0:00:28 > 0:00:32You fancy going for a late night supper, after I finish work tonight,
0:00:32 > 0:00:33the nice Italian you like?
0:00:35 > 0:00:37Either you've won the Lottery, or there's an offer on.
0:00:37 > 0:00:41There's an offer on. Two-for-one. You can have olives, and everything.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43You haven't checked the calendar, have you?
0:00:43 > 0:00:46Cos if you'd checked the calendar, you would know I'm going out with Maggie tonight.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49We never go out, me and you. I thought, now the kids have gone...
0:00:49 > 0:00:52Don't say it like that, like you're glad to be rid of 'em!
0:00:52 > 0:00:54..that we'd be living the high life.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56I know your idea of a high life!
0:00:56 > 0:00:59First one was the dirty weekend...
0:00:59 > 0:01:01That was fun, wasn't it?
0:01:01 > 0:01:04Yeah, especially the bit where you get locked out of our hotel room
0:01:04 > 0:01:08and flashed that woman! Why do all our evenings end in disaster?
0:01:08 > 0:01:11So you're going for a girls' night out with Maggie?
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Oh, yeah. I'll make it up later on in the week to you.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16How about making it up later on tonight?
0:01:17 > 0:01:19Am I on a promise?
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Bye! See you!
0:01:29 > 0:01:31Hey. Hi!
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Back to the grind.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36Well, I don't think I'd make a very good Scandi detective.
0:01:36 > 0:01:37You're just not gloomy enough.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39Right, so what are we going to watch next?
0:01:39 > 0:01:41I've got the complete Sex And The City.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Your face!
0:01:52 > 0:01:55MAN BARKS LIKE A DOG
0:01:55 > 0:01:56And give him his bowl of water.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00It's not Bonfire Night till tomorrow.
0:02:00 > 0:02:01It's bad enough as it is now.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04Still, you've got some help. Oh...?
0:02:04 > 0:02:08You've got a trainee police surgeon. They're going to shadow you.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Does it have to be today? Orders from on high.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12Does it have to be me?
0:02:12 > 0:02:14I've got enough on my plate without baby-sitting a trainee.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16It's a she. C'mon, you know, Doc,
0:02:16 > 0:02:18female police surgeons are like gold dust.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20Yeah, well, they should pay me more.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23Hi. I'm Dr Sarah Kennett.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25Claudia, what are you doing back here again?
0:02:25 > 0:02:28I'm looking for Sergeant Hollins?
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Yeah, you've found him. Hello. This is Dr Emma Reid.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Dr Reid. Thanks for letting me shadow you. I appreciate it.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Oh, shut the... Don't worry about him.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39He's one of our regulars, Ronnie Akingbola.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42Somebody should tell him that it was Halloween last week.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44He sounds distressed. Shouldn't we...
0:02:44 > 0:02:45No, I've just checked on him.
0:02:45 > 0:02:50Apart from his multiple health problems, he's no worse than usual.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Right, follow me. I'll show you the police surgeon's room.
0:02:58 > 0:02:59KNOCKING
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Hello? Hey.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Jimmi!
0:03:03 > 0:03:06The official Plasden fan website!
0:03:06 > 0:03:09I was just curious. There's some sad geeks on there.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Hm. Pot, kettle.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13I'm not obsessed. Not at all.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Anyway, what can I do for you?
0:03:15 > 0:03:18Susie Smart isn't playing tonight. She's on next month. Oh.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21But there is a band called The Fellowship Of The Ping.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24They're pretty good, so I was wondering if you wanted to come along and, er...
0:03:24 > 0:03:28Tonight? Yeah. Well, if you've got plans, if you're going to a fireworks party or something...
0:03:28 > 0:03:30I'd love to.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33Taak. Taak. OK. Straight from work,
0:03:33 > 0:03:37we'll grab some good on the way. Yeah, sounds good to me. Cool.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45Record-keeping is essential. Every detail.
