0:00:04 > 0:00:07I've been called to a MPTS hearing.

0:00:07 > 0:00:09I'm going to have to lessen my dose.

0:00:09 > 0:00:14If I don't, how can I ever be the father Ollie deserves?

0:00:14 > 0:00:16It came, then?

0:00:16 > 0:00:21Good. I must remember to get you a leaving card.

0:00:21 > 0:00:24Doctors like you eventually cost patients their lives,

0:00:24 > 0:00:28but come the tribunal, you're finished.

0:00:54 > 0:00:56CLATTERING

0:00:56 > 0:00:57Grace!

0:00:59 > 0:01:01Why didn't you call me?

0:01:01 > 0:01:05I'm sorry. I thought I could do it on my own.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08Oh, sweetheart. Don't be sorry.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13It's all going to be OK.

0:01:52 > 0:01:57Gracie, you're supposed to be eating breakfast, darling. Grace?

0:02:03 > 0:02:08Anne and Sophie on the ski trip. Alpe D'Huez.

0:02:11 > 0:02:13Alpe D'Huez is so overrated.

0:02:17 > 0:02:19Tell you what,

0:02:19 > 0:02:24next year you and I will be tearing down the slopes of Aspen, Colorado.

0:02:26 > 0:02:30Sweetheart, remember what I said - you are your only limit.

0:02:30 > 0:02:34Anyway, look at how far you've come, all right?

0:02:34 > 0:02:36You can do it.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38Um...right.

0:02:41 > 0:02:44Stop it. It's only for today.

0:02:44 > 0:02:45Do I really have to go?

0:02:45 > 0:02:48- Yes, you do. - DOORBELL RINGS

0:02:48 > 0:02:50It can't be the taxi. It's too early.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56Sorry, you're just...

0:02:58 > 0:02:59Morning.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05Oi! There you are. That'll wake you up.

0:03:05 > 0:03:06I love you so much right now.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09Lily, Ethan, can I ask you to look after Resus for me, please?

0:03:09 > 0:03:12And Alicia, take over in Cubicles. We'll be back by lunch.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15- Of course, it's the hearing today, isn't it?- It is, yeah.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18Come on, don't be stupid - of course we're picking you up.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20Just leaving. All right, bye.

0:03:20 > 0:03:21How's Dr Gardner?

0:03:21 > 0:03:23Yeah, she's holding up. Kind of.

0:03:23 > 0:03:25It's all totally unnecessary. It's just shenanigans.

0:03:25 > 0:03:26She'll be fine.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29Yeah. I sincerely hope so.

0:03:31 > 0:03:34This is nuts, this hearing, isn't it?

0:03:34 > 0:03:37We're doctors. We need to be held accountable.

0:03:37 > 0:03:41Yes, one adult and one ten-year-old for kick boxing.

0:03:41 > 0:03:42Kick boxing?

0:03:42 > 0:03:44Later.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49Yes, yes, thank you. Thank you.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55Kick boxing, yoga, family boot camp?

0:03:55 > 0:03:59Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.

0:03:59 > 0:04:02No need to tell me.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04Maybe you're overdoing it.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07Do you not think you should speak to someone about reducing your lithium?

0:04:07 > 0:04:10And say what? "Look, I've got a real problem, Doc.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13"I'd really like to get fit and spend time with my son"?

0:04:13 > 0:04:14I'm just worried for you.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16Really? For me?

0:04:16 > 0:04:18Robyn, you're projecting.

0:04:18 > 0:04:21You're worrying about others when you're terrified yourself,

0:04:21 > 0:04:24which is totally understandable. Motherhood is a daunting prospect.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27And these certainly won't be helping, either.

0:04:27 > 0:04:32Sugar and caffeine make you far more susceptible to stress.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34No, no, no, no!

0:04:34 > 0:04:35Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!

0:04:37 > 0:04:41What you need is to face your fears.

0:04:41 > 0:04:44It can be very liberating.

0:04:44 > 0:04:48Ah! I think I know just the thing.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50Won't be long.

0:04:55 > 0:04:56Oh, it was epic.

0:04:56 > 0:05:00A really epic night. I wish you were there, mate.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03Ha! Tell me about it, barely keeping it together.

0:05:03 > 0:05:06Just taking little bro to school. Come on, Elliot!

0:05:06 > 0:05:09Shift your backside!

0:05:09 > 0:05:13Cool, give us half an hour. Here, I'll carry it.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16- No! Get off!- All right, puss-puss. Keep your hair on.

0:05:16 > 0:05:17Don't call me that.

0:05:21 > 0:05:23Ellie? You OK? Mate, your nose.

0:05:25 > 0:05:28Whoa! Hey.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30There's blood in this.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38Perfect timing as usual.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40You could have least let me know.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42You would have tried to put me off.

0:05:42 > 0:05:46Especially today. Come on, Connie.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49The whole hospital is talking about you commandeering the GMC.

0:05:49 > 0:05:53You can't commandeer the GMC. They obviously think there's a case.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56Word is you've tried to make it your personal crusade.

0:05:58 > 0:06:00Crusade?

0:06:00 > 0:06:01People talk, Connie.

0:06:03 > 0:06:07Well, if "people" had a daughter with brain damage who can barely

0:06:07 > 0:06:09get herself to the toilet without falling over,

0:06:09 > 0:06:10perhaps they would rethink things,

0:06:10 > 0:06:13so excuse me if I try and prevent this from happening

0:06:13 > 0:06:15to someone else because that woman...

0:06:17 > 0:06:19Gracie, I'm sorry, sweetheart...

0:06:19 > 0:06:22I didn't...

0:06:22 > 0:06:24DOORBELL RINGS

0:06:24 > 0:06:26Taxi's here.

0:06:28 > 0:06:29Are you serious?

0:06:29 > 0:06:30What?

0:06:30 > 0:06:32You're showing her off!

0:06:32 > 0:06:34I can use my crutches, Mum.

0:06:34 > 0:06:36No, it's fine. It's going to be a long day.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39Let's parade her around in a wheelchair for maximum effect.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Don't you dare!

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Come on, sweetheart.

0:06:45 > 0:06:48OK, then. Let's do it together.

0:06:50 > 0:06:51I'll come with you.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01"Still not managed to get Charlie in his togs,

0:07:01 > 0:07:03"but when I do, I promise to take a picture.

0:07:03 > 0:07:05"Love, Duffy."

0:07:06 > 0:07:09Also got this for Dr Gardner.

0:07:09 > 0:07:12Hm. Better take that back to Reception.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14She might not be back at all, you know.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16I hear those tribunals can be...

0:07:16 > 0:07:19C'mon, guys. I mean, surely it's just a formality?

