0:00:26 > 0:00:28MUSIC: Temptation by New Order

0:00:30 > 0:00:32Good night, was it...sweet prince?

0:00:34 > 0:00:35How did you get in here?

0:00:35 > 0:00:38I remembered your home security system -

0:00:38 > 0:00:40leave the key in the front door.

0:00:40 > 0:00:42Can't wait to see you in the costume.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44Costume? What costume?

0:00:44 > 0:00:46I knew it was too much to ask.

0:00:46 > 0:00:47What?

0:00:47 > 0:00:50You're on volunteer's duty, remember?

0:00:50 > 0:00:52Just let me sleep off my hangover, will you?

0:00:52 > 0:00:54When will you learn?

0:00:54 > 0:00:57Nightclubs are for young people.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00Oh, baby!

0:01:00 > 0:01:02MUSIC CONTINUES IN BACKGROUND

0:01:05 > 0:01:07CAR ALARM BLARES

0:01:07 > 0:01:09SIRENS WAIL IN DISTANCE

0:01:17 > 0:01:19Tell me you didn't wear your shades in the shower.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21Why not? They're waterproof.

0:01:22 > 0:01:26- What did you think of those links I sent you?- Links?

0:01:26 > 0:01:28To properties. All in our price range.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32Oh, right, yeah. Er, none of them were quite right.

0:01:32 > 0:01:33You didn't even bother looking.

0:01:33 > 0:01:36Baby, you send me loads of links. I can't look at all of them.

0:01:36 > 0:01:38That would be so strenuous.

0:01:38 > 0:01:41Are you sure that you even want this, Logan?

0:01:41 > 0:01:43"This"?

0:01:43 > 0:01:45Me, you, us...

0:01:45 > 0:01:48together, under one roof?

0:01:48 > 0:01:51Ever since I suggested it, you've been really weird. Distant...

0:01:51 > 0:01:55I'm just knackered, that's all. These club nights are intense.

0:01:55 > 0:01:57I bet they are.

0:01:57 > 0:01:58Meet anyone nice, did you?

0:02:00 > 0:02:01What? I was working.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03And it's not like you to mix business and pleasure.

0:02:04 > 0:02:08I'm just saying, if you're not 100%, say now.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10I'm more than 100%.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13I'm like 110 or 111.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16I used to feel like I was at the centre of your world.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18Now I feel like a fleeting annoyance.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20You always seem so distracted.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23Flat-hunting isn't exactly my bag, so I'm happy to take a back seat.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26When you find somewhere decent and affordable,

0:02:26 > 0:02:27I'll go along with it, no sweat.

0:02:27 > 0:02:29"Go along with it"?

0:02:29 > 0:02:31I want to know that you believe in this relationship,

0:02:31 > 0:02:33otherwise, what's the point?

0:02:33 > 0:02:34Was that a rhetorical question?

0:02:34 > 0:02:37Logan Flynn, as I live and breathe...

0:02:37 > 0:02:39Haskey, mate! What's up?

0:02:39 > 0:02:40You know, same old.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43Modern-day superhero, saving lives.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45You still a...still a disc jockey?

0:02:45 > 0:02:47Yeah, course I am. What else am I going to do?

0:02:47 > 0:02:49Have you guys met?

0:02:49 > 0:02:52- Maya's been keeping me on the straight and narrow.- Have I?

0:02:52 > 0:02:54I'm Al, Dr Al Haskey.

0:02:54 > 0:02:57- Hi.- We were at med school together before I got lost in music.

0:02:57 > 0:03:00Which is a shame, because I would have made an excellent doctor.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03You weren't too keen on attending lectures, though, were you?

0:03:03 > 0:03:05No, nor the alarm clocks.

0:03:05 > 0:03:06THEY LAUGH

0:03:06 > 0:03:07Sorry to break up the reunion,

0:03:07 > 0:03:10only, we're running late for the blood clinic.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14Yeah, I'll see you around, mate.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17Nice to see you, mate. You're wearing sun glasses in February.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19Course you are!

0:03:21 > 0:03:22Mum?

0:03:22 > 0:03:24DANCE MUSIC PLAYS IN BACKGROUND

0:03:24 > 0:03:26Hello?

0:03:29 > 0:03:30Oh...

0:03:30 > 0:03:33So you're the lucky guy, then?

0:03:33 > 0:03:35Wake up, there's someone here.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37WOMAN GROANS

0:03:40 > 0:03:42Set a date yet?

