0:00:07 > 0:00:09THEY SCREAM

0:00:09 > 0:00:13Our daughter is not communicating. I have every right to be concerned.

0:00:13 > 0:00:14Why don't you move in with me?

0:00:14 > 0:00:17Well, I could stay a couple of nights.

0:00:17 > 0:00:20I'd like to request a visiting order, please.

0:01:24 > 0:01:25What do you want, Connie?

0:01:26 > 0:01:30I want you to plead guilty. Spare Grace from the trial.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hang on a minute.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10I don't get this. Where are you going?

0:02:10 > 0:02:11Anywhere else.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14What? And you took my stuff! Why?

0:02:14 > 0:02:17What choice did I have? I can't do this.

0:02:17 > 0:02:19I can't go back with Mum. I don't have any money.

0:02:19 > 0:02:22I can't get a job. I've got NOTHING, Iain.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24You're not even listening to me!

0:02:24 > 0:02:26All right, lads? Yeah, leave it. It's mine.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28It's for my Bat Bin.

0:02:28 > 0:02:30See you later.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33I can't believe you've still got that!

0:02:33 > 0:02:35What do you look like?

0:02:35 > 0:02:38I look like a bloke that's just been robbed by his own sister.

0:02:40 > 0:02:42So what happens now?

0:02:42 > 0:02:43Right.

0:02:43 > 0:02:46We go home and try and work out what's going on with you.

0:02:46 > 0:02:48Home? That isn't my home.

0:02:48 > 0:02:49Yes, it is. Walk!

0:02:53 > 0:02:55It was an accident.

0:02:56 > 0:02:57No, it wasn't.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03You might only get three years.

0:03:03 > 0:03:04Oh, right.

0:03:05 > 0:03:08And miss Carmel growing up.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11You almost killed my daughter. Do you ever think about that?

0:03:11 > 0:03:12Because you wouldn't stop.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15You wouldn't be reasonable.

0:03:18 > 0:03:22I will do everything I can to keep you from your daughter.

0:03:22 > 0:03:24No! No!

0:03:24 > 0:03:25No!

0:03:25 > 0:03:28SHE SOBS

0:03:43 > 0:03:45It's OK. I'm here. Thank you.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48Grace, stop this! Please, Grace.

0:03:48 > 0:03:50Please. Enough.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56- A.- A?

0:03:56 > 0:03:57First thing on the list.

0:03:57 > 0:04:00You steal from me again and I'm phoning the police.

0:04:00 > 0:04:02- Tough love, is it?- B.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04We need to make you a plan for the future.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07Why would I stay here?

0:04:07 > 0:04:10You're not exactly overburdened with choices, are you?

0:04:10 > 0:04:13So you're only doing all this because you feel sorry for me?

0:04:16 > 0:04:17C?

0:04:19 > 0:04:21Let's "C" if we can get you a job.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50Last week it was your grandmother's funeral, again!

0:04:50 > 0:04:52That's the third time the poor old dear's died.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55And don't ask for a reference unless you think

0:04:55 > 0:04:58"slow, late and largely useless" will look good on your CV.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00She got told, mate!

0:05:00 > 0:05:03- You good to take this through? - Yeah, yeah, yeah.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08- Patsy, isn't it? - Yes.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10I couldn't help overhearing...

0:05:10 > 0:05:13Yes, you could, but I'll let that slip.

0:05:13 > 0:05:14Right. Are you OK?

0:05:14 > 0:05:16Perfectly fine, thanks.

0:05:16 > 0:05:19Right. Am I right in thinking there's a vacancy?

0:05:19 > 0:05:22You thinking of moonlighting?

0:05:22 > 0:05:25No, actually, it's for a bright, keen, young woman.

0:05:25 > 0:05:26My sister.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29Central office are doing the interviews.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32Central office? Come on, Patsy, we couldn't just...?

0:05:34 > 0:05:35No.

0:05:37 > 0:05:38OK.

0:05:39 > 0:05:42As soon as you can. Great! Sorted.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Thanks! That's a real help.

0:05:44 > 0:05:46Pleasure.

0:05:46 > 0:05:47Sam? What are you doing down here?

0:05:47 > 0:05:49We needed a couple of geriatric beds.

0:05:49 > 0:05:51I know you tried yesterday, and they said...

0:05:51 > 0:05:52They said yes to Sam.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55Well, yes to the Medical Director.

0:05:55 > 0:05:58The new Medical Director. I take it you knew?

0:05:58 > 0:06:00Yes.

0:06:00 > 0:06:01Connie, could I have a word?

0:06:04 > 0:06:07A little incident with Grace this morning.

0:06:08 > 0:06:09A protest.

0:06:09 > 0:06:11- She's not hurt, is she?- She's fine.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13I got to her in time. But she's miserable here.

0:06:13 > 0:06:14She needs to go home.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17But we still don't know what's happened to her speech.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19I know, and I'm on it. I'm making the calls.

0:06:19 > 0:06:22But she needs you, her mum, to take her home today.

0:06:24 > 0:06:25OK?

0:06:25 > 0:06:27- Thank you.- Yes, thank you very much.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30Did you know he did a trauma fellowship in New York?

0:06:30 > 0:06:33I think we may have got lucky there. Connie.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39Iain! We've got to go. Got a call to the women's prison.

0:06:47 > 0:06:48Finally!

0:06:48 > 0:06:50Oh, don't start.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52Why so late?

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Had to fire her.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56That's a shame.

0:06:56 > 0:06:59Not really. She's a liability.

0:07:06 > 0:07:07There you go, boy.

0:07:15 > 0:07:16There you go.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22I didn't ask you to make lunch, Nick.

0:07:22 > 0:07:24But thank you.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55Fair play. You're getting better.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59Oh...

