0:08:04 > 0:08:06name, address, GP, and I'll enter them

0:08:06 > 0:08:08in the system in a second. I'll be back. Ssh.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16Charlie. Charlie?

0:08:21 > 0:08:22- Dr Hanna!- Mmm-hmm?

0:08:22 > 0:08:24You're looking very nice.

0:08:24 > 0:08:28- Erm, are you busy, right now? For the next 30 seconds, anyway?- Why?

0:08:28 > 0:08:30Um, I'm trying to take a patient's details and the...

0:08:32 > 0:08:34- You couldn't, could you? - Couldn't what?

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Look after Charlie's granddaughter.

0:08:36 > 0:08:40- Do you know me?- Oh, please, Zo!

0:08:40 > 0:08:43OK, Noel, I want you to think of all the staff in this hospital,

0:08:43 > 0:08:45even the men, and I want you to rank them

0:08:45 > 0:08:47from most maternal to the least maternal.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Where do you think I would score?

0:08:50 > 0:08:53Think you just answered your own question.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56- But Charlie's... - Chase him up! Page him.

0:08:56 > 0:09:01Ssh, ssh, ssh.

0:09:01 > 0:09:03It's OK, it's OK.

0:09:20 > 0:09:24'You have one new message. New message...'

0:09:24 > 0:09:28'Michael, it's me. Call me as soon as you get this message.

0:09:28 > 0:09:29'I've been in an accident...

0:09:29 > 0:09:32'HE SPLUTTERS'

0:09:32 > 0:09:33'Help!'

0:09:37 > 0:09:39- Just me.- No patient?

0:09:39 > 0:09:42That'll be your finely-honed intellect working overtime(!)

0:09:42 > 0:09:45- Do you mind? - This is just a skive, isn't it?

0:09:45 > 0:09:48Go away. Haven't you got a patient you can harass?

0:09:48 > 0:09:50Do you have any friends?

0:09:50 > 0:09:52I have a friend.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54The imaginary type?

0:09:54 > 0:09:57- No, she's real.- She? She?!

0:09:57 > 0:10:02For some unimaginable reason, I thought any friend you'd have would have to be some geeky bloke.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05I wouldn't let Dervla overhear you saying that,

0:10:05 > 0:10:06she can be quite a bitch.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09Bitch. You're talking about your dog, aren't you?

0:10:11 > 0:10:13She's the lady, hmm?

0:10:13 > 0:10:15Does that make you the tramp?

0:10:19 > 0:10:22- Are you busy?- No. Not busy, really.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24I need to ask you a big favour. Sorry.

0:10:25 > 0:10:29OK, Tony, well, the pills don't seem to have done any real damage,

0:10:29 > 0:10:31so you're free to go whenever you're ready.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33Just be more careful with them next time, OK?

0:10:39 > 0:10:41- Adam.- Yeah. - Tony Finch.- What about him?

0:10:41 > 0:10:43You're discharging him?

0:10:43 > 0:10:46Yeah. He's been pulling all-nighters at work, he's exhausted, he just...

0:10:46 > 0:10:49- took a few too many prescription pills.- You believe him?

0:10:51 > 0:10:54Ah, physically, he's on the mend.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57- Well, I think it might be an overdose.- Why?

0:10:57 > 0:10:59I got talking to him about his wife.

0:10:59 > 0:11:04She left him for someone else last month. My guess is he's depressed.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07Good spot. I'll call Psych.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12Hmm, Adam Trueman listens to someone -

0:11:12 > 0:11:16- isn't that one of the signs of the apocalypse?- It happens all the time.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18I'll get it.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20Daniel Warwick, 40 years old.

0:11:20 > 0:11:22Near drowning after driving his car into the river.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24Been there about a minute. Had to fish him out.

0:11:24 > 0:11:27No obvious injuries. GCS is up to 15.

0:11:27 > 0:11:30No neck pain, but he was cyanosed. Sats are 80%.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33- Which bed, please?- Er, number one.

0:11:33 > 0:11:35Cheers. OK, Daniel.

0:11:35 > 0:11:38Using your own nasal prongs now?

0:11:38 > 0:11:41No, they're his, as it goes. He had his own supply.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44Hey, Daniel, my name's Dr Trueman. Do you know where you are?

0:11:44 > 0:11:46Come on. Got to get out of this wet clobber.

0:11:46 > 0:11:49We've got another shout, no-one else is available.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52- Look, I've got another uniform here.- Eh?

0:11:52 > 0:11:56OK, can you tell me why you have your own oxygen supply?

0:11:56 > 0:11:57Mesothelioma.

0:11:57 > 0:12:01- I see. Do you know your prognosis? - Given six months.

0:12:02 > 0:12:04- And when was that?- Six months ago.

0:12:07 > 0:12:08HE COUGHS

0:12:08 > 0:12:11Take it easy. Do you mind if I just have a look at that hankie?

0:12:11 > 0:12:13Just let me... Thank you.

0:12:15 > 0:12:19Daniel, were you driving? Daniel, you shouldn't really even be alone,

0:12:19 > 0:12:21you certainly shouldn't be driving.

