0:01:05 > 0:01:08Not here.

0:01:08 > 0:01:09Not here. No.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23What the hell do you think you're playing at?!

0:01:23 > 0:01:26- Have you got any toast on the go? - You're supposed to be on the go.

0:01:26 > 0:01:28Has it somehow escaped your attention

0:01:28 > 0:01:30that you've got an important exam this morning?

0:01:30 > 0:01:32Get dressed.

0:01:32 > 0:01:33What're you doing?

0:01:33 > 0:01:36Checking that you've got everything. Someone has to.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39I'm not a kid, you know.

0:01:39 > 0:01:41That's a matter of dispute, young lady.

0:01:41 > 0:01:4325 missed calls?!

0:01:49 > 0:01:52- What?- They have got to be kidding

0:01:54 > 0:01:57Brilliant. Brilliant.

0:01:57 > 0:02:01- What?- A power cut or something. They've changed the venue of my exam to Wolverhampton.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04- Have they changed the time? - No. No, no, that would be too easy.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11Had your breakfast?

0:02:11 > 0:02:14I'm not hungry.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16(Where are you?)

0:02:16 > 0:02:20You need to eat something. We can't have you fainting with starvation in front of the doctor.

0:02:20 > 0:02:24I'll have some toast later. Has there been any post?

0:02:24 > 0:02:25Just a gas bill.

0:02:25 > 0:02:26Nothing else?

0:02:26 > 0:02:29I'll make you something to eat.

0:02:29 > 0:02:31No. You need to open the shop. I'll be fine.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33Go on.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35I'll call in later.

0:02:35 > 0:02:38Have you forgotten something?

0:02:44 > 0:02:47- Call me. Let me know what she says. - Hmm?

0:02:47 > 0:02:49The doctor.

0:02:49 > 0:02:52Of course. Bye.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56No, I can't because I've got clinic. Go on, Ange,

0:02:56 > 0:03:00she's practically your goddaughter...

0:03:00 > 0:03:03Because he's at work.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06I know it's short notice, that's why it's an emergency!

0:03:06 > 0:03:08Have you got any plans for this morning?

0:03:08 > 0:03:11All right! I was only asking.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13No, no, I understand that,

0:03:13 > 0:03:17but I'm saying could you not postpone your MOT?

0:03:17 > 0:03:19I mean, you're only driving around for a couple of hours,

0:03:19 > 0:03:20only a tiny bit illegal.

0:03:22 > 0:03:24Right. Fine.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29- Any luck?- They've all left, they're probably halfway there by now.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31PHONE RINGS

0:03:31 > 0:03:35Daniel, I just could use a favour. Immie needs a lift

0:03:35 > 0:03:41to her exam, she's running late and I've got to be at The Campus in ten.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44'Sorry I'm running late myself. Why don't you ask Zara?

0:03:44 > 0:03:46'She's only shopping today.'

0:03:46 > 0:03:48Zara?!

0:03:55 > 0:03:57PHONE RINGS

0:04:03 > 0:04:04Yes?

0:04:04 > 0:04:06Hi, Zara, how are you? How's Little Joe?

0:04:08 > 0:04:10What do you want?

0:04:10 > 0:04:14Funny you should mention that, I am after a teeny favour.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16Well I say I, but it's not...

0:04:16 > 0:04:18- Karen, I haven't got all day. - Right.

0:04:18 > 0:04:22Immie's due at a media studies exam this morning and she needs a lift.

0:04:22 > 0:04:23I was wondering if you would do it?

0:04:23 > 0:04:26I can't cos I can't get out of work. Rob's on a stake-out.

0:04:26 > 0:04:27Why are you asking me?

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Daniel said you were only shopping today.

0:04:29 > 0:04:31Only shopping?

0:04:31 > 0:04:34Hang on a minute. You've asked everybody else, haven't you?

0:04:34 > 0:04:36'I'm your last resort.'

0:04:36 > 0:04:39No, no, no. It's not like that at all.

