0:00:24 > 0:00:26- You better put that down... - Give that to me!

0:00:26 > 0:00:27..before I put you down!

0:00:35 > 0:00:37I'm no-one's punchbag now!

0:00:37 > 0:00:40What have you got to say for yourself?

0:00:40 > 0:00:41What?!

0:00:41 > 0:00:43POLICE SIREN WAILS

0:00:43 > 0:00:44Tell it to the police!

0:00:47 > 0:00:51Once Dr Wheeler's done, we'll get him back to the dry cell.

0:00:52 > 0:00:54All yours, gents.

0:00:55 > 0:00:56You smell like a distillery.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58You got everything?

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Yes, I've got the forensic samples

0:01:01 > 0:01:04and a blood sample to check for alcohol levels.

0:01:04 > 0:01:07I recorded some bruising on his body which are consistent with...

0:01:07 > 0:01:08She was into it.

0:01:08 > 0:01:11..with someone trying to fight him off.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13- Couldn't get enough of it. - Cheers, doc.

0:01:13 > 0:01:14Right, let's go.

0:01:18 > 0:01:22SIREN WAILS

0:01:31 > 0:01:356388 to control. I'm at the scene in Cranbourne Gardens.

0:01:35 > 0:01:38I need an ambulance here, immediately. You're Heston Carter?

0:01:38 > 0:01:41Dr Heston Carter, yes. I apprehended this man.

0:01:41 > 0:01:44He was ransacking my house and I defended myself.

0:01:44 > 0:01:47- You used the cricket bat, sir? - Yeah, I caught him in the act.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49I asked him to leave and he refused.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52- Was he armed?- Yes.- What with?

0:01:52 > 0:01:53I'm telling you, he was!

0:01:53 > 0:01:56Don't worry, sir. I'm sure we'll find it somewhere.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Ah, here it is!

0:02:00 > 0:02:05- Sir, please, put it down.- I wager it has his fingerprints on it!

0:02:05 > 0:02:07He's wearing gloves.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10Come and see the damage he's done to my house!

0:02:12 > 0:02:14Oi! Service!

0:02:14 > 0:02:16- Calm yourself down.- Oi!

0:02:19 > 0:02:20I'm moving you to a new cell.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22- I've got a complaint.- Oh, yeah?

0:02:22 > 0:02:25That doctor? He's gone home?

0:02:25 > 0:02:27Yes. Why?

0:02:27 > 0:02:28He was drunk.

0:02:30 > 0:02:31The only one drunk was you.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33I had a couple of beers. That's all.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35Check the blood samples.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39- My brief here yet? - He's been held up.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43You like to think you've got a bit of power over people, don't you?

0:02:44 > 0:02:48Is this what you were thinking when you raped that poor girl?

0:02:49 > 0:02:52Just let me know when my brief gets here, yeah?

0:02:56 > 0:03:00- You hit him with the bat in here? - Yes. I was defending myself.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02Then he carried on out into the street?

0:03:02 > 0:03:04Yes.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06Did he threaten you?

0:03:06 > 0:03:08He broke in and he had a screwdriver!

0:03:08 > 0:03:10Sir, I need to be clear about this.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13Did he actually directly threaten you?

0:03:13 > 0:03:15I felt in danger. He's a criminal

0:03:15 > 0:03:18and I have the right to protect my property.

0:03:46 > 0:03:47I'm a GP. I'll have a look.

0:03:47 > 0:03:50The paramedics are more than qualified.

0:03:50 > 0:03:51Really not a good idea, sir.

0:03:51 > 0:03:55I was minding my own business getting ready for bed

0:03:55 > 0:03:56and he broke in.

0:03:58 > 0:04:00You believe that, don't you?

0:04:00 > 0:04:02What I believe isn't important, sir.

0:04:08 > 0:04:10You don't believe him, do you?

0:04:10 > 0:04:13What I believe doesn't matter. It's a rape case.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16If this gets to court and the blood samples

0:04:16 > 0:04:18and the evidence on the scratches aren't squeaky clean

0:04:18 > 0:04:20the defence'll rip it to shreds it's as simple as that.

0:04:20 > 0:04:24I'm not happy doing something that'll destroy the reputation of a colleague.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27What about the girl who's been raped? Doesn't she matter?