0:03:45 > 0:03:49Of course. With the right evidence, we can solve a crime.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Well, medical evidence can help,
0:03:51 > 0:03:55but the police solve the crimes. It's not CSI, you know.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Mostly, we're patching up drunks and junkies
0:03:59 > 0:04:03and deciding on whether people are fit enough to interview.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07So, why did you decide to do this?
0:04:09 > 0:04:12Well, I work in a nice GP practice, I live in a nice area,
0:04:12 > 0:04:14my patients are well-off.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17Apart from being mugged outside a supermarket once,
0:04:17 > 0:04:18I've never even met a criminal.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20Well, if you work here, that will change.
0:04:20 > 0:04:24I want a challenge. I've got the experience and knowledge to make a difference, so...
0:04:24 > 0:04:27KNOCKING Come in.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30Got a customer for you, ladies. Linda Ball.
0:04:30 > 0:04:31In you come, Linda.
0:04:36 > 0:04:37Hello, Linda.
0:04:42 > 0:04:43Cheer up.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Why?
0:04:46 > 0:04:50You did the right thing. She is OK, though?
0:04:50 > 0:04:53Yes, I keep telling you! She's fine.
0:04:53 > 0:04:54Really?
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Yeah, really.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58Kevin?
0:05:00 > 0:05:03The good news is, it's not broken.
0:05:03 > 0:05:04There's quite a bit of bruising.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07I want him charged.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Why did he hit you this time?
0:05:12 > 0:05:14Because I got the wrong type of balsamic vinegar.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Something always sets him off.
0:05:19 > 0:05:20Or nothing.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Well, if you do want him charged, we've got the evidence.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Photos of your injuries.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29All you have to do is make a statement,
0:05:29 > 0:05:31and your husband'll be arrested.
0:05:31 > 0:05:32And he'll be locked up?
0:05:34 > 0:05:37If he's charged. But he may get bail.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40But I can promise you Sergeant Hollins will do everything...
0:05:40 > 0:05:42I can't do this. I've got to go.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44Linda, wait. He'll kill me.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46He can't kill you if he's locked up.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49But he won't be, will he?
0:05:49 > 0:05:51He'll be bailed, and you know that.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54And if he isn't... I should never have come here.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56Look, at least let me finish cleaning you up.
0:05:56 > 0:05:57Then you can make a statement.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00But I haven't got time. He's at the pub.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02If I go now, I can get back before he gets home
0:06:02 > 0:06:07and he'll never know I came here and everything will be all right.
0:06:07 > 0:06:08Till the next time.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12What are you going to do now?
0:06:12 > 0:06:14I'll put some make-up on.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18You'll need a good concealer. Yes, well. I've done that before.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Why should you lie for him?
0:06:21 > 0:06:23But I can't leave him now.
0:06:23 > 0:06:27We've got a dinner party tomorrow night. We've got friends coming!
0:06:27 > 0:06:28You don't have to go back to him,
0:06:28 > 0:06:32you don't ever have to see him again if you don't want to.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Linda, please let us help you.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38But you can't. Can you?
0:06:42 > 0:06:45You told Sigourney you can't go out with her any more
0:06:45 > 0:06:47because you're dying of a made-up illness?
0:06:47 > 0:06:49It was supposed to make her feel better.
0:06:49 > 0:06:50Saying you're terminally ill?
0:06:50 > 0:06:54Yes, so she wouldn't think that it was her fault that I couldn't...
0:06:54 > 0:06:55I was trying to be sensitive!
0:06:55 > 0:06:57You complete prat.
0:06:57 > 0:06:58I feel terrible about it, OK?
0:06:58 > 0:07:01Yeah. So terrible you're swanning off on holiday!
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Maybe I wasn't ready for a real relationship.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06You're 30, Kevin. When are you going to be ready?
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Last week, she was "the one".
0:07:08 > 0:07:10You're throwing all that away, because you have a problem.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13It's never happened to me before. It hasn't!
0:07:13 > 0:07:15You know it's temporary, or it can be treated,
0:07:15 > 0:07:17but you just want to run away.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19Take all that baggage into your next relationship `
0:07:19 > 0:07:22what if it happens again? I give up.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29One thing to think about. Your clothes. My clothes?
