0:00:32 > 0:00:36PHONE ALARM BEEPS Mm!
0:00:36 > 0:00:38Oh, shut up!
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Mm...
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Urgh...
0:00:58 > 0:01:00SHE SIGHS
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Shower. Suit. Slap.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10PHONE RINGS Oh, give me a break!
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Hi, Mum.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Thanks, I'll need it.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Mm...
0:01:24 > 0:01:26I don't feel very bona fide at the moment.
0:01:29 > 0:01:30Nothing.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35Mum, I don't need a lecture.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Yeah, look, you're making me late.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40I've got to go. Bye.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49As long as Stacey got her card all right.
0:01:49 > 0:01:54Anyway, I'm giving her money, but didn't want to put it in the card.
0:01:54 > 0:01:59So...just to say, I could bring it with me later...?
0:01:59 > 0:02:01PHONE BEEPS
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Oh, run out.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Zara?
0:02:13 > 0:02:17(There you go. Oh, yes.)
0:02:19 > 0:02:22- Everything OK?- He loves it.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24- Sorry? - Mashed banana and porridge.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Before you know it he'll be on steak tartare.
0:02:27 > 0:02:28No, I meant...
0:02:28 > 0:02:32You look terrible. Daddy needs a shower.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34He does not smell gorgeous like you.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38Smelling gorgeous won't last.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Yes, but mummy will be at work by the time that happens.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43- I'll make you breakfast.- Thanks.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45CROCKERY CLATTERS
0:02:45 > 0:02:47- JOE WAILS - It's all right, darling.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50It's all right. On second thoughts, I'll skip breakfast.
0:02:50 > 0:02:54- You can't do that. It's not good for you. - I don't need a mother, Daniel.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Are you going to be a lovely boy for Daddy?
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Bye-bye, darling.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21That hill will be the death of me.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Over the hill, eh?
0:03:23 > 0:03:25You really shouldn't attempt jokes.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28What are you doing here anyway?
0:03:28 > 0:03:31- Repeat prescription for my blood pressure.- Oh, is that all?
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Noticed anything different?
0:03:37 > 0:03:41- If you've had Botox, you've been robbed.- Not me. Him.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Harry Potter.
0:03:43 > 0:03:44Do you think he's even qualified?
0:03:44 > 0:03:47They wouldn't let him work here if he wasn't.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50I don't know what the Health Service is coming to.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53Schoolboy chemists. Incompetent doctors.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55What time's your appointment with the new one?
0:03:55 > 0:03:57Twenty past nine.
0:03:58 > 0:03:59I'm in at ten past.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02They told me I had the first available appointment!
0:04:02 > 0:04:03After mine.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Of course, Karen's particularly fond of me.
0:04:07 > 0:04:12I said to her once, it's a tonic seeing your happy, smiling face
0:04:12 > 0:04:15and she said, "Bella, it's seeing you that does it.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17"If only all patients were so lovely."
0:04:17 > 0:04:20You've got a vivid imagination.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22Um...Mrs Hewlett?
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Yes. Thank you.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30Getting there first won't do you any good!
0:04:32 > 0:04:36I can't believe they put Rob through to the second round of Supachef!
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Shame you got disqualified, though.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40Oh, no - it was worth it to see the look on Mrs Tembe's face.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46- Oh, hi, I'm Karen.- Jas. - Nurse Marquez and Doctor Clay.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49- Yeah, we already met.- Yeah.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53Actually, I'm due at the police station so you can use my room today if you want.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55- That's brilliant. Thanks. - Catch you tomorrow.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58- Fancy a coffee? - No, she does not have the time.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Mrs Hollins, would you mind looking after the reception desk?
0:05:01 > 0:05:04Hang on, I'm not wearing this for a bet.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08Dr Carter has asked me to conduct a tour of the surgery.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10It will not take long. Dr Khella?
0:05:11 > 0:05:14Urgh, snooty, or what?
0:05:14 > 0:05:18Throwing her orders around! Since when was she senior to me?
0:05:18 > 0:05:20I wasn't talking about Mrs Tembe.
0:05:20 > 0:05:24- PHONE RINGS - I'm going to throttle that woman!
0:05:27 > 0:05:30- Hi, Karen! - Morning, Mill Health Centre.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Oh, hello, Mr Banerjee. What can I do for you?
