0:00:29 > 0:00:33MATURE JENNY: Flight takes many forms.

0:00:33 > 0:00:37It can be an unfurling of feathers, a soaring upward into light,

0:00:37 > 0:00:39or a departure.

0:00:39 > 0:00:42Or running away - a retreat from pain

0:00:42 > 0:00:45towards a distant joy we cannot see for clouds.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Flight can be

0:00:53 > 0:00:56such a very lonely enterprise.

0:00:57 > 0:01:01- ALL:- # In light inaccessible

0:01:01 > 0:01:04# Hid from our eyes

0:01:04 > 0:01:09# Most blessed, most glorious

0:01:09 > 0:01:11# The ancient of days

0:01:11 > 0:01:15# Almighty, victorious

0:01:15 > 0:01:19# Thy great name we praise. #

0:01:24 > 0:01:26Taxi to London Airport?

0:01:28 > 0:01:29Oh, Christopher!

0:01:35 > 0:01:38I would have been perfectly content walking to the Commercial Road

0:01:38 > 0:01:40and flagging down a black cab.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42In those shoes? And with this amount of luggage?

0:01:44 > 0:01:47My godmother made it very clear that if I turn up at her house

0:01:47 > 0:01:51in Portofino with anything less than four changes of clothes per day,

0:01:51 > 0:01:54plus matching accessories, I'd be letting the side down.

0:01:55 > 0:01:57And I'm going there for months.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01How many months?

0:02:02 > 0:02:04I don't know.

0:02:09 > 0:02:12I haven't packed any winter clothes.

0:02:12 > 0:02:17The wardrobe's still bulging with tweed and fur and gloves.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21I've even left behind my favourite beaded cashmere sweater.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26I've no intention of still being on the Italian Riviera

0:02:26 > 0:02:28by the time it's cold enough for that.

0:02:29 > 0:02:32Trixie, the moment you feel ready to come home, you're to send me

0:02:32 > 0:02:35your flight details by telegram, and...

0:02:35 > 0:02:36..I'll be waiting to collect you.

0:02:36 > 0:02:39Even if I have to borrow Nurse Crane's snow chains

0:02:39 > 0:02:41and push the car all the way here.

0:02:43 > 0:02:44As a friend?

0:02:46 > 0:02:49Yes. Absolutely as a friend.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54Not so fast, young Beatrix Franklin!

0:02:54 > 0:02:57You're not doing us out of the chance to say goodbye!

0:02:57 > 0:02:59And in honour of the occasion, I am saying nothing about

0:02:59 > 0:03:02the pile of laundry you've chucked in the corner of our bedroom!

0:03:02 > 0:03:04THEY CHUCKLE

0:03:04 > 0:03:05Take care.

0:03:06 > 0:03:08- Take care of yourself.- Thank you.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11- Be safe.- Bye, Val.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15I'll send you a postcard.

0:03:15 > 0:03:16Yeah, you better.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18- ENGINE STARTS - Drive safely.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40Oh, don't do that, Michael.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43When's your next appointment?

0:03:43 > 0:03:45- What day is it?- Tuesday.

0:03:45 > 0:03:47It'll be today, then.

0:03:47 > 0:03:50- Shouldn't they have told you where you're going to have it by now?- Why?

0:03:50 > 0:03:52There's plenty of time.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54Let's hope. You haven't even looked for a pram yet.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56All right. Will you stop going on?

0:03:56 > 0:03:59Well, there's no harm in asking. Hospital or home?

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Let me know what they say.

0:04:01 > 0:04:02Be good for your mum.

0:04:08 > 0:04:10DOOR CLOSES

0:04:16 > 0:04:22Oh, a letter personally addressed to you, Sister Monica Joan.

0:04:22 > 0:04:23What news is this?

0:04:29 > 0:04:32Is that the appointment for your cataract surgery, Sister?

0:04:38 > 0:04:42"And immediately there fell from his eyes

0:04:42 > 0:04:43"as it had been scales.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48"And he received sight forthwith."

0:04:54 > 0:04:59And remember - with Nurse Franklin's patients spread amongst us,

0:04:59 > 0:05:02it's economic with time but thorough with care.

0:05:02 > 0:05:06We've been one woman down before and we made it through.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09- Nil desperandum.- Come on, then.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23He's in there! I can hear him.

0:05:23 > 0:05:27That's him! Go in after him.

0:05:27 > 0:05:28No, don't touch him!

0:05:28 > 0:05:30- Get out!- Get him out!

0:05:30 > 0:05:31Got him.

0:05:32 > 0:05:34Get out. Out!

0:05:35 > 0:05:37- CREW MEMBERS SHOUT - No, please.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42Get out!

0:05:42 > 0:05:45- No, please!- Get him off my ship!

0:05:45 > 0:05:47No! Please!

0:05:51 > 0:05:52Off and out to port.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54- Get off!- Get off!

0:05:59 > 0:06:02I'm looking for my wife - Eunice Dobson.

0:06:02 > 0:06:04Dobson?

0:06:05 > 0:06:06She said she had an appointment.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11Your wife's name is on our books, but, from our records,

0:06:11 > 0:06:14it doesn't seem that she comes to clinic.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17Unless she's under the care of St Cuthbert's, Mr Dobson?

0:06:17 > 0:06:19She says she's been coming here for weeks.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21It's her second and she's not far off.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23I see.

0:06:23 > 0:06:26Maybe with all this sun, she decided to stay home.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28I'm sure there's some explanation.

0:06:28 > 0:06:31Explanation or none, I'll add her to tomorrow's lists.

0:06:32 > 0:06:36Though what time we'll get to you, I'm not quite certain.

0:06:36 > 0:06:38Then allow me, Nurse Crane. I'm up that way.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40I can add her to my morning rounds.

0:06:40 > 0:06:42Oh. Thank you, Nurse Anderson.

0:06:58 > 0:07:02I'm looking for the Seamen's Mission. C-Can you help me?

0:07:02 > 0:07:03I can't help you.

0:07:06 > 0:07:07I-I'm looking for the Seamen's Mission.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09Sorry, son. Get on your way.

0:07:09 > 0:07:14Excuse me, I-I'm looking for the Seamen's Mission. Can you help me?

0:07:14 > 0:07:15Nah, I don't know it.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17Excuse me, sir, can you help me?

0:07:17 > 0:07:19I'm looking for the Seamen's Mission.

0:07:22 > 0:07:24E-Excuse me. I need help.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27Can you help me? I'm looking for the Seamen's Mission.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56Over there.

0:07:59 > 0:08:00What do you want?

0:08:18 > 0:08:20How was the clinic? What did they say to you this time?

