0:00:37 > 0:00:40Here's to the Hertzig Three trial.

0:00:40 > 0:00:42This could help Aisha.

0:00:42 > 0:00:43At some point, maybe.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45She doesn't have the time to wait.

0:00:45 > 0:00:47It's just a prototype - untested.

0:00:47 > 0:00:49Let's do it.

0:00:49 > 0:00:50As soon as possible.

0:00:51 > 0:00:52It's going to work.

0:00:52 > 0:00:54Congratulations, Mr Hope.

0:00:54 > 0:00:55Fancy going for a drink?

0:00:55 > 0:00:57I'd love to but, er...

0:00:57 > 0:00:59I kind of have some plans.

0:01:00 > 0:01:02You woke up early to bake?

0:01:02 > 0:01:04I always do it before exams and tests.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06When I'm a bit nervous, it seems to help.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09I find practising seems to help.

0:01:09 > 0:01:11Don't doubt yourself, Lilah, you don't need to.

0:01:11 > 0:01:12Thank you.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29# ..leave the past behind

0:01:29 > 0:01:33# I can see no way, I can see no way... #

0:01:37 > 0:01:38Aisha?

0:01:38 > 0:01:41- What do you think the problem is? - We'll find out soon enough.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43- Could it be the Hertzig? - I've no idea.

0:01:43 > 0:01:47- What'll it mean for the trial if it fails?- Oliver, I don't know!

0:01:47 > 0:01:49- Sorry.- Forget the trial. This is about a young woman's life.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52- Of course.- I'm due in theatre...

0:01:52 > 0:01:54- I'll keep you posted.- Please do.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56And how long have you been like this?

0:01:56 > 0:01:58- A few days...- A few days?!

0:01:58 > 0:02:00You're worse than Elliot.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02Yeah, well, you should have called sooner...

0:02:02 > 0:02:04I know, I know...

0:02:04 > 0:02:06So, why didn't you?

0:02:06 > 0:02:08I had other things on my mind.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10Like what?

0:02:10 > 0:02:11Doesn't matter.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14'Doors opening. Lift going up.'

0:02:16 > 0:02:18'Doors closing.'

0:02:27 > 0:02:30Looking very furtive, Mr Griffin.

0:02:30 > 0:02:31- Sorry?- Nothing.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35Say hello to Sinjin.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37Oh, I didn't know you were a cat person.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39Very independent creatures.

0:02:39 > 0:02:40Really?

0:02:40 > 0:02:42Unlike dogs. And men.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45Right.

0:02:45 > 0:02:47Well...

0:02:47 > 0:02:49Sinjin and I have been together 20 years now.

0:02:49 > 0:02:51Longer than most marriages.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54You're the expert in that department.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56- Pardon?- Very poorly, aren't you, Sinjee?

0:02:56 > 0:02:58Oh, dear.

0:02:58 > 0:02:59Couldn't leave him home alone.

0:02:59 > 0:03:02Strictly speaking, it is against hospital regulations

0:03:02 > 0:03:04to have him on the premises.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06Mr Griffin, you do disappoint me.

0:03:06 > 0:03:10I thought you were a maverick, not a Health and Safety merchant.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13'Doors opening. Lift going up.'

0:03:16 > 0:03:18My two favourite girls...

0:03:18 > 0:03:19I ran into Aisha downstairs.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21- Happy birthday.- It's your birthday?

0:03:21 > 0:03:23- How're you feeling? - ..and she gets to spend it with...

0:03:23 > 0:03:25- Bit ropey.- ..her favourite people.

0:03:25 > 0:03:26- We need to get some fluids in...- OK.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28- How did you know? - I clocked the DOB on the file.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31..and we'll get you down for a scan.

0:03:31 > 0:03:33- What a pro!- Come on then, smiler...

0:03:49 > 0:03:52PAGER BEEPS

0:03:57 > 0:04:00# Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda... #

0:04:00 > 0:04:02Morning, Stu.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04How are you diddling, gorgeous?

0:04:04 > 0:04:06I'm fine. And yourself?

