0:00:25 > 0:00:27And then comes the moment,

0:00:27 > 0:00:29the step out of the plane, the leap of faith.

0:00:29 > 0:00:32The point of no return.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35But with a bit of self-control and your emotions in check,

0:00:35 > 0:00:37you'll be fine.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39You'll feel a jerk, a sense of weightlessness,

0:00:39 > 0:00:42and, for the first time ever, properly alive.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47I've wanted to do this my whole life.

0:00:47 > 0:00:48You won't be disappointed.

0:00:48 > 0:00:51All I've achieved, and finally the one thing I've always wanted to do,

0:00:51 > 0:00:55- the last tick in the box.- It'll be the best thing you ever did.

0:00:55 > 0:00:56You don't know what else I've done.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58You'll wonder why you left it so long.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01So, I'll see you all back here later.

0:01:01 > 0:01:02And don't forget the forms.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05Ooh! I wonder what he's like?

0:01:05 > 0:01:07Well, if you had been on time, you would know.

0:01:07 > 0:01:09Skydiving. Imagine!

0:01:09 > 0:01:11Yes, well, I'm finding it hard imagining.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13I'd love to do it.

0:01:13 > 0:01:14I do not think so.

0:01:14 > 0:01:15Excuse me?

0:01:15 > 0:01:18Maybe you THINK you would like to.

0:01:18 > 0:01:19You ever done it?

0:01:19 > 0:01:22No, and like you, I never will.

0:01:22 > 0:01:23Ballet dancer?

0:01:23 > 0:01:24A principal.

0:01:26 > 0:01:27OK.

0:01:27 > 0:01:32Like Nureyev, Frederick Ashton, Carlos Acosta.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34Though I was never in their league.

0:01:34 > 0:01:36There was always something stopping me.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39I'm back in the wings.

0:01:41 > 0:01:44Warming up. Final call.

0:01:46 > 0:01:47Georges was devastated.

0:01:49 > 0:01:50Georges?

0:01:50 > 0:01:52Balanchine.

0:01:53 > 0:01:57Ballets Russes. Covent Garden, je n'ai jamais oublie.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01Stage fright.

0:02:01 > 0:02:05Right. Well, let's hope you don't have that this time.

0:02:05 > 0:02:10The health-care assistant will do your blood pressure, then come back and I'll sign your form.

0:02:10 > 0:02:14In my opinion, the desire to take part in exciting sports is

0:02:14 > 0:02:18inversely proportionate to how exciting the person doing it is.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Take David Coulthard.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22David who?

0:02:22 > 0:02:24You are not a fan of Formula 1?

0:02:24 > 0:02:28Forgive me, I need to see the health care assistant.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31That's me. Do you want to go straight in? I've got a skydiver coming.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33I know. It's me.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35Oh!

0:02:35 > 0:02:36Here?

0:02:44 > 0:02:46Ah, Heston?

0:02:46 > 0:02:47Quick word in my office?

0:02:47 > 0:02:50- No.- Look, I know we left things on a sour note,

0:02:50 > 0:02:53but please, if you would just look at these projections...

0:02:53 > 0:02:55I'm going to drink my tea.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58- I've got deliveries coming round all day.- Excuse me?

0:02:58 > 0:03:00Not now.

0:03:00 > 0:03:04- Sofa, bed... I hope they don't all come at the same time.- No.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06- And you're coming round at lunch? - Yeah. I said I would.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09- Why don't you bring pizza?- Fine.

0:03:09 > 0:03:10You should have got a sofa bed.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13It's a sofa and a bed, all in one delivery.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16I thought you'd be at the new place.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19Yeah, I just came to get my laptop. Heading there now.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21You'll have to come over sometime.

0:03:21 > 0:03:23Oh, totally. We can talk colour schemes.

0:03:23 > 0:03:24Why not?

0:03:24 > 0:03:27You're more enthusiastic than my soft-furnishings consultant there.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31Are these for me?

0:03:31 > 0:03:33No...

0:03:33 > 0:03:34They're for you.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38Come here!

0:03:39 > 0:03:41Wow! I think she likes them.

