0:00:48 > 0:00:52Sometimes life is shattered in an instant...
0:00:55 > 0:00:56..and all our certainties
0:00:56 > 0:00:58are savagely stripped away.
0:01:01 > 0:01:05Questions become our weapons.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07Answers are our only hope.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13Without them, fear engulfs us.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Love and each other
0:01:24 > 0:01:26can be all we have.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41- Are they sure?- Almost certain,
0:01:41 > 0:01:44but the lumbar puncture should confirm it.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46The fact that Barbara has a rash
0:01:46 > 0:01:49that doesn't fade when pressed,
0:01:49 > 0:01:52suggests not only meningitis
0:01:52 > 0:01:54but a blood infection too.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59They've started her on antibiotics immediately.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02- Can I see her?- I'm afraid not.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06They have to keep her isolated for the time being.
0:02:06 > 0:02:11They can't run the risk of any further infection.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13Don't fret, lad.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16She's young and strong.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19That'll stand her in good stead.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21She's a fighter is our Barbara.
0:02:31 > 0:02:35There's a nip today, Fred Buckle,
0:02:35 > 0:02:37and I don't want you catching anything.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Nursing is not my forte.
0:02:44 > 0:02:45Fred...
0:02:49 > 0:02:52..give Tom my love.
0:02:55 > 0:03:00While Nurse Hereward is indisposed, it's all hands on deck.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02The doctors are advising every one of us here
0:03:02 > 0:03:05to take a course of antibiotics
0:03:05 > 0:03:06as a precaution.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09There will also be a prescription offered to any mothers
0:03:09 > 0:03:11who have had close contact with her in the last week.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14My mum's friend's youngest had meningitis.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16They went through a terrible time.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19- It was touch and go.- Oh, dear, how dreadful.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22It was. But he's fine now.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25Nurse Crane, would you please add me to the roster?
0:03:25 > 0:03:29We will all cover for Nurse Hereward until she's back with us.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32Thank you, Sister. Right, Nurse Anderson,
0:03:32 > 0:03:37can you add Mrs Palmer from Liverton Street to your list?
0:03:37 > 0:03:40Her baby's a week old and Barbara was due...
0:03:42 > 0:03:45..to make a home visit today.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48Of course.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Good. Thank you.
0:03:53 > 0:03:57Right, I'm going. I'll call if I hear any news about Barbara.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00Does Tom know how serious meningococcal septicaemia is?
0:04:00 > 0:04:03He does, but he's in shock.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Dad, can I go and see The Rolling Stones tomorrow?
0:04:06 > 0:04:07They're on at the Regal.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10- Aren't they a bit...? - What?- Undesirable.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12I'm going to watch them, not make friends with them.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16It's not you I'm worried about, it's their crowd.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19I'm late. We'll talk about it tonight.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24They have got a bit of a reputation, Timothy.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26That's ridiculous.
0:04:26 > 0:04:30To be fair, he's being pulled in all directions at the moment
0:04:30 > 0:04:33with the clinic, his surgery, and Wadelock House.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36- What's Wadelock House?- A remand home.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38He's covering for a colleague there this week.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40BABY CRIES
0:04:42 > 0:04:45Come along, ladies. Shift yourselves before you take root.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48Nurse Crane, if you'd like me to drive you to the hospital later,
0:04:48 > 0:04:50I'd be more than happy to do it. You only have to ask.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53Thank you, very kind, but no, thank you.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26No change.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29But keep a close eye.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33If the colour in her fingers or toes deteriorates any further, call me.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35Yes, Sister.
0:06:02 > 0:06:07Two, three, four, five.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10Star jumps for ten on me! Ready? Go!
0:06:10 > 0:06:13One, two, three, four,
0:06:13 > 0:06:17five, six, seven, eight...
0:06:17 > 0:06:22Ah, Dr Turner, good to have you on board.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24I'm afraid you're about to earn your keep.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27We have a galloping outbreak of our old friend scabies.
0:06:27 > 0:06:31Ah, well, in that case, all bedding and clothing
0:06:31 > 0:06:35will have to be washed in boiling hot water then dried with heat.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37Don't worry, we know the drill.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40Welcome to Wadelock House.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43One, two, three...
0:06:46 > 0:06:48How is she?
0:06:48 > 0:06:51Erm...much the same.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54We need to give the penicillin a chance to do its work.
0:06:54 > 0:06:58But she's holding her own, and that's something to take heart from.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01Can I sit with her? Just for a few minutes? Please.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03I need to see her for myself.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06I'm sorry.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10I know it's hard, but you won't be of any help to her
0:07:10 > 0:07:13- in her present condition.- Please don't let her die.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17We are doing everything in our power to prevent it.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20I have great faith in our doctors, Mr Hereward.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23As much as you have in God, I suspect.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27You can come back this evening.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43DOORBELL RINGS
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Ah! Good morning, Nurse...
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Anderson. I'm afraid Nurse Hereward is sick today
0:07:50 > 0:07:51and I'm covering some of her patients.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Oh, what a shame. I had a little gift to give to her too.
0:07:54 > 0:07:58You know, just to thank her for the gift she's given me.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01You can give it to me and I'll make sure she get it.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04Look at me, keeping you on the doorstep. Come in, come in.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11Ah, shoes off...if you don't mind.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14It's a brand-new carpet.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17Winston - he's my husband - said we should get the linoleum,
0:08:17 > 0:08:19but I had my heart set.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21We'll be in the back room, Nurse.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23I only have the heating on in the front room on a Sunday.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25You sound like my mother.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Your mother sounds like a very smart woman.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31- Where are you from, Nurse? In Jamaica?- Manchester. You?