0:07:59 > 0:08:00You OK?

0:08:00 > 0:08:02Slept funny. Hardly got a wink.

0:08:05 > 0:08:06Let's see what I can do, eh?

0:08:07 > 0:08:09I should be getting back to work.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14Aye, of course. Whatever.

0:08:14 > 0:08:15Come on, Bruce! Come on.

0:08:15 > 0:08:19Let's go for a walk. Some fresh air, yeah? Come on!

0:08:19 > 0:08:20I'll come.

0:08:22 > 0:08:24Are you sure?

0:08:24 > 0:08:26Nothing more pressing?

0:08:26 > 0:08:28I said I'd come. Don't start an argument.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31Just let me get changed.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48OK, this is Stephanie Sims, 37 years old.

0:08:48 > 0:08:51She's just another patient, guys, all right?

0:08:51 > 0:08:54She was found unconscious in her cell, suspected overdose.

0:08:54 > 0:08:57GCS 3 on arrival.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00She's had 800mg of naloxone,

0:09:00 > 0:09:01GCS is now 12,

0:09:01 > 0:09:05BP 90/60, pulse 70, sats 96%.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07OK, opiate OD. Anything else?

0:09:07 > 0:09:09Could have been anything.

0:09:12 > 0:09:13It was Steph.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16GCS 3 on scene. Overdose.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19Looks like the real deal.

0:09:29 > 0:09:30Finally she feels some remorse.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38Watch your step on this sand, love, it's tricky.

0:09:40 > 0:09:41You all right?

0:09:41 > 0:09:42Yeah?

0:09:44 > 0:09:47It's probably just the fresh air - you're not used to it.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49There we go. Go on! That's it.

0:09:51 > 0:09:52Look at him, eh?

0:09:52 > 0:09:54You know, he's so much better on the new medication.

0:09:56 > 0:09:58It's changed.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00Did all this used to be here?

0:10:00 > 0:10:02It's quite nice now.

0:10:03 > 0:10:07You see? You should come with us more often.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12I just don't want you pawing at me, OK?

0:10:14 > 0:10:16I thought we agreed not to argue.

0:10:16 > 0:10:17A kiss is not an argument!

0:10:19 > 0:10:22Look... Patsy!

0:10:22 > 0:10:23Patsy!

0:10:24 > 0:10:25Patsy!

0:10:29 > 0:10:30Patsy?

0:10:31 > 0:10:33Patsy, hold on, love.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35Just hold on.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38Give me your hand.

0:10:38 > 0:10:39Give me your hand!

0:10:39 > 0:10:41I've got you. It's OK. I've got you. SHE SCREAMS

0:10:41 > 0:10:43Just hold still, love. Just hold still, Patsy.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46- Get me out! Get me out! - I've got you, love. I've got you.

0:10:46 > 0:10:49- I'm going to pull you out. - No! No! No! My leg's stuck!

0:10:49 > 0:10:51All right. Just keep calm.

0:10:51 > 0:10:54SHE WHIMPERS Just stay calm, right?

0:10:54 > 0:10:55Just stay calm, I'm here.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57SHE SOBS

0:10:59 > 0:11:01It's all right. It's all right, sweetheart.

0:11:01 > 0:11:03Come on, come on, come on.

0:11:03 > 0:11:07I've got you. You're safe, all right?

0:11:07 > 0:11:09You're safe.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12All right. Let's see what we're dealing with here.

0:11:12 > 0:11:15Jacob, can I get another 400 of naloxone IV, please?

0:11:20 > 0:11:21Jacob?

0:11:23 > 0:11:24I'm not doing this.

0:11:26 > 0:11:28Wouldn't be appropriate.

0:11:28 > 0:11:29Thank you.

0:11:31 > 0:11:32Need an extra pair of hands?

0:11:32 > 0:11:34Oh, yes, I do now.

0:11:34 > 0:11:39OK, Louise, can I get bloods, LFTs, U&Es and clotting?

0:11:39 > 0:11:41Paracetamol and salicylate levels?

0:11:41 > 0:11:44Yeah, that would be just dandy, thank you.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46Oh, and a venous blood gas as soon as.

0:11:46 > 0:11:48- Did she vomit?- A little.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50- Chest X-ray?- Yes.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53Those big, brown eyes staring up at you, Charlie? Careful.

0:11:55 > 0:12:00- Pupils size three, equal and reactive now, thankfully.- OK.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05She's playing us.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08Do you know what I think?

0:12:08 > 0:12:10I think grief and anger have affected her judgement.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16Mrs Beauchamp, I could do with your advice.

0:12:16 > 0:12:18I'm concerned this is more than an opiate overdose.

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Excuse me, I don't think it would be appropriate for

0:12:20 > 0:12:23Mrs Beauchamp to deal with this patient. Connie?

0:12:34 > 0:12:36Great. So who can work on her, then?

0:12:36 > 0:12:39We need some help here! DOG BARKS

0:12:41 > 0:12:43Hello!

0:12:43 > 0:12:44Anybody hear me?

0:12:44 > 0:12:46PATSY SOBS

0:12:46 > 0:12:51Listen, I'm going to try to release your leg, all right? OK?

0:12:51 > 0:12:52SHE SCREAMS

0:12:52 > 0:12:55OK, OK! It's all right. Sorry.

0:12:58 > 0:13:00It's all right, sweetheart.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13Hello? Ambulance.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15SHE WHIMPERS

0:13:15 > 0:13:18It's OK, sweetheart. Come on, come on. That's it.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20Hello, yes? We need some help.

0:13:20 > 0:13:24It's my wife. We're on Holden Forest Walk.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28Yeah, yeah, we're about... Yeah, ten... Oh.

0:13:35 > 0:13:36Don't let me go.