0:03:43 > 0:03:45- Ohh...!- Hi.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48- Ugh!- Nice.

0:03:48 > 0:03:50SHE SIGHS

0:03:54 > 0:03:58Move over, Robert Pattinson. There's a new kid in town.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01- What if somebody recognises me? - Then you ask them to give blood.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04I mean, a fan. I've got a reputation to maintain.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06Fancy dress is terminally uncool.

0:04:06 > 0:04:11- I think you suit the role perfectly, much better than Reg.- Who's Reg?

0:04:11 > 0:04:14Our other volunteer. He's having his hip replaced.

0:04:15 > 0:04:18So, I think it's best to stick to the campus.

0:04:18 > 0:04:21All those wide-eyed maidens ripe for seduction,

0:04:21 > 0:04:23- you'll be in your element.- Hm!

0:04:23 > 0:04:26You know the drill - go and find us some new blood.

0:04:26 > 0:04:28I can't be the real deal, can I?

0:04:28 > 0:04:30Cos there I am, looking hideous...

0:04:31 > 0:04:34- ..and middle-aged. - You are middle-aged.- Thank you(!)

0:04:34 > 0:04:36It's a fact, not an insult.

0:04:36 > 0:04:39Wrong! Middle-age is just a state of mind.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Put your teeth back in.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Is it any wonder I've been drowning my sorrows?

0:05:00 > 0:05:04Sierra was my little angel, my only ray of sunshine

0:05:04 > 0:05:07in this miserable, wretched life!

0:05:07 > 0:05:10And you - YOU made them take her away from me.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12You're not my daughter.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14You're nothing to me now!

0:05:15 > 0:05:18I'll put the kettle on then, shall I?

0:05:26 > 0:05:27I knew I could rely on you.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30Just doing my bit for humanity. And I get to skive off work.

0:05:39 > 0:05:41You're all right, I know it off by heart.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43Best have another look. I know what you're like.

0:05:43 > 0:05:44Oh, yeah. What am I like?

0:05:44 > 0:05:46Soon as you give blood, you're off to go and operate

0:05:46 > 0:05:49- some heavy machinery. - Oh, really?- Yeah!

0:05:49 > 0:05:51Don't say I didn't warn you.

0:05:53 > 0:05:55Oh, don't mind him.

0:05:55 > 0:05:58What's he after? Go on, clear off!

0:05:58 > 0:06:00HE HISSES

0:06:05 > 0:06:07I thought I was out of teabags.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11You were. I did a shop for you.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14You can keep any fresh stuff. The fridge is broken.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17The plug was dislodged. It's fine.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19Agh, you've got to be kidding.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21Eat it. It's good for you.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32I lost count of the empty bottles.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34What did you expect?

0:06:34 > 0:06:37Your drinking didn't start when Sierra left.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39It's been a problem for ages.

0:06:41 > 0:06:45Do you honestly think this is the right place to bring up a kid?

0:06:49 > 0:06:52MUSIC: The Golden Path by The Chemical Brothers

0:06:55 > 0:06:58# As I walked along

0:06:58 > 0:07:02# The supposed golden path

0:07:02 > 0:07:05# I was confronted

0:07:05 > 0:07:07# By a mysterious spectre

0:07:09 > 0:07:12# He pointed to the graveyard

0:07:13 > 0:07:16# Over on yonder hill

0:07:16 > 0:07:18# I paused in cosmic reflection

0:07:20 > 0:07:23# Confused and wondering

0:07:23 > 0:07:26# Of how I came to die... #

0:07:38 > 0:07:42She's loving school, and the teachers gave her a glowing report.

0:07:42 > 0:07:43She's made loads of friends, too.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45Tracey said she can't keep up

0:07:45 > 0:07:47with who her bezzie is, changes every week.

0:07:48 > 0:07:52Do you think I could have a copy? Of the report?

0:07:53 > 0:07:56- Of course.- Thanks.

0:07:59 > 0:08:03If you managed to clean up your act, then you might get regular contact.

0:08:05 > 0:08:06- Do you reckon?- Sure.

0:08:06 > 0:08:10You could see her once a week, maybe even more, eventually.

0:08:13 > 0:08:15It wasn't all bad, was it?

0:08:15 > 0:08:19You, me, Carl and Debs - we had some good times.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22Yeah, we had some good times.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26Well, I'd better let you get on.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30Thanks for the grub.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32I've got the day off.