0:08:31 > 0:08:32St Catherine.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38Now, that should keep you busy.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42Right.
0:08:42 > 0:08:46Let me get myself settled and then I'll have you in.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48THEY LAUGH
0:08:48 > 0:08:50One at a time.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Has he been crying more than usual?
0:08:57 > 0:08:59He never cries.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- He's the best baby in the whole world.- I'm sure.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05And what about you? Are you feeling well?
0:09:05 > 0:09:07No sign of a rash or stiff neck?
0:09:07 > 0:09:09Why? Could we have caught this?
0:09:09 > 0:09:11It's unlikely, but we'd like you both
0:09:11 > 0:09:15to take a course of antibiotics, just to be on the safe side.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22It's really nothing to worry about.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Your baby is thriving, Mrs Palmer.
0:09:24 > 0:09:27He's put on 2oz since Nurse Hereward last weighed him.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30- All he does is eat.- That's what he meant to do.
0:09:30 > 0:09:34- That and sleep.- I hope he slows down, just for a little while.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Otherwise, he'll be bursting out of his christening robe.
0:09:36 > 0:09:40And what will your father think if he has to bless you
0:09:40 > 0:09:44and accept you into God's love naked as you came?
0:09:45 > 0:09:48My husband is the pastor of our church.
0:09:48 > 0:09:52We've waited a very long time to thank God for our child.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55That's lovely. Where is your church?
0:09:55 > 0:09:57You are standing in it.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59My husband's congregation is a small one.
0:09:59 > 0:10:04We gather in the front room, read the Bible, pray together.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06When we first came we attended a larger church,
0:10:06 > 0:10:09with a fancy altar, big congregation, but
0:10:09 > 0:10:12their hearts were not so big.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Our church is not like that.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18- You go to church, Nurse?- I do,
0:10:18 > 0:10:20- but I'm thinking of changing.- Ah.
0:10:20 > 0:10:24- So you know what I am saying.- No. Nothing like that.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27You're welcome to pray with us. It's a squeeze, but...
0:10:27 > 0:10:30It's kind, but I think I will be too busy working
0:10:30 > 0:10:32until Nurse Hereward is up and about again.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35Well, this door is always open,
0:10:35 > 0:10:36like at home.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45Right, so you are Michael Sumpter? Yes?
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Let's take a look at you.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Hmm. You have a mild dose of scabies.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56Nothing much.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58The lotion should clear it up fairly quickly.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03This cut's infected.
0:11:03 > 0:11:04How did you do this?
0:11:07 > 0:11:10I'll dress it for you now.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Then come in again tomorrow
0:11:13 > 0:11:15and I'll change it.
0:11:17 > 0:11:18It stings. Sorry.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32BELL RINGS
0:11:34 > 0:11:36What's that for?
0:11:36 > 0:11:38Visiting time, sir.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40You'd better go, then.
0:11:40 > 0:11:41I don't get no visitors.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Doesn't your family visit?
0:11:43 > 0:11:45I don't have no family.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56Oh, Tom, you're soaked.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59Sister Grant sent me home.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01You took a lot of notice, then.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03I'll go back there tonight,
0:12:03 > 0:12:04after visiting.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07I don't think I can face it yet. Not on my own.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10I know. I had a feeling this might happen.
0:12:10 > 0:12:15Here - a bit of sustenance and clean clothes.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17We can't let standards slide.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19I'll try my best.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23There's no change, Phyllis.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27It's early days and no change cuts both ways.
0:12:27 > 0:12:31She's no worse, Tom. Think of it like that.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33I know how much you love her...
0:12:34 > 0:12:36..and how much she loves you.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44Here, Sumpter, is it true you and your bird are having a kid?
0:12:44 > 0:12:46What happened? You forget to pull out?
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Surprised you put it in.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50She's not my bird. She's my wife.
0:12:50 > 0:12:54- Look, he talks!- And sticking up for a tart and all.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56THEY SHOUT
0:12:56 > 0:12:58What do you say? Go on, say it again!
0:13:01 > 0:13:02Get off me! Get off!
0:13:14 > 0:13:17Did you know that Mrs Palmer's husband was a pastor?
0:13:17 > 0:13:19Oh! How interesting.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22- Where's his church?- In their little flat.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25The congregation comes to him and they worship there.
0:13:25 > 0:13:29- Gosh.- We are not judged by the size of our churches,
0:13:29 > 0:13:31but the way we inhabit them.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36Sister, you're not wearing your glasses.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39How peculiar.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41They must have fallen off.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43It's a sign.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46- Perhaps they do not like it there. - No matter.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48We'll find them.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Now, come along, eat up.
0:13:50 > 0:13:55Strangely...I find myself devoid of the ability
0:13:55 > 0:13:57to partake in this nourishment.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00I am old.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04I have had my time, yet here I am, sight renewed...
0:14:06 > 0:14:10..while our beloved friend is stricken so.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14I would gladly let the Good Lord take me
0:14:14 > 0:14:17if he would spare her.
0:14:17 > 0:14:21He does not trade one precious soul for another, Sister.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23It is not his way.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Aren't you cold out here?
0:14:36 > 0:14:39Now you mention it.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41Hard day?
0:14:43 > 0:14:46There's a local boy in there,
0:14:46 > 0:14:48same age as Tim.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51He troubles me.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53I can hardly get two words out of him.
