0:00:30 > 0:00:32Gwen, I can manage.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35No, you can't. Not unless I take you.

0:00:35 > 0:00:36What are you doing?

0:00:36 > 0:00:39I can't get off work this afternoon. I'll call the surgery.

0:00:39 > 0:00:40Gwen, listen to me...

0:00:40 > 0:00:43Is that the Mill? My father has an appointment today,

0:00:43 > 0:00:45but he won't remember, and I can't get him there,

0:00:45 > 0:00:47so we need a home visit.

0:00:50 > 0:00:54There are many benefits to having an experienced midwife,

0:00:54 > 0:00:56such as Sister Hanif, here.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58The centre she used to work at had to let her go

0:00:58 > 0:01:00due to a lack of funds.

0:01:01 > 0:01:05That is why I believe it would be an opportunity for us

0:01:05 > 0:01:07to adopt a new health initiative.

0:01:09 > 0:01:13I think we should pursue this with St Philomena's.

0:01:13 > 0:01:15I know I should have discussed it with you first,

0:01:15 > 0:01:19but please, just look at the research.

0:01:21 > 0:01:22Summarise it.

0:01:22 > 0:01:27Local midwives have the benefit of extra support,

0:01:27 > 0:01:30and surely it is better for a mother to have one midwife

0:01:30 > 0:01:33that she can form a relationship with.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Hospitals cannot make this happen.

0:01:39 > 0:01:40We can.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43She's already clashed with Heston.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45Why don't we just get another midwife?

0:01:45 > 0:01:48She has already put a lot of hard work into this.

0:01:48 > 0:01:52It would be unfair to exclude her just because of Dr Carter.

0:01:52 > 0:01:55Are the differences personality or are the differences professional?

0:01:55 > 0:01:59I do not know. You will have to discuss that with him.

0:01:59 > 0:02:00Dr Granger?

0:02:03 > 0:02:05Actually...I'm for it.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08That's not what you were saying the other day.

0:02:08 > 0:02:12Yeah, I know, but...Zara persuaded me.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15All the work that she's doing on breast-feeding...

0:02:15 > 0:02:18I think we could be doing more things like this in the community.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20So she'd be happy.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23Is Dr Carmichael voting for it?

0:02:23 > 0:02:25She doesn't want to be a back-seat driver.

0:02:25 > 0:02:29So she's abstaining until she's back. But it gets my vote.

0:02:29 > 0:02:31But not mine. Sorry.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33I think it needs to be unanimous.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35Why not?

0:02:35 > 0:02:36I'm just not sure we need it.

0:02:38 > 0:02:42Mr Bellamy was 100% behind this.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45What a wonderful legacy to leave!

0:02:47 > 0:02:49Yeah. That's emotional manipulation

0:02:49 > 0:02:51and I think it's totally the wrong reason to do it.

0:02:51 > 0:02:52If we're going to invoke Howard,

0:02:52 > 0:02:54then Howard would know when to let it go.

0:02:54 > 0:02:57Maybe in the long term we could revisit it.

0:02:57 > 0:03:01I have arranged for Sister Hanif to come in today,

0:03:01 > 0:03:04to give you both a short presentation.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07You've already sprung things on us once - you're not doing it again.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09I've got a patient to see. Cancel her!

0:03:13 > 0:03:14Would you like to take a seat?

0:03:14 > 0:03:15Thank you.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20Hello, it is Mrs Tembe. I am afraid it is still a no.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23When you get this message, can you please phone me back?

0:03:23 > 0:03:24And once again, I am so sorry.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26Right. I'm off.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28Have you cancelled the midwife? Yes.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31Midwife? Don't worry, nothing's changed. It's not happening.

0:03:31 > 0:03:34Sister Hanif was just coming to make a presentation.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37No wonder I was suddenly switched to house calls.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39So she's not even here and Mrs Tembe's keeping her away from you?

0:03:39 > 0:03:42Jimmi, do not let that woman anywhere near this practice.

0:03:42 > 0:03:43It's dead in the water.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45Mr Reynolds?

0:04:19 > 0:04:20What are YOU doing here?!

0:04:22 > 0:04:24I work here.

0:04:24 > 0:04:26Yeah, but you're supposed to be off!

0:04:28 > 0:04:30I am so sorry.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33I did not think you were going to be in today.