0:08:32 > 0:08:35Well, you don't want to be wasting it in a dump like this, do you?

0:08:35 > 0:08:37I'll stay a bit longer.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39SHE SIGHS

0:08:39 > 0:08:41Right.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57Come on, you've got plenty of blood to spare,

0:08:57 > 0:09:00and it's only a small prick... so to speak. You won't feel a thing.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02And there is free biscuits, so what is not to like?

0:09:02 > 0:09:04THEY LAUGH

0:09:04 > 0:09:06Nah, nah...

0:09:08 > 0:09:11Flynn, nice outfit.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13Yeah, Maya's idea.

0:09:13 > 0:09:14It really suits you.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16Mm, so she says. I beg to differ!

0:09:16 > 0:09:19- Well, keep up the good work, Vlad. - Mm!

0:09:20 > 0:09:24- Haskey, mate...- Yeah?- Erm...

0:09:24 > 0:09:26Do you fancy a bite to eat?

0:09:26 > 0:09:28Oh, very funny. I see what you did there.

0:09:28 > 0:09:30Yeah, no pun intended.

0:09:30 > 0:09:33You're serious? Yeah, I suppose so.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36What do you fancy, a STAKE sandwich?

0:09:36 > 0:09:37Ahh... Hilarious(!)

0:09:39 > 0:09:41- So, your proposal?- Yeah.

0:09:41 > 0:09:45Now, in the seven years I've been at The Mill,

0:09:45 > 0:09:49I don't think we've ever really made enough

0:09:49 > 0:09:52of our minor surgery provision.

0:09:52 > 0:09:55So, here's my question.

0:09:55 > 0:09:58Why don't we expand in this area

0:09:58 > 0:10:04and offer patients a friendly, local and straightforward service?

0:10:04 > 0:10:08- Well, you're absolutely right to ask that question.- Mm-hm.

0:10:08 > 0:10:13The Mill has considerable scope to expand its range of services

0:10:13 > 0:10:15but minor surgery is a non-starter, I'm afraid.

0:10:15 > 0:10:18I've already asked and the CCG aren't supporting it.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21Well, they need to think again because surgery performed here,

0:10:21 > 0:10:24near the patient's home, is far more cost-effective.

0:10:24 > 0:10:25Cost-effective for whom?

0:10:25 > 0:10:27- The whole health economy.- I agree.

0:10:27 > 0:10:29Good, right. There we are, then.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31But The Mill isn't "the whole health economy".

0:10:31 > 0:10:33In our patch, the kind of procedures

0:10:33 > 0:10:36you're talking about are already covered by secondary care.

0:10:36 > 0:10:40If we did them, we'd be paying twice, and out of our own pockets.

0:10:40 > 0:10:41It doesn't make sense.

0:10:45 > 0:10:48Ever since med school, I just got used to a certain lifestyle.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51You know, a different girl every month, every week, sometimes.

0:10:51 > 0:10:52I'm impressed you kept count.

0:10:52 > 0:10:55I'm not bragging. It's just the way it was.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57If a relationship lasted longer than a few weeks,

0:10:57 > 0:10:58alarm bells went off in my head.

0:10:58 > 0:11:01Somehow, Maya slipped through the net.

0:11:01 > 0:11:04Now she wants us to shack up and buy a place together.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06So she says.

0:11:06 > 0:11:07And what do you want?

0:11:07 > 0:11:11I don't believe in monogamy. It's unnatural and unrealistic...

0:11:11 > 0:11:15and yet, despite my better judgment, I might actually be in love.

0:11:15 > 0:11:19In love. Wow, congratulations.

0:11:19 > 0:11:23No, it's horrible. And wonderful.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25Oh, we get on together great.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28She's smart and funny and we have a real laugh,

0:11:28 > 0:11:31or...at least we did until the flat-hunting.

0:11:31 > 0:11:34It's putting a bit of a strain on things.

0:11:34 > 0:11:37I don't see why we can't carry on the way we are.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39You're 39, right?

0:11:39 > 0:11:4140.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44Right, and 40 is still too young to settle down?

0:11:44 > 0:11:46I want to be with Maya, no question.

0:11:46 > 0:11:49And if buying a place together is what it takes, then so be it.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54Only problem is, now I get the distinct impression

0:11:54 > 0:11:57she's the one who's getting cold feet.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00It's like she's looking for a reason, or an excuse, even...