0:04:27 > 0:04:30Of course she does. If there's any discrepancy between the two samples,

0:04:30 > 0:04:32the defence'll destroy them both.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35Yeah, and if his barrister starts getting tricky about the evidence,

0:04:35 > 0:04:39and your samples are identical to Wheeler's, it backs up the evidence

0:04:39 > 0:04:40and saves his reputation.

0:04:40 > 0:04:43C'mon, Jimmi. This is about the justice of a young woman.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48Oh, what is this, eh? All doctors together and to hell with the victim?

0:04:48 > 0:04:50That's not fair. We don't know that Dr Wheeler was drinking.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52I need to speak to him.

0:04:52 > 0:04:53And is...

0:04:53 > 0:04:57"And is" what? Is there something you're not telling me?

0:05:00 > 0:05:02How is the thief?

0:05:02 > 0:05:03We'll know for sure later.

0:05:03 > 0:05:06That could have been me, you know.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09Shouldn't you arrest him? I've all but done your job for you.

0:05:09 > 0:05:12We usually wait till they're conscious, sir.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15If it's appropriate, then he'll be placed under arrest.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17If it's appropriate?!

0:05:17 > 0:05:20Shouldn't you go with him? In case he tries to escape?

0:05:20 > 0:05:22He won't try to escape, sir.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24You made sure of that.

0:05:24 > 0:05:27What's that supposed to mean? I'm not the criminal here.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30I'm arresting you on suspicion of assault.

0:05:30 > 0:05:35You do not have to say anything but it may harm your defence if you do not mention...

0:05:35 > 0:05:37CONTINUES MIRANDA RIGHTS

0:05:37 > 0:05:38You're arresting me?

0:05:38 > 0:05:40- Me?!- Yes, sir.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42This is outrageous.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44You should be thanking me for catching a dangerous criminal,

0:05:44 > 0:05:46not arresting me!

0:05:46 > 0:05:48I am the victim here, not that...

0:05:48 > 0:05:51Unconscious man on his way to hospital?

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Well, I refuse. I mean, do you know who I am?

0:05:53 > 0:05:55Sir, get in the back of the car.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57Can I at least get some clothes?

0:05:57 > 0:05:59No, sir. We'll need what you're wearing as evidence.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01Well, I'm going to speak to your superior.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14Two weeks ago, this PC came to speak to me,

0:06:14 > 0:06:17a bloke had been arrested for drunk driving.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20Wheeler took the bloods. The bloke accused Wheeler of being drunk.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Well, that makes it even more important that

0:06:23 > 0:06:25we cover ourselves with this.

0:06:25 > 0:06:26He was just trying his luck.

0:06:26 > 0:06:30You hear all sorts of accusations about police officers, doctors, everyone in here.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32I still want you to retake his blood and check injuries.

0:06:33 > 0:06:35That's a last resort, given the risks.

0:06:35 > 0:06:38And as soon as you can. We can't keep him in a dry cell forever.

0:06:38 > 0:06:42Who's to say the drunk driver and your suspect don't know each other?

0:06:42 > 0:06:45Drunk driver mentions that he met a doctor who was drunk on the job,

0:06:45 > 0:06:47your suspect remembers hearing this

0:06:47 > 0:06:50and sees an angle that will help his case, you know?

0:06:50 > 0:06:52If we start taking more samples,

0:06:52 > 0:06:55it will flag up to the defence that there's a problem.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57Let me speak to Wheeler, find out what's going on.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00You find out if the other two know each other.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13C'mon. Out.

0:07:13 > 0:07:14You have to get out.

0:07:32 > 0:07:35You took forensic samples, blood samples

0:07:35 > 0:07:38and recorded some injuries with a suspect...

0:07:38 > 0:07:40Kyle West.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43Yes, accused of rape. How did that go?

0:07:44 > 0:07:46Well, they called me in

0:07:46 > 0:07:48because Kyle West has made an accusation against you.

0:07:50 > 0:07:51You were drunk.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56Good. I'm sure it's rubbish. I just needed to check with you before...

0:07:57 > 0:08:00No, no, no, that won't be necessary.

0:08:00 > 0:08:02Dave, there's no need for you to... come in.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04No, Dave...just stay there.

0:08:09 > 0:08:10For the benefit of the tape,

0:08:10 > 0:08:13can you confirm that you're waiving your right to a solicitor?

0:08:13 > 0:08:15I don't need a solicitor to clear this up.

0:08:17 > 0:08:20The burglar was hit by a cricket bat.