0:13:38 > 0:13:39Never.

0:13:41 > 0:13:42How are you? Are you all right?

0:13:44 > 0:13:46Yeah. I'm absolutely fine, Charlie.

0:13:46 > 0:13:47Good man.

0:13:49 > 0:13:51Bloods, clotting and LFTs normal.

0:13:51 > 0:13:53Negative paracetamol and salicylate.

0:13:53 > 0:13:56Hmm. Small mercies, but OK.

0:13:57 > 0:14:00Is that absolutely necessary?

0:14:00 > 0:14:01After last time, yes.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03SHE VOMITS

0:14:04 > 0:14:06Steph, do you know what you took?

0:14:06 > 0:14:09If you could just describe them.

0:14:09 > 0:14:11It's the only way we can help with the pain.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15So it's not just an opiate overdose, then.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17Yeah, OK...

0:14:17 > 0:14:18No idea.

0:14:20 > 0:14:22Steph, just tell us.

0:14:29 > 0:14:30I'm cold.

0:14:32 > 0:14:34Hello?

0:14:34 > 0:14:35We're here!

0:14:36 > 0:14:38Hello, mate!

0:14:45 > 0:14:46Go on, then - ladies first.

0:14:49 > 0:14:52- How did you find us? - Mobile phone masts.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54My name's Jez. I'm going to drag her out now, OK?

0:14:54 > 0:14:56No, no, no! No, you'll hurt her.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58Her leg's trapped under there somewhere.

0:14:58 > 0:14:59I don't know what it is. I couldn't reach it.

0:14:59 > 0:15:00DOG BARKS

0:15:00 > 0:15:02I'm going to have to go in.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15We're going to get you out of here.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17- Stay calm, Patsy, OK?- OK?

0:15:19 > 0:15:20I'm just trying to untangle it.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27I'm going to have to go under.

0:15:29 > 0:15:30Don't worry, sweetheart.

0:15:30 > 0:15:31We're going to get you out of here, all right?

0:15:31 > 0:15:34It's OK, we'll get you out. Just relax. Stay calm.

0:16:02 > 0:16:03There we go!

0:16:08 > 0:16:09- Can I have some?- Yeah.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30Anything I can get for you?

0:16:36 > 0:16:37Nothing?

0:16:40 > 0:16:41My daughter.

0:16:43 > 0:16:44You might ask Connie.

0:16:46 > 0:16:48She's no fan of protocol.

0:16:52 > 0:16:56I understand you want to see Carmel, but this could be

0:16:56 > 0:16:57very upsetting for her.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02You haven't asked me why I did it.

0:17:04 > 0:17:05Because you wanted to die.

0:17:10 > 0:17:12Charlie, Cal - I hear you need some help.

0:17:12 > 0:17:13Yes.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17What did she take?

0:17:17 > 0:17:19OK, well, we don't know, she won't tell us,

0:17:19 > 0:17:23but there is some tablet debris. Certainly an opiate.

0:17:23 > 0:17:24Several other unknowns.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27She's drowsy and has severe abdo pain.

0:17:27 > 0:17:30Her resp rate is 23.

0:17:30 > 0:17:33Oh, and some red dye staining in her vomit.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35MUDPILES -

0:17:35 > 0:17:39Methanol, Uraemia, Diabetic Ketoacidosis, Paraldehyde, Iron...

0:17:39 > 0:17:40- Ferrous Sulphate!- Correct!

0:17:41 > 0:17:44- Wow, that is a painful death. - Yeah.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46We need to confirm with a serum iron.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49OK, Charlie? Thank you, bringer of light!

0:17:50 > 0:17:52Sam...

0:17:52 > 0:17:54Are you aware of who she is?

0:17:55 > 0:17:58Her resp rate is falling - she's getting drowsy.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00OK.

0:18:00 > 0:18:02Pupils are pin-point.

0:18:02 > 0:18:03- Another 400 of naloxone?- Yep.

0:18:03 > 0:18:05Yeah, great. And let's prep for an infusion.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08Come on. I thought you wanted to see Carmel.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12OK. I'm going to make a call.

0:18:15 > 0:18:18This is the ECG printout I did because of her fainting.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20You see - atrial fibrillation.

0:18:20 > 0:18:21Thank you.

0:18:22 > 0:18:24Hi, Patsy. How are you?

0:18:27 > 0:18:31This is going to need stitches, but it's nothing too serious.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33Will it scar? My leg?

0:18:33 > 0:18:36Probably, a little. We'll do our best.

0:18:36 > 0:18:40Now, we'll get you a shower and we'll find you some clean clothes.

0:18:40 > 0:18:41Oh, thank you.

0:18:41 > 0:18:43Right, I'll get myself cleaned up.

0:18:43 > 0:18:47Patsy, if you need anything, you're in very good hands, OK?

0:18:47 > 0:18:50And can you make sure she gets the best NHS experience?

0:18:50 > 0:18:53- Of course.- I'm talking like... - Of course.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55Right, I'll be off.

0:18:55 > 0:18:56(It's for Gemma, not me.)

0:18:58 > 0:19:01Patsy, have you felt faint before?

0:19:01 > 0:19:03Any chest pains, palpitations, breathlessness?

0:19:03 > 0:19:07I had a well woman thing recently. No problems.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10And you're not currently taking any medication?

0:19:11 > 0:19:12No. Nothing.

0:19:12 > 0:19:15OK. Duffy, can we get a 12 lead ECG,

0:19:15 > 0:19:17please, when you're back from the shower?

0:19:17 > 0:19:18And let's give her flucloxacillin,

0:19:18 > 0:19:22metronidazole and a tetanus immunoglobulin, please.

0:19:22 > 0:19:23OK.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26I'll be back in a minute.

