0:00:40 > 0:00:42Keith?

0:00:45 > 0:00:46Are you coming?

0:00:49 > 0:00:51Work, work, work,

0:00:51 > 0:00:53that's all he ever thinks of.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59Hello, could I speak with Mr Keith Gossman, please?

0:00:59 > 0:01:02So, Mr Potts, Dr Carter's just been called away on an emergency.

0:01:02 > 0:01:05So you can either see the replacement doctor this afternoon

0:01:05 > 0:01:07or a nurse right now.

0:01:07 > 0:01:08What would you like to do?

0:01:11 > 0:01:12I'm going to have to hurry you...

0:01:12 > 0:01:16- I'll see the nurse. - Good choice, Mr Potts.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18PHONE RINGS

0:01:18 > 0:01:20Hello, Campus Sur...

0:01:22 > 0:01:24Mrs Trenchard, you need to see a doctor...

0:01:24 > 0:01:26Hello, dear. Renee Gossman. I got a call.

0:01:26 > 0:01:28Sorry, I'm just dealing with...

0:01:28 > 0:01:29They said I had to see Dr Carter.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31Why have I got to see Dr Carter?

0:01:31 > 0:01:33Could you just wait your turn, Mrs Gossman?

0:01:33 > 0:01:35He must have designs on me, cos I'm not ill.

0:01:35 > 0:01:39I'll be with you in a moment. If you'd just like to take a seat?

0:01:48 > 0:01:50- Boiled sweet?- No, thank you.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52Suit yourself. You're just like my son.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54He never has time to eat.

0:01:54 > 0:01:57No wonder you youngsters have got no attention span.

0:02:03 > 0:02:05I need a favour.

0:02:05 > 0:02:06Heston's out on an emergency

0:02:06 > 0:02:09and I need a doctor over at the Campus to clear the back log.

0:02:09 > 0:02:10Al?

0:02:10 > 0:02:12No, I'm snowed under all day.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14I thought you were only doing paperwork?

0:02:14 > 0:02:17Paperwork can wait, can't it? Good man.

0:02:17 > 0:02:19Yes, good man, Al.

0:02:19 > 0:02:21Oh, I'm glad I caught you before you go out on patrol.

0:02:21 > 0:02:23Daniel and I wanted a favour.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26We both would like the afternoon of the 13th off, it's Joe's birthday?

0:02:26 > 0:02:29Ooh, the 13th. It's Letherbridge's Real Ale Festival.

0:02:29 > 0:02:32We've got 53 of the finest ales these united kingdoms have to offer.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35Be the perfect occasion for a second-year-old's birth...

0:02:35 > 0:02:38Probably wouldn't. I'm just going to shut up...

0:02:38 > 0:02:40Shouldn't be a problem.

0:02:40 > 0:02:42I can't believe that Joe's nearly two!

0:02:42 > 0:02:44Are you going to put him into pre-school

0:02:44 > 0:02:45or are you going to do it next year?

0:02:45 > 0:02:46What?

0:02:46 > 0:02:49What is this obsession with pre-school?

0:02:49 > 0:02:50I had Mrs Green yabbering on all morning

0:02:50 > 0:02:52about whether she should send her son

0:02:52 > 0:02:55to Goldingtons or Banyons or Hogwarts, for all I care.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57I'm sorry, how old is her son?

0:02:57 > 0:02:5818 months.

0:02:58 > 0:03:01She's already got him a tutor for "school readiness",

0:03:01 > 0:03:02whatever that is. Sounds ridiculous.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05Why has nobody told me about this?

0:03:05 > 0:03:07Surely the other mums must have mentioned something?

0:03:07 > 0:03:09I don't hang out with other mums.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11All they talk about is nappies,

0:03:11 > 0:03:14and how to hide vegetables in toddlers' dinners.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16What about your NCT group?

0:03:16 > 0:03:17They weren't my kind of people.

0:03:17 > 0:03:21- Oh?- They used to arrive wearing sweat pants,

0:03:21 > 0:03:23and then sit in a huddle

0:03:23 > 0:03:24and giggle.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32All right, Sarge?

0:03:32 > 0:03:33Yeah.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46Oh, am I pleased to see you.

0:03:46 > 0:03:47It has been one of those mornings.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49Oh, well, you have finished now.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52You go to lunch and I will get ready for this afternoon.

