0:00:40 > 0:00:41You all right, girls?

0:00:47 > 0:00:49SHE SIGHS

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Mrs Tembe, have you made all these for the kids?

0:00:53 > 0:00:56I just wanted to make sure that there was enough to go around.

0:00:56 > 0:00:57No, no!

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Well, that is really kind of you. Thank you.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03You down at the youth club again?

0:01:03 > 0:01:06Yeah, I'm playing basketball this afternoon. I said I'd help out.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09Oh, that's really nice. Is that Nikki going to be there?

0:01:09 > 0:01:11She might be.

0:01:11 > 0:01:12You asked her out yet?

0:01:12 > 0:01:15- Nothing to do with you.- Touchy!

0:01:15 > 0:01:17He's got it bad! He's got it bad! He's...

0:01:17 > 0:01:19Stop it. It's got nothing to do with that.

0:01:19 > 0:01:20I bet you'd like there to be.

0:01:20 > 0:01:22That's why you're down there all the time.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25Just give her one of these, look her deep in the eyes and go,

0:01:25 > 0:01:28- DEEP VOICE:- "Baby. Baby, baby, baby. I'm you're man."

0:01:28 > 0:01:31He's gone red! Look! He's gone red.

0:01:31 > 0:01:36Dr Tyler, Nurse Reid does not need an ulterior motive.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39He does what he does because he cares for the children.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42It's very charitable of you, Chris.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45Goodness comes from within, doesn't it, Mrs Tembe?

0:01:45 > 0:01:48Indeed, Dr Granger. Indeed.

0:01:53 > 0:01:54I'm not interested.

0:01:54 > 0:01:57I only asked you how often you did it.

0:01:57 > 0:01:59- A couple of times a week. - That is not enough.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01I'm doing it at least twice a day now.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04- No wonder you wear glasses. - Flossing!- What?

0:02:04 > 0:02:05He's hooked on flossing.

0:02:05 > 0:02:06What did the dentist say?

0:02:06 > 0:02:09Your teeth are all right but your gums have got to go.

0:02:09 > 0:02:12- Very funny.- So, you've finally got over your fear?

0:02:13 > 0:02:15Derrick is an excellent dentist,

0:02:15 > 0:02:19but he hasn't changed my opinion of the breed as a whole.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22Why do they have to use a syringe that is literally

0:02:22 > 0:02:25- the size of a knitting needle? - Cos it has to go round corners.

0:02:25 > 0:02:26You tell them a tooth hurts

0:02:26 > 0:02:29and the first thing they do is prod at it with a piece of mental.

0:02:29 > 0:02:32- The nurse had to hold him down. - Shut up!- Mock if you must,

0:02:32 > 0:02:35but I don't like putting myself at the mercy of people who use

0:02:35 > 0:02:37instruments of torture to pull out your teeth

0:02:37 > 0:02:39and drill massive holes.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42I mean, in a way, they are fracking in people's mouths.

0:02:44 > 0:02:46Thanks for that, mate.

0:02:49 > 0:02:51Listen, thanks for covering for me the other day.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53I know you took a couple of my patients.

0:02:53 > 0:02:55Any time, bro. Was it an emergency?

0:02:55 > 0:02:57No, just having a bad day.

0:02:57 > 0:03:01A patient made a complaint about me and then withdrew it, so...

0:03:01 > 0:03:02How are we supposed to do our jobs

0:03:02 > 0:03:05with all these Moaning Minnies breathing down our necks?

0:03:05 > 0:03:08Yeah, I know but if patients have got a genuine grievance,

0:03:08 > 0:03:11- then they've got to be able to complain, haven't they?- No.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13I've said it before and I'll say it again -

0:03:13 > 0:03:16this would be a great job if it weren't for the patients.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18Bet that's what Derrick said about you.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20HE CHUCKLES

0:03:24 > 0:03:25- Hiya.- All right?

0:03:26 > 0:03:29- I thought I'd come in early.- Oh, you must be a glutton for punishment.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31Not many people here, is there?