0:19:31 > 0:19:32How are you doing?

0:19:34 > 0:19:36It's going to scar.

0:19:36 > 0:19:38I really liked my legs.

0:19:38 > 0:19:39Oh, you've got great legs.

0:19:42 > 0:19:43I'm so sorry, love.

0:19:43 > 0:19:45Why?

0:19:45 > 0:19:47You were brilliant, sweetheart.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51OK, Charlie! RTC!

0:19:51 > 0:19:53All right.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14Hurting, hmm?

0:20:15 > 0:20:16Like my daughter.

0:20:19 > 0:20:22I can't work out if it's an act, or the guilt has finally kicked in.

0:20:22 > 0:20:26Hey! I don't think much of your bedside manner.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28I'm here as a mother, not a doctor.

0:20:28 > 0:20:29Then you shouldn't be in here.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32So, you take a handful of vitamins, a bit of morphine,

0:20:32 > 0:20:34- and come demanding to see your daughter.- Connie.

0:20:34 > 0:20:36- Can you call her off? - I think you should leave.

0:20:38 > 0:20:39Enough, Connie.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41What is it? Do you not remember what she did?

0:20:41 > 0:20:44That six months ago, here, my daughter!

0:20:44 > 0:20:46No-one remembers what that woman did!

0:20:46 > 0:20:49- Come on. - Do I have to make this official?

0:20:50 > 0:20:52Connie, wait!

0:20:52 > 0:20:54I don't care what your position is - don't talk to me like that.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57And while you are employed in this department, you are a doctor,

0:20:57 > 0:20:59first and foremost, Connie.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02She could put in a complaint. She has a witness.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05She's playing the system, Charlie. There nothing wrong with her.

0:21:05 > 0:21:06She's not suicidal!

0:21:06 > 0:21:08What makes you so sure about that?

0:21:08 > 0:21:11- Because she was fine this morning. - This...

0:21:11 > 0:21:13This morning? How?

0:21:15 > 0:21:18I saw her in prison. OK?

0:21:18 > 0:21:21You did what?! That could jeopardise everything.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24That's what she meant about protocol.

0:21:24 > 0:21:25It went well, I see.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28This is Connie, as usual, trying to control every aspect of everyone.

0:21:28 > 0:21:31Yeah! For my daughter? Absolutely.

0:21:31 > 0:21:33What, and even risk the trial? Steph could get off.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35Do you not see that?

0:21:35 > 0:21:36So she was fine.

0:21:36 > 0:21:40You visited and she attempted suicide.

0:21:40 > 0:21:41What did you say to her, Connie?

0:21:41 > 0:21:42Well, I just...

0:21:43 > 0:21:44No.

0:21:46 > 0:21:47No, this has nothing to do with me.

0:21:47 > 0:21:49Back off, both of you.

0:21:57 > 0:21:59Mr Sims.

0:21:59 > 0:22:02I am so sorry that we meet again under these circumstances.

0:22:02 > 0:22:05I mean, it's an awful, awful stunt.

0:22:05 > 0:22:07Stunt? I was told...

0:22:07 > 0:22:11Well, we know what she's like, and I would really hate for...

0:22:13 > 0:22:17I just don't want to see her manipulate you and Carmel again.

0:22:17 > 0:22:20You wouldn't let her do that, would you?

0:22:25 > 0:22:28I've spoken to your GP, who confirms that you're not on any medication.

0:22:28 > 0:22:31- Here. You can use mine. - Thank you.

0:22:31 > 0:22:34Your heart has an arrhythmia - a slight irregular pattern.

0:22:34 > 0:22:35Given your general good health,

0:22:35 > 0:22:38could this be related to your menopause?

0:22:39 > 0:22:42Nick. Can you give us a minute?

0:22:44 > 0:22:45I want to hear this.

0:22:45 > 0:22:47Please. It's a bit...

0:22:48 > 0:22:50A bit what?

0:22:50 > 0:22:52Private?

0:22:52 > 0:22:54Right, OK.

0:22:58 > 0:23:01I didn't want to discuss it in front of anyone.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03Patsy, he's your husband.

0:23:03 > 0:23:06Yeah, and it's become a problem with him.

0:23:07 > 0:23:10Between us, I'm just not...

0:23:12 > 0:23:13..keen any more.

0:23:14 > 0:23:16Keen?

0:23:16 > 0:23:18Yeah. You know.

0:23:18 > 0:23:20You mean sex?

0:23:24 > 0:23:26Excuse me.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30I found, when I went through it...

0:23:33 > 0:23:38For example, at work, I didn't like to talk about it.

0:23:39 > 0:23:41But then when I spoke to my colleagues,

0:23:41 > 0:23:45they were really supportive, including the men.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49Most of them have no idea what we go through.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51That's because no-one talks about it.

0:23:51 > 0:23:53Oh, yeah, and with good reason.

0:23:55 > 0:23:57You're a nurse.

0:23:57 > 0:24:00Your colleagues are meant to be nurturing.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04I'm a retail manager at the end of her career.

0:24:04 > 0:24:07It's hard enough as it is without telling anyone I sweat like

0:24:07 > 0:24:10I'm running uphill, my hair's falling out and,

0:24:10 > 0:24:12oh, sometimes I wet myself.

0:24:18 > 0:24:19Who wants that on their CV?

0:24:22 > 0:24:23And why would I tell my husband?

0:24:27 > 0:24:30It's hardly...feminine.

0:24:32 > 0:24:33It's certainly not sexy.

0:24:47 > 0:24:50Where is she? You promised!

0:24:50 > 0:24:52Why would I allow you to see her?

0:24:52 > 0:24:54I want to see my daughter!

0:24:55 > 0:24:57It's been months.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59This morning you didn't care if you ever saw her again.

