0:00:02 > 0:00:03Mr Fairhead.
0:00:03 > 0:00:08My esteemed colleagues were on a stag night,
0:00:08 > 0:00:10and they seem to have misplaced the groom.
0:00:10 > 0:00:12No-one of that name here.
0:00:14 > 0:00:16What...what happened?
0:00:16 > 0:00:18Cancer, stage four.
0:00:18 > 0:00:22She is going to be a widow in a few months.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25All that heartache for a few memories.
0:00:26 > 0:00:27You're having a baby, Robyn.
0:00:33 > 0:00:34I'm very sorry.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43Napkins! I've forgotten the napkins.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Ah, have you had a break yet?
0:00:45 > 0:00:46I'm due one now, yes.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48Please, please, please?
0:00:49 > 0:00:51- All right.- Yes.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Yes. It's fine, no problem..
0:00:53 > 0:00:54Thank you.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58Robyn, I need a word with you.
0:00:58 > 0:01:00Charlie. One o'clock, guys.
0:01:00 > 0:01:01One o'clock for what?
0:01:01 > 0:01:03We've got lunch plans.
0:01:03 > 0:01:04Don't even bother. Not today!
0:01:04 > 0:01:06Robyn?
0:01:06 > 0:01:07Is it about work?
0:01:07 > 0:01:09No.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12- Is it anything related to the christening?- No, not directly.
0:01:12 > 0:01:13Well, then it can wait.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02So...explanation?
0:02:09 > 0:02:10Do you want to sit down?
0:02:14 > 0:02:16Today's the big day.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18Isn't it?
0:02:18 > 0:02:19Yes.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21You knew?
0:02:25 > 0:02:27You're still wearing the ring.
0:02:30 > 0:02:31This...
0:02:34 > 0:02:36This was to remember a dead man.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38RING CLATTERS
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Went well.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45I should have left you in the gutter, shouldn't I?
0:02:45 > 0:02:49I wasn't in the gutter, DD... I was gazing at the stars.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53# Make me feel like the one Make me feel like the one... #
0:02:55 > 0:02:56I wasn't having a go...
0:02:58 > 0:03:00And you bring it up in here cos you think I won't start owt?
0:03:00 > 0:03:03- Oi!- Ain't no-body here going to give two...
0:03:03 > 0:03:07Oi! Let go of her, you stupid human being.
0:03:10 > 0:03:11You all right, love?
0:03:12 > 0:03:13You got a problem?
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Outside.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17I hope you know what you're doing, mate.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- cos if this goes downhill... - Blah, blah, blah, blah.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24Outside, you woman-beating, brain-dead, sack of...
0:03:25 > 0:03:26..dirt.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30It's school time, come on.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42Soon as I negotiate my way out of this, it's on.
0:03:42 > 0:03:43You couldn't beat her, mate.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Don't you worry about me, soft lad.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- Dead man walking here.- Right, mate. - I'm not scared of you.
0:03:54 > 0:03:58Ha! The joke's on you, lad. My headache's gone.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04Have you seen this man? He was on a stag do.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07No? No, all right, thanks for you help.
0:04:10 > 0:04:11GROANING
0:04:19 > 0:04:23Home sweet home. Want me to show you around?
0:04:24 > 0:04:25You want to see it again?
0:04:29 > 0:04:32Can you sit up for me, Glen? I need to have a look at your eye.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38It's just superficial damage, I think you'll be OK.
0:04:38 > 0:04:39I didn't feel anything, Dylan.
0:04:39 > 0:04:40PHONE RINGS
0:04:46 > 0:04:49Really, this couldn't be happening at a worse time.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52Can I... Glen, I've got to go now
0:04:52 > 0:04:54but I'm going to pop back later in the week.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Oh, no, no, leave me to it, man.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59No, no, no, I really, I need to pop back. I've got some news for you.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01I might not be here. I'm hoping I won't be.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05Well, you need to be here. It's important and you're going to want to hear it.
0:05:05 > 0:05:06Oh, now I'm intrigued.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10- PHONE RINGS - Right, well, stay intrigued. OK, I'll see you then.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14Yes?
0:05:14 > 0:05:15Well, have you found him yet?
0:05:17 > 0:05:19- The Lion King?- No.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21You didn't cry at The Lion King?
0:05:21 > 0:05:23I told you I don't cry that much.
0:05:23 > 0:05:24It's A Wonderful Life?
0:05:26 > 0:05:27That's just about a banker, isn't it!
0:05:27 > 0:05:29I think you kind of missed the point.
0:05:36 > 0:05:37Bambi?
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Mmmm, venison steak. Yum yum!
0:05:39 > 0:05:42You're not human, even a serial killer would cry at Bambi.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49Dylan, you're needed in paeds resus.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53Young baby, mother died at the scene, father's in resus now.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55- OK.- What's happening?
0:05:55 > 0:05:57It's the conclusion of a very bad plan.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01OK. Right, the baby is six months old.