0:04:06 > 0:04:09- Not bad.- How's the pain?

0:04:09 > 0:04:11You know, it eases off when you're around.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14- Yeah, sure.- Guts are still aching, though...

0:04:14 > 0:04:16- Any more vomiting?- No, no...

0:04:18 > 0:04:20So, what's the verdict?

0:04:20 > 0:04:22Well, we'll run some more tests...

0:04:22 > 0:04:24- More tests?- Afraid so.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27Any chance of a bit of grub in the meantime?

0:04:27 > 0:04:28Not yet.

0:04:28 > 0:04:30Oh! My stomach thinks my throat's been cut.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32Patience is a virtue, Stuart.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35- I'm not big on virtue. - You do surprise me(!)

0:04:35 > 0:04:37You can surprise me any time, Li-lo!

0:04:37 > 0:04:39HE LAUGHS AND GROANS

0:04:39 > 0:04:41- You free?- Why?

0:04:41 > 0:04:43- You need to do your final assessment.- OK.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46- See you in the office in 15?- Fine.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48- Better make it good. - What's the punch line?

0:04:48 > 0:04:50- I don't do retakes.- Hilarious(!)

0:04:50 > 0:04:52- HE CHUCKLES - I thought so.

0:04:57 > 0:05:00Will you stop treating me like an old bag?!

0:05:00 > 0:05:01Sorry.

0:05:01 > 0:05:03SHE WHEEZES

0:05:03 > 0:05:04Actually...

0:05:04 > 0:05:05Go on, then.

0:05:13 > 0:05:15How's the romance of the century?

0:05:15 > 0:05:17I have no idea what you're talking about.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19He's looking as gorgeous as ever.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22Shall we just concentrate on the job at hand?

0:05:22 > 0:05:24I'd rather concentrate on anything but.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26OK, fair enough.

0:05:26 > 0:05:27So...?

0:05:27 > 0:05:29So, it's fine.

0:05:29 > 0:05:30Only fine?

0:05:32 > 0:05:33OK, it's very fine.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35Enjoy it while it lasts.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38Yeah, well, I'm hoping that'll be quite some time.

0:05:42 > 0:05:43OK...

0:05:43 > 0:05:46The case-based discussion is a chance for us to assess

0:05:46 > 0:05:49your work on a specific patient, look at your investigative...

0:05:49 > 0:05:51Oh...

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Just doing Lilah's CBD.

0:05:53 > 0:05:55Do you mind if I take over?

0:05:56 > 0:05:58- Er...- If that's all right with you?

0:05:58 > 0:05:59Yeah, no problems.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03Cool. I know when I'm not wanted.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23- Before we start... - Can I just say something?

0:06:23 > 0:06:25- Of course.- About last night...- Yeah?

0:06:25 > 0:06:28Can we forget it ever happened?

0:06:28 > 0:06:29- What ever happened?- No, seriously...

0:06:29 > 0:06:32- Sorry.- I don't want any weird atmosphere between us...

0:06:32 > 0:06:34- There won't be.- You sure?

0:06:34 > 0:06:36I was about to say the same thing to you.

0:06:36 > 0:06:38You beat me to the punch.

0:06:40 > 0:06:41Right.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43So...

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Consider the air cleared.

0:06:46 > 0:06:47Will do.

0:06:49 > 0:06:51The floor is yours.

0:06:51 > 0:06:53Um, yep...

0:06:53 > 0:06:57The patient is Stuart Williams, age 70.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00He was admitted yesterday evening with diffuse abdominal pains

0:07:00 > 0:07:02and previous vomiting.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04The abdomen has gradually grown more distended

0:07:04 > 0:07:06and the pain is now generalised...

0:07:06 > 0:07:07How did you proceed?

0:07:07 > 0:07:12We took an abdominal X-ray, FBCs, U and Es and LFTs.

0:07:12 > 0:07:15Any other relevant information?

0:07:15 > 0:07:18He was diagnosed with diabetes 12 years ago.

0:07:18 > 0:07:19Is that significant?

0:07:19 > 0:07:20Yeah, it could be related.

