0:00:36 > 0:00:38All set?
0:00:38 > 0:00:41Yes. Yes, everything seems to be in order.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43What time do the other investors arrive?
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Just before you start.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47I'll introduce you after your presentation.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50Relax, you'll be fine.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52Just five more years I need of funding.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Your research is brilliant, Doctor Plumridge.
0:00:55 > 0:01:00I know it. Now all you've got to do is convince the others.
0:01:00 > 0:01:01Thank you.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Whoa. What's Tembe doing here?
0:01:05 > 0:01:06Stock audit.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09I only brought my paperwork over here so I could dodge her.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11Hope you've counted your paper clips.
0:01:13 > 0:01:17Ah, Dr Carter, perfect timing.
0:01:17 > 0:01:22There is a specialist in cardiology speaking at St Phil's this morning.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24He'll be discussing his research into the prevention
0:01:24 > 0:01:26of cardiovascular disease.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28His name is Dr Philip Plumridge.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30What?
0:01:30 > 0:01:31No way!
0:01:31 > 0:01:32Plum?
0:01:32 > 0:01:35That man was the bane of my life when I was a junior.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38He's pompous, arrogant, vain...
0:01:38 > 0:01:41You know him, Dr Haskey? Well, this may prove very useful.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45Oh, hello, Heston. I didn't know you were here today.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48Er, I've heard about Plumridge. His fascinating research...
0:01:48 > 0:01:51It's all about prevention, which is definitely the way forward.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54I am very glad to hear that because, er, well,
0:01:54 > 0:01:56I would like you to attend, if you're available.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58I would love to.
0:01:58 > 0:01:59Excellent.
0:01:59 > 0:02:03Dr Haskey, I want you to go with Dr Carter
0:02:03 > 0:02:05and report back your views.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07I would rather boil my head.
0:02:11 > 0:02:12Very well.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Oh, Mrs Hollins,
0:02:16 > 0:02:21perhaps you could remind me about the festive holiday rota.
0:02:21 > 0:02:26Now, I believe that Dr Haskey requested New Years.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Whoa, whoa, whoa. We talked about this, didn't we?
0:02:29 > 0:02:31I need the five extra days
0:02:31 > 0:02:35- so that I can go with the lads to the Lake District, remember?- Ah.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Ah?
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Well played, Mrs Tembe. I'll just get my coat.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45That woman plays me like a cheap violin.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50I think you can probably tell from my drained demeanour
0:02:50 > 0:02:52that I've had a pretty devastating weekend.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56I mean, it's hard to talk about, but
0:02:56 > 0:02:59I should tell you that Ashley and I broke up over the weekend.
0:02:59 > 0:03:00Oh, Valerie.
0:03:00 > 0:03:01I'm sorry to hear that.
0:03:01 > 0:03:05The last thing I'd want to do is burden anybody with my own grief
0:03:05 > 0:03:10and I'd certainly don't want anyone to feel guilty.
0:03:10 > 0:03:11Why would I feel guilty?
0:03:11 > 0:03:13All I did was try and keep the peace between you.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Yeah, but it didn't work, though, did it?
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Well, it's not my fault, is it?
0:03:17 > 0:03:22Alas, there was nothing anyone could do to stop the vast chasm
0:03:22 > 0:03:24that had opened up between us and consumed 'Valash'
0:03:24 > 0:03:26forever in its depths.
0:03:27 > 0:03:28'Valash'?
0:03:28 > 0:03:31It was Valerie and Ashley merged.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33And, yet, merged no more.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37And, like I say, I don't hold you responsible.
0:03:37 > 0:03:38Not really.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Could I have a word? When you've finished?
0:03:41 > 0:03:44Now's really good for me, so, yeah.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46- Yeah, let's go. - Great.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53Now I know how poor Emma feels
0:03:53 > 0:03:57cos I'm suffering from my own 'bereavement', you see?