0:03:31 > 0:03:33Maybe not all the schools are having teacher training.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35Yeah, well, it's early yet. Oh, did you make these?

0:03:35 > 0:03:39- No, the receptionist at work did them for half-time.- Oh, wow.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42- Nikki, would you...?- Hi, Carl.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45- Oh, are they new trainers? - Yeah.- They're lovely.

0:03:49 > 0:03:51- You've got a little...- What?

0:03:51 > 0:03:55- Oh.- I'll get it. There you go. - Thank you.- It's all right.

0:03:57 > 0:04:00Prayer is a wonderful thing,

0:04:00 > 0:04:03but she needs to be cured by you, Mrs Tembe.

0:04:03 > 0:04:05What's come over him?

0:04:05 > 0:04:09- Who?- Him. Billy Graham(!) I think he's the second coming!

0:04:09 > 0:04:12Faith is very important.

0:04:12 > 0:04:16And one's belief can be a great comfort.

0:04:18 > 0:04:21But Mrs Allen needs medical intervention for her bunions,

0:04:21 > 0:04:26so, as a close and dear friend, I will speak to her.

0:04:29 > 0:04:30Thank you.

0:04:38 > 0:04:40- How's it going? - Yeah, nearly done.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42There's still a few missing.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44It's all right, there's still time.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50- Want a hand? - I'm good, thanks, man.

0:04:54 > 0:04:57- I've seen you here before. - Yeah, I help out when I can.

0:04:57 > 0:05:00- Don't you work then? - Yeah, I'm a nurse.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02Nurse?

0:05:02 > 0:05:04Oh, go on, get your wise cracks out the way now.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07You a bit...you know - one of them?

0:05:07 > 0:05:10"One of them"? No.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12Not that it matters, like.

0:05:12 > 0:05:16Ellis, could you just check if anyone else is coming?

0:05:16 > 0:05:17Laters, matron.

0:05:23 > 0:05:24I've got an e-mail here from Lucinda here.

0:05:24 > 0:05:27- She's invited us all to stay for the weekend.- Mm?

0:05:27 > 0:05:30Perhaps we could get away early, beat the evening rush.

0:05:30 > 0:05:36- What rush?- Traffic. To the Cotswolds...on Friday.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38This weekend? We can't.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40- Why not?- Church.

0:05:40 > 0:05:41We can't make a commitment one week,

0:05:41 > 0:05:44- and then conveniently forget about it the next.- But...

0:05:44 > 0:05:47We promised the vicar. See you later.

0:05:53 > 0:05:54When do you start your new job?

0:05:54 > 0:05:58Two weeks. Yeah, the hostel manager's going to stay on for a few

0:05:58 > 0:06:00more days just to show me the ropes.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03I'm looking forward to it, but I'm going to miss this place.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05Yeah, and the kids are going to miss you.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07Not once they meet Sally, they'll forget all about me.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09- Oh, she's lovely. - Well, I'll miss you.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13Thanks.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15I've got some mates who live in up Leeds.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18I'm going to go visit them soon, so maybe me and you can meet up.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20Yeah. Yeah, that'd be lovely.

0:06:20 > 0:06:23You can let me know what's been happening here.

0:06:23 > 0:06:26We could go out before, if you want.

0:06:26 > 0:06:30Lloyd and Luca can't make it. They've got other stuff going on.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32Oh, right, so I'm two players down.

0:06:34 > 0:06:36- What am I going to do? - Leave it to me.

0:06:42 > 0:06:44No way.

0:06:44 > 0:06:45Please, mate, I'll owe you one.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47I haven't got the time.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49It's an hour, that's all, man. Just one hour.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52You'll be back there before afternoon surgery starts. Promise.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54I'd have to go home and get changed.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57Don't worry about that,

0:06:57 > 0:06:59Nikki'll have something in the office you can bung on.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02Oh, I get it. You want me to make up the numbers

0:07:02 > 0:07:04so you can impress Nikki.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06I'm doing this for the kids.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08Yeah, right. You're doing it so Nikki will say,

0:07:08 > 0:07:11- HIGH VOICE: - "Oh, Chris, you're my hero!"