0:12:21 > 0:12:26I spend all my time getting poked, prodded, having samples taken.

0:12:28 > 0:12:31You can't imagine what it's like to have some time...

0:12:31 > 0:12:33in a car...on my own.

0:12:36 > 0:12:39- How were you feeling before the crash?- Lousy.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42Always lousy.

0:12:43 > 0:12:46You've got some fluid in your lung cavity there.

0:12:46 > 0:12:47It could be pleural effusion.

0:12:47 > 0:12:50It might just be the underlying condition.

0:12:50 > 0:12:51- Chest X-ray?- Er, yes, please.

0:12:51 > 0:12:56We'll decide on further treatment once we confirm that.

0:12:56 > 0:12:57Is there anyone we can call for you?

0:12:58 > 0:13:01Brother. Michael.

0:13:06 > 0:13:07Where is she?

0:13:07 > 0:13:10Well, the bloke who phoned it in said she was by a bonfire.

0:13:10 > 0:13:13Here, hold up. I've got her, there she is.

0:13:15 > 0:13:16Wh-Who's there?

0:13:16 > 0:13:19It's OK, darling. We're here to help.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22I can't... I can't see properly.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24All right, what happened, princess?

0:13:24 > 0:13:26This guy, this animal, tried to...

0:13:28 > 0:13:31- Darling, he didn't try to...?- No.

0:13:31 > 0:13:34OK, let's get you into hospital.

0:13:34 > 0:13:35I don't need hospital.

0:13:35 > 0:13:38Yeah, yeah, you do. It's warm and safe, if nothing else.

0:13:38 > 0:13:43OK, Daniel, there is quite a lot of fluid there. I'd say about a litre.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45We need to get rid of that, so we'll do the pleural tap.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48Thank you, Lenny. Now, what I need you to do is to perch

0:13:48 > 0:13:50- on the side of the bed... - I have to get out today.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53There's not a chance of that, I'm afraid.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55I have to get to court. Giving evidence.

0:13:55 > 0:13:57HE COUGHS

0:14:05 > 0:14:07You'll have to fix me up.

0:14:07 > 0:14:10- You can't take two steps without struggling.- Ready when you are.

0:14:10 > 0:14:14All you have to do is fix me till I make it.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17After...doesn't matter.

0:14:18 > 0:14:20Just, er, sit on the side of the bed there

0:14:20 > 0:14:23- and lean forward onto those, er, pillows.- Gotcha.

0:14:25 > 0:14:28Now, Daniel, this is going to take a little while.

0:14:28 > 0:14:29There's no point rushing it.

0:14:30 > 0:14:34So tell me, what is this evidence you have to give, Daniel?

0:14:34 > 0:14:38Negligence. I can prove negligence.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41Asbestos.

0:14:43 > 0:14:46Right. That's what caused the mesothelioma?

0:14:47 > 0:14:49You should feel a sharp scratch now.

0:14:53 > 0:14:57Well, your employers aren't going to be too happy about that.

0:14:57 > 0:14:59Not employers. Family.

0:15:02 > 0:15:05Father owned the factory.

0:15:05 > 0:15:10People... innocent victims... families...depending on me...

0:15:12 > 0:15:14Need to keep very still.

0:15:14 > 0:15:15Try not to move.

0:15:19 > 0:15:21Stay facing forward. Don't turn around.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23There has to be a way.

0:15:24 > 0:15:28Well, there might be. Now, just turn back, please.

0:15:28 > 0:15:31Thank you, Daniel. Very still.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36I still can't see properly.

0:15:36 > 0:15:39Well, don't panic. It's normally just temporary.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41What's wrong with my eyes?

0:15:41 > 0:15:43Look, what happened in there, princess?

0:15:43 > 0:15:45- Who did this to you? - Did you bring my bag?

0:15:45 > 0:15:48Yeah, it's here. Smells like it's been barbecued.

0:15:48 > 0:15:51Ooh, I'm going to be sick.

0:15:51 > 0:15:56Agh! No! Not on me new boots!

0:15:56 > 0:15:58Be with you in a minute.

0:16:00 > 0:16:02Erm, excuse me.

0:16:06 > 0:16:08OK, very, very still.

0:16:09 > 0:16:13- Lawyer's fixing video link. You sure this'll work?- Let me take that.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15It's unusual, but I've seen it done.

0:16:20 > 0:16:21Lawyers!

0:16:25 > 0:16:27- Whoa!- Lenny!

0:16:28 > 0:16:31I think he's stopped breathing. Respiratory arrest.

0:16:31 > 0:16:34- Get him on his back and bag and mask him.- Intubate?

0:16:34 > 0:16:37- No. Let's start him on the bag and see how he responds.- Stop! Stop!

0:16:37 > 0:16:41- Whoa, whoa, whoa!- Who're you? - Daniel signed an advance directive.

0:16:41 > 0:16:44He doesn't want to suffer any more than he already has.

0:16:44 > 0:16:45He wants to be allowed to die.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55- How long did you lose your eyesight for?- Dunno.