0:03:57 > 0:03:58The absence.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02The huge, gaping Ashley-shaped hole.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04Well, maybe it's a blip?
0:04:04 > 0:04:06It might blow over.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08No. It's for good.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11He's taken his Civil War dioramas.
0:04:11 > 0:04:12Sorry?
0:04:12 > 0:04:14- He's moved in with his Auntie Betty. - Right. Yeah.
0:04:16 > 0:04:17That sounds serious.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22My gaping hole is Auntie Betty's gain.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26It's a big responsibility.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29It is, especially since most of the time antibiotics are only
0:04:29 > 0:04:30prescribed to keep the patients happy.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32They're ineffective against viral infections,
0:04:32 > 0:04:34then the patients don't finish the course
0:04:34 > 0:04:37and then the antibiotics become less effective. Not to mention...
0:04:37 > 0:04:41Sid! You're preaching to the converted. I'm with you on this.
0:04:41 > 0:04:42- You are?- Yes.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46I only prescribe antibiotics when it's absolutely necessary.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48- Good. That's really good to hear. - OK.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55I think he's ones of the finest physicians in the country.
0:04:55 > 0:04:56Heston, no!
0:04:56 > 0:04:59The man is rude. He's pompous.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01He's rude. He's self-obsessed.
0:05:01 > 0:05:02Have I mentioned rude?
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Coming from you, that's quite something.
0:05:05 > 0:05:06He used to starch his jacket
0:05:06 > 0:05:09so heavily, you'd hear him rustling along a corridor
0:05:09 > 0:05:11before he entered the room and then when he did enter,
0:05:11 > 0:05:14you'd be blinded by these pink cravats.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17Always the same ridiculous pink cravats.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19The man thinks he's Noel Coward or something.
0:05:19 > 0:05:20He sounds rather stylish.
0:05:20 > 0:05:24No, he's the vainest doctor in the history of the profession
0:05:24 > 0:05:26and it's a pretty damn vain profession.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30We used to call him 'Plum' cos he is one.
0:05:30 > 0:05:31A plum of the highest order.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Erm, Dr Plum... ridge?
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Haskey.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Dr Heston Carter, Mill Health Centre.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42May I say what an honour it is to...
0:05:46 > 0:05:48See? What did I say?
0:05:48 > 0:05:50So rude, man.
0:05:50 > 0:05:51I think my work here is done.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54What about your holiday in the Lake District?
0:05:55 > 0:05:59'Yeah, yeah, I understand. It's a real cause for concern, but
0:05:59 > 0:06:01'it's the others you want to be speaking to because
0:06:01 > 0:06:04'I never prescribe them unless it's absolutely necessary.'
0:06:04 > 0:06:06I see. Well, that's good to hear.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14I will prove that this research goes far beyond the realms of any
0:06:14 > 0:06:17earlier studies, lesser studies,
0:06:17 > 0:06:19into the effects of statins
0:06:19 > 0:06:21in the prevention of cardio-vascular disease.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23PHONE RINGS
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Oh, it's me.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Sorry.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37PHONE CONTINUES TO RING
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Silencio. My bad. Sorry.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42If the rest of you could please check your mobile phones are switched off,
0:06:42 > 0:06:43I will continue.
0:06:43 > 0:06:47Please do that. Think you were saying something about the statins.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49If you are find my research unarresting,
0:06:49 > 0:06:52perhaps you'd care to go elsewhere?
0:06:52 > 0:06:54- My pleasure. - DR PLUMRIDGE COUGHS
0:06:54 > 0:06:55It works every time.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58'For heaven's sake.'
0:06:58 > 0:06:59Sorry, ladies and gentleman.
0:06:59 > 0:07:04Sorry. I'm afraid this briefing will have to continue after a pause.
0:07:05 > 0:07:09- Is there a problem, Dr?- No. Not at all. I just need to take a break.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11My colleagues are very busy people.
0:07:11 > 0:07:12Yes, I understand that!
