0:00:39 > 0:00:41- About last night... - Don't worry about it.

0:00:41 > 0:00:43I know where your head's at, Luc.

0:00:43 > 0:00:47So we sleep together, then we have to go on the obligatory date.

0:00:47 > 0:00:49Before you know it, we're having domestics in the canteen.

0:00:49 > 0:00:53We can just take it one step at a time.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55Is Daniel Hamilton working here today?

0:00:55 > 0:00:56You're his dad?

0:00:56 > 0:00:58Yes, for my sins. Where do you think he gets his good looks from?

0:00:58 > 0:01:00He doesn't have a clue about you, does he?

0:01:00 > 0:01:03I've got your old man's X-ray results.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05I don't think we'll be calling a cab anytime soon.

0:01:24 > 0:01:25What?

0:01:25 > 0:01:27I was just thinking I'm...

0:01:27 > 0:01:29What?

0:01:29 > 0:01:31I'm really...uncomfortable.

0:01:31 > 0:01:32Yes, so am I really uncomfortable.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34This was a terrible idea.

0:01:34 > 0:01:35Terrible.

0:01:53 > 0:01:56Whoo, serious bit of kit.

0:01:56 > 0:01:58My father wants to leave here looking his best.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Yeah?

0:02:00 > 0:02:02Always fancied myself with one of these.

0:02:04 > 0:02:05I used to watch him shaving when I was little.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08The mark of a man.

0:02:08 > 0:02:12He'd put a blob of foam on my cheek, pretend to shave it off.

0:02:13 > 0:02:14Cheers.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18KNOCK AT DOOR

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Are you expecting anybody?

0:02:20 > 0:02:23I thought it was time you met my folks.

0:02:27 > 0:02:29Sorry, did I wake you up?

0:02:30 > 0:02:31What do you want?

0:02:31 > 0:02:35Erm... Mr Hanssen said to remind you that you've got a meeting

0:02:35 > 0:02:36with him this morning.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38Right. Thank you.

0:02:38 > 0:02:39OK.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50What does Hanssen want?

0:02:50 > 0:02:51No idea.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53She's such a nosey cow.

0:02:59 > 0:03:00Have you told your dad?

0:03:02 > 0:03:03Tell him what?

0:03:03 > 0:03:05He's got motor neurone.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09Yeah...last night.

0:03:09 > 0:03:10And?

0:03:10 > 0:03:15Took it on the chin. "We've all got to die of something."

0:03:15 > 0:03:18And what about you?

0:03:22 > 0:03:26If my father can refrain from emotional incontinence,

0:03:26 > 0:03:27I think I can too.

0:03:32 > 0:03:34Someone I'd like you to meet.

0:03:34 > 0:03:35What did you say?

0:03:35 > 0:03:37Someone I'd like you to meet.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39It's my stress ball. He's called Willoughby.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42I'm feeling slightly nauseous.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44It's really good at building muscle strength.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46You can do it any time - watching TV, sitting on the loo.

0:03:46 > 0:03:48Here. Have a go.

0:03:48 > 0:03:50It's just, you know, to get you started, for your condition.

0:03:50 > 0:03:53I don't have a condition, I have a disease that's going

0:03:53 > 0:03:55to machete through me till I'm a twitching,

0:03:55 > 0:03:58incontinent rabble of bones, unable to eat, sleep or breathe.

0:03:58 > 0:04:00Death's going to seem like an upgrade.

0:04:00 > 0:04:03What's Willoughby's response to that?

0:04:03 > 0:04:05There are ways to slow down the progress.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08I'm going to hell in a handcart. I don't want the scenic route.

0:04:08 > 0:04:12Ah - look at that. Top fly half.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14Never missed a catch, never shirked a challenge.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16- How are you feeling?- Bit sore.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18- I see you've started with the physio.- Physio...

0:04:18 > 0:04:23This is going to be my life from now on, being patronised by some...

0:04:23 > 0:04:26Thank you, Chantelle.

0:04:26 > 0:04:30So? Could you tell me? Conquest?

0:04:30 > 0:04:33- Dad! - Consultant's prerogative, time was.

0:04:33 > 0:04:34Times have changed.

0:04:34 > 0:04:39We don't... We don't brag about it so much.

0:04:41 > 0:04:42You owe me sushi.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Me Sacha, not Sushi.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46I saw her in the campervan.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48You sure?

0:04:48 > 0:04:49Yup, she was trying to hide.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51So you're not sure.

0:04:51 > 0:04:52Who else would be trying to hide?

0:04:52 > 0:04:58Anyway, I saw her hair. It's date night tonight. My choice.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00- And it's sushi.- Sushi...

0:05:03 > 0:05:05It's just... It's going to be all over the ward.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07There's a price you pay for a work-place fling.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10It's not a fling, don't call yourself a fling...

0:05:10 > 0:05:12I just don't want other people labelling us.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14I'm not a number, I'm a free man.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16You watched The Prisoner?

0:05:16 > 0:05:18From the ages of nine to eleven I was a teenage boy.

0:05:18 > 0:05:20Let's sneak in separately.

0:05:20 > 0:05:21Go on, let's deny everything

0:05:21 > 0:05:23and pretend we don't even like each other.

0:05:23 > 0:05:25- I don't know...- Please?

0:05:29 > 0:05:31Other way.

0:05:32 > 0:05:35Well, first of all, I would like to welcome back Ms Naylor.

0:05:35 > 0:05:40I hope that the research trip was fruitful and I also hope that

0:05:40 > 0:05:44some of that famous California laid-back attitude has rubbed off.

0:05:45 > 0:05:49Does anyone else have something more important they could be doing?

0:05:49 > 0:05:51Right.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Skip suntan jokes.

0:05:54 > 0:05:58I hope that you've all managed to read Mo's report on the sudden death

0:05:58 > 0:06:01of our heart/lung patient, Warwick Randall.

0:06:01 > 0:06:06So far, postmortem biopsies have failed to reveal any rational

0:06:06 > 0:06:07explanation for the death.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09For the benefit of Ms Naylor,

0:06:09 > 0:06:11might I remind you that the purpose of these meetings is to

0:06:11 > 0:06:16analyse our actions in order to discover whether a negative

0:06:16 > 0:06:19outcome could have been avoided in order to obviate a recurrence.

0:06:19 > 0:06:22It says here "cardiac arrest". Doesn't that cover it?

0:06:22 > 0:06:26Well, it's what happened. We don't know why it happened.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29The patient was given theraproxamine.

0:06:29 > 0:06:30Maybe he had a reaction?

0:06:32 > 0:06:35The patient was accepted for surgery because he ticked all the boxes.

0:06:35 > 0:06:38Plus theraproxamine has never been linked with rejection,

0:06:38 > 0:06:41otherwise I would have said so in my report.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47What's wrong with this picture?

0:06:50 > 0:06:51Surprise me.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54Two agency nurses doing one job.

0:06:54 > 0:06:57Fewer nurses equals better care. Impeccable logic.

0:06:59 > 0:07:00"War is peace."

0:07:00 > 0:07:04That's so quaint. You're quoting Orwell. Like he's still relevant.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06Come on, you know our target spend isn't being met.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08What do you suggest we cut?

0:07:08 > 0:07:10Right, well, will you tell Chantelle this is

0:07:10 > 0:07:12- her last day or will I? - Why Chantelle?

0:07:12 > 0:07:15She's been here longer than Simon.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17Simon's more efficient.

0:07:17 > 0:07:21You want rapid throughput. Take a look at that smile.

0:07:21 > 0:07:26What could be better at accelerating the patient recovery?

0:07:27 > 0:07:31Yeah. You show me the figures for that, I'll stop laughing.

0:07:31 > 0:07:32What do you think?

0:07:32 > 0:07:34About what?

0:07:34 > 0:07:36You want me to go along with the pretence you weren't listening?

0:07:36 > 0:07:37Simon or Chantelle?

0:07:39 > 0:07:40We need them both.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45Part of my remit is to make the figures work.

0:07:46 > 0:07:50I know. We'll take a decision based on today's performance.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52Hey, how do you fancy a little bet on the side,

0:07:52 > 0:07:54make it more interesting?