0:03:52 > 0:03:53It should be easier.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55We've got two doctors, so I've given the re-appointments

0:03:55 > 0:03:58to Dr Carter, and Dr Haskey will do the drop-ins.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01Thank you. You go and enjoy your lunch.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03Oh, I'm going to go to the park.

0:04:03 > 0:04:05I've got a new edition of 30 Minutes.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07I am going to immerse myself in scandal -

0:04:07 > 0:04:10who's going out with who, who's in rehab.

0:04:10 > 0:04:11And I've got a cheese sandwich.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14Well, that sounds... Well, yes.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16And there'll be no interruptions.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18PHONE BEEPS

0:04:18 > 0:04:22Ooh, before I go, shall I book you an appointment with Dr Carter?

0:04:22 > 0:04:23Oh, no, I haven't got time today.

0:04:23 > 0:04:26I've got to go to Amberley Pharmaceuticals. Do you know it?

0:04:26 > 0:04:28Well, I've seen their logo on our boxes.

0:04:28 > 0:04:31My son works there. He's doing ever so well.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33- Oh, well...- Mind you, they work him all hours, you know.

0:04:33 > 0:04:37And he's all I've got since me husband died.

0:04:37 > 0:04:40- Would you like a boiled sweet? - Oh, yes, please.

0:04:41 > 0:04:42There we go.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45So did you say you were in a bit of a rush?

0:04:45 > 0:04:47It's working out the best route.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49Do you know the buses?

0:04:50 > 0:04:52I tell you what, I'll take you.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54It's on my way to the park.

0:04:57 > 0:05:00OK, I know I'm late and probably not at my best.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02So, if you want to tear a strip off me...

0:05:02 > 0:05:05I wouldn't expect you to be firing on all cylinders.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08- Is that it?- Is that what?

0:05:08 > 0:05:10You've been through a lot.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12Why would I want to make things worse?

0:05:12 > 0:05:14Grab yourself a cuppa. Settle in.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19Why did you take all those?

0:05:19 > 0:05:21They're for taking, aren't they?

0:05:21 > 0:05:24Yeah, but you're only supposed to take the ones that...concern you.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26At my age, everything concerns you.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30'Ere, this is just for cancer, bereavement

0:05:30 > 0:05:31and under the pinny stuff.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34Haven't you got anything for bunions?

0:05:34 > 0:05:35Have you got bunions?

0:05:35 > 0:05:36No, not yet.

0:05:42 > 0:05:43Hello!

0:05:43 > 0:05:46Don't get your hopes up. This is serious.

0:05:46 > 0:05:50Do you realise that some of Joe's contemporaries are getting coaching?

0:05:50 > 0:05:51What are you talking about?

0:05:51 > 0:05:54When Joe starts school, the other kids will be reading The Hobbit

0:05:54 > 0:05:56while he struggles with Chip and Kipper.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58OK, what do you want to do about it?

0:05:58 > 0:06:01Bare minimum, we need his name on a waiting list for a good school.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03We need to take some time off work and attend the open days.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05We haven't started discussing schools yet.

0:06:05 > 0:06:06We're running out of time.

0:06:06 > 0:06:08What are your thoughts on Winterfields?

0:06:08 > 0:06:10Winterfields? We don't have to go private, do we?

0:06:10 > 0:06:13Let me have a chat with a couple of the guys at the golf club.

0:06:13 > 0:06:16Recently, a couple of good schools were mentioned,

0:06:16 > 0:06:17and if I'd been paying attention,

0:06:17 > 0:06:19I could tell you the names. I wasn't.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21I want what's best for our son.

0:06:21 > 0:06:22And I don't?

0:06:22 > 0:06:25Isobel is going to a state school.

0:06:25 > 0:06:26And that's fine, isn't it?

0:06:26 > 0:06:28You're just dismissing private education.

0:06:28 > 0:06:32Oh, I see. So you want me to make a distinction between my kids?

0:06:32 > 0:06:34No, I'm not saying that...

0:06:34 > 0:06:36Isobel's school is fine, right?

0:06:37 > 0:06:38I suppose.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40Good.

0:06:40 > 0:06:42Lunch? My shout.

0:06:46 > 0:06:49Sorry for the delay, crisis averted.

0:06:50 > 0:06:53Miss Pitman has rescheduled the appointments,

0:06:53 > 0:06:55so everything is in hand.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58There's no Renee Gossman. Didn't she come in earlier?