0:03:41 > 0:03:42See ya.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49I don't believe it.

0:03:49 > 0:03:51NOW he gets emotional.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54No - hot flower girl. I think she fancies you.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56Say what?

0:03:56 > 0:03:58Excuse me?

0:03:58 > 0:03:59Yes?

0:03:59 > 0:04:03Mm. That's a little on the high side.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06It's borderline. Come on, let's try again.

0:04:06 > 0:04:12Just imagine. Free as a bird, arms outstretched,

0:04:12 > 0:04:15great big bear of a man strapped to your back.

0:04:15 > 0:04:16Sounds wonderful.

0:04:16 > 0:04:19Well, you're more enthusiastic than your colleague.

0:04:19 > 0:04:23- Dr Clay? - He needs s bit of excitement.

0:04:23 > 0:04:25I couldn't possibly comment.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27I'll come back and tell you how it was.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29- Then you can have a go.- Me?

0:04:29 > 0:04:34Mm! Well, there was this one time with my husband. It was terrifying.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37Now please, this is my last chance to conquer my fear.

0:04:40 > 0:04:44Oh, this reading's higher than the last one.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46Come on. One last time.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51So is it in a good cause?

0:04:51 > 0:04:56No. Unless you count my 70th birthday present to myself.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58How brilliant is that?!

0:04:59 > 0:05:01Well?

0:05:01 > 0:05:04It's high. I'm so sorry.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08Just read it.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10See what you think.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13- Not fair on the receptionists. - The receptionists?

0:05:13 > 0:05:16On top of everything else, they'd have to book people in

0:05:16 > 0:05:18for echocardiograms and liaise with St Phil's.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21- Then we'll hire someone new. - Well, that'll cost us money. It's preposterous.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24- Heston?- I'm sorry. The lady is not for turning.

0:05:24 > 0:05:27- Heston, this is Liam. - Your bursary student.

0:05:27 > 0:05:29- My dear boy. - I'm sorry, I should have called.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31No, no, not at all.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34As the inaugural recipient of the Dr Heston Carter Bursary prize,

0:05:34 > 0:05:38you are always welcome. Now, are you free for lunch?

0:05:38 > 0:05:40Lunch? Erm...

0:05:40 > 0:05:43Well, I don't usually, I mean, the thing is, I'm...

0:05:43 > 0:05:45I'm paying.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47Oh. Right. I see.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49Thank you, then.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52- Great, let me give you a guided tour.- Only if you're not too busy.- On the contrary.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58That man is impossible.

0:06:00 > 0:06:01And then comes the moment,

0:06:01 > 0:06:04the step out of the plane. the leap of faith,

0:06:04 > 0:06:07'and for the first time ever, you'll feel properly alive.'

0:06:07 > 0:06:09HE SIGHS

0:06:09 > 0:06:13All my life, somebody's always stopped me doing what I want.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17Shouldn't it be up to me if I want to take the risk?

0:06:17 > 0:06:20So my blood pressure's a bit high - so what?

0:06:20 > 0:06:26Ray's a great instructor - anyone would feel safe strapped to him.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30- How can you say no? - Because it's my job.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32Listen!

0:06:33 > 0:06:38If your blood pressure's going up just talking about it, what's it going to be like on the plane?

0:06:38 > 0:06:40You said it's borderline.

0:06:40 > 0:06:42I'm sorry.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45- Isn't it up to the doctor?- He's only going to tell you the same. Listen.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48Let's just face it.

0:06:48 > 0:06:52This is one experience that neither of us is going to have today.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55All my life, everyone's always said no.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58Yeah, but you're not letting anybody else down.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00Except myself.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03I meant it's not for charity, or anything.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08- A beautiful woman?- Yes.

0:07:08 > 0:07:09Heston?

0:07:12 > 0:07:13HE SIGHS

0:07:14 > 0:07:15Hester?

0:07:17 > 0:07:19And you're trying to seduce him.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24I'm not sure I want that image in my head.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27Well, you wouldn't go in all guns blazing.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30No, no, no. That's true.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32Stroke his ego.