0:08:20 > 0:08:24The usual - baby's all right, nothing to worry about.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28No, they didn't, Eun.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30Cos I went and you weren't there.

0:08:32 > 0:08:34You haven't been going, have you?

0:08:34 > 0:08:36I just don't see the point.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38What - not a single appointment?

0:08:39 > 0:08:42With Michael, you were there every week by this stage.

0:08:42 > 0:08:44Well, it's not like how it was before, is it?

0:08:48 > 0:08:50How do you mean?

0:08:51 > 0:08:55I was having a baby, Kenny. I was happy.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58Because then I had no idea what was facing me, did I?

0:08:59 > 0:09:01Now I do.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13Our Father, who art in heaven,

0:09:13 > 0:09:15hallowed be thy name;

0:09:15 > 0:09:17Thy kingdom come;

0:09:17 > 0:09:19Thy will be done; on earth as it is in heaven.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24Give us this day our daily bread.

0:09:24 > 0:09:26And forgive us our trespasses,

0:09:26 > 0:09:29as we forgive those who trespass...

0:09:29 > 0:09:31Hey! What's up with you?

0:09:32 > 0:09:34Please...leave me.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50Eunice Dobson?

0:09:50 > 0:09:51I'm Nurse Anderson, a midwife.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55Is there any particular reason

0:09:55 > 0:09:58why you haven't been to clinic, Mrs Dobson?

0:09:58 > 0:10:00No point. This one kicks - it's obviously growing.

0:10:02 > 0:10:06Now I'm here, we just need to make sure everything is normal.

0:10:06 > 0:10:10Especially if you haven't had any checks at all.

0:10:10 > 0:10:11Nurse, there's nothing wrong.

0:10:11 > 0:10:15I'm sure. But if I can take your blood pressure now...

0:10:15 > 0:10:18- No. Don't touch me!- Eunice, what is the matter with you?!

0:10:18 > 0:10:20Look, I'm fine.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22And if you think I'm going anywhere near a hospital this time,

0:10:22 > 0:10:24you can forget it.

0:10:24 > 0:10:28I suggest your wife gets some rest and I will call back later.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31We can talk further then and make plans for the birth.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33Look, can you just go now, please?

0:10:42 > 0:10:45Thank you, Mrs Buckle.

0:10:45 > 0:10:46What's all that?

0:10:46 > 0:10:49Five minutes of filing, according to Councillor Woodburn.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51Not to mention the fact that he wants me to find

0:10:51 > 0:10:54the papers for the picnic fund somewhere in this lot an' all.

0:10:54 > 0:10:58- The what?- Old Alderman Matchett set up a charitable concern

0:10:58 > 0:11:00to raise money for the Poplar picnic.

0:11:00 > 0:11:03But he's been dead so long, and now it seems they've got to

0:11:03 > 0:11:04spend the money by the end of the month,

0:11:04 > 0:11:07so if I don't find the papers, then there's no money,

0:11:07 > 0:11:09and then there's no chance of a picnic.

0:11:09 > 0:11:11Well, you best get cracking, then!

0:11:11 > 0:11:14I remember the picnic being the highlight of the year

0:11:14 > 0:11:16during my fair-haired youth!

0:11:17 > 0:11:19Well, it was for all of us.

0:11:19 > 0:11:23Imagine the memories for Reggie - a day out in the countryside,

0:11:23 > 0:11:25some games, apple cider!

0:11:25 > 0:11:29Ooh, and I remember your little pigtails!

0:11:29 > 0:11:32THEY CHUCKLE

0:11:32 > 0:11:33Ugh!

0:11:35 > 0:11:39Eunice Dobson's last labour resulted in an assisted delivery -

0:11:39 > 0:11:41Simpson's forceps.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44That would have been very distressing.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47Yes. What happened when you went to see her?

0:11:47 > 0:11:51She refused to be examined and became quite upset.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54Were you not able to give her any reassurance?

0:11:54 > 0:11:56She asked me to leave and I thought it might be best

0:11:56 > 0:11:57if I did as she asked.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01It's not going to be easy to gain her trust.

0:12:01 > 0:12:05I'm going to go back later today and start afresh.

0:12:05 > 0:12:06God loves a trier!

0:12:07 > 0:12:10Spend as long as you can with her.

0:12:10 > 0:12:14Time isn't always a healer. But it can open doors.

0:12:14 > 0:12:15I hope so.

0:12:16 > 0:12:20Most kind, Councillor Woodburn. Enjoy the rest of your evening.

0:12:25 > 0:12:28Well, the good news is that I've been through every document

0:12:28 > 0:12:31and there's nine and six in the picnic account.

0:12:32 > 0:12:34So, why the long face?

0:12:34 > 0:12:38Apparently because yours truly did such a good job organising

0:12:38 > 0:12:40the beauty contest, Councillor Woodburn feels that

0:12:40 > 0:12:44if Poplar wants a picnic, it's up to me to organise it.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52I got the train over from Frinton at lunchtime.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56It's a good job our Kenny called me,

0:12:56 > 0:12:58cos she needs some sense talking into her.

0:13:03 > 0:13:04SHE CLEARS HER THROAT

0:13:06 > 0:13:08- What is it this time? - Sorry to disturb you.

0:13:09 > 0:13:12But it is important that we take your history

0:13:12 > 0:13:13and get these checks done for Baby.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17Perhaps if you and I can start again?

0:13:26 > 0:13:30A cup of tea and a few liquorice torpedoes, anyone?

0:13:30 > 0:13:32Liquorice torpedoes?

0:13:32 > 0:13:34A thank-you present from Mrs Hagger at the sweet shop.

0:13:34 > 0:13:36She gave me some violet creams as well,

0:13:36 > 0:13:38but I've put them in the fridge in case they melt.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41Tea, Lucille?

0:13:41 > 0:13:43Tea?

0:13:43 > 0:13:46There's nothing more refreshing in this kind of humidity!

0:13:46 > 0:13:49At home, we used to drink black coffee with a dash of salt in it.

0:13:49 > 0:13:53Did that not have a deleterious impact on the flavour?

0:13:54 > 0:13:57Possibly. But it cools you down!

0:13:59 > 0:14:02I wish I had a fan - a proper, fold-out one,

0:14:02 > 0:14:04like my Auntie Priss had.

0:14:05 > 0:14:08I'm not working up much of a breeze with my Myles Midwifery.

0:14:08 > 0:14:11What is it you're worrying your head about?

0:14:12 > 0:14:13Eunice Dobson.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18I've never met a woman so adamant that she can't,

0:14:18 > 0:14:19and won't, give birth.

