0:33:53Strip Jack Naked, your ladyship.

0:33:53 > 0:33:59You know, I shouldn't object if you called me by my Christian name.

0:34:01 > 0:34:02Artemis?

0:34:04 > 0:34:12Ghastly, isn't it? Sir Rex used to call me Arthur, sometimes.

0:34:14 > 0:34:17I think it was on account of my large feet.

0:34:18 > 0:34:20I passed them on to Camilla.

0:34:22 > 0:34:24Had you ever noticed?

0:34:24 > 0:34:26I love Camilla's feet.

0:34:28 > 0:34:30Good.

0:34:31 > 0:34:35I will not be defeated by this. The choir have worked too hard.

0:34:35 > 0:34:39If I find the right song, they can sing it simply.

0:34:39 > 0:34:42I won't need to rehearse them too hard. Puff, please.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46You can always have one of your own.

0:34:46 > 0:34:49No, because that would make me a smoker.

0:34:56 > 0:35:01# May the good Lord bless and keep you... #

0:35:01 > 0:35:03Ah! Jim Reeves. Perfect!

0:35:03 > 0:35:05You and Jim Reeves.

0:35:05 > 0:35:08# ..When you are far away

0:35:09 > 0:35:11# May you find that... #

0:35:11 > 0:35:15This might just be a very appropriate choice.

0:35:15 > 0:35:18# ..Day to day... #

0:35:20 > 0:35:25I feel like the princess in The Princess And The Pea...

0:35:29 > 0:35:34..floating up on layer upon layer of mattresses.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36It's probably the morphine.

0:35:36 > 0:35:37It's the pillows.

0:35:58 > 0:36:04I used to have a manicure once a week in Rajputan.

0:36:06 > 0:36:12We had Nivea cream sent over by diplomatic bag.

0:36:12 > 0:36:14SHE CHUCKLES

0:36:16 > 0:36:21I wouldn't mind a manicure today.

0:36:23 > 0:36:27You don't want to bother with all that fuss and nonsense.

0:36:34 > 0:36:37Did I ever read you The Princess And The Pea?

0:36:40 > 0:36:42I'm not sure you did.

0:36:46 > 0:36:51Perhaps I sent it to you at boarding school.

0:36:54 > 0:37:00The post in India was abominable.

0:37:00 > 0:37:08So much got lost...on the way.

0:37:15 > 0:37:16Mind the wet stairs now, Sister.

0:37:16 > 0:37:18Don't want you tripping over on them.

0:37:18 > 0:37:22Out of my way. I am in search of the most particular accoutrements.

0:37:24 > 0:37:30Oh, Nurse Franklin, such unseemly quantities of intimate apparel.

0:37:30 > 0:37:32Sister Monica Joan?

0:37:32 > 0:37:36Instead of skulking outside this chamber, I suggest you enter,

0:37:36 > 0:37:40and offer me your aid. Is this Nivea?

0:37:40 > 0:37:43I don't know but I reckon that's for putting on your face.

0:37:43 > 0:37:46I need Nivea. And nail paint.

0:37:49 > 0:37:51Is that what you're looking for?

0:37:52 > 0:37:56You are very slow to see what is before you.

0:37:56 > 0:37:59I think you should consult an oculist.

0:38:00 > 0:38:03I'm sorry to press-gang you when you must be so busy.

0:38:03 > 0:38:05But if we can't swell the numbers of the choir, I don't think

0:38:05 > 0:38:08the judges will even entertain such a simple piece of music.

0:38:08 > 0:38:10I think it's a terrific choice.

0:38:10 > 0:38:12There's no reason why it has to be a piece of classical music.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14Quite. But we need more voices.

0:38:14 > 0:38:18I want children, adults, the elderly, all involved,

0:38:18 > 0:38:21- and singing side by side. - I like the sound of that.

0:38:23 > 0:38:25Hello! Back again, like a bad penny.

0:38:25 > 0:38:29Not at all. Jeanette hoped it would be you.

0:38:29 > 0:38:31JEANETTE MOANS

0:38:33 > 0:38:35M blank...

0:38:35 > 0:38:41G, N, I, blank, blank, blank, E, blank, blank, second word,

0:38:41 > 0:38:45blank B, S, E, blank, S, blank, O, blank.

0:38:47 > 0:38:49Is it Magnificent Obsession?

0:38:51 > 0:38:54Excellent! Full marks.