0:12:00 > 0:12:01To break up?

0:12:02 > 0:12:05Yeah, she gets a lot of attention.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08What if she's got another fella waiting in the wings?

0:12:08 > 0:12:10Someone younger.

0:12:10 > 0:12:12It's like she's hoping she can catch me cheating on her

0:12:12 > 0:12:14cos then she can just dump me without feeling guilty.

0:12:14 > 0:12:17Even this whole cape thing feels like a test.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19Me chatting up students all day cos she thinks it'll lead me

0:12:19 > 0:12:22- down the path of temptation. - And has it?

0:12:22 > 0:12:24I haven't strayed from Maya since we the day we met...

0:12:26 > 0:12:27..weirdly.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33I don't know, maybe I am ready for the pipe and slippers.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36I'm sorry, I don't make up the rules.

0:12:36 > 0:12:39- Yes, but you're supporting them. - How?- By toeing the party line.

0:12:39 > 0:12:41We should lead by example.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43So, if other practices follow,

0:12:43 > 0:12:46the commissioning groups will also have to follow.

0:12:46 > 0:12:50That's a big if - and, in the meantime, we've overspent.

0:12:50 > 0:12:53High-minded ideals won't help anyone if the practice goes bust.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Yes, but you're just thinking about our balance sheet.

0:12:55 > 0:12:56"I'm all right, Jack."

0:12:56 > 0:12:59If you want to put it like that, then yes.

0:13:03 > 0:13:07OK, aside from Blue Monday, name me one decent 12-inch single.

0:13:07 > 0:13:10The whole thing is just some overpriced gimmick

0:13:10 > 0:13:12aimed at geeks and DJs.

0:13:12 > 0:13:14- Er, Love To Love You Baby.- What?!

0:13:14 > 0:13:16Donna Summer, 197... Er, '82.

0:13:16 > 0:13:17LOGAN WINCES

0:13:17 > 0:13:20- You all right, mate? - I've got a dodgy gut.

0:13:20 > 0:13:21That'll be the Icon food.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24You won't be the first and you won't be the last.

0:13:24 > 0:13:26No, it's... Ohh! ..it's not. I had...

0:13:27 > 0:13:29I had a few shots last night.

0:13:29 > 0:13:32I guess I can't handle the booze like I used to.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35Honestly, mate, don't worry about it. It happens all the time.

0:13:35 > 0:13:39- All right, I'm going to...- Yeah, I'll see you around.- Yeah, will do.

0:13:44 > 0:13:45- You sure you're all right? - I knew it.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48All this time, she's accused me of having a wandering eye

0:13:48 > 0:13:50and it's her who's got a bit on the side.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53- OK, let's not jump to conclusions. - Yeah, right!- Look, Logan...

0:13:53 > 0:13:55Don't be silly! Whoa, whoa, whoa!

0:13:56 > 0:13:59Make yourself at home. The vendor's on holiday.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01Have they been here long?

0:14:01 > 0:14:05Three years. Made a shedload of improvements - a new boiler,

0:14:05 > 0:14:08underfloor heating, a paint job last year.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10I'm impressed.

0:14:10 > 0:14:11Bit of a TARDIS effect.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14Loads of space, yet you're right in the middle of all the action.

0:14:14 > 0:14:16Deceptive, eh?

0:14:16 > 0:14:18Right, then, to the bedroom.

0:14:19 > 0:14:21Get ready for the wow factor.

0:14:29 > 0:14:31What do you think you're playing at?

0:14:31 > 0:14:34Ah, good. I could use the extra muscle.

0:14:34 > 0:14:36Absolutely not, I'm not getting involved!

0:14:45 > 0:14:48No, it's just here. Down there.

0:14:48 > 0:14:49Don't mind me.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51So how long's this been going on?

0:14:51 > 0:14:54What? Oh, you don't think...?

0:14:55 > 0:14:57- He's an estate agent! - Oh, God, it gets worse.

0:14:57 > 0:15:00- He was just showing me the hidden storage.- I bet he was!

0:15:00 > 0:15:03- What, he's your boyfriend?- Yeah.

0:15:03 > 0:15:05- Hello again.- What...? What is this?

0:15:05 > 0:15:07Viewings are strictly appointment only. Clear off.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09So you can pick up where you left off?