0:07:29 > 0:07:33Mm. You're showing a bit of cleavage. Best not to show any.
0:07:33 > 0:07:34High-necked blouses all the way,
0:07:34 > 0:07:36unless you want the crims looking at your boobs.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Oh, no, of course not.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41Two words to gladden your heart, Doc. Big Steve.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44He's early. Yeah. Probably thought he'd come now and beat the rush.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46Arrested for assault, cuts and bruises.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49I need to know how unfit he is for interview. Thanks, Rob(!)
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Big Steve? He's harmless. Do you want to help out?
0:07:52 > 0:07:54Sure. Anything I should know?
0:07:54 > 0:07:58He's dying. Cirrhosis of the liver, and he's homeless.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01And he does have a habit of throwing his faeces at people
0:08:01 > 0:08:02when he's in a bad mood.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05It's fine. You just need to remember to duck.
0:08:15 > 0:08:20Jimmi Clay, what do you say, shall we go for a pint?
0:08:20 > 0:08:22No, I can't. I'm going to a gig tonight.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25Rock and roll... Oh, that hurts. Let's do that instead.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28It's been ages since we've had gentlemen's day.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Er, I'm going with Jas.
0:08:30 > 0:08:35Hm. All right. Well, have fun.
0:08:35 > 0:08:35OK.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40Yeah, OK, Karen, I'll lock up.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43You're a star! See you tomorrow.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Yeah. Bye!
0:08:46 > 0:08:49Ready? Yeah.
0:08:50 > 0:08:51After you.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Ernie, this is Dr Kennett.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04Hello. Is it raining out?
0:09:04 > 0:09:06No. Got hosed down.
0:09:06 > 0:09:11We've got a big office building, by the station, there's an undercroft.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Sometimes some of our homeless friends, they sleep there.
0:09:13 > 0:09:18But the owners don't like it, so every now and again they bring a high-powered hose, don't they?
0:09:18 > 0:09:20They flushed us out.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Is that legal?
0:09:22 > 0:09:26It happens. Ernie, I'm going to get someone to find you some dry clothes.
0:09:26 > 0:09:27And I'm going to get you a cup of tea.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29Thanks, you're very kind.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33The bloke who assaulted you. Do you know who it was?
0:09:33 > 0:09:35He said he was going to rip out my heart.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39Do you know his name? No. They just call him Psycho.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Boss, Ronnie's having a seizure. I'll see to him.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45Thanks. You never know - he might not be faking it this time.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48Sarah. Are you all right to carry on here? Yes, of course.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54Don't worry, I've done this before.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02This might sting a bit.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05Thanks. You're very kind.
0:10:05 > 0:10:06It's a nasty cut.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09Are you sure you don't want to bring charges?
0:10:09 > 0:10:13No. I deserve it. I'm a bad person.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16I'm sure that's not true. I am.
0:10:16 > 0:10:17I killed someone.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23It was 1981, the year of the Royal Wedding.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27She was such a lovely girl.
0:10:27 > 0:10:28Who was, Ernie?
0:10:29 > 0:10:30Princess Diana.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33If it'd help to talk about it...
0:10:33 > 0:10:35It was my dad. I killed my dad.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40I was ill, see. Heard voices.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42They weren't real, but I thought they were.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45They said that I had to kill him.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48I pushed him in the canal.
0:10:48 > 0:10:52They all thought it was an accident, but it wasn't, it was me.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56Um...
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Ernie's just confessed to a murder.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06We need to have a quick word. Stay there, Ernie.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Claudia, stop getting into so many fights!
0:11:13 > 0:11:16If you're going to dress like a lady, at least act like one, eh?
0:11:19 > 0:11:23Here. Your patient ` he's here all the time.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25We call him Ernie the Confessor.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28He's confessed to every murder that's happened and some that haven't.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31But what if this time he's telling the truth?
0:11:31 > 0:11:34It would've been classed as an accidental death, surely we can...