0:04:39 > 0:04:41D'you think I'm radioactive? Is that it?

0:04:41 > 0:04:43No, of course not.

0:04:44 > 0:04:45It's...

0:04:45 > 0:04:48Well, it's just that I know how you hate having

0:04:48 > 0:04:50your time encroached upon.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53So, now you're saying I'm selfish. Is that what you're saying?

0:04:53 > 0:04:59- I wouldn't dream of saying that. It's not your fault that everybody thinks you are.- What?

0:04:59 > 0:05:01I rather admire the way you don't go on about being

0:05:01 > 0:05:03a Good Samaritan all the time.

0:05:03 > 0:05:06- What? - Anyway, you must be very busy.

0:05:06 > 0:05:10- I don't won't to keep you. - Hang on. Fine.

0:05:10 > 0:05:11Oh no. I couldn't possibly...

0:05:11 > 0:05:13I'll pick up Immie in half an hour.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17Fab, thanks. Did I mention the exam's in Wolverhampton?

0:05:17 > 0:05:20- What! Karen... - See you later. Bye.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22Karen!

0:05:27 > 0:05:31Good morning. And how are you on this fine summer's day?

0:05:31 > 0:05:33You look like the cat that got the cream.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36Cream. Charisma. Cute. I think I've got it all.

0:05:36 > 0:05:40Oh... Is this annoying mood to do with a certain Michaela?

0:05:40 > 0:05:44- It might be. - Go on then. Dish the dirt.

0:05:44 > 0:05:48- Kevin, have you got a moment? - Sure. Why?

0:05:48 > 0:05:51- Administration fees. I'd like your input.- Me?

0:05:51 > 0:05:52Anyone else in the room called Kevin?

0:06:02 > 0:06:04What did Howard want with Kevin?

0:06:04 > 0:06:07Boring admin stuff.

0:06:08 > 0:06:09Are you all right?

0:06:11 > 0:06:12Yeah, I'm fine.

0:06:15 > 0:06:19So, what's the verdict?

0:06:19 > 0:06:22- Not too favourable on the old MS front?- I'm sorry.

0:06:22 > 0:06:26It does look as though this period of remission has come to an end.

0:06:28 > 0:06:31To be honest, I'm not surprised.

0:06:31 > 0:06:33- Things haven't been going my way lately.- Why?

0:06:37 > 0:06:39Trying to find my father.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41He left my mum when I was a baby.

0:06:41 > 0:06:45I suppose he felt he was too young to cope with a family.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48Who knows?

0:06:48 > 0:06:51Has he ever been in touch since?

0:06:51 > 0:06:53That's where the mystery comes in.

0:06:53 > 0:06:54Oh, yes?

0:06:58 > 0:07:04These have been arriving over the past two months.

0:07:07 > 0:07:08I think he might have sent them.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13- Gosh. How can you tell what's written?- It's difficult.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16The style's certainly cryptic.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19How do you know they're from your father?

0:07:19 > 0:07:22You can just make out the signature. "Geoff."

0:07:22 > 0:07:23That's his middle name.

0:07:23 > 0:07:27Well, good luck with your search.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30I don't really think I can be bothered any more.

0:07:30 > 0:07:34I've been at it these past months. Nothing.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37And now the letters have stopped coming.

0:07:39 > 0:07:43Well, you never know. I must be going.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45I'll have a word with your consultant.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47Try not to worry.

0:07:47 > 0:07:48I'll let myself out.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56You're late!

0:07:56 > 0:07:58Tough. What on earth is that?

0:07:58 > 0:08:02- Mum, I probably won't even need it. - Best be prepared.

0:08:02 > 0:08:05Mind the baby.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07- Mind the baby!- Sorry, Joe.

0:08:07 > 0:08:12What else have you got there? Binoculars? A folding chair?

0:08:12 > 0:08:15- Ironing board?- Oh, you're so funny.