0:38:54 > 0:38:58Philip! That was the last clue. Now what are we going to do?

0:39:02 > 0:39:05You could eat some of this toast I just made.

0:39:05 > 0:39:07Or maybe not.

0:39:12 > 0:39:15I can't. I simply can't.

0:39:17 > 0:39:21It's just too frivolous when there is so much else to do.

0:39:21 > 0:39:26But there's almost nothing else to do. And little time.

0:39:33 > 0:39:34I'm sorry, Sister...

0:39:36 > 0:39:38But I can't...

0:39:40 > 0:39:42I can't touch her.

0:39:44 > 0:39:48Unless it's a nursing matter, but even then...

0:39:51 > 0:39:52I'm sorry. But it's true.

0:39:55 > 0:39:58My mother and I did not have a tactile union.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03I did not regret it when she was alive.

0:40:03 > 0:40:05But now...

0:40:06 > 0:40:10I think of Keats and how he cried...

0:40:10 > 0:40:13Touch has a memory!

0:40:13 > 0:40:15O say, love, say

0:40:15 > 0:40:17What can I do to kill it

0:40:17 > 0:40:19And be free?

0:41:35 > 0:41:37You've never done that before.

0:41:40 > 0:41:42Oh, I have...

0:41:44 > 0:41:49When you were very, very tiny.

0:41:59 > 0:42:02SHE SIGHS

0:42:05 > 0:42:07I've been going at it all night, Nurse.

0:42:08 > 0:42:11This baby is never going to come.

0:42:11 > 0:42:13Jeanette.

0:42:13 > 0:42:18Your contractions are coming every five minutes, steadily and surely.

0:42:18 > 0:42:20Baby's coming steadily and surely, too.

0:42:21 > 0:42:24I don't want it to come steadily and surely.

0:42:24 > 0:42:26- I want it now.- Sssh.

0:42:28 > 0:42:29Or soon.

0:42:32 > 0:42:37Let's set our hopes on "soon". "Soon" seems very reasonable to me.

0:43:23 > 0:43:26UNSTEADY BREATHING

0:43:28 > 0:43:29The tide is turning.

0:43:31 > 0:43:37Time to lay aside your uniform. Today, you are her child.

0:43:37 > 0:43:42I'm still a nurse. I know what that sound means.

0:43:44 > 0:43:47LABOURED BREATHING

0:43:51 > 0:43:53SHE MOANS AND WHIMPERS

0:43:53 > 0:43:57That's it. Good, now stay calm, Jeanette.

0:43:57 > 0:44:00This is a good, strong contraction. It will help you,

0:44:00 > 0:44:03and it will help your baby make its way into the world.

0:44:08 > 0:44:11- I can't face another night of this. - Ssh. Come on.

0:44:11 > 0:44:16I can't. How long have I got?

0:44:16 > 0:44:18Sorry, it's impossible to say.

0:44:18 > 0:44:20SHE SOBS

0:44:23 > 0:44:25Tell me what to do.

0:44:27 > 0:44:30Telephone Nonnatus House, tell them I've had a lady with

0:44:30 > 0:44:34a very, very long first stage and we need gas and air.

0:44:38 > 0:44:40And a new midwife.

0:44:46 > 0:44:49LABOURED BREATHING

0:45:06 > 0:45:08JEANETTE MOANS

0:45:08 > 0:45:09They're here.

0:45:09 > 0:45:13Oh, look at you two. Poor little chicks.

0:45:13 > 0:45:14- Are you the father?- He's the cousin.

0:45:14 > 0:45:16Out.

0:45:16 > 0:45:19Right, case notes, and then get your mac on.

0:45:19 > 0:45:20I'm not a betting woman,

0:45:20 > 0:45:23but I'll wager five bob you just need a bit of blood sugar.

0:45:23 > 0:45:26I don't suppose you could force down a Creamline toffee?

0:45:26 > 0:45:29No enema, I see. And you wonder why things have stalled.

0:45:29 > 0:45:32I told Nurse Lee I didn't want one...

0:45:32 > 0:45:35Don't worry. You might just find we've packed the wrong kit.

0:45:35 > 0:45:38Off you pop. Get a bit of shuteye.

0:45:40 > 0:45:43Will you let me walk you back to the convent?

0:45:43 > 0:45:46I know my way. I'd know it blindfolded.

0:45:46 > 0:45:48Nurse Lee, are you upset?