0:14:56 > 0:15:00There are scars on his wrist, Shelagh.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02He's clearly depressed,
0:15:02 > 0:15:05but there doesn't seem to be any help in there.
0:15:06 > 0:15:10He doesn't strike me as the usual type.
0:15:10 > 0:15:14I saw him defending his wife's honour today.
0:15:14 > 0:15:15His wife?
0:15:15 > 0:15:18And she's pregnant.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22Can you imagine how he must feel, locked up, away from her?
0:15:24 > 0:15:27I wish I could get him to open up to me.
0:15:27 > 0:15:31Would you like me to find out if his wife is a patient at Nonnatus House?
0:15:32 > 0:15:34Their name is Sumpter.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36I'll check in the clinic.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41- Where's Tim?- Orchestra.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43- It's Monday, remember.- Ah.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45He should be back about seven.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57Did you get some sleep, Mr Hereward?
0:15:57 > 0:15:59I have a confession, Sister.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01I didn't even go home.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03I'll sit here, and I promise not to move.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06I just have to be here when she wakes up.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10I've sat at the bedside of so many dying people,
0:16:10 > 0:16:12some of them in this very hospital,
0:16:12 > 0:16:14surely I can be near my own wife?
0:16:16 > 0:16:19She's still very ill, but she's calmer
0:16:19 > 0:16:21and not as feverish as she was.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25If you wear a mask and gown,
0:16:25 > 0:16:27I'll let you in to sit with her for a few moments.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38Just sit with her.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40I have a feeling she'll know you're here.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10Where have you been? You're late.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12Orchestra.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16Till this time? It's nearly ten!
0:17:16 > 0:17:18We were worried.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21I almost called the police.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24You're not allowed out with your friends again until I say.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27That's not fair. They're all going to see The Rolling Stones tomorrow.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Good for them.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32Hope they get out in one piece. Now, go to bed.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- Phyllis...- Yes?
0:17:54 > 0:17:57Would you like me to pray with you?
0:17:57 > 0:17:59For Barbara.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03Please don't think me ungrateful. Pray all you like for Barbara,
0:18:03 > 0:18:05but don't ask me to do it.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08I'll just do what I am doing, quietly.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16I might have put my foot in it last night.
0:18:16 > 0:18:20Why? I asked Phyllis if she wanted to pray with me for Barbara.
0:18:20 > 0:18:24I knew she wouldn't want to, so I don't know why I did it.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26It would be like asking you.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29You were being kind. Phyllis'll know that.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32If I'm honest, I think it was more for my sake.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35I like to pray with other people.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38It's how I was brought up.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40I can understand that.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43Everything feels so fragile right now.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47There must be a comfort in it.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56If you want some company on the bus this Sunday,
0:18:56 > 0:18:58I'm happy to tag along.
0:18:58 > 0:19:02I can always go for a wander when you go to church.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06That's kind of you, but let's see how Barbara is first.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13Oh...
0:19:14 > 0:19:17Nurse Crane, why don't you let myself
0:19:17 > 0:19:20and the other midwives share your cases between us?
0:19:20 > 0:19:22I'm sure you'd rather be at the hospital.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25I think I'd prefer to carry on for now,
0:19:25 > 0:19:26but perhaps later.
0:19:26 > 0:19:30What do you think about asking Mrs Turner to come back?
0:19:30 > 0:19:34Could be the perfect solution. If she's willing, of course.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36We can but ask.
0:19:39 > 0:19:40How's your hand?
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Hey, look - Sumpter's boyfriend.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46I need to change your dressing.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50Can you come up to the medical room when you're finished here?
0:19:53 > 0:19:57- Oooh, Medical room.- Oooh! THEY LAUGH
0:19:57 > 0:20:00He's been right as rain, nurse. Not up or down.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02That's good. I wanted to make sure.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05I forgot to give you this, for Nurse Hereward.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11Oh, that's pretty.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13Nurse Hereward will love it.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16My mother collects little glass ornaments.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19You miss her, don't you?
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Yes,
0:20:21 > 0:20:24but my work is here, and I love it.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27Which reminds me, I have clinic today.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29We have a prayer meeting this evening.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Thank you, but I have choir practice tonight.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36We don't have a choir, but we love to sing.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40Goodbye, Mrs Palmer.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47That's looking better.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49If you like, I can ask them
0:20:49 > 0:20:51to take you off gardening duty for a few days.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Nah, I like going outside.
0:20:55 > 0:20:59I saw those other boys provoking you.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01Does it happen often?
0:21:01 > 0:21:03It happens to everyone.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05I ain't anything special.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08You hear what they said?
0:21:08 > 0:21:09About Alison.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Is Alison your wife?
0:21:12 > 0:21:14Called her a tart.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16- She isn't.- I'm sure she isn't.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Don't know what she saw in me.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Her mother says I'm good for nothing.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26She didn't want her to marry me,
0:21:26 > 0:21:30but she didn't want a bastard in the family so she let her.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33All she cares about is what people think.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36Where's Alison now?
0:21:36 > 0:21:38Living with her.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41Couldn't afford a place of our own.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Must be hard.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45At least she's not stuck with some good-for-nothing waster
0:21:45 > 0:21:48who's going to be in and out of jail for the rest of his life.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Did Alison say that?
0:21:50 > 0:21:53No. I did.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56But I bet she thinks it.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Tom,
0:22:03 > 0:22:05you look terrible.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07Thank you.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09How is she?