0:08:15 > 0:08:16You're welcome. "And thank you, Zara,

0:08:16 > 0:08:20- "for going out of your way with the kind offer of a lift."- Thanks.

0:08:20 > 0:08:21Here.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24Someone tell your mother we live in an age of sat-nav.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26Mum, will you stop fussing. I'll see you later. All right?

0:08:26 > 0:08:30Good luck, love. You will drive carefully, won't you?

0:08:30 > 0:08:32No.

0:08:32 > 0:08:35- So? Are you all set? - Not really.- Why's that?

0:08:35 > 0:08:39Because I'm pretty sure I'm going to mess this up big time.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41Don't think I've done the right preparation.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44You might as well be taking me to a firing squad.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46If it's such a waste of my time, why am I bothering.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48Your choice. HORN BLARES

0:09:00 > 0:09:02Happy here...

0:09:07 > 0:09:09Happy...

0:09:09 > 0:09:12Happy...

0:09:12 > 0:09:15HE SOBS

0:09:16 > 0:09:20- Thank you.- Take care, love.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51Who are you? What d'you want?

0:09:51 > 0:09:54I'm sorry. I don't mean to frighten you.

0:09:55 > 0:09:56What's your name?

0:09:57 > 0:10:00Happy here.

0:10:00 > 0:10:07- Here happy?- Happy here? What does that mean?

0:10:09 > 0:10:12Dad, is that you?

0:10:14 > 0:10:16What happened to you?

0:10:23 > 0:10:25Who has a sat-nav that talks Chinese?

0:10:25 > 0:10:27It's the first time it's ever done that.

0:10:27 > 0:10:28Great idea of yours.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30Taking a short cut you've never used before.

0:10:30 > 0:10:34OK, Miss Gratitude, I was trying to make up for lost time.

0:10:34 > 0:10:37Lost is the word. I'm going to be so late for this exam.

0:10:37 > 0:10:38If we ever get there.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41- I didn't think you were that bothered.- I never said that.

0:10:41 > 0:10:43- Doesn't matter anyway. It's only media studies.- What?

0:10:43 > 0:10:47If you want to work in a theme park it might stand you in good stead.

0:10:47 > 0:10:51I only hope when Joe's your age his educational choices show

0:10:51 > 0:10:53a little more gravitas.

0:10:53 > 0:10:57- For your information, media studies is not a slacker's subject any more. - Oh please.

0:10:57 > 0:11:02Internet. iPads. iPods. Androids. Apps. Tip of the iceberg.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05Communications are getting more pervasive every day,

0:11:05 > 0:11:08- can you imagine what it'll be like when Joe's growing up? - I'd rather not.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10Yeah, well, you should cos his generation are going to be

0:11:10 > 0:11:12targeted like never before.

0:11:12 > 0:11:15One retina scan is going to give corporations enough

0:11:15 > 0:11:18biological history to catalogue his personal preferences and tastes.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20He'll have his own chip implant,

0:11:20 > 0:11:23capable of uploading a constant stream of advertising.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25That's pure science fiction.

0:11:25 > 0:11:29These technologies are being developed as we speak. They'll soon be ready to roll.

0:11:29 > 0:11:31It's all about information and dissemination.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35Hey, Joe, welcome to your brave new world.

0:11:42 > 0:11:44Geoff?

0:11:49 > 0:11:52Is that your name?

0:11:52 > 0:11:54Geoff.

0:11:58 > 0:11:59What's this?

0:11:59 > 0:12:03It's all right. I won't try to steal it.

0:12:08 > 0:12:12Geoff. Did you write this?

0:12:16 > 0:12:18Different.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22Different? What's different?

0:12:22 > 0:12:29Flowers. Used to be yellow.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32- The wall?- Yellow flowers.

0:12:32 > 0:12:36That's right. We used to have tulip patterned wallpaper.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38But that was years ago.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43I'm Paula.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47You're my dad, aren't you?

0:12:50 > 0:12:53Everywhere you go, you can't escape media messages.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56Think about all the posters and logos we've seen on our way here.