0:16:55 > 0:16:56Till I was in the ambulance.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02There's no sign of any retinal damage. Has this happened before?

0:17:02 > 0:17:04Sometimes. What is it, then?

0:17:07 > 0:17:10- Aren't you going to ask what happened?- Lacerations to your legs.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13You've burnt your hands. Is there anything else you want to tell me?

0:17:13 > 0:17:16Then, no, I'm not going to ask what happened.

0:17:16 > 0:17:18Now, Rebecca...

0:17:18 > 0:17:20- Becca.- Rebecca.- What's your name?

0:17:20 > 0:17:21- Doctor.- Doctor who?

0:17:21 > 0:17:23SHE LAUGHS

0:17:23 > 0:17:25Please do not call me that.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28- Do you want anything for the pain?- Nah!

0:17:28 > 0:17:29BABY CRIES

0:17:31 > 0:17:33Sorry. She won't stop crying.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35I could sedate it. If you were singing to me,

0:17:35 > 0:17:37- sedation's the least I'd expect. - Have you fed her?

0:17:37 > 0:17:41- No, I've tried, but she won't take anything.- Dr Winters?

0:17:41 > 0:17:46- Yeah, all right!- I used to babysit. I'd like her to stay. I love babies.

0:17:46 > 0:17:51You need to take her out of here. Keep her out of my way.

0:17:52 > 0:17:53Ssh, come on.

0:17:54 > 0:17:56You're not smiling at her.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58Here. Here, let me take her.

0:17:59 > 0:18:00Let me.

0:18:10 > 0:18:16Hey! Hey! Yeah, that's the girl.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18- Adam?- Just a second, Lenny.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20The lawyer who wrote it up is very, very good.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23It's cast iron, I promise it's legally binding.

0:18:23 > 0:18:27You've no idea how much he's suffered, these last six months.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29Mesothelioma? I have a good idea.

0:18:29 > 0:18:33He made sure his lawyer and I have separate copies.

0:18:33 > 0:18:34This is what he wants.

0:18:34 > 0:18:38It is a clear, considered statement of the patient's wishes.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40Yeah, then it was. This is now.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47Right, Lenny. Stand down.

0:19:02 > 0:19:09- Erm, Michael, tell me, do you work in the family business?- Yes. And?

0:19:09 > 0:19:12The one he's giving evidence against?

0:19:12 > 0:19:15- What are you getting at?- Adam.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19- He wanted to testify. I can give him that.- What?

0:19:19 > 0:19:21- Give me that bag. - What are you doing?

0:19:21 > 0:19:23- I can save him. - No, no, no. No, you can't.

0:19:23 > 0:19:27- All you can do is drag out his pain, which he doesn't want.- Stop him!

0:19:27 > 0:19:30Lenny, let's lift the bed up, increase the oxygen level.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32Hopefully, we've got rid of enough fluid.

0:19:35 > 0:19:36See if that's done it.

0:19:39 > 0:19:41He's breathing again.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48I've got your X-rays, but I'll send you for a CT

0:19:48 > 0:19:50to make sure that your sight loss isn't linked to

0:19:50 > 0:19:53- brain damage.- Do I look brain damaged?- And then Ophthalmology,

0:19:53 > 0:19:56so they can take a better look at your eyes.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58- Your chariot awaits, madam! - Am I coming back here?

0:19:58 > 0:20:02Yes, I still need to finish treating your burns and other wounds.

0:20:02 > 0:20:05- Cool.- Is there someone we can contact for you? Your mum?

0:20:05 > 0:20:08No. Um, she's dead.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12Anyway, I said, I'm 17, I don't need anyone.

0:20:25 > 0:20:26Er, what are you doing?

0:20:26 > 0:20:29- Sorry, I... - It's none of our business.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31Can we put them back where we found them?

0:20:31 > 0:20:32She really seems to have no-one.

0:20:32 > 0:20:34And she seems to be OK with it.

0:20:34 > 0:20:38Some of us are fine with our own company.

0:20:38 > 0:20:40She was attacked by a man, I mean, what if he was a punter?

0:20:40 > 0:20:42What if it was a random attack?

0:20:42 > 0:20:45Well, it might not have happened if she wasn't on the streets.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47She's 17. What can we do about it?

0:20:59 > 0:21:03Let's get another chest X-ray and repeat the gasses, please.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06You sure about this? The brother's on the warpath.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11Did you not hear the guy? He's desperate to give his evidence.

0:21:11 > 0:21:13That trumps the advance directive, no?

0:21:14 > 0:21:17OK, Daniel.

0:21:17 > 0:21:19Daniel, can you hear me? There you go, there you go.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22- You're back with us.- All he's doing is making Daniel suffer.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27Daniel?

0:21:32 > 0:21:33Mike.

0:21:36 > 0:21:39- Your kids? How are your kids? - They're fine. They're fine.

0:21:41 > 0:21:45Only two things I want.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48Give the evidence, and to be back with the family.

0:21:48 > 0:21:52- Right. He needs to rest. - Will you leave him?