0:15:09 > 0:15:11- I don't think so, mate. - Logan, don't be ridiculous.

0:15:11 > 0:15:14- Where did you dig him up?- Come on, mate. You haven't been feeling well.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16- No, I'm feeling quite all right... - Hey, easy!- Logan!

0:15:16 > 0:15:18You're punching above your weight, Dracula.

0:15:18 > 0:15:21Want me to knock you down a size? No problem.

0:15:23 > 0:15:27Do you want to kill yourself? Is that what you want?

0:15:27 > 0:15:29Charming! I bet your patients love you.

0:15:29 > 0:15:33Carry on like this, and in a few months, maybe even weeks,

0:15:33 > 0:15:35you're going to be six foot under.

0:15:35 > 0:15:37I want to be cremated.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39You think it's funny, do you?

0:15:39 > 0:15:42Just telling you what I want, that's all.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44I guess you are my next of kin.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48An hour ago, I wasn't even your daughter.

0:15:51 > 0:15:54I don't suppose you've made a will, have you?

0:15:54 > 0:15:56What for? I'm skint.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00Who cares, anyway?

0:16:00 > 0:16:02No-one needs me.

0:16:02 > 0:16:04I'm just a nuisance to you lot.

0:16:04 > 0:16:06Worth more dead than I am alive.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09I doubt it. Funerals don't come cheap, you know.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11Someone's going to have to pay off your debts.

0:16:11 > 0:16:13It'll be me that's out of pocket.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15Ohh, so that's what you're worried about?

0:16:15 > 0:16:18No. I'm worried about your liver.

0:16:18 > 0:16:22If it's not already irreversibly damaged, it soon will be,

0:16:22 > 0:16:23unless you get help.

0:16:34 > 0:16:37How are you coping, financially?

0:16:37 > 0:16:40The kindness of strangers.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43Like that skanky bloke I found you with?

0:16:43 > 0:16:45Who is he, anyway?

0:16:45 > 0:16:46I haven't the foggiest.

0:16:52 > 0:16:54Hmm, you'll have quite a bit of bruising,

0:16:54 > 0:16:57but I don't think there's any structural damage.

0:16:57 > 0:16:59Don't go bleeding on the carpet.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02So, you'll be wanting to put in an offer?

0:17:02 > 0:17:05Ask him. He's the one with the equity.

0:17:05 > 0:17:07That's all I am to you, isn't it? Equity.

0:17:07 > 0:17:10And I get to line his coffers as part of the bargain!

0:17:10 > 0:17:12A nice little ruse you've got going on here.

0:17:12 > 0:17:15Only problem is, I'm not a complete mug.

0:17:15 > 0:17:16No? Well, neither am I,

0:17:16 > 0:17:19if this is what living with you would be like.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24Ooh...

0:17:24 > 0:17:28Sorry, fellas, I need you to move along,

0:17:28 > 0:17:31got another viewing in...five, so...

0:17:36 > 0:17:39If you want, I can help you sort out your finances.

0:17:39 > 0:17:42Oh, cheers. A few notes wouldn't go amiss.

0:17:42 > 0:17:47Cashpoint swallowed my card last week. I'm living off fresh air.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50I meant that I could keep tabs on your bank account, online.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52I'll look at your outgoings,

0:17:52 > 0:17:54make sure you've got enough for food and essentials.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57In fact, just leave all the food shopping to me.

0:17:57 > 0:17:59I can do my own food shop, Eesh. I'm not a total invalid.

0:17:59 > 0:18:02Well, you won't spend the money on food, will you?

0:18:04 > 0:18:08I can't go cold turkey, not straightaway.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10That would kill me.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12You're not expected to do this on your own.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15You're going to need a lot of support.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17There are treatment centres, programmes you can join.

0:18:17 > 0:18:21Rehab?! Thought you had to be a pop star.

0:18:21 > 0:18:25No. I can get you on a waiting list.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28But only if you're serious about staying sober.

0:18:28 > 0:18:30I can't make you change.

0:18:57 > 0:18:59If the nose is still sore in a couple of days,

0:18:59 > 0:19:01then come back into the surgery.

0:19:01 > 0:19:03One of my esteemed colleagues will be...

0:19:08 > 0:19:12Hey, mate, I'm really sorry about Maya.

0:19:13 > 0:19:15Yeah, it's probably for the best.

0:19:17 > 0:19:20At least I get to still keep my bachelor pad.

