0:00:39 > 0:00:40I promise you they're accurate.
0:00:40 > 0:00:44Fine-tooth comb, Ollie. If you've botched this research, arses will be kicked.
0:00:44 > 0:00:45I'm back.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48- Back running Holbycare? - Yep, Holbycare needs me.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50I don't understand.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54Well, it's simple. You've achieved the highest score in the region.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Guys, you might want to tone down the lovey-dovey stuff.
0:00:57 > 0:01:01It doesn't bother me but when patients start commenting,
0:01:01 > 0:01:04- it just looks a bit unprofessional. - Of course.
0:01:04 > 0:01:05I've quit twice before
0:01:05 > 0:01:08and the last time, they let me onto F1 course,
0:01:08 > 0:01:11ONLY because Mr Hope wrote a letter.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Well, at least until six o'clock you are my F1
0:01:13 > 0:01:17and, right now, I could really use your help on AAU.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21All right, new rule, from now we tie the beast down.
0:01:21 > 0:01:22Or follow the trail of vomit.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24- Oh, I see him.- Where?
0:01:24 > 0:01:26- He's there by the by the bus stop. - I don't see him.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29- Yeah, you need glasses. - I do not need glasses.- Oh-oh!
0:01:29 > 0:01:31- No, no, no. I am not running! - Trousers too tight?
0:01:31 > 0:01:33No, he's just scared we'll beat him.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35Girls, there's no way you'll beat me!
0:01:35 > 0:01:37All right, Nathan, take it easy, we're here.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40- Get off me, man!- Lie still. - You're assaulting me! Get off me!
0:01:40 > 0:01:42- Nathan, just listen... - Where's my shirt?- All right, look,
0:01:42 > 0:01:45we need to find out if the broken rib has caused any internal damage.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48- Who's nicked my shirt? - You were sick on it, man!
0:01:48 > 0:01:51You see this bruising? This is not good... Oh, fantastic!
0:01:51 > 0:01:54All right Nathan, just relax.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57Go with it. You're having a fit because you have some trapped air - he's got a pneumothorax.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00Yeah, we're going to need a needle.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03Marrow badges for the girl scouts
0:02:03 > 0:02:06- but I've already called the crash team.- You spoil sport!
0:02:10 > 0:02:12All right, all right, all right!
0:02:12 > 0:02:14- OK, we need a chest drain, diazepam...- Out of the way, please!
0:02:14 > 0:02:17- ..and a round of Americanos. - Don't look at me! Excuse me.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20- Forget it!- One of you needs to suck up to the boss!
0:02:20 > 0:02:23- Bar code side up. It's nuts but...- Thanks.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26- Are you the new locum?- Yes. Sorry, I've been stuck with HR.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28All right, well, this is Nathan.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31He made a faux pas during the best man's speech and paid the price.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32We're still investigating
0:02:32 > 0:02:35but I've got a sneaky suspicion an excess of alcohol might be at play.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38Yes, I have an instinct, you may be right.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41- Crumbs, pneumothorax! - Yeah, you got it in one.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44OK, I'll need 20mg Lignocaine, drapes and a chest drain.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48Hello, Nathan, I'm Ms Broadhurst.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51I'm going to get you breathing by making a cut in your side.
0:02:53 > 0:02:54OK, thanks.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Look, this might sting a little, OK?
0:03:01 > 0:03:03HE GROANS
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Well done.
0:03:05 > 0:03:06Knife?
0:03:06 > 0:03:09- Nathan, if you don't want to see this, close your eyes now. - Frieda, come here.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13- F1, F2?- Two, just.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15- Put your finger here... - Yeah, I know.- Thanks.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24- Now?- Nope. Five, four, three, two, go.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32GURGLING
0:03:34 > 0:03:35We got the lift off.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40- Thanks.- You're welcome.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Well, that was a good work, team.
0:03:42 > 0:03:46Tell you what, instead of a bonus or pay rise...Americanos are on me.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48- What's your name?- Alex. - Welcome to the team.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Right, shall we start again?
0:03:51 > 0:03:53Hello, I'm Alex. Know you're Frieda, you, Senior Nurse?
0:03:53 > 0:03:57Yeah, Nurse McKee, and Michael Spence is our clinical lead.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00- Really? Officially?- Isn't he?
0:04:01 > 0:04:02Who knows.
0:04:04 > 0:04:05Thanks.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Hey, Jac, you dyed your hair? Looking lovely!
0:04:09 > 0:04:12- She's had this room bugged, you know that?- C'mon, need you air-side.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Sorry, research day - I'm surrounded by an invisible force field.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Lots of sexy cases...
0:04:17 > 0:04:19Heart attacks, angina...am I reeling you in?
0:04:19 > 0:04:23- She warned me you'd do this. - Spell checking? You'll be licking the stamp next.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26I will indeed, the deadline is tomorrow.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Tomorrow?! Then you've NO excuse - come on, arriba!
0:04:29 > 0:04:32Look, honestly, I would but I said it I'd get it in early.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36Only the lame get homework in early, or nominate themselves for awards.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39- The award's her idea, not mine. - Are you scared, little boy?
0:04:39 > 0:04:42- Do we need to ring ChildLine?- I've sweated my guts out over this...
0:04:42 > 0:04:45- Buying coffees and giving her foot rubs?!- No, this is proper research!
0:04:45 > 0:04:49Come on, I've got an AF that needs an ablation.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51If you help me...
0:04:51 > 0:04:53I'll let you hold my scalpel.
0:04:53 > 0:04:54Not enough.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58- I'll let you DO the ablation.- Really?
0:04:58 > 0:05:02Think. What would your mentor Jac Naylor do?
0:05:05 > 0:05:08- I suppose it could wait a couple of hours.- Good boy!
0:05:09 > 0:05:12Can I ruffle your hair?
0:05:12 > 0:05:13'Very quiet, she is.'
0:05:13 > 0:05:15I'll chat with you, LLeucu.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Just saying. I think it's the shock.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19Good job she got on the hard shoulder.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21- Ha, don't pretend we don't all love a pile up!- Do we have notes?
0:05:21 > 0:05:22Only ED's -
0:05:22 > 0:05:26St James' are faxing the rest over when they're not, "on lunch".
0:05:26 > 0:05:27Go on.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33Good afternoon, Miss Stephens, I'm Dr Valentine, this is Mr Douglas.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36- Hello.- Narrow escape, well done for getting off the road.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38I could feel it coming on.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42OK, just looking at what you told ED, you've had AF for, what?
0:05:42 > 0:05:45A year, mainly palpitations.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48OK, and the blackout's are a new symptom?
0:05:50 > 0:05:53- You know we're going to operate? - Yeah, when will that be?
0:05:53 > 0:05:55Nudged you a place at close of play.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00- Is that OK? - I didn't think it'd be today.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03Going to get it over and done with, now you're here.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05OK.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Is there anyone we can call for you?
0:06:07 > 0:06:11Erm...no, thank you. That's fine.
0:06:11 > 0:06:15- I'll be down around five, OK? - Erm...OK.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21- Bloods and ECG, yeah?- Shouldn't I talk her through the procedure?
0:06:21 > 0:06:24- Changed my mind, I'm going to do it. - What?! You promised!
0:06:24 > 0:06:27Did Jac not teach you? Trust no-one.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33- This makes me a good boss, OK?- Why? - Hanssen's called me into a meeting
0:06:33 > 0:06:36and I'm buying you off in case he asks for the 360 feedback.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39- You know, where you witches get to stick the knife in?- Yeah.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41That explains the tight trousers.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44You know, you looking professional and all?
0:06:44 > 0:06:47SHE LAUGHS
0:06:47 > 0:06:48Where's the locum?
0:06:49 > 0:06:53Oh, typical. Last ones to rock in, first ones to tip out.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55- What's Hemmingway doing anyway? Fishing?- No.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58He's paintballing with some stem cell geeks.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00What?