0:14:19 > 0:14:23If I had a penny for every woman who's shouted, "I can't do this!"

0:14:23 > 0:14:25when she gets to the sharp end, I'd have...

0:14:25 > 0:14:30ooh, er, 29 bob and 11 pence by now!

0:14:30 > 0:14:36It is very common during labour. But unusual beforehand, I grant you.

0:14:36 > 0:14:41And she is so vehement and so distressed.

0:14:41 > 0:14:42It really worries me.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45It sounds like she needs a good sit down with Nurse Reassurance.

0:14:48 > 0:14:52You listen to what she has to say. See if the notion of a home birth,

0:14:52 > 0:14:56in familiar surroundings, will help calm her nerves.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07No, no. Please. No, please!

0:15:07 > 0:15:11Come on! Who do you think you are - the invisible man?

0:15:15 > 0:15:16Pox!

0:15:16 > 0:15:18Pox! Pox!

0:15:40 > 0:15:42Sorry to interrupt, ladies.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45Please don't apologise. I'm sure it's an emergency.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48Until further notice, we have to assume so.

0:15:48 > 0:15:51Apparently a Nigerian national - a sailor -

0:15:51 > 0:15:53was run out of the Seamen's Mission last night.

0:15:54 > 0:15:58It seems he may have been suffering from smallpox.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Oh, no!

0:16:00 > 0:16:04I thought we'd put all that to bed after last year's carry on!

0:16:04 > 0:16:06Witnesses said his face was badly marked.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11Have you notified the Officer for Health?

0:16:11 > 0:16:14Yes. And the police are on the lookout for him.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17His name is Ade Babayaro.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19- SHE SIGHS - There'll be rumours flying around

0:16:19 > 0:16:21before the bobbies even get their boots on.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24What shall we tell our patients if they ask?

0:16:24 > 0:16:27Or if they start demanding vaccinations?

0:16:27 > 0:16:30People think there's a vaccination for everything these days.

0:16:30 > 0:16:31Well, there is one for smallpox.

0:16:31 > 0:16:34But we can't launch it until this man is found

0:16:34 > 0:16:37and his illness is confirmed.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39All anyone can do in the meantime is be vigilant.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41For sightings of the sailor?

0:16:41 > 0:16:44Or signs of the disease in others.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47We don't know where he's been or where he may go next.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32Welcome home, Reggie.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34- Hello, Mum!- Oh!

0:17:34 > 0:17:36Oh, you look so skinny - there's nothing of you!

0:17:36 > 0:17:38Still smell nice, though.

0:17:38 > 0:17:39So do you!

0:17:39 > 0:17:42Right, young fella, what's it to be - toast or crumpets?

0:17:42 > 0:17:44Oh, it's already sorted. That's all sorted.

0:17:44 > 0:17:47I've done you some bacon butties - they're in a tray in the oven.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50Just a quick breakfast, please, and then straight out.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52Cos I need you two on publicity duty.

0:17:54 > 0:17:58For this picnic, it's all hands on deck. See you later...

0:17:58 > 0:17:59Alligator!

0:18:16 > 0:18:17Eunice?

0:18:19 > 0:18:22Look, love. I've finished it.

0:18:33 > 0:18:37Eunice...tell me how you really feel.

0:18:37 > 0:18:39EUNICE SOBS QUIETLY

0:18:42 > 0:18:45THEY CHATTER

0:18:45 > 0:18:49If I may have your attention, please.

0:18:49 > 0:18:52When are we being vaccinated? That's all I want to know.

0:18:52 > 0:18:54It's not as simple as vaccinations, Mrs Lawrence.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56Why not?

0:18:56 > 0:18:57He's had the polio sugar cube.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00Why can't he have the smallpox one?

0:19:00 > 0:19:02People died in Bradford last year.

0:19:02 > 0:19:05Because until the Board of Health have confirmed the case...

0:19:05 > 0:19:06What's to confirm?

0:19:06 > 0:19:09There's smallpox in Sweden - I read it in the paper.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12Ain't that where that sailor came from?

0:19:12 > 0:19:14To put your minds at rest,

0:19:14 > 0:19:17smallpox does not spread that easily by itself.

0:19:17 > 0:19:22You would need to be very close to the sailor to catch it yourselves.

0:19:22 > 0:19:25Now, unless you're here with a genuine condition,

0:19:25 > 0:19:26I suggest you go home.

0:19:54 > 0:19:57Dear Jesus...please help me.

0:20:05 > 0:20:07I tried keeping it to myself.

0:20:10 > 0:20:16Let me guess - the bigger Baby gets, the more fear there is?

0:20:16 > 0:20:17I didn't mean for it to happen.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23I wouldn't let Kenny touch me for two years...

0:20:24 > 0:20:26..and then we did and the whatsit split.

0:20:27 > 0:20:28The sheath?

0:20:29 > 0:20:31I even tried to get rid of it.

0:20:34 > 0:20:36One of them dentists near Limehouse.

0:20:39 > 0:20:40But I couldn't let him near.

0:20:42 > 0:20:45Not after what happened last time at that hospital.

0:20:45 > 0:20:46I just couldn't!

0:20:49 > 0:20:51What did happen last time, Eunice?

0:20:52 > 0:20:54If you tell me, I can try to help.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59The baby was stuck.

0:21:01 > 0:21:06The next thing, the doctor came in and my legs were strung up...

0:21:06 > 0:21:07He intervened?

0:21:08 > 0:21:12He...stuck them metal things inside me, Nurse,

0:21:12 > 0:21:15and I was screaming.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17SHE BREATHES HEAVILY All right, Eunice.

0:21:17 > 0:21:19But he just kept on pulling.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21He was ripping it out of me!

0:21:21 > 0:21:23I shouted for him to stop!

0:21:24 > 0:21:29Eunice. Eunice, now, Michael's out there - you need to calm down!

0:21:29 > 0:21:30Why wouldn't he stop?

0:21:34 > 0:21:36Maybe cos that's what happens, love.

0:21:36 > 0:21:39- This doesn't help! - SHE SOBS

0:21:39 > 0:21:40Pamela, please!

0:21:56 > 0:21:58I love it.

0:21:58 > 0:22:01But I can't have it!

0:22:01 > 0:22:02Now, listen to me.

0:22:04 > 0:22:08As sure as night turns to day, your baby is going to be born -

0:22:08 > 0:22:10right here, at home.

0:22:10 > 0:22:13And I will be there to support you the best I know how.

0:22:14 > 0:22:17Well, you're going to have to think of something, Nurse.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19Because I'm not having this baby.