0:07:34 > 0:07:35Flatter him.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38Convince him that he wants it as much as you do.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41No.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43As someone who's had heart problems yourself,

0:07:43 > 0:07:45I'd have thought you'd be all for it.

0:07:45 > 0:07:48- Well, I'm not. - May I ask why not?

0:07:48 > 0:07:51Because the world has gone mad with jargon and targets

0:07:51 > 0:07:55and machines - instead of good old-fashioned doctoring.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59We mollycoddle our patients,

0:07:59 > 0:08:05and find hundreds of ways of looking for things that aren't even there.

0:08:05 > 0:08:09You think someone has heart issues, send them to St Phil's -

0:08:09 > 0:08:11they're the people to deal with it,

0:08:11 > 0:08:14not some GP looking for a specialism.

0:08:14 > 0:08:18Are we still talking about OUR echo machine?

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Is everything OK?

0:08:22 > 0:08:26Doctor Briscoe is worried about me as someone who's had "heart issues".

0:08:27 > 0:08:29What did he say?

0:08:29 > 0:08:32Overweight and under-exercised. Change my lifestyle.

0:08:32 > 0:08:34Nothing I don't already know.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37And did he take an echo?

0:08:37 > 0:08:39He hasn't even got one.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43Didn't even think it was worth a trip to St Phil's.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45So what is the point of worrying me?

0:08:47 > 0:08:51Anyway, excuse me. I'm going out for lunch.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59So, meat or seafood?

0:09:00 > 0:09:03- Eh?- The pizza you're going to take round to Jas's later?

0:09:03 > 0:09:06What are YOU going to do about that hot florist?

0:09:06 > 0:09:10- What?- You could always wander by. Drop in.

0:09:10 > 0:09:11Why?

0:09:11 > 0:09:15Because she might give you a discount on a pot plant, why do you think?

0:09:15 > 0:09:16Cos she fancies you.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18No, she doesn't.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21Fine, she doesn't. Just sit there.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24Wait for some other gorgeous girl to show an interest.

0:09:25 > 0:09:27A bit more than TLC.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29- Yeah, Howard's going to give it to him.- Howard?

0:09:29 > 0:09:31Yeah. I had a word in his ear.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33It's going to need a tongue in Heston's.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35Yeah. That's what I told Howard.

0:09:35 > 0:09:37What would you like for lunch?

0:09:37 > 0:09:38A room?

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Lovely. Thank you. Bye.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52Mmm!

0:09:53 > 0:09:55SHE LAUGHS

0:10:14 > 0:10:15Too much mustard?

0:10:17 > 0:10:18Maybe a little too much.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23On balance, just this side of astringent.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27Shall we settle on sharp - zingy? What d'you think?

0:10:27 > 0:10:29It's very nice.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33They've got much better, recently.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36You have no idea how hard it is to get a good lunch.

0:10:38 > 0:10:44In France, there'd be a little bistro next to the surgery.

0:10:44 > 0:10:48A simple steak tartare, dauphinois, tarte tatin.

0:10:48 > 0:10:49You have all this ahead of you.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54So, what first drew you to medicine?

0:10:55 > 0:10:57A teacher.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00- From little acorns... - Well, she said I'd never make it.

0:11:00 > 0:11:03And yet here you are.

0:11:03 > 0:11:07I wanted to prove a point to her. Well, to everyone.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10Myself. People like me can do this,

0:11:10 > 0:11:13you don't have to go to a public school.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15Of course not.

0:11:15 > 0:11:17I don't think people know how hard it is.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20Well, once you qualify you'll realise it was worth it.

0:11:20 > 0:11:24No, I mean surviving, keeping going.

0:11:24 > 0:11:28You know, trying to study when you're working nights to pay for it.

0:11:28 > 0:11:33If it wasn't for you, the bursary, I probably would have packed it in.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36I've had so many people telling me I can't,

0:11:36 > 0:11:39and now finally, I've met someone who thinks I can.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42Of course you can. Change the world. Reach for the stars.

0:11:42 > 0:11:45That was my passion as a boy.

0:11:45 > 0:11:49Astronomy, not medicine. I wanted to be an astronaut.