0:07:14 > 0:07:16If you could arrange for them to return later,
0:07:16 > 0:07:19I think you'll find that my suggested interventions will be
0:07:19 > 0:07:21extremely lucrative for your company.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Are you accusing me of over-prescribing?
0:07:30 > 0:07:33No, I'm speaking to everyone. It's just a process of elimination.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Yeah, well, your process is flawed, OK?
0:07:35 > 0:07:36Talk to the others. Don't talk to me.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38And in any case I didn't make myself clear,
0:07:38 > 0:07:40I only prescribe when absolutely necessary.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43That's...
0:07:43 > 0:07:44Yeah.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Specific drug combinations
0:07:52 > 0:07:55creating an individual interaction.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Oh. An individual intervention.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Oh! Oh!
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Oh! Oh!
0:08:06 > 0:08:08Ah!
0:08:10 > 0:08:11Ah! Ah!
0:08:18 > 0:08:20I can't sleep.
0:08:20 > 0:08:21I can barely eat.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27I suppose, eventually, I will come through the other side.
0:08:27 > 0:08:31Yeah, you will. I know it doesn't feel like that at the moment.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33We have to move through the valley of shadows
0:08:33 > 0:08:34to get back to the light.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Fall off the horse
0:08:37 > 0:08:40so that one day we can remount and ride again.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44I suppose I should think about dating.
0:08:44 > 0:08:45Isn't it a bit soon?
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Well, I don't want to leave it too long.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49I mean, I know I am a woman in my prime,
0:08:49 > 0:08:51but that won't last long.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53And a woman has needs...
0:08:54 > 0:08:56..that need fulfilling.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Maybe just take it slowly.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Oh, I've never had a problem meeting men.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04No, that's always been natural.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07They are drawn to me like bees to a flower.
0:09:07 > 0:09:08Like bats to a...
0:09:10 > 0:09:11..belfry.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15Of course, when I was with Ashley, we were exclusive.
0:09:15 > 0:09:19Oh, yeah. I was totally monotonous.
0:09:19 > 0:09:20But now...
0:09:22 > 0:09:24..of course...
0:09:27 > 0:09:28What?
0:09:30 > 0:09:33I can give other worthy suitors a chance.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38There's always been an almost overwhelming
0:09:38 > 0:09:40UST between Dr Carter and me.
0:09:40 > 0:09:41UST?
0:09:41 > 0:09:42Unspoken sexual tension.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45Poor Dr Carter,
0:09:45 > 0:09:48he's never been able to fully indulge his feelings, you see?
0:09:50 > 0:09:53So, he didn't actually get round to presenting his research.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55I was sent on a wild goose chase.
0:09:56 > 0:09:57That is a shame.
0:09:57 > 0:10:01Perhaps Dr Carter will be of a different opinion.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04- Morning.- I understand Dr Haskey works here.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06- He does. - Er, Dr Haskey?
0:10:06 > 0:10:09- I'd like to make an appointment, please.- Name, please?
0:10:09 > 0:10:10Immediately.
0:10:10 > 0:10:15This is the illustrious Dr Plumridge.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19I recognise you from your website.
0:10:19 > 0:10:24I am Mrs Tembe, acting practice manager.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28We intend to start our own patient group.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31We are looking at the prevention of cardiovascular disease
0:10:31 > 0:10:34and your research,
0:10:34 > 0:10:36it is of great interest to us.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38It's of great interest to everybody.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42I'm sorry I don't shake hands.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45I find the palmar surface
0:10:45 > 0:10:48a most ready zone for the transmission of disease and virus.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50It really is most urgent.
0:10:50 > 0:10:51Dr Haskey!
0:10:54 > 0:10:56Dr Haskey, you have a patient.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Dr Haskey!
0:10:58 > 0:10:59You have a patient!
0:11:04 > 0:11:06I need help.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09I know you don't like me, but
0:11:09 > 0:11:11at least I know you're well trained.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14Whoops. It's OK.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16Try and keep calm. It's OK.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Don't take me to hospital.