0:12:56 > 0:12:58- Imogen.- And that's just the obvious stuff.

0:12:58 > 0:13:02- Imogen!- Joe's generation are going to face a barrage of subliminal messages...

0:13:02 > 0:13:04Imogen, you've got about 60 seconds to get to your exam.

0:13:04 > 0:13:05Oh, right.

0:13:08 > 0:13:09PHONE BEEPS

0:13:09 > 0:13:11Really not a good time, Mum.

0:13:11 > 0:13:15Yes, we're here. Mum says thank you. Yeah, of course I'll try my best.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18Listen, I've really got to go. Yes, I know how to relax!

0:13:18 > 0:13:20Will you just stop...?

0:13:23 > 0:13:25How am I going to get home?

0:13:25 > 0:13:27Call me. I'll pick you up.

0:13:27 > 0:13:28Thanks. That's really kind.

0:13:28 > 0:13:31There must be some decent shops round here.

0:13:31 > 0:13:32Tick tock. Tick tock.

0:13:39 > 0:13:43And there he was, stood in the garden, barefoot,

0:13:43 > 0:13:45wearing nothing but a dressing gown.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47You say you've never seen this man before in your life?

0:13:47 > 0:13:50- That's right. - How do you know it's your father?

0:13:50 > 0:13:55Well, he's the same age as Dad would be, and he's got the same name.

0:13:55 > 0:13:57- You know his name? - Not the full name.

0:13:57 > 0:14:00He seems to get very easily confused.

0:14:00 > 0:14:02And his feet are badly cut.

0:14:02 > 0:14:04That's why I thought you could take a look at him.

0:14:04 > 0:14:08From what you're saying, it sounds like it's a matter for the police or the social services.

0:14:08 > 0:14:11- He's not dangerous! - I'm sure he's not.

0:14:11 > 0:14:15But it's probably best if he is seen by someone who can properly assess and identify him.

0:14:15 > 0:14:20And what about his feet? I don't know what do to.

0:14:20 > 0:14:22I can't leave the house.

0:14:27 > 0:14:29Hi.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38I thought these might help to restore Geoff

0:14:38 > 0:14:40to some semblance of dignity.

0:14:40 > 0:14:43He looks about the same size as Bill.

0:14:43 > 0:14:45Good. There. Is that better?

0:14:45 > 0:14:48Thank you.

0:14:48 > 0:14:52- Who's that for? Is it for Paula? - He won't seem to part with it.

0:14:53 > 0:14:57Would you like another drink, Dad?

0:14:57 > 0:15:00I'm not sure that's a good idea to call him.

0:15:00 > 0:15:04Why not? After all, who else could he be?

0:15:04 > 0:15:07There's got to be some way of proving it.

0:15:07 > 0:15:10The only sure way would be a DNA test.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13Yes. OK. Go ahead. Do it.

0:15:13 > 0:15:17We need to establish his identity first.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20But we know that already.

0:15:20 > 0:15:22I don't think it's entirely accidental,

0:15:22 > 0:15:24Geoff turning up like this.

0:15:24 > 0:15:27From what he's been saying, it's obvious he's familiar with the house.

0:15:27 > 0:15:31You've been here before, haven't you?

0:15:31 > 0:15:33- Happy here.- You see?

0:15:33 > 0:15:36I'm sorry, Paula. I don't mean to sound dismissive,

0:15:36 > 0:15:39but that's hardly conclusive proof that Geoff is your father.

0:15:39 > 0:15:42I can't carry out a DNA test on a complete stranger.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44It would be unethical.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47I know I acted unethically.

0:15:47 > 0:15:51She's my aunt. I should have backed away.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53But when you can see that someone's suffering...

0:15:53 > 0:15:57Let me get this straight. You say you lied about her medical history?

0:15:58 > 0:16:02I know, I should have stopped to think but...

0:16:04 > 0:16:06Bull in a china shop.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10Kev, I'm really sorry I've let you down.