0:11:34 > 0:11:35I know it's not true.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39His dad is alive and well and living in an old folk's home.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41Ernie was diagnosed with schizophrenia
0:11:41 > 0:11:42when he was a teenager.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44But he sounded so real.
0:11:44 > 0:11:48You'd be surprised what people would confess to, to get a bed.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Who's his GP?
0:11:50 > 0:11:52No, he sleeps rough - he hasn't got one.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55He shuttles between hospital, the streets, prison and here.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57There must be something we can do.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Take your time cleaning him up. Why?
0:12:00 > 0:12:02He's in here for breach of the peace,
0:12:02 > 0:12:04so the longer we all take to process him,
0:12:04 > 0:12:06the longer he gets to stay in the warm.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24BAAAAABBBBBE! KAZZA!!
0:12:24 > 0:12:28Kazza! You're looking fantastic.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30So are you ` you've lost weight.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32I haven't. Well, not much.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34I think this dress just makes me look slimmer.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38I got us a table. They're doing cocktails with sparklers in.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40Gunpowder, they call them.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Bring them on!
0:12:45 > 0:12:46KNOCKING
0:12:46 > 0:12:47Come in.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54Right. There you are, Nell. I've put you some sugar in.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56Thanks.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58Now, the police will need to interview you,
0:12:58 > 0:13:01but I need to look at your injuries first.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03OK?
0:13:07 > 0:13:12Ooh. I'll have to take some photographs. Will that be all right?
0:13:12 > 0:13:14WEAKLY: Yeah, yeah.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17OK. I know it takes a lot of courage to come in,
0:13:17 > 0:13:20but you've done the right thing.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22So you're going to press charges?
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Yeah. I think so.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Good. What's your boyfriend's name?
0:13:28 > 0:13:30You're going to arrest him?
0:13:30 > 0:13:31We certainly are.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36Paul. Paul...Miller.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38And does he live with you?
0:13:38 > 0:13:42Not all the time. I've never been to his place.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44Sorry, I don't know his address...
0:13:44 > 0:13:47That's all right. If he's on the system, we'll find him.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49Can you describe him to me, please?
0:13:50 > 0:13:51Er...
0:13:51 > 0:13:55He's...very tall.
0:13:55 > 0:13:59He's got tattoos everywhere and a scar on his forehead.
0:14:01 > 0:14:06And he's got these... mad, like, starey eyes...
0:14:06 > 0:14:08It's OK. Right, OK. Paul Miller.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Let's try and get this sorted.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18I haven't been to a gig for ages!
0:14:18 > 0:14:21How much do I owe you for the ticket?
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Don't be silly. You can get them next time.
0:14:23 > 0:14:24Next time?
0:14:24 > 0:14:26Right, I'll get some drinks.
0:14:26 > 0:14:31Oh, do you want me to...? Right, thanks. Cheers.
0:14:35 > 0:14:36I think she's lying.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38What? But you saw her injuries.
0:14:38 > 0:14:39Oh, they're real all right.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42I think she's lying about how she got them.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44Or rather who gave them to her.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47How can you say that? It's hard enough for victims of domestic abuse
0:14:47 > 0:14:50to come forward. Look at that poor lady earlier.
0:14:50 > 0:14:51And if no-one believes them...
0:14:51 > 0:14:53Something's not adding up.
0:14:53 > 0:14:57Her injuries aren't consistent with what she describes.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59She said her boyfriend pushed her down the stairs.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01What injuries would you expect to see?
0:15:01 > 0:15:04Bruises and lacerations to her back, but...
0:15:04 > 0:15:06Exactly. And there aren't any.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08That still doesn't mean that she's...
0:15:08 > 0:15:12Come on. The description. "Mad, starey eyes"?
0:15:12 > 0:15:15It's just that some people who commit crimes
0:15:15 > 0:15:18invent this fictitious villain who's done it instead.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20They always have mad, starey eyes.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22You think she's making it up based on that?
0:15:22 > 0:15:27Normally, I would be very suspicious. But Paul Miller's real.