0:11:18 > 0:11:19You're really not well.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24Please?
0:11:24 > 0:11:27OK, ladies. Come on. Let's bring him through here.
0:11:27 > 0:11:28That's it. Keep coming.
0:11:38 > 0:11:39Heston.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41Valerie?
0:11:41 > 0:11:43You might have heard that Ashley
0:11:43 > 0:11:46and I have decided to end our relationship.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48Yes, I'm very sorry to hear that.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51I thought you were eminently well-suited.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53You don't have to be polite, Heston.
0:11:53 > 0:11:54Oh, I'm not.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56I know how you really feel.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59You do?
0:11:59 > 0:12:01Yes, and I feel the same.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04The attraction's always been there, Heston.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07Now, we're both single, it's probably a good idea to
0:12:07 > 0:12:09work on it.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15OK. Your pulse is getting back to normal.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20So, this has been going on a long time, eh?
0:12:20 > 0:12:23A long, long time.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25But it's been getting worse lately.
0:12:25 > 0:12:29I hoped no-one was noticing, but today...
0:12:29 > 0:12:31Erm, they noticed.
0:12:32 > 0:12:38This research briefing, I just can't mess it up.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40Try not to worry about that now.
0:12:40 > 0:12:45Can you sit up for me and tell me when it first started.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48DR PLUMRIDGE STRAINS
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Gah!
0:12:51 > 0:12:52Ah!
0:12:53 > 0:12:55Oh!
0:12:55 > 0:12:58First, I noticed difficult chewing.
0:12:58 > 0:13:02And sometimes when I blink, my eyes don't open.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04OK. Any particular triggers that set it off?
0:13:04 > 0:13:09I've been very stressed lately, but I've been taking something for it.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12I thought it was narcolepsy. I've been self-medicating.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14I'm not sure that's working.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16If anything it's getting worse.
0:13:16 > 0:13:20I have to be OK for this afternoon.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Pitching for professional funding is horrible.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24No wonder you've been feeling stressed.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26It's been my life's work.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29I've lost my friends, my family...
0:13:31 > 0:13:33..even my wife.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36What if the investors don't come back?
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Well, we'll get some bloods
0:13:42 > 0:13:44and then we'll take it from there.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46- It's going to be all right.- Oh!
0:13:50 > 0:13:53You see, we're like planets, you and me.
0:13:53 > 0:13:57Circling around each other, in each others' orbit,
0:13:57 > 0:13:59trying to resist the strong gravitational pull.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04Now it's time for the Big Bang.
0:14:04 > 0:14:05Erm,
0:14:05 > 0:14:07my dearest Valerie,
0:14:07 > 0:14:11I think the heightened emotion is getting to you.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14- Is it?- Yes, I never thought I'd hear you speak quite so...
0:14:14 > 0:14:16- candidly.- Oh?
0:14:16 > 0:14:19I mean, you're upset and that's natural,
0:14:19 > 0:14:21but you'll soon come to realise, as I have done,
0:14:21 > 0:14:26that there is much to be said for being on one's own.
0:14:26 > 0:14:30- Is there?- Independence, the bliss of solitude.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32The joy of being single.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36So, you and I...
0:14:37 > 0:14:40..not going to happen, I'm afraid.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50He doesn't want to take advantage of me while I'm still healing.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54Oh, that's so like Dr Carter.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Such a gentleman.
0:15:02 > 0:15:06So, once we get the bloods back, we can start to rule things out.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08You mean motor neuron?
0:15:08 > 0:15:11It's a process of elimination, but we will get there.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13You need to start to take things easy,
0:15:13 > 0:15:16so I suggest you postpone this afternoon.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18I cannot postpone this afternoon.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22I need this investment to continue my research.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25Yea, I understand that, but this is your health.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26Thank you for your input.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33Why do I bother?
0:15:40 > 0:15:42KNOCK ON DOOR
0:15:46 > 0:15:48Oh, hello.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Hiding from a certain single lady?