0:24:59 > 0:25:02Did you think about the effect on Carmel for one moment?

0:25:02 > 0:25:05What happens when you go back to prison?

0:25:05 > 0:25:08Are you going to pull a stunt like this again?

0:25:08 > 0:25:10Why would I expose my daughter to that?

0:25:10 > 0:25:11Our daughter.

0:25:13 > 0:25:16I'm taking out an injunction against you.

0:25:16 > 0:25:20However the trial turns out, I'm going to fight all contact.

0:25:26 > 0:25:28No.

0:25:28 > 0:25:30No! No!

0:25:30 > 0:25:32- No, no, no! Don't do that.- No, no!

0:25:32 > 0:25:34- Stop resisting. You'll hurt yourself.- No!

0:25:35 > 0:25:37No!

0:25:37 > 0:25:41Maybe the best thing would be if I tell her you got your wish -

0:25:41 > 0:25:43you died in here.

0:25:44 > 0:25:45No!

0:25:46 > 0:25:48No, no, no!

0:25:48 > 0:25:50All right, all right.

0:25:50 > 0:25:51Please?

0:25:57 > 0:25:58All right.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01He's lashing out. He's hurt.

0:26:03 > 0:26:04You're still her mum.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09Phil! Stop!

0:26:20 > 0:26:21What?

0:26:23 > 0:26:24You OK?

0:26:24 > 0:26:26She was my wife, mother of my child,

0:26:26 > 0:26:28so, no, I'm not OK.

0:26:30 > 0:26:34Can I ask you just to think before you make any decisions?

0:26:34 > 0:26:37And telling Carmel that her mother is dead could be

0:26:37 > 0:26:39enormously damaging for everyone.

0:26:42 > 0:26:44Every child needs one parent they can trust.

0:26:54 > 0:26:57It's confirmed. She's taken ferrous sulphate.

0:26:57 > 0:26:59- Can I have a look at that chest X-ray?- Yeah.

0:27:00 > 0:27:03I mean, I didn't see anything.

0:27:03 > 0:27:05What do you think? Give her charcoal?

0:27:05 > 0:27:06No effect.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08I had a very similar patient a few years ago.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11Died of a massive gastric bleed. Really suffered.

0:27:11 > 0:27:14Took a couple of hours. Nothing we could do.

0:27:15 > 0:27:17Cal, sorry about earlier.

0:27:18 > 0:27:19It's fine.

0:27:23 > 0:27:25There. You can just see the shadow.

0:27:26 > 0:27:29Ferrous sulphate shows up on an X-ray.

0:27:29 > 0:27:31I missed it. I was only looking at the chest.

0:27:31 > 0:27:33Anyone would. You have to know what you're looking for.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35You had no idea what she swallowed.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38Steph's in more pain. She's deteriorating.

0:27:38 > 0:27:41So, what are we thinking? Bowel irrigation?

0:27:41 > 0:27:43Too risky. It means waiting for the tablets to break down.

0:27:43 > 0:27:45Can we get her up to gastroenterology?

0:27:45 > 0:27:47They could do an emergency OGD.

0:27:47 > 0:27:51So reach in and physically take out the pills before they dissolve?

0:27:51 > 0:27:54I've never seen that done. Have you?

0:27:54 > 0:27:56Once, in the States.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Keep it! I don't want your stupid job anyway!

0:28:04 > 0:28:06Gemma! What's up?

0:28:06 > 0:28:09If I'm honest about my past, they say no.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11If I'm not, I'll get sacked anyway as soon as they find out.

0:28:11 > 0:28:13All right, calm down.

0:28:13 > 0:28:16That's the second time today. I told you, it's pointless.

0:28:16 > 0:28:17Come here. Come on.

0:28:20 > 0:28:21Let's not lose hope just yet, OK?

0:28:21 > 0:28:23I'm working on something.

0:28:25 > 0:28:26Come on.

0:28:27 > 0:28:30Change of plan. Gastro can't take her.

0:28:30 > 0:28:31We'll do it right here.

0:28:31 > 0:28:33Now? Here?

0:28:33 > 0:28:36- She can't wait any longer. - And you've seen this, what, once?

0:28:36 > 0:28:38Yes.

0:28:40 > 0:28:42Anyone with a better idea?

0:28:42 > 0:28:44I'm not doing this.

0:28:44 > 0:28:46Um, we have consent, right, Charlie?

0:28:48 > 0:28:49I'm never going to see Carmel again.

0:28:49 > 0:28:51You don't know that.

0:28:51 > 0:28:53Think, Steph.

0:28:55 > 0:28:56Give yourself a chance.

0:28:58 > 0:29:02I know right now carrying on seems the hardest thing in the world,

0:29:02 > 0:29:04but that feeling will pass.

0:29:07 > 0:29:08Steph...

0:29:10 > 0:29:11Your daughter needs you.

0:29:13 > 0:29:14So, is that a yes?

0:29:18 > 0:29:20OK. Let's bring the scope over...

0:29:22 > 0:29:26..here. Sorry, I didn't catch your name.

0:29:27 > 0:29:29This isn't going to work.

0:29:29 > 0:29:31We have very strict instructions.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36Coffee break? OK.

0:29:36 > 0:29:39I have a very sick patient, five members of staff

0:29:39 > 0:29:41and a four-foot length of fibre optic probe

0:29:41 > 0:29:43I'm about to push down her throat.

0:29:43 > 0:29:46I don't think she's going anywhere, do you?

0:29:50 > 0:29:51Thank you.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54OK. Left lateral position. She needs some sedation.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56Let's start with 5mg of midazolam. I'll change.

0:29:56 > 0:29:58Yup. OK. Sorry.

0:30:04 > 0:30:09Patsy's BP is 160/80 and she's still in atrial fibrillation.