0:15:27 > 0:15:31He's got loads of previous, including domestic violence.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33And he matches the description.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35So I am going to bring him in.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44THEY LAUGH
0:15:45 > 0:15:48There's two blokes giving us the eye over there.
0:15:48 > 0:15:49Don't look!
0:15:49 > 0:15:51I've got to. I'll be subtle.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56Oh, my God, they're coming over!
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Can I buy you two ladies a drink?
0:16:01 > 0:16:03Sorry, lads. We're spoken for.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06We're married. Not to each other.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08All right, cheers.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11Play it cool, you said. Subtle, you said!
0:16:11 > 0:16:12We've still got it! Yeah!
0:16:12 > 0:16:16See? That's what men want. They don't just want someone young.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19They want women like us with a bit of maturity and confidence,
0:16:19 > 0:16:20and experience.
0:16:20 > 0:16:24Oh, I've got experience all right! Lots of experience.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31All right, calm down, Paul. Get off me! I'm innocent!
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Get off me! Calm down! Stop it!
0:16:34 > 0:16:36Leave it out.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38We'll talk to you when you're sober.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45Let me out!
0:16:45 > 0:16:48It's good news, Nell. You're safe now.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51You've arrested him?
0:16:52 > 0:16:54Yep, he's in custody.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56But...how did you...?
0:16:56 > 0:16:58That was easy. We've nicked him before.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03I don't want to press charges.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05Don't give up now, Nell, you've come this far.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07I don't want to get anyone into trouble.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09If he's hit you, he's got himself into trouble.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11It's not your fault.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13I can't. I can't. I'm sorry.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15If you go back to him now, it'll get worse.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17It always does. He could kill you.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19He's done it to other women, not just you.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21If you make a complaint, we can get him charged,
0:17:21 > 0:17:24get him off the street, and he won't get away with it again.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27He hasn't done anything, he didn't do it! Someone did.
0:17:30 > 0:17:31I did it to myself.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Nell, you don't have to lie for him.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36I'm not lying, I've never even met him!
0:17:36 > 0:17:38So who have I got sitting in my cell?
0:17:38 > 0:17:41I made him up.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43I didn't know there was a real Paul Miller!
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Testing, one, two, one, two.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53I don't think much of the lyrics!
0:17:53 > 0:17:55SCATTERED APPLAUSE
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Where's this band, then?
0:17:58 > 0:18:02They're here, I reckon. Just making us wait. Delayed gratification.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05They're probably out the back going, "We'll give it another hour or so."
0:18:05 > 0:18:09Do you want to play a game? It's something I do when I'm on my own.
0:18:09 > 0:18:10OK.
0:18:10 > 0:18:14You look at the other people in the pub and imagine what they're saying.
0:18:14 > 0:18:18So...I'll go first. See that woman over there?
0:18:18 > 0:18:19Yeah.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21So...
0:18:21 > 0:18:23RUSSIAN ACCENT: "Where is my contact?
0:18:23 > 0:18:26"I have brought the secret codes. I am here.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28"Maybe he has been intercepted...
0:18:28 > 0:18:31"Oh, no, he is here.
0:18:31 > 0:18:32"All right, duck!
0:18:32 > 0:18:35"The Black Country's off, they were changing the barrel,
0:18:35 > 0:18:38"but I got us some pork scratchings..." What accent is that?
0:18:38 > 0:18:40Russian.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42It's about as Russian as a meerkat!
0:18:42 > 0:18:44Go on, your turn...
0:18:44 > 0:18:47OK. Um... "I'm MASSIVELY pretentious.
0:18:47 > 0:18:51"I do love the sound of my own voice, but then I am a genius."
0:18:51 > 0:18:52"Oh, Neville, you're so clever.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55"I wish I could be as profound as you." Neville?!
0:18:55 > 0:18:57He looks like a Neville. APPLAUSE
0:18:57 > 0:19:00Ooh, finally, something's happening.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02Promise me - no air guitar.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04I won't if you won't.