0:06:58 > 0:07:00Yes, but she had somewhere to go to

0:07:00 > 0:07:03and Miss Pitman very kindly offered her a lift.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06- Did they say where? - No, I'm afraid not.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08Maybe we should give her a ring.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11Is something wrong, Dr Carter?

0:07:11 > 0:07:12It's probably nothing.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17'I'm sorry, but the person you've called...'

0:07:17 > 0:07:18Voicemail.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20'Please leave your message after the tone.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23'If you want to re-record your message, press one.'

0:07:23 > 0:07:24TONE BEEPS

0:07:24 > 0:07:26Valerie. It's Dr Carter. Could you give me a ring

0:07:26 > 0:07:28as soon as you get this? Thanks.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33I'll call back later.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37What's all this about?

0:07:37 > 0:07:39Right.

0:07:39 > 0:07:42Now, I know Rob Hollins well.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45And if I'd have told him I was going to do this,

0:07:45 > 0:07:47he would have fled the scene.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49Because he's a no-nonsense, no fuss kind of copper.

0:07:49 > 0:07:50Oh, no...

0:07:50 > 0:07:55But it's all right to flee the scene when you don't want praise.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58But it's not all right to run when lives are in danger.

0:07:58 > 0:08:01And that's exactly what Rob didn't do.

0:08:01 > 0:08:02He didn't run.

0:08:02 > 0:08:06He stood his ground in a very dangerous situation the other day.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08He did more than that.

0:08:08 > 0:08:11So, I would like to commend Rob Hollins' bravery

0:08:11 > 0:08:14for tackling a dangerous armed suspect.

0:08:14 > 0:08:18And I'd also like to say that such actions are looked on favourably

0:08:18 > 0:08:20when we consider promotions.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22Not promising anything, mind.

0:08:24 > 0:08:25Speech!

0:08:27 > 0:08:29Actually...

0:08:30 > 0:08:32..I will say a few words.

0:08:37 > 0:08:38Stop the car!

0:08:38 > 0:08:39What's the emergency?

0:08:39 > 0:08:41Call of nature, sorry.

0:08:43 > 0:08:46I thought you'd seen a child run into the road or something.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49It might not be a crisis to you, but you'd feel differently

0:08:49 > 0:08:50if I drenched your upholstery.

0:08:51 > 0:08:54Thing is, my waterworks have got a mind of their own.

0:08:54 > 0:08:57Now, if I drink tea or coffee I have to go more.

0:08:57 > 0:08:59Even Huw Edwards set me off once.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02Now, what does your modern medicine say about that?

0:09:02 > 0:09:05- Just go.- Yes.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09- You're going to go in the street? - No, I'm going behind the hedge.

0:09:09 > 0:09:11I have got standards, you know.

0:09:13 > 0:09:15And the final thing I'd like to say is,

0:09:15 > 0:09:18if I'd known that this was the best way to get ahead in the force,

0:09:18 > 0:09:21I would have ditched the wife and kids years ago.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23Because it seems to me

0:09:23 > 0:09:26that they don't want bobbies who are distracted

0:09:26 > 0:09:28thinking about what the missus is cooking for tea

0:09:28 > 0:09:33or what their kids are up to. No, I'm living proof

0:09:33 > 0:09:35that they would prefer it

0:09:35 > 0:09:38if you didn't have a life outside.

0:09:38 > 0:09:39Thank you.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43APPLAUSE

0:09:45 > 0:09:46Back to work!

0:09:48 > 0:09:51I don't think they'll let you in without an appointment.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54Oh, don't worry. My son Keith does the same job as his dad -

0:09:54 > 0:09:57may he rest in peace. Someone will recognise me.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00I'll just wait for a few minutes, just in case.

0:10:08 > 0:10:10You've dropped your sweets on the floor.

0:10:13 > 0:10:17Hey! Oi!

0:10:17 > 0:10:18I want to see my Keith. I've had enough of this.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21- Who?- Keith.- Keith who? - Keith Gossman.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24- Oh, come on, we've been through... - He does work here.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27Oh, yeah? And what? I'm the Invisible Man, am I?

0:10:27 > 0:10:29Go, I'll get the dogs on you!

0:10:29 > 0:10:32Go on, last warning, right? Hop it!

0:10:37 > 0:10:38GLASS SMASHES

0:10:44 > 0:10:46Drive!

0:10:46 > 0:10:47- What?- Drive!

0:10:50 > 0:10:53Oi, stop right now!