0:21:52 > 0:21:55Or I swear, we'll sue you, we'll sue this hospital.

0:21:57 > 0:21:59Let go, sir, or I will throw you out myself.

0:21:59 > 0:22:02Michael. Come on, let's go.

0:22:02 > 0:22:06- Do you agree with his conduct?- OK, calm down. I need you to stay here

0:22:06 > 0:22:09- till you calm down. - This doctor, he can't do this!

0:22:09 > 0:22:11If there's news, I will come and get you, OK?

0:22:13 > 0:22:14Agh!

0:22:17 > 0:22:19HE ROARS

0:22:24 > 0:22:27- Isn't there anywhere where you can...?- Ssh.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30QUIETER: Isn't there anywhere where you can take her?

0:22:30 > 0:22:33The hospital creche is closed. Anyway, she's quiet, look.

0:22:33 > 0:22:35Yeah, that won't last. Will it?

0:22:35 > 0:22:38- Anyway, you don't look the maternal type.- What does that mean?

0:22:38 > 0:22:40It's perfectly obvious what I meant.

0:22:41 > 0:22:44- Any thoughts on her eye problem? - None. Other than

0:22:44 > 0:22:47- the condition's obviously pre-existing.- So we can rule out

0:22:47 > 0:22:49- the beating as a cause. - I already have.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Then the violence today could have

0:22:51 > 0:22:55- exacerbated the pre-existing condition.- Well, what's your opinion?

0:22:55 > 0:22:56MEGAN CRIES

0:22:57 > 0:22:58Ssh!

0:23:00 > 0:23:03I'm trying to think!

0:23:08 > 0:23:12Hello, Ophthalmology? It's Dr Keogh here in CDU.

0:23:12 > 0:23:15I sent a patient up earlier on, Rebecca...

0:23:15 > 0:23:17No, she hasn't come back down yet.

0:23:17 > 0:23:19In case you hadn't already gathered that.

0:23:21 > 0:23:22No, no, I'll find her myself.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45OK. We're going to need to get this X-rayed.

0:23:45 > 0:23:49You must think I'm an idiot. Look, please, can you talk to that doctor?

0:23:49 > 0:23:51Make him see sense? Please.

0:23:53 > 0:23:57OK, I'll give you something for the pain in a second.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59Just hold that up there for me.

0:23:59 > 0:24:06That's it. You know, I think Dr Trueman admires him.

0:24:07 > 0:24:10This is all about revenge. Dad ran the company then.

0:24:10 > 0:24:12I'm not responsible,

0:24:12 > 0:24:17but I'm going to lose my home, my livelihood, my kids' education.

0:24:17 > 0:24:18What's to admire?

0:24:20 > 0:24:22Is he going to be here a while?

0:24:24 > 0:24:28He's probably going to be in hospital for the rest of his life.

0:24:28 > 0:24:32Then he can't give evidence against us.

0:24:33 > 0:24:37- What? Tell me!- No, no, it's none of my business.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40- Something's going on, isn't it? - No, it's nothing.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43- I've got to talk to my lawyer. - You need an X-ray!

0:24:48 > 0:24:50What did the judge say?

0:24:50 > 0:24:53A video link?! Can he do that?

0:24:53 > 0:24:57Well, you're my lawyer - for once, just give me a straight answer.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59Can anything he says here be used in court?

0:25:03 > 0:25:04Can we stop him?

0:25:23 > 0:25:25- What are you doing? - I dropped something.

0:25:25 > 0:25:29- I was just looking for it.- Right, I need you to come back inside.

0:25:29 > 0:25:30I have your test results.

0:26:01 > 0:26:03- Hey.- Oh, hi.

0:26:03 > 0:26:07- So, what's going on?- Meaning?

0:26:07 > 0:26:10Well, this morning, you were listening to me,

0:26:10 > 0:26:12you were a team player, and now...

0:26:12 > 0:26:14I'm just trying to do the right thing, Kirsty.

0:26:14 > 0:26:16- Really?- Yeah.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18See, I thought the right thing to do would be

0:26:18 > 0:26:20to observe an advance directive...

0:26:20 > 0:26:24Look, the guy told me he wanted to testify. I'm calling it as I see it.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27It's people's lives, Adam.

0:26:27 > 0:26:31You don't have to live with the consequences, but they do.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34You disapprove - message received.

0:26:39 > 0:26:43Your chest X-ray shows minimal smoke damage, but you have a broken rib.

0:26:43 > 0:26:48Ophthalmology can find no clue to your eye problem.

0:26:48 > 0:26:49Your CT scan shows

0:26:49 > 0:26:52no brain damage and no sign of a fracture on your skull.

0:26:52 > 0:26:55Now, I've had a closer look at these X-rays...

0:26:55 > 0:26:58Is that, like, a medical porn thing? "Check the bones on her"?!

0:27:00 > 0:27:03Hmm. You have old injuries on your ribs. Old fractures, lots of them.

0:27:03 > 0:27:04I'm clumsy. Always have been.