0:06:01 > 0:06:05Strapped into a rear-facing car seat in the passenger side
0:06:05 > 0:06:06when the car flipped over.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09He's drowsy but responsive to pain.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11Connie and Elle not free, no?
0:06:11 > 0:06:12No.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14Robyn, I don't know what to say.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17Dylan. Just one thing at a time. That can wait.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22All right, OK, pulmonary contusions are evident.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Let's keep going with the O2, then, please.
0:06:24 > 0:06:28I'll need an EZ-IO drill. And an antiseptic wipe as well.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31Yes?
0:06:32 > 0:06:34OK, Paeds can take him now.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36- Can you put them on speaker phone? - Yes.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39I am not content that he will make the transfer, I think
0:06:39 > 0:06:40he's about to go into respiratory arrest.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42So we are going to intubate down here.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45- Can you send somebody down, please? - Did you get that? OK.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Not today, please, Dylan.
0:06:51 > 0:06:52No, I will do my best.
0:06:57 > 0:06:58DRILL WHIRS
0:07:10 > 0:07:13Glen, a friend of mine... he was here yesterday?
0:07:14 > 0:07:16Yeah?
0:07:16 > 0:07:18# And I think it's going be a long, long time... #
0:07:18 > 0:07:21OK, can we have some coffee, please? Lots of it.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29I wasn't sure if I'd dreamt about you or not.
0:07:29 > 0:07:30That would have been a very dull dream.
0:07:34 > 0:07:35Your turn.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44Aw, man, you're no fun, are you?
0:07:47 > 0:07:49If it had to be anyone from Holby,
0:07:49 > 0:07:51why you?
0:07:51 > 0:07:52You echo my thoughts.
0:07:55 > 0:07:56How are you feeling now?
0:07:58 > 0:08:00Sober.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02You sure about that?
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Starting to feel again, it's horrible.
0:08:09 > 0:08:13Robyn's pregnant, the child is yours, and she's keeping it.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20I'm assuming that you left her at the altar for altruistic reasons,
0:08:20 > 0:08:24so I've also made the assumption that you'd want to know that fact.
0:08:43 > 0:08:44Thank you.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53What did you tell me that for?
0:08:54 > 0:08:57There I was, happily dying, and you drop that bomb shell on me.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03You could have not said anything, you could have just left me to it.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Well, you can take it from me, Glen,
0:09:08 > 0:09:12that although we say it doesn't matter, who our father is
0:09:12 > 0:09:14is important to our sense of self.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19Now, I'm sure you don't want your child growing up
0:09:19 > 0:09:21thinking that you abandoned the mother
0:09:21 > 0:09:24and you crawled off to some grotty seaside hole
0:09:24 > 0:09:25to drink yourself to death.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28I'm sure that you want something better.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36You could just say I got killed saving the universe.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39OK, there will be plenty of time for gallows humour later,
0:09:39 > 0:09:40but for now, let's be serious.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43OK, I've just told you that you're going to be a father.
0:09:43 > 0:09:44What do you want to do?
0:09:48 > 0:09:50I want to hold my child before I die.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Remind me of your original prognosis.
0:10:01 > 0:10:05Um... I was given a couple of weeks to live, three months ago.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Goodness me, you've done well, haven't you?
0:10:07 > 0:10:09You've not seen a doctor since then?
0:10:09 > 0:10:11- No.- GP?
0:10:12 > 0:10:14I've got some pills.
0:10:14 > 0:10:15Um...
0:10:16 > 0:10:19When's the baby due?
0:10:19 > 0:10:20May.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24That's ages.
0:10:26 > 0:10:31So, um...how are you going to help keep me alive till then?
0:10:35 > 0:10:36Me?
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Who else?
0:10:38 > 0:10:39I'm not a specialist, Glen.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41Well, you must know some?
0:10:41 > 0:10:44OK, rather than try to further defer your prognosis,
0:10:44 > 0:10:47what I was hoping to do is engineer some sort of reconciliation.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Once more, in English.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Don't you think it's time you spoke to Robyn?
0:10:51 > 0:10:55No. Not a chance, and you must not say a word either.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Why not?
0:10:57 > 0:10:59My time was up ages ago.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Right, I'm already dead to her,
0:11:01 > 0:11:03so what's the point in telling her I'm alive
0:11:03 > 0:11:06just for her to go through all that again?
0:11:06 > 0:11:09You shouldn't have told me she was preggers, but you did,
0:11:09 > 0:11:11so you have to help me to stay alive now.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16Just one moment, that's all I ask, to see her...
0:11:18 > 0:11:20..to hold her.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22By "her" you mean?
0:11:22 > 0:11:23The baby.
0:11:24 > 0:11:25- I've got a hunch.- Right.
0:11:27 > 0:11:28Deal?
0:11:33 > 0:11:36Yes, terrific, yes.
0:11:36 > 0:11:37Good.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42HE GROANS
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Come on!
0:12:02 > 0:12:04HE GASPS
0:12:19 > 0:12:21Goodness me...
0:12:26 > 0:12:28Problem?