0:10:53 > 0:10:54Stop!

0:11:01 > 0:11:04Aren't you going to turn round? We should be burning some rubber.

0:11:04 > 0:11:07Nobody is burning my rubber until I know what's going on.

0:11:07 > 0:11:08I want some answers.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10They'll catch us, you know.

0:11:10 > 0:11:12Us?! I'm not even supposed to be here!

0:11:12 > 0:11:14I was just doing you a favour.

0:11:14 > 0:11:16They'll think you're my getaway driver.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18I panicked.

0:11:18 > 0:11:21Now, tell me what you've done.

0:11:21 > 0:11:23I lobbed a bottle of pee over the boss' car.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25What?

0:11:25 > 0:11:27How did you even get that into a bottle?

0:11:27 > 0:11:28I've got a funnel.

0:11:28 > 0:11:32And I used to be a fast bowler for the Letherbridge Ladies Eleven.

0:11:32 > 0:11:36And, after some of those innings, throwing a bottle of urine is...

0:11:36 > 0:11:39We were going to visit your son. How did that turn into this?

0:11:39 > 0:11:42Me and the security guard had a difference of opinion.

0:11:42 > 0:11:44Right, I'm going back.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47No, I'm driving you directly to the police station.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50There's probably a very specific offence, throwing wee on a car.

0:11:50 > 0:11:51Do what you like.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54What about earlier at the surgery? Would you have done that to me?

0:11:54 > 0:11:58Don't be ridiculous. You make me sound unhinged.

0:11:58 > 0:12:00Right, you two. Out!

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Are you going to write minutes?

0:12:05 > 0:12:07- It's a list.- Of what?

0:12:07 > 0:12:09Private schools - hear me out - in our area,

0:12:09 > 0:12:11along with their Ofsted reports,

0:12:11 > 0:12:13estimated journey times, all that jazz.

0:12:13 > 0:12:15- I thought we'd agreed on state schools.- I know what we said,

0:12:15 > 0:12:18but the circumstances are different for Joe than they were for Isobel.

0:12:18 > 0:12:21The end result is that they're treated differently.

0:12:21 > 0:12:23But they'll both end up getting a good education.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Look, we're both partners, we're doing well.

0:12:25 > 0:12:28Why shouldn't Joe have a private education?

0:12:28 > 0:12:30It'll be a great start for him - building networks,

0:12:30 > 0:12:32building confidence, great facilities.

0:12:32 > 0:12:34Got it all worked out, haven't you?

0:12:34 > 0:12:38Yes. And, who knows, he may even learn to birdie a niblet,

0:12:38 > 0:12:40or whatever it is you do on the golf course.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42Ha-ha.

0:12:43 > 0:12:46By keeping us here, he's making us sweat.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48Columbo used to do that.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51I'm not taking the blame. I don't even know what's going on.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53It's easy. When we stopped at that tree,

0:12:53 > 0:12:55I passed some water into my bottle.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57So this was planned. Why was this planned?

0:12:57 > 0:12:59In case they wouldn't let me in.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02They wouldn't let me in last time I came.

0:13:02 > 0:13:04I had to make a protest, dear.

0:13:04 > 0:13:05Cos this is a pharmaceutical company?

0:13:05 > 0:13:08No, because they lied about my son.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10Wouldn't let him see me.

0:13:10 > 0:13:12They make him work all hours

0:13:12 > 0:13:14and they won't let me phone him.

0:13:14 > 0:13:16They worked my husband like a dog, too.

0:13:16 > 0:13:19And nobody knows what's going on in here.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21- That's awful.- Mmm.

0:13:24 > 0:13:28Right, then. Time for you to answer a few questions.

0:13:30 > 0:13:34To be honest, mate, I'm getting itchy feet.

0:13:34 > 0:13:37Because I'd much prefer to be out there nicking the villains.

0:13:37 > 0:13:39No, I wouldn't have come back to work

0:13:39 > 0:13:40if I wasn't ready for a call-out.

0:13:40 > 0:13:44So whatever comes in, you let me know, yeah? OK, bye.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49Just give him a chance to settle back in, yeah?

0:13:49 > 0:13:50You heard him.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53So what are you going to do? Feed him to the wolves.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55I'm doing it for his own good.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58- Why can't I see my Keith? - Why can't she see Keith?

0:13:58 > 0:14:00This is my interrogation.

0:14:00 > 0:14:02You answer my questions.