0:15:52 > 0:15:53Is it that obvious?
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Don't worry. I won't tell.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57She has a very vivid imagination.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01You're not ready for a Big Bang, then?
0:16:01 > 0:16:02Not even a minor explosion.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09I thought you handled it really well.
0:16:09 > 0:16:10Thank you.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15- Ruhma... - PHONE RINGS
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Damn.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19- Sorry, I have to get this. - Of course.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28Oh, I heard you had a VIP patient.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Oh, yeah? Dr Plum.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33Plummy McPlumridge.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35He's got the strangest symptoms.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Seizing up.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Involuntary movements.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41Sounds like he needs a neurological opinion?
0:16:41 > 0:16:42Yes.
0:16:42 > 0:16:43Goats.
0:16:45 > 0:16:49- What?- This is the sort of thing that happens with goats.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53Mrs Tembe, I've got a patient about to lose his life's work.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56Pray tell, how are goats going to help him?
0:16:56 > 0:16:58I have seen this condition before.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00It was on a nature programme.
0:17:00 > 0:17:04It was called the 'plague of the fainting goats'.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06Plague of the what?
0:17:06 > 0:17:08But surely humans don't get it?
0:17:08 > 0:17:10NO, you don't get it. You're born with it.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12According to the internet,
0:17:12 > 0:17:15it's the human variation of congenital myotonia.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17That's what your goats get, Mrs Tembe.
0:17:17 > 0:17:18It's an inherited condition which
0:17:18 > 0:17:21affects the voluntary skeletal muscles.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23And does that fit with Dr Plumridge?
0:17:23 > 0:17:26Well, it causes a delay in the relaxing of the muscles,
0:17:26 > 0:17:27so, yes, it is.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Just like the goats, as I said.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33Outstanding work, Mrs Tembe.
0:17:33 > 0:17:34I do my best, Dr Haskey.
0:17:36 > 0:17:37Where are you going?
0:17:37 > 0:17:40I'm off to give old Plum the good news.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43He's not going to like hearing that he's got so much in common
0:17:43 > 0:17:44with old goats.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48No doubt you will deliver the news with your usual tact and diplomacy?
0:17:48 > 0:17:49Yeah, that's a good point.
0:17:49 > 0:17:53- I'm going to have to handle this with kid gloves.- Oh.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55You see, cos a young goat is called a kid.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56Yes, I got it.
0:18:00 > 0:18:04So, I've concluded that antibiotic overprescribing
0:18:04 > 0:18:06just isn't the problem you seem to think it is.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09So, that's good news, isn't it?
0:18:11 > 0:18:14How did you come to this conclusion, Dr Vere?
0:18:14 > 0:18:17I spoke to all our doctors and they're all
0:18:17 > 0:18:20in complete agreement that over-prescribing is rife and...
0:18:20 > 0:18:24And I suppose that they all told you that they never
0:18:24 > 0:18:28prescribe antibiotics unless it is absolutely necessary?
0:18:29 > 0:18:32Yes. How did you know that?
0:18:32 > 0:18:35Of course that is what they will say,
0:18:35 > 0:18:39but it is what they do that is important.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41Were you really going to take their word for it?
0:18:41 > 0:18:43Er.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Evidence,
0:18:45 > 0:18:48is what is required if you want to solve this issue.
0:18:51 > 0:18:55It is time to become forensic, Dr Vere.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58For-en-sic.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06So much for doctor's orders.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09I'm sure that I told you to rest up.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13I told you this afternoon is too important.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19I worked out what's up with you.
0:19:21 > 0:19:25It's inherited and it affects the voluntary skeletal muscles.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29What we have on our hands is myotonia congenita.
0:19:29 > 0:19:30Myotonia congenita?
0:19:30 > 0:19:32I'm sure you've heard of it.
0:19:32 > 0:19:36It would explain the stiffness, the freezing, the jerky movements, wouldn't it?