0:07:01 > 0:07:03It's my job to know everything!
0:07:03 > 0:07:06- I'm going to kill you, you've RUINED my wedding!- I wasn't trying to!
0:07:06 > 0:07:10- What did you say it for, Nathan? Eh? What did you say it for? - Come on, hang on, enough!
0:07:10 > 0:07:13- It was a joke, all right? It got out of hand.- Out of hand?
0:07:13 > 0:07:17All right, Eddi, let's get him into the side room. YOU need to sober up!
0:07:17 > 0:07:19- Look at my dress. It cost me a grand, this did!- Be all right,
0:07:19 > 0:07:22stick a bit of bleach on that, you can put it on eBay.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24- You need to get this hand looked at first.- Let's get her hand sutured.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Just, please tell me, did he sleep with her?
0:07:26 > 0:07:29- SHOUTS:- Did he sleep with her? - All right, enough! Enough!
0:07:29 > 0:07:32Not exactly dreaming spires
0:07:32 > 0:07:35- but never a dull moment. - Setting my expression to "unfazed".
0:07:35 > 0:07:39- Good to be back in the cut and thrust?- One always needs case studies.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42Mr Spence, I do apologise, I wasn't here for the introductions.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45No, we're one step ahead of you, I've already met our locum registrar.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48Yes, I think there's been a little confusion here.
0:07:48 > 0:07:53Ms Broadhurst is a consultant, she's not Mr Hemmingway's temporary cover.
0:07:53 > 0:07:57- Although, like him, she is a fellow. - Right.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00Well, you should've said something. Another faculty nerd, huh?
0:08:00 > 0:08:03It really is not a huge deal, I'm not mad on formalities.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05I just thought I should double-check with...
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Avoid any embarrassment, crossed wires.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10Of course.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13And, as usual, it's entirely HR's fault.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15- I'll see you at half past one. - Absolutely.
0:08:19 > 0:08:20All right. Be right back.
0:08:21 > 0:08:26- So, bloods have gone down, ECG... - INR?- I'll do that next.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29And a coffee and a foot rub would be lovely!
0:08:29 > 0:08:31I want to do that ablation.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33- No, you're not ready yet. - Of course I'm ready.- Ahh!
0:08:33 > 0:08:35- And you know this how...? - Ring Jac, ask her.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38Are you sleeping with her?
0:08:38 > 0:08:41- Look, I'm not a junior F1 anymore. - I know that.
0:08:41 > 0:08:45She seems a bit prickly, we should probably not unleash a newbie on her. You can assist.
0:08:47 > 0:08:48No, it's not worth my while.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52- Got to meet my deadline by five. - Come on, don't cut your nose off.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55- Can you do any earlier? - Plans for this afternoon.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58I actually have a life!
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Going to see a pension's adviser.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03- Come on, I've been putting it off. - Pensions adviser?!
0:09:03 > 0:09:05- It's the only time he could do. - Oh, thanks a lot!
0:09:05 > 0:09:08- You want me to die penniless and alone in a gutter?- Hm, thinks, "What would Naylor do?"
0:09:12 > 0:09:15Hey! Hey, don't do that!
0:09:16 > 0:09:21- I need to get my shirt on.- Look, I'm going to say this to you in words of one syllable so that you understand.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23It is not SAFE for you to go.
0:09:23 > 0:09:27- AMERICAN ACCENT:- OK, but it's not SAFE for me to stay...
0:09:27 > 0:09:29Lie down.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Come on, lie down. Look, bruise's getting worse.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34It's my brother. He's a psycho, he's going to kill me!
0:09:34 > 0:09:35He's not going to kill you.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38- I'M going to kill you! - Kelly, I told you, enough is enough.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41- Just tell me the truth, Nathan. - Kel, I made it up for a laugh.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43- Why'd he beat you up then? - Cos he's a nutcase.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45- You know they arrested him?- No.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47Yeah, they did. It's not going to be bail, is it? Not this time.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51- There you go, now you can stick around.- Look where I'm spending my wedding night, Nathan.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54- You've slept in worse places than this.- That supposed to be a joke?
0:09:54 > 0:09:58Just having a laugh, all right? Stop taking yourself so seriously! Get a sense of humour.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01- Have you seen my dress. Look at it. - It doesn't matter.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04You look amazing.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11OK, well, maybe YOU can convince him to stick around.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14I don't care what he does.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18- How's he doing?- Moving gently from aggression to remorse.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Oh, the hangover is going to be tremendous!
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Boozed-up Britain, how I've missed thee!
0:10:23 > 0:10:26- Where've you been before then, Alex? - Just home.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29- I've had a sort of career break. - Yeah, kids? I've got four.
0:10:29 > 0:10:30No, I was writing a book...
0:10:30 > 0:10:33No, that sounds too grand, I was updating a textbook!
0:10:33 > 0:10:36Oh, my goodness! Felix and Broadhurst?
0:10:36 > 0:10:40- That's the one, available in all highly specialised medical bookshops.- That's my bible.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42Ah!
0:10:44 > 0:10:46Nathan's x-rays are back...
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Which consultant would you like me to give them to?
0:10:49 > 0:10:52Well, which consultant brought you coffee?
0:10:53 > 0:10:57- This might sting a bit. - Oh, it's fine.
0:10:59 > 0:11:04- Where were you going?- I'm sorry? - Where were you driving to?
0:11:05 > 0:11:06Nowhere really.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Just have a little squeeze on that for me.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16- So, you're taking the meds OK? - Which meds?
0:11:16 > 0:11:19For your heart. Are you on other ones?
0:11:19 > 0:11:23- Not really.- You should tell me if you are.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28I'm on sleeping pills and anti-depressants.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32- Right. Do you know what they're called?- They're in my bag.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46- Can I have that?- Of course.
0:11:53 > 0:11:57Miss Stephens, we're having trouble locating your notes from St James's.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Can I just check the spelling, is it with a V or a Ph?
0:11:59 > 0:12:02They could be under Gunn. Michelle Gunn.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05- OK, we'll try that. Any previous surgery?- Does a caesarean count?
0:12:05 > 0:12:09- Did you have an epidural? - No, general.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12The baby was born asleep.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15Oh, I'm sorry for your trouble.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19- So no adverse reaction to the anaesthetic?- No, none.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24I'm sorry, he's really busy.
0:12:24 > 0:12:28Don't worry... I'm used to it.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Street crossers.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32The baby's...?
0:12:36 > 0:12:39You're the first person to actually ask me that you know.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44When did it happen?
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Now there's the thing.
0:12:49 > 0:12:54365 days.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58- KNOCK ON DOOR - Come in.
0:12:58 > 0:12:59Ah, good.
0:12:59 > 0:13:02Would you mind casting an eye over this?
0:13:06 > 0:13:08- Is this a joke?- No.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Have we listed all the core competencies?
0:13:10 > 0:13:13That's the question and I thought you'd be the perfect person to ask.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16Why are you giving me my own job description?
0:13:16 > 0:13:18Right, I don't wish to humiliate you
0:13:18 > 0:13:21but you do realise that you're not technically clinical lead?
0:13:21 > 0:13:24Well, I WAS under the assumption that I was already in the role.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Acting as clinical lead is not the same as being clinical lead, is it?
0:13:30 > 0:13:34OK...and how is advertising the post, not meant to be humiliating?
0:13:34 > 0:13:36That is indeed regrettable.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40Of late HR have surpassed themselves in their inability to communicate.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42- I will take it up at directorate level.- No, it's all right.
0:13:42 > 0:13:46Just give me a heads up how long this slow revenge is going to take.
0:13:46 > 0:13:52One of the cornerstones of the new ethos is transparency.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54All jobs will be advertised and recruited
0:13:54 > 0:13:57- against measurable criteria.- You kept a straight-face, impressive.