0:22:10 > 0:22:13She's still not awake,
0:22:13 > 0:22:15but the fever's come down a bit.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18- The sister says that's good.- It is.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21What did I tell you? She's a strong lass.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27I've bought her some clean nightclothes. And this is for you,
0:22:27 > 0:22:31from Fred. It's a razor.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33And if I were you, I'd use it.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36You don't want Barbara waking up and getting the fright of her life
0:22:36 > 0:22:39because your facial hair has taken on a life of its own.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42Wouldn't that be something?
0:22:42 > 0:22:45For Barbara to wake up and look at me
0:22:45 > 0:22:47in the way that she does.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03Looks like the word's out.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07This is Poplar, Fred. The word is always out.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10They must think a great deal of Barbara.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12They do.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14They think of her and Tom as family.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16That's a lovely thing,
0:23:16 > 0:23:20especially as they're not from here.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22Very lucky.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44I saw Sister Julienne today.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47She asked me to come back to Nonnatus House and work with them
0:23:47 > 0:23:50- while Barbara's in hospital.- What did you say?
0:23:50 > 0:23:53I said I had to talk it over with you.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55We'll manage.
0:23:57 > 0:23:58I checked at clinic
0:23:58 > 0:24:02and there isn't anyone called Sumpter on their books.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04That's a shame.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07I hope she hasn't moved away.
0:24:07 > 0:24:08That would make things harder for Michael.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24I was about to send out a search party.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26I went for a walk.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Here.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31Just for a few minutes, mind.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41We're satisfied there's no risk of infection now,
0:24:41 > 0:24:42so you don't have to wear a mask.
0:24:44 > 0:24:48You can talk to her if you like, but keep your voice down.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52She's very drowsy still, so don't expect her to talk back.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55Nurse will be in and out.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57If you need anything, ring the bell.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07Oh, darling.
0:25:09 > 0:25:10My poor darling.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Your hand's cold.
0:25:20 > 0:25:24Everyone sends their love.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27I've been thinking
0:25:27 > 0:25:30about when you're better.
0:25:30 > 0:25:34I know we both love it here, but I think it's time for a change.
0:25:34 > 0:25:35Don't you?
0:25:37 > 0:25:40Let's move to the country...
0:25:42 > 0:25:46..with fields and streams,
0:25:46 > 0:25:48and hills as far as we can see.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53And a little cottage that opens up onto grass
0:25:53 > 0:25:55and not onto a fog-filled street.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59Somewhere safe.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06Somewhere to bring up a family.
0:26:09 > 0:26:12Folk have babies in the country.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16Some of them even go to church.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20It brings a whole new meaning to the word flock.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30Hello.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38Oh, you gave me a fright.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41You need a shave.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47- Phyllis said you'd say that.- Mm.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49Phyllis knows everything.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02Do you want some?
0:27:02 > 0:27:04Yes, please.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09Lucille, what you said before,
0:27:09 > 0:27:12about Tom and Barbara being lucky,
0:27:12 > 0:27:15it made me worry you still don't feel welcome here.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19I'd hate that.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22It's not here.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24It's at church.
0:27:26 > 0:27:30Why? What's happened?
0:27:30 > 0:27:33I only went there because of Sybil, and she made me join the choir.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38But then the choir master gave me a solo.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40I thought you said you couldn't hold a tune.
0:27:40 > 0:27:42My mother tells me never to boast.
0:27:44 > 0:27:49Anyway, some people there wasn't too happy about it.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51Some people thought it wasn't the done thing
0:27:51 > 0:27:55to have the likes of me stand up, on my own, and be seen.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57Don't go back.
0:27:57 > 0:27:59Isn't that the easy way?
0:27:59 > 0:28:01Part of me thinks I should stay
0:28:01 > 0:28:04and not be cowed by their ignorant behaviour.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07I should stand up there in front of them all and sing my heart out.
0:28:09 > 0:28:13Why don't you go to Mrs Palmer's prayer meetings instead?
0:28:13 > 0:28:14I think they sound lovely.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17They do, they sound so much like home.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20But I'm living in England now and I should be
0:28:20 > 0:28:22trying harder to fit in here.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24PHONE RINGS
0:28:24 > 0:28:26Nonnatas House. Midwife speaking.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29Oh, Mr Hereward...
0:28:29 > 0:28:31- Go.- How is everything?
0:28:35 > 0:28:37Oh....that's wonderful!
0:28:37 > 0:28:39That's so wonderful.
0:28:39 > 0:28:41I'll tell everyone.
0:28:41 > 0:28:43Night.
0:28:45 > 0:28:47Barbara's come round.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50We can go and visit her! Isn't it just so wonderful?
0:29:19 > 0:29:21Now, I've allocated you each a time to visit
0:29:21 > 0:29:24which does not interfere with your nursing duties.
0:29:24 > 0:29:26You are allowed five minutes each.
0:29:26 > 0:29:28Remember, Barbara is still very weak.
0:29:28 > 0:29:30Are we all agreed?
0:29:30 > 0:29:32- We are.- We are.- We are.- Splendid.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34If only all rotas were as welcome as this one.
0:29:34 > 0:29:38- Mrs Turner!- Welcome back, Nurse Turner.
0:29:38 > 0:29:42Thank you. It is only temporary, till we get Barbara back.
0:29:42 > 0:29:45I've pulled together a list of your calls.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47First up is Miss Wetherley.
0:30:00 > 0:30:02How does that feel?