0:19:21 > 0:19:25Yeah. Try and take care of yourself, though, yeah?

0:19:26 > 0:19:28Oh! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Whoa!

0:19:28 > 0:19:31Hey, Logan... Hey, mate...

0:19:31 > 0:19:32Goodbye.

0:19:32 > 0:19:36Oh, Mrs Tembe, erm, may I have a quick word?

0:19:38 > 0:19:41Yes, yes, of course.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48What are your thoughts on our new bean-counter?

0:19:49 > 0:19:50Anthony.

0:19:52 > 0:19:57Oh, well, I think Mr Harker is...well, he's most professional.

0:19:57 > 0:20:01He seems to have a decent head for business and...

0:20:01 > 0:20:05well, the partners must have been very impressed with his experience

0:20:05 > 0:20:06and credentials.

0:20:07 > 0:20:09You don't need to say the correct thing.

0:20:09 > 0:20:12- This is just between you and me. - Oh, yes. Yes, I know.

0:20:13 > 0:20:16Erm, well, thank you very much for your honesty.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20What do you think of him?

0:20:29 > 0:20:30Hmm.

0:20:30 > 0:20:33So, how long have you been having these aches and pains?

0:20:33 > 0:20:37Oh, a...month, maybe.

0:20:37 > 0:20:40- And the tiredness? - Yeah, about the same.

0:20:40 > 0:20:44Normally, what time would you say you get out of bed?

0:20:45 > 0:20:50Oh, er, three or... No, four or five o'clock.

0:20:50 > 0:20:51I'm guessing that isn't in the am?

0:20:51 > 0:20:54Well, I don't get in till dawn on a work night.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57So what is it, some sort of virus?

0:20:57 > 0:20:59Actually, I fear we might be looking at something else.

0:20:59 > 0:21:01I think you have a vitamin D deficiency.

0:21:01 > 0:21:04I'll need to run some more tests to make sure but,

0:21:04 > 0:21:07given your symptoms and your nocturnal behaviour,

0:21:07 > 0:21:10- I'd say it was a distinct possibility.- Really?

0:21:12 > 0:21:15OK, so what's the fix? Supplements or something?

0:21:15 > 0:21:19Supplements will cure the symptoms, but not the underlying cause.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23You think and act like you're a 21-year-old man,

0:21:23 > 0:21:25but your body's no longer convinced.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27You're saying I can't hack it any more?

0:21:27 > 0:21:31I'm saying it's time to make a few healthy adjustments.

0:21:31 > 0:21:35You could start with getting a few more hours of sunlight in a day.

0:21:35 > 0:21:36Yes, and tucked up in bed by ten o'clock?

0:21:36 > 0:21:38It's not exactly who I am.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41Who you are is a 40-year-old man.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43If you wanted to live fast, die young

0:21:43 > 0:21:45and leave a good-looking corpse,

0:21:45 > 0:21:48I'm sorry, mate, but you've left it too late.

0:21:48 > 0:21:51Mate, it's time to make a few concessions.

0:21:51 > 0:21:52How many concessions do you make?

0:21:52 > 0:21:55We're not talking about me, are we? We're talking about you.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57Go and see the nurse, she'll take some blood.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00It'll take a couple of days for the test to come through,

0:22:00 > 0:22:02but when they do, I'll give you a call, yeah?

0:22:02 > 0:22:05Yeah, all right.

0:22:05 > 0:22:06Thanks, mate.

0:22:06 > 0:22:11You and Maya, you seem like a good match.

0:22:12 > 0:22:14Yeah, erm...

0:22:17 > 0:22:19Plenty more fish and all that.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22Plenty more fish, that's what they say, isn't it?

0:22:22 > 0:22:25But, you know what, mathematically, the chances of meeting someone

0:22:25 > 0:22:28that you really get on with are incredibly rare.

0:22:28 > 0:22:31So if you do find that special person who you have that thing with,

0:22:31 > 0:22:34then you should hold on to them for dear life

0:22:34 > 0:22:36and you should be incredibly grateful

0:22:36 > 0:22:39for that ridiculous mathematical coincidence.

0:22:41 > 0:22:42Yeah.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44Blood tests.

0:22:54 > 0:22:56I know I've let you down.

0:22:56 > 0:23:00I've let everyone down. Sierra most of all.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05You think I'm a hard cow, but I'm not really.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07I know you're not.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11I don't want to live like this, Eesh.