0:07:11 > 0:07:14Yeah...there is that.

0:07:14 > 0:07:18Look, please, mate. Please. Everyone lets these kids down, man.

0:07:18 > 0:07:19This means so much to them.

0:07:19 > 0:07:23Their little faces will light up when they see you.

0:07:23 > 0:07:24'Go on.'

0:07:34 > 0:07:36Come on, Ellis!

0:07:41 > 0:07:43Whoo!

0:07:43 > 0:07:44Great stuff.

0:08:10 > 0:08:11Beautiful!

0:08:30 > 0:08:32WHISTLE BLOWS

0:08:32 > 0:08:33CHEERING

0:08:33 > 0:08:34That's it, guys!

0:08:40 > 0:08:41Cheers for coming, bro.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43Any time you want a whooping, I'm your man.

0:08:43 > 0:08:46Yes, it's because of your age I let you win.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48I didn't want to show you up in front of the kids.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50Kids? They're men mountains, mate.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53So, have you asked her out yet?

0:08:53 > 0:08:55- No.- Why not?

0:08:55 > 0:08:58Well, because I haven't had a chance...

0:08:58 > 0:09:00and I don't want her to say "no".

0:09:00 > 0:09:03Man up. You never know, losers might turn her on.

0:09:20 > 0:09:21Chris.

0:09:27 > 0:09:31I'm really, really sorry.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34That shouldn't have happened here. Chris, I'm so, so sorry.

0:09:36 > 0:09:37Are you two...?

0:09:42 > 0:09:44- He's a kid. - Who're you calling a kid?

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Watch your mouth, man. What's it got to do with you?

0:09:49 > 0:09:50I need to talk to Nikki.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52Who do you think you are, dishing out your orders?

0:09:52 > 0:09:55Ellis, calm down. Just give us ten.

0:10:06 > 0:10:07DOOR SLAMS

0:10:07 > 0:10:10- You are way out of order. - I didn't plan this to happen.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14Are you going to tell anyone?

0:10:14 > 0:10:15How old is he?

0:10:18 > 0:10:20He's old enough to know what he's doing.

0:10:22 > 0:10:2316.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26How long's it been going on for?

0:10:27 > 0:10:29Couple of months.

0:10:30 > 0:10:31Have you slept with him?

0:10:34 > 0:10:36I really... I don't want to talk about this with you.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39Well, neither do I, but I've just witnessed something

0:10:39 > 0:10:41that I should be reporting, so I need to know.

0:10:43 > 0:10:47He's had other relationships. It wasn't like he was a virgin.

0:10:47 > 0:10:49That makes no difference.

0:10:50 > 0:10:53What are his parents going to say?

0:10:53 > 0:10:56When he's here, they think that he's in a safe environment.

0:10:56 > 0:10:59He doesn't know his parents. He's been in care since he was six.

0:11:01 > 0:11:02He's still in care?

0:11:04 > 0:11:06Nikki, what are you thinking?

0:11:06 > 0:11:08Social Services could come down on you like a tonne of bricks.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11Do you never let up? Do you know, before he met me

0:11:11 > 0:11:13he'd run away from every care home he'd been to?

0:11:13 > 0:11:16The police knew him by name.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18Our friendship, it's given him stability.

0:11:18 > 0:11:21- It's something he's never had before.- Stability?!

0:11:21 > 0:11:23What's he going to do when you move to Leeds?

0:11:23 > 0:11:25He's coming with me.

0:11:25 > 0:11:26KNOCKING

0:11:28 > 0:11:33- Hi, Elisha.- Hi. Could I give you this?- Oh, thank you.

0:11:34 > 0:11:36You were kidding, right?

0:11:36 > 0:11:38Zara, like you, I'd like to go away.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41I'd like to get away for a few days but we have other commitments.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43But Joe loves Lucinda.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46I'm sure he'll happily forego spending the weekend with

0:11:46 > 0:11:48- a couple of alcoholics. - Exaggeration.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50Two wine shops have opened since they moved there.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53Ha-ha(!) I seem to recall that the last time we were there

0:11:53 > 0:11:55you spent the entire weekend in the wine cellar.