0:14:02 > 0:14:06Why did you throw that...device at my car?

0:14:06 > 0:14:08I didn't know it was your car. Whoops.

0:14:08 > 0:14:11What animal rights organisation do you work for?

0:14:11 > 0:14:13We don't work for an organisation.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15That's not strictly true.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18I work for The Mill health practice in Letherbridge.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21But it's not really an extremist organisation.

0:14:21 > 0:14:22I think I need to spend a penny.

0:14:22 > 0:14:26What, so you can commit another wanton act of destruction?

0:14:26 > 0:14:28If I don't go soon, I might commit it here.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30She has got bladder issues.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33Go on, then. It's down there.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36- Thank you.- Come straight back.- Yes.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39We're not really extremists.

0:14:39 > 0:14:43Extremists don't always wear balaclavas, you know.

0:14:43 > 0:14:46Protocol says I have to report this to my superiors.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49Oh, no, please don't report us.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51Look, I'll wash your car, how about that?

0:14:51 > 0:14:53Get all the wee off.

0:14:53 > 0:14:56You know she only did it because she wants to see her son.

0:14:57 > 0:15:00OK. Just this once.

0:15:01 > 0:15:02I'll get a bucket.

0:15:02 > 0:15:05Please. What is the big secret?

0:15:05 > 0:15:07Why won't you let her see her son?

0:15:07 > 0:15:09How can I?

0:15:09 > 0:15:11He doesn't work here.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26HE SIGHS

0:15:27 > 0:15:30OK, seeing as you don't think the Izzy thing is a problem...

0:15:30 > 0:15:31I never said that.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33..I'll put it in terms you do understand.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36That's how much money we've got tied up in the practice.

0:15:36 > 0:15:39This is the amount I have to pay in maintenance.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41This is how much we've racked up in debt.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44- Wow, we've turned into Greece! - Yeah. And outgoings are here.

0:15:44 > 0:15:48And that's without you succumbing to your shoe addiction.

0:15:48 > 0:15:50So you're saying we can't afford it?

0:15:50 > 0:15:51That's exactly what I'm saying.

0:15:51 > 0:15:54Look, Zara, you went to private school when you were seven.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57Why don't we review it when Joe's seven?

0:15:57 > 0:16:00We'll be back on track by then.

0:16:00 > 0:16:02- Does that sound reasonable? - I suppose so.

0:16:02 > 0:16:03In the meantime we could

0:16:03 > 0:16:06put away a few thousand a year - we could afford that -

0:16:06 > 0:16:09towards his university fees or his first deposit.

0:16:10 > 0:16:11Thanks.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16OK, I will look into the state option.

0:16:16 > 0:16:19Now, are you going to get us both another drink in?

0:16:19 > 0:16:21Assuming, that is, that they take payment in buttons.

0:16:30 > 0:16:31Oh, thanks for the help.

0:16:31 > 0:16:36I'm sorry, but I'm a martyr to chilblains if I get wet outside.

0:16:36 > 0:16:38What are you doing now?

0:16:39 > 0:16:42I've decided the stealth approach is the best answer.

0:16:42 > 0:16:45There is no point doing this, is there?

0:16:45 > 0:16:48No, you're right. I am a bit short. Would you give us a leg up?

0:16:48 > 0:16:50No, I mean, Keith doesn't work here, does he?

0:16:50 > 0:16:53You don't know what you're talking about.

0:16:53 > 0:16:55The guard told me. Why would he lie?

0:16:55 > 0:16:57Why would he... Well, have a look.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00Barriers, security guards. I mean,

0:17:00 > 0:17:01it's hardly transparent, is it?

0:17:01 > 0:17:04You've obviously got a grudge against this company.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06No. But I know there's something going on there

0:17:06 > 0:17:10and if you won't help me find out, I'll find someone who will.

0:17:10 > 0:17:12- Where are you going now?- Home.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17I don't think he's fit for work.

0:17:17 > 0:17:19Yeah, well, he's not his usual self, is he?

0:17:19 > 0:17:20He's been through a lot recently.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23Not least facing down a guy with a gun and a branding iron.

0:17:23 > 0:17:26It sounds brave. It is brave.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28The thing was, he just couldn't stop.

0:17:28 > 0:17:31- Adrenaline can take over sometimes. - He couldn't control himself.

0:17:31 > 0:17:34Is that what you're going to say in your report?

0:17:34 > 0:17:35If I say what actually happened,

0:17:35 > 0:17:37they might do something to help him.