0:27:04 > 0:27:07It looks like you've been the victim of repeated violence.

0:27:07 > 0:27:11- That was a question. - I know. I can look after myself.

0:27:11 > 0:27:13I'd like to run some blood tests,

0:27:13 > 0:27:15make sense of your loss of eyesight.

0:27:15 > 0:27:17My eyes are fine now. Forget the nonsense,

0:27:17 > 0:27:20patch me up and do whatever it is that you do.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23Will you be quiet, please? And listen. Once you're discharged,

0:27:23 > 0:27:27straight home, and no more rummaging through bins, because, frankly,

0:27:27 > 0:27:30dressings are dull enough without us having to do them again. Understand me?

0:27:32 > 0:27:35- When I ask you a question, you can respond.- I ain't got a home.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38- Right, that's supposed to make me go all weepy?- No.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40- Is there a hostel? - If there's spaces, maybe.

0:27:40 > 0:27:43Then do that. And don't think, because I asked, that I give a damn.

0:27:43 > 0:27:46At least you're honest. Plenty of guys lie about giving a damn.

0:27:46 > 0:27:49Just keep the dressings clean and dry.

0:27:54 > 0:27:58- I apologise for earlier.- Right.

0:27:58 > 0:28:02Well, your brother's rallied a little. He's still very weak.

0:28:02 > 0:28:03As soon as he's up to it,

0:28:03 > 0:28:05he'll give his testimony on camera.

0:28:05 > 0:28:07He's a brave man.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11Er, I'd like a moment with him, alone.

0:28:11 > 0:28:13So we can say our goodbyes again.

0:28:13 > 0:28:15Yeah, sure. We'll give you some privacy.

0:28:15 > 0:28:18Lenny, could you bring that screen in, please?

0:28:19 > 0:28:21- Can I have some water, please? - Yeah, sure.

0:28:28 > 0:28:30Daniel.

0:28:33 > 0:28:34Just relax.

0:28:38 > 0:28:39David Menton.

0:28:40 > 0:28:45Yeah, I remember David. He died last year.

0:28:45 > 0:28:49I went to visit him...before...

0:28:49 > 0:28:50HE WHEEZES

0:28:56 > 0:28:58I said I... He asked me to fight for his kids.

0:28:58 > 0:29:01They've got nothing, Mike.

0:29:01 > 0:29:04- No money, no dad...- Ssh, ssh.

0:29:05 > 0:29:10I promised, swore I'd fight for them.

0:29:26 > 0:29:31- None of this was to hurt you, Mike.- What?

0:29:31 > 0:29:33I love you.

0:29:37 > 0:29:40I know you're...a good man.

0:29:43 > 0:29:46Just shut up, yeah? Just for once.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54Now drink this. It'll help.

0:30:08 > 0:30:12Thank you, Mike.

0:30:14 > 0:30:16Rest.

0:30:34 > 0:30:35Everything OK here?

0:30:35 > 0:30:36Yeah.

0:30:38 > 0:30:39I'll be here.

0:30:45 > 0:30:49Right, Daniel, the camera's ready, whenever you're up for it.

0:30:51 > 0:30:52Thanks, Lenny.

0:30:56 > 0:31:01Head hurts a bit. Be all right in a minute. Feel a bit sick.

0:31:05 > 0:31:08Lenny, he's tachycardic. Did you repeat those gasses?

0:31:08 > 0:31:10- Yeah, I did what you told me to. - Do it again.

0:31:10 > 0:31:13- BP's crashing.- Let's get him flat.

0:31:13 > 0:31:15Let's get a litre of saline, stat.

0:31:15 > 0:31:18- Has anyone seen that porter?- Big Mac? He's just gone on his break.

0:31:18 > 0:31:22Very helpful, thank you(!) Er, could somebody fetch him, please?

0:31:22 > 0:31:24- Daniel?- Tess, can you get onto that?

0:31:24 > 0:31:26- Daniel, can you hear me?- Problem?

0:31:26 > 0:31:29Mesothelioma complication.

0:31:29 > 0:31:30- Pleural tap?- Done it.

0:31:34 > 0:31:37Someone's stolen all the lunches from the staffroom fridge.

0:31:37 > 0:31:40See, we've got to be vigilant, catch the thief.

0:31:40 > 0:31:42- You're not the thief, are you?- No!

0:31:45 > 0:31:47Hey, what's that?

0:31:56 > 0:31:57Apricot yoghurt.

0:31:57 > 0:31:58DANIEL WHEEZES

0:32:01 > 0:32:04Er, give me a blood sample. You missed something.

0:32:04 > 0:32:07- Like what?- I'll give you five seconds to work it out. Five...

0:32:07 > 0:32:11- If you've have something to say, say it.- Hypotension, tachycardia, confusion?

0:32:11 > 0:32:15Since when did being a clown fall under your job description? I have a patient here.

0:32:15 > 0:32:17- Two, one. Cyanide poisoning.- What?

0:32:17 > 0:32:19That bitter almond smell on his breath.

0:32:19 > 0:32:23- I'm slightly surprised you didn't pick it up.- No, I didn't.