0:30:09 > 0:30:12- She's 62, yeah?- Mm-hmm. - So the AF could be menopausal.

0:30:12 > 0:30:15Start her on bisoprolol and refer her to the medics

0:30:15 > 0:30:16if the heart rate doesn't slow.

0:30:16 > 0:30:18Her liver function's also off.

0:30:18 > 0:30:20Given that she's not on any medication and she's had

0:30:20 > 0:30:23a clean bill of health from her doctor recently, it just seems...

0:30:23 > 0:30:24A bit odd, yeah.

0:30:24 > 0:30:28What would cause sudden heart and liver problems? A virus?

0:30:28 > 0:30:32Maybe. Do an abdominal ultrasound and a hepatitis screen.

0:30:32 > 0:30:35Oh, and, Lily, ask again about the meds.

0:30:35 > 0:30:38Sometimes people need a second go at remembering.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40Thank you.

0:30:40 > 0:30:43Patsy, these are for you.

0:30:43 > 0:30:46Oh! That's really kind of you.

0:30:48 > 0:30:52So, Iain, how's your sister? Currently available?

0:30:52 > 0:30:54Very capable. Lovely girl.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58Ah. This again!

0:30:58 > 0:31:01Really? That's your subtle? I just said just mention her.

0:31:01 > 0:31:02I did.

0:31:02 > 0:31:06Look, you obviously care about your sister,

0:31:06 > 0:31:08but I've been through an awful lot today.

0:31:08 > 0:31:12Yeah. Yeah, you're right. I'm sorry.

0:31:12 > 0:31:13Maybe I misjudged this.

0:31:13 > 0:31:15Oh, wait.

0:31:15 > 0:31:19I really do like the flowers and I'm very grateful to you.

0:31:19 > 0:31:23And, as I don't seem to be going home, tell your sister...

0:31:23 > 0:31:24Gemma.

0:31:24 > 0:31:27Tell Gemma she can prove her commitment by coming in now.

0:31:27 > 0:31:30Patsy, you are a legend.

0:31:30 > 0:31:32Robyn, I need the ultrasound, please.

0:31:32 > 0:31:35See? direct, honest and to the point.

0:31:35 > 0:31:38- Always works in business. - Yeah, thanks for that. You're fired.

0:31:38 > 0:31:40You like these, don't you?

0:31:42 > 0:31:45Why an ultrasound? I'm not pregnant.

0:31:46 > 0:31:50Your blood tests indicate some issues with your liver.

0:31:50 > 0:31:52First my heart, now my liver.

0:31:53 > 0:31:54What's going on?

0:31:55 > 0:31:57In a little bit more. Bit more.

0:31:58 > 0:32:00That's that out the way.

0:32:01 > 0:32:02Where are you?

0:32:02 > 0:32:04Where are you...?

0:32:04 > 0:32:06There's one!

0:32:06 > 0:32:07Right.

0:32:09 > 0:32:12OK. I'm just getting into position. You can retract it.

0:32:16 > 0:32:17Extending.

0:32:19 > 0:32:20I'm going to go for it.

0:32:22 > 0:32:24Got it!

0:32:24 > 0:32:28OK. There's no sign of any bleeding or ulcerations.

0:32:28 > 0:32:31I tell you what, this needs to be the future for A&E.

0:32:31 > 0:32:35You should come and talk to me, I'll introduce you to some people.

0:32:35 > 0:32:36Looking good, Steph.

0:32:36 > 0:32:40All right. We'll take this out and we'll go in for the others.

0:32:40 > 0:32:41Well done.

0:32:42 > 0:32:43Coffee?

0:32:43 > 0:32:46Ah! My one-a-day. You are a life saver.

0:32:46 > 0:32:48I'm not a charity, though. £2.50.

0:32:48 > 0:32:51Hang on, it's £2 in the shop.

0:32:51 > 0:32:53Yeah, do you normally get tray service?

0:32:53 > 0:32:55I'm hoping this is my interviewee.

0:32:55 > 0:32:56(Good luck.)

0:32:59 > 0:33:00Takings for the day.

0:33:00 > 0:33:03I knew they'd be gagging for a brew when the shop shut.

0:33:03 > 0:33:05Good thinking. Shows initiative.

0:33:05 > 0:33:07Gem.

0:33:07 > 0:33:08Patsy.

0:33:08 > 0:33:11Don't get too excited - you've not heard the bad news yet.

0:33:14 > 0:33:15Good. Don't let me forget.

0:33:15 > 0:33:17I won't.

0:33:17 > 0:33:19I'll put you in front of the right people.

0:33:19 > 0:33:21That's great, thank you, Sam.

0:33:24 > 0:33:27Medical Director in scrubs. That'll impress the troops.

0:33:29 > 0:33:35So, the thinking behind Grace's lack of speech is a psych issue.

0:33:35 > 0:33:38You mean neuro. We know she has epilepsy.

0:33:38 > 0:33:39I mean psych.

0:33:39 > 0:33:43I've spoken to Jones, top people here,

0:33:43 > 0:33:45colleagues in the States, top of their field.

0:33:45 > 0:33:48I sent them Grace's medical notes and MRI scans.

0:33:48 > 0:33:50She had a serious head injury...

0:33:50 > 0:33:53There is no neurological reason why she's not talking.

0:33:55 > 0:33:58I wondered if perhaps it was voluntary.

0:34:00 > 0:34:01Why would she do that?

0:34:02 > 0:34:04Many reasons.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07Maybe PTSD, maybe she just doesn't want to talk.

0:34:09 > 0:34:11Subconsciously, of course.

0:34:18 > 0:34:21Well, I'm glad you told me about your past.

0:34:21 > 0:34:24It's best to be open and honest about these things from the start.