0:13:57 > 0:14:01- Well, it is to your advantage. - Stop, it's all right, I get it.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04- You're shafting me in favour of the new girl?- No, no, no.
0:14:04 > 0:14:08This appointment will be made on how well you match these magic bullets.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Not on your disgraceful recent past.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13OK.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20- Well, you've only missed one core competency.- Oh?
0:14:20 > 0:14:24Ability to deal with people who are a complete pain in the ass.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29Wow, six bedrooms!
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Better get a move on if you're going to fill those.
0:14:31 > 0:14:35- Oh, I don't think that's on the cards.- You never know.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38- Carolyn Northcotte with the foot spa?- Yes.
0:14:38 > 0:14:43- How we going?- Just warming her up for you.- Less of your sauce, please, Mary-Claire.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45- Sorry?- Just give her some of that Dublin charm.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48I'm from Belfast.
0:14:48 > 0:14:52Well, just give her your lovely smile - defrost her in no time.
0:14:55 > 0:14:59- Was he just flirting with me? - I don't think so.- He was!
0:14:59 > 0:15:00Big time!
0:15:01 > 0:15:04- Sorry.- Don't mind me.
0:15:05 > 0:15:10Hello there, I'm Mr Hamilton, the Orthopaedic Consultant.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12That a St Ainsworth top, is it?
0:15:12 > 0:15:15- Guilty as charged.- My brother was there, in the '50s.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18Small world. How's the pedicure?
0:15:21 > 0:15:23It's gangrene, isn't it?
0:15:26 > 0:15:29He gave you a pay rise and a company car?
0:15:34 > 0:15:36- Internal bleeding?- Hard to say.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38Bruising is spreading a little but without the CT scans...
0:15:38 > 0:15:40All right, he's going to need a splenectomy.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42Eddi, let's cancel some old ladies hip replacement
0:15:42 > 0:15:44and get this drunk guy a slot.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Bit drastic, going straight for the nuclear button?
0:15:48 > 0:15:51Oh, I've seen this hundreds of times.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54- GA with query head injury? - There's no head injury.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57Not that we can see but he seems disorientated, confused speech...
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Yeah, he's been drinking.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01OK, GA with query excess alcohol consumption?
0:16:01 > 0:16:04We could give it a chance to wear off, wait for the results?
0:16:04 > 0:16:08So, are you asking me or you're telling me?
0:16:08 > 0:16:11- I'm debating with you.- All right, you win, let's do it your way.
0:16:11 > 0:16:15- I'm not saying do it my way, I'm just..- Eddi, cancel that.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17What? I've just shouted at them!
0:16:17 > 0:16:20It's not about winning is it? It's just a difference of opinion.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23Hmm, absolutely. It's completely academic, nothing personal.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30- We need to bring the ablation forward.- Why?
0:16:30 > 0:16:32- She needs to be awake at 5.00.- Why?
0:16:32 > 0:16:36OK, I know it sounds morbid but it's the anniversary of her daughter's death and she needs to mark it.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38- The exact moment?- Yeah.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40- This some Naylor lie to get your own way?- Oh, get lost.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45Sorry...I promised her that we'd try.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47- That's daft.- I think it's psychologically important.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50- We can't bring it forward.- I can do it, you can do your own thing.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53Now, that really is channelling spirit of Jac Naylor.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55That isn't fair, I'm trying to make a compromise.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57You get your pension, she gets through...
0:16:57 > 0:17:01- You know, a major milestone in the grieving process. - You patronising me?- No.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04Don't make promises you don't know you can keep.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07We've not completed the pre-op assessment,
0:17:07 > 0:17:10- going by this the INR result.- So, we bring it down, as soon as we can.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12Yes, but by the time the FFP's defrosted
0:17:12 > 0:17:15- we might as well keep to the same slot.- OK, so, use vitamin K.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18Whoa, quite the hungry cub, aren't we?
0:17:18 > 0:17:21I said FFP, I meant FFP.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23I'm just trying to do the right thing here.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26Yeah, all about the patient, obviously.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31The good news is you don't have an infection of the bone.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34- But the toes might drop off. - Not necessarily.
0:17:34 > 0:17:39Possibly some flesh on the tip is frostbitten but with antibiotics.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42Damned stables, so draughty!
0:17:42 > 0:17:44I've been sleeping in there with the horses.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Ready Eddie has a new foal - quite literally a MARE! Ha-ha!
0:17:47 > 0:17:51- Sleeping outside in February? - Yes! Plenty of hay.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54It's good enough for the dogs, it's good enough for me.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57Right, well, it might be time to come inside.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59- Righto.- Do you have anyone at home who can help?
0:17:59 > 0:18:01You mean staff?
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Yes.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06- It's getting harder and harder to get good people.- Great.
0:18:06 > 0:18:10- Well, with the right homecare and medication...- You'll let me out?
0:18:10 > 0:18:12- If that's what you want.- Splendid!
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Did you not notice the symptoms? Pins and needles?
0:18:18 > 0:18:21I ignored it.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23Assumed it was a stroke!
0:18:24 > 0:18:25'Stop worrying about it!'
0:18:25 > 0:18:28- Do I have a reputation or something?- No!
0:18:28 > 0:18:32I don't think he meant anything by it, he was just joking.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35Well, let's see how he likes it, shall we?
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Let's see who's joking.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40I can't promise anything, but if this levels out
0:18:40 > 0:18:42I'll try and sort something, get you in there early.
0:18:42 > 0:18:47I don't want you to, you know, cancel a cancer patient or whatever.
0:18:47 > 0:18:51I won't. With any luck, this'll kick in.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54- What is it?- Vitamin K.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59There we go, 2.9. It's working already.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03I appreciate the effort. Thanks.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08- These things are important. - Yeah.
0:19:10 > 0:19:14One day you're big and fat and everyone loves you...
0:19:15 > 0:19:20..next you're...well, all you have is this.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25How do you plan to mark it?
0:19:25 > 0:19:29Alone...in the car park at Mumbury Services.
0:19:30 > 0:19:35I don't mean with a pipe in the exhaust. It's just...
0:19:35 > 0:19:37I like the anonymity.
0:19:38 > 0:19:45And once, when I was there, worrying cos I hadn't felt any movement.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48She kicked and reassured me.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54Must be tough dealing with this by yourself.
0:19:54 > 0:20:00I just feel, if I can get through it, stare it in the eye,
0:20:00 > 0:20:01maybe...
0:20:03 > 0:20:06Maybe not. I don't know...
0:20:06 > 0:20:08All right, there you go, punctured lung.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10Right, interesting.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12What about the abdo scan?
0:20:12 > 0:20:15- As I said, ruptured spleen.- Ouch.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- That's quite some beating! - So, can I take him to theatre now?
0:20:18 > 0:20:22I wasn't stopping you, I don't see that as my role at all.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26- All right, Eddi, apparently, we're back on.- Are we now?
0:20:26 > 0:20:28What about the head scan?
0:20:28 > 0:20:31Look, even if there is a head injury, the risks are small.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34In all probability but why not have the paper trail? Save on legal fees.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37- Nathan Savage...- There you go. Took you, what, two hours?
0:20:37 > 0:20:40- I'm sorry?- Dig about plastics?
0:20:40 > 0:20:42- I'm lost.- It's Darwin.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45Are we going to theatre or not...?
0:20:46 > 0:20:48Up to you.
0:20:48 > 0:20:52There is some dead tissue but I'm starting her on flucloxacillin,
0:20:52 > 0:20:55- sending her home, we'll reconvene in a few days.- Home?!
0:20:55 > 0:20:58- Well, it could be months, couldn't it?- Why don't you just amputate?
0:20:58 > 0:21:00- Er...because...- Save time?
0:21:00 > 0:21:03Right, why don't I just give her a pair of crutches as well?
0:21:03 > 0:21:05Save time in case she breaks her ankle?
0:21:05 > 0:21:08Look, she's going to go back out there, on nights like these?