0:16:10 > 0:16:12OK, if I could go back in time...

0:16:21 > 0:16:25The partners got it right, you know. Promoting you, not me.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30When it came down to it, I didn't show any judgment.

0:16:30 > 0:16:33You wouldn't have done that.

0:16:33 > 0:16:38Are you done? You've done this on purpose, haven't you?

0:16:38 > 0:16:40Sabotaging the drugs trial. Trying to wreck my career.

0:16:40 > 0:16:44- That's not...- From day one, all it's ever been about is the competition.

0:16:45 > 0:16:48Pretending to be my friend but behind my back

0:16:48 > 0:16:52- you've been trying to ruin my prospects.- No. Absolutely not. That's not what...

0:16:52 > 0:16:56This isn't about you, it's about me.

0:16:56 > 0:17:00The only other person I was thinking about on that trial was my aunt.

0:17:00 > 0:17:03Oh, yeah, that's right. You don't give a stuff!

0:17:03 > 0:17:05If Kevin has a problem, just ignore him.

0:17:05 > 0:17:10Let him sort it out for himself like he's always done.

0:17:10 > 0:17:14- Kev...- No, you can't just hug this out and make it all right.

0:17:16 > 0:17:21- You've cocked this up for me, you knew it was important.- Listen...

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Get out. Out!

0:17:39 > 0:17:41So, once he'd got his feet under the table,

0:17:41 > 0:17:45how long before he started dropping hints that he was your father?

0:17:45 > 0:17:49It wasn't like that. Why are you being so sceptical?

0:17:49 > 0:17:52Because I'm concerned you're being taken for a ride.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55First he writes letters to get you hooked. Then he turns up to reel you in.

0:17:55 > 0:17:59It's not just the letters. He knows the house.

0:17:59 > 0:18:03He's described the pattern of our bedroom curtains. He's not been upstairs.

0:18:03 > 0:18:05So, how would he know something like that?

0:18:05 > 0:18:08Because you've posted pictures of the house on that damn website.

0:18:08 > 0:18:12I doubt if Geoff's looked at the internet in a long while.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14Course, because he's so frail, so confused.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16This is what conmen do, Paula.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18They create a credible image.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21I seriously doubt he's a conman.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24I think he might be suffering from dementia.

0:18:24 > 0:18:27You see? He's come back to the one place he remembers most.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29That proves he's my dad.

0:18:29 > 0:18:33- I still think it's too soon to get your hopes up.- Precisely.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35You see what effect he's having on her?

0:18:35 > 0:18:38Sooner or later, there'll be a demand for money. For your own sake,

0:18:38 > 0:18:41I think it's best if you ask him to leave.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44- Now who's being ridiculous?! - Trust me.

0:18:44 > 0:18:49- That man is not your father. - You don't know that!

0:18:49 > 0:18:51Why can't you just be happy for me?!

0:18:51 > 0:18:53Excuse me, please.

0:18:55 > 0:19:00Ever considered the possibility that Paula might be right - Geoff might be her father?

0:19:00 > 0:19:02- That's just not possible.- Why?

0:19:03 > 0:19:07Because...her father died three months ago.

0:19:08 > 0:19:12Why didn't I listen to you in the first place?

0:19:12 > 0:19:13Do you really want an answer to that?

0:19:13 > 0:19:17What's going to happen to Patti? And what about the other lupus patients?

0:19:17 > 0:19:19- Freya...- What will happen to their treatment?

0:19:19 > 0:19:21This is such a train wreck.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23Stop beating yourself up!

0:19:23 > 0:19:27I can't help it. I've been completely and utterly stupid.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29You'll get no argument there.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32Thank you(!)

0:19:32 > 0:19:34It's not like you were acting for personal gain.

0:19:34 > 0:19:37You did what you did out of love.

0:19:37 > 0:19:40I'm not really sure that'll wash in my defence.

0:19:40 > 0:19:44Don't be so pessimistic. There might be a way of dealing with this.