0:11:55 > 0:11:59Look, I'm not judging, OK? Let he without sin cast the first stone.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01If we want Joe to go to Heathdean then

0:12:01 > 0:12:04we have to be regular church-goers.

0:12:04 > 0:12:07And if that's what it's going to take, so be it.

0:12:08 > 0:12:10It was your idea, sweetheart.

0:12:15 > 0:12:18Thanks, Elisha. I'll give you a shout.

0:12:24 > 0:12:27You can't let Ellis go with you.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29Get real, Chris.

0:12:29 > 0:12:33If I go without him, he's just going to run away again.

0:12:33 > 0:12:36I can't stop him from following me and I don't want to.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38This isn't about what either of you want.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40He has to stay in care until he's 18.

0:12:42 > 0:12:45Yeah, you just want him out of the way.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47- What do you mean?- You're jealous.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52- Jealous of a kid with a crush. - You're enjoying this, aren't you?

0:12:53 > 0:12:56Ego's taken a bit of a bruising, has it?

0:12:56 > 0:12:58All them extra hours you've put in here, waiting for, oh,

0:12:58 > 0:13:01the right time to ask me out and it's all come to nothing.

0:13:01 > 0:13:04I really don't think you should be allowed to work with children.

0:13:06 > 0:13:07I can't believe you're even saying that.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09I've dedicated my life to working with kids.

0:13:09 > 0:13:12Yeah, and now, you're sleeping with one of them.

0:13:12 > 0:13:14You're ten years older than him, Nikki.

0:13:14 > 0:13:17He probably sees you as a mother figure.

0:13:17 > 0:13:18HE INHALES SHARPLY

0:13:48 > 0:13:49Can I help you?

0:13:49 > 0:13:53Yes. My daughter has an appointment to see Dr Haskey. Felicity Henning.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58Your appointment is not until 5.15.

0:13:58 > 0:14:00Yes, I know, thank you. We like to be early.

0:14:01 > 0:14:04Oh. Please, take a seat.

0:14:04 > 0:14:05We've got ages yet.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09We're here now.

0:14:09 > 0:14:11And I want you to tell the doctor everything.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14- There's nothing to tell. - I know you're not well.

0:14:16 > 0:14:20- You're not coming in with me, are you?- Of course.- Mum!

0:14:20 > 0:14:23You're 14. If there's something wrong with you, I need to be told.

0:14:29 > 0:14:31Mate, I'd hardly call this Ellis a kid.

0:14:31 > 0:14:36He's still in care. That is why I've got to report it.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39Got to or WANT to?

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Why would I want to do that?

0:14:42 > 0:14:45Sour grapes.

0:14:45 > 0:14:47Me fancying Nikki has got nothing to do with this.

0:14:47 > 0:14:49That is totally irrelevant.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51So, why're you getting so worked up about it?

0:14:51 > 0:14:55She's a youth worker, Kev. She's got to work with children next week.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57I have got to do this by the book.

0:14:57 > 0:14:59Have you spoken to him about it?

0:14:59 > 0:15:02- No.- Why not?- I don't need to.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04Mate, you're about to kick him in the teeth

0:15:04 > 0:15:06and you can't even be bothered to talk to him.

0:15:06 > 0:15:10He... He doesn't understand the implications of what he's doing.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13OK, you're the one who always comes down on the side of the kids, right?

0:15:13 > 0:15:15So, why don't you explain it to him?

0:15:15 > 0:15:17I'm not the one who's a bad influence.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20Bad influence? You say she turned him around.

0:15:20 > 0:15:22Yeah, and we all know how.

0:15:22 > 0:15:25Mate, I'm not saying she hasn't overstepped the mark, but...

0:15:27 > 0:15:28It's your call.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45Ellis, can I have a word?

0:15:56 > 0:16:01This thing you've got going on with Nikki, it has got to stop.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05Do you think I take notice of you?

0:16:07 > 0:16:08Go and do one.

0:16:10 > 0:16:12Is this you trying to be a grown-up?