0:21:08 > 0:21:12- Be wheeled in before the weekend. Paramedic's going to love you!- What?!
0:21:12 > 0:21:15Ah. You know she's the woman camped outside the cathedral?
0:21:16 > 0:21:18What, the bag lady?
0:21:18 > 0:21:21- She's not a bag lady. She's just protesting against, erm...- War.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25- Yeah, I know, I've seen the signs. Nutter!- Ah, fair play to her.
0:21:25 > 0:21:29Come on, it's ridiculous! "Look at me, I'm against the war!"
0:21:29 > 0:21:33- Whatever.- You might as well say, "I'm against death and disease."
0:21:33 > 0:21:35Isn't that what we are against?
0:21:35 > 0:21:38- Well, you know what I mean. - OK, fair enough.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41But she's going to go back out there, you'll have non-compliance on meds
0:21:41 > 0:21:43and by the weekend it'll be necrotising flesh,
0:21:43 > 0:21:48which means I'll be called in on Saturday to deal with it!
0:21:48 > 0:21:52- Sorry, am I interrupting? - Kind of.- Just a quick question.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55Do you want to go out with me?
0:21:55 > 0:21:58- Sorry?- Do you want to go out with me? Or were you making flirty chat
0:21:58 > 0:22:01- because I'm a nurse? - Course I wasn't!
0:22:01 > 0:22:03- So do you want to go out with me?- Er...
0:22:06 > 0:22:09- OK.- OK.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12- How about the weekend?- Ahh.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Playing golf up north.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Well, I can't do tomorrow night, so it'll have to be tonight.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27- Get lost, Malick.- Sorry.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30Forgot you're so far in the closet you're in Narnia.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33- Medication. - Amputate.- Nope.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35She'll comply.
0:22:35 > 0:22:39- Everyone reverts to the norm in the end.- Do they?
0:22:41 > 0:22:45OK, Thursday at ten? OK, fine then, we'll stick with later today, thank you.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48Jeez, like booking an appointment with the Queen!
0:22:48 > 0:22:53- Can't you find someone else? - Sahira said this guy was the best. ALARM SOUNDS
0:22:53 > 0:22:56SCREAMING AND CRYING
0:22:58 > 0:23:00It's my leg!
0:23:00 > 0:23:04Could've told me before the wedding.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Was it just the one nighter or...?
0:23:07 > 0:23:10She stayed with him every night we were there, Kel.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13Well, thanks for telling me... and all my friends and family.
0:23:13 > 0:23:18- I'm so sorry. - Like I said, I know what he's like.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23He's different from you.
0:23:25 > 0:23:30- Hey, excuse me, we have your test results.- Bad or...
0:23:30 > 0:23:35Well, it's not fantastic but it is something that we can deal with. You have ruptured your spleen
0:23:35 > 0:23:37and I'd like to perform an operation to get it out.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40- What's the spleen again? - It's part of the immune system.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44- What, and I don't need that, no? - Well, ideally you do
0:23:44 > 0:23:47but if we leave it and it bleeds out, can be pretty serious.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49- Well, get him in there then, soon as.- You reckon?
0:23:49 > 0:23:52- Well, yeah, it's the best thing, right?- I think so.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54I mean, I know it sounds extreme but...
0:23:56 > 0:23:58I should go.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01Unless...you want me to stay?
0:24:01 > 0:24:06I've ruined enough of your day. You ain't got to sit with me.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14Is there no other way?
0:24:14 > 0:24:16I feel like I've had an op already.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18Well, you don't have to do anything. It's just my opinion.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21Can I have something for my headache?
0:24:21 > 0:24:24Yeah, Paracetamol. It's usually the best thing for a hangover.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27Apart from not drinking of course.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30Well, needed a bit of Dutch courage, didn't I?
0:24:30 > 0:24:34Still didn't tell her, though.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38Well, you do have 20 minutes before you go in so...
0:24:38 > 0:24:40Nah, I've got no chance.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45- Really? - Yeah, she's not interested in me.
0:24:45 > 0:24:49- She's married him now, in't she?- It ain't over till the fat lady sings.
0:24:49 > 0:24:53I know you've had the crap kicked out of you and she's signed on the dotted line
0:24:53 > 0:24:58but...I don't know, it seems to me it could be all still to play for.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01- Trust me.- That's weird.
0:25:01 > 0:25:05I don't want to say it but you might be on to something there. See? They never had their first dance.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07You know what it was going to be?
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Adele.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11HE LAUGHS
0:25:11 > 0:25:13Yeah, all right. Exactly.
0:25:13 > 0:25:17Well... The nurse is going to be by to harass you soon.
0:25:18 > 0:25:23- Think the antibiotics are kicking in.- Good-o!
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Didn't recognise you without the banners.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28Sorry...it was the rugger top.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31Brought out an insatiable desire to tease.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34Do you plan on returning to your al fresco lifestyle?
0:25:34 > 0:25:36- As soon as you sign me out, Sergeant.- Right.
0:25:36 > 0:25:41I'm don't think you've absorbed the dangers of allowing this to continue-
0:25:41 > 0:25:44Lose the tip toes. That's my Nutcracker days over then!
0:25:44 > 0:25:48If it spreads you could lose the leg, or be killed by the infection!
0:25:48 > 0:25:50Well, how do we stop it spreading?
0:25:50 > 0:25:54Inside, wrapped in blankets till at least July.
0:25:54 > 0:25:58Fine. Amputate then.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00- Get it over and done with! - You'd rather lose a leg
0:26:00 > 0:26:03than pursue a course of minimal self-care?
0:26:03 > 0:26:05I'm needed.
0:26:05 > 0:26:10I'll find some kind of Japanese technology duvet.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13- You don't think all this is rather pointless?- No.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17Come on, no-one's pro-war - it's a false position!
0:26:17 > 0:26:19Why is there so much of it then?
0:26:19 > 0:26:22I just don't see how sitting outside, at your age...
0:26:22 > 0:26:24I grew up with everything.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27We had everything. Now I live in a tent.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30Hardly a sacrifice compared with giving up your life
0:26:30 > 0:26:33- for your country.- Exactly. EXACTLY!
0:26:33 > 0:26:38If they ask that every time they walk past I'm doing something.
0:26:38 > 0:26:43Not saying the answer but raising the question.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49Odd, DVT.
0:26:49 > 0:26:53Lleucu, can we get her on the heparin please, thank you.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56- Any ideas?- Could be a reaction to the vitamin K.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58- Did we not do FFP then? - I...thought...
0:26:58 > 0:27:00OK, this might be quicker, how much did you give her?
0:27:00 > 0:27:02- Nothing drastic 2.5.- Sure?
0:27:02 > 0:27:04- Yes! I'm not an idiot. - No, cos it's worked brilliantly(!)
0:27:04 > 0:27:07- There's no way we could've known. - We thought we'd experiment?
0:27:07 > 0:27:09It wasn't a risky call, you know that.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12- Sorry, Professor Valentine, I forgot about your...- Will you stop making fun of me?
0:27:12 > 0:27:15- No, you messed up, so expect mickey taking.- That's all you ever do!
0:27:15 > 0:27:18- This could happened to anyone. - Yeah, but you did it.
0:27:18 > 0:27:22- So, go on away and apply for your award.- NO! I want to be in on this.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25Just because you WANT something, doesn't change anything.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27See, I'm a life coach. Who needs Naylor?
0:27:41 > 0:27:44- Don't believe everything you read. - Of course not.
0:27:46 > 0:27:47It's just odd...
0:27:47 > 0:27:50because Mr Hanssen led me to believe he was something of the golden boy.
0:27:50 > 0:27:55- I had no idea. - Really?- Maybe I misconstrued.
0:27:56 > 0:28:01Well, Mr Spence is an egomaniac but essentially, deep down...
