0:00:30 > 0:00:33'Tuez les cafards! Kill the cockroaches! Stamp on them.'

0:00:35 > 0:00:38'Do your work! They don't deserve to live.

0:00:38 > 0:00:43'Kill the cockroaches! They are poison - they don't deserve to live.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45'Chop them up. Exterminate them!'

0:00:45 > 0:00:48Thomas! Thomas!

0:00:53 > 0:00:55What time is it?

0:01:02 > 0:01:03About five.

0:01:06 > 0:01:07It's three o'clock!

0:01:11 > 0:01:12Oh, Thomas.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17Sorry.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20You can't keep doing this.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23Maybe you should go back to the spare room for a bit.

0:01:33 > 0:01:38Morning. Now could you give this to Dr Donohoe?

0:01:38 > 0:01:41I did not get a chance to put it in with her notes.

0:01:41 > 0:01:46- Is she in already?- Yes, she is very keen to get on with her work.

0:01:46 > 0:01:48Well, that is the eagerness of youth.

0:01:48 > 0:01:50She's just what this practice needs.

0:01:50 > 0:01:54It is good to have someone here who always has a smile on their face.

0:01:54 > 0:01:57- You talking about me again? - No, we were just saying how refreshing it is to have

0:01:57 > 0:01:59Niamh around the place.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01Morning all. I was wondering if I could get anyone a coffee?

0:02:01 > 0:02:05I'm just about to make myself one.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07Sorry, did I miss something?

0:02:07 > 0:02:11Oh! No, that is very kind of you.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14No, I have already had my morning beverage.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16You need to fill out that form.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19- I'd love one. Thank you. - Al?- Got one.

0:02:19 > 0:02:22You still on for lunch next week, Niamh?

0:02:22 > 0:02:25- So long as it's a long one. - Slacking already, eh, Mrs Tembe?

0:02:25 > 0:02:30Letherbridge has some decent restaurants. But there's always the dubious delights of the Icon Bar.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33- Bring it on. I'm ready for anything. - That's not how it looked yesterday.

0:02:33 > 0:02:37- Sorry?- Molluscum contagiosum.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39Oh, that!

0:02:39 > 0:02:41I'm so glad you were there to bail me out.

0:02:41 > 0:02:45Al saved my life yesterday. Thanks, Al. I owe you one.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17Thomas!

0:03:17 > 0:03:19HORN BLARES

0:03:32 > 0:03:34- Hi. Breast-feeding training. - Oh, yes.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37- Sign in, please.- You're keen.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39- You're late.- Sign me in, will you?

0:03:39 > 0:03:41Hang on a minute - do I really need to be here?

0:03:41 > 0:03:44Can't you just report back? I've got a tonne of stuff to do at the Mill.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46What is it with you men?

0:03:46 > 0:03:51You spend 99% of your time either fantasising about or fumbling with

0:03:51 > 0:03:54women's breasts. So, what - it makes you think you know

0:03:54 > 0:03:57- everything there is to know about breast-feeding?- I never fumble.

0:03:57 > 0:04:00Take it from me, as far as women are concerned,

0:04:00 > 0:04:03you can never have too much information.

0:04:13 > 0:04:17Thomas? Are you OK?

0:04:17 > 0:04:19I'm fine.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22You don't look fine.

0:04:22 > 0:04:24I decided to take the day off work.

0:04:24 > 0:04:25They owe me leave.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27Yeah, I know but...

0:04:27 > 0:04:28I just need some rest.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32It's getting worse, isn't it?

0:04:33 > 0:04:35- What?- Your eyes.

0:04:39 > 0:04:41You need to go to the doctor's.

0:04:41 > 0:04:45No. I'll be OK.

0:04:45 > 0:04:46For goodness' sake.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49How long are you going to keep this up?

0:04:49 > 0:04:50I'm trying to help.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05Stop it! Stop!

0:05:05 > 0:05:07What? What is it?

0:05:08 > 0:05:09Nothing.

0:05:10 > 0:05:14I've had enough of this. I'm going to make you an appointment,

0:05:14 > 0:05:16whether you like it or not.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29Mind if I join you?