0:07:19 > 0:07:22I still can't believe Mrs Beauchamp is doing this to her.

0:07:22 > 0:07:23Really? I can.

0:07:23 > 0:07:28Anyway, concentrate. Blue labels - surgery notes, green labels -

0:07:28 > 0:07:32existing admissions and yellow labels - recent discharges.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34It works a treat.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37- Don't thank me, thank David - it was his idea.- David's?

0:07:37 > 0:07:42Yeah, he's been really productive lately. Ah, the man himself.

0:07:42 > 0:07:43I was just saying you are on top form.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46Well, I aim to please.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48Oh, yeah? What you up to now?

0:07:48 > 0:07:50This.

0:07:51 > 0:07:52What is that?

0:07:52 > 0:07:54This is baby Alice.

0:07:54 > 0:07:58She cries, she wees, she sleeps, just like the real thing.

0:07:58 > 0:07:59Jo at Maternity said as it was for you,

0:07:59 > 0:08:01she could spare it for the whole day.

0:08:01 > 0:08:03Don't they give them to teenage girls?

0:08:03 > 0:08:05Yeah, to put them off.

0:08:05 > 0:08:08Yes, thank you, both.

0:08:08 > 0:08:12A day with baby Alice - face your fears head on.

0:08:12 > 0:08:13It's OK to be scared.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19I'm not scared. I'm not scared.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28- There we go. - She looks tired, Connie.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31Well, she's been working very hard. We both have.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33- Which is why I think this is totally the wrong...- Please don't start.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35- Mrs Beauchamp!- Oh, good morning.

0:08:35 > 0:08:39- Good morning.- Zahira Tahar, GMC representative.

0:08:39 > 0:08:40Sam Strachan. Grace's father.

0:08:40 > 0:08:45Nice to meet you. Sorry, morning sustenance. How are you, Grace?

0:08:47 > 0:08:49As well as can be expected.

0:08:49 > 0:08:50Right.

0:08:52 > 0:08:53So, this is how it's going to work.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55I present the case, enclose statements.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57They'll have read those already.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00Then witnesses, then the main complainant - you.

0:09:00 > 0:09:01Good news is we have O'Shaughnessy

0:09:01 > 0:09:03as chairman so he won't drag his feet.

0:09:03 > 0:09:04Gabriel O'Shaughnessy?

0:09:04 > 0:09:05Kings, London?

0:09:05 > 0:09:07Yes. Have you worked with him?

0:09:07 > 0:09:11No. No. But I certainly know of him.

0:09:11 > 0:09:12I'll see you inside.

0:09:12 > 0:09:13OK. Thank you.

0:09:16 > 0:09:17Dr Gardner.

0:09:18 > 0:09:19Mrs Beauchamp.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32Let's go.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35CRYING

0:09:35 > 0:09:38Come on, good girl.

0:09:38 > 0:09:39Come on, baby.

0:09:41 > 0:09:44Give me a break!

0:09:44 > 0:09:49Think, think, think... Sing! OK! OK, what song...

0:09:49 > 0:09:54Um... # I live my day as if it was the last

0:09:54 > 0:09:57# Live my day as if there was no past

0:09:57 > 0:10:00# Doin' it all night, all summer

0:10:00 > 0:10:03# Doin' it the way I want to

0:10:03 > 0:10:07# Yeah I'm a dance my heart out till the dawn

0:10:07 > 0:10:11# But I won't be done when morning comes

0:10:11 > 0:10:14# Doin' it all night, all summer. #

0:10:14 > 0:10:16Robyn, need you in there - an actual child.

0:10:25 > 0:10:27You, stay.

0:10:32 > 0:10:35Right, this is Elliot Allcott, aged ten.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37He's got severe epistaxis, found blood in his vomit,

0:10:37 > 0:10:39which he potentially swallowed.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42GCS 15, pulse 100, BP 110 over 70.

0:10:42 > 0:10:44The bleeding stopped in the ambo,

0:10:44 > 0:10:46but he won't let us examine him any further.

0:10:46 > 0:10:49Paeds Resus, please. Elliot, I'm Dr Chao.

0:10:50 > 0:10:52Please, I want to go home.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54C'mon, mate. Calm down.

0:10:54 > 0:10:55This is brother Jack, 16.

0:10:55 > 0:10:58Apparently, his dad's not around and his mum's away.

0:10:58 > 0:11:00OK. Hop onto the bed for me.

0:11:03 > 0:11:04Good lad.

0:11:04 > 0:11:07- I'm just going to have a look up your nose...- No! Get off!

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Ellie, get a grip! He freaks at everything.

0:11:09 > 0:11:10No, I don't.

0:11:10 > 0:11:12It's OK, don't worry. I'm a total wuss!

0:11:12 > 0:11:16Yeah. And this one looks really scary, but she's dead soft.

0:11:16 > 0:11:19- Hilarious. Run along now. - You're so soft! You're so soft!- OK!

0:11:20 > 0:11:22Right, has this happened before?

0:11:22 > 0:11:24No. No, never.

0:11:24 > 0:11:26I was dropping him off at school when his nose just went,

0:11:26 > 0:11:28then he chucked up all over the place.

0:11:28 > 0:11:30Has he had a fall recently or a blow to the nose?

0:11:30 > 0:11:34Don't think so, not that I know of. Elliot?

0:11:34 > 0:11:36No, I... I don't know.

0:11:36 > 0:11:37How do you mean? You'd know if you did!

0:11:37 > 0:11:39I'm sorry, I...

0:11:40 > 0:11:42OK, don't worry. It's fine.

0:11:42 > 0:11:44Any allergies? Medical conditions we need to know about?

0:11:44 > 0:11:46No, no, nothing.

0:11:46 > 0:11:47Has your mum been informed?

0:11:47 > 0:11:52She's-she's in an all-day interview in Warwickshire. She went yesterday.

0:11:52 > 0:11:54Uh-oh.

0:11:54 > 0:11:56- Here, let me.- No! No, get off.

0:11:56 > 0:11:58Ellie! Just let them help you.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01OK, Elliot, how about if you do it and I'll show you how?

0:12:01 > 0:12:04What you do is just pinch that bit, under the bone, that soft bit there.

0:12:04 > 0:12:07OK? Keep pinching there. Good boy.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10Right, now don't tip your head back cos otherwise you're going to

0:12:10 > 0:12:12end up swallowing it all, all right?

0:12:12 > 0:12:15I'm going to put this there and if you need to spit, you can.

0:12:15 > 0:12:17OK?

0:12:17 > 0:12:19I've got this. Why don't you go?

0:12:19 > 0:12:21- I know you've got a million and one patients.- Thank you.

0:12:21 > 0:12:22Can you try the mother, please?