0:16:13 > 0:16:15Why can't you just leave us alone?

0:16:15 > 0:16:17I can't do that.

0:16:17 > 0:16:20When you work with children, you have a responsibility.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22And I'm not just talking about Nikki, me as well.

0:16:22 > 0:16:27Listen to yourself, man. Making excuses for sticking your nose in.

0:16:27 > 0:16:33- We're not hurting anyone. - Ellis, I get it. I really do, OK?

0:16:33 > 0:16:34But if this gets out,

0:16:34 > 0:16:38it is unlikely that Nikki will ever be able to work with kids again.

0:16:38 > 0:16:41But she's done nothing wrong. It was me who made the first move,

0:16:41 > 0:16:44me who kept wanting more, me who kept wanting to be with her.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47- It's not right. - What do you mean it's not right?

0:16:47 > 0:16:52It's the first time in my life anyone's ever really cared about me.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55- Ellis, you've got to understand... - I ain't got no-one except her.

0:16:55 > 0:16:59All my life, everyone thinks they know what's best for me.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02They make their decisions and then they're out the door.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04You? You're the same, man.

0:17:06 > 0:17:11- I'm sorry.- Nikki don't put me down, don't treat me like I'm dirt.

0:17:11 > 0:17:13No-one's going to break us up. No-one.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15And when I'm 16 I can do what I like.

0:17:18 > 0:17:19"When"?

0:17:21 > 0:17:22But she said...

0:17:25 > 0:17:26HE SIGHS

0:17:35 > 0:17:37You told me Ellis was 16.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39He will be in a couple of months.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41But that's not NOW, is it?!

0:17:42 > 0:17:44By law, he is a child.

0:17:46 > 0:17:48I have to report this to the police.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51What're you going on about, man?

0:17:53 > 0:17:54Ellis, you're underage.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58Nikki could go to prison for having sex with you.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00- No, you're lying. - No, he isn't.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04She tried to push me away. I forced myself on her.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06No, you didn't, Ellis! Don't even dare say that you did.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08I knew what I was doing.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10And I wanted it to happen.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15I'm the one who should've known better.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17- So, why didn't you?- Because...

0:18:18 > 0:18:19..I love him.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25I tried not to but you can't help the person you love, can you?

0:18:29 > 0:18:30Are you going to report me?

0:18:37 > 0:18:41Just end it now, and it'll stay with us.

0:18:41 > 0:18:43I am trying to give you an out here

0:18:43 > 0:18:45and it is up to you two whether you take it.

0:18:46 > 0:18:48I'm going to be outside.

0:18:56 > 0:18:58Look, after I've gone for a couple of weeks,

0:18:58 > 0:19:01you can follow me and it'll be fine, OK?

0:19:01 > 0:19:03Get real, will you? Forget it.

0:19:03 > 0:19:07Ellis, just trust me. Just let the dust settle.

0:19:07 > 0:19:08It'll be OK.

0:19:08 > 0:19:11And what if you end up in prison like he said?

0:19:11 > 0:19:13I won't.

0:19:13 > 0:19:15Me, you?

0:19:15 > 0:19:17It ain't worth it.

0:19:17 > 0:19:18Ellis?

0:19:18 > 0:19:20It was cool, you know.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23But I think I want to stay around here. I like it.

0:19:23 > 0:19:27- But you said...- I like you, but you're in my face too much.

0:19:27 > 0:19:28Get off me.

0:19:28 > 0:19:32I don't need all this hassle right now. We're over.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35- I don't believe you. - I couldn't care less.

0:19:35 > 0:19:39I'm my own man. I need my own space, and you're not in it.

0:19:39 > 0:19:40You got me now?

0:19:44 > 0:19:45DOOR SLAMS

0:19:47 > 0:19:49SHE SOBS

0:20:04 > 0:20:06So, are you guys hanging out tonight?

0:20:06 > 0:20:08- Yeah, we'll be about later.- OK.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30HE SNIFFS

0:20:45 > 0:20:48She hasn't been well for the last few weeks.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50In what way?