0:32:23 > 0:32:25- Dr Lyons.- I still...

0:32:25 > 0:32:28Can you back me up?

0:32:28 > 0:32:31- Smells like marzipan, yeah. - Thank you. Hydrocyanic acid.

0:32:31 > 0:32:34I thought you might be incompetent, but you're one of the 40%

0:32:34 > 0:32:37of the population who can't smell it. Fortunately, I'm not.

0:32:37 > 0:32:39So, shall we get him the antidote?

0:32:39 > 0:32:41It can be fatal if it isn't cyanide poisoning.

0:32:41 > 0:32:45Yes, but if I'm right and we do nothing, then he dies.

0:32:45 > 0:32:47Your patient, your call.

0:32:55 > 0:32:56Right, let's do it.

0:32:56 > 0:32:59Lenny, get me 300 milligrams of dicobalt edetate. Now, please!

0:33:05 > 0:33:08- You can't go around interrogating our patients!- Problem?

0:33:08 > 0:33:10Someone has stolen the food from the fridge.

0:33:10 > 0:33:14There's a trail of yoghurt all the way to here. So the thief's in CDU.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16Right, I'll call Security.

0:33:16 > 0:33:18Hi, Security? Yes, it's CDU here.

0:33:18 > 0:33:22Erm, I've got a couple of lunatics masquerading as members of staff.

0:33:23 > 0:33:25- Can I have them removed, please? - Come on.

0:33:25 > 0:33:28Hold on, they're leaving. Scrap that. Thank you.

0:33:35 > 0:33:38I really don't want to have to involve Security.

0:33:40 > 0:33:42- Why?- Er, to eat them?

0:33:42 > 0:33:44Can you make yourself useful, please,

0:33:44 > 0:33:48- and return this lot to the fridge, Dr Winters?- How long have you been homeless?

0:33:48 > 0:33:51- About six months.- I caught her scavenging through the bins.

0:33:51 > 0:33:53Sorry, I shouldn't be diagnosing.

0:33:54 > 0:33:57- No, no, no, go on.- OK.

0:34:04 > 0:34:05So, what now?

0:34:07 > 0:34:11Now, we wait, hope the antidote works.

0:34:12 > 0:34:14But we don't take our eye off the ball.

0:34:14 > 0:34:16If it isn't cyanide...

0:34:18 > 0:34:20Come on, Daniel.

0:34:20 > 0:34:23Tell me about your diet. Actually, no, don't.

0:34:23 > 0:34:27- Do you ever eat any of the following - yellow or green vegetables?- No.

0:34:27 > 0:34:31- Fresh fruit? Liver?- No.

0:34:31 > 0:34:33- Milk?- I eat what I can get. Usually leftovers.

0:34:33 > 0:34:36You know, supermarket bins and that.

0:34:37 > 0:34:41What? It's a crime what they throw away these days,

0:34:41 > 0:34:44- it's just past its sell by date.- Malnutrition.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46- You don't get malnutrition in England.- Oh, you do.

0:34:46 > 0:34:49I think Dr Winters is referring to vitamin A deficiency,

0:34:49 > 0:34:52which causes a condition called nyctalopia, or night blindness.

0:34:52 > 0:34:56You can't see a thing in low-light conditions. It's usually temporary,

0:34:56 > 0:34:59but it can get progressively worse, and permanent.

0:35:05 > 0:35:08Come on, Daniel, show us something, anything.

0:35:09 > 0:35:12Hang on. I think we've got him.

0:35:15 > 0:35:17Yeah, his breathing's picking up. Daniel?

0:35:19 > 0:35:26Daniel, can you hear me? Hey! Welcome back. You, er...

0:35:26 > 0:35:29We encountered something we weren't expecting,

0:35:29 > 0:35:30but we've dealt with it now.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33Kirsty, have you got the activated charcoal? Thanks, right.

0:35:33 > 0:35:34You need to drink this for us.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36Do you think you can manage that?

0:35:36 > 0:35:39Thanks, Lenny. Don't worry, this doesn't taste as bad as it looks.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46- OK, I lied.- Cameras?

0:35:46 > 0:35:48They're here. They're waiting for you.

0:35:53 > 0:35:57- Now?- Well, if you feel strong enough.

0:35:57 > 0:35:59Let's do it.

0:36:03 > 0:36:06Guys, your Uncle Daniel...

0:36:06 > 0:36:10He wants to be with his family. Let's just give him that, yeah?

0:36:13 > 0:36:17Just make you a bit more comfortable here, Daniel.

0:36:20 > 0:36:24Better? You have some visitors, Daniel.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36Michael's kids.

0:36:51 > 0:36:53- Daniel.- Mike.

0:36:53 > 0:36:56I brought the kids in to see you.

0:37:18 > 0:37:19Can you hear me?

0:37:19 > 0:37:21Take a sip of this.

0:37:26 > 0:37:30Daniel? You OK?

0:37:30 > 0:37:32You sure?

0:37:32 > 0:37:33All right, just take your time.