0:19:36 > 0:19:38Famously, it effects goats, so...
0:19:38 > 0:19:40- Goats?!- ..you're in good company. - Goats.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44Stop wasting my time, you, you dolt!
0:19:44 > 0:19:47And to think I put my professional faith in you!
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Dr Plumridge.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52Mr Wood, thank you so much for coming back.
0:19:52 > 0:19:53I'm very sorry about earlier.
0:19:53 > 0:19:54That's quite all right.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56The other investors and myself
0:19:56 > 0:19:59believe your findings very much worth waiting for.
0:19:59 > 0:20:00- But don't let us down again.- No.
0:20:04 > 0:20:05It's good stuff.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13Here's a print-out of all the antibiotics prescribed over
0:20:13 > 0:20:14the last six months.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18These will help us to discover where the practice is going wrong.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20There is a different colour for each doctor.
0:20:21 > 0:20:26This will help us to see very clearly who is the worst offender.
0:20:26 > 0:20:30There's loads of them. Can't I just do it on the computer?
0:20:30 > 0:20:32Yes, of course.
0:20:32 > 0:20:36If you can design the software with which to do it.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39I thought not.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Dr Vere, statistical analysis,
0:20:42 > 0:20:46well, it works best when it starts from the simplest method.
0:20:46 > 0:20:51I suggest that you proceed alphabetically.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53This is going to take me ages.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55I've got referral letters I need to do.
0:20:55 > 0:20:56Oh.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59Oh, yes, yes, of course.
0:20:59 > 0:21:03Well, but the immune system of the whole community is in your hands.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12It's my long-held belief that in order to defeat
0:21:12 > 0:21:15cardiovascular disease, we have to address the cause.
0:21:15 > 0:21:19But the cause is different in each individual.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22However, with a combination of ACE inhibitors,
0:21:22 > 0:21:27angiotensin II receptor blockers, and ca...
0:21:28 > 0:21:29Is he OK?
0:21:32 > 0:21:33I'm fine, now.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36No. No, you're not. Please.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38Let me tell them what I think this is.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41- No.- Look, if I don't, then they're just going to presume it's something
0:21:41 > 0:21:43far more serious.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45Think of me as damage limitation.
0:21:47 > 0:21:49Go on, then.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51Folks, it's my belief that the doctor is
0:21:51 > 0:21:54suffering from a condition called myotonia congenita.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58It's causing these involuntary muscle contractions.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00It explains why he's acting, well,
0:22:00 > 0:22:02pardon the phrase, a little bit weird.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05You really should have informed us of your condition, Dr Plumridge.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09Yeah, but he didn't know he had the condition and it's not life-threatening.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11It just means from time to time he's going to fall over.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13Right now, he's sitting down.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15In a bit, he's going to be just fine.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20My speech. Could you finish it for me, please?
0:22:20 > 0:22:23- You sure?- There's the notes. Don't go off script.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27How many more chances are we supposed to give him?
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Just one. Please, come on, sit down.
0:22:29 > 0:22:30Come on. Hear me out.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32Hear him out.
0:22:34 > 0:22:35Where were we?
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Er, so, er?
0:22:37 > 0:22:42"Specific drug combinations..." Yeah, that was a bit dry, wasn't it?
0:22:42 > 0:22:44"Individualized intervention..." Yadda, yadda, yadda.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47You know what? It's just common sense.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50Say, for example, your old man is suffering from heart disease,
0:22:50 > 0:22:53chances are, you are going to as well
0:22:53 > 0:22:57unless this research comes to fruition.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00Now, the good doctor has been through the fine details,
0:23:00 > 0:23:03but if this works, it could change the health of a nation.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07It could even bring out the end heart disease as we know it.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10The question that you've got to ask yourself is...
0:23:12 > 0:23:16.."Is this man here the right man to do it?" Well, let me tell you,
0:23:16 > 0:23:18this man
0:23:18 > 0:23:22is a brilliantly inspired scientist.