0:07:54 > 0:07:57Do you know how hard it is for agency nurses to find work today?

0:07:57 > 0:08:00You're about to make somebody redundant and you're trivialising it?

0:08:00 > 0:08:01Ric, it was a joke.

0:08:05 > 0:08:08Spinal trauma, open fracture of the femur, head injuries.

0:08:08 > 0:08:11He was found unconscious in the middle of a field - no footprints,

0:08:11 > 0:08:13no tyre tracks, nothing.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16Time slip. Crashed through from another dimension.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19Tachycardic. B/P 100 over 50. Pulse is 110.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21Oxygenation 98%.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24Right. Two identities. Think he leads a double life?

0:08:25 > 0:08:26OK...

0:08:26 > 0:08:29On my count. One, two, three.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35And again. Formal roll.

0:08:35 > 0:08:39I'll support the head. One, two, three.

0:08:39 > 0:08:40HE MOANS

0:08:40 > 0:08:42And back.

0:08:42 > 0:08:44I need a repeat set of bloods.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47Let me have a look at the neck, chest, and pelvis X-rays.

0:08:47 > 0:08:50Get a thoraco-lumbar spine and AP and lateral femur.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52Get a berth in theatre ready for immediate use.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57RTA?

0:08:57 > 0:09:00No, found in a field, in the middle of nowhere.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02Illegal immigrant. They hide in the wheelbase of planes.

0:09:02 > 0:09:05Hard to hold on when the landing gear's engaged.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07- Could be.- I could do the ASIA.

0:09:07 > 0:09:11Why are you smiling? The man needs immediate assessment.

0:09:11 > 0:09:12Somebody's on it.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15Yes, by the time they've cleaned the wound, it could be all over,

0:09:15 > 0:09:18- poor beggar's lost his leg.- Dad, you're recovering from an operation.

0:09:18 > 0:09:19That's not it, is it, though?

0:09:19 > 0:09:22- That's not why you won't let me help.- Dad...

0:09:22 > 0:09:24I may have motor neurone but I'm as sharp as I've ever been.

0:09:28 > 0:09:30Don't bury me before I'm dead.

0:09:34 > 0:09:35Mr Hanssen?

0:09:35 > 0:09:36Yes?

0:09:37 > 0:09:40Would it be breaking protocol if I looked into this?

0:09:40 > 0:09:43You have your CT rotation to prioritise.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46- I'll make time. - I don't want you consumed by it.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49But you can show me anything you've found by the end of the day, please.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55Chantelle.

0:09:57 > 0:09:59I need you on top form today.

0:09:59 > 0:10:01Of course.

0:10:06 > 0:10:08Mr Hamilton, if you could just unbutton your PJs.

0:10:08 > 0:10:10I just need to check your wound.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12- I've done it, it's fine.- Sorry?

0:10:12 > 0:10:13I've checked the wound,

0:10:13 > 0:10:16it's fine, last thing it needs is somebody poking at it.

0:10:16 > 0:10:20Mr Hamilton, if I can't do my job, you can't go home.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23We had a nurse like you at Barts. Couldn't take a temperature.

0:10:23 > 0:10:25She made up for it in other departments.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28He's being a bit rude.

0:10:30 > 0:10:33Listen, don't take it personally. I don't think he means it.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35You think I don't know my own mind?

0:10:35 > 0:10:36I'm sorry, Mr Hamilton,

0:10:36 > 0:10:39but we just need to be aware how MND might affect mood.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42Are you implying I have dementia as well?

0:10:42 > 0:10:45- No...- Very fashionable to link MND and dementia.

0:10:45 > 0:10:48If I had a neurodegenerative condition my son would have told me.

0:10:48 > 0:10:50Yes, I'm sure he would.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57Doctor Lo.

0:10:59 > 0:11:05Bed eight, prepare her for theatre. In your own time, of course.

0:11:06 > 0:11:08So I'm at Camp Bastion Field Hospital,

0:11:08 > 0:11:11and they're picking bits of plastic out my head,

0:11:11 > 0:11:14this little Afghani nurse comes over and takes my pulse, tells me,

0:11:14 > 0:11:18perfect English mind you, tells me I've got a heart defect.

0:11:18 > 0:11:19Army Medical not pick that up?

0:11:19 > 0:11:22They claimed I mustn't have had it when they signed me up.

0:11:22 > 0:11:23Second degree heart block.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26And she can tell just by holding my wrist.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29Something's been lost along the way, I'm telling you.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41You want to know what really happened?

0:11:41 > 0:11:43Don't do that.

0:11:43 > 0:11:47This didn't come from me. After they closed him up again...

0:11:48 > 0:11:50..Hanssen couldn't find his gherkin sandwich...

0:11:50 > 0:11:53Goes all the way to the top, this.

0:11:54 > 0:11:56Oliver, can I ask a huge favour? I've got all this to get through.

0:11:56 > 0:11:58You couldn't prep bed eight, could you?

0:11:58 > 0:12:01You'd be really helping me out.

0:12:01 > 0:12:02OK.

0:12:02 > 0:12:04Thank you.

0:12:07 > 0:12:09- Busy.- Always.

0:12:09 > 0:12:10Busy trying to impress Hanssen.

0:12:10 > 0:12:13If only she made half that effort for you.

0:12:15 > 0:12:17Thoracic fracture.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19- Straight to theatre. - Still waiting on the CT scan.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21By the time you get it I could have repaired the femur.

0:12:21 > 0:12:23The fracture's an emergency.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25If we don't act now, it could be game over.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27OK, do it.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30I need you with...vascular issues.

0:12:30 > 0:12:31Not impossible.

0:12:31 > 0:12:34Can we help you?

0:12:34 > 0:12:37I can see you're busy. I'll come back later.

0:12:37 > 0:12:38Do we know how it happened?

0:12:38 > 0:12:41Not yet, no. The police are looking into it.

0:12:41 > 0:12:42I won't hold my breath then.

0:12:42 > 0:12:45And could you get Simon to re-dress the head injury?

0:12:45 > 0:12:47Sure.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49Was that for my benefit?

0:12:49 > 0:12:50What?

0:12:50 > 0:12:53Simon's on a break. Why didn't you ask Chantelle?

0:13:02 > 0:13:03How're you feeling?

0:13:03 > 0:13:04Been better.

0:13:04 > 0:13:08- Oh? - Never explain, never complain, eh?

0:13:08 > 0:13:09Sorry?

0:13:09 > 0:13:12I don't want to fuss, given that Daniel works in the hospital.

0:13:12 > 0:13:14- What's happened?- I've been verbally abused by one of your nurses.

0:13:14 > 0:13:16Which one?

0:13:16 > 0:13:20Brown hair. Male. A bit light on his loafers.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25What did he actually say?

0:13:28 > 0:13:31Well, she must have something special.

0:13:31 > 0:13:33What?

0:13:33 > 0:13:35Eddi...

0:13:35 > 0:13:38Got you roped and tied, mate.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40You know, not like that.

0:13:40 > 0:13:42- Like what?- You know, like...

0:13:42 > 0:13:46lassoing a wild mustang, you know, that type of thing.

0:13:46 > 0:13:50Anyway...you two, I hope it's... I hope it's cool.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53Do you think somebody might be winding you up somewhere?

0:13:53 > 0:13:55Sorry, have I got this completely wrong?

0:14:01 > 0:14:06Right. Sushi's off. My choice - burger and chips.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15There's been a complaint.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18Oh, let me guess.

0:14:18 > 0:14:23He said you were patronising, insulting...

0:14:23 > 0:14:26Your father's made a complaint against me.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28What did you do?

0:14:28 > 0:14:31What did I do? What else did he say?

0:14:32 > 0:14:35No, no, no. It's all going to come out anyway.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39You told him his ability to think like a rational human being

0:14:39 > 0:14:41was impaired.

0:14:41 > 0:14:44He was being rude to Chantelle, I suggested that we

0:14:44 > 0:14:47take his illness into consideration.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50- You said he had dementia. - No, I did not say that.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53Look, I think he has some kind of a problem with me.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57We should have this conversation later.

0:14:57 > 0:14:59What? He says my father's lying and I've just got to accept it?