0:12:29 > 0:12:30What?
0:12:31 > 0:12:33What patient is that for, then?
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Didn't seem to remember anyone being admitted today with a brain tumour?
0:12:38 > 0:12:42Noel, did you order me that pizza?
0:12:42 > 0:12:43- On it now.- Thanks.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48How's Robyn?
0:12:48 > 0:12:49Yes, fine.
0:12:49 > 0:12:50Being looked after?
0:12:51 > 0:12:55Yes, she's got everybody at her beck and call.
0:12:55 > 0:12:59- Good.- Right, now, this woman we are about to speak to...
0:12:59 > 0:13:00What about her?
0:13:00 > 0:13:02She's an old tutor of mine.
0:13:02 > 0:13:03Um...
0:13:06 > 0:13:07Brace yourself.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09Right
0:13:09 > 0:13:11COMPUTER CONNECTION RINGS
0:13:13 > 0:13:14Dylan!?
0:13:14 > 0:13:16I think you were expecting my call, weren't you?
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Oh, honey, you got OLD - what happened?
0:13:19 > 0:13:20Thank you very much, so have you.
0:13:20 > 0:13:24Would have thought of all people you could make time stand still.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Well, I live in America, that's what we do if you have enough money.
0:13:27 > 0:13:28I chose not to.
0:13:28 > 0:13:32Right, this is the gentleman we've been talking about.
0:13:32 > 0:13:33Hello.
0:13:33 > 0:13:37Well, hello, sailor. Listen, Glen?
0:13:37 > 0:13:40My former student is very much in awe of me,
0:13:40 > 0:13:45so I'm going to talk slowly so that he understands,
0:13:45 > 0:13:49I mean, we don't want him any more repressed than he already is, right?
0:13:49 > 0:13:52I mean, he could disappear entirely up his own orifice.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54Right, that's enough of that, I can hear every word.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56I know you can!
0:13:56 > 0:14:00So, Glen, are you single?
0:14:01 > 0:14:04Yeah. I missed my opportunity.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Too bad, I only hit on married men.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11Raise your right arm for me, please.
0:14:16 > 0:14:20I am having a hard time understanding how you can do that.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Well, I can't most mornings.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25- Seizures?- Yes.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27Spasms on the right side?
0:14:27 > 0:14:31- Yeah.- Debilitating headaches, nausea, lack of appetite,
0:14:31 > 0:14:33sensitivity to sun?
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Yeah, all of the above.
0:14:35 > 0:14:41We're looking to maximise Glen's remaining time.
0:14:41 > 0:14:42What day were you looking at?
0:14:42 > 0:14:44End of May?
0:14:45 > 0:14:47It's very important, Zsa Zsa.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Zsa Zsa?
0:14:49 > 0:14:53Well...not being funny, but I'm not sure
0:14:53 > 0:14:56I want to be operated on by somebody called Zsa Zsa.
0:14:56 > 0:15:00No offence taken, but it's a moot point.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02The procedure itself is very simple.
0:15:02 > 0:15:08We use an ALA dye to highlight, chop away, chemotherapy and prayer.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10Where do I sign?
0:15:11 > 0:15:13There's a hitch.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16You have surgeons in the UK who can do this procedure
0:15:16 > 0:15:19and I have contacted them, but the waiting list can't be circumvented.
0:15:21 > 0:15:25What's the matter, you don't have 200,000 stashed away somewhere?
0:15:25 > 0:15:28Yes, just give me a minute.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30How long is the waiting list, Zsa Zsa, about eight weeks?
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Eight weeks minimum.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34- Well, that's me done, then, isn't it?- Glen, sit down.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36I'm not going to be here in eight weeks!
0:15:36 > 0:15:39- Glen, sit down for me. - Why? Computer says no.
0:15:39 > 0:15:40Just calm down a second.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43You heard her. It's always about the money, isn't it?
0:15:43 > 0:15:46If you're born poor? Tough luck.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50The chemotherapy alone could offer you some hope.
0:15:50 > 0:15:51What? With my luck?
0:15:51 > 0:15:53You said it yourself,
0:15:53 > 0:15:57this baby's going to grow up knowing it's father was a loser.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00I just wanted to do one good thing before I go.
0:16:03 > 0:16:08Right, I'm off to the pub, tell your friend sorry for the hissy fit,
0:16:08 > 0:16:09and thanks for trying.
0:16:15 > 0:16:16You heard that?
0:16:16 > 0:16:18Thanks for the emotional blackmail.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Who's the mother?
0:16:22 > 0:16:25She's a colleague, actually, she's a good person,
0:16:25 > 0:16:27you'd probably hate her.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31Why are you doing this? It's not in your character.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36Well, you know, he wants to see his child.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39Well, I'm a genius, I'm not a magician.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42He should be long dead, I think you can see that for yourself.
0:16:42 > 0:16:46Come on, surely you want to have a good rummage around in there?
0:16:48 > 0:16:49I shall ruminate.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51OK, all right, thanks.