0:05:32 > 0:05:36Stop waving like an imbecile and come and sit down.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40Dr Carter has an appointment this afternoon. Yeah, this afternoon...
0:05:40 > 0:05:42She'd have said hello if she hadn't been so busy.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45People like that see hundreds of patients.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48She barely knows who you are.
0:05:48 > 0:05:49Hark at her.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52There was a time when women...
0:05:55 > 0:05:58..dressed like that were only found walking the streets.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Elegance is a thing of the past.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Absolutely. Mind you, grooming was always second nature to me.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07And me.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09But I was a professional model.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11There's more to being an air stewardess
0:06:11 > 0:06:13than sitting around posing.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16We were rushed off our feet, but always had to look fresh as a daisy.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Your daisy days are well and truly over.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Speak for yourself.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24I've never seen her here before.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26I'm glad I don't have to do that any more.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30Child-minding was such a huge commitment.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34Two days a week I could have spent with darling Stuart.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37Only two days? I had Stacey for five!
0:06:37 > 0:06:44You're forgetting my grandchildren were twins. Twice the commitment.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46So? You had the rest of the week off.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48My life wasn't my own.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50At least I can please myself now.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54Indeed. We both can.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Morning, ladies! Early birds, eh?
0:06:58 > 0:07:01Dr Tyler always has a pleasant word.
0:07:01 > 0:07:02I find him rather belligerent.
0:07:02 > 0:07:06He gave me very short shrift the other week.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Probably because you were wasting his time.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Pot.
0:07:10 > 0:07:11Kettle.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13Black.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17I just think there are times when you need to remove the barrier.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19The desk?
0:07:19 > 0:07:23I meant more the sense of hierarchy. Mrs Tembe doesn't approve.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- Call me old-fashioned. - A-ha! Fresh meat!
0:07:26 > 0:07:28- Dr Tyler!- Kevin!
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- Eeyore!- You know each other?
0:07:31 > 0:07:34Yeah. From medical school. What are you doing here?
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- It's great to see you, too!- Is it? You need to go back to your desk.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39I beg your pardon?
0:07:39 > 0:07:41Before Karen blows a gasket. It's crazy out there.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Well, thank you, Dr Tyler.
0:07:43 > 0:07:48The tour has ended anyway. Dr Khella.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50And you have a couple of regulars waiting.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52Old dears with nothing better to do.
0:07:52 > 0:07:53Kevin.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Bella and Christine.
0:07:55 > 0:07:56Ah.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00"Ah," yes. See? We've all been there. Enjoy.
0:08:00 > 0:08:01Hmm.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14- JOE CRIES - No...
0:08:21 > 0:08:23All right.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26All right, I'm coming!
0:08:30 > 0:08:33I imagine they'll have a marquee in the garden.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Must be a big garden!
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Oh, yes. Colin's done very well for himself.
0:08:38 > 0:08:42He's inherited my get-up-and-go. No expense spared for Stacey!
0:08:42 > 0:08:44- Lucky girl!- I've got a picture.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49Of course, that's when she was my little girl.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51They grow up too soon.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Lovely.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56Anyway, you'll be tripping the light fantastic later on.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59- Pardon?- At the party.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- Your blood pressure is spot-on. - Not even slightly high?
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Why do you think it could be high?
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Now and again I have a bit of a whizzy head.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10You suffer from dizziness?
0:09:10 > 0:09:11No, whizzy's not the same as dizzy.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16- You know when someone says their head's spinning?- Yes?
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Well, it's not like that.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22I can't really describe it.
0:09:22 > 0:09:28OK...so does this "whizziness" occur at any particular time of the day?
0:09:28 > 0:09:30No.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32Or when you've got up too quickly?
0:09:32 > 0:09:33No.
0:09:34 > 0:09:38I wouldn't worry, Bella. You're as healthy as a woman half your age.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41I see. I'm sorry to have wasted your time, Doctor.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44You haven't.
0:09:45 > 0:09:49Hey, Kevin. Do you still see anybody from Uni?
0:09:49 > 0:09:53- No-one you'd know. - What about "Tin-Tin" McLaren?
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Hardly. He's in a Buddhist retreat in Tibet.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57- Jacked it all in.- No way!
0:09:57 > 0:10:01I reckon it's something to do with him losing his hair.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04Excuse me, am I interrupting a conversation of great import?