0:17:37 > 0:17:38Or it might make things worse.

0:17:40 > 0:17:43- KNOCKING ON DOOR - Yes.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45I am sorry I'm late back.

0:17:45 > 0:17:46Where's Mrs Gossman?

0:17:46 > 0:17:48Oh, I've had it up to here with that woman.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51She has led me a wild goose chase all lunchtime.

0:17:51 > 0:17:52I haven't even opened my magazine.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55That's as maybe. It was very irresponsible of you

0:17:55 > 0:17:59to go off with a vulnerable patient. Didn't you get my voicemails?

0:17:59 > 0:18:00I'm sorry but I don't think

0:18:00 > 0:18:02I should be the one in trouble here, Dr Carter.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04Just tell me what happened.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06She wanted to see her son.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09I felt sorry for her. It was hardly a kidnapping.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12Keith Gossman died when he was six months old.

0:18:12 > 0:18:16She thinks he's 42 and doing the same job her husband did -

0:18:16 > 0:18:20same firm, same everything. But it's all invented.

0:18:20 > 0:18:22An idealisation of what he might have become.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25So she really thinks that Keith's still alive?

0:18:25 > 0:18:29Her husband died recently and it may have triggered these delusions.

0:18:29 > 0:18:31But she refuses to see the big picture.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33She doesn't ask, "Why don't I see him?"

0:18:33 > 0:18:35She just keeps making excuses.

0:18:37 > 0:18:40She says that he's all she's got.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42She told me she'd lost her anti-psychotic pills,

0:18:42 > 0:18:44so I asked her to come in.

0:18:44 > 0:18:47I feel bad for letting her go now.

0:18:47 > 0:18:49- I'll get them.- That would help.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53So these tablets will stop the delusions?

0:18:53 > 0:18:55Help her remember that Keith's gone?

0:18:55 > 0:18:57That's the plan.

0:19:06 > 0:19:08Are you all right?

0:19:09 > 0:19:13If someone gets comfort from thinking they're not alone,

0:19:13 > 0:19:15should we take that away from them?

0:19:15 > 0:19:20I think everyone should be able to hold on to their beliefs.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31"Sergeant Hollins had little regard for procedure,

0:19:31 > 0:19:33"refusing to wait for backup".

0:19:33 > 0:19:36- OK.- He went into a highly dangerous situation...

0:19:36 > 0:19:40Sometimes you have to use your instincts to save lives.

0:19:43 > 0:19:48"He displayed a reckless disregard for his own safety

0:19:48 > 0:19:50"and the safety of others."

0:19:51 > 0:19:54I just thought you should see the full picture, sir.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57Yes, well, we're happy with the outcome.

0:19:57 > 0:20:01An experienced officer behaved heroically and saved a woman's life.

0:20:01 > 0:20:02There were no fatalities.

0:20:02 > 0:20:05With respect, you weren't there.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08He used excessive force to overcome a suspect.

0:20:08 > 0:20:12The woman involved never mentioned excessive force being used.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14She wasn't in a position to judge!

0:20:15 > 0:20:17You were in the forces, weren't you?

0:20:18 > 0:20:21I dare say that got a bit hairy at times.

0:20:21 > 0:20:26But you worked together as a unit, you relied on solidarity.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28The last thing you would have wanted

0:20:28 > 0:20:30was for someone who was watching your back

0:20:30 > 0:20:31to doubt your judgment.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38Like I said, we're happy with the outcome.

0:20:38 > 0:20:40I think you need to do another draft.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47Have you come to say sorry?

0:20:47 > 0:20:49Hang on. You were the one who walked off.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Any normal person would have stopped me.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54Let's not start that again, eh?

0:20:54 > 0:20:56I don't normally cook for him,

0:20:56 > 0:20:57but it was his birthday.

0:20:57 > 0:21:00He went off to work without even looking at it.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02That's the hold they've got over him.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05Still, you've made your feelings quite clear

0:21:05 > 0:21:06the way you make about that.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12So, what did you want?

0:21:12 > 0:21:14I wondered if we could have a cup of tea together.

0:21:14 > 0:21:16I don't suppose you've brought a bit of cake?

0:21:22 > 0:21:24- KNOCK ON DOOR - Yep.

0:21:24 > 0:21:27Case notes of the shoplifter with the bloody nose.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29Interesting speech.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32Yeah. Heard any news about Sian Marden?