0:08:20 > 0:08:23Item FC1. Can you confirm this cricket bat's yours?

0:08:23 > 0:08:24Yes, of course it is.

0:08:24 > 0:08:27This is the bat you hit the injured man with?

0:08:27 > 0:08:29Yes. Look, I am the victim here.

0:08:29 > 0:08:31- Do you keep it in your bedroom? - Yes.

0:08:31 > 0:08:34Why?

0:08:34 > 0:08:35For self-defence?

0:08:35 > 0:08:38It's ornamental. An Englishman's home is his castle.

0:08:38 > 0:08:40Doesn't that mean anything anymore?

0:08:40 > 0:08:44- Can you restrict yourself to answering the questions, please? - I haven't committed a crime!

0:08:44 > 0:08:47I woke up, there was an armed burglar ransacking my house.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49What am I supposed to do?

0:08:49 > 0:08:52Hold the door open for him so he doesn't trip up and hurt himself?

0:08:52 > 0:08:53Was he in your bedroom?

0:08:53 > 0:08:54No.

0:08:54 > 0:08:58So you took the bat from your bedroom down to the kitchen.

0:08:58 > 0:09:00This was before you knew he was armed.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02Yes. No. I...

0:09:02 > 0:09:03You assaulted him in the kitchen?

0:09:03 > 0:09:05I didn't assault him!

0:09:05 > 0:09:07Will you stop putting words in my mouth?

0:09:07 > 0:09:09How many times did you strike him?

0:09:09 > 0:09:12- Is that important?- Yes. Once?

0:09:12 > 0:09:13Yes.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16You're sure it was only once?

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Yes, I told you. In my kitchen.

0:09:18 > 0:09:20I'm not some animal!

0:09:20 > 0:09:22I am trying to help you clear this up,

0:09:22 > 0:09:24but this arrest is outrageous.

0:09:24 > 0:09:25I have done nothing wrong.

0:09:25 > 0:09:29I am a doctor, I am a partner at The Mill Health Centre,

0:09:29 > 0:09:31I am a respected member of the community

0:09:31 > 0:09:35and you should just stop this nonsense right now and release me!

0:09:41 > 0:09:42This way.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09Yeah, can I speak with DS Cooper, please?

0:10:10 > 0:10:12Come on.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20Rob! Someone sensible at last.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23Can you have a word with this man and make him see sense.

0:10:23 > 0:10:25I'll call you back.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48Dr Carter's not a violent fella!

0:10:48 > 0:10:52The man is unconscious. In hospital. There's holes in his story.

0:10:52 > 0:10:55He says he hit him once, the man's got severe head

0:10:55 > 0:10:57and shoulder injuries.

0:10:57 > 0:10:58He's lying to us.

0:10:58 > 0:11:01C'mon, Cooky, sometimes people's heads are spinning.

0:11:01 > 0:11:04They barely know what day it is, never mind what happened.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06The details'll come back to him soon enough.

0:11:06 > 0:11:08Yes, once he's got his story straight.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10What he's told me doesn't match up with what I've seen.

0:11:10 > 0:11:12What're you asking me to do, Sarge? Drop it?

0:11:12 > 0:11:15No, just use some common sense.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18Don't forget someone like him will get a lot of public sympathy.

0:11:18 > 0:11:21He's helped a hell of a lot of people.

0:11:21 > 0:11:23You could come out of this looking bad.

0:11:23 > 0:11:27Someone like him?! He thinks he can do what he wants.

0:11:27 > 0:11:29He thinks he's above the law and he's made sure I know it.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32He's been giving it the big "Don't you know who I am?"

0:11:32 > 0:11:35All right, well, Heston can be a bit full of himself.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37But there's no harm in him. He's a decent bloke.

0:11:37 > 0:11:41He almost murdered that man. Now he thinks he can lord it and lie to us.

0:11:41 > 0:11:42I'm not having it, Sarge.

0:11:45 > 0:11:50- I'm appalled that you're giving the time of day to these lies! - Dave, I'm giving you a heads up.

0:11:50 > 0:11:51I can smell the alcohol on you from here.

0:11:51 > 0:11:55I had a half a glass when I got home, when I was off the rota!

0:11:55 > 0:11:58You can only have been home for five minutes! Did you drive in?

0:11:58 > 0:11:59Yes.

0:12:01 > 0:12:04One, I'm not over the limit.

0:12:04 > 0:12:08Two, I was on my way to bed when you called me!