0:10:04 > 0:10:07- You must be Mrs Tickell.- Tick-ell.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11- Sorry. Please, go in. Take a seat. - Thank you.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15It really is great to see you, Kevin.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17So you keep saying.
0:10:20 > 0:10:21How can I help?
0:10:21 > 0:10:25I have a hitherto undiagnosed heart condition.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27You are my last vain hope.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Can you describe your symptoms?
0:10:30 > 0:10:35Perfectly. Just lately, I've been getting a fluttering sensation.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37- Whereabouts?- In my throat.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41It feels as if my heart has flown there and got trapped.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43I've looked it up on the internet...
0:10:43 > 0:10:46Can I just stop you there, Mrs Tickell?
0:10:46 > 0:10:50You need to be very cautious about self-diagnosing on the internet.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53If your doctors were any good, I wouldn't need to.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Do you experience any pain or breathlessness?
0:10:56 > 0:11:00A little pain. Not that I'm one to complain,
0:11:00 > 0:11:04but the breathlessness seems to be becoming more frequent.
0:11:04 > 0:11:08I had the devil's own job getting up Columbine Hill this morning.
0:11:08 > 0:11:09May I feel your pulse?
0:11:15 > 0:11:19OK. If you can slip your coat off I'll have a listen to your heart.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Thank you, I know the drill.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23OK, I'll see you later. Bye.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28- Hello, Bella.- You could have said that before in front of her.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31Well, I didn't see you there. Anyway, how are you?
0:11:31 > 0:11:35The doctor says I've got the body of a woman half my age.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38- I'm an evolutionary miracle. - Ooh, did she say that?
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Well, that's what she meant.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43So does this mean we're not going to see so much of you nowadays?
0:11:43 > 0:11:44I've still got my whizzy head.
0:11:44 > 0:11:45Karen?
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Sorry.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50I'd like you to run an ECG on Christine Tickell.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Thing is, it's usually clear.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Could you just do it, please?
0:11:57 > 0:12:02- Where's Christine?- I'm afraid I can't discuss that with you. She'll be through soon, don't worry.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07Hi.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10Whatever it is, you're going to have to be quick.
0:12:10 > 0:12:11I was hoping we could talk.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14Daniel, I'm expecting a patient any second.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16- JOE CRIES - What's the matter? What's wrong with Joe?
0:12:16 > 0:12:21- Nothing. Zara, look, please... - Put the phone by his ear.
0:12:21 > 0:12:25Hello, darling, it's Mummy here. Are you having a lovely day?
0:12:25 > 0:12:29- He says yes, thank you.- He sounds bored and that's because you are.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32I can hear it in your voice. Why don't you read to him or something?
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Look, I've got to go. Give me a call back at lunch time.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37Yeah, bye.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43OK. You know what? I think it's...
0:12:43 > 0:12:45I think it's time for a lie down.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50- In you go. Now, be a good boy for Daddy, OK? - JOE CRIES
0:12:50 > 0:12:52No, no crying. No crying. No...
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Argh!
0:12:57 > 0:12:59OK, well, here we go again.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13- Thanks, Karen.- Pleasure.
0:13:19 > 0:13:21So what's the verdict?
0:13:21 > 0:13:24Go home, put your feet up, have a cup of tea?
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Actually, your heartbeat is faster than normal.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29I knew it!
0:13:29 > 0:13:32Um...yes.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35In my opinion it's a condition called supraventricular tachycardia,
0:13:35 > 0:13:38- known as SVT.- Let me write that down.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43PRINTER BUZZES
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Supra...ventricular...
0:13:47 > 0:13:49I'll refer you to a cardiologist...
0:13:49 > 0:13:53- A specialist? - ..and prescribe some beta-blockers.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56A referral and a prescription?
0:13:56 > 0:14:00- I feel as if all my Christmases have come at once.- Really?
0:14:00 > 0:14:02A diagnosis! At last!
0:14:02 > 0:14:04Don't be too hard on the other doctors.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07Heart rate irregularities can be unpredictable
0:14:07 > 0:14:09and not always picked up by an ECG.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12Modest as well as brilliant.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Thank you so much, Doctor!
0:14:26 > 0:14:28You've got a prescription!
0:14:28 > 0:14:31And a referral! The Head Cardiologist at St Phil's.