0:12:22 > 0:12:24I'm going to try to get hold of their GP

0:12:24 > 0:12:25and see if there's any history.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27- Let me know?- Hm-mm.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29I'm really sorry.

0:12:29 > 0:12:33Hey. Don't be silly. Told you, you just stick with me, kid.

0:12:36 > 0:12:39I thought this was not supposed to be a trial.

0:12:39 > 0:12:41I did say you should have someone representing you.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44I think it just makes you look like you have something to hide.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46I'm entirely capable of explaining myself.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48It's just that being the main complainant,

0:12:48 > 0:12:50I thought it might be beneficial to start off with me.

0:12:50 > 0:12:52I can make a very succinct case.

0:12:52 > 0:12:53What's your view on observers?

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Sorry?

0:12:55 > 0:12:56In theatre when you operate.

0:12:56 > 0:12:57No...

0:12:57 > 0:12:59We'll do it my way.

0:12:59 > 0:13:00OK.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03Ah. Miss Zafar, thank you for coming.

0:13:04 > 0:13:08Just to let you know, I do have a shift this afternoon.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10No worries. You're up first.

0:13:10 > 0:13:11Thank you.

0:13:17 > 0:13:20Are you supposed to be the cavalry?

0:13:20 > 0:13:21I didn't want to come.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24I thought you were all great that day.

0:13:24 > 0:13:28Be a lot of fun, isn't it, all this?

0:13:33 > 0:13:35How are you doing, firecracker?

0:13:35 > 0:13:36You all right?

0:13:38 > 0:13:40Sam.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49I guess he had to go, too.

0:13:52 > 0:13:56- Here we go.- Goodness me.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58They brought O'Shaughnessy out of hibernation.

0:13:58 > 0:14:02- Hm?- Oh, he's a pioneering cardiothoracic surgeon.

0:14:02 > 0:14:05He gave a visiting lecture when I was at med school.

0:14:05 > 0:14:07The men shook, the women swooned.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09Morning, everyone.

0:14:09 > 0:14:13Opening proceedings in the case of the medical practitioners tribunal

0:14:13 > 0:14:19brought against Dr L Gardner. MBChB, 1991,

0:14:19 > 0:14:21University of Exeter,

0:14:21 > 0:14:28GMC reference 21343398.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30See. What did I tell you? It's stopped.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33You scared the freakin' life out of me, mate.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35It was like a horror film.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38Right, I'm going to get you into a gown.

0:14:38 > 0:14:42Epic. Posting this. You're going to get so many likes!

0:14:42 > 0:14:44OK. Once we've got you changed,

0:14:44 > 0:14:46I'm going to get Dr Chao in to have another look.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49But I'm OK now. I just want to go.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51We need to know what caused it.

0:14:51 > 0:14:53Oi, has someone been picking on you at school again?

0:14:53 > 0:14:55- Punched you or...- No!

0:14:55 > 0:14:56He gets a bit hassled at school

0:14:56 > 0:14:59cos he's a bit more sensitive than the rest.

0:14:59 > 0:15:02He's no good at footy, so... Who is it?

0:15:02 > 0:15:04- Is it that prat Jaden?- No!

0:15:04 > 0:15:05Cos I will go sort him out right now.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07Nothing happened at school!

0:15:07 > 0:15:08But if it has...

0:15:08 > 0:15:10Nothing has! I swear.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13I fell. I did fall.

0:15:13 > 0:15:14When?

0:15:14 > 0:15:16Yesterday. At night.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19I got up to go to the loo and fell.

0:15:19 > 0:15:20But I was there.

0:15:20 > 0:15:22I called you but you were busy.

0:15:22 > 0:15:23Busy?

0:15:23 > 0:15:24Yeah, with your party.

0:15:24 > 0:15:27The music was really loud,

0:15:27 > 0:15:30and you were all shouting and laughing. I did try.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33It was just a few mates, honest.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35OK. Can I have a word, please?

0:15:37 > 0:15:40So it isn't just the Grace Beauchamp case which brings us here.

0:15:40 > 0:15:43We'll go into that in some detail.

0:15:43 > 0:15:46It's also recent events that Dr Gardner was involved in,

0:15:46 > 0:15:48as witnessed in statements 1A, 1B, 1C...

0:15:48 > 0:15:51Why hasn't she got a legal representation?

0:15:51 > 0:15:53I guess she underestimated what she's up against.

0:15:53 > 0:15:56..which clearly demonstrate impairment of fitness to practise.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59I'd like to call our first witness, if I may.

0:15:59 > 0:16:01Agency Staff Nurse Amira Zafar.

0:16:11 > 0:16:14But I swear we didn't even have the music on that loud.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17I don't get it. And there weren't that many people.

0:16:17 > 0:16:20And there weren't that many drinks, either?

0:16:20 > 0:16:21Cos you'd be surprised, after a few,

0:16:21 > 0:16:23the music tends to go up a notch.

0:16:23 > 0:16:25I am 16. I'm allowed a drink.

0:16:25 > 0:16:26Yeah - under supervision!

0:16:26 > 0:16:29Look, it's not that I don't know what it's like,

0:16:29 > 0:16:31but your mum left you in charge.

0:16:31 > 0:16:33Did she even know you were having a party?

0:16:33 > 0:16:35But it was an accident. It could have happened any time.

0:16:35 > 0:16:37But it didn't. It happened on your watch.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40- What do you think she's going to say?- You don't have to tell her.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42Anything could have happened to him.

0:16:42 > 0:16:45- We can't hide it from her! - Please, just let me do it.

0:16:45 > 0:16:47She's had it really tough since Dad left,

0:16:47 > 0:16:51and she was really excited about this interview, and now I...

0:16:51 > 0:16:52now I wrecked it for her.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55I know I messed up. I just want to tell her myself.

0:16:59 > 0:17:01Thank you. You're a star.

0:17:05 > 0:17:08So, at that point, you came back and told Dr Gardner

0:17:08 > 0:17:10that CT were ready for Grace?

0:17:10 > 0:17:13- Yes.- Did you say anything else?

0:17:15 > 0:17:19I asked her if she wanted me to call an anaesthetist.

0:17:19 > 0:17:22So you actually prompted her. And her reply?

0:17:22 > 0:17:26She said that Grace was supporting her airway

0:17:26 > 0:17:29and didn't need to be intubated.

0:17:29 > 0:17:31Right.

0:17:31 > 0:17:34Next thing, Grace Beauchamp deteriorated,

0:17:34 > 0:17:37vomited in the scanner and had to be rushed back to Resus,

0:17:37 > 0:17:38where she was attended by yourself,

0:17:38 > 0:17:43Cardiothoracic Consultant Jac Naylor, Dr Dylan Keogh,

0:17:43 > 0:17:44Sister Lisa Duffin

0:17:44 > 0:17:47and Senior Charge Nurse Charlie Fairhead - is that right?