0:11:49 > 0:11:53- An astronaut? - NASA's loss is the NHS's gain.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59Yeah, there's definitely too much mustard.

0:11:59 > 0:12:02As one's career develops, so does one's palette.

0:12:02 > 0:12:04Not that that's why one becomes a doctor,

0:12:04 > 0:12:08scales the height. It's just one of the fringe benefits.

0:12:08 > 0:12:14So - taste, savour, enjoy. The world is your oyster.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20INAUDIBLE CONVERSATION

0:12:30 > 0:12:34Who would have thought?! A racing driver.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37Of course I will sponsor you.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40Well, I think it is inspiring, a man of your age.

0:12:40 > 0:12:41Thank you very much.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44- Oh, you're back.- Yes.

0:12:44 > 0:12:49Mr Jameson has taken your suggestion of getting sponsorship for his sky dive.

0:12:49 > 0:12:53Got nearly £1,000 already and the newspapers are interested.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56And it is all because of you.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00Thank you. Thank you very much.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Your charity idea was such a good one.

0:13:06 > 0:13:09I said it was a good idea that it WASN'T for charity.

0:13:09 > 0:13:13I am NOT going to say that your blood pressure is lower than it is.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16Borderline, you said.

0:13:16 > 0:13:18I know I can do this.

0:13:18 > 0:13:22Every time I took her up, I thought we'd be shot down.

0:13:22 > 0:13:23What?

0:13:23 > 0:13:26Yet somehow, we always managed to land.

0:13:26 > 0:13:29- You were a pilot?- During the war.

0:13:29 > 0:13:33I must have strapped on a parachute 100 times. Never got to use it.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35That's a good thing, isn't it?

0:13:35 > 0:13:37Yes. but I was scared to.

0:13:37 > 0:13:44I feared that I wouldn't do the jump if it came down to it.

0:13:44 > 0:13:48- But you must have done all the training?- No. There was no time.

0:13:48 > 0:13:50"We need you up there flying, Ludo."

0:13:52 > 0:13:55And I've lived with that ever since - the doubt of it.

0:13:55 > 0:13:59I still need to know. This is my last chance.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01Why didn't you tell me this before?

0:14:01 > 0:14:03Because you'd have tried to stop me.

0:14:03 > 0:14:08Sentimental old fool, refusing to do the jump for the right reasons.

0:14:09 > 0:14:11And if I did pass out,

0:14:11 > 0:14:15the men at the skydiving company are so professional.

0:14:17 > 0:14:20I sympathise, I really do.

0:14:20 > 0:14:22And I know it seems unfair.

0:14:22 > 0:14:26What if took medical help?

0:14:26 > 0:14:28Took someone up with me?

0:14:28 > 0:14:30Well, I could check.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33Yes. Um...yeah, if you could find somebody medically trained.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35A health-care professional.

0:14:38 > 0:14:39Eh!

0:14:39 > 0:14:41Mrs Hollins is coming with me.

0:14:41 > 0:14:43No, I'm not.

0:14:43 > 0:14:45- Why not?- What?

0:14:45 > 0:14:48You said it was something that you always wanted to do.

0:14:48 > 0:14:52- That you needed some excitement in your life.- Oh, please?

0:14:52 > 0:14:55He has raced with Graham Hill.

0:15:16 > 0:15:18KNOCK ON DOOR

0:15:18 > 0:15:20Ha, ha, ha!

0:15:21 > 0:15:22You didn't!

0:15:22 > 0:15:24I most certainly did.

0:15:24 > 0:15:25And?

0:15:25 > 0:15:27And I got a pot plant for Jas.

0:15:27 > 0:15:31- You lost your nerve? - Like that would ever happen!

0:15:31 > 0:15:33What did you say, then?

0:15:33 > 0:15:36I'd like one of your finest plants in a pot, please.

0:15:36 > 0:15:37You're joking.

0:15:37 > 0:15:40What? I think it's an excellent ice breaker.

0:15:40 > 0:15:44It's probably for the best. She was way out of your league, anyway.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46D'you want me to take over?

0:15:46 > 0:15:48- Sure.- Was there a card?