0:14:59 > 0:15:01- You weren't there. - OK. That's enough.

0:15:01 > 0:15:05- This is ridiculous.- I said, that's enough. There's a patient in there.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07Do the job you're paid to do.

0:15:11 > 0:15:12Tara, I haven't had a chance...

0:15:12 > 0:15:14Sorry, not right now.

0:15:15 > 0:15:16Dr Lo!

0:15:16 > 0:15:18Bed eight. Lainey Craig.

0:15:18 > 0:15:21I told you to prep her half an hour ago.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23Yeah, she did ask me but I was called away.

0:15:23 > 0:15:27When I tell you to do something you don't farm it out, you do it.

0:15:30 > 0:15:31You read my report?

0:15:31 > 0:15:33Of course.

0:15:33 > 0:15:34So where did I go wrong?

0:15:34 > 0:15:36- I...- You think it's my judgement?

0:15:36 > 0:15:38- No.- My thoroughness?

0:15:38 > 0:15:40- No. - You're just not smart enough.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42- Maybe that's it.- Innate stupidity.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45- Which is why Dr Lo... - Not being a complete numpty...

0:15:45 > 0:15:46..will find out whatever I...

0:15:46 > 0:15:48- ..in your doltish way. - Yeah, all right, Jonny.

0:15:48 > 0:15:53- Sorry.- Which is why Dr Lo will find whatever I failed to uncover.

0:15:53 > 0:15:56Who knows? Maybe there is something to learn.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59But right here, right now, that's not our job.

0:15:59 > 0:16:02So maybe you need to go back to Mr Hanssen, tell him you've got more

0:16:02 > 0:16:07important things to do - like not scoring zero in your CT rotation.

0:16:12 > 0:16:16- What have we got?- His wife found him struggling to breathe.

0:16:16 > 0:16:18- Toxic shock? - Couldn't get much out of her.

0:16:18 > 0:16:19- Where is she?- En route.

0:16:19 > 0:16:21She refused to come in the ambulance.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24Needle marks here. Can you hear me?

0:16:24 > 0:16:26She said he couldn't move his eyelids.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28- Couldn't move his eyelids? - What she said.

0:16:28 > 0:16:29Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!

0:16:34 > 0:16:35I'm Mr Hemingway.

0:16:35 > 0:16:38Going to do everything we can to get your eyes working again.

0:16:38 > 0:16:40OK, get him in, quick as possible.

0:16:40 > 0:16:44A full set of bloods, clotting, group and save.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47Glucose, chest X-ray, get a urine sample

0:16:47 > 0:16:49and broad tox screen as a matter of urgency.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52You think he can hear you?

0:16:52 > 0:16:55Oh, yeah. He's fully conscious. He's just trapped.

0:16:55 > 0:16:56What do you mean "trapped"?

0:16:56 > 0:16:59Miles inside his own body. He must have had a major stroke.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04Hi, Lainey, I'm Doctor Lo, I just want to run through a few things

0:17:04 > 0:17:06before your operation...

0:17:06 > 0:17:07I'm having a pacemaker fitted.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09Yes. So you'll be having a local...

0:17:09 > 0:17:12General. I've opted for a general anaesthetic.

0:17:12 > 0:17:13It's a fairly simple procedure.

0:17:13 > 0:17:17I've got this stupid nervous thing going on, it's pathetic.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20- Not me at all.- It says in your notes you're ex-Army.

0:17:20 > 0:17:24Caught a bit of shrapnel at Helmand. Listen to yourself...

0:17:24 > 0:17:26- "Caught a bit of shrapnel..." - What happened?

0:17:26 > 0:17:30What happened? My mate Marco... big, tall gormless lad...

0:17:30 > 0:17:32uniform hanging on him, y'know, he went and stood on an IED.

0:17:32 > 0:17:35- IED? - Improvised explosive device.

0:17:35 > 0:17:37They case them in plastic to avoid detection.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39I got splinters from the casing.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41- Was your friend killed?- No...

0:17:41 > 0:17:43They design 'em to injure. Stretch your resources.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45He lost an arm, both legs...

0:17:46 > 0:17:49OK, we're running a bit late to theatre so just lie back

0:17:49 > 0:17:51and I'll take you in myself.

0:17:51 > 0:17:55You were in the Army with a second-degree heart block?

0:17:55 > 0:17:58I didn't know when I joined. Probably should've.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00Used to get these dizzy spells.

0:18:00 > 0:18:03Just made me more determined to do well.

0:18:03 > 0:18:04Easy.

0:18:04 > 0:18:07You might want to loosen that screw.

0:18:07 > 0:18:08I thought you were in a hurry.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10The spinal fracture should've taken priority.

0:18:10 > 0:18:14Over an open femoral fracture? What, are you trained as a vet?

0:18:14 > 0:18:17- Need a hammer? - Mr Malick, do you mind?

0:18:17 > 0:18:19It's all right. Won't be long.

0:18:22 > 0:18:24Tricky when your mind's elsewhere.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27My father doesn't lie.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29Sure. Like father, like son.

0:18:29 > 0:18:31- What is your problem? - I don't have one.

0:18:31 > 0:18:35- So why...?- Serena's talking about getting rid of an agency nurse.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37You've just made her decision a bit easier.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40Make good and close.

0:18:42 > 0:18:44One of the screws still needs tightening.

0:18:49 > 0:18:51- There's no pulse. - BEEPING

0:18:51 > 0:18:54Femoral artery damage. On-table angiogram.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00- KNOCK AT DOOR - Come in.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10I'm sorry, this is all I have.

0:19:10 > 0:19:11Leave it there, please.

0:19:14 > 0:19:18- My CT rotation...- I'm not given to unrealistic expectations.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21I looked into theraproxamine...

0:19:21 > 0:19:22I'll read it in due course.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32Dan. Dan!

0:19:32 > 0:19:35Do you really think if you ignore your problems

0:19:35 > 0:19:36they'll just disappear?

0:19:36 > 0:19:37My dad'll be gone in...

0:19:37 > 0:19:39in a few hours.

0:19:39 > 0:19:43- Let's just get through it without any more incidents.- Incidents?- I...

0:19:43 > 0:19:46- GROANING - Woah! You need to lie flat.

0:19:46 > 0:19:49You're in hospital. You've had an operation to repair your leg.

0:19:49 > 0:19:50You need to minimise movement.

0:19:50 > 0:19:53We haven't been able to contact anyone to let them know.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55You had two wallets on you when you came in.

0:19:55 > 0:19:56Are you Ben or Alex?

0:19:56 > 0:19:58No. Alex is my mate. You need to get onto the police.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00How did you get your injuries?

0:20:00 > 0:20:01I mean, you need to get onto the police now!

0:20:01 > 0:20:03They want to know what happened.

0:20:03 > 0:20:05Alex is in a balloon. It's his first time.

0:20:05 > 0:20:07He hasn't got a clue how to fly it.

0:20:07 > 0:20:08Look, you need to call the police, please.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10What's this got to do with your injuries.

0:20:10 > 0:20:13Alex dropped his wallet. I climbed out to try and get it.

0:20:13 > 0:20:16The thing just drifted off.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20I grabbed hold of the rope but it just took me up.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23I tried to climb back up but I couldn't...

0:20:23 > 0:20:25I had to let go.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27Right.

0:20:27 > 0:20:28Just call the police, please!

0:20:33 > 0:20:35Results?

0:20:35 > 0:20:36Not yet.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39B/P's 90 over 50. As soon as his wife gets here...

0:20:39 > 0:20:40I know.

0:20:40 > 0:20:42Hypotension. If you don't know what's causing it...

0:20:42 > 0:20:43- You can't treat it.- Exactly.

0:20:43 > 0:20:45I've made you a coffee.

0:20:45 > 0:20:48Luc, just because I know how you take your coffee

0:20:48 > 0:20:49doesn't mean we're conjoined.

0:20:49 > 0:20:52Anyway, nobody's watching, you can drop the act for a bit.

0:20:52 > 0:20:56- Eddi, I prefer to stay in character. - You don't get it, do you?

0:20:56 > 0:20:58You know when you play hide and seek as a kid?