0:22:28 > 0:22:31Don't tell me - the rest of the dockers

0:22:31 > 0:22:32have taken a vow of abstinence.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34No, love. But rumour has it

0:22:34 > 0:22:38that smallpox sailor slept rough by my bins last night!

0:22:38 > 0:22:41It's been like a ghost town in here since.

0:22:41 > 0:22:44Why? The dockers were vaccinated because of that outbreak last year.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46It's not them they're worrying about, is it?

0:22:46 > 0:22:47It's their wives and kids.

0:22:47 > 0:22:51And if he's not found soon, we'll find him ourselves.

0:22:51 > 0:22:52That won't be pretty.

0:22:56 > 0:22:59I can appreciate the concern, but the police are searching

0:22:59 > 0:23:02and all guidelines are being followed to the letter.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05I should bloody well hope so.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07Anyway, it's that box of tin plates you promised to Violet

0:23:07 > 0:23:09for the picnic that we've come for.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12Picnic? While I've got an empty pub to worry about?

0:23:12 > 0:23:13You can whistle.

0:23:20 > 0:23:22That sailor needs to be found.

0:23:24 > 0:23:28After all, the man is out there alone somewhere, sick,

0:23:28 > 0:23:31in pain and undoubtedly scared for his life.

0:23:33 > 0:23:37Chara leaves from Nonnatus. Vi's organising it.

0:23:37 > 0:23:38All welcome!

0:23:40 > 0:23:44The charabanc's on order, so all set for an early start to Epping Forest.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48So, what I need you to do is chivvy along

0:23:48 > 0:23:51all the shopkeepers in Poplar, cos we need donations.

0:23:51 > 0:23:53Then I want you to collect from your given area

0:23:53 > 0:23:57and bring everything here to Picnic HQ.

0:23:57 > 0:23:58While we're collecting,

0:23:58 > 0:24:01you'll be glad to know that Fred's going to be doing the posters

0:24:01 > 0:24:06and the trestle tables, benches, camping chairs and tents.

0:24:06 > 0:24:10Whoa, whoa, whoa. I thought this was meant to be teamwork.

0:24:10 > 0:24:12Well, it is. Someone's got to be in charge.

0:24:12 > 0:24:14Ain't they, Reggie?

0:24:16 > 0:24:18KNOCK AT DOOR

0:24:18 > 0:24:19You're still here, Dr Turner.

0:24:19 > 0:24:21For a good while yet.

0:24:21 > 0:24:24I was wondering if you had a moment for some advice.

0:24:24 > 0:24:28Why not? It's what everyone else is asking for today.

0:24:28 > 0:24:32Patients have taken up more time enquiring about rumours

0:24:32 > 0:24:35of the smallpox sailor than the symptoms they came in with.

0:24:36 > 0:24:39I'm sure you were able to reassure them, Dr Turner.

0:24:39 > 0:24:42I only wish I could reassure Eunice Dobson.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45She's suffering such anguish -

0:24:45 > 0:24:47so terrified of another forceps delivery

0:24:47 > 0:24:49that she doesn't want to give birth.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53I'm not sure what else I can do alone.

0:24:53 > 0:24:56Then why don't we both go to see her?

0:24:56 > 0:25:00How about tomorrow evening? I'll make an assessment.

0:25:00 > 0:25:05Thank you, Doctor. I dislike the notion of any patient being scared.

0:25:05 > 0:25:10Same here. Unfortunately, right now, many are just that.

0:25:32 > 0:25:34I'm taking this lot to the institute,

0:25:34 > 0:25:36so can you take this loaf straight home?

0:25:36 > 0:25:39- Cos Fred might need it for his tea. - Aye-aye, captain.

0:25:41 > 0:25:46Oh, Mr Palmer, thanks so much for the flasks. Most kind.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52COUGHING

0:25:59 > 0:26:01Hello?

0:26:24 > 0:26:27No, please...do not go near me.

0:26:28 > 0:26:29I am sick.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33Are you hungry?

0:26:33 > 0:26:35I am hungry...

0:26:35 > 0:26:37..but you must not come near me.

0:27:00 > 0:27:01Thank you.

0:27:03 > 0:27:04You are a good man.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08But, please, you should go from me now.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10If they find you with me, they'll chase you too.

0:27:11 > 0:27:13I get chased.

0:27:14 > 0:27:16I'm Reggie.

0:27:18 > 0:27:21My name is Ade, but I cannot shake your hand.

0:27:23 > 0:27:24I need help.

0:27:26 > 0:27:27But you must keep it a secret.

0:27:39 > 0:27:42I know a forceps delivery can be very traumatic.

0:27:44 > 0:27:47But the chances of needing assistance

0:27:47 > 0:27:49with a second baby are far less.

0:27:49 > 0:27:51Did you know that?

0:27:51 > 0:27:52I don't want to talk about it!

0:27:52 > 0:27:57I really believe that we can make things better for you this time.

0:27:57 > 0:27:58Do you?

0:27:58 > 0:28:00Cos I don't.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Eunice! Don't talk to the doctor like that!

0:28:07 > 0:28:10It's like there's this film in my head and it...

0:28:10 > 0:28:13..keeps playing and playing.

0:28:13 > 0:28:15Same thing, over and over.

0:28:15 > 0:28:18I'm trying to switch it off all day.

0:28:19 > 0:28:20All night!

0:28:20 > 0:28:22And it keeps coming back on again?

0:28:22 > 0:28:23Yes!

0:28:31 > 0:28:33What happens in the film, Eunice?

0:28:34 > 0:28:36I'm looking at the ceiling of the room.

0:28:38 > 0:28:42The lights are in my eyes. And I can't move.

0:28:42 > 0:28:45I can't move. I can't move.

0:28:46 > 0:28:49And they come at me and I hear the metal clanging!

0:28:49 > 0:28:52It's all right, Eunice. It's all right.

0:28:52 > 0:28:54We can help you.

0:28:54 > 0:28:56I've had the sort of help that people like you give me

0:28:56 > 0:28:57and I don't want it!

0:29:00 > 0:29:02There's got to be another way around this.

0:29:02 > 0:29:03There's a fella at work

0:29:03 > 0:29:06whose wife had something called a Caesar section.

0:29:06 > 0:29:10A Caesarean is only carried out when the mother's life is at stake.

0:29:11 > 0:29:14Eunice's problem isn't with her pregnancy, but her mind.

0:29:16 > 0:29:18- Eunice?- Go away!

0:29:19 > 0:29:21I'm sorry, Doctor.

0:29:21 > 0:29:24Her mother didn't bring her up to have things wrong with her mind,

0:29:24 > 0:29:27or to make a load of fuss about nothing!

0:29:28 > 0:29:29She'll just have to get on with it.