0:28:01 > 0:28:05Heart is in the right place? Exactly, same with most of us. Otherwise I suppose
0:28:05 > 0:28:09- we'd've become bankers. - Not necessarily. Not the mega bucks I'm on!
0:28:09 > 0:28:11How long are you with us?
0:28:11 > 0:28:14I mean, how long are you on acute admissions?
0:28:14 > 0:28:16Oh, well, actually today is my last day. Surprise.
0:28:16 > 0:28:18Goodness.
0:28:18 > 0:28:21- Oh, that's a shame. Where are you off to?- Haven't decided yet.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23Get yourself up to General Surgery. Keller, is it?
0:28:23 > 0:28:27Huge brush strokes at this stage, be amazing experience.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29Yeah, maybe.
0:28:29 > 0:28:32- I'll think about it. - No time to lose, by the sound of it.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35What's the problem, do you need a consultant to put a call in?
0:28:35 > 0:28:37Anything I can do to help ?
0:28:37 > 0:28:42No, I'm fine. I'll sort it but thanks for the offer.
0:28:46 > 0:28:50Can we get Mr Savage prepped for theatre? He's good to go.
0:28:53 > 0:28:56- SHE COUGHS - What's happening?!
0:28:56 > 0:28:58Don't try and talk, OK?
0:28:58 > 0:29:00OK, the clot has moved up to your lung.
0:29:00 > 0:29:04I'm going to operate to remove it and do the ablation at the same time?
0:29:04 > 0:29:06I know it's scary, just calm down. I'll be with you, OK?
0:29:06 > 0:29:10- Call a theatre and get me an assistant.- Not Dr Valentine?- No, someone with more experience.
0:29:10 > 0:29:12We're going to do this now
0:29:12 > 0:29:14so you can be awake in time for your...thing, OK?
0:29:14 > 0:29:18Lleucu, can you cancel my pension meeting?
0:29:19 > 0:29:20SHE GASPS
0:29:24 > 0:29:28- OK, Nathan, this is where you need to sign.- It seems like a challenging self-care regime
0:29:28 > 0:29:32- but the majority of patients get used to it pretty quickly.- Used to what?
0:29:32 > 0:29:35You're aware you'll be on medication for life after the operation?
0:29:35 > 0:29:37- No.- What about post-op risk,
0:29:37 > 0:29:41incidence of post-splenectomy infection, immunisations, etc?
0:29:41 > 0:29:43No, he never mentioned any of that.
0:29:43 > 0:29:47There seems to be some confusion over post-op complications?
0:29:47 > 0:29:51I was coming here to discuss it. Let's keep the fluids up.
0:29:51 > 0:29:55- May we?- Er, can I PLEASE have something for my headache?
0:29:55 > 0:29:59- Did you sustain a head injury? - Yeah, cobbles outside the pub.
0:30:01 > 0:30:03All right, we'll run a CT scan.
0:30:03 > 0:30:04Can I have a word?
0:30:05 > 0:30:09And when that comes back showing no problem, then you get off my back?
0:30:09 > 0:30:12- Why are you so suspicious of me? - Why d'you think?
0:30:12 > 0:30:14I have no idea - surely you're used to having peers?
0:30:14 > 0:30:17- Not ones that undermine me.- I wasn't.
0:30:17 > 0:30:20You manage that pretty well yourself by the sound of things.
0:30:20 > 0:30:22HOW is it my fault
0:30:22 > 0:30:25you neglected to tell him about the life-changing implications of your approach?
0:30:25 > 0:30:28Hey, I didn't NEGLECT to tell him, I was waiting until...
0:30:28 > 0:30:29He'd consented to your way?
0:30:29 > 0:30:32Until he had a chance to discuss some issues
0:30:32 > 0:30:35- that would affect his mood and therefore his judgement.- Well...
0:30:35 > 0:30:38You're obviously far more across the ins and outs of his personal life
0:30:38 > 0:30:41but...does he strike you as the type who could responsibly self-medicate
0:30:41 > 0:30:42for the rest of his life?
0:30:42 > 0:30:46Risk of non-compliance, risk of query head injury -
0:30:46 > 0:30:49- easily balances the level of bleeding at this stage.- Fine...
0:30:49 > 0:30:50..enough.
0:30:59 > 0:31:00PHONE RINGS
0:31:03 > 0:31:06Yes, I'm doing it now, you don't need to CHECK UP on me!
0:31:14 > 0:31:18This appears redder, I'd like to do another blood test.
0:31:18 > 0:31:20Infection?
0:31:20 > 0:31:22Well, if it'd been treated sooner...
0:31:22 > 0:31:25I let it fester and now it might kill me.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28- I don't mean to frighten you. - But you have.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33- I'm going to stay with my brother. - Good.
0:31:33 > 0:31:35He's over the moon.
0:31:35 > 0:31:40- He's been nagging me for ages to meet his ghastly grandchildren. - Well, the important thing
0:31:40 > 0:31:43is that you'll recover in a warm, familiar environment.
0:31:43 > 0:31:47All right, so take a look. No head injury, clearly just a stinking hangover.
0:31:47 > 0:31:49Let's take a look here.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51PATIENT CRIES OUT
0:31:51 > 0:31:54This bruising is getting much, much worse.
0:31:54 > 0:31:57We need to get him into theatre, agreed?
0:31:57 > 0:32:00No...I'm not sure. What do you think?
0:32:00 > 0:32:02Well, I agree with Mr Spence.
0:32:02 > 0:32:06- I think you should have the operation.- Can you do it?
0:32:06 > 0:32:09It's something I do perform
0:32:09 > 0:32:12but Mr Spence has been on your case, I think it's probably best he does.
0:32:12 > 0:32:15So, that's it? The decision has been made.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17- There's me thinking I had a choice? - HE CLEARS HIS THROAT
0:32:17 > 0:32:19All right, can we have a word, again?
0:32:19 > 0:32:22That's it, mate, go on. Have a little huddle up!
0:32:22 > 0:32:25- It's only me being sliced open here! - So now you change your mind?
0:32:25 > 0:32:29- Because my concern's been addressed and the bleeding's evidently got worse.- But you admit I was right?
0:32:29 > 0:32:33Can somebody just please tell me who is doing this operation?
0:32:33 > 0:32:37- We...- Well...I'll be happy to do it. Get stuck in day one.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39Apparently HR say I have to do a fire safety video first
0:32:39 > 0:32:41but I'm assuming that's a load of tosh?
0:32:41 > 0:32:44No, actually it's not. The Trust are pretty hot on that
0:32:44 > 0:32:48and you don't want to piss Hanssen off, bring on those legal fees.
0:32:51 > 0:32:53So...when we going in?
0:32:53 > 0:32:57- We're not, the littlest hobo is heading home.- Seriously?
0:32:57 > 0:32:59Back to the bosom of her family.
0:32:59 > 0:33:03Like I said, everyone reverts to type.
0:33:03 > 0:33:07Could you organise a taxi for Miss Northcotte? I want proof of delivery.
0:33:07 > 0:33:10- Please.- Sorry, please.
0:33:10 > 0:33:11Of course!
0:33:11 > 0:33:14So, where are we taking me tonight? Am I going to need a dress?
0:33:14 > 0:33:17- I don't mind. You choose. - I'm an old fashioned girl.
0:33:17 > 0:33:20Fine...Cafe St Malo.
0:33:20 > 0:33:23No, they poisoned me once.
0:33:23 > 0:33:26Right...La Cucina?
0:33:27 > 0:33:31- And you're paying of course?- Naturally.
0:33:31 > 0:33:33Because, this is a kind of a big deal for me.
0:33:33 > 0:33:37I would never do it on a first date.
0:33:37 > 0:33:39I wouldn't accept anything less.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48I know, I know, joke's on me.
0:33:48 > 0:33:52- It's fine.- OK, do it your way. Ignore it till it goes toxic.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00OK, you guys, let's speed this up, we've wasted enough time.