0:20:50 > 0:20:52Ill. Not her usual self.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54OK. Can you be more specific?

0:20:54 > 0:20:57Tired, moody, irritable.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59Well, that just sounds like your average teenager.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02And how many teenage children do you have, Dr Haskey?

0:21:04 > 0:21:06- Sorry, I didn't mean... - I know my own daughter.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08Of course you do.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11- So, Felicity. - Fliss. People call me Fliss.

0:21:11 > 0:21:14OK. Fliss, how long have you been...?

0:21:14 > 0:21:19I began to notice the symptoms two, possibly three weeks ago.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21Your mum says that you've been feeling tired.

0:21:21 > 0:21:22She's normally a very active girl,

0:21:22 > 0:21:27but recently she doesn't seem to have had any energy at all.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29- OK. Fliss... - And she's lost her appetite.

0:21:29 > 0:21:30I eat more than you.

0:21:30 > 0:21:33You're meant to at your age. You burn it off.

0:21:33 > 0:21:39Lack of appetite, lethargy, her pallor, they're worrying symptoms.

0:21:39 > 0:21:42- Symptoms? - I've done some research,

0:21:42 > 0:21:45- Oh, have you now? - And I think it might be leukaemia.

0:21:45 > 0:21:46HE SIGHS

0:21:46 > 0:21:50And where exactly did you conduct this research?

0:21:50 > 0:21:53On the internet. I wanted answers.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55Even if they were the wrong ones?

0:21:55 > 0:21:57Until you've examined my daughter, Dr Haskey,

0:21:57 > 0:21:59I don't see how you can be so dismissive.

0:21:59 > 0:22:01Look, the internet is a wonderful thing,

0:22:01 > 0:22:03perhaps my most favourite of things,

0:22:03 > 0:22:05but not when it comes to self-diagnosis.

0:22:05 > 0:22:08It can give you false reassurance or scare the wits out of you.

0:22:08 > 0:22:12In future, come to Dr Haskey, not Dr Websearch UK.

0:22:15 > 0:22:18- She's always doing this.- Fliss!

0:22:19 > 0:22:22She worries about everything. She can't help it.

0:22:22 > 0:22:25I worry about my family. It's perfectly normal.

0:22:25 > 0:22:28Let's have a look-see, see if we can find something wrong.

0:22:39 > 0:22:42Well, I wish I hadn't volunteered to come in today.

0:22:44 > 0:22:48I'll see your name's down for DJ next week.

0:22:48 > 0:22:50I won't be there.

0:22:50 > 0:22:53I've decided I'm going to leave early for Leeds.

0:22:53 > 0:22:56Nikki, I'm...I'm really sorry about what's happened.

0:22:56 > 0:22:58No, you're not. You got what you wanted.

0:23:00 > 0:23:01Now, we're all losers.

0:23:07 > 0:23:08ENGINE STARTS

0:23:16 > 0:23:18And she's not sleeping very well.

0:23:18 > 0:23:21You normally complain that I spend half the day in bed.

0:23:21 > 0:23:24Mrs Henning, can I suggest that you wait outside, please?

0:23:24 > 0:23:25Why?

0:23:25 > 0:23:28Because every time I ask Fliss a question, you answer.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30No, I don't.

0:23:30 > 0:23:31Can you back me up here, please?

0:23:33 > 0:23:34Sorry.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36Well, I'll just be...

0:23:39 > 0:23:40Thank you.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45She's really worried about you.

0:23:45 > 0:23:48- Should she be?- I'm not ill.

0:23:48 > 0:23:50You don't appear to be.

0:23:50 > 0:23:53Are there any aches or pains that you haven't told me about?

0:23:55 > 0:23:58She says that you've been moody and irritable.

0:23:58 > 0:24:00So would you be if you lived with her.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02HE CHUCKLES

0:24:03 > 0:24:04How's school?

0:24:04 > 0:24:05It's all right.

0:24:05 > 0:24:09Friends are OK? You're not being bullied or anything?

0:24:09 > 0:24:11No, I've got some good mates.

0:24:11 > 0:24:14Last weekend I took them to the Retro Picture House.