0:30:02 > 0:30:04More like my Tom.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09# Don't know much about history
0:30:10 > 0:30:14# Don't know much biology
0:30:14 > 0:30:18# Don't know much about a science book
0:30:18 > 0:30:21# Don't know much about the French I took
0:30:21 > 0:30:24# But I do know that I love you
0:30:25 > 0:30:28# And I know that if you love me too
0:30:28 > 0:30:31# What a wonderful world this would be
0:30:31 > 0:30:36# Now I don't claim to be an A student
0:30:36 > 0:30:39# But I'm trying to be
0:30:39 > 0:30:44# For maybe by being an A student baby
0:30:44 > 0:30:47# I can win your love for me
0:30:47 > 0:30:51# Don't know much about history
0:30:51 > 0:30:55# Don't know much biology
0:30:55 > 0:30:59# Don't know much about a science book
0:30:59 > 0:31:02# Don't know much about the French I took
0:31:02 > 0:31:06# But I do know that I love you
0:31:06 > 0:31:09# And I know that if you love me too
0:31:09 > 0:31:13# What a wonderful world this would be. #
0:31:14 > 0:31:17Today, Miss Wetherley, I'm just going to examine you
0:31:17 > 0:31:20to make sure everything is progressing normally.
0:31:20 > 0:31:24Do you have to examine me? I feel fine, don't I, Mum?
0:31:24 > 0:31:26Course, you do. You're neither up nor down with it.
0:31:26 > 0:31:29I was the same. I hardly knew you were in there.
0:31:29 > 0:31:32- Are you still planning to give birth here?- Course she is.
0:31:32 > 0:31:34Why wouldn't she? This is where she lives.
0:31:34 > 0:31:37- I just have to ask.- She's going nowhere.
0:31:37 > 0:31:39Not as long as I've got breath.
0:31:39 > 0:31:41I don't like to think where you might have been living
0:31:41 > 0:31:43- if it was up to that...- Mum!
0:31:47 > 0:31:49Your hand is healing nicely.
0:31:52 > 0:31:54If those lads are bothering you,
0:31:54 > 0:31:57I could have a word with the superintendent.
0:31:57 > 0:31:59I'll be out of here soon.
0:31:59 > 0:32:02I'm up in front of the magistrates the day after tomorrow.
0:32:02 > 0:32:04You could be going home.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06I stole a car.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08I'm not going home.
0:32:09 > 0:32:11Why did you do it?
0:32:11 > 0:32:12Got a kid on the way.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16A bloke turned up with some keys,
0:32:16 > 0:32:19told me to drive it up to Stepney and he'll pay me for doing it.
0:32:19 > 0:32:22Next thing I knew, the police had me.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25- Are you sorry?- What do you think?
0:32:26 > 0:32:28Then tell them that.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32I don't have the right words.
0:32:33 > 0:32:34They tie me in knots.
0:32:34 > 0:32:36Tell me. I'll help you.
0:32:36 > 0:32:39You don't need big words,
0:32:39 > 0:32:40just the truth.
0:32:42 > 0:32:43Go on.
0:32:45 > 0:32:49I'm sorry for doing it, cos it was stupid...
0:32:51 > 0:32:54..but I just wanted to look after my wife, and I'd rather die
0:32:54 > 0:32:57than take money off her mother, the old bag, I mean...
0:32:58 > 0:33:01See. I can't say that. I can't do it.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03I just don't have the right words to use.
0:33:03 > 0:33:05You could say it in a different way.
0:33:05 > 0:33:07You could. I can't.
0:33:08 > 0:33:10It doesn't matter.
0:33:10 > 0:33:12What kind of a father would I be anyway?
0:33:16 > 0:33:18You got kids?
0:33:18 > 0:33:21Three. Two boys and a girl.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25My eldest son is the same age as you.
0:33:25 > 0:33:27Bet he's not in trouble.
0:33:27 > 0:33:30- He is at the moment.- What did he do?
0:33:32 > 0:33:35He stayed out later than he should.
0:33:35 > 0:33:38THEY LAUGH
0:33:38 > 0:33:41Is that all?
0:33:41 > 0:33:43What did you do to him?
0:33:43 > 0:33:47I told him he couldn't see his friends for a few days.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52I wish I was going up in front of you.
0:33:52 > 0:33:55You sound like an all right dad.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58Where's your dad?
0:34:00 > 0:34:02Buggered off before I were born.
0:34:03 > 0:34:05Like father like son.
0:34:10 > 0:34:12The baby's lying perfectly, Miss Wetherley.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14The head is down and engaged.
0:34:14 > 0:34:16It might not be long now.
0:34:16 > 0:34:20It's not Miss, it's Mrs...
0:34:20 > 0:34:23Mrs Wetherley? I thought that was your mother's name.
0:34:23 > 0:34:27Wetherley is my maiden name.
0:34:27 > 0:34:29I was Mrs Sumpter, but I go by Wetherley now.
0:34:29 > 0:34:32I don't want you thinking I wasn't married or anything.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34Sumpter?
0:34:34 > 0:34:36Why? What's wrong with that?
0:34:36 > 0:34:40Nothing, but I think there's something you should know.
0:34:40 > 0:34:45My husband is a GP at Wadelock House just now.
0:34:45 > 0:34:46He's met your husband.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50Don't say a word to my mum.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52If she finds out, there'll be hell to pay.
0:34:52 > 0:34:54She can't stand him.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56I'm sorry to hear that.
0:35:04 > 0:35:07Did you go to Mrs Palmer's prayer meeting?
0:35:09 > 0:35:11Why not?
0:35:11 > 0:35:15She remind me too much of my mother and her sisters
0:35:15 > 0:35:18and everything I miss from home.