0:14:31 > 0:14:32Let me see that.
0:14:32 > 0:14:36Ah, Dr Carter, are you responsible for recruiting Dr Khella?
0:14:36 > 0:14:41- Is there a problem? - Quite the reverse. She's a talent with a capital T.
0:14:41 > 0:14:42Well, she was my first choice.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45Actually, she was mine.
0:14:45 > 0:14:49What would you know? You're just a pen-pusher who ticks boxes.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51Come along, we have an appointment with Harry Potter.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53(Pen-pusher.)
0:14:56 > 0:14:58- KNOCK AT DOOR - Yeah?
0:15:00 > 0:15:02Christine Tickell's ECG result.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06- You're winding me up.- No.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13What do you think?
0:15:13 > 0:15:18Given her age and other factors, probable SVT. Why are you asking me?
0:15:18 > 0:15:22- You're a more experienced colleague. - Pull the other one.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25You didn't need my help at med school, you're hardly going to be asking now.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29- You should be flattered.- Why would you want to flatter me?- I don't. Your head's big enough as it is.
0:15:29 > 0:15:33- That's more like it! - Thanks for your help, Dr Tyler.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37PHONE BEEPS
0:15:40 > 0:15:42It's from Stacey.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44Thanks for card, Nana.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48- And a kiss!- Duty done.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50I'm sorry, we're out of stock.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Out of stock?
0:15:52 > 0:15:56We're talking about life-saving tablets, not frozen peas.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58I assume you know the difference?
0:15:59 > 0:16:01I'll order them in by special delivery.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03This wouldn't have happened if Kenneth were here.
0:16:03 > 0:16:05If you could come back at four...?
0:16:05 > 0:16:08Four? I might have dropped dead by then.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10In my opinion, that's unlikely.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13You haven't lived long enough to have an opinion.
0:16:13 > 0:16:14You could try another chemist?
0:16:14 > 0:16:17You're not getting off that lightly.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19I'll be back at four and they better be ready.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25Come on. Let's go back to mine and have a drink.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28No, I've got to go and get ready for the party.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30In case I get a phone call.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32Pigs might fly.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Sorry if it's taken so long to get round to you.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38I've had a busy morning myself.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40Well, you seem to have made a very positive impression
0:16:40 > 0:16:43on one of our more challenging regulars.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46Elderly patients get anxious about their health, often with good reason.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50It's just a question of checking that everything is OK and offering reassurance, where needed.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52I think you're going to be an asset to the team.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55Good. I'm glad.
0:16:55 > 0:16:58So, to the form-filling. Essential, I'm afraid.
0:16:58 > 0:17:04- I've no problem with paperwork. It keeps everything in good order. - I'm glad you see it that way.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06Not many of your colleagues would agree.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08Serious? Well...
0:17:08 > 0:17:11the doctor's being rather coy.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15This coming weekend?
0:17:17 > 0:17:18Are you sure you can spare the time, darling?
0:17:20 > 0:17:24- My daughter's coming up from Salisbury!- Nice for you.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27Oh, that would be wonderful!
0:17:27 > 0:17:31I'll see you then, darling, and don't worry.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33There's life in the old girl yet.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40I've tried to play it down, but she's beside herself.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44It makes such a difference having a caring family.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47My Colin cares about me.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49He's a funny way of showing it.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52It's not him, it's her, my daughter-in-law.
0:17:52 > 0:17:56If he were any sort of man, he'd stick up for you.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Don't you dare bad-mouth my son!
0:17:58 > 0:18:01It's no use shouting at me. I'm not the one neglecting you.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04Right, I've had enough.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07Oh, don't let's fall out. Have another sherry.
0:18:07 > 0:18:12Stuff your sherry. I've got a life, even if you haven't!
0:18:16 > 0:18:18Hey, Kevin.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21We've really got to stop meeting like this.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25- Where's your lunch? - Oh, I had a big breakfast.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28So, where are you living?
0:18:29 > 0:18:30Letherbridge.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32No, I meant in a flat or in a house.
0:18:32 > 0:18:33House.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36Great. So, do you have the place to yourself
0:18:36 > 0:18:41or are you sharing with anyone? Girlfriend, maybe?
0:18:41 > 0:18:43Let's cut to the chase - you're after my body, right?