0:16:52 > 0:16:57I stopped calling. There wasn't much point when you wouldn't call back.
0:16:57 > 0:17:01Well, that is in character...so, you know, don't take it personally.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04Are you still...?
0:17:04 > 0:17:07No, sober...been for a few years.
0:17:09 > 0:17:10Your father?
0:17:10 > 0:17:13Yeah, he's done the same, turned his life around.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15He's the mayor of the city now.
0:17:18 > 0:17:22I miss your sarcasm. We don't have anybody like you here.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25No, all right. Well, ta-ta for now, OK?
0:17:32 > 0:17:33How's the dad?
0:17:36 > 0:17:37Dylan, can I help?
0:17:37 > 0:17:39I'm just about in, thank you.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42Come on, little man.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46Can I have the FAST scanner, please, I want to do an ultrasound.
0:17:50 > 0:17:51Robyn?
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Can you just go back to wherever you were hiding?
0:17:59 > 0:18:00Just hear me out, please.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03There's a baby in here fighting for his life
0:18:03 > 0:18:06and he's just lost his parents, you really want to talk about you?
0:18:06 > 0:18:10Not now, no. Robyn! Whatever that is, I don't think it's working.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Can you please just go away?
0:18:12 > 0:18:13Let me see Charlotte.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16No.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Do you know what you can do?
0:18:47 > 0:18:48Robyn?
0:18:50 > 0:18:51Hey.
0:18:51 > 0:18:55Don't you hey me, mister - taking off like that. Some kind of martyr.
0:18:55 > 0:18:57I'm so sorry.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00You will be. Baby's got what you've got...
0:19:01 > 0:19:03..glioblastoma.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06Please, that's not fair.
0:19:06 > 0:19:10No, no, no, no, no, no.
0:19:13 > 0:19:14Ssh.
0:19:46 > 0:19:47I told a lie.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50I said I only go for married men,
0:19:50 > 0:19:52I also go for stubborn ones.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Guilty as charged.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05I wanted to see Dylan.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07I also want to try
0:20:07 > 0:20:10and prolong your life a bit while I was at it.
0:20:11 > 0:20:12Thank you.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19Did you ever see the movie, 9½ Weeks?
0:20:19 > 0:20:22No, but I'd like to live that long.
0:20:24 > 0:20:25We're going to get along just fine.
0:20:29 > 0:20:30Ha-ha!
0:20:34 > 0:20:36We're not going to Holby, are we?
0:20:37 > 0:20:40De-De's toytown hospital can't handle what I got, sweetheart.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42De-De?
0:20:42 > 0:20:46Don't ask. And you - zip it.
0:20:51 > 0:20:55This is Jeffers, he's not allowed to speak because he's a moron.
0:20:58 > 0:20:59Ta-da!
0:21:00 > 0:21:03Close your mouths, boys.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06See, De-De, you can have a little toy like this
0:21:06 > 0:21:09in about, oh, 30 years or so.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Yes, but we try not to discriminate against the poor patients, though.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15Well, here's the culprit.
0:21:15 > 0:21:16That's my head?
0:21:16 > 0:21:18Yes, keep up, sweetie.
0:21:18 > 0:21:22This glioblastoma is very impressive.
0:21:22 > 0:21:24I want your head when you die.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28- That's tactful. - From a surgical perspective,
0:21:28 > 0:21:30it is very aggressively attached.
0:21:34 > 0:21:38I can't remove any more than that without risking serious damage.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41There seems to be quite a lot left.
0:21:41 > 0:21:42Yes.
0:21:46 > 0:21:51OK. Well, forget tact, I'm a Welshman.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53You can say it.
0:21:55 > 0:21:56I want to go deeper.
0:21:57 > 0:22:03If successful, I am confident you will be here for your baby's birth.
0:22:03 > 0:22:07If unsuccessful, the surgery will cause major damage
0:22:07 > 0:22:10and you will be in a vegetative state or dead.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12De-De, I told you years ago
0:22:12 > 0:22:15if the news is bad it's easier to remember and harder to say.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19Yes, I've tried to remember that.
0:22:21 > 0:22:22Chances?
0:22:22 > 0:22:2450-50.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27OK.
0:22:29 > 0:22:30OK.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36Heads, I go for it, obviously.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47OK, let's do it.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49I'll start getting the wheels in motion.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53Leave a message after the tone -
0:22:53 > 0:22:56I'm probably dead, though, so I'll get back to you...
0:22:56 > 0:22:57in your nightmares!
0:22:57 > 0:22:58ANSWER PHONE BEEPS
0:22:58 > 0:23:00Glen, it's me.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Robyn has given birth, to a baby girl,
0:23:02 > 0:23:04but she's very premature, though.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07So, well, I'm sure you understand what I'm saying.
0:23:09 > 0:23:10It might be a bit touch-and-go.
0:23:33 > 0:23:34Go on. It's fine, it's fine.
0:23:43 > 0:23:44Hello.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54Can I hold her?