0:05:29 > 0:05:30Not at all. Take a seat.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33La Toya Jeffreys. Parkside Surgery in Kingsvale.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35Kevin Tyler, Mill Health Centre, Selly Heath and this is...

0:05:35 > 0:05:39- Dr Carmichael. I'm the breast-feeding co-ordinator for our surgery.- Likewise.

0:05:39 > 0:05:42Good on you for coming. I couldn't get any of our guys along.

0:05:42 > 0:05:43I'm just glad for the opportunity.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46I feel that where women are concerned, you can

0:05:46 > 0:05:48never have too much information.

0:05:48 > 0:05:52So what's your personal experience of breast-feeding, Kevin?

0:05:52 > 0:05:55- Sorry?- That's what we're meant to be discussing, right?

0:05:55 > 0:05:59Oh, right! Yeah, of course. Well, pretty limited, obviously.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04Well, most of the mums I see are either OK with it or I refer them.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07I think they mean a little bit closer to home than that.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10Like have you ever discussed breast feeding with your mother?

0:06:10 > 0:06:12No, I can't say I have.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15How old are you - 35, 36?

0:06:15 > 0:06:1631.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18Let's see, 30 years ago that would be...

0:06:18 > 0:06:21- "Breast is best." - Good start.- I am here, you know.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24And what's this got to do with how I deal with my patients?

0:06:24 > 0:06:27Because your mother's experience and attitude towards breast-feeding

0:06:27 > 0:06:30can have a subtle influence on how you deal with your patients.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33It can affect the course of action you prescribe for them.

0:06:33 > 0:06:34My mum's got enough on her plate.

0:06:34 > 0:06:36The last thing I want to do is make her feel guilty

0:06:36 > 0:06:40because she either did or didn't breast-feed me as a baby.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43And, no, I don't have any hang-ups about it.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52You should have come in to see me sooner.

0:06:52 > 0:06:57- Or at the very least consulted an optician when your eyesight started causing problems.- Is it serious?

0:06:57 > 0:06:59It's too early to tell.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01We'll have to carry out some tests.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03I've been trying to get him to come in for years.

0:07:03 > 0:07:05He doesn't like doctors.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09- Thomas? - I prefer to look after myself.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13We've left it too late, haven't we?

0:07:13 > 0:07:15Not necessarily.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18Are there any other symptoms that I should be aware of?

0:07:18 > 0:07:20If you don't tell him, I will.

0:07:21 > 0:07:25- Headaches, itching.- He sees things.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27Brenda!

0:07:27 > 0:07:29I've seen the look on your face, Thomas.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31And it's getting worse.

0:07:31 > 0:07:34Is this true? You're having hallucinations?

0:07:34 > 0:07:35It's nothing.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42This is what's really bothering me.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52What is the matter with you?

0:07:52 > 0:07:54You're behaving like a two-year-old.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56Don't tell me you're embarrassed.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59It's Mammary Central in here and I know all that stuff.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02So you already know everything there is to know about breast-feeding?

0:08:02 > 0:08:04- I didn't say that.- So the next time Mrs Tembe has some poor woman

0:08:04 > 0:08:07in tears on the phone saying her baby cries every time

0:08:07 > 0:08:12- she tries to breast-feed, she should point her in your direction? - I'm not saying I'm an expert.- No?

0:08:12 > 0:08:15I just don't know why I have to spend the entire day on it.

0:08:15 > 0:08:18Stop being such a wuss.

0:08:18 > 0:08:22As the only man in the room, you are seriously letting the side down.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25So man up, Tyler, and get back on the horse.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32I'll send off your blood samples straightaway.

0:08:32 > 0:08:36And in the meantime, I'll prescribe some cream to help with your arms.

0:08:36 > 0:08:40I'd also like to organise an appointment with an ophthalmologist as soon as possible.

0:08:40 > 0:08:41- What do you think it is?- Brenda.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44It's OK. It's too early to tell really. One more question -

0:08:44 > 0:08:48is there a history of eye problems in your family?

0:08:48 > 0:08:50I have no family.

0:08:50 > 0:08:55- You mean you're not in contact with them?- My family are all dead.- Right.