0:37:36 > 0:37:38Are you ready, Daniel?

0:37:40 > 0:37:42Can I see the kids?

0:37:46 > 0:37:48Yeah, yeah, of course.

0:37:48 > 0:37:49He wants to see you.

0:37:54 > 0:37:56Sorry.

0:37:57 > 0:37:59I can't.

0:38:07 > 0:38:09- Right, you stay with him. - Where are you going?

0:38:15 > 0:38:17- Hi.- Megan all right?

0:38:17 > 0:38:19- Fine. Chilling out.- Chilling out?

0:38:19 > 0:38:21Yeah, I don't want to disturb her, she's fine.

0:38:21 > 0:38:24- Is that a blood gas?- It's for Dylan. - He's just with a patient,

0:38:24 > 0:38:25but I'll get it to him.

0:38:26 > 0:38:31- She is OK?- Absolutely. I'll go and find Dr Keogh, OK?

0:38:37 > 0:38:41- Erm, thank you, Dylan. - It's Dr Keogh. Why?

0:38:41 > 0:38:45- I got a visit from the fruit fairy. - It wasn't me.

0:38:46 > 0:38:47Right. You don't care.

0:38:49 > 0:38:51Here.

0:38:53 > 0:38:55OK!

0:38:57 > 0:38:58- Cherish her.- Oh, erm...

0:38:58 > 0:39:00Don't ever give her up for anything.

0:39:03 > 0:39:05Your patient's blood gas shows a very negative base excess

0:39:05 > 0:39:08and high lactate, despite normal PaO2.

0:39:08 > 0:39:11I'd say that's close to 100% cyanide poisoning.

0:39:11 > 0:39:13What's the timeframe

0:39:13 > 0:39:16- for cyanide toxicity? - Why'd you need me to tell you?

0:39:16 > 0:39:17I thought you knew everything.

0:39:17 > 0:39:20No, just everything worth knowing.

0:39:20 > 0:39:23- OK, OK, just tell me what I already suspect. - If it's soluble cyanide salts,

0:39:23 > 0:39:29say concentration of one to three mils per litre, minutes, to an hour.

0:39:29 > 0:39:31Well, he was here at least an hour and a half

0:39:31 > 0:39:33before he started showing symptoms.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35So it was a member of our staff?

0:39:35 > 0:39:38Or... No, no! Come on, you're just being selfish now!

0:39:41 > 0:39:45- How's the hand? - Yeah, I could really do with getting it taken care of now.

0:39:45 > 0:39:49- Can I have a word, please? - Yeah, I'm busy, Doctor...- Now.

0:39:51 > 0:39:52Er, would you mind?

0:39:56 > 0:39:58Your brother was poisoned with cyanide.

0:39:58 > 0:40:01He was given it here in this hospital.

0:40:01 > 0:40:05Other than my staff, the only person who had access to him was you.

0:40:05 > 0:40:08- I don't know what you're talking about.- What does your factory make?

0:40:08 > 0:40:09Pesticides. Why?

0:40:09 > 0:40:11You use cyanide as part of the process.

0:40:11 > 0:40:14That proves nothing. You can prove nothing.

0:40:14 > 0:40:18People come and go in this place, you can't say no-one else has access.

0:40:18 > 0:40:20Did you slip it to him in his drink?

0:40:20 > 0:40:23- You asked me for water. - I'm not listening to this.

0:40:23 > 0:40:26Hand this over to the police. Let them deal with it.

0:40:26 > 0:40:30- It's not enough. - Oh, no, no, no. No, you don't.

0:40:30 > 0:40:34Look at Daniel. You are not going to take that away from him.

0:40:34 > 0:40:37It's a lie. If he doesn't give evidence, the brother's won.

0:40:37 > 0:40:40No, no, we have done enough. He's happy.

0:40:40 > 0:40:44In his condition, moments like that are priceless.

0:40:50 > 0:40:54Daniel, there's something I need to talk to you about.

0:40:58 > 0:41:02- He's lying, Daniel.- I can prove there is cyanide in your system.

0:41:02 > 0:41:04Looks like he was desperate to stop you.

0:41:11 > 0:41:13- Wait!- Hold up, guys.

0:41:26 > 0:41:29Hello, how can we help? OK?

0:41:31 > 0:41:34I was just a teenager...

0:41:35 > 0:41:39..in my father's study at home, when he took the call.

0:41:42 > 0:41:43It was one of his suppliers.

0:41:45 > 0:41:47Business wasn't good.

0:41:48 > 0:41:50They talked about the materials.

0:41:52 > 0:41:54Dad said they were asbestos-riddled.

0:41:56 > 0:41:58But he started to talk it down.

0:41:59 > 0:42:04When the supplier offered him a very low price, Dad wasn't sure, but...

0:42:06 > 0:42:07..he thought at that price...

0:42:10 > 0:42:12..he might be able to save the firm.

0:42:12 > 0:42:15HE WHEEZES AND COUGHS

0:42:15 > 0:42:18Do you want me to increase your pain relief?

0:42:24 > 0:42:25HE GASPS

0:42:32 > 0:42:35It was three years before the business started to pick up.