0:15:50 > 0:15:51No card.

0:16:01 > 0:16:05Why would I want to go up in an plane with a patient?

0:16:05 > 0:16:09Because I'm not qualified. But if he had a doctor with him...

0:16:09 > 0:16:12See, at first, I thought that his blood pressures were too high.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15But they're just borderline, right? And if he really wants to do it...

0:16:15 > 0:16:19And he's...he's raised £1,000 for charity.

0:16:19 > 0:16:20I would do it.

0:16:20 > 0:16:24- No, you wouldn't.- Yeah, I would. Throw myself out of a plane.

0:16:24 > 0:16:27Did you know that he used to be a fighter pilot?

0:16:27 > 0:16:28- Really?- Yeah, in the war.

0:16:28 > 0:16:33And a racing driver with Graham Hill.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36And a ballet dancer. Don't forget the ballet dancer.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39- Mm?- Ludo was also a famous ballet dancer.

0:16:39 > 0:16:42And he was in the war, so...

0:16:42 > 0:16:45That would make him...how old?

0:16:53 > 0:16:55Heston.

0:16:57 > 0:16:59- Nice lunch?- Splendid, thank you.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02Liam seems like a nice chap.

0:17:02 > 0:17:05He'll make a first-class doctor.

0:17:05 > 0:17:07With the right guidance.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09Which is exactly what I intend to give him.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11And I'm sure you will.

0:17:12 > 0:17:16That's why, with your permission, I'd like to publicise

0:17:16 > 0:17:21the bursary so our patients can know just what kind of man you are.

0:17:22 > 0:17:25Well, I'm sure any of us would have done exactly the same.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28Yes, but we didn't. YOU did.

0:17:29 > 0:17:35So maybe we can't agree on the echo, but at least, with the bursary,

0:17:35 > 0:17:39if it's all right with you, we can bathe in your reflected glory.

0:17:45 > 0:17:47So, getting back to the echo,

0:17:47 > 0:17:50if you could just read this...

0:17:51 > 0:17:56Liam is a fine young man who comes from nothing

0:17:56 > 0:17:58and dreams of becoming a doctor -

0:17:58 > 0:18:01that is where any extra money we have should be spent.

0:18:01 > 0:18:05That is where I'm spending MY money. NOT on your machine.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10You can't just whip it out.

0:18:10 > 0:18:13You've got to make him think it's his idea.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15We'll have to come up with something else.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17Heston's worried about the money.

0:18:17 > 0:18:19- Yes. - Maybe what it's going to cost

0:18:19 > 0:18:22is something he hasn't thought about before.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28Right! We'll see you there.

0:18:28 > 0:18:30- I beg your pardon? - It's all arranged.

0:18:30 > 0:18:33Dr Clay is going to do it. He's already called the airfield.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35Right.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38- Happy?- Shocked. I thought you were going to say no.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40- Like everybody else?- Yes.

0:18:40 > 0:18:44I'm not everybody. So...we'll see you there.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46Absolutely.

0:18:49 > 0:18:51He used to be a pilot, you know.

0:18:51 > 0:18:54Mm. So he'll have nothing to worry about, will he?

0:18:58 > 0:19:01And that's meant to make up for the flowers?

0:19:01 > 0:19:04- I didn't get you flowers. - No, but you let me think you had.

0:19:04 > 0:19:06Then I read the card and found out they're from my mum.

0:19:06 > 0:19:08Why would I get you flowers?

0:19:08 > 0:19:10I don't know. Because I've just moved out?

0:19:10 > 0:19:12It's no big deal.

0:19:12 > 0:19:15Before, you didn't want me to go. Is this your way of punishing me?

0:19:15 > 0:19:18No. it's just not a big deal.

0:19:25 > 0:19:27It's from Al.

0:19:27 > 0:19:30He went to chat up the florist and he came back with that. Loser.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32I got you this.

0:19:45 > 0:19:46SHARP KNOCKING

0:19:46 > 0:19:48Go away.

0:19:50 > 0:19:54How was lunch? I hope you didn't overindulge.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56Starter OR dessert. Never both.