0:34:00 > 0:34:04- Bruising's engulfed the whole left side of the torso.- Terrific!
0:34:04 > 0:34:06I found her caution persuasive.
0:34:06 > 0:34:11Will one of you, please admit that I was 100% correct?
0:34:11 > 0:34:16It's in the shoes, right? I mean, you know he likes a woman in a heel.
0:34:16 > 0:34:19I do not judge a woman by her shoes because I'm not a woman.
0:34:19 > 0:34:22Fine. Personality clash then.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25- I like her.- Of course you do, she's a real charmer.
0:34:25 > 0:34:29- Really? - Will I be ill all the time?
0:34:29 > 0:34:32Not if you stick with the meds, no.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35- What if I do it wrong?- Obviously, non-compliance would be a problem.
0:34:35 > 0:34:37I don't want to be ill for the rest of my life.
0:34:37 > 0:34:41- Would you rather be dead?- Easy!- No!
0:34:41 > 0:34:43But I dunno if I can handle it.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46I'm on my own, if I get ill, there's no-one to look after me.
0:35:00 > 0:35:03Hey, we're ready to roll on the operation
0:35:03 > 0:35:06- but Nathan is having some doubts.- Right.
0:35:06 > 0:35:10- I guess you want to come with me, run through the options?- Me?
0:35:11 > 0:35:14- Yeah, you're his wife, right?- No!
0:35:14 > 0:35:17I'm married to his brother and he was the best man.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19How could you have missed the slanging match?
0:35:19 > 0:35:23Well, frankly kinda goes in one ear and out the other.
0:35:23 > 0:35:27You know, unless I'm mistaken, he did list YOU as next of kin, so...
0:35:27 > 0:35:29Did he?
0:35:29 > 0:35:33- Yeah, I'll double check but...- No, I don't think he wants to see me.
0:35:33 > 0:35:37Huh! Odd...all right, maybe I'm clueless.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40I thought he said Kelly, maybe it was Karen or Kerry or...
0:35:40 > 0:35:42It's not risky, is it? This op.
0:35:42 > 0:35:45Like, it's not going to be the last time I see him or...?
0:35:45 > 0:35:48Look, every operation carries an element of risk.
0:35:48 > 0:35:51Only way to reduce it down to zero is...
0:35:51 > 0:35:53Well, obvious.
0:35:58 > 0:36:00- How'd it go? - Pretty fascinating stuff, actually.
0:36:00 > 0:36:03- Is she going to be OK? - Yep, home in time for tea.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05Did you get your post away OK?
0:36:05 > 0:36:08- Yeah.- Lame-o. - Look, what is up with you?
0:36:08 > 0:36:11I know I miscalled this but this response
0:36:11 > 0:36:15- is totally disproportionate. - Did you practise saying that?
0:36:15 > 0:36:18I assumed you liked being bullied.
0:36:18 > 0:36:21Actually she doesn't. She respects me as a colleague.
0:36:21 > 0:36:22If you say so.
0:36:22 > 0:36:26- Have I done something? - No, just my time of the month.
0:36:33 > 0:36:36- Where's her bag? - Oh, good point. No idea.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42Why d'you put my name down?
0:36:43 > 0:36:46Just cos we're close now, aren't we? Family.
0:36:46 > 0:36:48I suppose.
0:36:50 > 0:36:54- Are you happy with that? - Yeah, I want us to be close.
0:36:54 > 0:36:57You know, even if we can't be anything more...
0:36:57 > 0:36:59So, what's the plan?
0:36:59 > 0:37:03He declares undying love, we operate, blah, blah, blah.
0:37:03 > 0:37:07- Intervention.- A nudge. - Highly unethical.
0:37:07 > 0:37:10Well, we all know that I'm an untrustworthy maverick
0:37:10 > 0:37:15- who tries to screw people over. - You know no-one thinks that, right?
0:37:17 > 0:37:19Just do it, stop being a baby.
0:37:23 > 0:37:26- How's it going?- Yeah, well, I've told him he's got to have it.
0:37:26 > 0:37:31- I do what I'm told.- Hey, that's marriage for you!- No, we're... - Don't worry, he ain't listening.
0:37:31 > 0:37:35- I'm going to change out of this now, I feel daft. - I like you better in your jeans.
0:37:35 > 0:37:40I've got jeans in my bag. Well, they was for the plane.
0:37:45 > 0:37:48So, did you confess all?
0:37:48 > 0:37:50Nah, chickened out again.
0:37:52 > 0:37:54You're going to HAVE to get me through this now.
0:38:05 > 0:38:08- What time is it?- Quarter to.
0:38:08 > 0:38:10- Where's...?- It's fine.
0:38:14 > 0:38:15She's been with me...
0:38:17 > 0:38:19Thank you.
0:38:22 > 0:38:25- Thank you, too.- Aw, nothing.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27You do most of the work, we just do the plumbing!
0:38:27 > 0:38:31No, I mean for bringing it forward.
0:38:31 > 0:38:35I know it wasn't exactly planned but...even just trying.
0:38:35 > 0:38:39- No worries. - Most people don't want to hear.
0:38:40 > 0:38:45- Thank you for asking me about it. - It's fine, no trouble.
0:38:46 > 0:38:49I guess doctors see a lot of death.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52Not so scared of it.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59I'll leave you alone for a bit.
0:39:01 > 0:39:02Actually...
0:39:04 > 0:39:06- ..can you stay?- Sure.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09Let me just pop these on the computer and I'll be straight back.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14Clips and ties, please.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18In fact, Dr Petrenko, do you want to have a go?
0:39:18 > 0:39:19Why you being so nice to me?
0:39:19 > 0:39:23I told you, just in case Hanssen asks you for any feedback.
0:39:23 > 0:39:28You know he told her you were, like, a top dog? Nothing about plastics?
0:39:28 > 0:39:32Like I said, she's a real charmer. Scissors.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39- BEEPING - BP's Falling.
0:39:39 > 0:39:42All right, continued bleeding.
0:39:42 > 0:39:45Come on, man, don't do this to me.
0:39:45 > 0:39:49- Got haemostasis? - It's swamped.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52OK, methodical, we're going to pack all four quadrants.
0:39:57 > 0:40:00OK, there is a capsular tear.
0:40:00 > 0:40:02It's running all the way towards the porta hepatis.
0:40:02 > 0:40:04- I'm going to need another pair of hands.- OK.
0:40:04 > 0:40:08- No, get me Ric.- He's in Gothenburg.
0:40:08 > 0:40:12All right, well, pull Hanssen out of whatever board meeting he's in.
0:40:12 > 0:40:17- It's going to take too long. - OK, all right.
0:40:17 > 0:40:194.0 Prolene, suction, swab on a stick.
0:40:27 > 0:40:31I can't see a thing! Come on, more suction, here!
0:40:31 > 0:40:33I can't see anything.
0:40:35 > 0:40:37Michael, it's not working.
0:40:40 > 0:40:42HE SIGHS Damn it!
0:40:42 > 0:40:45All right, get me Alex.
0:40:45 > 0:40:47Page Ms Broadhurst.
0:40:52 > 0:40:53Oh, it's a good one.
0:40:53 > 0:40:56- Just going to update my status with it.- Please, don't do that.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59You don't want to go public? Why not?
0:41:00 > 0:41:04- For God's sake, give it a rest! - Are you breaking up with me?
0:41:04 > 0:41:07What did I do to you?
0:41:07 > 0:41:09You publicly humiliated me.
0:41:09 > 0:41:11What! How?
0:41:11 > 0:41:13You flirted with me to make Chrissie jealous.
0:41:13 > 0:41:15Really, I didn't.
0:41:15 > 0:41:19- I'm not some kind of bike, you know? - I don't think that.
0:41:19 > 0:41:22I know your type, I can see straight through you.
0:41:22 > 0:41:25You'd never date a girl that you couldn't take home to mummy and daddy.