0:07:23 > 0:07:25I wouldn't go down that route.

0:07:26 > 0:07:27Oh.

0:07:27 > 0:07:29OK, fair enough.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31What did you conclude?

0:07:31 > 0:07:33The obstruction is mechanical.

0:07:33 > 0:07:34What type?

0:07:34 > 0:07:36Possibly a tumour.

0:07:36 > 0:07:39And you're basing that theory on...?

0:07:39 > 0:07:41Mainly my examination.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46Would you mind repeating that for me?

0:07:46 > 0:07:48Yeah, fine.

0:07:49 > 0:07:51- Fancy doing something tonight? - Like what?

0:07:51 > 0:07:55I was thinking of...getting naked and fooling around in my hot tub?

0:07:55 > 0:07:56SHE LAUGHS

0:07:56 > 0:07:59You don't have a hot tub!

0:07:59 > 0:08:01Good point.

0:08:01 > 0:08:03- Pizza?- Go on, then.

0:08:03 > 0:08:04Could you two come in, please?

0:08:08 > 0:08:10How can you stand the smell of this place?

0:08:10 > 0:08:13- You get used to it. - Here's trouble...

0:08:13 > 0:08:15- What are your symptoms?- Lilah...

0:08:15 > 0:08:16Leave it to the quacks, will you, love?

0:08:16 > 0:08:18I can't believe you just said that.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20This is Mr Williams' daughter.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22- Look, don't start.- Hi.

0:08:23 > 0:08:24Hello.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26I think she's a bit anxious about her dad.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28So, what's your diagnosis?

0:08:28 > 0:08:30Well, your father was admitted with abdominal pain,

0:08:30 > 0:08:32but we're not sure of the cause yet.

0:08:32 > 0:08:34It must be serious if you kept him in overnight.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Well, not necessarily.

0:08:36 > 0:08:37It's just a bit of gut-ache, Steph.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39- He's nil-by-mouth.- Yes.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42- Don't I know it... - So you're considering surgery?

0:08:42 > 0:08:44- We're keeping our options open... - How's his BP?

0:08:46 > 0:08:48Sorry, are you a medic?

0:08:48 > 0:08:51- No.- No, she's a PhD in Googling.

0:08:51 > 0:08:53I am just a concerned daughter.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56Sneeze and she thinks it's the bubonic plague.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59We'll have a clearer picture when his test results come back.

0:08:59 > 0:09:01- Will that be today? - Look, get off her back, Steph!

0:09:01 > 0:09:04In the meantime, how about I sort you out a nice cuppa?

0:09:07 > 0:09:11The major concern is that the infection is in the pocket of the Hertzig and spreading fast...

0:09:11 > 0:09:13Has it got to come out?

0:09:13 > 0:09:15It's barely functioning.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17So, what are her options?

0:09:17 > 0:09:18We could try the transplant list.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21We could. I doubt they'd consider her in this condition.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23What about a replacement device?

0:09:23 > 0:09:24That'd only get re-infected.

0:09:25 > 0:09:27There is one other possibility.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31- What do you know about the latest Christmas craze?- Sorry?

0:09:31 > 0:09:33My kids are coming over from the States

0:09:33 > 0:09:35and I want to get them something good.

0:09:35 > 0:09:37Well, Furbies are back in.

0:09:37 > 0:09:38- Furbies?- Yes.

0:09:39 > 0:09:41Hola, Senor Delgado.

0:09:41 > 0:09:42Hola.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44How's the pain?

0:09:44 > 0:09:46- Que tal el dolor?- Lo mismo.

0:09:46 > 0:09:47Still the same.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50Hmm. Well, chances are you have appendicitis...

0:09:50 > 0:09:53- Podria ser apendicitis. - Cuando puedo volver a casa?

0:09:53 > 0:09:54When can I get out of here?

0:09:54 > 0:09:57- Well, you may need an operation. - Podria necesitar una operacion.

0:09:57 > 0:09:59Operacion, no. Tengo que ir a casa.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02- No operation, I have to go home. - Where's that?