0:23:11 > 0:23:15This isn't what my life was meant to be.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17SOBBING: I'm so ashamed.

0:23:17 > 0:23:21Listen to me. You've been down before and you've got through it.

0:23:21 > 0:23:25This time, you're going to beat it for good.

0:23:25 > 0:23:29I can be there for you, Mum, and so can Carl and Debs.

0:23:29 > 0:23:32We just want you to get better so you can be back in our lives.

0:23:48 > 0:23:51Yeah, exactly. Just have a read of that, see what you think,

0:23:51 > 0:23:54- and then, if you have any more questions...- Ahem...

0:23:57 > 0:23:59Ugh!

0:23:59 > 0:24:02- I could take it to the dry-cleaners if you want?- No.

0:24:05 > 0:24:06Anything else?

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Er, no.

0:24:09 > 0:24:13No, I'll see you around, then?

0:24:13 > 0:24:17Unlikely. I'm not really into the clubbing scene any more.

0:24:19 > 0:24:23- So, if you just sign this and hand it back.- OK, thank you.- Thanks.

0:24:25 > 0:24:29I saw this in the paper, I thought you might want to take a look at it.

0:24:31 > 0:24:32It's got a roof terrace.

0:24:34 > 0:24:36Why don't you take a look at it?

0:24:36 > 0:24:38Let me know if it needs a second opinion.

0:24:41 > 0:24:42Does that mean...?

0:24:42 > 0:24:46I don't know. Maybe we should take a break.

0:24:46 > 0:24:48- Why? It's only going to tell me what I already know.- Which is?

0:24:48 > 0:24:50That I'm not getting any younger.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53- Maybe try to sell yourself a bit more.- And you're one in a million.

0:24:56 > 0:24:58What are the chances of me meeting somebody

0:24:58 > 0:25:00as smart, funny and beautiful as you?

0:25:01 > 0:25:03I'm too modest to say.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06But you could always aim a little less high.

0:25:10 > 0:25:13- I've got to go.- OK.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18Maya, just remember... I know where you work!

0:25:20 > 0:25:21Go!

0:25:26 > 0:25:27Sorry, yeah...

0:25:27 > 0:25:30# Please forgive me

0:25:30 > 0:25:36# I never meant to hurt you. #

0:25:40 > 0:25:42I want to provide extra provision -

0:25:42 > 0:25:45but how can I, without my manager's consent?

0:25:45 > 0:25:46It's like I've hit a brick wall

0:25:46 > 0:25:49and hundreds of patients are suffering.

0:25:49 > 0:25:52I have to say, I can see where Mr Harker is coming from.

0:25:52 > 0:25:54Can you?

0:25:54 > 0:25:57Well, the commissioning group is not supporting additional minor surgery,

0:25:57 > 0:25:59so, really, his hands are tied.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01He should've given it more consideration,

0:26:01 > 0:26:03not brazenly dismissed it out of hand.

0:26:03 > 0:26:06If you ask me, the man is a... What?

0:26:08 > 0:26:10Still here?

0:26:10 > 0:26:14Yeah, Mrs Tembe and I were discussing a patient.

0:26:14 > 0:26:16Oh, yes?

0:26:16 > 0:26:17Is that the time?

0:26:20 > 0:26:23Actually, Heston, I wanted to ask you something.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35Valerie and I are collecting for Hodgkin lymphoma.

0:26:35 > 0:26:37Would you care to contribute?

0:26:37 > 0:26:39Oh, right, yes, of course.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:26:45 > 0:26:47HE MUTTERS

0:26:47 > 0:26:49It's a very good cause.

0:26:52 > 0:26:53There we are.

0:26:55 > 0:26:57Thank you. You're very kind.

0:27:05 > 0:27:07I can't believe that's the whole story.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09She's back with her boyfriend Luke.

0:27:09 > 0:27:12He's got a history of violence, not been out of prison long.

0:27:12 > 0:27:14You give her money, she'll waste it on booze.

0:27:14 > 0:27:16Any idiot knows that, Eesh!

0:27:16 > 0:27:17I can't do it!

0:27:17 > 0:27:19They are going to take Peanut away

0:27:19 > 0:27:21and it is going to be all your fault!

0:27:21 > 0:27:24- Shh, babe, shh! Shh, shh, shh! - SHE SOBS

0:27:24 > 0:27:26Caz? It's Ruhma.