0:18:43 > 0:18:45- As if!- My sandwich, then?
0:18:47 > 0:18:51Go on, then. On the condition you tell me what's really going on.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00OK. I've had some personal problems, which have left me...
0:19:00 > 0:19:02well, homeless, really.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04And you haven't got round to getting a place?
0:19:04 > 0:19:08- I just wondered if you could help me out?- Sure, yeah.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10There you go. Property pages.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12I meant could I kip on your sofa?
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Whoa, newsflash - you're not a student any more.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16I know, but I can't afford a flat.
0:19:16 > 0:19:20- I've managed.- You were one of the lucky ones with a full-time job.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22Jealous, dot-com-forward-slash Jas?
0:19:22 > 0:19:25I'm up to my eyeballs in debt
0:19:25 > 0:19:28and my part-time salary's not going to cover it.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30But, hey, I'll be fine.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40The first rung of the ladder. Your very own property.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44Yup! Shame penthouses are so scarce in Letherbridge.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46Do not be deterred.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49Your dream home is waiting for you out there.
0:19:51 > 0:19:57Mrs Hewlett, you know the surgery does not open until four o'clock.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00..that's what it is, outrageous!
0:20:00 > 0:20:06- What's the matter?- Christine "Tickle" gets preferential treatment!
0:20:06 > 0:20:09You don't do anything about my whizzy head.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12- I could have a brain tumour! - Mr Hewlett, have you been drinking?
0:20:12 > 0:20:15That's her fault, celebrating her heart condition!
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Preening herself, because her daughter rings her up!
0:20:18 > 0:20:22My son thinks just as much of me.
0:20:22 > 0:20:26If I was at death's door, he'd be beside himself. He would!
0:20:26 > 0:20:27Let's talk about this inside.
0:20:27 > 0:20:31I have places to see and people to be.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33Bella, please be careful!
0:20:35 > 0:20:37My goodness.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41I'd like my medication, please.
0:20:41 > 0:20:47Christine Tickell, 26 Ashburton Grove.
0:20:51 > 0:20:55Wave your magic wand, did you? Harry?
0:20:55 > 0:20:58I'll think you'll find everything's in order.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00- It had better be. - PHONE RINGS
0:21:03 > 0:21:06JOE CRIES
0:21:09 > 0:21:12PHONE RINGS
0:21:13 > 0:21:14Oh, no.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Hello?
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Hi, you didn't ring as promised.
0:21:21 > 0:21:22Sorry. Been busy.
0:21:22 > 0:21:24'Doing what?'
0:21:24 > 0:21:26Oh, just a day in the life of a house husband.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30- 'My heart bleeds for you.' - JOE CRIES
0:21:30 > 0:21:33Is that Joe crying? He seems far away.
0:21:33 > 0:21:39Yeah, lucky you. I've had a bit of a day with him actually.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41'I think maybe he's cutting a tooth.'
0:21:41 > 0:21:44Really? You should try taking his mind off it.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47I don't believe you can take a baby's mind off pain.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51Are you OK, Daniel?
0:21:51 > 0:21:54Yeah, yeah. Fine. We both are.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56In that case, could you whip up some supper tonight?
0:21:56 > 0:21:57I don't feel like cooking.
0:21:57 > 0:22:01Yeah, sure. No problem. When are you back? Usual time?
0:22:01 > 0:22:04- Yeah, bye.- Yeah.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17Colin, I'm sick of leaving messages...
0:22:17 > 0:22:21Oh, you're there. Hallelujah!
0:22:23 > 0:22:25No, I'm not angry at all.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27I'm just wondering what time I should come over.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Colin?
0:22:32 > 0:22:36Why is it awkward? I need to give my granddaughter her birthday money.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41A cheque?
0:22:41 > 0:22:45Did Valerie put you up to this? I bet she's sitting there listening.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49Well, I hope she can hear me. I hope she can hear me when I say
0:22:49 > 0:22:52I'm not begging for the crumbs from her table!
0:22:53 > 0:22:56SHE SOBS
0:23:04 > 0:23:08- You're welcome.- Thanks, bye.- Bye.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11I see, thank you. Sorry to have troubled you.
0:23:11 > 0:23:16Oh, Doctor. Thank goodness. I think Harry Potter's drug dealing.
0:23:16 > 0:23:17Sorry?