0:42:37 > 0:42:41By which time, three of Dad's employees...

0:42:44 > 0:42:50..had started to get sick. I never went to the factory.

0:42:50 > 0:42:54I never liked it, and it was obvious that...

0:42:55 > 0:42:58..brother Michael would take over the business.

0:43:04 > 0:43:09Dad always used to pick me up from school. I remember thinking...

0:43:11 > 0:43:13.."It must be snowing at the factory."

0:43:15 > 0:43:19He always had snowflakes all over his clothes.

0:43:22 > 0:43:26I used to pick them off and look at them.

0:43:29 > 0:43:33I was amazed they would never melt.

0:43:38 > 0:43:42- She discharged herself? - About ten minutes ago.

0:43:42 > 0:43:46We got her blood results back, confirmed the vitamin A deficiency.

0:43:47 > 0:43:49- It was you, wasn't it?- Sorry?

0:43:49 > 0:43:51Filled her bag with food.

0:43:56 > 0:43:59Oncology are expecting you. Someone will be down in a minute.

0:44:00 > 0:44:01Well done.

0:44:05 > 0:44:07Er, not a good idea.

0:44:09 > 0:44:11And just so you know, the police have been informed.

0:44:12 > 0:44:16We are obliged to hand over all samples, all test results.

0:44:28 > 0:44:30- Good girl!- Everything all right?

0:44:30 > 0:44:33- Ssh.- QUIETER:- Everything's all right?

0:44:33 > 0:44:35- Course it is.- Hope she wasn't too much of a nuisance.

0:44:35 > 0:44:38She can be a bit feisty. I don't know where she gets it from!

0:44:38 > 0:44:41No, not at all. It kind of helped, having her here.

0:44:41 > 0:44:43I hope she hasn't disrupted things.

0:44:43 > 0:44:45No. You done, then?

0:44:45 > 0:44:47Unless you need me to do anything else.

0:44:47 > 0:44:51No, no. You punched your weight. Buy her a lemonade or something.

0:44:53 > 0:44:56Blimey. Well done! You busy tomorrow?

0:44:56 > 0:44:57Very. Yeah, yeah.

0:45:25 > 0:45:29Please, not here. Can we do this at the station?

0:45:40 > 0:45:41Ahem.

0:45:46 > 0:45:49I'm fairly sure I told you to find somewhere clean and safe to sleep.

0:45:49 > 0:45:51- Hey, you.- Never mind "Hey, you".

0:45:53 > 0:45:54- Well?- Well, what?

0:45:54 > 0:45:57- Well, did you find somewhere? - What do you care?

0:46:00 > 0:46:02What's your name, huh, girl?

0:46:02 > 0:46:04Dervla. Don't let her lick your dressings.

0:46:05 > 0:46:07Find somewhere. I mean it.

0:46:08 > 0:46:10Ooh, that's a serious look.

0:46:11 > 0:46:13Bye.

0:46:23 > 0:46:25SHE KNOCKS ON THE DOOR

0:46:25 > 0:46:27Yup?

0:46:27 > 0:46:28Hi.

0:46:30 > 0:46:34Erm, the oncologist's reviewing Daniel now.

0:46:34 > 0:46:38He's comfortable, but a day or two at most, they said.

0:46:43 > 0:46:46Well, he's down there on his own now.

0:46:47 > 0:46:49Still think you did the right thing?

0:46:50 > 0:46:54- I think I did my job.- No, our job was to treat him. Nothing else.

0:46:54 > 0:46:56His brother tried to poison him.

0:46:56 > 0:46:59- He had a right to know. - It wasn't your call, Adam.

0:47:01 > 0:47:04You know, you can't behave like

0:47:04 > 0:47:06you're the only one who knows what's right.

0:47:06 > 0:47:10I behave in the best interests of the patient. Always.

0:47:10 > 0:47:12Well, you cut out the team today.

0:47:12 > 0:47:16Sometimes you act like the rest of us don't count.

0:47:16 > 0:47:19It was just a decision that had to be made.

0:47:19 > 0:47:22Now, me and team are about to go and get a bite to eat.

0:47:22 > 0:47:23You're welcome to join us.

0:47:39 > 0:47:41Come on, Derv.

0:47:42 > 0:47:45Dervla, darling, come on.

0:47:46 > 0:47:48Come on.

0:47:49 > 0:47:50Dervla, come on.

0:47:54 > 0:47:56Come on!

0:48:01 > 0:48:05You've got to be kidding me. You think I'm going to take you in?

0:48:05 > 0:48:07You don't know anything about me.

0:48:07 > 0:48:09- I could be a murderer, or anything. - Are you?

0:48:09 > 0:48:12- Only when somebody really annoys me. - The thing is,

0:48:12 > 0:48:15it's people who want to help that I don't trust.

0:48:15 > 0:48:17That's just warped.

0:48:21 > 0:48:22Come on.

0:48:32 > 0:48:34DERVLA WHINES

0:48:40 > 0:48:41Oh, shut up.