0:45:50 > 0:45:52Um...

0:45:55 > 0:46:00I've delivered so many babies and I've never once not managed.

0:46:00 > 0:46:05Never once failed to do what I was trained for.

0:46:05 > 0:46:08If it was just tiredness, I'd know tomorrow would be better but...

0:46:08 > 0:46:10Please. Let me walk you back.

0:46:13 > 0:46:18Thank you but there's somewhere I need to go first.

0:46:37 > 0:46:39CHUMMY GASPS

0:46:48 > 0:46:51LABOURED BREATHING

0:46:52 > 0:46:54Put this on.

0:46:56 > 0:46:58It's Mater's.

0:48:48 > 0:48:50I love you.

0:48:55 > 0:48:57SHE SOBS

0:48:57 > 0:49:01- MATURE JENNY:- 'The departure of life eclipses everything.

0:49:02 > 0:49:07'When a death is good, the room is filled with peace,

0:49:07 > 0:49:12'and all the pain that went before it is forgotten.

0:49:12 > 0:49:15'Where there was mystery, there is knowledge,

0:49:15 > 0:49:18'where there was fear, there is love.'

0:49:23 > 0:49:25May I have everybody's attention.

0:49:25 > 0:49:29As you know, Timothy has had to go back for his sheet music,

0:49:29 > 0:49:32which he forgot. As soon as he arrives,

0:49:32 > 0:49:36we will be catching the bus to St Dacorum's church.

0:49:36 > 0:49:39The fare will be sixpence each way but if anyone

0:49:39 > 0:49:43is in difficulties, will they please talk to me or Mr Hereward.

0:49:44 > 0:49:49At last! I wondered what had kept you.

0:49:49 > 0:49:52It was the adoption agency. There was a phone call.

0:49:57 > 0:49:58- Thank you, Doctor.- You're welcome.

0:50:01 > 0:50:04Patrick. The adoption agency have a baby girl.

0:50:04 > 0:50:06They need us to go straight there.

0:50:06 > 0:50:08Well, how much have they told you?

0:50:08 > 0:50:11Hardly anything! Just that the mother is only 16.

0:50:11 > 0:50:14She was meant to be taking the baby home with her,

0:50:14 > 0:50:17but at the last minute her parents have changed their minds.

0:50:17 > 0:50:20- That's terrible.- Tim.- That's why they want a speedy settlement.

0:50:20 > 0:50:23To spare further trauma for those involved.

0:50:28 > 0:50:30Mrs Turner shows great faith in us.

0:50:30 > 0:50:32I can't even get them in a straight line! Oi, stop that.

0:50:32 > 0:50:34This is a community choir,

0:50:34 > 0:50:36not a conga line at the Hammersmith Palais!

0:50:36 > 0:50:38And if you don't keep up,

0:50:38 > 0:50:41my next weapon will be the heel of my stiletto!

0:50:41 > 0:50:43- Charming(!)- Go on!

0:50:45 > 0:50:48Baby Jones is at the far end of the room, on the right.

0:50:48 > 0:50:53There's a little felt sunflower attached to her cot.

0:50:53 > 0:50:56Perhaps Master Turner would like to wait in the office with me?

0:51:05 > 0:51:07Do you want to go in alone?

0:51:07 > 0:51:09No, Patrick.

0:51:09 > 0:51:13This is the closest I'm ever going to get to giving birth.

0:51:13 > 0:51:15And I want, and I need, you to be by my side.

0:51:52 > 0:51:53What's she like?

0:51:55 > 0:51:57Close your eyes.

0:52:09 > 0:52:12BABY GRIZZLES

0:52:21 > 0:52:22Here's your mummy.

0:52:34 > 0:52:36We have a daughter.

0:52:44 > 0:52:49# May the good Lord bless and keep you

0:52:49 > 0:52:54# Whether near or far away

0:52:54 > 0:52:59# May you find that long awaited

0:52:59 > 0:53:04# Golden day today

0:53:04 > 0:53:10# May your troubles all be small ones

0:53:10 > 0:53:15# And your fortunes ten times ten

0:53:15 > 0:53:20# May the good Lord bless and keep you

0:53:20 > 0:53:25# Till we meet again

0:53:26 > 0:53:30# May you walk with sunlight shining

0:53:30 > 0:53:36# And a bluebird in every tree

0:53:36 > 0:53:41# May there be a silver lining

0:53:41 > 0:53:46# Back on every cloud you see

0:53:46 > 0:53:52# Fill your dreams with sweet tomorrows

0:53:52 > 0:53:57# Never mind what might have been

0:53:57 > 0:54:03# May the good Lord bless and keep you

0:54:03 > 0:54:08# Till we meet again

0:54:08 > 0:54:14# May the good Lord bless and keep you

0:54:14 > 0:54:17# Till we meet

0:54:17 > 0:54:25# Till we meet again. #

0:54:26 > 0:54:28- ALL: Goodbye!- Congratulations!