0:41:25 > 0:41:28Honestly, you might act like you're down with the kids
0:41:28 > 0:41:31but you are about as straight as they come!
0:41:32 > 0:41:33Right.
0:41:33 > 0:41:35Erm...
0:41:35 > 0:41:38How we doing with Miss Northcotte's discharge?
0:41:38 > 0:41:40Well, I contacted the brother
0:41:40 > 0:41:43and he said he hasn't spoken with her in years
0:41:43 > 0:41:47and that if she darkens his doorstep that he'll set the dogs on her.
0:41:50 > 0:41:53I think she was making fun with you?
0:41:59 > 0:42:00There's a tear in the liver.
0:42:00 > 0:42:04- Crumbs!- It's difficult to locate, need your help.- Absolutely.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06- Suction!- Getting stuck in on day one.
0:42:06 > 0:42:09Best way. 4.0 Prolene, please.
0:42:10 > 0:42:14- You got it?- Give me a chance, I just got here.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22Found you, little horror.
0:42:25 > 0:42:27Sutures.
0:42:32 > 0:42:35- You on him?- Yeah, got it.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50Stabilising.
0:42:50 > 0:42:52Many hands make light work.
0:42:54 > 0:42:58Good effort, team. As always, great teamwork.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03Is it now? I can't see...
0:43:07 > 0:43:08Yes.
0:43:14 > 0:43:16Time of death...
0:43:18 > 0:43:2017.04.
0:43:23 > 0:43:26I slept the whole way through.
0:43:26 > 0:43:27I never saw her.
0:43:30 > 0:43:31And then my heart broke.
0:43:37 > 0:43:40- Can I show you my book?- Of course.
0:43:41 > 0:43:43It's in my bag.
0:43:53 > 0:43:56I've not shown anyone that.
0:44:12 > 0:44:13It's lovely.
0:44:15 > 0:44:17PHONE RINGS
0:44:17 > 0:44:20I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, it's my boss, she's on my case.
0:44:20 > 0:44:22No, no, it's mine.
0:44:26 > 0:44:29- Who is it?- Ian?
0:44:29 > 0:44:31Really?
0:44:36 > 0:44:37Hello?
0:44:38 > 0:44:40Oh, thank you.
0:44:41 > 0:44:43Yes, I know.
0:44:44 > 0:44:48Erm...actually I'm in the hospital.
0:44:48 > 0:44:52You know the heart thing? It got worse.
0:44:52 > 0:44:55No, no, it's fine.
0:44:56 > 0:44:58I'm not on my own.
0:44:59 > 0:45:02OK. Bye.
0:45:07 > 0:45:09My husband.
0:45:15 > 0:45:19Entryism, learnt it in the '50s.
0:45:19 > 0:45:21Play along until you get your own way?
0:45:21 > 0:45:23People see what they want to see,
0:45:23 > 0:45:27"Yes, doctor, no, doctor, Three bags full doctor."
0:45:27 > 0:45:30There are ways of getting your point across.
0:45:30 > 0:45:33I'm a fundamentalist, I'm afraid.
0:45:33 > 0:45:37You're not going to keep you in here for three months.
0:45:37 > 0:45:40No, you're right. The infection's spread.
0:45:43 > 0:45:46- There's crepitus in the wound. - Is that the smell?
0:45:48 > 0:45:50Gas gangrene.
0:45:50 > 0:45:53We'll have to remove the infected muscle.
0:45:54 > 0:45:58- We might have to amputate below the knee.- OK.
0:45:58 > 0:46:02- OK?!- I'll get a false leg.
0:46:02 > 0:46:04- Or stilts!- Prosthesis have advanced in recent years
0:46:04 > 0:46:07but that's still MONTHS of recuperation and physio.
0:46:07 > 0:46:10Please understand how serious this is.
0:46:10 > 0:46:13Of course I do. You've seen them, haven't you?
0:46:13 > 0:46:16At the rehabilitation centres?
0:46:16 > 0:46:18Limbs blown off by IEDs?
0:46:18 > 0:46:20Yes, I have.
0:46:21 > 0:46:24So...if this is my war...
0:46:26 > 0:46:27..and this is the effect.
0:46:27 > 0:46:31What must real war be like?
0:46:33 > 0:46:35Just a question.
0:46:36 > 0:46:39BEEPING
0:46:42 > 0:46:47- What happened?- Cardiac tamponade. Almost certain.- Just like that?- Yup. - OK, let's clear theatre.
0:46:47 > 0:46:51No, not till we get a heartbeat. Shock 150, stay clear.
0:46:51 > 0:46:53- Wake up! Stand clear!- Sorry.
0:46:53 > 0:46:55150.
0:46:55 > 0:46:58No output. Shock again, 150. Stand clear.
0:46:58 > 0:47:00150.
0:47:02 > 0:47:05- No output.- Let's go anyway. - No, no point.
0:47:05 > 0:47:09- OK, we're good.- I'll page the locum. - Nope, I want you.
0:47:10 > 0:47:12Least I avoid a Saturday.
0:47:12 > 0:47:15I was trying a viable alternative to save a limb.
0:47:15 > 0:47:16It was never going to work.
0:47:16 > 0:47:21There's a strong principle that surgery should be a last resort.
0:47:21 > 0:47:24You should get a banner, set up outside the cathedral!
0:47:24 > 0:47:28If I thought that it would do any good.
0:47:28 > 0:47:30See what happens when you let things to fester?
0:47:30 > 0:47:34I dealt with the Mary-Claire situation rather well, I thought.
0:47:34 > 0:47:38- I'm not talking about Mary-Claire. - All right, point made.
0:47:38 > 0:47:41- What do you suggest I do? - Be true to yourself.
0:47:41 > 0:47:44"Be true to yourself", "no more war", "drop the debt",
0:47:44 > 0:47:48"fight the cuts", "troops in", "troops out", "it's all about oil".
0:47:48 > 0:47:52It's all talk and it annoys me. What do I actually do?
0:47:52 > 0:47:55- Come out.- No.
0:47:55 > 0:47:58I don't want a different life. I want what I have.
0:47:58 > 0:48:01My family, my friends, my career...
0:48:01 > 0:48:05- You can still have those things, it's not the '50s, Dan.- Really?
0:48:05 > 0:48:08- How many top surgeons are openly gay?- Apart from me?
0:48:08 > 0:48:11I mean senior guys. FRCS guys.
0:48:11 > 0:48:14Well, there's that ancient neurosurgeon dude,
0:48:14 > 0:48:15I'm swear he looked at me sly!
0:48:15 > 0:48:18What, the guy who did the lobotomies?
0:48:18 > 0:48:21- He was probably looking for a cure. - It's never held me back.
0:48:21 > 0:48:25It's less threatening in a black guy.
0:48:25 > 0:48:27You were never one of them in the first place.
0:48:32 > 0:48:34Quickly. Suction.
0:48:34 > 0:48:374.0 Prolene.
0:48:37 > 0:48:39How...? I mean, SO quickly?
0:48:39 > 0:48:42She isn't exactly strong as an ox is she?
0:48:42 > 0:48:43No.
0:48:43 > 0:48:45That's it.
0:48:47 > 0:48:51- BP's Rising.- Doesn't matter, been too long for the brain.
0:48:58 > 0:49:00No reaction.
0:49:10 > 0:49:11Ice.
0:49:11 > 0:49:13- Do it, ice.- No!
0:49:13 > 0:49:17- Therapeutic hypothermia.- No! - It will work.- Too untested!
0:49:17 > 0:49:18Bring her down to 33 degrees.
0:49:18 > 0:49:20No, NO, guinea pigging!
0:49:20 > 0:49:22- I promise you it'll work!- I haven't read it, I don't know it!
0:49:22 > 0:49:24Fine, let her die.
0:49:29 > 0:49:32- She doesn't stand a chance. - She stands a tiny chance. Please.