0:08:55 > 0:09:00- But as far as you know there's no glaucoma, no...- Je n'ai pas.. No. Not as far as I know.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03He's trying to help.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05- Can we go now?- Yes, of course.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08I'll contact you as soon as I have the initial test results.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10Good. Thank you.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14I'm sorry about this.

0:09:14 > 0:09:15No problem.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18He's got a lot to think about at the moment.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24Do you think you can squeeze Mr Georgeson in before lunch?

0:09:24 > 0:09:26He says he is in a lot of pain and discomfort.

0:09:26 > 0:09:30- Sure, send him my way when he comes in.- Thank you. You are a godsend.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32Mr Georgeson, you are in luck.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34Dr Donohoe can fit you in.

0:09:36 > 0:09:37Um, I couldn't help overhearing.

0:09:37 > 0:09:40- Yes?- Mr Georgeson?- What about him?

0:09:40 > 0:09:41He's tried it on with all of us.

0:09:41 > 0:09:44He looks up illnesses on the internet then tries to outwit us

0:09:44 > 0:09:45with his symptoms.

0:09:45 > 0:09:47I've heard about patients like that.

0:09:47 > 0:09:48Every practice has got one.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51Thanks for the heads-up.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54You know that's the kind of thing I'd love to find out

0:09:54 > 0:09:56about over lunch today.

0:09:56 > 0:09:58Lunch? Nice try.

0:09:58 > 0:10:01Come on, you can introduce me to the famous Icon Bar

0:10:01 > 0:10:04and I can pick your brains over the hors d'oeuvres.

0:10:04 > 0:10:08No can do - there's some computer coding that needs my instant attention.

0:10:08 > 0:10:12Surely you'd rather have lunch with me than some cold-hearted computer?

0:10:13 > 0:10:15- OK, fine.- Yes!

0:10:15 > 0:10:18But I'll tell you now, the Icon is nothing to write home about.

0:10:18 > 0:10:20The only reason we go there is because it's close.

0:10:20 > 0:10:21That'll do me.

0:10:27 > 0:10:29I could try going back to work.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32Though it won't be easy at my age, but if Angela's still in HR...

0:10:37 > 0:10:38Thomas?

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Let's just see what Dr Granger says.

0:10:41 > 0:10:42What is it?

0:10:46 > 0:10:50I think I'd prefer to catch the bus. Let's just get home.

0:10:53 > 0:10:57My breasts are killing me. I haven't slept in weeks.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00I've tried everything. I don't think I can go on.

0:11:00 > 0:11:04- I understand.- No, you don't. You've never had to breast-feed.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06No, but I can empathise.

0:11:06 > 0:11:11What? You've got no idea. You're just like my husband.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14Aaah!

0:11:16 > 0:11:18Calm down. I'm here for you.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20Just tell me what to do.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23OK, have you worked out a timetable for feeding your baby?

0:11:23 > 0:11:27- Yes. Done that.- How about looking into how it's latching on to you?

0:11:27 > 0:11:29Tried that.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32Perhaps your diet is affecting the milk. Sometimes...

0:11:32 > 0:11:35- I've only eaten what the health visitor's told me to. - This is ridiculous.

0:11:35 > 0:11:39- I'm not going to have a patient who's tried it all!- Why not? I did.

0:11:39 > 0:11:40Temper, temper, Doctor.

0:11:40 > 0:11:44I'm going out of my mind here. If you can't help me,

0:11:44 > 0:11:46find me someone who can.

0:11:46 > 0:11:49- What?- Come on, Tyler.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51Let's swap. I'll show you how it's done.

0:11:54 > 0:11:56Omelette OK for lunch?

0:11:56 > 0:11:59- I'm not hungry.- You've got to eat.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03At least we're doing something now.

0:12:04 > 0:12:07Maybe it's not as bad we think.

0:12:07 > 0:12:09They can do all sorts nowadays.

0:12:10 > 0:12:13'Kill the cockroaches. They don't deserve to live.

0:12:13 > 0:12:18'Do your work. Kill the cockroaches. They don't deserve to live.