0:17:47 > 0:17:48Yes.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51How did Dr Gardner react on seeing Grace?

0:17:51 > 0:17:53She proceeded to intubate her.

0:17:53 > 0:17:54In how many attempts?

0:17:56 > 0:17:58It was in fact two.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00How did she seem at the time?

0:18:00 > 0:18:03Well, obviously under pressure. It had been a terrible day.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06There had been an explosion, a helicopter crashed...

0:18:06 > 0:18:09What were the reactions of the other staff?

0:18:10 > 0:18:12I know this was some time ago,

0:18:12 > 0:18:16but I can't stress the importance of this more strongly.

0:18:16 > 0:18:21Did any of the other clinicians ask why Grace wasn't intubated?

0:18:25 > 0:18:27Dr Keogh.

0:18:28 > 0:18:31Dr Gardner said that Grace was supporting her airway

0:18:31 > 0:18:34at the time so there was no need.

0:18:34 > 0:18:35And his response?

0:18:35 > 0:18:41He said... "Well, she's certainly not supporting her airway now."

0:18:49 > 0:18:51If he had a fall, that could explain the nosebleed.

0:18:51 > 0:18:54- He still seems really nervous, though.- Hm.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56We've got three people waiting on discharge.

0:18:56 > 0:18:57Coming.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00Let's move him to Cubicles, take obs and bloods and monitor him.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02So far, so good.

0:19:04 > 0:19:06Is Jack annoyed with me?

0:19:06 > 0:19:08Of course not.

0:19:08 > 0:19:13He probably feels rotten that you hurt yourself and he wasn't there.

0:19:13 > 0:19:14I got him into trouble, haven't I?

0:19:14 > 0:19:17You told the truth. That's the right thing to do.

0:19:19 > 0:19:21That is the truth, isn't?

0:19:21 > 0:19:23Course.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Elliot?

0:19:26 > 0:19:27- Where's my backpack?- Whi...

0:19:27 > 0:19:30My backpack! One I take to school. Does Jack have it?

0:19:30 > 0:19:32I don't know. I haven't seen...

0:19:32 > 0:19:34It's black and green, got a football on it. I need it.

0:19:34 > 0:19:38It's got all my stuff - my keys, my iPod. Mum will kill me!

0:19:38 > 0:19:42OK, don't upset yourself, all right? You'll set your nose off.

0:19:43 > 0:19:45I'll go and ask the paramedics, OK?

0:19:46 > 0:19:49Ah, David, any news?

0:19:49 > 0:19:50No, none.

0:19:50 > 0:19:53Dr Chao, I'm telling you the colour coding's been so successful

0:19:53 > 0:19:58I'm thinking of re-organising the pharmacy lists that way.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01What? I'm just saying!

0:20:02 > 0:20:04Congratulations, by the way.

0:20:04 > 0:20:08David tells me she's got a right pair of lungs on her.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10The baby. Don't tell me you've ditched her already?

0:20:10 > 0:20:13Ha-ha, funny. Elliot Allcott's lost his backpack.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15Can you have a check for me, please?

0:20:15 > 0:20:16- Yeah.- He's got a point.

0:20:16 > 0:20:18When was the last time you checked on her?

0:20:18 > 0:20:20I'm going, now.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23Good luck, by the way. We're all rooting for you!

0:20:23 > 0:20:25I bet you'd lock yours in a cupboard, wouldn't you?

0:20:25 > 0:20:27Sparkling wit.

0:20:27 > 0:20:30Hey, listen, I'm seeing Gem next week, so thank you.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34Ooh, Max, the kid in Paeds Resus - Cubicles, please.

0:20:34 > 0:20:37Yeah, sure. Listen, go and see Noel.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39There's something you might want to come in on.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05CRYING

0:21:05 > 0:21:09So you were clearly taken aback at Dr Gardner's answer?

0:21:09 > 0:21:11Well, no. I wouldn't say that.

0:21:11 > 0:21:14We were all under a lot of pressure that day.

0:21:14 > 0:21:16There was a major incident.

0:21:16 > 0:21:17Granted.

0:21:17 > 0:21:20But it does seem like you didn't find Dr Gardner's explanation

0:21:20 > 0:21:21satisfactory at the time?

0:21:21 > 0:21:24- She's not looking good. I'm taking her out.- Just hold on.

0:21:24 > 0:21:25It's a grey area.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28Dr Keogh, given the same presentation,

0:21:28 > 0:21:30would you have intubated?

0:21:33 > 0:21:34I...

0:21:34 > 0:21:35I don't believe you.

0:21:35 > 0:21:37Yes or no, Dr Keogh?

0:21:42 > 0:21:44Yes.

0:21:44 > 0:21:45Thank you.

0:21:46 > 0:21:50I'd like to proceed to the complainant, Mrs Connie Beauchamp.

0:21:55 > 0:22:00# Doin' it all night, all summer Doin' it the way I want to. #

0:22:00 > 0:22:03Oh, c'mon on! Please! Shh, shh, shh.

0:22:05 > 0:22:07Jez called, he found a rucksack?

0:22:07 > 0:22:11That thing is really loud. It might need changing.

0:22:15 > 0:22:19Can you describe, as Grace's mother, what her daily challenges are?

0:22:19 > 0:22:23Well, her motor skills are significantly impaired.

0:22:23 > 0:22:27She needs near-constant assistance even with the smallest of tasks.

0:22:27 > 0:22:32For example, yesterday she fell on her way to the bathroom.

0:22:32 > 0:22:37She has to endure a gruelling daily exercise routine,

0:22:37 > 0:22:40not to mention the emotional and psychological damage -

0:22:40 > 0:22:44missing out on her education, her social life.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46And you had no idea this was all preventable?

0:22:46 > 0:22:48No. None whatsoever,

0:22:48 > 0:22:51not until I requested, repeatedly requested,

0:22:51 > 0:22:56the notes did I realise there was a case of gross medical negligence.

0:22:56 > 0:23:01And can I just clarify that I'm here not solely as a parent,

0:23:01 > 0:23:04but also as an ED consultant and as such

0:23:04 > 0:23:07recognise when a colleague is just not capable.

0:23:07 > 0:23:08Are you referring to...

0:23:08 > 0:23:10Dr Gardner may be a competent physician

0:23:10 > 0:23:13when things are going well, but she cannot handle the pressure,

0:23:13 > 0:23:16and that makes her a liability.

0:23:16 > 0:23:19From the very first day she arrived, late,

0:23:19 > 0:23:21following an accident en-route,

0:23:21 > 0:23:24to the latest fiasco with a patient...