0:12:08 > 0:12:11So are you going to take a breathalyser test?

0:12:11 > 0:12:13Let's all take a step back.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16I didn't ask him to come in, but I did inform him of this situation.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19If it was me I'd come in as soon as I could to clear it up.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21This is a serious allegation. But this, maybe this, is our fault.

0:12:21 > 0:12:25Because if you have been drinking, it could lead to a rapist walking free.

0:12:25 > 0:12:28OK, Rob, could I have some time with Dr Wheeler please?

0:12:36 > 0:12:39Rob, Rob, thank goodness! How all this happened is beyond me.

0:12:39 > 0:12:40I was getting ready for bed...

0:12:40 > 0:12:42How can I be treated like a criminal

0:12:42 > 0:12:44when it was a criminal who broke into my home?

0:12:44 > 0:12:47Shhh, sit down, I don't have long.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49Do you want some advice?

0:12:49 > 0:12:51Absolutely. Any advice gratefully received.

0:12:51 > 0:12:55There's nothing wrong with defending yourself and most coppers in the station will be on your side.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58And the law will back up homeowners who use reasonable force

0:12:58 > 0:13:00to defend their property

0:13:00 > 0:13:03but I think you got a bit unlucky getting PC Cook.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06He's not a city boy, he's not streetwise,

0:13:06 > 0:13:09and he has this thing about people not being respectful towards the police.

0:13:09 > 0:13:12When have I ever been anything but respectful to the police?!

0:13:12 > 0:13:15And I think he thinks you haven't told him the whole truth.

0:13:17 > 0:13:20Well, I fear that...

0:13:21 > 0:13:22You fear what, Heston?

0:13:22 > 0:13:25I fear I may have told a bit of a fib.

0:13:25 > 0:13:27About hitting the thief once?

0:13:27 > 0:13:29It's OK, Cook told me. Did you hit him more than once?

0:13:29 > 0:13:32I'm not sure. I could see he was suspicious.

0:13:32 > 0:13:34He was trying to pick apart my story...

0:13:34 > 0:13:37Well, it's not a story, it's the truth!

0:13:37 > 0:13:39I wasn't thinking straight.

0:13:41 > 0:13:44I really am in the most dreadful trouble, aren't I?

0:13:45 > 0:13:49Right, listen, you didn't hear this from me

0:13:49 > 0:13:52and you definitely don't tell Cooky I told you this,

0:13:52 > 0:13:54but you need to get a lawyer.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56But I'm innocent! I don't need...

0:13:56 > 0:13:59It doesn't matter, Heston. You've told a lie.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01- That makes you look guilty. - Thank you.

0:14:01 > 0:14:04Oh, and Jimmi's here. Do you want me to send him down?

0:14:04 > 0:14:08No, I don't want anyone from The Mill knowing I'm here! Not Jimmi, not Julia, not Karen.

0:14:08 > 0:14:09I don't want them to know I'm involved!

0:14:24 > 0:14:28You need to think about how you can make this go away before it becomes a problem.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30I agree.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33If the defence finds out about this accusation,

0:14:33 > 0:14:35and it's unimaginable that they won't,

0:14:35 > 0:14:39or if they learn that you came in here...

0:14:39 > 0:14:45Look, what I'm saying is, if I was the defence, I'd ask why you didn't take a breathalyser test

0:14:45 > 0:14:48and provide a sample to prove the allegation is false?

0:14:48 > 0:14:51What? Because a suspect makes a ridiculous allegation?

0:14:51 > 0:14:54If I went around leaving blood samples every time I'm in here,

0:14:54 > 0:14:56I'd be like a pin cushion.

0:14:56 > 0:14:57But this is different.

0:14:57 > 0:14:59How so?

0:14:59 > 0:15:01You have a reputation.

0:15:01 > 0:15:05Are you saying my work has ever been anything less than professional?

0:15:05 > 0:15:07No.

0:15:07 > 0:15:11Are you saying that the samples I collected are less than watertight?

0:15:12 > 0:15:14No. But can you guarantee that they are?

0:15:17 > 0:15:18If you have a problem...

0:15:18 > 0:15:20I do NOT have a problem.

0:15:20 > 0:15:22If...

0:15:22 > 0:15:25you have a problem maybe this is the first time

0:15:25 > 0:15:26it has affected your work.