0:29:29 > 0:29:33Eunice can't just "get on with it",

0:29:33 > 0:29:35because, for her, this isn't about nothing.

0:29:37 > 0:29:40She is clearly suffering from a phobia -

0:29:40 > 0:29:42an overwhelming fear of childbirth.

0:29:44 > 0:29:47And she is going to need an enormous amount of support.

0:29:53 > 0:29:57Dundee cake for you, Ade.

0:30:04 > 0:30:06Thank you.

0:30:23 > 0:30:2532...

0:30:25 > 0:30:3133 packets of biscuits, 13 of which are chocolate.

0:30:31 > 0:30:34It's going to be like Billy Bunter's birthday party come this weekend!

0:30:34 > 0:30:37Good, cos there's nothing worse than a feeble spread.

0:30:39 > 0:30:42Where's the Dundee cake, Reggie?

0:30:42 > 0:30:44Secret.

0:30:44 > 0:30:46What do you mean, "secret"?

0:30:46 > 0:30:49It's a secret with my friend.

0:30:50 > 0:30:52What friend?

0:30:54 > 0:30:56Where've you been, Reggie?

0:30:57 > 0:30:58Who's taken your cake?

0:30:59 > 0:31:02And who's asking you to keep secrets?

0:31:03 > 0:31:06You won't be in any trouble, Reggie, we promise.

0:31:10 > 0:31:15- SHE SINGS ALONG TO RADIO - # I like it, I like it

0:31:15 > 0:31:20# I like the way you run your fingers through my hair

0:31:20 > 0:31:22# And I like the way... #

0:31:36 > 0:31:39- I know you've spoken to that man, Reggie.- Ade?

0:31:39 > 0:31:45Yes, Ade. And I know that you've given him presents.

0:31:45 > 0:31:48But when you handed him the food, did you touch him?

0:31:48 > 0:31:50Tell the doctor the truth, Reggie.

0:31:50 > 0:31:53Smallpox is spread by touching.

0:31:53 > 0:31:57He hasn't got a temperature and there's no sign of any rash,

0:31:57 > 0:31:58so we don't need to worry yet.

0:31:58 > 0:32:01Ah. I'm worried silly already, Doctor.

0:32:01 > 0:32:04Am I in trouble?

0:32:04 > 0:32:06You were being kind.

0:32:06 > 0:32:09No-one ever gets in trouble for being kind, Reggie.

0:32:10 > 0:32:14But if you could remember where he was when you found him,

0:32:14 > 0:32:17that would be really helpful for a lot of people.

0:32:21 > 0:32:24I will see Reggie again in two days,

0:32:24 > 0:32:27unless he develops symptoms in the meantime.

0:32:27 > 0:32:28Thank you, Doctor.

0:32:28 > 0:32:30Or if he gives you any more information.

0:32:35 > 0:32:38Oh, dear! Is someone feeling under the weather?

0:32:38 > 0:32:39Not yet!

0:32:39 > 0:32:43We think Reggie's been in contact with the smallpox case.

0:32:43 > 0:32:45Reggie! Really?

0:32:45 > 0:32:46Not saying.

0:32:48 > 0:32:51He'll be having his wings clipped until further notice.

0:32:51 > 0:32:54And he certainly won't be going out with a cake tin under his arm!

0:32:54 > 0:32:58You were wise to consult Doctor. But I'd counsel against panic.

0:32:58 > 0:33:00Well, you say that.

0:33:00 > 0:33:03But you weren't the one that set him up to be preyed on!

0:33:03 > 0:33:05Sh, sh, sh, it's all right.

0:33:11 > 0:33:13I knitted the same for Michael when he was born

0:33:13 > 0:33:15and that didn't end up in the bin!

0:33:15 > 0:33:17Mum! She's in no fit state!

0:33:17 > 0:33:19Well, she needs to buck up, then, doesn't she?

0:33:19 > 0:33:22She's known for nine months this was going to happen

0:33:22 > 0:33:24and now she's expecting some sort of miracle.

0:33:24 > 0:33:27There's only one way in and one way out.

0:33:27 > 0:33:29Please, can you just leave me alone?

0:33:32 > 0:33:34You heard what she said, Mum.

0:33:34 > 0:33:37I'll take you to the station first thing in the morning.

0:33:49 > 0:33:53I'm just dropping off the insulin for the evening rounds.

0:33:53 > 0:33:56You've picked a nice spot for your perusals, Lucille.

0:33:56 > 0:33:58Oh, it catches the sun in the evening -

0:33:58 > 0:34:00it reminds me of the porch back home.

0:34:01 > 0:34:02Right, I'll be two ticks!

0:34:04 > 0:34:07Oh, I'm sorry, Dr Turner. Have I detained you?

0:34:07 > 0:34:11Oh, no. I... I just need to get back to call the Board of Health.

0:34:12 > 0:34:15There still seems to be no sign of this smallpox patient.

0:34:30 > 0:34:34Please, God, do not forsake me.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40Do not let me die in this terrible place.

0:34:47 > 0:34:50HE SOBS

0:35:07 > 0:35:09Good morning, Reggie.

0:35:09 > 0:35:12Dr Turner asked me if I'd call in on my rounds.

0:35:12 > 0:35:15Would you like a cup of tea, Nurse Crane?

0:35:15 > 0:35:18There's one in the pot. I've been keeping Reggie's fluid levels up.

0:35:18 > 0:35:21I am sufficiently watered, thank you.

0:35:21 > 0:35:23- BELL RINGS - Oh! That'll be a customer.

0:35:29 > 0:35:31Right, lad.

0:35:32 > 0:35:34We're good pals, you and I.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36And if there's one thing neither of us like,

0:35:36 > 0:35:38it's a lot of fussing and fretting.

0:35:38 > 0:35:39That's two things.

0:35:39 > 0:35:41Well, yes.

0:35:43 > 0:35:46Meanwhile, the easiest way to get everyone to calm down

0:35:46 > 0:35:49is for you to tell us where we can find your friend.

0:35:51 > 0:35:53It's a secret.

0:35:53 > 0:35:55I understand.

0:35:55 > 0:35:59And I've kept secrets for friends because I want to help them.

0:35:59 > 0:36:04But sometimes, in order to really help someone,

0:36:04 > 0:36:07you have to break your promise and bring other people in.

0:36:10 > 0:36:13You can just whisper it. I'll do the rest.

0:36:16 > 0:36:19HE WHISPERS: Underground. Underground.

0:36:19 > 0:36:21Oh...thank you.

0:36:22 > 0:36:23Please help him.

0:37:03 > 0:37:04Mr Babayaro?

0:37:12 > 0:37:13Mr Babayaro?