0:23:24 > 0:23:27If I may just stop your flow there for a moment, Mrs Beauchamp.

0:23:27 > 0:23:31You are, I presume, referring to the incident with Jamison Francis?

0:23:31 > 0:23:33Yes, I am.

0:23:33 > 0:23:34Hm.

0:23:34 > 0:23:40It is not my place as the tribunal chair to interject.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43In fact, it is strictly forbidden.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47However, I feel compelled.

0:23:47 > 0:23:52You have been a consultant for how many years?

0:23:52 > 0:23:54More than I care count.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56Not an ED consultant, though?

0:23:56 > 0:24:00- Well...- In that time, I'm sure you must have been on the receiving end

0:24:00 > 0:24:06of quite a lot of - excuse my language - crap from patients?

0:24:06 > 0:24:08Yes, I have.

0:24:08 > 0:24:13Hm. Not all of it, I hope, for justified reasons?

0:24:13 > 0:24:15Well...

0:24:15 > 0:24:18You ever reacted back?

0:24:23 > 0:24:25I may have.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28But I have never confronted a colleague inebriated

0:24:28 > 0:24:30and embarrassed myself.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33Are you saying Dr Gardner...

0:24:33 > 0:24:38Cornered me at a wedding reception and threatened me, with I quote,

0:24:38 > 0:24:43"I'm ready for a fight" and "watch this space."

0:24:43 > 0:24:44Is the girl not well?

0:24:45 > 0:24:47No, she isn't.

0:24:47 > 0:24:49Let's break.

0:24:49 > 0:24:52I imagine you'd want to be with your daughter.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58Hang on a minute - how come Max got three to one

0:24:58 > 0:24:59and now it's two to one?

0:24:59 > 0:25:02Sorry, mate, situation is fluid - the odds changed from this morning.

0:25:02 > 0:25:04I'll take it. They're still good.

0:25:04 > 0:25:06Poor Robyn. This is cruel, this.

0:25:07 > 0:25:09I mean, I'll put two quid on.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11Fiver for me. She'll do it.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15Guys. Guys.

0:25:16 > 0:25:20- Hey.- Hey. I found it. It got kicked under the seat.

0:25:20 > 0:25:23Ah. Thanks. What's going on?

0:25:23 > 0:25:26Oh, we're just checking about Dr Gardner, but no news.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32Hey, it's all in good fun, you know.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36I've had enough. She's not well.

0:25:36 > 0:25:38Well, she's clearly better than she was.

0:25:38 > 0:25:41How can anyone get better in this atmosphere?

0:25:41 > 0:25:44You clearly care more about this tribunal than anything else.

0:25:44 > 0:25:45Do you think this is good for her,

0:25:45 > 0:25:48seeing her father tear strips out of her mother?

0:25:48 > 0:25:49Come on, Connie, you know

0:25:49 > 0:25:51in the corner of your mind you've gone too far.

0:25:51 > 0:25:55You're just lashing out. It's happened. It's done.

0:25:55 > 0:25:59You trying to screw over a colleague isn't going to help things.

0:25:59 > 0:26:02- This is making you look really bad. - Oh, I'll be the judge of that.

0:26:02 > 0:26:03Can I go to the toilet?

0:26:05 > 0:26:07Yes, darling, of course.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12See? See how she's progressed?

0:26:12 > 0:26:14Yes, of course I can see that.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17Well, where's your support? Not there.

0:26:17 > 0:26:18That's nothing new, is it?

0:26:18 > 0:26:20Dr Gardner.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22I'm sorry, this is really unfair.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24It's OK, really.

0:26:28 > 0:26:30You need to be strong.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35Hm. They put words in your mouth, don't they?

0:26:35 > 0:26:37They certainly do.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41Well, I dare say it won't be any consolation,

0:26:41 > 0:26:44but I do know how it feels.

0:26:45 > 0:26:47Thanks, Dylan.

0:26:47 > 0:26:51We're going to head back to base, but just text me, OK?

0:26:51 > 0:26:52Come here.

0:26:55 > 0:26:57Don't be a hero.

0:27:01 > 0:27:04RINGING

0:27:10 > 0:27:12Hi, lovely.

0:27:12 > 0:27:13No, no, no, no, it's fine.

0:27:15 > 0:27:17This is the one, right?

0:27:17 > 0:27:19How's Alice? Putting on weight?

0:27:19 > 0:27:20Sleeping through? Only joking.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23Right, let's just check that everything's in here.

0:27:23 > 0:27:25No, I'll do it!

0:27:28 > 0:27:30Wow! Blue hair!

0:27:30 > 0:27:33They didn't make them like that in my day.

0:27:33 > 0:27:38She's not mine. They're...Macy's. She goes to my school.

0:27:38 > 0:27:41She asked me to look after them for her.

0:27:41 > 0:27:42OK.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45Yeah, so I'm just looking after them.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47Can I have my bag, please?

0:27:50 > 0:27:53Elliot, are you OK? You're looking a bit peaky.

0:27:55 > 0:27:56You are a bit hot.

0:27:58 > 0:28:00Look what I got for you, bro - your fave.

0:28:00 > 0:28:02Old Granny here likes her tea and biscuits.

0:28:02 > 0:28:05Right, no arguments now, come on.

0:28:08 > 0:28:1138.7. You are running a fever.

0:28:11 > 0:28:12A fever?

0:28:12 > 0:28:14Yeah. I'm going to go and get the doctor.

0:28:32 > 0:28:35Argh!

0:28:41 > 0:28:45A temperature suggests an infection. Has he been ill before?

0:28:45 > 0:28:46Well, no, he hasn't said.

0:28:46 > 0:28:49I just want to go home. Why can't I go home?

0:28:49 > 0:28:51We're just trying to help you, sweetie.

0:28:51 > 0:28:54I'd really like to examine your nose, Elliot.

0:28:54 > 0:28:55I'm sorry, mate. You've had it your way,

0:28:55 > 0:28:58- now you've got to let the doc have a look.- I just want to go home!

0:28:58 > 0:29:00It won't take a second.

0:29:00 > 0:29:01Elliot, cut it out!

0:29:01 > 0:29:03Just...do it.

0:29:03 > 0:29:04OK?

0:29:05 > 0:29:07Good boy.

0:29:10 > 0:29:12Yup, definitely an infection.

0:29:12 > 0:29:13Full of gunk.

0:29:13 > 0:29:15Where's Mum? I want my mum.

0:29:15 > 0:29:17Yes, where's Mum?

0:29:20 > 0:29:22I...

0:29:22 > 0:29:23What's going on?

0:29:25 > 0:29:28No, no, it's just like I said. It's ticking boxes.