0:12:18 > 0:12:23'Chop them up, crush them, exterminate them!'

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Don't be scared, Thomas.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27I'm not scared.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29Don't worry.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32Whatever Dr Granger finds, I'll be here.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36You don't know how bad it is yet.

0:12:36 > 0:12:40As long as he stops you going frantic in the middle of the night, that's fine by me.

0:12:47 > 0:12:50PHONE RINGS

0:12:50 > 0:12:52Thomas?

0:13:00 > 0:13:01Hello?

0:13:03 > 0:13:04Yes, he's right here.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06It's Dr Granger for you.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10- I did warn you it wasn't up to much.- I'm not fussy.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16Wow! You eat faster than I do.

0:13:16 > 0:13:18In my house it was every man - or woman - for themselves.

0:13:18 > 0:13:21Only those who finished first got seconds.

0:13:21 > 0:13:26- Big family?- Eight of us.- Eight.

0:13:26 > 0:13:27I don't have that excuse.

0:13:27 > 0:13:30No scrabbling round for seconds in your house, then?

0:13:30 > 0:13:32- Far from it.- You missed out there.

0:13:33 > 0:13:37So have you got yourself a whole GP's surgery worth of doctors

0:13:37 > 0:13:38sat round the dinner table?

0:13:38 > 0:13:40I'm the only one to take the Hippocratic oath so far.

0:13:40 > 0:13:44- You didn't follow the family tradition?- No. Definitely not.

0:13:44 > 0:13:49So what is it? Let me guess, are they like the Ireland's equivalent of the Von Trapp family singers?

0:13:49 > 0:13:52Travel around with their close harmonies. You're the Nolans!

0:13:52 > 0:13:55- If only.- Not even close?

0:13:55 > 0:13:57Well, my mum's a would-be writer and my brother once failed

0:13:57 > 0:14:00an audition for a Michael Flatley tribute group, so...

0:14:00 > 0:14:02And what about your dad?

0:14:02 > 0:14:03My dad?

0:14:04 > 0:14:06Fun-loving criminal.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10- No way.- Yep.

0:14:10 > 0:14:13- How did he get into that?- What?

0:14:13 > 0:14:16The band - the Fun Lovin' Criminals.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18Oh, he's not in a band. He's inside.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24- Like...like INSIDE inside?- Yep.

0:14:27 > 0:14:29I've got to ask, what did he do?

0:14:29 > 0:14:31It's fine - he's a thief.

0:14:34 > 0:14:38Well, I'm sure we've all done our share of petty pilfering, haven't we?

0:14:38 > 0:14:40This wasn't petty.

0:14:40 > 0:14:43And I should know, because I'm the one who shopped him.

0:14:47 > 0:14:49Sorry to call you back in

0:14:49 > 0:14:52but as I said before, there was an anomaly with one of your samples.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54So I'd like to take another.

0:14:54 > 0:14:56Of course.

0:14:56 > 0:14:57- Is that all?- No.

0:14:57 > 0:15:01I'd like to ask your husband a few more questions, if I may.

0:15:01 > 0:15:03I presume that you're from Africa?

0:15:03 > 0:15:04Why?

0:15:04 > 0:15:07Just something I'm checking out.

0:15:07 > 0:15:08I lived there for a short while.

0:15:08 > 0:15:11My parents moved here when I was very young.

0:15:11 > 0:15:13- OK, and you were born in...?- Uganda.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17Did you happen to live near a river?

0:15:18 > 0:15:21I can't remember. It was a very long time ago.

0:15:21 > 0:15:24- Of course. - What's that got to do with now?

0:15:24 > 0:15:28I'll need a specialist to confirm it but it seems to me

0:15:28 > 0:15:31that you could have some of the symptoms of river blindness.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33What?

0:15:33 > 0:15:36- I'm going blind.- Not necessarily.

0:15:36 > 0:15:37You know about this?

0:15:37 > 0:15:38I suspected it.

0:15:38 > 0:15:40You didn't tell me!

0:15:40 > 0:15:43I can't confirm that it is river blindness yet.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45Please, will someone tell me what that is?

0:15:45 > 0:15:49River blindness comes from a parasite that is particularly prevalent in Africa.