0:15:26 > 0:15:31This guy is lying! He's heard someone say something about me drinking

0:15:31 > 0:15:34and he sees can use it to discredit the case against him.

0:15:36 > 0:15:41And yes, I like a drink now and then. You don't?

0:15:41 > 0:15:45Sure. But I don't have a reputation.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48And I don't have two different suspects accusing me

0:15:48 > 0:15:49of drinking on the job.

0:15:49 > 0:15:53You know we can get called out at any moment.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55We're supposed to live like monks just in case?

0:15:55 > 0:15:58It's never more than one or two.

0:15:59 > 0:16:00Just take the test.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06I already told you. I had half a glass.

0:16:06 > 0:16:10Then if the suspect is lying, it'll give you something to fight back with.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18Is this all it takes...

0:16:18 > 0:16:25for criminals to damage a doctor's professional reputation?

0:16:27 > 0:16:31HE BLOWS

0:16:40 > 0:16:43Excuse me! Excuse me!

0:16:43 > 0:16:44Hello?

0:16:47 > 0:16:50I need to have a word with PC Cook.

0:16:55 > 0:16:5643.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58Maybe it was more than half a glass.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01But these things, they're not always accurate.

0:17:01 > 0:17:05And I'd brushed my teeth, used mouthwash, that can distort...

0:17:05 > 0:17:07All this in the five minutes you were home?

0:17:07 > 0:17:09You're way over the limit.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12I don't know if you've got a drink problem or not, only you do.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14But you're lying to yourself as well as to me.

0:17:16 > 0:17:18This is affecting your work.

0:17:18 > 0:17:22I think Dr Wheeler should remove himself from this case.

0:17:22 > 0:17:25Ill health. I will take over his police surgeon duties until...

0:17:25 > 0:17:27Hang on, I haven't agreed to any of this.

0:17:27 > 0:17:30Do you want to tell him more about the case?

0:17:30 > 0:17:33The girl went to a party. She's only 18.

0:17:33 > 0:17:36Met West. They started to flirt, she wanted to go, he wouldn't let her.

0:17:36 > 0:17:39She tried to resist, then he turned violent

0:17:39 > 0:17:41and he...

0:17:41 > 0:17:43how much do you want to know?

0:17:43 > 0:17:45You might be all his QC needs to destroy the case.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48Do you want that on your conscience?

0:17:48 > 0:17:50PHONE RINGS

0:17:50 > 0:17:52Yeah?

0:17:52 > 0:17:55Great, OK, I'm on my way.

0:18:01 > 0:18:05Gentlemen, I think we can be reasonable and resolve this now.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08What I said earlier wasn't entirely truthful.

0:18:08 > 0:18:09So you lied?

0:18:09 > 0:18:11No. I got caught up in all the excitement.

0:18:11 > 0:18:13You thought it was exciting?

0:18:13 > 0:18:16No, my mind was a bit of a blur.

0:18:16 > 0:18:20I think my memory's much sharper and clearer now

0:18:20 > 0:18:22and I think I must have hit him more than once.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25The man's unconscious. Tell us something we don't know.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28I felt in danger! He threatened me with a screwdriver.

0:18:28 > 0:18:30I was terrified!

0:18:30 > 0:18:34I was burgled a few weeks ago and you gentlemen weren't very...

0:18:34 > 0:18:38I thought I was going to have to deal with this on my own again.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40It could even have been the same chap.

0:18:42 > 0:18:46You admit you hit him repeatedly with a cricket bat?

0:18:47 > 0:18:50- Yes, I must have done. - How many times?

0:18:50 > 0:18:53- I don't know for sure.- You think that one might come back to you?

0:18:55 > 0:18:56Is he conscious?

0:18:56 > 0:19:00No. Got some nasty head injuries.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02And severe injuries to the shoulder.

0:19:02 > 0:19:05You're the doctor. What's the worst case scenario?

0:19:05 > 0:19:08Well, severe injury to the head can be fatal.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10But I didn't hit him on the head.

0:19:10 > 0:19:12A minute ago you were saying it was all a blur.

0:19:12 > 0:19:14Now you seem very sure of what happened.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16Are you 100% certain, sir?

0:19:16 > 0:19:18I think I need a lawyer.

0:19:20 > 0:19:24Right now, I think there's something in these accusations against Wheeler. We need to deal with it.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27Sarge, what's this about Lewis Jones?

0:19:27 > 0:19:29Yeah, you did him for drink driving?