0:19:56 > 0:20:01Thank you for your concern, Dr Carmichael. I walked all the way there and all the way back.

0:20:01 > 0:20:02You can give me a gold star.

0:20:02 > 0:20:06Look. You're right to be annoyed. We've been short-sighted.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09Until I saw Liam, I'd forgotten all about your bursary.

0:20:09 > 0:20:12Because all you think about is your machine.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14When the partners heard you were starting a bursary,

0:20:14 > 0:20:16we put it down to vanity.

0:20:18 > 0:20:19I beg your pardon?

0:20:19 > 0:20:22But we were wrong.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25I see now that what you're doing is monumental.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28Supporting student after student through medical school.

0:20:28 > 0:20:32At a cost to you of...thousands, tens of thousands of pounds?

0:20:32 > 0:20:36- Oh, no, it's a fixed amount.- You say that now, but I saw the way that Liam was looking at you.

0:20:36 > 0:20:38You're a hero to him. A father figure.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41How are you going to say no to him when he asks for more?

0:20:41 > 0:20:45A textbook here, a stethoscope there, a month's rent.

0:20:46 > 0:20:49Once the harness is tight,

0:20:49 > 0:20:51we attach ourselves together. And leave everything to me.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54I'll go and get the pilot and we'll go.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57SQUEALING

0:20:59 > 0:21:01I can feel it already -

0:21:01 > 0:21:05the jerk, the weightlessness...

0:21:05 > 0:21:09Oh! Nothing like the sense that you're plunging to your death to feel alive.

0:21:09 > 0:21:13- How high do we go?- 10,000 feet, apparently.

0:21:13 > 0:21:1610,000 feet!

0:21:16 > 0:21:19It's not just heights with me, I'm a terrible flier at the best of times.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22- Did I tell you what happened with me and Rob?- No.

0:21:22 > 0:21:27We were flying over the Alps and we hit turbulence,

0:21:27 > 0:21:30and just, went down like a stone.

0:21:30 > 0:21:32I thought that I was going to die.

0:21:32 > 0:21:35So I was begging Rob to knock me out

0:21:35 > 0:21:37so I wouldn't see the ground coming up at me.

0:21:37 > 0:21:41And here YOU are, waiting to see the ground come up at you.

0:21:41 > 0:21:42All set?

0:21:42 > 0:21:44- I can't do it.- Course you can.

0:21:44 > 0:21:46I feel sick.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49This is what you've always wanted. The best thing you'll ever do.

0:21:49 > 0:21:53The leap of faith, the weightlessness, feeling alive?

0:21:53 > 0:21:57- We can't give you your money back. - I know.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00- What about the money you've raised for charity?- £1,000, wasn't it?

0:22:00 > 0:22:03Well, actually, it was £100.

0:22:03 > 0:22:07Do you lie about everything? You weren't a racing car driver.

0:22:07 > 0:22:08Ballet dancer.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10Fighter pilot.

0:22:10 > 0:22:13- A fighter pilot? - He's 15 years too young.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16- Yeah...and to have danced with Balanchine.- I could have driven with Graham Hill.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19- Yeah, but you didn't, did you? - And I WAS a dancer,

0:22:19 > 0:22:22if it hadn't have been for the... the stage fright.

0:22:22 > 0:22:25Stage fright? It's always something, isn't it?

0:22:25 > 0:22:28Well, this time, you're going to do it.

0:22:28 > 0:22:29What? I'm not going to do it.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32I'll give them the money back. I'm not doing it.

0:22:32 > 0:22:33So no-one's going to jump with me?

0:22:35 > 0:22:38£100, you say? Well, I'd give that.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41Forget it. I'm not giving him anything.

0:22:41 > 0:22:44I don't think that's what the doctor is suggesting.

0:22:44 > 0:22:48And I wasn't lying about being scared about heights, either.

0:22:50 > 0:22:54It's too late for me, but there's nothing stopping you.

0:22:55 > 0:22:56No.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00No!

0:23:00 > 0:23:02No. No.

0:23:02 > 0:23:04No.

0:23:04 > 0:23:06So I didn't give her a present, so what?