0:37:32 > 0:37:35Forgive my intrusion, sir, but I've been led to suppose

0:37:35 > 0:37:37that you would benefit from medical assistance.

0:37:39 > 0:37:41Put more plainly, that you need help.

0:37:46 > 0:37:50I'm Nurse Crane. And I'm here on my own - don't worry.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58If you would let me look at you, we can work out what to do.

0:38:09 > 0:38:10No. Please, no.

0:38:11 > 0:38:12You will catch this.

0:38:14 > 0:38:15Not necessarily.

0:38:20 > 0:38:23Smallpox is a very bad illness.

0:38:28 > 0:38:29Don't send me home.

0:38:32 > 0:38:33I have no home, nowhere to go.

0:38:35 > 0:38:36You reckon this is smallpox, do you?

0:38:39 > 0:38:43Well...I'm taking you to see a doctor...

0:38:45 > 0:38:46..but I reckon differently.

0:38:49 > 0:38:52Dr Turner? I've found him.

0:38:53 > 0:38:56Ade Babayaro is currently concealed in my car

0:38:56 > 0:38:58and hidden with a travel rug.

0:38:58 > 0:39:00Then keep him there.

0:39:00 > 0:39:03I'll bring the medical officer and their dermatologist.

0:39:03 > 0:39:07In my humble opinion, this is not a case of

0:39:07 > 0:39:09what all and sundry presumed it was.

0:39:48 > 0:39:50God has heard my prayers.

0:40:06 > 0:40:08There was smallpox in our last port, sir.

0:40:09 > 0:40:12The men on the ship believed this was the same.

0:40:12 > 0:40:13I also believed it.

0:40:14 > 0:40:18This isn't smallpox, Mr Babayaro, and it never was.

0:40:19 > 0:40:22As the medical officer confirmed, you have leprosy.

0:40:24 > 0:40:27Leprosy is also a very bad illness.

0:40:27 > 0:40:28In the Bible...

0:40:28 > 0:40:30We've moved on since the Bible, I promise you.

0:40:32 > 0:40:35And leprosy isn't as contagious as we used to think.

0:40:36 > 0:40:41It even goes by a different name these days - Hansen's disease.

0:40:43 > 0:40:44But you can help me?

0:40:44 > 0:40:47Better than that. We can cure you.

0:40:47 > 0:40:51There's even a small specialist hospital, called Jordan's,

0:40:51 > 0:40:53not far away in Surrey.

0:40:53 > 0:40:56You should be a new man by the time they've finished with you.

0:40:56 > 0:40:59How long must he wait to be admitted?

0:40:59 > 0:41:01Not long. Perhaps a few days.

0:41:01 > 0:41:05I will go back to where I was before. I wait there.

0:41:05 > 0:41:08If I may interject, Mr Babayaro,

0:41:08 > 0:41:11I'm of the view that that would be unwise.

0:41:11 > 0:41:13Nurse Crane is right.

0:41:13 > 0:41:16We have a spare bedroom. You may stay there

0:41:16 > 0:41:20and enjoy the peace and quiet whilst you wait to be transferred.

0:41:20 > 0:41:21Perfect!

0:41:21 > 0:41:25And I can call in, in the event of any problems.

0:41:25 > 0:41:27You may take meals with us, if you wish.

0:41:28 > 0:41:32No. With your permission, it is best I eat alone.

0:41:42 > 0:41:44Vi?

0:41:44 > 0:41:48Guess what - that sailor didn't have smallpox. He had leprosy.

0:41:48 > 0:41:50- SHE GASPS - A leper?

0:41:50 > 0:41:53Well, don't they send them away to a colony?

0:41:53 > 0:41:55Not any more. He's seen a specialist

0:41:55 > 0:41:58and apparently leprosy is not contagious.

0:41:58 > 0:42:00There's no chance Reggie caught a thing.

0:42:00 > 0:42:02Oh! Thank goodness for that.

0:42:02 > 0:42:04Can Ade come on the picnic?

0:42:04 > 0:42:06Er, no, Reggie, no, not this time.

0:42:06 > 0:42:09He's got to get himself better first.

0:42:09 > 0:42:12Oh, cheer up, Reggie.

0:42:12 > 0:42:16Look - my to-do list is as long as my arm!

0:42:16 > 0:42:17I need your help.

0:42:27 > 0:42:28If I die...

0:42:30 > 0:42:33..I know you will continue to bless me,

0:42:33 > 0:42:35to be there with me.

0:42:36 > 0:42:39I want to say thank you for guiding me everywhere,

0:42:39 > 0:42:41and what I have been through.

0:42:42 > 0:42:46Thank you for...protecting me.

0:42:49 > 0:42:50Forgive me, Sister. I am sorry.

0:42:55 > 0:42:59"There came a leper to him, beseeching him,

0:42:59 > 0:43:03"and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him,

0:43:03 > 0:43:06" 'If thou wilt, thou can make me clean.' "

0:43:07 > 0:43:10You have been cast out because of your infirmity.

0:43:13 > 0:43:14I was cast out before that.

0:43:16 > 0:43:18It is my life to walk alone.

0:43:18 > 0:43:19How so?

0:43:21 > 0:43:23Oil was found near my home in Nigeria.

0:43:26 > 0:43:27My father was an elder

0:43:27 > 0:43:30and when they came for the oil, there was conflict.

0:43:31 > 0:43:34My escape was to go to Lagos and to sea.

0:43:37 > 0:43:41So I lived, but I was cast adrift.

0:43:41 > 0:43:43Ah.

0:43:43 > 0:43:48We are none of us cast adrift, if we have faith.

0:43:50 > 0:43:54In the cross, we find our anchor.

0:44:02 > 0:44:07And don't forget, the charabanc leaves at eight o'clock!

0:44:09 > 0:44:10It's upside down.

0:44:11 > 0:44:14Quick - give me another one.

0:44:14 > 0:44:17And don't tell Vi! Anything goes wrong with this picnic,

0:44:17 > 0:44:19she'll have my guts for garters.

0:44:22 > 0:44:26Ade continues to have a good appetite. He has cleared his plate.

0:44:26 > 0:44:28I'm sure you'll all be delighted to know that a suitable place

0:44:28 > 0:44:31has been found for our newest resident.

0:44:31 > 0:44:33Ah, does that bring us to the unfortunate position

0:44:33 > 0:44:36that Mr Babayaro will be leaving us?

0:44:37 > 0:44:42The connection between our devotionals has been most uplifting,

0:44:42 > 0:44:45and in such a brief time.

0:44:45 > 0:44:47It does indeed, Sister.