0:10:02 > 0:10:04- Donde vive?- Buenos Aires.

0:10:04 > 0:10:08- You are a long way from home. - Esta bien lejos de su casa.

0:10:08 > 0:10:10- Estoy aca de negocios. - He's on a business trip.

0:10:10 > 0:10:13- Tengo un vuelo esta noche... - I feel something right there.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15Tengo que tomar ese vuelo.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17Will you let him know that we have to run some more tests

0:10:17 > 0:10:18before we decide on theatre?

0:10:18 > 0:10:21Tenemos que hacerle mas pruebas antes de decidir

0:10:21 > 0:10:23si necesita esa operacion, OK?

0:10:25 > 0:10:27Damn, that accent is hot!

0:10:28 > 0:10:32Your heart is getting progressively weaker.

0:10:32 > 0:10:36There is a procedure we could try, it's called ventricular remodelling.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38Even I haven't heard of that one.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Tara, would you like to explain?

0:10:41 > 0:10:44Yes, it involves removing a portion of your heart

0:10:44 > 0:10:46in order to reduce the size of the chamber.

0:10:46 > 0:10:49You want to cut a piece of my heart out?

0:10:49 > 0:10:52The theory being that if the ventricle's smaller, then...

0:10:52 > 0:10:56Well, it'll make it easier for it to contract and pump blood.

0:10:56 > 0:10:59It's the word "theory" that scares me.

0:10:59 > 0:11:01It is fairly high-risk.

0:11:01 > 0:11:03My alternative being...?

0:11:04 > 0:11:07We attack your infection with antibiotics,

0:11:07 > 0:11:10we manage your ongoing condition, and...

0:11:10 > 0:11:11And what?

0:11:16 > 0:11:18..and hope for the best.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20But chances are I'll die pretty soon?

0:11:22 > 0:11:24I wouldn't want to put a time-scale on it.

0:11:24 > 0:11:27Come on, Professor Hope. This is me you're talking to.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33Months, rather than years.

0:11:35 > 0:11:36Thanks.

0:11:38 > 0:11:40Excuse me?

0:11:40 > 0:11:43- Yes?- Could you take a look at this?

0:11:43 > 0:11:44Sorry, what am I looking at?

0:11:44 > 0:11:46I inputted my dad's symptoms

0:11:46 > 0:11:49and site after site suggested a mechanical blockage of the bowel.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51I wish you hadn't done that.

0:11:51 > 0:11:53You haven't got a monopoly on this stuff!

0:11:53 > 0:11:55Look, the net's full of worst-case scenarios.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58Which, in my dad's case, is cancer.

0:11:58 > 0:12:00- See?- So you don't think it is, then?

0:12:00 > 0:12:03I'd rather not speculate.

0:12:03 > 0:12:04It's a tumour. I know it.

0:12:04 > 0:12:07It could be any number of things.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10I can see in your eyes you think I'm right.

0:12:10 > 0:12:12We've never had anything like this in the family.

0:12:12 > 0:12:14Well, that's a good thing.

0:12:14 > 0:12:18But if it was cancer, then I could have a genetic pre-disposition?

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Please, you're going to drive yourself mad.

0:12:20 > 0:12:22Just chase the results up!

0:12:22 > 0:12:24Sorry, I do have other patients to treat,

0:12:24 > 0:12:27not to mention an assessment with the head honcho.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29I don't give a damn about your assessment!

0:12:29 > 0:12:31- I know, I...- All I care about is my father.

0:12:33 > 0:12:36Look what mummy's got for you...

0:12:36 > 0:12:38Come on, Sinjee, it's your favourite.

0:12:40 > 0:12:41No?

0:12:43 > 0:12:44Worth a try.

0:12:44 > 0:12:45KNOCK AT DOOR

0:12:45 > 0:12:47Enter.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49You...You wanted to see me?

0:12:49 > 0:12:51Professor Hope, welcome.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54Who's this?

0:12:54 > 0:12:56The esteemed Sinjin.

0:12:56 > 0:12:58Looks...very happy there.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01That's your favourite spot, isn't it?