0:23:55 > 0:23:59No, I'm afraid any infection at this stage would be catastrophic.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02She's strong.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05No, Glen, not strong enough for that, I'm afraid...
0:24:05 > 0:24:09No, man, I mean... look at her parents.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14She's a little bruiser in the making.
0:24:15 > 0:24:16Going to be tough.
0:24:19 > 0:24:23- WHISPERS:- I'll make you a deal, little one.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27You pull through this...
0:24:27 > 0:24:30..and your daddy will too, I promise.
0:24:31 > 0:24:32Glen, Robyn's coming.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38Dylan? It's really late.
0:24:38 > 0:24:43Yes, I couldn't sleep... I thought I'd come and pay a visit.
0:24:46 > 0:24:47It's OK, it's all right.
0:24:56 > 0:24:57Have you had breakfast?
0:24:58 > 0:25:00- No.- Keep it that way.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07Come here. Come here.
0:25:09 > 0:25:13I am the best at this. Do you believe me?
0:25:14 > 0:25:16I daren't not.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21It will be all right.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24WHAT?!
0:25:26 > 0:25:27I'll see you there.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37Are you all right, Glen?
0:25:40 > 0:25:42Can you give that to...
0:25:44 > 0:25:45Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. OK.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47Just in case.
0:25:49 > 0:25:53Been thinking... cancer is pretty random, right?
0:25:53 > 0:25:56There's no reason why I got this, I just did. Yes?
0:25:56 > 0:25:58That's right, yes.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00So there's no point asking, "Why me?"
0:26:00 > 0:26:04Or feeling cursed or blaming that cigarette I had when I was 15?
0:26:06 > 0:26:07Is there's a point to this?
0:26:07 > 0:26:10This is pretty messed up,
0:26:10 > 0:26:13but what if there was somebody up there who knew that I was going to
0:26:13 > 0:26:17leave Robyn all pregnant and that, and gave me cancer retrospectively?
0:26:17 > 0:26:19Because I'm a bad man?
0:26:19 > 0:26:23I don't know where to begin with the holes in that thinking, Glen.
0:26:28 > 0:26:29Look at that.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33Good.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37Unfortunately, I hold my scalpel with this hand...
0:26:40 > 0:26:42Hold on a minute.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46Would you get in here?
0:26:48 > 0:26:50I don't want you listening to him.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52I need to know it's the anaesthesia and not boredom.
0:26:54 > 0:26:58OK, Glen, I will be asking you these questions
0:26:58 > 0:27:00during the procedure. It's just to ascertain
0:27:00 > 0:27:03that your speech and memory functions haven't been impaired.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Well, he's going to knock me out, isn't he?
0:27:05 > 0:27:07I've been through this.
0:27:07 > 0:27:12We will give you a local anaesthetic just to numb the pain
0:27:12 > 0:27:13when we go into the skull.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15And then after that you'll be awake throughout. OK?
0:27:17 > 0:27:19OK, thank you.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22Paediatrics are on their way down. All right?
0:27:22 > 0:27:24This was supposed to be a happy day.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27Well, he's going to pull through, so I think we've done a good job.
0:27:28 > 0:27:32Yeah, but without his parents. Babies need their parents.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35Yes, yes. They do.
0:27:37 > 0:27:40How could you not tell me that he was still alive?!
0:27:41 > 0:27:44I was trying to do the right thing for you.
0:27:44 > 0:27:45That's what Glen had me believe.
0:27:45 > 0:27:49Of all the people in the world, he does not know what is right for me.
0:27:49 > 0:27:50Quite.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52OK, ultimately, what does he want?
0:27:52 > 0:27:55I think he just wants to see his daughter.
0:28:01 > 0:28:02I'm busy.
0:28:03 > 0:28:05All right, Glen?
0:28:05 > 0:28:07Yes.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09Haven't seen you for a while?
0:28:09 > 0:28:14No, not since I left Robyn at the altar trying to avoid death.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17Anyway, I've got some good news for once.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19Oh, yeah?
0:28:19 > 0:28:23It was the childminders. His mum and dad are on their way in now.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25It was the childminders in the car.
0:28:25 > 0:28:29Oh. Not good news for the childminders, is it?
0:28:29 > 0:28:33No, but at least the little one's got both his parents now, so...
0:28:33 > 0:28:34Anyway, be well.
0:28:42 > 0:28:44What have you done here. What's this?
0:28:44 > 0:28:49Well, if I'm going to have to listen to you throughout all this,
0:28:49 > 0:28:51I want to be asked interesting questions.
0:28:51 > 0:28:54Fair enough. What's your middle name?
0:28:55 > 0:28:57Dylan.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59- Is that true?- Mm-hm.
0:28:59 > 0:29:03OK. Who's the greatest footballer ever?
0:29:03 > 0:29:04Mark Hughes.
0:29:04 > 0:29:07Oh, don't be silly, my boy Ronaldo makes him
0:29:07 > 0:29:09look like a lower league amateur.
0:29:09 > 0:29:11Hey, hey, hey, blasphemy.