0:04:33 > 0:04:37I did not want you to see me behind Mr Bellamy's desk like that.

0:04:37 > 0:04:40No, it's fine.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42Of course you would step up.

0:04:42 > 0:04:46The patients go on, the Mill goes on.

0:04:48 > 0:04:49Everything goes on.

0:04:53 > 0:04:57Six months since your diagnosis? Yep.

0:04:57 > 0:05:00How have you been? Good, all things considered.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02Well, you're neither tachycardic or bradycardic.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04Right in the Goldilocks zone.

0:05:04 > 0:05:08And...70, so your pulse rate is fine.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11He's running out of his cholesterol medication.

0:05:11 > 0:05:12I'll write you another prescription.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15Can we hurry this up, please? I need to get back.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17You don't need to wait, I'll show myself out.

0:05:17 > 0:05:18I need a word first.

0:05:25 > 0:05:26His memory's getting worse.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29You heard him - he didn't grasp what you were talking about.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31That was just a bit of medical jargon.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34I don't think he can look after himself any more.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37He forgets things, gets confused.

0:05:37 > 0:05:39We need to put him in a home.

0:05:39 > 0:05:42We?! You're the doctor. You know how to make it happen.

0:05:42 > 0:05:43Have you spoken to him about it?

0:05:43 > 0:05:46Not directly. Who kicks it off, you or me?

0:05:46 > 0:05:50You. You contact social services and then you look into homes.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52But you have to talk to him first.

0:05:52 > 0:05:53Who'll pay?

0:05:53 > 0:05:56Sorry? For the care home.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58Well, you need to talk to social services.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03Mrs Tembe, hello.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06Oh, I...left you a message.

0:06:06 > 0:06:08Oh. I'm sorry, I've not checked.

0:06:08 > 0:06:09Well, I'm here now.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13I'm here to see Mrs Tembe.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15Oh. Right.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17You know each other?

0:06:17 > 0:06:18Through St Phil's.

0:06:18 > 0:06:23Oh...I am so sorry. But the partners do not want to proceed.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26Is this about Howard's proposal?

0:06:26 > 0:06:27Yes.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30Well, who said no?

0:06:30 > 0:06:32Not here, come through.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41There's no point trying to protect them, Mrs Tembe.

0:06:41 > 0:06:42I'm just going to ask.

0:06:46 > 0:06:47It was Dr Clay.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49Why?

0:06:49 > 0:06:51He feels that there is emotional pressure.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54Because it was Mr Bellamy's idea.

0:06:54 > 0:06:57But I truly believe having Sister Hanif here

0:06:57 > 0:06:58would be good for the practice.

0:06:58 > 0:07:02I agree. And not just because it was Howard's idea.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04Perhaps you could have a word with Dr Clay?

0:07:04 > 0:07:07No, I... I don't think I'm the right person.

0:07:07 > 0:07:08Emma's right.

0:07:08 > 0:07:11If he felt he was being emotionally pressured...

0:07:11 > 0:07:14having Emma get involved would only make things worse.

0:07:15 > 0:07:21Mrs Tembe, I'm sorry to ask, but my next appointment's round the corner.

0:07:21 > 0:07:23While I'm here with time on my hands,

0:07:23 > 0:07:26is it possible to find a bit of room to do some work?

0:07:26 > 0:07:29Yes, yes, of course. Come with me. Thank you.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34BEEP

0:07:34 > 0:07:36What's that?

0:07:36 > 0:07:40It's this game I play. Brain...brain training.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42It helps, doesn't it?

0:07:42 > 0:07:44Well, it won't do any harm.

0:07:46 > 0:07:49You coping at home all right?

0:07:49 > 0:07:51Yeah!

0:07:51 > 0:07:56I mean, I'm on my own, mostly, and I had to give up my job.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59Not too lonely?

0:07:59 > 0:08:01Me? No.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04The one upside about dementia is that Gwen's round a lot more.

0:08:04 > 0:08:05Used to be once in a blue moon.

0:08:05 > 0:08:08Did you sort out that paperwork, like I asked?

0:08:08 > 0:08:10Yes...we did it yesterday, remember?

0:08:12 > 0:08:15Oh... Course.

0:08:15 > 0:08:16I'll get that for you.