0:35:18 > 0:35:20Makes me ache.
0:35:22 > 0:35:28If it was me, and I was that way inclined, I'd be there like a shot.
0:35:33 > 0:35:37Oy, Sumpter, want a drag?
0:35:37 > 0:35:40THEY LAUGH
0:35:52 > 0:35:54Why can't I speak for him?
0:35:54 > 0:35:58Because then we would have to do it for all of them, and we can't.
0:35:58 > 0:36:01How they feel is not our concern.
0:36:01 > 0:36:04We're only interested in what they've done.
0:36:04 > 0:36:09All that boy needs is for somebody to show some faith in him.
0:36:09 > 0:36:11Just once. That's all.
0:36:11 > 0:36:13Can I give you a piece of advice?
0:36:13 > 0:36:16The same advice that somebody once gave me.
0:36:16 > 0:36:18You can't save them all,
0:36:18 > 0:36:21and you'd have nothing left if you tried.
0:36:28 > 0:36:32I'll go. You look tired.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34Get some sleep before Tom comes.
0:36:35 > 0:36:39Let him know if there's anything you want me to bring.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42Phyllis...
0:36:45 > 0:36:48..look.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54These are worse, aren't they?
0:36:59 > 0:37:01I can't feel anything with them either.
0:37:08 > 0:37:10I'll go and get Sister Grant.
0:37:25 > 0:37:28That was Nurse Crane.
0:37:28 > 0:37:31The tissue on three of Nurse Hereward's fingers has been
0:37:31 > 0:37:34badly affected by the septicaemia.
0:37:34 > 0:37:37They won't know how much tissue is dead or has been badly damaged
0:37:37 > 0:37:39for a while yet.
0:37:39 > 0:37:41Could she lose them?
0:37:41 > 0:37:43It's possible.
0:37:43 > 0:37:46She's a midwife.
0:37:46 > 0:37:47She won't be able to do her job.
0:37:47 > 0:37:50Not if she can't feel anything.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52No.
0:37:56 > 0:37:58SHE SOBS
0:38:08 > 0:38:11What are you doing with that? Does it need dry cleaning?
0:38:11 > 0:38:14No. It's for Michael. He'll need it for court.
0:38:14 > 0:38:17- Does Timothy know you've taken it? - I'm only borrowing it.
0:38:17 > 0:38:19- Patrick...- Don't worry.
0:38:19 > 0:38:22I'll see you at the maternity home later.
0:38:25 > 0:38:29Look, hand-knitted.
0:38:29 > 0:38:30You'd never know I got it in a jumble.
0:38:30 > 0:38:33Don't go buying anything else.
0:38:33 > 0:38:35It'll grow out of everything before it can wear them all.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38Appearances matter, Alison, especially in your situation.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41I will not have people talking about you or my grandchild
0:38:41 > 0:38:46just because you were stupid enough to get swept away by a fly-by-night.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48You're not the first, you won't be the last.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50No wonder this country's gone to the dogs,
0:38:50 > 0:38:53because girls like you can't tell the difference
0:38:53 > 0:38:57between that thing and proper affection.
0:38:57 > 0:39:00Well, it's a good thing we won't have to worry about him after today.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02He'll be well away by the time that baby's here.
0:39:02 > 0:39:05- What do you mean?- He's in court today,
0:39:05 > 0:39:08facing up to what he did. There's no hiding now.
0:39:08 > 0:39:12- How do you know that?- I've been keeping tabs.
0:39:12 > 0:39:15Now, content yourself.
0:39:15 > 0:39:18You'll upset the baby.
0:39:20 > 0:39:22Are you tired, darling?
0:39:23 > 0:39:25Do you want me to go?
0:39:32 > 0:39:35You must always hold my hand.
0:39:39 > 0:39:42Even if I can't feel you,
0:39:42 > 0:39:44I'll remember your touch.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50All I ever wanted to be was a midwife.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55Ever since I was little.
0:39:56 > 0:39:59I wanted to bring babies into the world.
0:40:02 > 0:40:06But if that's not to be, then it's not to be.
0:40:08 > 0:40:12And I'll just have to be the best curate's wife
0:40:12 > 0:40:15in the history of curate's wives.
0:40:15 > 0:40:19Remember what you said about moving to the country?
0:40:19 > 0:40:21I didn't know you'd heard me.
0:40:21 > 0:40:23Maybe it was a dream...
0:40:25 > 0:40:28..but if it was, it was the most wonderful dream.
0:40:31 > 0:40:35I don't have to give up on babies, Tom.
0:40:35 > 0:40:37Not when we have our own.
0:40:44 > 0:40:48That day we got married,
0:40:48 > 0:40:50and I was all wrapped up in my cloak...
0:40:52 > 0:40:55..that was the safest I've ever felt.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00And that's because of you, Tom.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06Bring in my engagement ring later.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10The grass one?
0:41:11 > 0:41:13The grass one.
0:41:27 > 0:41:29All stand.
0:41:31 > 0:41:33- Excuse me, miss.- I just want to go in.
0:41:33 > 0:41:35- No, sorry, you can't come in here. - I'll sit at the back.
0:41:35 > 0:41:37I'm sorry, miss. You can't. You have to leave.
0:41:37 > 0:41:39He's my husband!
0:41:39 > 0:41:41- Michael, I'm sorry.- You have to wait outside.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43Why can't I just go in?
0:41:43 > 0:41:45Go to her. She's upset. Please.
0:41:45 > 0:41:47I thought you wanted me to stay.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49I'll be all right.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53Alison...