0:20:58 > 0:21:00I didn't, really, never saw the point.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02Well, the best part of it is when you get found.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07Oh, my God.

0:21:09 > 0:21:11Are you his wife?

0:21:11 > 0:21:13Yes. I'm Zoey.

0:21:13 > 0:21:15- Where have you been?- I went back to lock up. The ambulance had gone.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18How long's he had Locked-in Syndrome?

0:21:18 > 0:21:19He suffered a stroke two years ago.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22Moving his eyelids, that's his only form of communication?

0:21:22 > 0:21:24Yes, until this morning.

0:21:24 > 0:21:26- Are you his sole carer? - Yes, medically qualified.

0:21:26 > 0:21:28- Does he have any allergies?- No.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30Could you explain the needle marks, please?

0:21:30 > 0:21:32- He's diabetic.- Has he had any today?

0:21:32 > 0:21:35- No. I found him first thing. - The patient needs insulin.

0:21:35 > 0:21:38I need you to tell me everything you've given him in the past 48 hours.

0:21:38 > 0:21:42I feed him through a peg tube. I'm meticulous.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45That's his meds.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48- Excellent.- And that's the food.

0:21:48 > 0:21:53Thank you. Is this everything?

0:21:53 > 0:21:55- Yes.- You're absolutely sure?

0:21:55 > 0:21:57Of course I'm sure, I've been doing it for two years.

0:21:57 > 0:21:59Every day, the same thing.

0:21:59 > 0:22:01Could he have come into contact with any organo-phosphates?

0:22:01 > 0:22:04- No.- You make this yourself?

0:22:04 > 0:22:06I use formula. He prefers it.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08- Does the formula contain fish?- No.

0:22:08 > 0:22:11- Could he have suffered a fall? - I've hidden his BMX!

0:22:11 > 0:22:13He could have fallen out of bed. I'm trying to...

0:22:13 > 0:22:15If we can't treat him he's going to die.

0:22:15 > 0:22:18If I knew what was causing it I'd tell you.

0:22:18 > 0:22:21You said you're medically trained.

0:22:21 > 0:22:24- Pharmacist. Six years. - A pharmacist?

0:22:24 > 0:22:26Does that qualify you to look after a patient

0:22:26 > 0:22:27with Locked-in Syndrome?

0:22:27 > 0:22:30He's not a patient, he's my husband.

0:22:34 > 0:22:36Mr Griffin.

0:22:36 > 0:22:41When we spoke about Simon, I didn't realise his job was under threat.

0:22:41 > 0:22:44You're backing your father, though, he was telling the truth?

0:22:44 > 0:22:47Yes, of course it was the truth, but he's been through a lot.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49It's not impossible he took Simon's words the wrong way.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Because he's homophobic?

0:22:51 > 0:22:52Homophobic?

0:22:52 > 0:22:55Some of his views, I don't know, they might be a bit old-fashioned.

0:22:55 > 0:22:58- Old-fashioned?- He hates...

0:22:58 > 0:23:02He hates weakness - weakness in men...

0:23:04 > 0:23:07I don't want Simon to lose his job over anything I've said.

0:23:07 > 0:23:13Nevertheless, Simon may have... misjudged the situation.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23- How'd it go?- Great.

0:23:23 > 0:23:26She had a wee panic in the transfer, took a header onto the floor.

0:23:26 > 0:23:30- What?- Somebody forgot to put the rail guard up.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33- Was that me?- When she comes round, have a chat. How's she feeling?

0:23:33 > 0:23:36Is she going to sue? You know the drill.

0:23:44 > 0:23:46When you were picking up my things, was there any mail?

0:23:46 > 0:23:49- Bills.- Oh...

0:23:49 > 0:23:51Your mother used to do all that.

0:23:51 > 0:23:54- I know.- Have you spoken to her?

0:23:54 > 0:23:56Yes.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59She's not coming back, is she?

0:23:59 > 0:24:01I don't think so.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05- It's ridiculous you having to do this.- Yeah, I know.

0:24:05 > 0:24:07Why can't they employ proper nurses?

0:24:07 > 0:24:08"Back in my day..."

0:24:08 > 0:24:11Yes, all right. Are they doing it deliberately?

0:24:11 > 0:24:14I'm sorry to interrupt. Police have just called. It's not good.

0:24:14 > 0:24:17- Police?- It's all right, Dad, it's just a patient.

0:24:26 > 0:24:30Ben, the police tried your friend's number. His wife answered.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32He never had the phone with him.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34The CAA are going to put a helicopter up and try to locate him.

0:24:34 > 0:24:39He only has enough propane for eight hours. I've got to go.

0:24:39 > 0:24:41- Ahh!- No, Ben... - Ben, you need to lie still.

0:24:41 > 0:24:43No, it's my fault he's up there!

0:24:43 > 0:24:45You may be suffering from post-operative confusion.

0:24:45 > 0:24:47You're in danger of doing yourself serious harm.

0:24:47 > 0:24:50What if it was your friend? Would you do nothing? Please...

0:24:50 > 0:24:53Listen. What you did was very brave but you really need to lie still.

0:24:53 > 0:24:56- Brave? I let go! I let go of the rope!- 10mg of diazepam.

0:24:56 > 0:24:58You can't keep me here!

0:24:58 > 0:24:59Just let go of my arm!

0:24:59 > 0:25:01We really don't need to do that.

0:25:01 > 0:25:03Nurse, please!

0:25:03 > 0:25:04Just try and talk to him.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13Fantastic!

0:25:16 > 0:25:18Problem solved.

0:25:18 > 0:25:21Consultants' office, five minutes.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30Be prepared. Face is trippin' her.

0:25:30 > 0:25:31What's she said?

0:25:31 > 0:25:34That's it, she's not said a word.

0:25:34 > 0:25:35She's been giving it the daggers.

0:25:43 > 0:25:48Hi, Lainey. I've read your notes. You've got your new pacemaker.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51All good.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55We can talk about what happened.

0:25:55 > 0:25:59Can I get you some water or some...?

0:25:59 > 0:26:01Sling your hook!

0:26:03 > 0:26:08Oh, my God, my voice. What have you done to me?

0:26:08 > 0:26:09What's wrong with me?

0:26:14 > 0:26:17You can't do that. I'm a consultant,

0:26:17 > 0:26:19you can't criticise me in front of my staff.

0:26:19 > 0:26:21There's no-one else here, you don't have to pull rank.

0:26:21 > 0:26:23That was a work situation.

0:26:23 > 0:26:25Yeah, yeah. That was all about work.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28I made a professional decision. You undermined it. Why?

0:26:28 > 0:26:31- Because I defended my father? - Because you took the easy choice.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33What?

0:26:33 > 0:26:37This, you and me. If you use your father as an excuse

0:26:37 > 0:26:41to destroy this then you're going right back to square one.

0:26:49 > 0:26:55Toxicology on Corey Eagles. Well, when, for goodness' sake?

0:26:58 > 0:26:59Fine.

0:27:02 > 0:27:03Have you treated him before?

0:27:03 > 0:27:06- No.- I bet he'd have more to say than you would.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10- What?- You know, even with just his eyelids.

0:27:10 > 0:27:13Bet it's not all one blink and that's your lot.

0:27:13 > 0:27:15He's a travel writer.

0:27:15 > 0:27:18Anthropologist. Been everywhere before he was out of his twenties.

0:27:18 > 0:27:21Both poles, Borneo, Amazon.

0:27:21 > 0:27:24Made contact with the Andaman Islanders.

0:27:24 > 0:27:27They'd lived in complete isolation for 60,000 years.

0:27:27 > 0:27:31- But they accepted him.- Yeah? And?

0:27:34 > 0:27:36His first book, it's called Live Every Day

0:27:36 > 0:27:41and I found it in a backpackers' hostel I'd been staying in Sydney.

0:27:41 > 0:27:44It was as if someone had left it just for me.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47It changed your life?

0:27:47 > 0:27:49You change your own life.

0:27:49 > 0:27:53He still writes. He's halfway through a book now.

0:27:53 > 0:27:56See, wasn't so difficult, was it?