0:23:22 > 0:23:23He is s dedicated.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26He is driven to bringing about
0:23:26 > 0:23:31medical revolution that could save millions, nay, billions of lives.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34So if you're going to invest your money in someone,
0:23:34 > 0:23:37then I say invest it in this man.
0:23:40 > 0:23:41Just, er...
0:23:43 > 0:23:44..don't expect him to thank you.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55- Oh!- I'm sorry.- No, no, no. - That was my fault.
0:23:55 > 0:23:56Sorry, I didn't see you.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00Er, Ruhma, about, erm...
0:24:00 > 0:24:03- Friday.- Yes. Do you think we should...?
0:24:03 > 0:24:04Talk? Yeah.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09- I'm going to go for a... - Want a cup of tea?- Yeah.
0:24:09 > 0:24:10In the... Staffroom.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15Yeah. I'll...
0:24:15 > 0:24:18- Great.- I'll see you in, er...- OK. - ..five.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23- KNOCK ON DOOR - Hello?
0:24:26 > 0:24:29I thought you ought to know,
0:24:29 > 0:24:32they have given me the five years' funding
0:24:32 > 0:24:36and they've been more than generous with my personal allowance.
0:24:36 > 0:24:40- Congratulations.- And all because of your illuminating speech, they said.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43Well, you know, whatever got you your funding.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46Oh, I have booked you an appointment to see the neurologist.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49We can see how close to the mark my diagnosis was.
0:24:51 > 0:24:53I have to admit, I am relieved.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56When I realised it wasn't narcolepsy, I was scared.
0:24:58 > 0:24:59I bet.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03So your diagnosis is off the wall, but, erm,
0:25:03 > 0:25:04inspired.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09Wow. I'm sorry, I'm not sure I heard that right.
0:25:09 > 0:25:10Was that praise there from you to me?
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Don't get carried away.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15The way you delivered my speech?
0:25:15 > 0:25:19Differentiated individualized drug interventions. None of the detail.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21The way you pooh-poohed the genetic analysis.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23You know, nothing changes.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26It was all there in the notes. All you had to do was read it out.
0:25:26 > 0:25:30- You couldn't even do that! - To think that I wasted my time.
0:25:30 > 0:25:34You are the most ungrateful, self-satisfying plum
0:25:34 > 0:25:37I've ever had the misfortune to spend my time with.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Enjoy your funding, I got for you!
0:25:46 > 0:25:48I don't...
0:25:48 > 0:25:53- I mean, maybe we shouldn't dissect this.- No. No dissecting.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55I don't want you to think that I would normally...
0:25:55 > 0:25:57No, me neither.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59I mean, I don't kiss.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02- Not colleagues, especially. - Exactly.
0:26:02 > 0:26:03Not anyone, really.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08We could, erm,
0:26:08 > 0:26:09go for a meal?
0:26:10 > 0:26:14- To eat, do you mean? - Eating, some drinking.
0:26:16 > 0:26:17That would be nice.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20There's a lovely Italian bistro that's just opened.
0:26:20 > 0:26:21Right.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23Yeah.
0:26:25 > 0:26:26Course, if you'd rather not?
0:26:28 > 0:26:32No, maybe we're not the sort of going out to dinner sort of people.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34You know? Maybe.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38Yes, you're right. Forget I mentioned it.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40Yeah, let's just forget about it.
0:26:40 > 0:26:41Crazy.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56Oi! What do you think you're doing?
0:26:56 > 0:26:58Howard believed in us.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00So let's do this for Howard, for the Mill,
0:27:00 > 0:27:01for mankind.
0:27:02 > 0:27:03- Run!- Whoa!- Come here.
0:27:05 > 0:27:06I don't want to die.
0:27:06 > 0:27:07Heston, It's for the team.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09You can't actually hit them.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11You said that.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13This team can save humanity.
0:27:13 > 0:27:14- Go!- Yeah!