0:08:24 > 0:08:27Social services will ask me for an assessment.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30Now, I'm not sure he's ready to go into care yet.

0:08:30 > 0:08:34We may be better with other options, like home support.

0:08:34 > 0:08:37I've seen a lot more of him than you have.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39That's as may be. But he seems in fine shape.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42Don't you believe me? Well, it's not a question of belief.

0:08:42 > 0:08:47But surely he's better off at home, with support, looking after himself.

0:08:47 > 0:08:48I'm running after him all the time.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50He doesn't always remember to eat.

0:08:50 > 0:08:54I know it's very difficult sometimes looking after the people we love.

0:08:54 > 0:08:58I...can't keep giving up the time. Even with home support.

0:08:58 > 0:08:59I'll look at the options.

0:09:05 > 0:09:09Oh, Jimmi, there you go. I'll get your printer cartridge replaced.

0:09:09 > 0:09:10Ah, great, thank you.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12So, weekend courses?

0:09:12 > 0:09:16Yeah, I'd been thinking about taking up something new for a while.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Recent events...

0:09:18 > 0:09:20There's no point putting anything off.

0:09:20 > 0:09:21Never too old to start a new adventure.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23But I'm too young to hear that!

0:09:23 > 0:09:25No, but I know what you mean.

0:09:25 > 0:09:29I've got a brand-new kitchen and nobody to cook for but Rob.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31Maybe you should get some of your workmates over?

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Road-test that kitchen of yours.

0:09:33 > 0:09:34I was thinking I would do that.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39My Cooks Heaven party tomorrow night got cancelled.

0:09:39 > 0:09:42People will want to snap it up, but it's still available.

0:09:42 > 0:09:45You get a great discount on food and drink.

0:09:45 > 0:09:46And if you take it up short notice,

0:09:46 > 0:09:49we get loads of extra goodies for free.

0:09:49 > 0:09:50We?

0:09:50 > 0:09:54You get the freebies, and I get my commission. Oh!

0:09:55 > 0:09:57Emma?

0:10:00 > 0:10:01If you want to talk...

0:10:01 > 0:10:04No. No, I don't. And certainly not at work.

0:10:11 > 0:10:12Smile.

0:10:13 > 0:10:16What are you doing?

0:10:16 > 0:10:18Have you got nothing better to do than irritate

0:10:18 > 0:10:20one of your co-workers on their break?

0:10:20 > 0:10:22Stop papping me, please, James!

0:10:22 > 0:10:25Oh, come on, give me a break. Didn't you ever want to be a model?

0:10:25 > 0:10:28Just the swimsuit kind.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31I'm thinking of taking up a new hobby.

0:10:31 > 0:10:34Photography. It's either that or basket weaving, aromatherapy.

0:10:40 > 0:10:42Thanks, Karen.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45What is that woman doing here?

0:10:45 > 0:10:48Ruhma? Mrs Tembe said that she could use Zara's room.

0:10:53 > 0:10:57Oh...well?

0:10:57 > 0:10:59I like it.

0:11:00 > 0:11:03One could set one's watch by it.

0:11:03 > 0:11:04By what?

0:11:04 > 0:11:05That middle-aged thing.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08You know, you lose someone close to you, so you think,

0:11:08 > 0:11:10"I know! I must improve my life!"

0:11:10 > 0:11:12Just like New Year's resolutions.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14Then you'll feel even more miserable once you fail.

0:11:14 > 0:11:16Why are you my friend?

0:11:16 > 0:11:19It's my honesty. Can you go and be David Bailey elsewhere, please?

0:11:19 > 0:11:21I'm not middle-aged either!

0:11:21 > 0:11:22Took you long enough.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24Smile.

0:11:24 > 0:11:25Let me be cool. Go on.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27I can't do that.

0:11:27 > 0:11:28Let me be cool.

0:11:28 > 0:11:30I need a filter for that.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32Oh, I want it all - now!

0:11:32 > 0:11:34Have you got a stapler?

0:11:35 > 0:11:40So, Cooks Heaven party...your place, tomorrow night?

0:11:40 > 0:11:41What about Sergeant Hollins?

0:11:41 > 0:11:43He loves cooking and entertaining!

0:11:43 > 0:11:44Sounds fun.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47I have nothing else planned.