0:28:05 > 0:28:08Got an interesting one for you.

0:28:08 > 0:28:09Came in talking like Barbara Windsor,

0:28:09 > 0:28:11now she sounds like Frankie Boyle.

0:28:11 > 0:28:13Maybe she's jocking.

0:28:13 > 0:28:17I think she's genuine. I've been online.

0:28:17 > 0:28:18FAS, foreign accent syndrome.

0:28:18 > 0:28:20Can be caused by a blow to the head.

0:28:20 > 0:28:22Right, so she's the one who fell out of bed.

0:28:22 > 0:28:24Yes.

0:28:24 > 0:28:26It's ATS - acute thespian syndrome.

0:28:26 > 0:28:28- I don't...- She had a fall, she wants her day in court.

0:28:28 > 0:28:31I don't know what her problem is.

0:28:31 > 0:28:33She should be proud talking like that.

0:28:33 > 0:28:35Yeah, part of the nation that gave us The Krankies.

0:28:35 > 0:28:38Anyway, I thought she sounded kind of sexy.

0:28:38 > 0:28:40And the sooner you get your independence the better.

0:28:46 > 0:28:48What?

0:28:48 > 0:28:50Nothing, just smiling.

0:28:50 > 0:28:51Don't.

0:28:55 > 0:28:57Were they talking about me?

0:28:57 > 0:28:59We were discussing your case.

0:28:59 > 0:29:01We think you may be suffering from foreign accent syndrome.

0:29:01 > 0:29:03Do you think it's funny?

0:29:03 > 0:29:07No, I don't. I think there's a reason for it.

0:29:07 > 0:29:09I want to help you.

0:29:14 > 0:29:16Mr Hemingway. You were just on your way to see me.

0:29:16 > 0:29:18- No, I wasn't. - Well you should have been.

0:29:18 > 0:29:20Have we made a decision yet?

0:29:20 > 0:29:23- We?- Given your contribution, which has been adequate,

0:29:23 > 0:29:26it's within my gift to offer you a permanent contract.

0:29:27 > 0:29:29Erm...I'll have to think it over.

0:29:29 > 0:29:31I must admit, I thought you'd reject it out of hand.

0:29:31 > 0:29:34I thought you valued your freedom too highly.

0:29:34 > 0:29:36- Depends how you define freedom.- Indeed.

0:29:36 > 0:29:38One can of course be bounded in a nutshell

0:29:38 > 0:29:41and count yourself a king of infinite space.

0:29:42 > 0:29:43Wise words.

0:29:43 > 0:29:47Fundamental error, though, to put them in the mouth of a Dane.

0:29:47 > 0:29:51Let me know your decision within two hours, please.

0:29:51 > 0:29:53Erm, what did Hanssen want?

0:29:53 > 0:29:55My contract ends today.

0:29:55 > 0:29:58You didn't think that was worth mentioning?

0:29:58 > 0:30:01Bed five. He's struggling to breathe.

0:30:05 > 0:30:08- Do you want to intubate? - No. We'd have to sedate him. CPAP.

0:30:08 > 0:30:10If he should vomit which is a strong possibility

0:30:10 > 0:30:11with hypotension...

0:30:11 > 0:30:13We'll keep him monitored. Nurse McKee...CPAP.

0:30:13 > 0:30:14Are you sure?

0:30:14 > 0:30:17We get one flash between two endless voids - his words.

0:30:17 > 0:30:19If this is the end, do you think he'd want to be sedated?

0:30:19 > 0:30:22Thank you.

0:30:24 > 0:30:28It's your call. Sats 83 and dropping.

0:30:30 > 0:30:32- Where's his wife? - She just left.

0:30:32 > 0:30:34Could you get her for me, as soon as possible?

0:30:43 > 0:30:44What're you doing?

0:30:46 > 0:30:47Where's your jacket?

0:30:47 > 0:30:49I don't know.

0:30:49 > 0:30:51It must get pretty cold in a balloon, right?

0:30:51 > 0:30:53But when they brought you in, you were in a T-shirt.

0:30:53 > 0:30:54Jacket must be in the rig.

0:30:54 > 0:30:56With your phone in the pocket.

0:30:56 > 0:30:58My phone? It's in the balloon!

0:30:58 > 0:30:59I'll call the police.

0:30:59 > 0:31:01Wait, that will just waste time.

0:31:01 > 0:31:03I'll talk to him. I'll talk him down.

0:31:05 > 0:31:06Mr Hanssen?

0:31:06 > 0:31:08Ah, Dr Lo, I read your page.

0:31:08 > 0:31:10Theraproxamine.

0:31:10 > 0:31:13Mimicking an oedema, an infection of some kind, resulting in rejection...

0:31:13 > 0:31:16Needs further research, of course, but it's promising.

0:31:16 > 0:31:18What did you want to see me about?

0:31:21 > 0:31:22Very good.

0:31:22 > 0:31:25I'd like you to run through the vowels for me, please.

0:31:25 > 0:31:27There's a rational explanation for this.

0:31:30 > 0:31:32A...

0:31:32 > 0:31:36E...I...O...U.

0:31:36 > 0:31:38Excellent.

0:31:38 > 0:31:41You don't have a Scottish accent, Ms Craig, but your speech

0:31:41 > 0:31:45merely contains intonation we associate with parts of Scotland.

0:31:45 > 0:31:49I'm from Penge. How I talked - that was me.

0:31:49 > 0:31:52It's like waking up and discovering you're someone else.

0:31:52 > 0:31:54Gregor Samsa awoke one morning

0:31:54 > 0:31:57and found himself transformed into a giant insect.

0:31:57 > 0:31:59What ward's he on?

0:31:59 > 0:32:01And what do we deduce from this?

0:32:01 > 0:32:03Ms Craig suffered wounds to the frontal area of the skull.

0:32:03 > 0:32:07A piece of shrapnel may have become dislodged by her fall

0:32:07 > 0:32:10blocking blood flow to the speech centre of the brain.

0:32:10 > 0:32:11And how do we proceed?

0:32:11 > 0:32:13I'd like to carry out an MRI.

0:32:13 > 0:32:17I look forward to the result with interest. Good afternoon.

0:32:17 > 0:32:18Look, can we just do it?

0:32:22 > 0:32:24RING TONE

0:32:24 > 0:32:27Come on. Come on.

0:32:27 > 0:32:28It's in my jacket pocket.

0:32:28 > 0:32:29Try to stay calm.

0:32:29 > 0:32:32Alex! It's Ben! Thank God you're alive.

0:32:32 > 0:32:34- 'Mate! You've got to get me down!' - OK, OK then listen,

0:32:34 > 0:32:36I'm going to talk you down.

0:32:36 > 0:32:39You need to pull the cord to open the parachute valve, OK?

0:32:39 > 0:32:41'What are you talking about?!'

0:32:41 > 0:32:45Alex? Can you hear me? Alex?!

0:32:46 > 0:32:48I'm sorry.

0:32:51 > 0:32:52Have you seen Nurse McKee?

0:32:52 > 0:32:55She said it was your last day. It isn't, is it?

0:32:55 > 0:32:57Doesn't really answer my question.

0:32:57 > 0:32:58She seemed upset.

0:32:58 > 0:33:01PHONE BEEPS

0:33:13 > 0:33:15I found her walking along the edge.

0:33:15 > 0:33:17- Did she say anything? - She just told me to stay back.

0:33:17 > 0:33:18Anything else?

0:33:18 > 0:33:20Nothing that made any sense.

0:33:20 > 0:33:22What? What did she say?

0:33:22 > 0:33:23Propiti...

0:33:23 > 0:33:25- Propitiation?- Yeah.

0:33:28 > 0:33:31OK if I join you?

0:33:31 > 0:33:32Go away.

0:33:32 > 0:33:36I'm just going to sit over here, OK? I won't get too close.

0:33:36 > 0:33:38I just want some time to myself.

0:33:41 > 0:33:43It's an Andaman Islanders belief, isn't it?

0:33:43 > 0:33:46To gain the gods' favour, you take an equal risk.

0:33:46 > 0:33:47To save a life, you risk a life.

0:33:49 > 0:33:51You got him breathing again?