0:29:11 > 0:29:13Let's take a little look see, shall we?
0:29:13 > 0:29:15- Oh!- Er, wrong end, Doctor!
0:29:15 > 0:29:18Nonsense. This is where every men keeps his brains.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26- See my serious face?- Mm-hm.
0:29:26 > 0:29:28It's on from now.
0:29:31 > 0:29:32WHIRRING
0:29:32 > 0:29:33It's going to be OK.
0:29:40 > 0:29:41What month are we in, Glen?
0:29:43 > 0:29:44I'm hoping it's still April.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47You can't rush these things.
0:29:47 > 0:29:48Mother's maiden name?
0:29:50 > 0:29:52Lettuce.
0:29:52 > 0:29:56OK. Um...greatest footballer ever?
0:29:56 > 0:29:58Robbie Savage.
0:30:01 > 0:30:02Are you all right, Glen?
0:30:02 > 0:30:06Ah! Got both of you, didn't I?
0:30:06 > 0:30:08OK, Glen, I need you to take this seriously, please.
0:30:08 > 0:30:13Listen. If I'm going to go out, I'm going to go out laughing.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15OK. Greatest footballer ever?
0:30:17 > 0:30:18Mark Hughes.
0:30:20 > 0:30:22Your first maths teacher's name?
0:30:22 > 0:30:24Mr Unwin.
0:30:24 > 0:30:28OK, gents, we're getting to the important part, don't sneeze.
0:30:37 > 0:30:38Middle name, Glen?
0:30:39 > 0:30:41Dylan.
0:30:43 > 0:30:46How are you feeling at the moment, all right?
0:30:46 > 0:30:48Tired.
0:30:48 > 0:30:49OK. Middle name?
0:30:51 > 0:30:52Tired.
0:30:52 > 0:30:56Can you hold my hand, Glen? Just up here.
0:30:59 > 0:31:00Can you hold my hand?
0:31:02 > 0:31:06Didn't think it was that kind of... er... thing.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09I think we've got a seizure here, Zsa Zsa, is it possible to halt?
0:31:09 > 0:31:12No, I can't stop right now. We've got a bleed.
0:31:12 > 0:31:13Suction and gauze.
0:31:13 > 0:31:15Glen?
0:31:15 > 0:31:18More gauze. De-De, this is not good.
0:31:18 > 0:31:20I need 5 milligrams diazepam IV, please.
0:31:20 > 0:31:24Diathermy and clotting activator. I've got to stop this bleeding.
0:31:28 > 0:31:29RESPIRATOR PUMPS
0:31:41 > 0:31:45It's now or never, my flight leaves this evening.
0:31:54 > 0:31:56Dylan, we have to see if he can breathe on his own.
0:31:58 > 0:32:02I know I'm in emergency medicine, but I do understand.
0:32:03 > 0:32:05I'll leave you to it, OK?
0:32:17 > 0:32:18KNOCK ON DOOR
0:32:23 > 0:32:24Here he is.
0:32:26 > 0:32:28Kept us all waiting there, didn't you?
0:32:30 > 0:32:31How are you doing, all right?
0:32:34 > 0:32:36How is he?
0:32:36 > 0:32:38No vocal capacity...
0:32:39 > 0:32:42..and diminished physical movement on the entire right-hand side.
0:32:49 > 0:32:54This speech therapist came highly recommended.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04Keep me posted, will you?
0:33:04 > 0:33:07If something pops up, like a picture of Glen and his daughter,
0:33:07 > 0:33:10I'd be miffed if you didn't send me a copy.
0:33:10 > 0:33:12Yeah, understood.
0:33:18 > 0:33:21De-De. The tumour is at bay.
0:33:21 > 0:33:24He's got to learn to walk and talk and use his right arm,
0:33:24 > 0:33:26yeah, yeah, I know, I know.
0:33:28 > 0:33:32I used to think you were such an alien,
0:33:32 > 0:33:36totally incapable of human interaction.
0:33:37 > 0:33:42Then you and I got drunk one night and you told me these horror stories
0:33:42 > 0:33:48about you and your crazy family and it all made sense.
0:33:48 > 0:33:50Every word of it true.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54Well, I think you have come to love the earthlings.
0:33:55 > 0:33:59You overstate it a fraction... OK.
0:33:59 > 0:34:01You know what I think this is about?
0:34:01 > 0:34:03You reunited a father and his child.
0:34:07 > 0:34:10Neurosurgeon, psychiatrist, what can I say? You must be a genius.
0:34:10 > 0:34:12I am.
0:34:12 > 0:34:13And I fly.
0:34:13 > 0:34:14Hmm!
0:34:17 > 0:34:18Goodbye, De-De.
0:34:22 > 0:34:26You know, I'm sorry that I didn't keep in contact...
0:34:26 > 0:34:28I...
0:34:28 > 0:34:31I think you must be the reason I survived medical school
0:34:31 > 0:34:34and you're...a fabulous surgeon.
0:34:36 > 0:34:38I am honoured to know you.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48Good luck to us all.