0:15:49 > 0:15:53- But he hasn't been there since he was a child. - It can take many years to manifest.

0:15:53 > 0:15:56But it causes some of the symptoms that your husband's been displaying.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59- Can it be passed on? Will I get it? - It's unlikely but we'll do tests.

0:15:59 > 0:16:02What happens if we both go blind? Who will look after us?

0:16:02 > 0:16:03I could be wrong about this.

0:16:03 > 0:16:07Yes! Yes, especially as he's never even been back.

0:16:07 > 0:16:09It was an awfully long time ago, wasn't it?

0:16:09 > 0:16:13No. I think Dr Granger may be right.

0:16:15 > 0:16:20I left Africa in 1995, not when I was a child.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28He fancied himself as a bit of a Lovejoy

0:16:28 > 0:16:31- but it got more serious than that. - Yes?

0:16:31 > 0:16:35Forging documents, handling stolen goods. I couldn't turn a blind eye.

0:16:35 > 0:16:39Especially when he started dragging my mum and the others into it.

0:16:39 > 0:16:42Must have taken some real courage to shop your own dad.

0:16:42 > 0:16:45Yeah. Anyway, water under the bridge.

0:16:45 > 0:16:49The rest of the family must be really grateful they didn't, you know, go down with him.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51You'd think, wouldn't you?

0:16:52 > 0:16:54They're not happy with you?

0:16:54 > 0:16:56Haven't spoken to me since the trial.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59They didn't like me airing their dirty Irish linen in public.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04How about you? Any skeletons in your closet?

0:17:05 > 0:17:08Look at me - does it look like I own a closet?

0:17:10 > 0:17:12Why did you lie?

0:17:12 > 0:17:14I wasn't in Uganda.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16I was in Rwanda.

0:17:17 > 0:17:18Rwanda?

0:17:19 > 0:17:24I was born in Rwanda. I grew up there.

0:17:24 > 0:17:3020 years ago, in April 1994,

0:17:30 > 0:17:32the killings started.

0:17:32 > 0:17:36I remember. The whole country went mad.

0:17:36 > 0:17:40They were not mad, they were just like you and me.

0:17:42 > 0:17:45- Were you one of them?- No. - Did you kill people?- No.

0:17:45 > 0:17:49- Oh, my God. You did, didn't you! - No. Believe me.- Yeah, right.

0:17:49 > 0:17:50I was born a Tutsi.

0:17:52 > 0:17:56The Hutu extremists - they called us cockroaches. "Tuez les cafards!"

0:17:56 > 0:18:00We had to be wiped out. Exterminated.

0:18:00 > 0:18:02They spread their message of hate through the radio.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04And in Rwanda, the radio was God.

0:18:07 > 0:18:10So God told them to go out and kill Tutsis.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15I was a hospital orderly in Kigali.

0:18:17 > 0:18:18On the day the call came...

0:18:20 > 0:18:26..I saw Hutu doctors butchering Tutsi patients in their beds.

0:18:27 > 0:18:30I saw people pulled from ambulances.

0:18:30 > 0:18:33I tried to escape with my family.

0:18:33 > 0:18:38Sylvie and my sons, Louis and Paul.

0:18:40 > 0:18:43We ran to the Nyabarongo, our greatest river.

0:18:46 > 0:18:48It was clogged with bodies.

0:18:48 > 0:18:52They looked like a heaving mass of fish, in a fisherman's net.

0:18:53 > 0:18:57The crocodiles ate well that day, and for 100 days after.

0:19:00 > 0:19:04I heard them behind me.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07Sylvie tried to pretend it was a race

0:19:07 > 0:19:09but they couldn't run as fast as me.

0:19:10 > 0:19:12I heard them being attacked.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16I looked back and...

0:19:18 > 0:19:21..I was afraid.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23I saw the men with the machetes.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Their eyes were unconcerned.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32They had a job to do

0:19:32 > 0:19:33and they did their work.

0:19:37 > 0:19:39Afterwards...

0:19:42 > 0:19:43..I tried to find them.