0:19:29 > 0:19:34- Weeks ago.- He made an accusation against Dr Wheeler, that he was drunk when he took the samples.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36It didn't go anywhere, nothing came of it

0:19:36 > 0:19:39but Kyle West has just made the same accusation.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42- It might mess up the forensics. - I know what it means, Sarge.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45What we could do with now is Jones and West knowing each other,

0:19:45 > 0:19:46otherwise we've got a problem.

0:19:46 > 0:19:48They do!

0:19:48 > 0:19:50They had a failed business venture together two years ago.

0:19:50 > 0:19:53That's when I first came across Kyle West.

0:19:53 > 0:19:57- That's great. It's a stitch up. - You had me worried for a minute!

0:19:57 > 0:20:00Brilliant. All right, Jimmi, we'll go with Wheeler's samples.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03I still think there's a problem. I need to take over.

0:20:03 > 0:20:04Not anymore there isn't.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07Like you said, it'll just draw attention to forensics.

0:20:07 > 0:20:08No, we'll go with Wheeler's.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11- You called me in in the first place to take the samples again. - That was then.

0:20:11 > 0:20:14If Dr Wheeler's happy, I'm happy.

0:20:14 > 0:20:17If you've got some evidence other than the word of two lowlifes

0:20:17 > 0:20:20that he's been drinking on the job that's different.

0:20:42 > 0:20:45You don't give a man much time to think, do you?

0:20:45 > 0:20:47Tell me...

0:20:47 > 0:20:50how's the girl bearing up?

0:20:50 > 0:20:53She's brave, but she's in pieces.

0:20:53 > 0:20:57It's not easy for her and she knows how many blokes get away with this sort of thing.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59If the case falls apart and he gets out...

0:21:00 > 0:21:04She doesn't know what's in store, does she?

0:21:04 > 0:21:06Identification, the trial, everything.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08Probably not.

0:21:08 > 0:21:10But we'll do our best to get her ready for it.

0:21:10 > 0:21:14But we really need to be sound, right?

0:21:14 > 0:21:17If we're not, we're letting her down.

0:21:17 > 0:21:20Yeah, well, we've managed to establish that these two clowns

0:21:20 > 0:21:22know each other.

0:21:22 > 0:21:25If they push these accusations,

0:21:25 > 0:21:29we can argue that they've cooked this story up together.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31And the next time?

0:21:31 > 0:21:34- The next time? - The next time I come in...

0:21:34 > 0:21:38drunk. What...

0:21:38 > 0:21:39What if...

0:21:42 > 0:21:44I really need a drink now(!)

0:21:45 > 0:21:49I work unbelievable hours, what with the practice and this...

0:21:50 > 0:21:55I guess I use the drink as a crutch to get through.

0:21:55 > 0:21:59You know, I see some really sad cases here.

0:21:59 > 0:22:02They've all got a story, haven't they?

0:22:02 > 0:22:06- Oh, yeah.- Not just the victim. The victims are hard enough,

0:22:06 > 0:22:08but sometimes the criminals too.

0:22:08 > 0:22:12They've wrecked their own lives, and they know it.

0:22:13 > 0:22:17They see me and they think I'm the first person who's on their side.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22I get home and...

0:22:22 > 0:22:24I need to drown out their voices.

0:22:28 > 0:22:29You know what I mean?

0:22:29 > 0:22:31Yes.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34I think...

0:22:37 > 0:22:40..I need to resign as a police surgeon.

0:22:42 > 0:22:45I think...I need...

0:22:47 > 0:22:50..to take some time out of the practice too.

0:22:50 > 0:22:51Can you contact them?

0:22:52 > 0:22:54Yeah, I'll take care of it.

0:22:56 > 0:23:00I'll tell them you have some personal issues that need some time

0:23:00 > 0:23:04and they haven't affected your work yet but if they're not taken care of yet, they will.

0:23:04 > 0:23:05OK?

0:23:05 > 0:23:06Thank you.

0:23:15 > 0:23:16Pick up the car in the morning.

0:23:19 > 0:23:21This is the right thing, isn't it?

0:23:21 > 0:23:25Yes. There's plenty of help out there for you. Counselling, AA...

0:23:25 > 0:23:28- I know all that. - I'll call you tomorrow.

0:23:28 > 0:23:32I need to know you've heard all your options. I'll kick start everything. You just need to turn up.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40You didn't have a drink, did you? Before we called you in?