0:19:08 > 0:19:12We have real victims of domestic violence who come here
0:19:12 > 0:19:13and are in fear of their lives.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16I'm sorry. I didn't want to get anyone into trouble.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19You didn't think that coming to a police station
0:19:19 > 0:19:21and making an accusation like that and giving us a name,
0:19:21 > 0:19:24that we wouldn't go and try and find them and arrest them?
0:19:24 > 0:19:27No. I'm so sorry.
0:19:27 > 0:19:31You are very lucky that I don't charge you with wasting police time.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33Just go home.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35Wait a minute.
0:19:35 > 0:19:40Nell... why do you think you self-harm?
0:19:40 > 0:19:41I don't know.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45I never used to before I came to uni.
0:19:47 > 0:19:51Well, you're not alone. Lots of people self-harm.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54If you can work out why, maybe you can stop.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58I don't know anyone.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01I can't talk to anyone.
0:20:01 > 0:20:02You're talking to us.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Yeah, but...but at college.
0:20:05 > 0:20:09I go to lectures, I do my coursework,
0:20:09 > 0:20:13and there's days when I don't talk to anyone.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15No-one notices.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Lots of students probably feel the way you do.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20No, they don't.
0:20:21 > 0:20:27Everyone else can hack it. It's just me that's useless.
0:20:27 > 0:20:31You ask me why I do this to myself. Why not?
0:20:31 > 0:20:33No-one notices.
0:20:33 > 0:20:34Do you want them to?
0:20:36 > 0:20:38Well, erm...
0:20:38 > 0:20:43one person did. This lecturer.
0:20:43 > 0:20:49She thought it was domestic violence, someone'd done this to me.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53She was so sympathetic.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56And you thought if you came here, we'd be sympathetic too.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Yeah.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00I didn't want to accuse anyone.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02You must think I'm mental.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05I'm not...I'm not like this at...
0:21:05 > 0:21:09At home I had friends. I had people I could talk to.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12So what's changed? Apart from leaving home?
0:21:16 > 0:21:17My dad died.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20I'm sorry.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22And you haven't told anyone?
0:21:24 > 0:21:26Great conversation starter(!)
0:21:28 > 0:21:29"What course are you doing?
0:21:29 > 0:21:33"I'm doing IT, and oh, yeah, my dad's just died."
0:21:35 > 0:21:38I'm sure there's a counsellor at the university
0:21:38 > 0:21:41that you can talk to. They'll listen.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43They won't think you're weird. Would that help?
0:21:49 > 0:21:52See, I thought I'd mind when the kids left.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55But Rob minded more. He really missed them.
0:21:57 > 0:22:01Even talked about fostering at one point. Fostering?
0:22:01 > 0:22:04I think it was a phase, a reaction.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Just enjoy your freedom while you've got it.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10There'll soon be the patter of tiny feet again.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Do you know something I don't?
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Grandchildren! Oh, them!
0:22:14 > 0:22:20You'll be baby-sitting and changing nappies, reading them stories.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23Singing Making Your Mind Up to get them to sleep.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26I've done all that. I don't want to do it again.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29Anyway, Jack and Immie don't seem to want kids.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31It's not always something you plan.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33They've got careers. We didn't have careers.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Speak for yourself!
0:22:35 > 0:22:37They're so clever.
0:22:37 > 0:22:41Oh, you know, going to uni and art college.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45I'm so proud of them.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47You need another drink!
0:22:48 > 0:22:52What time is it? Oh, my days!
0:22:52 > 0:22:53It's after ten!
0:22:53 > 0:22:56So? Are you going to turn into a pumpkin?
0:22:56 > 0:23:01No, I've got to phone Robert. He'll be finishing his shift.
0:23:01 > 0:23:02I've got to ring him.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07I can't get my glasses on!
0:23:14 > 0:23:16You did well.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19I've seen people take one look at this place and run away screaming.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21And that was just the Chief Super!