0:49:33 > 0:49:37OK, ring Naylor...ask her.
0:49:39 > 0:49:41Please.
0:49:43 > 0:49:44OK, let's do it.
0:49:50 > 0:49:52How was the safety course?
0:49:52 > 0:49:56Well, let's just say this was more interesting.
0:49:56 > 0:49:59It's a shame we didn't get him up here sooner.
0:50:05 > 0:50:09She helped you out and you don't even say thank you.
0:50:09 > 0:50:13- I said thank you.- I didn't see it. - Well, then you need glasses.
0:50:13 > 0:50:16Look, I'm sorry I didn't kiss her calculating ass.
0:50:16 > 0:50:19You misread her.
0:50:19 > 0:50:22She's genuinely interested in my career.
0:50:22 > 0:50:24Pretty naive for a cynic.
0:50:26 > 0:50:29It's just the end of my rotation.
0:50:29 > 0:50:31So you told her, why not me?
0:50:31 > 0:50:36I just kind of wanted to see if you would bother to find out. Now I have the answer.
0:50:40 > 0:50:45- So, where are we going from? - Knee down.
0:50:46 > 0:50:49- Reckon she'll give it up? - Nope.
0:50:50 > 0:50:54Reckon it'll take a nuclear winter to get her off the pitch.
0:50:54 > 0:50:58Stick to a position, even if it rots you from the inside.
0:51:01 > 0:51:03So, come on, all the guys want to know.
0:51:03 > 0:51:06You and Mary-Claire. She the one, is she?
0:51:06 > 0:51:10Not discussing my private life, sorry to disappoint, guys.
0:51:10 > 0:51:14What I do in my bedroom is all my business.
0:51:17 > 0:51:18Saw.
0:51:20 > 0:51:22BUZZING
0:51:22 > 0:51:25Orthopaedics. REAL men's work!
0:51:28 > 0:51:30Let's plug it in.
0:51:34 > 0:51:37OK, let's party. Talk me through this.
0:51:37 > 0:51:43If we can bring her down to 33, her brain might just recover.
0:51:43 > 0:51:48- Jeez, I can't believe we're doing this.- Pack it in tight here.
0:51:52 > 0:51:54OK...
0:51:54 > 0:51:58Now give her of 30ml four degrees cold saline per minute.
0:52:00 > 0:52:02Thermometer, please.
0:52:04 > 0:52:05What's the reading?
0:52:11 > 0:52:1333 degrees.
0:52:14 > 0:52:15What next?
0:52:18 > 0:52:19We wait.
0:52:37 > 0:52:39You look nice.
0:52:39 > 0:52:42Girls got me this on my hen do, it's all I had.
0:52:42 > 0:52:45Look even better in a smaller size!
0:52:45 > 0:52:48Don't need a spleen to be saucy then?
0:52:48 > 0:52:52So, you going to come round every night and cook me dinner till I'm better, or what?
0:52:52 > 0:52:54If I cook for you, you'll be back in here!
0:52:54 > 0:52:56THEY CHUCKLE
0:52:58 > 0:53:01I'm sorry I ruined your day.
0:53:01 > 0:53:07- It went good, bad and then good again.- Yeah, but...
0:53:07 > 0:53:09I should have said something before.
0:53:09 > 0:53:13You did though, didn't you? Just not with words.
0:53:13 > 0:53:14I tried.
0:53:17 > 0:53:20I feel daft in this.
0:53:20 > 0:53:24- Who wants to be the wife of a jailbird psycho?- Yeah.
0:53:24 > 0:53:25But, "Mrs Savage"...
0:53:27 > 0:53:30..that could be my wife's name too, couldn't it?
0:53:38 > 0:53:41No, it doesn't come with a foot rub.
0:53:55 > 0:53:56Sounded better on paper, maybe.
0:54:10 > 0:54:13Nice, you come down specially to rub it in?
0:54:13 > 0:54:16No, I came to wish Dr Petrenko well.
0:54:16 > 0:54:18You do know, I presume, it's the end of her rotation?
0:54:18 > 0:54:21Of course, I'm her boss.
0:54:21 > 0:54:23You buy the pins yourself?
0:54:23 > 0:54:25It does look old fashioned, I agree,
0:54:25 > 0:54:29but we might have an applicant without internet access, or something.
0:54:29 > 0:54:32Hm, a blind 90-year-old perhaps?
0:54:32 > 0:54:35As I said, it's an open field. Nothing is decided.
0:54:35 > 0:54:39Excuse me, do you mind if I interrupt for a minute?
0:54:39 > 0:54:42- You're the big boss man, yeah? - It's been rumoured.
0:54:42 > 0:54:46Give this bloke a pay rise. He's sorted my life out good and proper.
0:54:46 > 0:54:49Thank you, I'll bear your feedback in mind at appraisal time.
0:54:49 > 0:54:53- It was nothing. Splenectomy, went well.- No, it's not nothing.
0:54:53 > 0:54:55I am very pleased to see you back at the top of your game.
0:54:55 > 0:54:58How's Ms Broadhurst?
0:54:58 > 0:55:01Yeah, she's all right, barely saw her.
0:55:25 > 0:55:27INCREASING BEEPING
0:55:47 > 0:55:50I think you've done it.
0:55:55 > 0:55:57Yes!
0:56:04 > 0:56:07Ah, busted! Don't sneak off!
0:56:09 > 0:56:12- Why not?- Well, I organised leaving drinks for you in the bar.
0:56:12 > 0:56:16- It was supposed to be a surprise but...- No you didn't.
0:56:16 > 0:56:19Eddi wouldn't have gone to the gym. Eddi hates the gym.
0:56:21 > 0:56:27Oh! Yes, yes, fine. But, but, I did get you a present.
0:56:27 > 0:56:30- Really?- Hm-mm. Two tickets to La Boheme.
0:56:30 > 0:56:34Yeah, it's those opera tickets that you get in case you get a date.
0:56:34 > 0:56:36No, this would not be a date.
0:56:36 > 0:56:41- No, because you only date women under 25.- I do not! Lulu was 26.
0:56:44 > 0:56:48- All right, come on, what do you want? - Maybe cash for the value of the tickets?
0:56:48 > 0:56:49Sorry...
0:56:49 > 0:56:54Are we doing pressies now? Only...
0:56:54 > 0:56:57I know it's lame but it's the best I could do in the time.
0:56:57 > 0:57:01It's not lame, it's great!
0:57:01 > 0:57:04- Hope you don't think I'm an ego maniac!- No, thanks!
0:57:04 > 0:57:06Sorry.
0:57:13 > 0:57:15I'm going to miss you, Petrenko.
0:57:17 > 0:57:19Can't believe I just said that.
0:57:27 > 0:57:30- Bye, see you tomorrow. - Yeah. Erm...
0:57:31 > 0:57:35I did say thank you earlier, right? For theatre?
0:57:35 > 0:57:39Well, not with words but we're all very busy.
0:57:39 > 0:57:41Sometimes pleasantries get dispensed with. Just how it is.
0:57:41 > 0:57:46Well, they shouldn't and I should've remembered my manners so...thank you.
0:57:46 > 0:57:50You're welcome. Everyone speaks very highly of you,
0:57:50 > 0:57:53- so I assumed it's just a bad day, or something.- Won't happen again.
0:57:53 > 0:57:56Actually, I love nothing more than a ding-dong about a case.
0:57:56 > 0:57:59It doesn't have to be personal, does it? It's just a battle of wits?
0:57:59 > 0:58:02- Exactly.- You know, obviously it's competitive
0:58:02 > 0:58:04but people don't need to get hurt.
0:58:04 > 0:58:06That's a very good philosophy.
0:58:07 > 0:58:10So, if I apply for clinical lead?
0:58:10 > 0:58:13May the best man win.
0:58:14 > 0:58:15Good luck.