0:11:47 > 0:11:52Good, so you're coming. Must remember to invite Ayesha and Niamh.

0:11:52 > 0:11:53Coming to what?

0:11:57 > 0:11:59You don't all have to walk on eggshells around me.

0:11:59 > 0:12:02We're not, no, it's just that Karen's having some of the team

0:12:02 > 0:12:04over tomorrow for one of my Cooks Heaven events.

0:12:04 > 0:12:08And if you're feeling up to it, she'd love you to come, too,

0:12:08 > 0:12:12but completely understand if it's not right for you.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16I think I'll pass, if that's all right.

0:12:16 > 0:12:17Of course.

0:12:17 > 0:12:18I need some fresh air.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22You handled that really well.

0:12:22 > 0:12:24Oh, you must come too, right, Karen?

0:12:24 > 0:12:27Yeah. Brilliant!

0:12:37 > 0:12:40Mrs Tembe? I need a word now.

0:12:40 > 0:12:43Well, you'll just have to make the time.

0:12:43 > 0:12:45Yes, two minutes will be fine.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47KNOCK ON DOOR Yes?

0:12:47 > 0:12:48We need you in reception.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50HE SIGHS

0:12:52 > 0:12:55No, you definitely had a house call earlier.

0:12:55 > 0:12:56That's ridiculous!

0:12:56 > 0:12:58I'd remember if I had a house call earlier. Can I help?

0:12:58 > 0:13:00I have an appointment, Dr...

0:13:00 > 0:13:01Carter.

0:13:01 > 0:13:03We saw each other an hour ago.

0:13:03 > 0:13:07Yes...now you're here...I remember.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09I'm very sorry.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11Can I get you something?

0:13:11 > 0:13:13Some water.

0:13:13 > 0:13:17Why don't we sit down over here and have a chat?

0:13:17 > 0:13:19I must have forgotten.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21What is happening to me?!

0:13:21 > 0:13:26Well, with dementia, at this stage, you'll have good days and bad days.

0:13:26 > 0:13:28It's perfectly normal.

0:13:28 > 0:13:31I think we should call Gwen. She has power of attorney.

0:13:31 > 0:13:32She needs to know what happened.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35Is that what the paperwork was?

0:13:35 > 0:13:38I signed the house over to her.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40The house?

0:13:40 > 0:13:43To protect it if I have to go into care.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45For her.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47What's Gwen's situation?

0:13:47 > 0:13:50Good job, her own flat. She's doing very well.

0:13:50 > 0:13:54Actually, this has been mortifying. I'm sorry for wasting your time.

0:13:56 > 0:13:59Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

0:13:59 > 0:14:02His house in Westbourne Park is worth a lot of money.

0:14:02 > 0:14:05Get it signed over to her, and then stick him in a home?

0:14:05 > 0:14:07Oh, Mrs Tembe.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10HE SIGHS

0:14:16 > 0:14:17Hey.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19I said I didn't want to talk about it.

0:14:19 > 0:14:21You said not in there.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24All right, you win that one on a technicality.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28One question and then if you want me to leave, fine.

0:14:28 > 0:14:29One.

0:14:29 > 0:14:33Do you want me to treat you like a doctor or a patient?

0:14:33 > 0:14:36I just want people to stop treating me like I'm going to break.

0:14:36 > 0:14:37A patient, then.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39Whatever.

0:14:39 > 0:14:42Then, how have you been?

0:14:42 > 0:14:46Fine, mostly. A little bleeding.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49Do you want me to check...? No.

0:14:49 > 0:14:50A little bleeding's...

0:14:50 > 0:14:53Is normal after a miscarriage. Yes, I do know.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58How's it feel being back here?

0:14:58 > 0:15:00I thought it was one question. I lied.

0:15:03 > 0:15:06It's weird.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09Harder than I thought it would be. But I just have to focus,

0:15:09 > 0:15:13get to the end of the day and then it's done.

0:15:15 > 0:15:18Losing a baby is hard. Losing your partner is hard.

0:15:18 > 0:15:20Losing both...

0:15:20 > 0:15:23I don't know what you're going through.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26I can only try to help, so please let me.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32Does anyone in the Mill know what happened?

0:15:32 > 0:15:34Some.