0:33:51 > 0:33:53Yes.

0:33:53 > 0:33:55How long's he got?

0:33:55 > 0:33:56He's not getting any stronger...

0:33:56 > 0:34:00How long? Days? Hours?

0:34:05 > 0:34:06A few hours.

0:34:06 > 0:34:09I can't be without him.

0:34:13 > 0:34:15Have you any idea how that feels?

0:34:18 > 0:34:22You fall in love, it's a long way down.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46What was all that about?

0:34:46 > 0:34:48I mean, I obviously know what that was about

0:34:48 > 0:34:50but what were you even thinking, Luc?

0:34:50 > 0:34:53- If she'd fallen, she'd have taken you over the edge? - She didn't, did she?

0:34:53 > 0:34:55But she could have done. Look at her. She's obviously a nut job.

0:34:55 > 0:34:57Are we having our first domestic?

0:34:57 > 0:35:00Why didn't you tell me, that this was your last day?

0:35:00 > 0:35:03Hanssen's offered me a permanent contract.

0:35:05 > 0:35:07And I bet you told him he could stick it.

0:35:07 > 0:35:09Before last night I probably would have said no.

0:35:09 > 0:35:11But I woke up this morning, it was a new day.

0:35:12 > 0:35:14What does that even mean, Luc?

0:35:14 > 0:35:17It means I'm going to accept.

0:35:17 > 0:35:19What's life without a few risks?

0:35:19 > 0:35:21What is wrong with you?!

0:35:40 > 0:35:42- Got a task.- Oh.

0:35:42 > 0:35:43When you've finished your lunch.

0:35:45 > 0:35:48- I need... - SHE SLURPS

0:35:48 > 0:35:49Maybe that could wait.

0:35:49 > 0:35:51Sorry.

0:35:52 > 0:35:56I need someone to go over Mr Hamilton's care plan with him.

0:35:56 > 0:35:58Oh.

0:35:58 > 0:36:00Certain people don't believe that you can do it.

0:36:00 > 0:36:05I told them, nobody's better at dealing with difficult patients.

0:36:05 > 0:36:07You said that?

0:36:07 > 0:36:10We show the doubters what Nurse Lane is made of.

0:36:10 > 0:36:12I can eat anytime.

0:36:17 > 0:36:19- Erm, you spell it...- It's OK.

0:36:19 > 0:36:22The machine knows what you mean better than you know what you mean.

0:36:23 > 0:36:26BEEPING

0:36:27 > 0:36:30Zoey... Zoey, listen to me...

0:36:30 > 0:36:34I need you to move back so we can treat him. Zoey!

0:36:34 > 0:36:36- Zoey!- Zoey!

0:36:36 > 0:36:40Could you step out of the way, please, so we can work?

0:36:40 > 0:36:43- Respiratory arrest.- Stay with him, just stay out the way.

0:36:47 > 0:36:49- Corey...- Laryngoscope.

0:36:49 > 0:36:52I love you!

0:36:52 > 0:36:58- I love you.- Zoey, Zoey we need to give the doctors some space.

0:36:58 > 0:37:00- Let's go and get a coffee. - I love you! I love you!

0:37:00 > 0:37:03- I want to be with him!- I know you do but they need space to work.

0:37:03 > 0:37:04I want to be with him!

0:37:04 > 0:37:07- His pulse is dropping.- Need to get a neck line in, start inotropes.

0:37:11 > 0:37:14Rigor mortis... What's causing this?

0:37:14 > 0:37:15Botulinum?

0:37:15 > 0:37:16Ciguatera?

0:37:19 > 0:37:22His heart's failing... we're just staving the inevitable.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24Luc, I've just spoken to toxicology. They've got nothing.

0:37:24 > 0:37:27Why wasn't his wife in the ambulance?

0:37:27 > 0:37:29This isn't right.

0:37:41 > 0:37:43- Is he all right? - That stunt on the roof.

0:37:43 > 0:37:45Was it to save him or kill him?

0:37:45 > 0:37:48- You have no idea. - He has a right to live.

0:37:48 > 0:37:49It's what he wanted!

0:37:49 > 0:37:50What did you give him?

0:37:50 > 0:37:53- We had a pact. - You mean YOU had a pact.

0:37:53 > 0:37:56No! We were up all night talking about it...

0:37:56 > 0:37:59we thought he'd slip away. But he didn't.

0:37:59 > 0:38:01He started fighting to breathe.

0:38:03 > 0:38:05I needed to know if he'd changed his mind...

0:38:05 > 0:38:06but he couldn't move his eyelids.

0:38:06 > 0:38:08What did you give him?

0:38:08 > 0:38:11If I tell you, I'll lose him.

0:38:11 > 0:38:12You'll "lose" him?

0:38:12 > 0:38:14I'll go to prison.

0:38:14 > 0:38:18You do not have the right to take another person's life.

0:38:18 > 0:38:20I did it because I love him.

0:38:23 > 0:38:24What did you give him?

0:38:24 > 0:38:26I gave him mivacurium.

0:38:26 > 0:38:27Thank you.

0:38:39 > 0:38:42Could you just give us a minute, please? Thank you.

0:38:48 > 0:38:50His heartbeat's really faint.

0:38:53 > 0:38:55What are you giving him?

0:38:57 > 0:39:00You know if you give him the wrong thing you're going to kill him.

0:39:00 > 0:39:01Luc?

0:39:03 > 0:39:04BEEPING

0:39:28 > 0:39:30Mr Hamilton?

0:39:31 > 0:39:32Sorry to wake you.

0:39:32 > 0:39:35I just need to go over a few things before you leave us.

0:39:35 > 0:39:37We want to make sure you get all the help you're entitled to.

0:39:37 > 0:39:39I just want to ask a few questions first.

0:39:39 > 0:39:41What's your date of birth?

0:39:41 > 0:39:42Mind your own business.

0:39:42 > 0:39:44It's OK. You're like my mum.

0:39:44 > 0:39:48Am I? In what possible way could I be like your dear old mum?

0:39:48 > 0:39:50I mean, she's funny about her age too.

0:39:50 > 0:39:54It's all right, I'll get it off your chart. Are you married?

0:39:54 > 0:39:55Is this a wind up?

0:39:55 > 0:39:57No, it's on the form...

0:39:57 > 0:40:00Who put you up to this?

0:40:00 > 0:40:02Nobody.

0:40:02 > 0:40:03Tell me their name.

0:40:05 > 0:40:06- It's stage two.- What?

0:40:06 > 0:40:08Your diagnosis. I've been reading about it.

0:40:08 > 0:40:10You must've raced through denial.

0:40:10 > 0:40:12Now you're on anger. Well done.

0:40:12 > 0:40:15Excuse me! Could someone remove the moron from my bedside?!

0:40:15 > 0:40:17I'm not a moron.

0:40:17 > 0:40:19You're doing a brilliant impersonation. Excuse me!

0:40:19 > 0:40:23If I was one of the male doctors, you'd treat me with respect.

0:40:23 > 0:40:24You put on this charm

0:40:24 > 0:40:27but underneath you're just a mean old-fashioned bully.

0:40:35 > 0:40:39Mr Griffin. Someone else can deal with Jeremy.

0:40:39 > 0:40:41And I'm sorry if I'm letting you down, but my mum and dad

0:40:41 > 0:40:44didn't bring me up to let people be rude and horrible to me.

0:40:44 > 0:40:45You are aware of his diagnosis?

0:40:45 > 0:40:47Good manners cost nothing.

0:40:47 > 0:40:51And I don't care if that sounds dumb, it's still true.

0:40:51 > 0:40:52I'm sorry.

0:40:52 > 0:40:55I know this must be really hard and I know he's probably scared

0:40:55 > 0:40:58and everything, but it doesn't give him the right to treat me like that.

0:40:58 > 0:41:01- Like what?- It's OK, Chantelle. You go and finish your lunch. Go on.

0:41:03 > 0:41:05PHONE BEEPS

0:41:06 > 0:41:09It's the...balloon guy.

0:41:09 > 0:41:11- This can wait.- What did he do?

0:41:13 > 0:41:15He's not coping well with vulnerability.