0:41:57 > 0:41:59I'm Dr Turner.
0:41:59 > 0:42:02I've been working at Wadelock House.
0:42:02 > 0:42:04I've been trying to help Michael.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10Are you all right?
0:42:10 > 0:42:12I need to sit down.
0:42:12 > 0:42:15I've had a gripey tummy all night.
0:42:15 > 0:42:16You might be in labour, Alison.
0:42:16 > 0:42:19We need to get you to the maternity home.
0:42:19 > 0:42:22I'll call an ambulance.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25Please don't let anything bad happen to the baby.
0:42:29 > 0:42:32I did take that car. I did...
0:42:33 > 0:42:35..but I wish I hadn't.
0:42:35 > 0:42:38More than anything, I wish I hadn't.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42I know it was wrong,
0:42:42 > 0:42:46but sometimes you don't know what's wrong until you've done it and
0:42:46 > 0:42:48then it's too late.
0:42:48 > 0:42:52You need someone to show you where you're going wrong before you do it,
0:42:52 > 0:42:55and I don't have anyone like that,
0:42:55 > 0:42:56or I didn't.
0:42:56 > 0:42:59But I'm married now.
0:42:59 > 0:43:03If you give me another chance, I swear...
0:43:03 > 0:43:07I swear I'll make good, for her and our baby.
0:43:11 > 0:43:13THEY WHISPER
0:43:17 > 0:43:22I have heard your statement and believe you are remorseful.
0:43:22 > 0:43:27However, I do not feel you are ready to face your responsibilities.
0:43:27 > 0:43:30I am therefore sentencing you to three years.
0:43:30 > 0:43:34Consequently, you will shortly be moved to a juvenile prison.
0:43:39 > 0:43:41She was at the court.
0:43:41 > 0:43:44Contractions are coming in every four minutes,
0:43:44 > 0:43:45but she's doing very well.
0:43:45 > 0:43:48Well done, Alison. That's it.
0:43:48 > 0:43:50- It hurts so much.- Breathe nice and deep.
0:43:50 > 0:43:54That's it. Well done. You're doing so well.
0:43:54 > 0:43:56Do you want us to get your mum?
0:43:56 > 0:43:58No. Not yet.
0:44:00 > 0:44:02That's it. good girl.
0:44:02 > 0:44:05Baby's going to be here very soon.
0:44:05 > 0:44:07Big push.
0:44:10 > 0:44:14SHE CRIES OUT
0:44:14 > 0:44:18- Good girl!- It hurts so much!
0:44:18 > 0:44:20Shall we get your mum?
0:44:20 > 0:44:23No! I want Michael.
0:44:23 > 0:44:26- I want Michael.- Alison, as soon as your baby is born,
0:44:26 > 0:44:29Dr Turner will make sure Michael knows.
0:44:29 > 0:44:32- Promise?- Promise.
0:44:49 > 0:44:50SHE MOANS
0:44:50 > 0:44:54On the next contraction, I want you to give me small controlled pushes.
0:44:54 > 0:44:56- I can't, I can't.- Yes, you can.
0:44:56 > 0:45:00You're nearly there and you're doing so well. So well.
0:45:00 > 0:45:04That's it. Just one small push.
0:45:04 > 0:45:05Lovely. And another.
0:45:09 > 0:45:11Now, pant.
0:45:13 > 0:45:15Oh, well done!
0:45:15 > 0:45:16SHE CRIES OUT
0:45:16 > 0:45:18Baby's head's born.
0:45:18 > 0:45:22Push again and we'll have baby.
0:45:22 > 0:45:23SHE MOANS
0:45:25 > 0:45:27Well done, Alison!
0:45:27 > 0:45:28Well done.
0:45:28 > 0:45:32You've got a perfect baby boy.
0:45:33 > 0:45:36Let me see him. Let me see him.
0:45:36 > 0:45:38BABY CRIES
0:45:55 > 0:45:57See.
0:45:57 > 0:45:59Perfect.
0:46:02 > 0:46:05Well done, Alison.
0:46:05 > 0:46:07He looks just like his dad.
0:46:13 > 0:46:15Michael!
0:46:17 > 0:46:19You've got a little boy.
0:46:19 > 0:46:21A boy?
0:46:21 > 0:46:23And he's perfect, Michael.
0:46:23 > 0:46:27- Alison...- She was wonderful.
0:46:27 > 0:46:29She sent me here to tell you, Michael.
0:46:29 > 0:46:33She wants you to know that he looks just like you.
0:46:36 > 0:46:40I know three years must feel like a life sentence,
0:46:40 > 0:46:43but it's up to you.
0:46:43 > 0:46:45You're a dad, now.
0:46:45 > 0:46:47You've got someone to prove it to.
0:46:54 > 0:46:56I'm not getting better, Phyllis.
0:46:59 > 0:47:03As long as I've known you, you've never hidden from anything.
0:47:05 > 0:47:07I've learnt a lot from you
0:47:07 > 0:47:10and I didn't think there was much left to learn.
0:47:11 > 0:47:15There's nothing anyone can teach you about caring for people, Phyllis.
0:47:15 > 0:47:17Not sure everyone would agree with that.
0:47:17 > 0:47:20Well, they don't know you like I do.
0:47:22 > 0:47:25This next bit is going to be hard.
0:47:29 > 0:47:32I hate seeing the people I love upset.
0:47:34 > 0:47:36We'll do our best.
0:47:44 > 0:47:47- Is that my suit?- Yes.