0:23:17 > 0:23:20The chemist is adamant that you collected your medication.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23Nonsense. It's some kind of scam.
0:23:23 > 0:23:27He said Mrs Tickell came in at four o'clock.
0:23:27 > 0:23:28She was the worse for drink.
0:23:28 > 0:23:33It couldn't have been me! One of my grandsons rang me at four.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37Such a lovely boy and really anxious about my heart condition.
0:23:37 > 0:23:41Not everyone can claim to have such a caring family.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44Mrs Tembe, could you phone Bella Hewlett? Tell her I'm on my way.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47Bella? I'm the one that's ill!
0:23:48 > 0:23:52- This is outrageous, simply outrageous.- Any luck?
0:23:52 > 0:23:54- No reply.- Keep trying.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56You might be able to help me out here, Christine.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58- What?- Please.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00PHONE RINGS
0:24:00 > 0:24:03Colin...is that you...
0:24:03 > 0:24:07- DOOR LATCH CLICKS - Too late...- Bella?
0:24:07 > 0:24:10Can't....can't...
0:24:10 > 0:24:13Bella, it's Dr...
0:24:13 > 0:24:17- Can you hear me? - Doctor...Colin rang...
0:24:18 > 0:24:20This is Dr Khella from the Mill Health Centre.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24Can you send an ambulance to 54 Windermere Road?
0:24:24 > 0:24:2867-year-old woman with reduced consciousness, shortness of breath.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30Possible overdose.
0:24:30 > 0:24:31When's he coming?
0:24:31 > 0:24:34OK, Bella, try to stay calm.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39- May I go with her in the ambulance? - Yes, of course.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43Colin's coming, dear.
0:24:43 > 0:24:44Christine, before it's too late.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47I want you to know you're my best friend.
0:24:47 > 0:24:51We've argued, but we've always been close, haven't we?
0:24:51 > 0:24:55- Say you'll forgive me. - Bella, you're not dying.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Aren't I? Oh... Oh, thank goodness.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01I've been so stupid.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04- She'll want to take it all back now. - No, I don't.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06Why don't you two try and turn things round, together?
0:25:06 > 0:25:09Interesting women should be leading interesting lives!
0:25:09 > 0:25:12We'll talk about it when Bella's better.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15Sorry I stole your tablets.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18Blame it on my sherry, dear friend.
0:25:18 > 0:25:24Speaking of which, have you ever been to Jerez de la Frontera...?
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Any news of Bella?
0:25:26 > 0:25:28Yeah, the hospital rang.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31They're keeping her in overnight, but she seems to be doing OK.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33That's good. Pretty impressive first day!
0:25:33 > 0:25:35See you later.
0:25:35 > 0:25:40- Yes, well done. But remember, one swallow doesn't make a summer. - I won't let it go to my head.
0:25:40 > 0:25:42Good answer.
0:25:42 > 0:25:43Have a lovely evening.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45Sour grapes?
0:25:47 > 0:25:49Any more pearls of wisdom to impart?
0:25:49 > 0:25:51No. I...
0:25:53 > 0:25:56I admire how you've taken charge of today,
0:25:56 > 0:25:58especially as you're going through it.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Sympathy? You?
0:26:00 > 0:26:03So you can have the spare room if you want it.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05Really, are you sure?
0:26:06 > 0:26:10Just for a few nights until you get yourself sorted.
0:26:10 > 0:26:12- Deal?- Deal!
0:26:15 > 0:26:17JOE SCREECHES
0:26:30 > 0:26:33Joe?
0:26:34 > 0:26:37Joe, what on earth's the matter?
0:26:37 > 0:26:41Daniel! When did you last change him?
0:26:41 > 0:26:45It's all right, darling, it's all right.
0:26:45 > 0:26:49Oh, dear. Sh. Sh...
0:26:51 > 0:26:54Sh. Sh...
0:26:56 > 0:27:00It can be our little secret. Kevin Tyler. Are you blushing?
0:27:00 > 0:27:02I've never blushed in my life.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04In fact, he's a very special case.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06Firstly, I'm not a case.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08And secondly, I just want to be treated normally.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11Well, you know that's never been possible.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13Big deal. Get over it. I have.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16Have you? How would I know?
0:27:16 > 0:27:18Shout at me. Scream. Do something...