0:34:26 > 0:34:27That's a straight no, then.

0:34:28 > 0:34:31I think everyone deserves a second chance,

0:34:31 > 0:34:33especially someone as young as you.

0:34:33 > 0:34:36And I was very impressed with your display of initiative earlier.

0:34:36 > 0:34:38- So...- There you go, love. - Thanks, love.

0:34:38 > 0:34:41Just a couple of forms to fill in before we go any further.

0:34:46 > 0:34:48I'll take these home and I'll send them to you.

0:34:48 > 0:34:49Oh, it'll only take a couple of minutes.

0:34:49 > 0:34:52And it's good to see someone's handwriting, too.

0:34:52 > 0:34:53Let's just call it a verbal agreement.

0:34:53 > 0:34:56Don't be daft. However entrepreneurial you might be,

0:34:56 > 0:34:58it's important you listen to your boss.

0:34:58 > 0:35:00What do you need forms for anyway? I've told you everything.

0:35:00 > 0:35:02I don't understand. What's the issue?

0:35:02 > 0:35:04This is standard procedure.

0:35:04 > 0:35:05The issue? You're the issue.

0:35:05 > 0:35:07Hey. Watch your manners, young lady.

0:35:07 > 0:35:10Don't "young lady" me just because she's an old witch.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12Hey...!

0:35:12 > 0:35:13What's that about?

0:35:15 > 0:35:19Your second test confirms you've got some problems with your liver.

0:35:19 > 0:35:21Are you taking HRT, or self-medicating HRT?

0:35:21 > 0:35:25I'm not on any medication. Is that clear?

0:35:25 > 0:35:27Look, she got a clean bill of health not three months ago.

0:35:27 > 0:35:29Perhaps it's you that's got it wrong.

0:35:29 > 0:35:31- I've repeated the test... - Maybe you're not competent, then!

0:35:31 > 0:35:33Nick! Be quiet.

0:35:33 > 0:35:36Sir, you'll be respectful to our staff or you will be asked to leave.

0:35:36 > 0:35:40Fine. I could do with a breather.

0:35:40 > 0:35:41I'm so sorry.

0:35:42 > 0:35:44He's never like this normally.

0:36:02 > 0:36:03Hey, sweetheart.

0:36:09 > 0:36:11SHE SIGHS

0:36:17 > 0:36:19GRACE MOANS

0:36:20 > 0:36:21Gracie?

0:36:23 > 0:36:25Gracie, did you say something?

0:36:29 > 0:36:31Gracie, talk to me.

0:36:35 > 0:36:37Grace, talk to me!

0:36:54 > 0:36:58Now listen, this might not be any of my business, but I couldn't

0:36:58 > 0:37:00help but notice your reaction in there.

0:37:02 > 0:37:04Is there something you're not telling us?

0:37:04 > 0:37:06There's, um...

0:37:07 > 0:37:10There's no confidentiality thing between us, is there?

0:37:10 > 0:37:13Paramedic and husband of patient? No.

0:37:13 > 0:37:14So...

0:37:15 > 0:37:18So if I tell you something, you'll have to tell her.

0:37:18 > 0:37:22I have a duty of care, yeah. What is it, Nick?

0:37:22 > 0:37:23Have you done something?

0:37:28 > 0:37:31She'd given up on us. On me.

0:37:32 > 0:37:36And she won't talk about it. I didn't know what to do.

0:37:37 > 0:37:39Since she hit the menopause, it's...

0:37:40 > 0:37:42She seems to think I didn't notice.

0:37:44 > 0:37:47And after the dog was sick, the vet gave him some medicine,

0:37:47 > 0:37:50said it would boost his energy and that.

0:37:52 > 0:37:56I took some myself to see if it would work

0:37:56 > 0:37:57and see if it caused any...

0:38:00 > 0:38:01..any harm.

0:38:02 > 0:38:04You've given her dog pills?!

0:38:05 > 0:38:07Powder. Not that that matters.

0:38:10 > 0:38:11What have I done?

0:38:15 > 0:38:16HE WHISTLES

0:38:19 > 0:38:21They need to know, don't they?

0:38:21 > 0:38:24Er, yes. They absolutely do.

0:38:46 > 0:38:48Louise, go and get cleaned up.

0:38:50 > 0:38:53You can't treat the patient like that.

0:38:53 > 0:38:54You sure?

0:38:54 > 0:38:56Yeah, it's fine. I'll watch her.

0:38:56 > 0:38:58OK. I'll be two minutes.

0:39:27 > 0:39:30You have no idea how much my daughter is suffering.

0:39:32 > 0:39:34SHE SPLUTTERS

0:39:39 > 0:39:42SHE CHOKES

0:39:57 > 0:39:59CHOKING STOPS

0:40:02 > 0:40:03What are you doing?

0:40:04 > 0:40:05My job.

0:40:05 > 0:40:06- Get out.- Charlie.

0:40:06 > 0:40:08- Charlie...- Get out!

0:40:17 > 0:40:19I thought if it was safe for dogs, then...

0:40:19 > 0:40:21Veterinary medicines aren't safe for humans.

0:40:21 > 0:40:22It could have been very dangerous.

0:40:22 > 0:40:25And why do it in secret?

0:40:25 > 0:40:27- Because... - If this is about me, Doctor...

0:40:29 > 0:40:30..shouldn't I be informed?

0:40:38 > 0:40:39What is it?

0:40:40 > 0:40:42Your husband's been feeding you this.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44For about three months.

0:40:46 > 0:40:47I, um...

0:40:48 > 0:40:50..mixed it into your food.

0:40:54 > 0:40:55Why?

0:40:58 > 0:41:00Is this what damaged my liver?

0:41:00 > 0:41:04Possibly. We'll have to check with the National Poisons Centre.