0:34:49 > 0:34:51Yes, good luck.
0:35:10 > 0:35:12Don't touch that!
0:35:13 > 0:35:15You couldn't lift an eyelid.
0:35:23 > 0:35:25So it's true? About Glen?
0:35:25 > 0:35:31Yes, but don't do anything, Max. He can literally just go away.
0:35:38 > 0:35:39Lift going down.
0:35:44 > 0:35:46Do you know what's worse than this?
0:35:46 > 0:35:49- No.- The fact that you've made me jealous of my own daughter.
0:35:49 > 0:35:51Eh?!
0:35:51 > 0:35:54You've come back for her. Not me.
0:35:54 > 0:35:57You've come back to hold her, You left me, as easy as that.
0:35:57 > 0:35:58Robyn, please.
0:35:58 > 0:36:02No, no, no, no! There is no, "Robyn, please."
0:36:02 > 0:36:06Hourly feeds throughout the night, colic, sickness, a stoma,
0:36:06 > 0:36:08a house fire!
0:36:08 > 0:36:12You do not get to waltz into her life having skipped all of that.
0:36:19 > 0:36:20Robyn, Robyn...
0:36:23 > 0:36:24KNOCK ON DOOR
0:36:27 > 0:36:29How's the patient doing, all right?
0:36:30 > 0:36:33OK, all right, shouldn't you be talking by now?
0:36:37 > 0:36:39- LABOURED:- I sound thick.
0:36:41 > 0:36:43You sound a great deal better you did than last time I was here.
0:36:45 > 0:36:46Yeah, OK.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52There she is, the little infant.
0:37:05 > 0:37:06A few weeks now.
0:37:09 > 0:37:10Till?
0:37:25 > 0:37:26We?
0:37:26 > 0:37:29No, I think, when you finally decide to "surprise" Robyn,
0:37:29 > 0:37:32I don't think I'm going to be anywhere nearby.
0:37:40 > 0:37:42No, no, no, I'm not a gambling man.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45All right, then, ten.
0:37:45 > 0:37:46Huh?
0:37:51 > 0:37:53That count, does it?
0:38:03 > 0:38:06You must have known how she was going to react.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09Get me over the line, mate, come on.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11I wasn't supposed to be here when you tried.
0:38:11 > 0:38:14Oh, yeah, good point... £10, cough up.
0:38:15 > 0:38:16Hang on.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18Something good might as well come out of today.
0:38:20 > 0:38:23Didn't I get you some free brain surgery?
0:38:23 > 0:38:26All right, then, I'll call Zsa Zsa, and tell her you're trying
0:38:26 > 0:38:28to wangle yourself out of a bet, then, shall I?
0:38:28 > 0:38:31Do what you please. Absolutely unbelievable.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39Oi, where are you going?
0:38:41 > 0:38:42Cheek.
0:38:47 > 0:38:49I have now officially seen it all.
0:39:07 > 0:39:09- Shall we leave them to it?- Yeah.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18Are you welling up?
0:39:18 > 0:39:20- What?- Let me see.
0:39:20 > 0:39:21Get off.
0:39:21 > 0:39:22KNOCK ON DOOR
0:39:26 > 0:39:29Dylan. How long have you known?
0:39:29 > 0:39:31Let's save the recriminations, David,
0:39:31 > 0:39:34- I need to speak to Robyn, really. - Answer him and you can.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38Since Charlie's stag.
0:39:40 > 0:39:42What do you want, Dylan?
0:39:42 > 0:39:45I understand that you don't want to speak to Glen.
0:39:45 > 0:39:47But some time ago, he gave me this.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50It's probably worth a look.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53Look, I already know, he wants to hold his daughter.
0:39:53 > 0:39:55Yes. I believe he does, yes.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57Well, who was there to hold me through all of this?
0:39:57 > 0:40:00Everyone here.
0:40:00 > 0:40:02Glen only had me, poor thing.
0:40:05 > 0:40:06Fine.
0:40:15 > 0:40:21So...it's up to your mum when you see this, she'll know.
0:40:21 > 0:40:22Um...
0:40:22 > 0:40:26I'm about to have an operation which I guess is scary...
0:40:27 > 0:40:30..and there's a big chance I won't survive.
0:40:30 > 0:40:34But the truth is, even if it is successful,
0:40:34 > 0:40:39I won't be around when you're a teenager, a young woman,
0:40:39 > 0:40:42so this is worth doing, either way.
0:40:43 > 0:40:47But before we start... I need to speak to your mum.
0:40:47 > 0:40:50I've got the world's biggest apology to make to her.
0:40:53 > 0:40:55Can I have some privacy, please?
0:40:55 > 0:40:57- Yes, of course. - Yes, yes.
0:41:02 > 0:41:05Dylan, Dylan, you knew when I was ill?
0:41:05 > 0:41:09- Yes.- You knew when we were in France?- Yes.- And...
0:41:09 > 0:41:12I knew, David, all right? For God's sake, drop it.
0:41:13 > 0:41:14Ow!