0:19:44 > 0:19:48- How?- One thing, it'll probably be in your favour that you've come forward

0:19:48 > 0:19:50and admitted what you've done.

0:19:50 > 0:19:54Maybe. Maybe not if the drug trial gets suspended.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56It could be restarted.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58Maybe they could take Patti out

0:19:58 > 0:20:01and put one of Kevin's patients in her place?

0:20:01 > 0:20:03It's not as simple as that, Mand.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06Then I'm out of ideas.

0:20:07 > 0:20:11I don't believe you. It's not true.

0:20:11 > 0:20:13I don't think Bill would lie about a thing like this.

0:20:13 > 0:20:16I made enquiries. Your father died in a London hospital.

0:20:16 > 0:20:19Pancreatic cancer.

0:20:19 > 0:20:22He's buried in Wandsworth Cemetery.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26- Why didn't you tell me? - Because you always believed

0:20:26 > 0:20:29that he might come back into your life one day.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31I couldn't kill that dream.

0:20:31 > 0:20:35So, all this time, you've been watching me making a fool of myself?

0:20:35 > 0:20:39- Searching for a dead man! - That's not what Bill was saying.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41Don't you defend him. You had no right.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43The time wasn't right. You were ill.

0:20:43 > 0:20:46I was looking after your welfare.

0:20:46 > 0:20:51- I know, it is...you.- What? - Get away from me.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59What is this?

0:21:00 > 0:21:02What's going on?

0:21:03 > 0:21:05- KNOCK AT DOOR - Come in!

0:21:07 > 0:21:09Sorry, you're busy. I can come back later.

0:21:09 > 0:21:12No, no, no. I've got a moment.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23Well, any time before Christmas would be useful.

0:21:23 > 0:21:24Right.

0:21:26 > 0:21:30What's on your mind? Come on.

0:21:30 > 0:21:31Spit it out.

0:21:33 > 0:21:36It's all right, Geoff, sit down.

0:21:36 > 0:21:41For Geoff's sake, you should tell us if you know something about him.

0:21:41 > 0:21:44What's his connection to you?

0:21:44 > 0:21:46His name's Geoff Hodson.

0:21:46 > 0:21:47How do you know that?

0:21:49 > 0:21:50Bill!

0:21:52 > 0:21:54What does this mean?

0:22:03 > 0:22:04Bill!

0:22:08 > 0:22:10The way he's looking at you.

0:22:10 > 0:22:13What do you mean to him?

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Oh, tell me!

0:22:21 > 0:22:23He was my lover.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34How did it go?

0:22:36 > 0:22:39That bad, eh?

0:22:39 > 0:22:41I nailed it.

0:22:41 > 0:22:43Congratulations!

0:22:43 > 0:22:45Don't get me wrong. It wasn't easy. But I was all fired up

0:22:45 > 0:22:48- and I reckon that was down to you. - Really?

0:22:48 > 0:22:53Yeah, you getting ratty made me get my arguments straight in my head.

0:22:53 > 0:22:55Glad to have been of service.

0:22:55 > 0:22:56Seriously, I owe you one.

0:22:56 > 0:22:59In that case, this calls for a celebration.

0:22:59 > 0:23:01Let's have some lunch. But on one condition.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03What's that?

0:23:03 > 0:23:05Seeing as I'm "only shopping" today,

0:23:05 > 0:23:07you can look after Joe for a couple of hours.

0:23:07 > 0:23:10The least I deserve out of this is a pair of shoes.

0:23:10 > 0:23:14- OK.- And spare him your thoughts on his consumerist future.

0:23:14 > 0:23:17- Fine.- Right, lunch!

0:23:17 > 0:23:19- ENGINE STARTS - Is that it?

0:23:19 > 0:23:21Isn't that enough?

0:23:21 > 0:23:25So, when Freya's activities become public, what happens next?