0:23:21 > 0:23:25Seriously. You've survived your first shift, that's the main thing.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Anyway, I've been summoned by the missus, so I better go.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29See you soon. Might see you again.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37I'm not fishing for compliments, but really, how did I do?
0:23:37 > 0:23:39You did very well.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44You obviously care about the patients, even the crims.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47That's a novelty in itself. How did you find it?
0:23:47 > 0:23:50I loved it. It's so interesting. Nothing's like you'd expect.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52Mm, this place can be addictive.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56I know I need to stop making assumptions. I need to listen more.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58We haven't scared you off, though?
0:23:58 > 0:24:00Not at all. Bring it on.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03BOTH: # Like a vir-gin
0:24:03 > 0:24:07# Touched for the very first tiiiiime
0:24:07 > 0:24:11# Like a vir-ir-ir-ir-gin
0:24:11 > 0:24:16# When your heart beats next to-o mine! #
0:24:16 > 0:24:19Oh, there's Rob. All right, Rob? Hiya!
0:24:19 > 0:24:22Aw! Kazza. Ba-abe!
0:24:22 > 0:24:24THEY GIGGLE
0:24:24 > 0:24:27How are you getting home, Maggie? I've got a taxi, it's all right.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Are you sure? Yeah!
0:24:29 > 0:24:31Be careful. Bye!
0:24:34 > 0:24:35How many have you had?
0:24:35 > 0:24:38I'm not drunk! Only had a cockle-a...couple...
0:24:38 > 0:24:40couple of cocktails!
0:24:40 > 0:24:43Really? So why are you trying to get in the driver's side?
0:24:43 > 0:24:46Oh! Go on, get round. I'll reverse so you can get in.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48You're bossy.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51I'll make it up to you.
0:24:51 > 0:24:52Karen, go on! Go!
0:24:57 > 0:24:59Oh, flaming Ada! Oh!
0:24:59 > 0:25:01HE STARTS ENGINE

0:25:10 > 0:25:12SHE GROANS Are you all right?
0:25:12 > 0:25:15Agh! You said I was drunk!
0:25:15 > 0:25:17You ran me over!
0:25:18 > 0:25:21SHE GIGGLES
0:25:21 > 0:25:23Come on.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25It's been a brilliant evening. Yeah.
0:25:25 > 0:25:29Thank you for asking me. Well, I'm glad I did.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35HOOTING That'll be my cab.
0:25:35 > 0:25:39Yeah. Just give me a text when you're back,
0:25:39 > 0:25:40so I know you're safe.
0:25:40 > 0:25:45Yeah. See you tomorrow. OK. See you.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50I know I hit you because I heard it.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52You didn't. It's just my shoulder...
0:25:52 > 0:25:54Yeah, well, I hope nothing's broken.
0:25:56 > 0:26:00I'm fine, I'm just bladdered and I want to go home.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02I think we should go to A
0:26:02 > 0:26:06We'll be there all night! I want to sleep in my own bed.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10Let's just make sure. Go on, we'll get it checked over properly.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13I'm HCA-trained.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16I'd know if there's something wrong.
0:26:16 > 0:26:20There's loads of doctors at work. I'll get them to check me over
0:26:20 > 0:26:22if you're still worried, OK?
0:26:22 > 0:26:26Stop fussing, please, let's go home.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32SHE GIGGLES
0:26:32 > 0:26:35Wait till I tell the kids!
0:26:35 > 0:26:36"Your dad ran me over."
0:26:38 > 0:26:41You're never going to let me forget this, are you?
0:26:41 > 0:26:43Not on your life, sunshine!
0:26:45 > 0:26:48Scared the bloody life out of me, woman!
0:26:56 > 0:26:59If you don't get a move on, you're going to be late for work.
0:26:59 > 0:27:00Get up!
0:27:00 > 0:27:03Is the environmental inspection happening today or not?
0:27:03 > 0:27:06We're the only ones that should know about this. Nobody else.
0:27:06 > 0:27:10Don't worry. Your dirty little secret is safe with me.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12It's more serious than we thought.
0:27:14 > 0:27:15A lot more serious.