0:15:34 > 0:15:37I think that's why Jimmi said no to the midwife proposal.

0:15:37 > 0:15:42He's worried that having you here will be a constant reminder to me.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44At least he hasn't got an irrational dislike to midwives.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46Unlike that cranky...

0:15:47 > 0:15:49Who?

0:15:49 > 0:15:51Bow ties.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53Oh. Heston?

0:15:53 > 0:15:57"Cantankerous, arrogant fool" trips off the tongue a bit easier.

0:15:57 > 0:15:59Perhaps we should put that on his door.

0:16:04 > 0:16:06This is about what works for you.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09Getting from one day to the next, that's fine.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11But you don't have to do it on your own.

0:16:16 > 0:16:19If you find any problems just give us a ring.

0:16:19 > 0:16:21Is Mrs Tembe free yet? She's got meetings...

0:16:21 > 0:16:24PHONE RINGS ..but she might get a few minutes in between.

0:16:24 > 0:16:26Hello, Mill Health Centre.

0:16:28 > 0:16:31DOOR CLOSES Oh, Mrs Tembe?

0:16:31 > 0:16:33Heston! It's Gwen Taylor.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36Her dad, he's not come home and he's not got his phone.

0:16:36 > 0:16:38Miss Taylor?

0:16:43 > 0:16:44George?

0:16:50 > 0:16:51George?

0:16:53 > 0:16:54Gwen's worried about you.

0:16:56 > 0:16:57Can I get in?

0:17:08 > 0:17:10What happened?

0:17:10 > 0:17:12I don't know how to get home.

0:17:12 > 0:17:15I got in, started the car and...

0:17:15 > 0:17:19and...knew I didn't know where to go.

0:17:19 > 0:17:21What is happening to me?

0:17:24 > 0:17:28This is as good as it gets...now?

0:17:28 > 0:17:32And... And it's going to get worse?

0:17:32 > 0:17:36It's...never going to get better.

0:17:38 > 0:17:42George...do you think you CAN look after yourself?

0:17:42 > 0:17:44I don't want a care home.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48But...but...

0:17:48 > 0:17:51I've been enough of a bother. I'll be fine.

0:17:51 > 0:17:53Please, just leave me. It'll come back to me.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55I WILL remember.

0:17:57 > 0:18:00You shouldn't be driving.

0:18:00 > 0:18:01HE SIGHS

0:18:05 > 0:18:08Karen, I'm taking Mr Taylor home.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10So you think maybe the daughter's right?

0:18:10 > 0:18:12I don't know. He's had one bad day.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15Maybe she just doesn't want anything bad to happen to him. Hmm.

0:18:15 > 0:18:20Dr Carter, my next meeting has been delayed. I have a few minutes.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23I'm helping a patient right now. Can we catch up later?

0:18:23 > 0:18:26I am very busy for the rest of the day.

0:18:26 > 0:18:28Right.

0:18:47 > 0:18:49I was thinking of taking up photography.

0:18:49 > 0:18:52Good for you. What's got you into that?

0:18:52 > 0:18:55Oh, you know, after what happened,

0:18:55 > 0:18:57just thought I'd turn over a new leaf.

0:18:58 > 0:19:02Right. So it could be anything?

0:19:02 > 0:19:06It's not actually that you like taking pictures?

0:19:06 > 0:19:08It's just I've got an uncle who's a bit of a camera bore...

0:19:08 > 0:19:10I mean, an amateur photographer.

0:19:10 > 0:19:12I wanted to get into it for a little while, but I guess

0:19:12 > 0:19:14he could tell I wasn't really that into it.

0:19:14 > 0:19:17He said, "Don't waste all your money on lenses and whatnot

0:19:17 > 0:19:19"until you know you've tried it and you like it."

0:19:19 > 0:19:22You know, I always thought the blokes with the big lenses were compensating

0:19:22 > 0:19:27for something. Like middle-aged men with sports cars and trophy wives.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29So if I need any advice, I know where to find you.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34He gave me one of his old camera bodies actually. I've still got it.

0:19:34 > 0:19:35Never used it.

0:19:35 > 0:19:37It's yours if you want to try it out.

0:19:37 > 0:19:39It's a bit like that one actually.

0:19:39 > 0:19:40Really?