0:41:06 > 0:41:08- Are you trying to get rid of me? - Of course not, love.

0:41:08 > 0:41:10Nick...

0:41:11 > 0:41:13I thought you...

0:41:14 > 0:41:16I'm sorry, love, I...

0:41:16 > 0:41:18Keep him away from me.

0:41:34 > 0:41:36I, um...

0:41:38 > 0:41:40I forgot to turn the suction on, that's all.

0:41:40 > 0:41:43Is that your best shot?

0:41:43 > 0:41:45It's your word against mine.

0:41:45 > 0:41:47No, no, no, no. Let's not pretend.

0:41:47 > 0:41:49We both know what happened in there -

0:41:49 > 0:41:51what would have happened, if I hadn't walked in.

0:41:51 > 0:41:53You have got to get a grip, Connie.

0:41:53 > 0:41:56Your emotions are all over the place.

0:41:56 > 0:41:58First it was Elle and now it's Steph.

0:41:58 > 0:42:01And what do you propose to do about it?

0:42:14 > 0:42:16I know what I should do.

0:42:34 > 0:42:37The Poisons Centre said that the powder could have caused

0:42:37 > 0:42:40your arrhythmia and liver problems.

0:42:40 > 0:42:41But nothing long-lasting.

0:42:44 > 0:42:47I'm not convinced he was trying to harm you.

0:42:48 > 0:42:49But he did.

0:42:49 > 0:42:52It wasn't malicious. I've done this job a long time,

0:42:52 > 0:42:53you get an instinct.

0:42:53 > 0:42:55It wasn't malicious.

0:42:58 > 0:43:01I don't even like these.

0:43:01 > 0:43:05He's a man trying to find a fix, something practical.

0:43:05 > 0:43:07Anything, but talking it through.

0:43:08 > 0:43:11I haven't been in a talking mood, to be honest.

0:43:12 > 0:43:15And even if I had been, would he have wanted to hear it?

0:43:16 > 0:43:20He could have said nothing, you know. Just taken you home.

0:43:22 > 0:43:23He chose to come clean.

0:43:30 > 0:43:31How are you feeling?

0:43:33 > 0:43:35I've hurt too many people.

0:43:37 > 0:43:39I want to make it right, Charlie.

0:43:45 > 0:43:47We need to secure the prisoner again.

0:44:01 > 0:44:02How is she?

0:44:03 > 0:44:05Better.

0:44:05 > 0:44:07Physically, at least.

0:44:08 > 0:44:09She's out of danger, we think.

0:44:12 > 0:44:16I've just been driving round and round, thinking about what you said.

0:44:18 > 0:44:22I'm holding off any decisions. Would you tell her, please?

0:44:24 > 0:44:25It may be better if you do it.

0:44:27 > 0:44:29Better not.

0:44:29 > 0:44:31You sure?

0:44:31 > 0:44:33Yeah.

0:44:33 > 0:44:34OK.

0:44:34 > 0:44:36I'll be right back.

0:45:09 > 0:45:11I don't know who I am any more, Charlie.

0:45:15 > 0:45:17And it terrifies me.

0:45:22 > 0:45:24I came so close.

0:45:26 > 0:45:27So close.

0:45:34 > 0:45:36Yes, you did.

0:46:00 > 0:46:01Idiot.

0:46:04 > 0:46:06But I know you weren't trying to hurt me.

0:46:06 > 0:46:07Never.

0:46:09 > 0:46:13Sometimes, it's just easier not to have those conversations.

0:46:14 > 0:46:17Not really. Not in the long run.

0:46:17 > 0:46:19And I'm here for the long run.

0:46:24 > 0:46:29I just need to know if you think there's an us worth the struggle.

0:46:32 > 0:46:34I need to hear you say it, sweetheart.

0:46:35 > 0:46:37Do you still love me?

0:46:37 > 0:46:38Of course I do.

0:46:40 > 0:46:43Do you still love me, though?

0:46:43 > 0:46:45You don't have to ask.

0:46:50 > 0:46:52Iain, you did good today.

0:46:52 > 0:46:56Thanks. You didn't do too bad yourself, Dr Chao.

0:46:59 > 0:47:02Hello? We know you're out there.

0:47:06 > 0:47:08Couldn't help overhearing.

0:47:10 > 0:47:14Listen, I really wanted to apologise for my sister's behaviour earlier.

0:47:14 > 0:47:15Sister?

0:47:15 > 0:47:16Yeah. The interview.

0:47:18 > 0:47:20- That was your sister?- Yup.

0:47:20 > 0:47:23She's quite a character.

0:47:23 > 0:47:24But I'm sure we can...

0:47:24 > 0:47:27I'll see her at eight o'clock on Monday morning. Prompt.

0:47:32 > 0:47:33And thanks.

0:47:34 > 0:47:35Yeah.

0:47:41 > 0:47:43OK, let's have a look.

0:47:44 > 0:47:46Oh! Here she is.

0:47:47 > 0:47:51I'm so sorry, sweetheart. All right, I'm here now.

0:47:54 > 0:47:57Right, from today, things are going to change.

0:47:58 > 0:48:01All right? And I'm here for you.

0:48:02 > 0:48:05OK? Now, all we need to do is get you home.

0:48:05 > 0:48:08Right, well, everything's sorted, everything's packed.

0:48:08 > 0:48:10Where have you been?

0:48:11 > 0:48:12We, um...

0:48:13 > 0:48:15We had some difficulty downstairs.

0:48:15 > 0:48:18- We've been waiting half an hour. - Can we not do this now?

0:48:18 > 0:48:20- No, darling. Stop doing that. - Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

0:48:20 > 0:48:22Stop doing that, darling, you're going to hurt yourself.