0:41:15 > 0:41:16I'll talk to him.

0:41:16 > 0:41:19You need to prioritise your...

0:41:21 > 0:41:23This was my fault, not Chantelle's.

0:41:23 > 0:41:26I should never have asked her to do it.

0:41:27 > 0:41:29This is ridiculous.

0:41:34 > 0:41:36You're not really cut out for a career in crime, are you?

0:41:36 > 0:41:39- Sorry?- Well, on the day you're offered a permanent contract

0:41:39 > 0:41:43you put your career in jeopardy by covering up an attempted murder.

0:41:43 > 0:41:45I mean, am I sensing a hint of ambivalence here, Luc?

0:41:45 > 0:41:48Eddi...

0:41:48 > 0:41:51Neostigmine. Antidote to mivacurium.

0:41:51 > 0:41:54Which, I'm guessing, she kept from her days as a pharmacist.

0:41:54 > 0:41:57Well, if that were true it'd make you an accomplice.

0:41:59 > 0:42:02Partners in crime, I think that's the phrase.

0:42:02 > 0:42:05That would make me a partner.

0:42:05 > 0:42:08Unless, of course, you want to go it alone.

0:42:28 > 0:42:29It's not easy, is it?

0:42:29 > 0:42:31It's not meant to be easy.

0:42:31 > 0:42:34Daunting prospect...empty house.

0:42:34 > 0:42:36Daniel, I don't need your touchy-feely yip yap,

0:42:36 > 0:42:38but I will not be made a fool of!

0:42:38 > 0:42:40Nobody's making a fool out of you.

0:42:40 > 0:42:42I suppose they sent you out here to give me a lecture?

0:42:42 > 0:42:44- PAGER BEEPS - Sometimes you say things...

0:42:44 > 0:42:47they probably sound worse than you mean them to.

0:42:47 > 0:42:49- You're taking his side?- Whose side?

0:42:49 > 0:42:50The nurse's.

0:42:52 > 0:42:55Dad, the nurse you spoke to was Nurse Lane. Chantelle.

0:42:55 > 0:42:57Don't try to bamboozle me.

0:42:57 > 0:43:00Have you seen the way he looks at you?

0:43:00 > 0:43:02I've no idea what you're talking about.

0:43:02 > 0:43:04Like he thinks there's something between you!

0:43:04 > 0:43:07We go back a long way. I told you, we played rugby together.

0:43:07 > 0:43:10- You know what I'm talking about. - Dad, I'm neglecting my patients.

0:43:10 > 0:43:12So, go. Go to your patients.

0:43:12 > 0:43:13I didn't ask you to come looking for me.

0:43:22 > 0:43:26These things... I sound ridiculous.

0:43:27 > 0:43:28You'll be fine.

0:43:28 > 0:43:31Every procedure I have makes it worse.

0:43:31 > 0:43:34- I promise. You just lie... - What if this goes wrong as well?

0:43:36 > 0:43:39OK...you know what? I'll show you how easy it is.

0:43:39 > 0:43:40Just go in there with Suzanna.

0:44:24 > 0:44:25Where were you?

0:44:25 > 0:44:28Chest pains, tachycardic, straining to breathe.

0:44:29 > 0:44:32- Any news?- Yes, I just showed him.

0:44:32 > 0:44:34It's still in the air about a mile north of here.

0:44:34 > 0:44:36It's been on the news all day.

0:44:38 > 0:44:42Cyanosis. Low sats and tachycardic. Possible pulmonary embolism.

0:44:42 > 0:44:44Anticoagulants too high risk.

0:44:44 > 0:44:47Even heparin could cause a bleed. Plus we've lost the theatre option.

0:44:47 > 0:44:50We do nothing, he could die. Are you sure it's a DVT?

0:44:50 > 0:44:52I'm sure.

0:44:52 > 0:44:53It's your call.

0:44:53 > 0:44:56OK...chest X-ray, CT angio.

0:44:56 > 0:44:58If positive then IV heparin infusion,

0:44:58 > 0:45:015,000 units then 18 units per kilo per hour.

0:45:01 > 0:45:03And hourly obs.

0:45:06 > 0:45:08That's it. We're all done.

0:45:14 > 0:45:16I'll get the neurosurgeon to have a look.

0:45:16 > 0:45:19Hopefully he'll be able to remove the shrapnel

0:45:19 > 0:45:21and get you back to normal.

0:45:21 > 0:45:22Thanks.

0:45:26 > 0:45:28The porter will take you back. I'll catch you up.

0:45:48 > 0:45:50What's going to happen to me?

0:45:51 > 0:45:54You won't be going to prison, if that's what you mean.

0:45:54 > 0:45:56We've organised a care home for Corey.

0:45:56 > 0:45:58Why would I possibly want that?

0:45:58 > 0:46:00Because you need some help.

0:46:00 > 0:46:03Every second I'm with him is priceless.

0:46:03 > 0:46:04We had a crisis...

0:46:04 > 0:46:08I think Nurse McKee is just a little concerned you might have another.

0:46:08 > 0:46:10If we do, we'll weather it together.

0:46:15 > 0:46:19There you go then. I mean, that solves that, right?

0:46:19 > 0:46:21Happy ever after.

0:46:23 > 0:46:24Home soon.

0:46:30 > 0:46:32- KNOCK AT DOOR - Come in.

0:46:37 > 0:46:38Sit down, please.

0:46:42 > 0:46:46As you know, I was very interested in the results of Ms Craig's MRI.

0:46:46 > 0:46:48Your diagnosis was correct.

0:46:48 > 0:46:51Where you erred was in telling the patient that it was operable.

0:46:51 > 0:46:55No neurosurgeon would risk so invasive a procedure.

0:46:55 > 0:46:57Well, there must be something...

0:46:57 > 0:46:59I can understand why you need to believe something

0:46:59 > 0:47:03can always be done. Especially in matters neurological.

0:47:03 > 0:47:06To put the patient at her ease, I believe you demonstrated

0:47:06 > 0:47:07the scanner on yourself.

0:47:09 > 0:47:11The radiographer saw the result of your scan.

0:47:11 > 0:47:13Out of concern, she forwarded it to me.

0:47:16 > 0:47:19As you are no doubt aware, you have a brain tumour.

0:47:28 > 0:47:29Luc, I've made a decision.

0:47:29 > 0:47:32- Have you? Can I tell you mine first? - No.

0:47:32 > 0:47:37Well, I've spoken to Hanssen and I've accepted the contract.

0:47:40 > 0:47:42Who'd have thought, Luc Hemingway tamed at last.

0:47:42 > 0:47:45Right. Sushi. Tonight. No arguments.

0:47:45 > 0:47:48- He's one of us now. See? Marvellous. - Thank you.

0:47:48 > 0:47:50So what was your decision?

0:47:50 > 0:47:52No more nights on a single bed.

0:47:54 > 0:47:56It's not a big deal or anything.

0:47:56 > 0:47:59Yours is really convenient but mine is more comfortable so...

0:48:08 > 0:48:10The scan...

0:48:10 > 0:48:13it showed no change in the tumour - it hasn't changed for years.

0:48:13 > 0:48:14Can't I just go back to work?

0:48:14 > 0:48:15You know that's out of the question.

0:48:15 > 0:48:17I realise I should have told you...

0:48:20 > 0:48:22Doctor Lo, sooner or later your condition

0:48:22 > 0:48:24will put a patient at risk.

0:48:25 > 0:48:29It was against the ethics of this profession not to divulge it.

0:48:29 > 0:48:33I refused an operation when I was 18 to remove the tumour.

0:48:33 > 0:48:34Do you want to know why?

0:48:34 > 0:48:36Because of the risk of brain damage.

0:48:36 > 0:48:38Dr Lo...

0:48:38 > 0:48:40That's how much I wanted to be a doctor!

0:48:40 > 0:48:43Please don't take that away from me.

0:48:43 > 0:48:45That will be a decision for the Trust.

0:48:46 > 0:48:47Please.

0:48:49 > 0:48:52Doctor Lo, let us not leap to conclusions.

0:48:53 > 0:48:56You will need a neurological assessment.