0:44:47 > 0:44:51Ade will be admitted to Jordan Hospital in Surrey tomorrow.

0:44:51 > 0:44:56There he will receive the treatment he so requires.

0:44:56 > 0:44:58And he's likely to make a full recovery, Sister?

0:44:58 > 0:45:00Or will he always be marked?

0:45:00 > 0:45:06The scarring is unknown. But in time, Ade will eventually be cured.

0:45:08 > 0:45:12In my book, such positive news calls for another slice of Madeira cake.

0:45:30 > 0:45:32Eun?

0:45:33 > 0:45:34Eunice?

0:45:38 > 0:45:41SOBBING

0:45:41 > 0:45:42Eun?

0:45:44 > 0:45:48Eun? What... What you doing? Open the door, love.

0:45:48 > 0:45:49- Let me in.- No.

0:45:50 > 0:45:52It's started, Kenny...

0:45:53 > 0:45:56..and I can't do it. I'm not coming out.

0:45:57 > 0:45:59Eunice, open this door.

0:45:59 > 0:46:02Come on, love. We don't want to wake Michael up, do we?

0:46:04 > 0:46:06No.

0:46:06 > 0:46:08I'm not doing it, Kenny. I can't.

0:46:09 > 0:46:12Please don't do anything stupid, love, all right?

0:46:12 > 0:46:14I'm going to get some help, OK?

0:46:25 > 0:46:29Is that Nonnatus House? It's my wife, Eunice Dobson.

0:46:29 > 0:46:31She's locked herself in the bathroom.

0:46:31 > 0:46:32I think she might try and hurt herself.

0:46:32 > 0:46:34You've got to send Nurse Anderson.

0:46:34 > 0:46:36I'm not going to need any help, Kenny.

0:46:36 > 0:46:38Call Dr Turner and tell him what's happened.

0:46:38 > 0:46:41- Perhaps he can meet me there. - Of course.

0:46:46 > 0:46:51Eunice...I love you. You know that.

0:46:51 > 0:46:53Michael loves you and I love you.

0:46:54 > 0:46:55You'll be better off without me.

0:46:57 > 0:46:58No! Eun!

0:46:58 > 0:47:00SHE GROANS

0:47:05 > 0:47:07Nurse Anderson asks if Dr Turner could meet her

0:47:07 > 0:47:09at Eunice's flat right away.

0:47:09 > 0:47:12I think I'll come too. I might be of some help.

0:47:18 > 0:47:21Please let me in. You need my help in there.

0:47:21 > 0:47:24Listen to her, Eun! She knows what she's doing.

0:47:24 > 0:47:26No! Stay away from me, all of you.

0:47:28 > 0:47:30It's coming and there's nothing I can do.

0:47:32 > 0:47:34I want it over, Nurse!

0:47:35 > 0:47:36Oh, I'm so...

0:47:36 > 0:47:39Eunice. Please, don't do this.

0:47:40 > 0:47:43I can help you, but first you need to calm down and open this door.

0:47:45 > 0:47:48Nurse, I need to get her out of there.

0:47:48 > 0:47:50One more try. We don't want to alarm her.

0:47:52 > 0:47:53Eunice...

0:47:54 > 0:47:57No matter what you do, Baby will come out anyway.

0:47:58 > 0:48:01And it will be so much worse that way. Do you hear?

0:48:01 > 0:48:03You don't want to hurt Baby, do you, Eunice?

0:48:05 > 0:48:07You love your baby. You remember that?

0:48:07 > 0:48:10SHE GROANS

0:48:10 > 0:48:11Let me kick the door down.

0:48:11 > 0:48:15Kenny, why don't you take a break and let me talk to her?

0:48:19 > 0:48:21It's just you and me now, Eunice.

0:48:23 > 0:48:25And I'm sure your contractions are very painful.

0:48:25 > 0:48:27SHE GROANS

0:48:27 > 0:48:29If you come out, I'm here.

0:48:31 > 0:48:32I can help you cope with them.

0:48:37 > 0:48:40LOCK CLICKS

0:48:40 > 0:48:41Eunice...

0:48:46 > 0:48:49Now all you need to do is keep looking at me.

0:48:54 > 0:48:56That's it.

0:48:57 > 0:48:58Come to me now.

0:49:00 > 0:49:02Just keep looking at me.

0:49:04 > 0:49:05That's it!

0:49:05 > 0:49:07Come to me now.

0:49:13 > 0:49:16Nurse Anderson got her out and into the bedroom.

0:49:16 > 0:49:17Took a while, but she did it.

0:49:17 > 0:49:20I've taken Michael round to the neighbours'.

0:49:20 > 0:49:22You go to her, Shelagh.

0:49:22 > 0:49:25Me being there would only make matters worse.

0:49:25 > 0:49:27I'll be out here with Mr Dobson, just in case.

0:49:34 > 0:49:36Goodbye, Ade.

0:49:38 > 0:49:41And be sure to follow all hospital instructions.

0:49:41 > 0:49:44These specialists do know what they're talking about.

0:49:46 > 0:49:47I will pray for you.

0:49:47 > 0:49:49And I for you.

0:49:57 > 0:49:59For your faith, Sister.

0:50:06 > 0:50:09Your prayers have set me on a firm path to wellness.

0:50:10 > 0:50:12May it be the same blessings for you.

0:50:28 > 0:50:31Come on, boys. Hurry up with those chairs! Over to the car.

0:50:31 > 0:50:33Look after that trifle like it's the Crown Jewels, Reggie,

0:50:33 > 0:50:37cos Mrs Smith will have my guts for garters if her bowl gets chipped!

0:50:37 > 0:50:41I don't want to put a dampener on things, Nurse Crane.

0:50:41 > 0:50:44Law of averages says you'll get two vomits and three caught shorts.

0:50:46 > 0:50:50Observe these buckets - one empty, the other filled with sawdust.

0:50:50 > 0:50:53Thus equipped, I am prepared for most eventualities.

0:50:53 > 0:50:55Geoffrey!

0:50:55 > 0:50:56Pocket.

0:50:57 > 0:50:59Catapult?

0:51:00 > 0:51:02Confiscated.

0:51:04 > 0:51:05On the bus.

0:51:07 > 0:51:10Up you get, Sister. And not too much singing, do you hear?

0:51:10 > 0:51:12We don't want it getting too rowdy.

0:51:12 > 0:51:16I may not be able to refrain, Mr Buckle. It is oft the journey

0:51:16 > 0:51:19that provides more delight than one's destination.

0:51:19 > 0:51:22I'm actually quite experienced, when it comes to childcare.

0:51:22 > 0:51:25Mmm. What about when it comes to changing nappies?