0:54:28 > 0:54:29Good night.

0:54:29 > 0:54:33Shall I give the winner's trophy to Mrs Turner, or would you like to?

0:54:33 > 0:54:34I don't think she'll even notice.

0:54:34 > 0:54:37She's been given the prize of a lifetime today.

0:54:37 > 0:54:39The baby?

0:54:39 > 0:54:41It's just such a magical thought.

0:54:41 > 0:54:46These souls that have never met being put together for a lifetime.

0:54:47 > 0:54:50That's quite a deep thought for a Saturday evening.

0:54:50 > 0:54:54Well, it might surprise you to hear this, but I'm quite a deep girl.

0:54:56 > 0:54:57I know.

0:55:10 > 0:55:12Why are we so low on chloral hydrate?

0:55:12 > 0:55:16It's a sedative, not a pre-labour cocktail snack.

0:55:16 > 0:55:18It should be administered sparingly!

0:55:18 > 0:55:20Sisters. And ladies...

0:55:21 > 0:55:24..Nurse Lee has some news for us.

0:55:28 > 0:55:29I've handed my notice in.

0:55:31 > 0:55:33Oh, I say!

0:55:34 > 0:55:37I'm moving away to take up a position as a Staff Nurse

0:55:37 > 0:55:40at the Marie Curie Hospital.

0:55:40 > 0:55:42I want to work with the dying.

0:55:42 > 0:55:45And a cancer hospital seems as good a place as any.

0:55:46 > 0:55:48Are you absolutely sure, Jenny?

0:55:48 > 0:55:50Yes.

0:55:52 > 0:55:54It's what I feel called to do.

0:56:00 > 0:56:02Right, Philip Worth, good luck.

0:56:03 > 0:56:05I...

0:56:07 > 0:56:08You look lovely.

0:56:10 > 0:56:12Go on.

0:56:16 > 0:56:19# I look at you... #

0:56:19 > 0:56:22Thank you. Lovely.

0:56:22 > 0:56:25# ..And I say to myself

0:56:25 > 0:56:28# What more could I want... #

0:56:28 > 0:56:31- Come in.- Thank you.

0:56:31 > 0:56:34# ..if I had you? #

0:56:34 > 0:56:40- MATURE JENNY:- 'I was leaving midwifery behind but Nonnatus House

0:56:40 > 0:56:45'was where my family lived and I would love it forever.

0:56:51 > 0:56:56# ..My head in a cloud... #

0:56:56 > 0:57:04- The nightdress. You kept it? - For you. For better times to come.

0:57:04 > 0:57:08# ..I look at you and I say to myself

0:57:08 > 0:57:12# What more could I want...? #

0:57:12 > 0:57:16- MATURE JENNY:- 'I would marry Philip Worth, though I did not know

0:57:16 > 0:57:19'it then, and we would have two daughters of our own.

0:57:19 > 0:57:22'The young can't see what lies ahead

0:57:22 > 0:57:26'and perhaps that is their blessing and their sorrow.'

0:57:30 > 0:57:35# ..I stand and I stare, my head in a cloud... #

0:57:35 > 0:57:36BICYCLE BELL RINGS

0:57:36 > 0:57:39THEY LAUGH

0:57:41 > 0:57:46# ..I look at you

0:57:46 > 0:57:50# And I say to my heart

0:57:52 > 0:57:59# What chance would I have while at...? #

0:57:59 > 0:58:04'I never lost touch with the convent or the friends I found there.

0:58:04 > 0:58:10'Their story continued, as did my desire to tell the wider world.

0:58:12 > 0:58:16'For what is joy if it goes unrecorded?

0:58:16 > 0:58:20'And what is love if it is not shared?'

0:58:20 > 0:58:23- Stay safe. Goodbye. ALL:- Goodbye.