0:19:41 > 0:19:45That one? Mm. That's the one I was looking at.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48Good choice. That's one of the ones my Uncle Merv recommended.

0:19:48 > 0:19:50If you like, I could show you

0:19:50 > 0:19:52a couple of good starter lenses he told me to get.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54Yeah, that'd be useful.

0:19:54 > 0:19:59Well, apparently, the best place to start is a good 50mm lens.

0:19:59 > 0:20:03This one. It's a good all-rounder, so he says.

0:20:05 > 0:20:10Long-term memory is OK and I can remember how to do things I used to.

0:20:10 > 0:20:13I don't have any problem with the actual driving.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15It's just where you're going?

0:20:15 > 0:20:20That's never happened before. I... I forget things, small things.

0:20:20 > 0:20:22Is it getting worse?

0:20:22 > 0:20:24I don't know.

0:20:24 > 0:20:25I don't remember.

0:20:27 > 0:20:29Your father's fine.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31I don't like the way you talk to me.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34Well, I'm concerned for his wellbeing.

0:20:34 > 0:20:36He needs a care home.

0:20:36 > 0:20:38Well, there are areas of concern, I agree, but...

0:20:38 > 0:20:41He couldn't remember his way home! He couldn't contact me!

0:20:41 > 0:20:44Which, for now, seems like an isolated incident.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47We need to keep an eye on him, see if there's further deterioration.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49What? When it happens again?

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Well, I'm not sure he should be driving, for a start.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54Which would make him even more dependent on me!

0:20:54 > 0:20:56This isn't your decision.

0:20:56 > 0:20:59We have to do what's in his best interests.

0:20:59 > 0:21:03Are you saying I wouldn't? Why else would I do it?

0:21:03 > 0:21:06Some people might be concerned about losing their inheritance.

0:21:06 > 0:21:07How dare you?

0:21:07 > 0:21:09And of course, for the next six years,

0:21:09 > 0:21:12the social services will treat this house as his asset.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15You need to back off. And I want a second opinion.

0:21:25 > 0:21:29Um, I've looked at Mr Taylor's notes and I've talked to him.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31I've not been able to do anything

0:21:31 > 0:21:34which leads me to a definitive conclusion.

0:21:34 > 0:21:36However, with everything I've seen,

0:21:36 > 0:21:38I would be inclined to agree with Heston.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40And that's not just doctors sticking together.

0:21:40 > 0:21:43His dementia is advancing. What if he forgets to take his meds?

0:21:43 > 0:21:45That could be dangerous, right?

0:21:45 > 0:21:47Yes.

0:21:47 > 0:21:49He lives alone. He isn't getting any stimulation.

0:21:49 > 0:21:53So the chances are, he's going to start dwelling in the past.

0:21:53 > 0:21:54His memory's going to get worse.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56Sometimes family has to step up

0:21:56 > 0:21:58and look after the welfare of their loved ones.

0:21:58 > 0:22:01There's only me and I can't give up my life.

0:22:01 > 0:22:03You have power of attorney? Yes. No.

0:22:03 > 0:22:06Your father told me you have.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08We talked about it once, but I don't want it.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10You have the house in your name.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12HE put it my name. I don't want it.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15It's nothing but bad memories before Mum walked out.

0:22:15 > 0:22:19She took me with her, but I barely knew him till a couple of years ago.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22He reached out, then this dementia happened.

0:22:22 > 0:22:26I know what happened between my parents wasn't all his fault.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28But there were times when... when I really needed him

0:22:28 > 0:22:31and he was never there.

0:22:31 > 0:22:34Just because we share some genes... I won't sacrifice my life.

0:22:34 > 0:22:38I never wanted the house, but he gave me no choice.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41So sell it, give it to the care home! I hate the place.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45Heston!

0:22:46 > 0:22:48George...you told me

0:22:48 > 0:22:51that you signed power of attorney over to your daughter.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53Is that true?

0:22:53 > 0:22:55Yes. I talked about it with her.

0:22:55 > 0:22:58Yes, but did you do it? Did you speak to a lawyer?

0:22:58 > 0:23:00We never got round to it. Course we did.

0:23:00 > 0:23:03No. You put the house in my name. That's it.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05I thought...

0:23:07 > 0:23:10But if you're sure... I guess I can't have.

0:23:12 > 0:23:13Heston.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18I think I've been unfair on her.