0:48:56 > 0:48:57When we know the results of that,

0:48:57 > 0:49:00then we can decide what's the best course of action to take.

0:49:01 > 0:49:04So I can go back to work as normal until then?

0:49:04 > 0:49:08No. I'm sorry, you can't.

0:49:08 > 0:49:12I have to suspend you from duty with immediate effect.

0:49:21 > 0:49:24Mr Hamilton? I just need to change your dressing.

0:49:24 > 0:49:26I'd prefer a nurse other than you to change my dressing.

0:49:26 > 0:49:28I'm sure you understand.

0:49:29 > 0:49:31Fine.

0:49:31 > 0:49:34I do have to just go over a few things with you before you leave.

0:49:35 > 0:49:37Pain management, wound care...

0:49:37 > 0:49:41Time was a nurse abused a patient, his feet wouldn't touch the ground.

0:49:41 > 0:49:44Some people are unsackable, aren't they?

0:49:44 > 0:49:47Okey-dokey. I'm just going to leave these here

0:49:47 > 0:49:49and you can read them in your own time...

0:49:49 > 0:49:52if you want. I'll send over another nurse when one is free.

0:49:52 > 0:49:56In the meantime, if you wouldn't mind signing for this medication

0:49:56 > 0:49:59- then we're done.- Leave it there, I'll sign when I'm ready.

0:49:59 > 0:50:00I'd prefer if you sign it now.

0:50:00 > 0:50:04- I said...- I'm asking you politely to sign this now.

0:50:04 > 0:50:06I said I'd sign it when I'm ready!

0:50:06 > 0:50:10Is this what I get for having the temerity to complain?

0:50:10 > 0:50:12- What's the problem here?- Do you think I don't know what's going on?

0:50:12 > 0:50:15Consultant for 35 years. Teach the old gimmer a lesson.

0:50:15 > 0:50:17See how he reacts to someone like that.

0:50:17 > 0:50:19Somebody like what?

0:50:19 > 0:50:22I want my son down here. I want to see him now!

0:50:22 > 0:50:24Jeremy, you didn't answer my question.

0:50:24 > 0:50:26I think it's best if we let this one go.

0:50:26 > 0:50:28Someone like you. Professional Nancy boy.

0:50:28 > 0:50:31- You can't use language like that. - Like what?

0:50:31 > 0:50:33- You know what I'm talking about. - I want my son down here.

0:50:33 > 0:50:34I want to see him now!

0:50:36 > 0:50:37'OK, we know what's wrong with you.'

0:50:37 > 0:50:41You have a pulmonary embolism blocking the artery

0:50:41 > 0:50:42to your left lung.

0:50:42 > 0:50:45We need to wait and see how it responds to anticoagulants.

0:50:45 > 0:50:48I have mates who hate rugby but they know all the rules.

0:50:48 > 0:50:51If you're anything like me, you've probably banged on about

0:50:51 > 0:50:54ballooning so much your mate could land the thing in his sleep.

0:50:54 > 0:50:56So why hasn't he?

0:50:56 > 0:50:58Couldn't open the parachute valve.

0:51:00 > 0:51:02Dan, it's your dad, he's going crazy.

0:51:06 > 0:51:09Give the buffer the dodgy nurse, bet on how much it'll raise his B/P,

0:51:09 > 0:51:13then dump on him from a great sanctimonious height

0:51:13 > 0:51:14when he complains. I know the tricks.

0:51:14 > 0:51:16Dad, this isn't helping.

0:51:16 > 0:51:19Daniel. Get my clothes! Had enough of this place.

0:51:19 > 0:51:20We need to change your dressing.

0:51:20 > 0:51:23- I did offer to change...- Stay out of this! Please? Can you do that?

0:51:23 > 0:51:26My son is capable of changing a bandage, thank you.

0:51:26 > 0:51:28Your son is monitoring a post-op patient.

0:51:28 > 0:51:31You think I'd let myself be treated by him so you could all laugh?

0:51:31 > 0:51:34- Mr Hamilton, I'm sorry that you feel this way...- Look at him.

0:51:34 > 0:51:35Rugger player? Give me a break!

0:51:35 > 0:51:38- Dad, that's enough. - He was only in it for the showers!

0:51:38 > 0:51:40- Will you please stop?! - You raise your voice to me?

0:51:48 > 0:51:50Simon is a good, compassionate

0:51:50 > 0:51:51professional and your behaviour,

0:51:51 > 0:51:54I'm ashamed to say, has probably lost him his job.

0:51:54 > 0:51:56Are you going to stand there

0:51:56 > 0:51:58and take the side of a fruit against your own father?!

0:51:58 > 0:52:00A fruit?

0:52:00 > 0:52:03When I was a boy, I always used to wonder why you were so angry

0:52:03 > 0:52:04when you called somebody that.

0:52:04 > 0:52:07What was wrong with them? Had to be something bad, something dirty.

0:52:07 > 0:52:09All those words - "Nancy boy", "bender".

0:52:11 > 0:52:14A boy looks to his father to show him how to be a man.

0:52:14 > 0:52:15I loved you so much.

0:52:15 > 0:52:17I tried so hard to be the man you told me to be,

0:52:17 > 0:52:19but all those hate-filled words, Dad,

0:52:19 > 0:52:21that was me you were describing,

0:52:21 > 0:52:23your own son.

0:52:23 > 0:52:26I'm not "confused". I'm not experimenting. I'm not bisexual.

0:52:26 > 0:52:27I'm gay.

0:52:27 > 0:52:31And the only thing I regret is how many decent people

0:52:31 > 0:52:33I betrayed before I could say that.

0:53:08 > 0:53:11I'm sorry, Lainey, they won't be able to operate.

0:53:11 > 0:53:15Will I have to go to another hospital?

0:53:15 > 0:53:18No-one will do it. It doesn't merit the risk.

0:53:23 > 0:53:26We can offer you some course in speech therapy.

0:53:28 > 0:53:30Maybe you can get some compensation...

0:53:30 > 0:53:35I don't want compensation! I want to be myself again!

0:53:35 > 0:53:37I want to be myself...

0:53:56 > 0:53:58Embolus responding to treatment. Good.

0:54:09 > 0:54:11What you did back there...

0:54:14 > 0:54:16Yeah...about time.

0:54:32 > 0:54:34Ben...look.

0:54:39 > 0:54:41He must have opened the parachute valve.

0:54:41 > 0:54:43Look at the way he's using the burner...

0:54:43 > 0:54:46putting it down like a baby.

0:54:46 > 0:54:48You must've bored him rigid.

0:54:51 > 0:54:54Yeah, I must have.

0:54:56 > 0:54:59I'd like you to take this down to neurology for me.

0:54:59 > 0:55:00Sure.

0:55:06 > 0:55:07Hell of a floor show.

0:55:07 > 0:55:09Who's going to tell Chantelle?

0:55:09 > 0:55:11She's going to be heartbroken, you know that?

0:55:11 > 0:55:13You saw what Jeremy was like and now you're

0:55:13 > 0:55:16dismissing her because she wasn't prepared to stand for it.

0:55:16 > 0:55:17I liked that.

0:55:17 > 0:55:18What?

0:55:18 > 0:55:20Didn't know she had it in her.

0:55:21 > 0:55:22But...I just saw Simon...

0:55:22 > 0:55:26Yeah, I think we should keep them both.

0:55:26 > 0:55:28Right...good.

0:55:29 > 0:55:33Erm, how're you going to explain that to Hanssen?

0:56:18 > 0:56:19Can I just say...?

0:56:19 > 0:56:22Did you really mean all that or were you just saying it

0:56:22 > 0:56:23to wind up your old man?

0:56:25 > 0:56:27Waited my whole life to say that.

0:56:29 > 0:56:31Well, you didn't say it very well.

0:56:31 > 0:56:36I mean, where was the marching band? The chorus line?

0:56:36 > 0:56:38You could've at least finished on a song.

0:56:38 > 0:56:41HE LAUGHS

0:56:41 > 0:56:44Are there classes? Got a lot of catching up to do.

0:56:47 > 0:56:49Not that much.

0:56:52 > 0:56:54Dan...

0:56:54 > 0:56:56I'll wait for you.