0:19:44 > 0:19:47I knew there was no point but I tried.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51I looked for them amongst the bloodied clothes.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54But there was nothing.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56Only bloodied rags and...

0:20:00 > 0:20:02..piles and piles of bones.

0:20:06 > 0:20:07I was not a killer.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12I was not a killer - I was a coward.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20I left my wife and children and saved myself.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26You have got to be kidding me.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28Come on, Tyler. Show us how it's done.

0:20:32 > 0:20:33If my mates could see me now.

0:20:33 > 0:20:37- Maybe they will.- Hey!- Joke.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39You look like a natural - don't you think, Zara?

0:20:39 > 0:20:41Like a fish on a bicycle.

0:20:41 > 0:20:42Oh!

0:20:44 > 0:20:46Here, let me help you.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49OK, show's over.

0:20:52 > 0:20:55So, no regrets about leaving Ireland?

0:20:55 > 0:20:59No, I think I'm going to like it here. Although from what everyone tells me,

0:20:59 > 0:21:01Jas is a really hard act to follow.

0:21:01 > 0:21:02What have they told you?

0:21:02 > 0:21:05Just how great she was. Everyone seemed to like her.

0:21:05 > 0:21:06Didn't you?

0:21:06 > 0:21:09Yes. Yes, I liked her.

0:21:09 > 0:21:12More than like?

0:21:12 > 0:21:13Well...

0:21:14 > 0:21:17Go on, spill the beans.

0:21:17 > 0:21:20I, um...not that there are any beans to spill

0:21:20 > 0:21:22but I did kind of have a little bit of a thing for her.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24She broke your heart, didn't she?

0:21:24 > 0:21:27No, it never got anywhere near that.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29Oh, what the heck. It's better you find out from me

0:21:29 > 0:21:32than from one of our esteemed colleagues.

0:21:32 > 0:21:35Long story short. Jas had a stalker.

0:21:35 > 0:21:37Everybody thought it was me.

0:21:39 > 0:21:44Gosh. How horrible for you.

0:21:44 > 0:21:47Yes. Thank you for saying that. Yes, it was.

0:21:47 > 0:21:51I may have been a bit over-keen on her but it was only because I was

0:21:51 > 0:21:54keeping such a close eye on her that we were able to...you know.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56You were spying on her?

0:21:56 > 0:21:58Sort of.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00Yeah, but in a good way.

0:22:01 > 0:22:05The important thing is, I saved her life! That's what they all seem to forget.

0:22:05 > 0:22:07They caught the guy who was doing it?

0:22:07 > 0:22:10I caught him. Sort of.

0:22:10 > 0:22:11Sort of how?

0:22:12 > 0:22:15There you go. That's not that hard, is it?

0:22:15 > 0:22:19Yeah, I might ask for one of these for my birthday.

0:22:20 > 0:22:23Anyway, it's not about us, is it?

0:22:23 > 0:22:26- As long as we can pass on some tips to our patients...- Yeah, absolutely.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30You've got to be prepared to go the extra mile for them, don't you?

0:22:30 > 0:22:32I had a new mother not so long ago -

0:22:32 > 0:22:34she kept going on about how useless she was.

0:22:35 > 0:22:39Glad I stuck with her, though. Now she sends me photos of her family.

0:22:42 > 0:22:46Well, if it's such a doddle, why don't you go on to demonstrate the massage technique for us?

0:22:46 > 0:22:49- Hey, I've done my bit.- Clearly NOT so in touch with his feminine side.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51At least he has a feminine side.

0:22:58 > 0:23:01Thanks for suggesting the scenic route.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03I had to make up for that mediocre food, didn't I?

0:23:03 > 0:23:06- It wasn't that bad. - My pudding was cold.

0:23:06 > 0:23:07OK, it was pretty bad

0:23:07 > 0:23:10but not as bad as hospital food - nothing's as bad as that.

0:23:10 > 0:23:12You had your fair share?

0:23:12 > 0:23:14I did a placement in an A&E in Dublin.

0:23:14 > 0:23:18But I couldn't hack it - the pressure, not the food.

0:23:18 > 0:23:19I hate hospitals.

0:23:20 > 0:23:24Actually, I find being a GP pretty scary, too.