0:29:31 > 0:29:34Yeah. Yeah, OK, I'll speak to you later. Bye.

0:29:45 > 0:29:47Grace!

0:29:47 > 0:29:48Grace?! Help!

0:29:48 > 0:29:51I need some help in here!

0:29:51 > 0:29:53It's OK, Grace, I've got you.

0:29:57 > 0:29:59Try and stay nice and still for me.

0:30:01 > 0:30:03No, no, no, no, no!

0:30:03 > 0:30:05Somebody help me!

0:30:09 > 0:30:11Dial 999, NOW!

0:30:13 > 0:30:15Grace! Gra...

0:30:15 > 0:30:16Let me get this straight -

0:30:16 > 0:30:18you took his word that he was going to call his mum?

0:30:18 > 0:30:20Yeah! He's a good kid.

0:30:20 > 0:30:23He's a teenager who was left in charge and messed up.

0:30:23 > 0:30:25I don't believe you sometimes.

0:30:25 > 0:30:27They're kids. It was a party - these things just happen.

0:30:27 > 0:30:29Yes! Kids! We're the adults,

0:30:29 > 0:30:32and now he's ill and his mum's not even on her way.

0:30:32 > 0:30:33How would you feel?

0:30:33 > 0:30:37Right. 500 milligrams of paracetamol and let's start him

0:30:37 > 0:30:40on oral broad spectrum antibiotics, and take half hourly obs.

0:30:40 > 0:30:43You, with me. Let's call your mum.

0:30:49 > 0:30:50She's in the ladies' toilet.

0:30:56 > 0:30:58Would you please give me some room?

0:31:00 > 0:31:03She had a fit, punctured her carotid artery,

0:31:03 > 0:31:04ambulance is on its way.

0:31:04 > 0:31:06Wh-wh-what happened?

0:31:06 > 0:31:09Looks like she broke the mirror. We need to stop the haemorrhage.

0:31:09 > 0:31:11Excuse me! Grace!

0:31:11 > 0:31:13- What the hell happened? - She had a fit.

0:31:13 > 0:31:14A fit? I told you, didn't I?

0:31:14 > 0:31:16Not now.

0:31:16 > 0:31:18Go outside - find me a medical bag.

0:31:18 > 0:31:20This building is full of medics! I need a Foley catheter.

0:31:20 > 0:31:22- Catheter?- I need it now! Go!

0:31:24 > 0:31:25Hold her head.

0:31:25 > 0:31:27We need to stop the bleeding.

0:31:27 > 0:31:29Connie!

0:31:37 > 0:31:39Here you go.

0:31:39 > 0:31:41Your mum will be here soon.

0:31:42 > 0:31:46He's going to hate me now, Jack. She's going to hit the roof.

0:31:46 > 0:31:48She's going to ground him for a month.

0:31:48 > 0:31:51Well, at least now we know it's not his fault.

0:31:51 > 0:31:53The nose bleed.

0:31:53 > 0:31:55But-but I did fall. I'm not lying!

0:31:55 > 0:31:58Well, you don't get an infection like that from a fall.

0:31:58 > 0:32:02I can't remember anything else! I don't know!

0:32:02 > 0:32:04Oh, hang on.

0:32:04 > 0:32:06Don't sniff it up!

0:32:06 > 0:32:08Elliot! Elliot?!

0:32:08 > 0:32:10OK, I've left a message. What's happening?

0:32:10 > 0:32:12He's choking! He can't breathe!

0:32:12 > 0:32:13Elliot?

0:32:14 > 0:32:17Right, I'm just going to have a look. Open your mouth.

0:32:17 > 0:32:19Come on, just open up for me. Yup, OK.

0:32:19 > 0:32:21Let's get him to Resus, please.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23I'm here, baby. I'm here.

0:32:23 > 0:32:24All right, try not to move.

0:32:24 > 0:32:27- Where are they? - Probably in traffic. Catheter?

0:32:29 > 0:32:32- OK.- I'm going to go and see where they are.

0:32:32 > 0:32:33Hold her head.

0:32:33 > 0:32:36- What are you doing?!- I'm going to tamponade the wound with it.

0:32:36 > 0:32:39- No.- Just maintain pressure on the wound. I need to insert the tip.

0:32:39 > 0:32:40No, no, you're going to kill her!

0:32:40 > 0:32:44Trust me. For once in your life, do as you're told!

0:32:51 > 0:32:53It's OK. It's going to be OK.

0:32:53 > 0:32:56I need a laryngoscope and Magill forceps, please.

0:32:56 > 0:32:58He's losing consciousness.

0:32:58 > 0:33:00Words can be easily misconstrued.

0:33:00 > 0:33:03Unfortunately, I think I may have got her into

0:33:03 > 0:33:05a little bit of hot water.

0:33:05 > 0:33:07She might be able to claw it back.

0:33:07 > 0:33:11Jacob! Sam Strachan just called. Grace has been hurt.

0:33:11 > 0:33:14There's an ambulance on its way there.

0:33:14 > 0:33:17OK, that's as far as it'll go. Syringe? Come on!

0:33:18 > 0:33:22OK, this is going to work. This is going to work.

0:33:24 > 0:33:26Yep, it's working. I need to clamp it.

0:33:26 > 0:33:29See if there are any artery clamps in the bag?

0:33:31 > 0:33:32Connie!

0:33:33 > 0:33:35Right, she's in here. This way.

0:33:35 > 0:33:38Not a minute too soon, lads.

0:33:38 > 0:33:39Right, what have we got?

0:33:39 > 0:33:41This is Grace Beauchamp, 11 years old,

0:33:41 > 0:33:44witnessed tonic-clonic seizures with a neck wound caused by broken glass.

0:33:44 > 0:33:46Uncontrolled arterial haemorrhage

0:33:46 > 0:33:47from the wound despite direct pressure,

0:33:47 > 0:33:50so inserted a Foley catheter to tamponade the bleeding.

0:33:50 > 0:33:53Fitting has now stopped. Airway appears clear.

0:33:53 > 0:33:57OK. Mrs Beauchamp, let me take over there. There we go.

0:33:58 > 0:34:01- Jez?- Yeah?- I want oxygen and a line in quick, please.

0:34:01 > 0:34:02OK, I'm on it.

0:34:06 > 0:34:08Hold his head for me, please.

0:34:08 > 0:34:09Laryngoscope.

0:34:12 > 0:34:14OK.

0:34:14 > 0:34:15I can see something.

0:34:16 > 0:34:18It's stuck. OK.

0:34:22 > 0:34:24OK.

0:34:24 > 0:34:26Got it.

0:34:26 > 0:34:28- He's not breathing!- Suction, please.