0:47:47 > 0:47:50Did you go into my room and take it? Without asking me?
0:47:50 > 0:47:54Imagine if I'd done that. I probably wouldn't be allowed out for a year.
0:47:54 > 0:47:57I'm sorry. I should've asked.
0:47:57 > 0:48:01- I would have given it to you. You know that.- I know.
0:48:04 > 0:48:06But we weren't speaking,
0:48:06 > 0:48:09and I wanted to help one of the boys at Wadelock.
0:48:09 > 0:48:12He was up in court and he didn't have anything to wear.
0:48:12 > 0:48:14That's not an excuse.
0:48:14 > 0:48:15I know.
0:48:19 > 0:48:22What happened to him?
0:48:22 > 0:48:24He got sent to an approved school.
0:48:25 > 0:48:28- How old is he?- Same age as you...
0:48:28 > 0:48:30..but he seemed much older.
0:48:30 > 0:48:33I'm not a child any more either.
0:48:34 > 0:48:37Sometimes it's hard for a dad to accept that.
0:48:39 > 0:48:42You will always be my little boy.
0:48:42 > 0:48:43Dad!
0:48:45 > 0:48:47I am sorry you missed that concert.
0:48:47 > 0:48:50It's a good thing they're coming back then, at the end of the month.
0:48:50 > 0:48:52Good.
0:48:52 > 0:48:55- I'll come with you.- Rather go with my mates.
0:48:55 > 0:48:57I don't blame you.
0:48:57 > 0:48:59THEY LAUGH
0:49:14 > 0:49:16ALARM SOUNDS
0:49:29 > 0:49:32PHONE RINGS
0:49:33 > 0:49:35Midwife speaking.
0:49:35 > 0:49:36Valerie, it's Tom.
0:49:36 > 0:49:39Please tell Phyllis to meet me at the hospital right away.
0:49:39 > 0:49:41Phyllis!
0:49:55 > 0:49:58Tom...
0:50:02 > 0:50:06I'm afraid that the septicaemia has caused irreversible damage.
0:50:06 > 0:50:08There's nothing more that we can do.
0:50:29 > 0:50:32SHE WHEEZES
0:50:37 > 0:50:39Oh, Barbara.
0:50:40 > 0:50:43I love you so much.
0:50:43 > 0:50:46My life has been blessed to have you in it.
0:50:49 > 0:50:52I can't bear to let you go.
0:51:31 > 0:51:33Talk to her, Tom.
0:51:33 > 0:51:36She can still hear you.
0:51:45 > 0:51:47The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
0:51:48 > 0:51:51He maketh me lie down in green pastures.
0:51:53 > 0:51:56He leadeth me beside still waters.
0:51:58 > 0:52:01He restoreth my soul.
0:52:02 > 0:52:05He leadeth me in paths of righteousness.
0:52:07 > 0:52:10Yea, though I walk
0:52:10 > 0:52:13through the valley of the shadow...
0:52:23 > 0:52:27Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
0:52:27 > 0:52:29I will fear no evil,
0:52:29 > 0:52:32for thou art with me.
0:52:32 > 0:52:35Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
0:52:37 > 0:52:40Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
0:52:40 > 0:52:42all the days of my life,
0:52:42 > 0:52:45and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
0:53:01 > 0:53:02She's gone.
0:53:02 > 0:53:05HE CRIES
0:54:39 > 0:54:42SHE CRIES
0:54:51 > 0:54:54DOORBELL RINGS
0:54:57 > 0:55:01- Am I too late?- No-one is ever late in God's eyes.
0:55:10 > 0:55:13- Is everybody very hungry? - CONGREGATION:- Yes, Father.
0:55:13 > 0:55:15All right, we got you some good food in a minute, right?
0:55:15 > 0:55:17Not too much, son, I'm watching you.
0:55:17 > 0:55:19- LAUGHTER - You better watch.
0:55:19 > 0:55:22Welcome! Welcome to our gathering, sister.
0:55:22 > 0:55:24THEY SHOUT GREETINGS
0:55:24 > 0:55:26Everybody! Amazing grace...
0:55:26 > 0:55:28- ALL:- Yes.
0:55:28 > 0:55:32..how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me.
0:55:32 > 0:55:34- Amen.- Amen.
0:55:36 > 0:55:42# Amazing grace
0:55:42 > 0:55:50# ALL: How sweet the sound
0:55:50 > 0:55:57# That saved a wretch
0:55:57 > 0:56:05# Like me
0:56:05 > 0:56:12# I once was lost
0:56:12 > 0:56:19# But now I'm found
0:56:19 > 0:56:23# Was blind
0:56:23 > 0:56:31# But now I see. #
0:56:35 > 0:56:37Love cannot always save us,
0:56:37 > 0:56:40but it can be the reason why we fight.
0:56:48 > 0:56:53Then love becomes the wound that bleeds.
0:56:53 > 0:56:56The space to be filled.
0:56:56 > 0:57:00The emptiness that echoes into silence.
0:57:10 > 0:57:12The world doesn't stop.
0:57:12 > 0:57:14We've got work to do, haven't we?
0:57:14 > 0:57:16Do you reckon you might be a bit old to be doing this?
0:57:16 > 0:57:18Do you reckon you might be too young?
0:57:18 > 0:57:22Anniversary of my own birth will doubtless go unmarked.
0:57:22 > 0:57:24Have a good look, and tell me what you think has gone.
0:57:24 > 0:57:26I want to go home now.
0:57:26 > 0:57:28You will find a way. I promise you.