0:23:42 > 0:23:45No. I better go and deal with Kyle West.

0:23:48 > 0:23:52As agreed, we're going to take some more forensic samples off you,

0:23:52 > 0:23:53then you can see your brief.

0:23:53 > 0:23:55If you'd take that off.

0:23:55 > 0:23:57I'm entitled to some privacy.

0:23:58 > 0:24:00It'll be OK.

0:24:00 > 0:24:03I will be just outside the door.

0:24:04 > 0:24:05Missing you already.

0:24:06 > 0:24:08Have I seen you here before?

0:24:10 > 0:24:12No.

0:24:12 > 0:24:16Last time, I was in for GBH. That wasn't you?

0:24:16 > 0:24:18I'm going to take some samples.

0:24:18 > 0:24:22Um...do you know someone called Lewis Jones?

0:24:22 > 0:24:24I had this bloke in here, a couple of weeks ago.

0:24:24 > 0:24:27He was accusing Dr Wheeler of the same thing.

0:24:27 > 0:24:28What a coincidence, eh?

0:24:30 > 0:24:31Nothing to say?

0:24:31 > 0:24:33Good.

0:24:37 > 0:24:38All good?

0:24:38 > 0:24:42- Yes.- Great, that was close.

0:24:42 > 0:24:44Better luck next time.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47Are you going to tell your brief or shall I do it?

0:24:47 > 0:24:48Oh, let it be me, please.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51Heston? What's going on?

0:24:51 > 0:24:53Just give me a minute.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56Any developments?

0:24:56 > 0:24:57Yes, Sarge.

0:24:59 > 0:25:00"Dear Mr Carver.

0:25:00 > 0:25:03"I'm getting in touch regarding Dr David wheeler.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06"Dr Wheeler sought my help with some personal health issues

0:25:06 > 0:25:08"which require immediate treatment.

0:25:08 > 0:25:10"I'll be in touch tomorrow to further discuss the matter,

0:25:10 > 0:25:13"but it's my professional opinion that he is acting responsibly

0:25:13 > 0:25:16"and that it is in his interests, and the interests of your practice,

0:25:16 > 0:25:19"if he takes immediate compassionate leave to begin treatment.

0:25:19 > 0:25:22"Regards. Dr Jimmi Clay."

0:25:32 > 0:25:36Stupid, stupid, stupid!

0:25:40 > 0:25:42How are you?

0:25:42 > 0:25:44Oh, you know, the acoustics are rather fine.

0:25:44 > 0:25:46I can practise singing my favourite arias.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48Can I get you anything?

0:25:48 > 0:25:51Yeah, a big fruit cake with a file baked inside, that would be nice.

0:25:51 > 0:25:53Come on. Stop it. Rob has explained what happened.

0:25:53 > 0:25:54We are going to fight this.

0:25:54 > 0:25:56The duty solicitor's put things on hold.

0:25:56 > 0:25:58They'll look to bail you in the morning.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01I am disgusted that I have to spend a night in the cells.

0:26:01 > 0:26:06And I dread to think what would have happened if I hadn't defended myself.

0:26:06 > 0:26:08You're the victim. Don't forget that.

0:26:08 > 0:26:10I know that. Thank you for saying so.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15Any news from the hospital?

0:26:18 > 0:26:20His name's Curtis Brown. He's just got out of theatre.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23His injuries were worse than they expected.

0:26:25 > 0:26:26What could happen with this?

0:26:26 > 0:26:32Cook says that they are talking about a charge of attempted murder.

0:26:32 > 0:26:33It might not come to that.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35- It could.- Murder?

0:26:35 > 0:26:38- I'm sure it'll be fine. - You don't know that!

0:26:38 > 0:26:41Even if it's fine, it could be jail, my career finished. How could this happen?!

0:26:46 > 0:26:50One, two, three!

0:26:50 > 0:26:52- Do you hear this, Dad? - No, Dane, he can't!

0:26:52 > 0:26:54- You wonder for why! - Because he's dead!

0:26:54 > 0:26:57- Trudi!- We're trying to talk here!

0:26:57 > 0:27:01I was just wondering if you'd had any more thoughts

0:27:01 > 0:27:03about our little soiree?

0:27:03 > 0:27:05- It was an accident! - He's the accident!

0:27:05 > 0:27:07- Shut it, Wayne! - Why don't you make me, eh?