0:34:30 > 0:34:31HE GASPS

0:34:31 > 0:34:33Oh, good. Good. He's responding.

0:34:33 > 0:34:35We got it just in time.

0:34:35 > 0:34:36What is it?

0:34:36 > 0:34:38All right? OK.

0:34:41 > 0:34:42It looks like a shoe?

0:34:44 > 0:34:45A doll's shoe.

0:34:47 > 0:34:5111-year-old female, Grace Beauchamp, witnessed tonic-clonic seizures

0:34:51 > 0:34:54with penetrating neck wound, which is now under control.

0:34:54 > 0:34:58She was unconscious on arrival, with significant blood loss.

0:34:58 > 0:35:00It's OK, Gracie, we got you.

0:35:00 > 0:35:04Resp rate 28, pulse 140 and thready, BP 90/60.

0:35:04 > 0:35:07She required boluses of IV saline en-route to maintain her BP.

0:35:07 > 0:35:09No further fitting.

0:35:09 > 0:35:13OK, let's get another line in then, please, and cross-match four units.

0:35:13 > 0:35:16We'll stand by with some tranexamic acid.

0:35:16 > 0:35:17Can we do a venous blood gas as well?

0:35:17 > 0:35:19Did she have a fit, then?

0:35:19 > 0:35:23Yeah. Smashed a mirror with her crutches, and then fell.

0:35:23 > 0:35:26OK. Let's query head injury then, folks.

0:35:26 > 0:35:29Cross on three, when we're ready. One, two, three.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33Grace? Grace, can you hear me?

0:35:33 > 0:35:35OK, she's not supporting her own airway, is she?

0:35:35 > 0:35:40So, let's intubate before the CT. Stand by for an RSI.

0:35:40 > 0:35:43Can we get 2mgs of lorazepam, please,

0:35:43 > 0:35:46and somebody notify the vascular surgeons.

0:35:47 > 0:35:49A doll's shoe?

0:35:49 > 0:35:52Yes. It must have been stuck up his nasal cavity for some time,

0:35:52 > 0:35:56causing infection and bleeding, and swallowing the blood made you vomit.

0:35:56 > 0:35:58And just then, you inhaled it and choked on it.

0:35:58 > 0:36:00It is really small, you know.

0:36:00 > 0:36:03You could have easily inhaled it by mistake, I suppose.

0:36:03 > 0:36:06Sorry, Dr Chao, I've got Mrs Allcott on the phone for you.

0:36:06 > 0:36:10OK. You're not getting out of this. C'mon.

0:36:13 > 0:36:16The dolls aren't Macy's, are they?

0:36:17 > 0:36:22Sweetheart, did you feel you had to keep it a secret?

0:36:22 > 0:36:26Mum knows, but she promised she wouldn't tell anyone,

0:36:26 > 0:36:30but a while ago Jack came into the room and I panicked.

0:36:30 > 0:36:33I just...

0:36:33 > 0:36:35Shoved it up your nose?

0:36:35 > 0:36:39Then I tried to get it out but I think I was just pushing it in more.

0:36:39 > 0:36:41Why didn't you tell us?

0:36:41 > 0:36:43Cos Jack, he'll hate me.

0:36:43 > 0:36:44No, he won't.

0:36:44 > 0:36:47He will! I'm nothing like him.

0:36:47 > 0:36:49I'm not sporty. I'm not clever.

0:36:49 > 0:36:51Hey, join the club!

0:36:51 > 0:36:54Do you know what my gran used to say?

0:36:54 > 0:36:56You are who you are,

0:36:56 > 0:37:00and you have to accept it because everybody else is taken.

0:37:01 > 0:37:06The thing is, the more you hide it, the worse it's going to get.

0:37:06 > 0:37:09He won't mind. He loves you.

0:37:11 > 0:37:15She didn't take it too badly. The doc's having a word.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17But you, the minute you're better,

0:37:17 > 0:37:19I'm going to whoop your backside, you monkey.

0:37:19 > 0:37:21Getting me into trouble like this with your,

0:37:21 > 0:37:24"I fell and you didn't hear." What was all that about?

0:37:24 > 0:37:26- Because I...- What?

0:37:26 > 0:37:29Cos you didn't want to say you had a doll's shoe stuck up your nose?

0:37:29 > 0:37:31Fair enough. I wouldn't, either.

0:37:31 > 0:37:32The thing is, Jack...

0:37:35 > 0:37:39..I play with them. Dolls.

0:37:39 > 0:37:40Course you do.

0:37:40 > 0:37:44Don't take a genius to work out you was hiding something in that bag.

0:37:44 > 0:37:46I looked inside.

0:37:46 > 0:37:48Nothing gets past the Jackmeister.

0:37:48 > 0:37:50You give me another scare like this

0:37:50 > 0:37:52and I'll shove the other one up there myself.

0:37:52 > 0:37:53Come here.

0:38:02 > 0:38:04OK, um...

0:38:04 > 0:38:08The good news is that the scan shows there's no new head injuries.

0:38:08 > 0:38:10I do think you might want to prepare yourselves

0:38:10 > 0:38:13for the possibility that Grace may have developed epilepsy.

0:38:13 > 0:38:19As you know, it's a possible delayed outcome of the original head injury.

0:38:19 > 0:38:22Was she complaining of headaches today or looking peaky?

0:38:22 > 0:38:25She certainly wasn't 100%, no.

0:38:25 > 0:38:26Watch your back.

0:38:26 > 0:38:31Well, we've sent the scan to neurology and the vascular surgeons

0:38:31 > 0:38:33are taking her up to theatre now.

0:38:33 > 0:38:37I'm confident because of the timely and excellent care

0:38:37 > 0:38:40she received at the scene that the damage was minimal,

0:38:40 > 0:38:42but I'll keep you updated, obviously.

0:38:46 > 0:38:48Sam.

0:38:51 > 0:38:55I begged you. I warned you.

0:38:57 > 0:39:00But there's no getting through to you, is there?

0:39:00 > 0:39:04You're so blinkered.

0:39:04 > 0:39:06So caught up in your own bitterness.

0:39:10 > 0:39:13It's because of you she's back in that theatre, no-one else.

0:39:13 > 0:39:14I don't want to think

0:39:14 > 0:39:18what would have happened if Dr Gardner hadn't found her.

0:39:20 > 0:39:24And I'll tell you one thing for sure - when she wakes up...

0:39:26 > 0:39:30..things are going to change, and I mean change.

0:39:41 > 0:39:43Connie.

0:39:46 > 0:39:48Come on.

0:39:48 > 0:39:50You need some air.

0:40:03 > 0:40:05How's Grace?

0:40:05 > 0:40:08She has just gone up to theatre. She'll be OK.