0:23:25 > 0:23:27Well, I can't say for certain

0:23:27 > 0:23:30but I imagine that's it for the drugs trial.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33It could be discredited. For the initial phase at least.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36- I see.- And...

0:23:36 > 0:23:38Oh, go on.

0:23:38 > 0:23:43If it does move on, it's more than likely the hospital would choose to go with another practice.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46- Any more cheerful outcomes?- Sorry. - I can't believe this.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48Do you have any idea what damage this could do

0:23:48 > 0:23:50to the reputation of the practice?

0:23:50 > 0:23:53What was she thinking? Has she not heard of following basic protocols?

0:23:53 > 0:23:56To be fair, Freya's normally quite conscientious.

0:23:56 > 0:23:59I suppose she just saw an opportunity for helping her aunt out and she...

0:23:59 > 0:24:01That's not good enough. Would you treat a relative

0:24:01 > 0:24:05knowing it was unethical and distort the medical history?

0:24:05 > 0:24:07And, on top of that, be so rampantly stupid

0:24:07 > 0:24:09to think you could get away with it? Of course not.

0:24:09 > 0:24:12I'll tell you this. If she in any way represents a new breed of doctor

0:24:12 > 0:24:15they're churning out of medical school then heaven help the NHS.

0:24:15 > 0:24:17- Don't you think...?- What?

0:24:19 > 0:24:21She's become a liability.

0:24:27 > 0:24:29When was this taken?

0:24:29 > 0:24:33You don't exactly look like a young man here.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35Ten years ago.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39Where did this relationship take place?

0:24:39 > 0:24:42Happy...here.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45Thank you. We'll be over shortly.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48It wasn't an affair in any meaningful sense.

0:24:48 > 0:24:52I had needs. It was just physical.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55And that makes it better?

0:24:55 > 0:24:58HE wanted to take it further. That's when I ended it.

0:24:58 > 0:25:01It was YOU that I wanted. Not him. I could never love a man.

0:25:01 > 0:25:03Can you discuss this later?

0:25:03 > 0:25:05Geoff, I'm going to take you to the police, is that OK?

0:25:05 > 0:25:08Why did you have to write those idiotic letters?

0:25:08 > 0:25:10Why did you have to come back and spoil everything?

0:25:10 > 0:25:13That's enough. Can't you see he's upset?

0:25:13 > 0:25:17Don't you see? As far as I'm concerned, he's just a mistake from the past.

0:25:17 > 0:25:20I really do love you.

0:25:20 > 0:25:22I believe you.

0:25:22 > 0:25:25But you're not the man I thought I married.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30- Please just go.- Paula, just try...

0:25:30 > 0:25:32I can't look at you right now.

0:25:43 > 0:25:44Is he going to be all right?

0:25:44 > 0:25:47I think so. The police should be able to find out where he lives.

0:25:47 > 0:25:51And you'll let me know if he gets home safe and sound?

0:25:51 > 0:25:55Of course. How about you? Will you be all right?

0:25:57 > 0:26:00Happy...here.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06- No, you can't sack her.- Why not?

0:26:06 > 0:26:09She's still a registrar, she's not actually employed by the practice.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12- Well, she can't stay here. - So, what are you proposing?

0:26:12 > 0:26:15She can continue her training at another practice.

0:26:15 > 0:26:18Once I've informed the partners of her misconduct,

0:26:18 > 0:26:21I'm sure they'll agree with me. I don't want her here.

0:26:21 > 0:26:24Unless, of course, you have some objection?

0:26:33 > 0:26:35Today's the day that the... hits the fan.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38I'm not going to lie to you, Freya. This is bad for the practice

0:26:38 > 0:26:39and YOU personally.

0:26:39 > 0:26:42If you know something about my patient, you need to tell me.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47Dr Cassidy!

0:26:47 > 0:26:49This is your career that's on the line -

0:26:49 > 0:26:51everything you've ever worked for.

0:26:51 > 0:26:54I warned the wrong people.

0:26:54 > 0:26:56Clear!