0:21:32 > 0:21:36Still under observation at St Phil's, as far as I know.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38St Phil's. I've spent that much time there recently.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40Next time I go, they'll charge me rent.

0:21:40 > 0:21:42You're thinking of seeing her, then?

0:21:42 > 0:21:45Maybe you should just go straight home.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52I don't think his car's been quite so sparkling before.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56- You know you can't go back there? - Mmm.

0:21:58 > 0:22:01Dr Carter asked me to give you these.

0:22:05 > 0:22:06I don't need any pills.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08He thinks you should take them.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10To stop the delusions.

0:22:11 > 0:22:14Cos Keith isn't coming home, is he?

0:22:14 > 0:22:18What do you mean? He'll be home any time for his supper.

0:22:18 > 0:22:20Look, he's got his washing on the line!

0:22:20 > 0:22:22His shirts and boxer shorts.

0:22:22 > 0:22:28Do I look like someone who wears shirts and boxer shorts? No!

0:22:28 > 0:22:31They'll help you see things the way they really are.

0:22:33 > 0:22:34Maybe...

0:22:35 > 0:22:38Maybe it's time to let Keith go.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41# And soon I'll hear

0:22:43 > 0:22:47# Old winter's song

0:22:49 > 0:22:53# But I miss you most of all

0:22:53 > 0:22:56# My darling

0:22:58 > 0:23:02# When autumn leaves

0:23:02 > 0:23:07# Start to fall. #

0:23:23 > 0:23:25Hi.

0:23:25 > 0:23:26Hello.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31I just thought I'd come and check you were OK.

0:23:31 > 0:23:34No, it's good to see you. Come in. Are you allowed?

0:23:34 > 0:23:35Who's going to stop me?

0:23:40 > 0:23:42Well, you...

0:23:43 > 0:23:45You look OK to me.

0:23:48 > 0:23:50- I'd better be...- Oh, please stay!

0:23:50 > 0:23:52It'd be lovely to talk to you.

0:23:52 > 0:23:54I'm going a bit mad in here.

0:23:54 > 0:23:57And, anyway, how many people get the chance

0:23:57 > 0:24:00to thank the person who saved their life?

0:24:00 > 0:24:01Don't, I was only...

0:24:01 > 0:24:03There's no "only" about it, Rob! That's what you did.

0:24:05 > 0:24:07I look at my wedding photos

0:24:07 > 0:24:11and I just wish I could have seen what he was going to become.

0:24:12 > 0:24:14Yeah, well, there's no way of predicting

0:24:14 > 0:24:18what's going to happen from this day to the next, is there?

0:24:18 > 0:24:21I look at my wedding photographs and...

0:24:21 > 0:24:23Well, at least my wife looks happy to be with me.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26She should have counted her blessings

0:24:26 > 0:24:27and not done the dirty on you.

0:24:27 > 0:24:29It's not really like that.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31It's... It's a long, long story.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34Everything changed after the accident.

0:24:36 > 0:24:38And the fact is, you know...

0:24:38 > 0:24:41I'm not really the hero that you think I am.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44I should have taken your call a lot earlier than I did,

0:24:44 > 0:24:47and I didn't because I was hung-over.

0:24:47 > 0:24:50I'm not surprised with what you've got going on at home.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53And when I went in, I was like a bull in a china shop.

0:24:53 > 0:24:54I was reckless.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57I really, really...

0:24:57 > 0:24:59didn't care what happened to me.

0:24:59 > 0:25:01You were brave.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05Fearless. And if you hadn't...

0:25:08 > 0:25:10You've been there for me.

0:25:10 > 0:25:14You've saved my life, twice now.

0:25:17 > 0:25:19Thank you.

0:25:19 > 0:25:20You're welcome.

0:25:24 > 0:25:25I'll see you soon.

0:25:42 > 0:25:44What are you doing?!

0:25:44 > 0:25:45Mr Palmer said he's tired of waiting.

0:25:45 > 0:25:48Roll up, roll up. The amazing forgetting woman.

0:25:48 > 0:25:50You're such a liar.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52I'm not surprised Mum left you. She was right. You're pathetic.

0:25:53 > 0:25:55I had to do it, man. I told you!

0:25:55 > 0:25:58- You were right.- What? - I said you were right.

0:25:58 > 0:26:00Sorry, it just doesn't sound like the Karen I know.

0:26:01 > 0:26:03No!