0:23:18 > 0:23:20You got off on the wrong foot? Like you did with the midwife?

0:23:20 > 0:23:23You're bringing Ruhma to the Mill.

0:23:23 > 0:23:25I told you. I've already dealt with it.

0:23:25 > 0:23:26I've got to get back.

0:23:29 > 0:23:30George...

0:23:33 > 0:23:35Gwen is worried...

0:23:35 > 0:23:39that you won't be able to look after yourself.

0:23:39 > 0:23:42And she can't commit the time to caring for you.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46So we need to investigate

0:23:46 > 0:23:51whether extra support or a home is the best option for you.

0:23:51 > 0:23:53I want to stay in my home.

0:23:53 > 0:23:59I understand that, but we need to know what we're going to do

0:23:59 > 0:24:01if things deteriorate.

0:24:07 > 0:24:10I told you it wasn't about the money.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13I know. I'm sorry.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23Jimmi, I've been looking for you.

0:24:23 > 0:24:29Um, I understand that Mrs Tembe put Howard's midwife proposal to you.

0:24:29 > 0:24:30Yes.

0:24:30 > 0:24:34And you vetoed it? Why? It's a good idea.

0:24:34 > 0:24:35It wasn't right for us.

0:24:38 > 0:24:41I understand that you're being sensitive to me

0:24:41 > 0:24:44and how I might feel, seeing Ruhma in the building all the time.

0:24:44 > 0:24:48That was something I had to take into consideration.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51I know more than anyone right now how important it is to have

0:24:51 > 0:24:54a good midwife around when things go wrong.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57And I think our patients deserve that.

0:24:57 > 0:24:58Yeah, but we can't go back over decisions

0:24:58 > 0:25:00just because the staff don't like it.

0:25:00 > 0:25:05Yeah, but right here, right now, I'm not just staff, am I?

0:25:05 > 0:25:09Emma, this is the kind of emotional manipulation that really worries me.

0:25:09 > 0:25:12You don't have to worry about me being reminded.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14It's not like I'm going to forget.

0:25:14 > 0:25:16You will get past this.

0:25:16 > 0:25:18I don't want to get past it, Jimmi.

0:25:19 > 0:25:22And, well, you know, you don't get past this stuff, do you?

0:25:22 > 0:25:25You just carry it with you.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27I dread the day that I wake up

0:25:27 > 0:25:29and Howard isn't the first thing that I think of.

0:25:29 > 0:25:32And as awful as this is, that will be worse.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36Thank you for letting me use the room, Mrs Tembe.

0:25:36 > 0:25:39I really wish I could have done more.

0:25:39 > 0:25:42I feel like I promised you so much and delivered nothing.

0:25:42 > 0:25:43It's not your fault.

0:25:44 > 0:25:46Oh. Speak of the devil.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48Leaving so soon?

0:25:48 > 0:25:51It was good to see you again.

0:25:51 > 0:25:54"Life is but a walking shadow, a poor player

0:25:54 > 0:25:59"that struts his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more."

0:25:59 > 0:26:01"It is a tale...

0:26:01 > 0:26:06"told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."

0:26:06 > 0:26:09Macbeth Act 5, Scene 5.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12Yes, she is still here...

0:26:14 > 0:26:18So, Dr Clay and I went through Howard's proposal again.

0:26:18 > 0:26:20And we've decided to take it to the trust.

0:26:22 > 0:26:26Why the change of mind? Does it matter?

0:26:26 > 0:26:28Are you happy?

0:26:30 > 0:26:33OK, just one elephant in the room to sort out, then.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35Heston. Hm. I could have a word.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38No. Where's the fun in that?

0:26:45 > 0:26:47I thought tonight was about supporting Valerie

0:26:47 > 0:26:50and taking everyone's mind off Howard.

0:26:50 > 0:26:51Not showcasing our new kitchen.

0:26:51 > 0:26:53Spread your wings, ladies.

0:26:53 > 0:26:57They want to buy, you want to make that happen.

0:26:57 > 0:26:59Welcome to your Cooks Heaven.

0:26:59 > 0:27:02You will find something here that's perfect for any kitchen.

0:27:02 > 0:27:04Spoon!

0:27:04 > 0:27:06Everybody just stop!