0:23:24 > 0:23:30Eh? No, you'll be fine. We'll look after you.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32They're a peculiar bunch of people at the Mill

0:23:32 > 0:23:35but they are well-meaning - for most of the part.

0:23:35 > 0:23:37No complaints so far.

0:23:37 > 0:23:41I remember my first practice. They all really looked after me.

0:23:41 > 0:23:44At the time I was the most unbearable brat.

0:23:44 > 0:23:46No, really?!

0:23:46 > 0:23:48Mm. All you've got to do is remember the golden rules.

0:23:48 > 0:23:51- Which are? - "If in doubt, refer it on" and...

0:23:51 > 0:23:53Yes?

0:23:53 > 0:23:55.."If in doubt, refer it on."

0:23:56 > 0:23:57Thanks, Al.

0:24:05 > 0:24:07Why didn't you tell me?

0:24:09 > 0:24:10I couldn't talk about it.

0:24:12 > 0:24:13How did you get here?

0:24:15 > 0:24:17An aid worker helped me get to England.

0:24:19 > 0:24:22- I'm sorry I deceived you.- No.

0:24:22 > 0:24:27I knew there was something but I didn't want to know, either.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31I needed you.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34I didn't marry you to stay in this country, Brenda.

0:24:36 > 0:24:37I love you.

0:24:41 > 0:24:43- You've never said that before. - I know.

0:24:46 > 0:24:49I was too afraid.

0:24:49 > 0:24:50Afraid to travel, afraid to...

0:24:52 > 0:24:55..afraid to do anything that would take me back.

0:24:59 > 0:25:02I'm not going to lie. I've spent the majority of today

0:25:02 > 0:25:04wondering what the hell I'm doing here.

0:25:05 > 0:25:09But the last hour has been really illuminating.

0:25:09 > 0:25:12Trying out the knitted breasts, I think I finally get it.

0:25:12 > 0:25:17I always pooh-poohed them before, but...

0:25:17 > 0:25:20I felt a bond with the baby.

0:25:20 > 0:25:24We men always think we know it all but the truth is we don't.

0:25:26 > 0:25:30And thanks to sharing this experience with you,

0:25:30 > 0:25:32I finally have a better understanding of what it's like

0:25:32 > 0:25:36to have a living, breathing...bundle of joy snuggled up against you.

0:25:43 > 0:25:48Now that I have this information, I can hopefully offer you a much fuller diagnosis.

0:25:48 > 0:25:50I suspect that you still may be suffering from some

0:25:50 > 0:25:52kind of post-traumatic stress disorder,

0:25:52 > 0:25:55which could be contributing to your hallucinations.

0:25:55 > 0:25:57Can you help me to stop them?

0:25:57 > 0:26:01Even with treatment, I'm not sure we can erase the images completely.

0:26:01 > 0:26:04But there is other support we can offer - counselling, therapy.

0:26:04 > 0:26:08- We'll be fine.- Thank you. We'll look at anything you suggest.

0:26:18 > 0:26:20Thanks for what you said in there, Kevin.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23- I think I've read you all wrong. - No, you haven't.

0:26:23 > 0:26:25That's OK, women usually find there's more to me

0:26:25 > 0:26:28- than meets the eye. - So maybe we could meet up some time.

0:26:28 > 0:26:30I can dig a little deeper.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34Sure. Shall we exchange numbers?

0:26:34 > 0:26:38I'll see you outside. Nice to meet you.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40HE HUMS

0:26:40 > 0:26:41That was cheesy - even for you.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44What do you mean? Are you not glad I came?

0:26:46 > 0:26:50Any other course you want to sign me up for - I'm in.

0:26:56 > 0:26:57Oh, ah!

0:26:57 > 0:27:02Oh, Charlie. I leave you for one minute...

0:27:02 > 0:27:03Don't fuss.

0:27:03 > 0:27:08You say Pissarro, I say Picasso... Let's call the whole thing...

0:27:12 > 0:27:13Karen! No! Keep inside the cage.

0:27:13 > 0:27:17- Sorry.- Keep it pointed down. And not at humans!