0:24:14 > 0:24:17They hated it. Walked out halfway through.

0:24:17 > 0:24:19You saw Brighton Rock?

0:24:19 > 0:24:20Twice.

0:24:20 > 0:24:22Fancy calling a villain Pinkie.

0:24:22 > 0:24:27And he was so little. His hat was bigger than his head.

0:24:27 > 0:24:28Don't you love old films?

0:24:28 > 0:24:30There's a reason they're called classics.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33I like to push my sofa right in front of the TV,

0:24:33 > 0:24:36get a big bag of pop corn. It's my silver-screen heaven.

0:24:36 > 0:24:41Right, moving on. How's home life?

0:24:41 > 0:24:42It's fine.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45Your mum said you haven't been sleeping very well.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48Is Pinkie giving you nightmares?

0:24:48 > 0:24:51Or is there something else playing on your mind?

0:24:51 > 0:24:53Something that's worrying you?

0:24:54 > 0:25:00Fliss, anything that you tell me, it stays between us.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02Don't you have to tell Mum?

0:25:02 > 0:25:06Only in exceptional circumstances. Say abuse, for example.

0:25:06 > 0:25:07It's nothing like that.

0:25:07 > 0:25:09KNOCKING

0:25:09 > 0:25:10Is everything all right?

0:25:10 > 0:25:12HE SIGHS

0:25:12 > 0:25:14Please, put her out of her misery.

0:25:14 > 0:25:17Tell her there's nothing wrong with me.

0:25:17 > 0:25:18There is nothing wrong with Fliss.

0:25:18 > 0:25:20Are you absolutely certain about that?

0:25:20 > 0:25:22As far as I can be.

0:25:22 > 0:25:24At her age, she's going through all these hormonal changes,

0:25:24 > 0:25:27which might explain some of the symptoms you're describing.

0:25:27 > 0:25:32Now, if the symptoms persist, please, come and talk to me.

0:25:32 > 0:25:35I'm here to listen and to help.

0:25:47 > 0:25:48DR HASKEY SIGHS

0:25:52 > 0:25:55Oh! By the power of Grayskull!

0:25:55 > 0:25:57Here.

0:26:02 > 0:26:05You know, I meant what I said earlier.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07This would be a great job if it wasn't for the patients.

0:26:07 > 0:26:11- Someone had a go?- No, I got this 14-year-old girl and her mother.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14Every time I ask a question to the girl, the mother answers.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17- I wanted to poke her in the eye. - Yeah, but you didn't though?

0:26:17 > 0:26:21To be fair, she did seem genuinely worried about her.

0:26:21 > 0:26:25- But you couldn't find anything. - Nope.- Paranoid parent?

0:26:25 > 0:26:28Maybe but the kid definitely had something on her mind.

0:26:28 > 0:26:31Well, unless they spit it out, mate, we're not mind readers.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33No, we aren't.

0:26:33 > 0:26:37Right, I better get going, to see Hermione. Don't want to be late.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40- Are you serious?- Yeah. You'll have to come round for dinner, mate.

0:26:40 > 0:26:42I'd like you to get to know her.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45Is there any point? Is she going to be around that long?

0:26:45 > 0:26:46What do you mean?

0:26:46 > 0:26:48You do tend to get through them, don't you.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50It wasn't that long ago you were shacked up with Jas.

0:26:50 > 0:26:53That was months ago. Anyway, I thought we'd all moved on, hadn't we?

0:27:06 > 0:27:08In Zurich, I'd be seen within five.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11A bit of Swiss-style efficiency wouldn't go amiss here.

0:27:11 > 0:27:14I've often said to Ashley that of all my gorgeous friends

0:27:14 > 0:27:16and colleagues at The Mill, you are the gorgeoustest.

0:27:16 > 0:27:18Are you in the market for a millionaire?

0:27:20 > 0:27:23Erm, well, yeah, if it gets me out of this place!

0:27:23 > 0:27:25- Hello again.- Can I talk to you?

0:27:25 > 0:27:28Yeah, of course you can. Come on round.