0:40:11 > 0:40:14Robyn? Mrs Allcott should be here in a couple of hours.

0:40:14 > 0:40:16I'm sorry. You were right.

0:40:16 > 0:40:18We're not here to be their friends. We have a responsibility.

0:40:18 > 0:40:21WAILING

0:40:21 > 0:40:23Is that coming from in here?

0:40:24 > 0:40:27Sorry, Robyn, my phone went off.

0:40:27 > 0:40:29Anyone hurt?

0:40:29 > 0:40:32No, I think we'll survive. Is this yours?

0:40:32 > 0:40:34Turn it off, please.

0:40:34 > 0:40:36You win, fair and square.

0:40:36 > 0:40:38Thank you!

0:40:38 > 0:40:40Wait? What?

0:40:41 > 0:40:45Well, there may have been a little bet going on.

0:40:48 > 0:40:49Robyn...

0:40:52 > 0:40:54Thanks a lot. Cheers, mate.

0:41:07 > 0:41:10I shouldn't have taken her there today.

0:41:15 > 0:41:17Maybe today just shouldn't have happened.

0:41:21 > 0:41:25Looking for someone to blame is only going to make everything worse.

0:41:25 > 0:41:29The only person at fault in this whole thing is Stephanie Sims.

0:41:30 > 0:41:33She was the one that ran you off the road.

0:41:33 > 0:41:36I tried going after her and look where that got me.

0:41:36 > 0:41:38Nowhere.

0:41:43 > 0:41:45She's a good doctor, Elle.

0:41:45 > 0:41:47And this is going to destroy her.

0:41:49 > 0:41:51That's not right, and you know it.

0:41:52 > 0:41:55And trying to make this a personal thing between you and her,

0:41:55 > 0:41:58like a crusade... Though, it's not too late.

0:42:00 > 0:42:04You can go back to the hearing, you can say... What?

0:42:06 > 0:42:10You're the one that called Sam, aren't you?

0:42:11 > 0:42:13What else was I supposed to do?

0:42:16 > 0:42:17Connie!

0:42:23 > 0:42:25CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:42:25 > 0:42:27Touch my coffee and you're a dead man.

0:42:27 > 0:42:29I was only trying to help, you know?

0:42:30 > 0:42:33Say what you want, but a day with baby Alice...

0:42:33 > 0:42:37I never thought I'd say this, but you are talking way too much.

0:42:38 > 0:42:39The bet...

0:42:41 > 0:42:43It was just a bit of fun.

0:42:43 > 0:42:46Of course, and I'd understand, wouldn't I?

0:42:46 > 0:42:49Cos I'm the fun one, the silly one, the one who has to be

0:42:49 > 0:42:53everyone's friend, the one who can't even look after a fake baby.

0:42:54 > 0:42:57What chance have I got with the real thing?

0:43:01 > 0:43:03She just took off, not in a good place.

0:43:03 > 0:43:05And Connie in a bad place,

0:43:05 > 0:43:09when she feels like she's got nothing to lose - she's lethal.

0:43:27 > 0:43:29Mrs Beauchamp.

0:43:35 > 0:43:36How's your daughter?

0:43:38 > 0:43:39She's in theatre.

0:43:41 > 0:43:42And you're here?

0:43:44 > 0:43:46Her father's with her.

0:43:48 > 0:43:49I see.

0:43:51 > 0:43:56So you've, um...come to finish what you started.

0:44:00 > 0:44:01Deliver the killer blow.

0:44:03 > 0:44:05- ELEVATOR:- 'Doors opening.'

0:44:20 > 0:44:23You're kicking me in the face, and it's really not nice.

0:44:23 > 0:44:26I just need your help. Oh, no!

0:44:26 > 0:44:28Get the stiletto out of my eye!

0:44:28 > 0:44:29Give me back my power-pack.

0:44:29 > 0:44:34Right. Let's try to resume from where we left off.

0:44:36 > 0:44:39Actually...

0:44:40 > 0:44:42..let's not resume.

0:44:45 > 0:44:49The reason I'm here, the only reason I'm here today,

0:44:49 > 0:44:51is my daughter Grace.

0:44:54 > 0:44:56She is in theatre as we speak...

0:44:58 > 0:45:00..having her carotid artery put back together,

0:45:00 > 0:45:05a perilous enough procedure,

0:45:05 > 0:45:08and one that could have been worse

0:45:08 > 0:45:11if it were not for Dr Gardner.

0:45:12 > 0:45:18I blamed her for taking my little girl away from me...

0:45:18 > 0:45:24and I now acknowledge that was motivated by grief...and anger.

0:45:26 > 0:45:27But today...

0:45:31 > 0:45:34..she gave my daughter back to me.

0:45:36 > 0:45:38I was wrong about her.

0:45:47 > 0:45:49Peace offering?

0:45:54 > 0:45:56But there's also this.

0:45:58 > 0:46:01The guys felt really bad so they put all the sweepstake money

0:46:01 > 0:46:03together to get you a little present.

0:46:03 > 0:46:04A spa day?

0:46:06 > 0:46:09I know you're scared...

0:46:09 > 0:46:11but you don't have to do this on your own.

0:46:11 > 0:46:13We're all here to help.

0:46:14 > 0:46:17I could say the same to you, you know.

0:46:17 > 0:46:18Sure.

0:46:18 > 0:46:22Sure? So, you'll see someone? About your medication?

0:46:22 > 0:46:24Yeah, yeah, yeah.

0:46:24 > 0:46:27Yes. I'll make sure I talk to someone.

0:46:27 > 0:46:30Ah. Are we forgiven?

0:46:30 > 0:46:32This is very expensive.

0:46:32 > 0:46:35Just how many other people were in on this?

0:46:35 > 0:46:37Actually, I don't want to know.

0:46:37 > 0:46:39Best policy!

0:46:39 > 0:46:40She what?

0:46:40 > 0:46:44Elle just called me. Apparently, she's retracted it all.

0:46:44 > 0:46:46They've adjourned for today,

0:46:46 > 0:46:50but word is it'll probably all come to nothing now.

0:46:50 > 0:46:53Well, that calls for a celebration drink.

0:46:53 > 0:46:55Connie Beauchamp. Never a dull moment.

0:46:55 > 0:46:57No. Never.

0:46:59 > 0:47:02Good luck, Mrs Beauchamp. I hope Grace gets better soon.

0:47:02 > 0:47:03Thank you.

0:47:05 > 0:47:08Dr Gardner?

0:47:14 > 0:47:16How's Grace?

0:47:19 > 0:47:23She's in recovery. I'm on my way to see her now.

0:47:24 > 0:47:28Please make no mistake - I would have intubated.