0:51:26 > 0:51:29It could be hours before your mum and dad catch us up!

0:51:30 > 0:51:33I'm sure there'll be plenty of experts willing to advise me!

0:51:33 > 0:51:35- Ah... - SHE CHUCKLES

0:51:35 > 0:51:37Go on, Alf.

0:51:37 > 0:51:39- ENGINE STARTS - Sit down, Reggie.

0:51:39 > 0:51:42# Ging, gang, goolie-goolie-goolie... #

0:51:46 > 0:51:49EUNICE SOBS OK! OK, Eunice.

0:51:49 > 0:51:50We're nearly there.

0:51:50 > 0:51:52You're doing so well.

0:51:52 > 0:51:53She's... She's very close.

0:51:55 > 0:51:58Come on, Eunice. You can do it.

0:51:58 > 0:52:01I can't do it! Nurse, I told you, I can't!

0:52:01 > 0:52:04You can! You can do it, Eunice!

0:52:04 > 0:52:06You can breathe this baby out.

0:52:06 > 0:52:09Look, look, look, look, look, follow me! Follow me!

0:52:09 > 0:52:11SHE BREATHES DEEPLY

0:52:11 > 0:52:13That's it! Good girl.

0:52:15 > 0:52:18- SHE YELLS - No!

0:52:24 > 0:52:28That's it. You're doing beautifully.

0:52:28 > 0:52:30That's it, Eunice.

0:52:30 > 0:52:31With your next breath,

0:52:31 > 0:52:34your baby's going to be born into this fine new day.

0:52:34 > 0:52:37EUNICE GROANS

0:52:37 > 0:52:40Nearly there, Eunice. Keep going!

0:52:46 > 0:52:48BABY CRIES

0:52:48 > 0:52:51You have a beautiful daughter!

0:52:56 > 0:52:58You did it!

0:52:58 > 0:53:00Thank you!

0:53:00 > 0:53:01Thank you!

0:53:03 > 0:53:04You did it!

0:53:21 > 0:53:23Oh!

0:53:24 > 0:53:26Oh!

0:53:27 > 0:53:29Oh, my girl!

0:53:30 > 0:53:32I'm so proud of you.

0:53:45 > 0:53:50Ah. What about that, then, Vi, eh? We did it!

0:53:50 > 0:53:54- Yes. We did. - SHE CHUCKLES

0:53:56 > 0:53:59Fred, people are just going in the bushes!

0:53:59 > 0:54:02You can't have them tiddling all over the place.

0:54:02 > 0:54:05I mean, this picnic's got parish connections

0:54:05 > 0:54:06and it'll bring out the wasps.

0:54:06 > 0:54:10You'll have to go and tell the men and I'll go and talk to the ladies.

0:54:12 > 0:54:14DOORBELL RINGS

0:54:16 > 0:54:18DOORBELL RINGS

0:54:18 > 0:54:21I've put the cases in the hall for now.

0:54:21 > 0:54:23Everything smells a bit musty.

0:54:23 > 0:54:25I think everyone's gone out.

0:54:25 > 0:54:28You said you didn't want any balloons or a welcoming committee.

0:54:28 > 0:54:30That's why we didn't tell them we were coming home.

0:54:30 > 0:54:34I still wanted to see everyone. Besides, I'm ravenous.

0:54:34 > 0:54:35Gangway!

0:54:37 > 0:54:39Oh! Hello!

0:54:39 > 0:54:41Was that you ringing on the bell?

0:54:41 > 0:54:44Sorry. Waters have broken on the other side of the borough!

0:54:44 > 0:54:46Fifth baby.

0:54:46 > 0:54:48Where is everyone?

0:54:49 > 0:54:51Parish picnic, Epping Forest!

0:54:51 > 0:54:53So wonderful you're back.

0:54:55 > 0:54:56I don't like it.

0:54:56 > 0:55:00I'm afraid I don't care if you don't like potted beef, Dean.

0:55:00 > 0:55:03Once you've bitten into it, you can't put it back.

0:55:03 > 0:55:04And I'm rationing their lemonade

0:55:04 > 0:55:08if they can't obey the rules regarding the facilities.

0:55:08 > 0:55:09- Oh, give it to me. - Come on, Phyllis!

0:55:09 > 0:55:12You were a demon at quoits on board ship, by all accounts.

0:55:12 > 0:55:14We can vouch for that!

0:55:14 > 0:55:15We certainly can!

0:55:16 > 0:55:18Barbara! Tom!

0:55:24 > 0:55:25Oh, Teddy!

0:55:29 > 0:55:31- SHE SNIFFS - Ooh!

0:55:34 > 0:55:36We picked up a couple of stragglers on the way.

0:55:36 > 0:55:40And we picked up a box of cream cakes.

0:55:41 > 0:55:45I'm always rather uneasy when I see a shop open on a Sunday.

0:55:45 > 0:55:48But nobody's going to be clapped in irons for a few vanilla slices.

0:55:48 > 0:55:49I hope not.

0:55:49 > 0:55:52We don't want your visit home ending in a Black Maria.

0:55:54 > 0:55:57This isn't a visit, Phyllis.

0:55:57 > 0:56:01The Bishop declared my mission to Birmingham accomplished.

0:56:01 > 0:56:04We're back where we belong. For good.

0:56:04 > 0:56:06CHEERING

0:56:06 > 0:56:07Hurrah!

0:56:10 > 0:56:12MATURE JENNY: Eunice had no more children,

0:56:12 > 0:56:17and her family, now complete, became a happy one once more.

0:56:17 > 0:56:21Her condition, not recognised or named for many decades,

0:56:21 > 0:56:24is now known as tocophobia.

0:56:29 > 0:56:33Fear can keep us tethered, terror can clip our wings,

0:56:33 > 0:56:36but trust eases pain.

0:56:36 > 0:56:39Hope can lighten the sky.

0:56:39 > 0:56:42Love makes us courageous.

0:56:46 > 0:56:49And what matters most is not

0:56:49 > 0:56:53whether we hide or fly or even where our journey takes us -

0:56:53 > 0:56:57but what guides us home and where we come to land.

0:57:10 > 0:57:13I mean, it's just like the photo! It's perfect.

0:57:13 > 0:57:15I'm in to get me cataract done.

0:57:15 > 0:57:19Ripe as a French fig and ready for slicing!

0:57:19 > 0:57:21I could lose my children. I have no home.

0:57:21 > 0:57:23I have no means of making a living.

0:57:23 > 0:57:26Am I to stand by while you corrupt their young minds?

0:57:26 > 0:57:27Phyllis!

0:57:27 > 0:57:30My friend - she's inside. Please help!