0:41:14 > 0:41:16HE SCREAMS
0:41:18 > 0:41:19Ah, my knee!
0:41:21 > 0:41:24Have they told you how long your knee's going to take to heal?
0:41:24 > 0:41:27The baby will be walking before me.
0:41:27 > 0:41:30Well, take it from me, Glen, that is not going to help.
0:41:31 > 0:41:35Go home, Dylan, you've never really cared, so you can stop now.
0:41:35 > 0:41:36- Is that right?- Yes.
0:41:38 > 0:41:42They all think I'm dead and they're getting along just fine...
0:41:42 > 0:41:45- ..let's just leave them to it.- Fine.
0:41:45 > 0:41:47The coin was tails, by the way.
0:41:47 > 0:41:50- Was it?- Yes, I couldn't even listen when the universe was trying
0:41:50 > 0:41:54- to tell me something.- You know, Glen, I'm a man of simple pleasures.
0:41:54 > 0:41:59I don't need much, just a quiet boat, a dog, a good book.
0:41:59 > 0:42:03But since meeting you, and finding you in your little hole
0:42:03 > 0:42:05there are two additional things that I need.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07I need to have a better relationship with my mentor,
0:42:07 > 0:42:09and I need to see you reunited with your family.
0:42:09 > 0:42:12For the sake of the baby, for the sake of Robyn, for your sake.
0:42:12 > 0:42:14But also for mine.
0:42:14 > 0:42:15Why?
0:42:15 > 0:42:19Why? Because after everything that the universe has thrown at you
0:42:19 > 0:42:21after everything you've had to put up with,
0:42:21 > 0:42:23do you know what I think of, when I think of you?
0:42:23 > 0:42:25A big grin.
0:42:25 > 0:42:29A soppy great Welshman laughing in the face of death
0:42:29 > 0:42:31and I would like to see that rewarded.
0:42:31 > 0:42:35I would like to know that, just for once, the universe can be fair.
0:42:36 > 0:42:38That's If, isn't it? Do you know If?
0:42:38 > 0:42:42"If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
0:42:42 > 0:42:44"To serve your turn long after they are gone
0:42:44 > 0:42:47"And so hold on when there is nothing in you
0:42:47 > 0:42:49"Except the will which says to them 'Hold on!'"
0:42:49 > 0:42:51- Hm?- Wow.
0:42:53 > 0:42:54Are you a poet?
0:42:54 > 0:42:57No, it's Kipling, Rudyard Kipling.
0:43:00 > 0:43:02Then I like his poetry and his cakes.
0:43:13 > 0:43:16Never had you down as a motivational speaker.
0:43:16 > 0:43:19Yeah, I'm not, I know someone that is.
0:43:19 > 0:43:21Put your back into it, boy!
0:43:23 > 0:43:28I'll give £50 to charity for that T-shirt. Unwashed.
0:43:30 > 0:43:32Don't make me hang up on you again.
0:43:33 > 0:43:37You do that again, I will fly over the pond and put you over my knee.
0:43:38 > 0:43:41Fixed your broomstick, have you?
0:43:41 > 0:43:42£100.
0:43:43 > 0:43:44- Deal.- Keep going.
0:43:46 > 0:43:48The sweatier the better.
0:43:57 > 0:43:59Listen, mate...
0:44:00 > 0:44:04I just want to say I feel terrible for not letting you know.
0:44:04 > 0:44:06You were always there for me...
0:44:07 > 0:44:10and even though you went a bit...
0:44:13 > 0:44:16It's all right. I've got something for you.
0:44:19 > 0:44:22Why does everybody keep walking out?
0:44:22 > 0:44:23Come on, chop, chop.
0:44:28 > 0:44:30Just a couple more moments, there's two more...
0:44:30 > 0:44:32It's all right.
0:44:55 > 0:44:57Thought you may as well get one wear out of it.
0:45:06 > 0:45:07Hello.
0:45:10 > 0:45:11Bo, bo, bo!
0:45:14 > 0:45:17- WHISPERS:- I told you we'd both make it.
0:45:21 > 0:45:22Shall we begin?
0:45:23 > 0:45:24Yes.
0:45:29 > 0:45:32You've still got a long way to go with me yet.
0:45:35 > 0:45:39Would the Godparents like to join us, please?
0:45:45 > 0:45:51A warm welcome to you all, but especially to Charlotte.
0:45:55 > 0:46:00I'm not a religious man, but, if God is real,
0:46:00 > 0:46:04then he owes me and this is what I want from him -
0:46:04 > 0:46:09for you to never be visited by such tragedy,
0:46:09 > 0:46:13for you to be happy, healthy...
0:46:14 > 0:46:17..content, in whatever you do.
0:46:20 > 0:46:23But, most importantly, don't be like me.
0:46:25 > 0:46:28Face your fears,
0:46:28 > 0:46:31accept help and trust those who love you.
0:46:32 > 0:46:36Never, ever think you are not worth it.
0:46:39 > 0:46:40Never.