0:23:06 > 0:23:08And then I told her about you and the florist.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10You told her WHAT about me and the florist?

0:23:10 > 0:23:12That she liked you.

0:23:12 > 0:23:13Why would you do that?

0:23:13 > 0:23:16It's not every day you get someone like that interested, mate.

0:23:16 > 0:23:19- You said all this to Jas? - Yeah, why wouldn't I?

0:23:19 > 0:23:23She's moving out. She's thinking about all the things that have happened

0:23:23 > 0:23:26while she's been living with you. Her job problems, her fiance,

0:23:26 > 0:23:29not to mention helping you out with all that stuff between you

0:23:29 > 0:23:32and your dad, but oh, no, all this means nothing to you.

0:23:32 > 0:23:35Going on a date with a bimbo is more important.

0:23:35 > 0:23:37- Seriously?- Yes.

0:23:37 > 0:23:41I thought you choked when you went to the florists?

0:23:41 > 0:23:42Hold on!

0:23:46 > 0:23:49- Well, that's that, then. - Looks like it.

0:23:50 > 0:23:52How about Liam?

0:23:53 > 0:23:56- Sorry?- Doing the admin for the echo machine.

0:23:56 > 0:23:58It would be valuable experience.

0:23:58 > 0:24:02Well...we'd have to pay him.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05Yes, I suppose we would.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08Well, I think that's a good idea.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10If it's all right with the rest of the partners.

0:24:10 > 0:24:12- Fine by me.- Me, too.

0:24:12 > 0:24:15Right. Good night.

0:24:15 > 0:24:16Good night.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21- God, we're good.- Yes, we are!

0:24:34 > 0:24:36We're about to take off.

0:24:36 > 0:24:37I can't.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40- I can't hear you.- I can't do it.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43- 30 seconds.- I'm not doing it.

0:24:43 > 0:24:46- Shall I tell the pilot to stop? - Yeah, tell him.

0:24:46 > 0:24:49- And what will you tell everyone? - I'll lie.

0:24:49 > 0:24:52Yeah, but YOU'LL know. This isn't for anyone else.

0:24:52 > 0:24:57It's for you. You've got 20 seconds to make your mind up.

0:24:57 > 0:25:01# Take me home, take me home

0:25:01 > 0:25:04# I know another place to be

0:25:04 > 0:25:09#Take me home, take me home

0:25:09 > 0:25:12# You deserve a girl like me

0:25:12 > 0:25:16# Come on, I know somewhere

0:25:16 > 0:25:20# You can unwind

0:25:20 > 0:25:24# We can just disappear

0:25:24 > 0:25:27# Now's the time

0:25:27 > 0:25:28TEXT MESSAGE

0:25:28 > 0:25:33# Take me home, take me home

0:25:33 > 0:25:36# Only fair I get my way

0:25:36 > 0:25:40# Take me home, take me home

0:25:40 > 0:25:43# Oh, it's going to happen anyway

0:25:43 > 0:25:47# I know what's good for you

0:25:47 > 0:25:51# Don't pass me by

0:25:51 > 0:25:58# I will look after you you'll be fine... #

0:26:00 > 0:26:02- How are you doing?- Yeah. Not bad.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06Up and down.

0:26:06 > 0:26:10SHE SCREAMS

0:26:11 > 0:26:15# I'm in heaven, I'll show you heaven

0:26:19 > 0:26:21# Take me home, take me home

0:26:21 > 0:26:23SHE SCREAMS

0:26:23 > 0:26:25# I will show you where to walk... #

0:26:25 > 0:26:27Oh, yeah!

0:26:30 > 0:26:32Didn't I say I had a beautiful wife?

0:26:32 > 0:26:36You're Walter's WIFE, not his servant.

0:26:36 > 0:26:41All this interest in Mim, I'll start believing that you...fancy her.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44I'm surprised at you, Mrs Tembe, of all people.

0:26:44 > 0:26:46Oh, my goodness! No!

0:26:46 > 0:26:48What the hell is going on?!

0:26:48 > 0:26:51There was a mix-up. We're dealing with it. Clinic's running fine.