0:13:02 > 0:13:04Anyway...

0:13:05 > 0:13:08Just wanted to check the progress of your artificial heart project.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10Oh, right...

0:13:10 > 0:13:12- The Zelig Five?- Hertzig Three.

0:13:12 > 0:13:14My little joke.

0:13:14 > 0:13:17Ah, you're a fan of Woody Allen?

0:13:17 > 0:13:19God, no! The man married his own step-daughter.

0:13:20 > 0:13:23It's progressing well.

0:13:23 > 0:13:27But your first trial patient was readmitted this morning?

0:13:27 > 0:13:31With a serious cardiac infection, yes.

0:13:31 > 0:13:35Actually the infection has spread to the grafts of the device,

0:13:35 > 0:13:38so we'll have to consider removing it.

0:13:38 > 0:13:39It's all rather messy, isn't it?

0:13:39 > 0:13:43The patient's deterioration was unforeseeable.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46As long as the Trust's reputation for cutting-edge research

0:13:46 > 0:13:48remains intact...?

0:13:48 > 0:13:53- Absolutely.- And the patient's best interests remain the priority...?

0:13:53 > 0:13:55Well, that goes without saying.

0:13:57 > 0:13:59IN CAT'S VOICE: Bye, bye, Professor.

0:14:01 > 0:14:02Yes.

0:14:12 > 0:14:14Decisions, decisions...

0:14:16 > 0:14:18What are you going to do?

0:14:18 > 0:14:19Couldn't tell you.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24What would you do?

0:14:27 > 0:14:30I would be tempted to take the chance.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32You'd have the op?

0:14:32 > 0:14:33Given the alternative...

0:14:35 > 0:14:36Right.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38But I can't tell you which way to jump.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40Maybe I'll just toss a coin...

0:14:41 > 0:14:44Let's talk about something else, shall we?

0:14:44 > 0:14:45Suits me.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49What happened to that interview we were going to do?

0:14:50 > 0:14:52Oh, er...

0:14:52 > 0:14:53I'm still up for it.

0:14:55 > 0:14:56Yeah, but not today, though.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58It's my shot at immortality.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Hardly!

0:15:00 > 0:15:03Might be your last chance to record me for posterity.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07Don't even joke about that.

0:15:07 > 0:15:08Who's joking?

0:15:13 > 0:15:15PHONE BEEPS

0:15:22 > 0:15:24HE SCOFFS

0:15:28 > 0:15:29KNOCK AT DOOR

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Yeah?

0:15:31 > 0:15:34- Do you want a coffee?- No.

0:15:34 > 0:15:35Are you OK?

0:15:36 > 0:15:39Yeah, you can forget about those Furbies.

0:15:39 > 0:15:42- What?- Just got an email from my ex. Christmas is cancelled.

0:15:42 > 0:15:43Why?

0:15:43 > 0:15:47Well, her new BFF just invited them to spend the holidays in Aspen.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49- What?!- On the piste.

0:15:50 > 0:15:51But they're YOUR kids...

0:15:51 > 0:15:54Well, what's a father compared to a friend with a ski lodge?

0:15:54 > 0:15:57- But...- Forget it.

0:15:57 > 0:15:58I got no rights in this situation.

0:15:58 > 0:16:01- I'm sorry.- It's not your fault.

0:16:04 > 0:16:06- Is this your family?- Yeah.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09Homemade card, just like the Amish.

0:16:09 > 0:16:10SHE GIGGLES

0:16:10 > 0:16:12What's funny?

0:16:12 > 0:16:15Your ex-wife looks like a giant.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18Well, that is seven feet of alimony.

0:16:18 > 0:16:21- You must have looked so cute on your wedding day...- Watch it!

0:16:21 > 0:16:23You only come up to her waist!

0:16:25 > 0:16:27Well, maybe that is why it was doomed.

0:16:29 > 0:16:32I just need you to go through the exact same examination

0:16:32 > 0:16:34that you carried out on admission, OK?

0:16:34 > 0:16:35Mr Williams.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39Just need to examine you...

0:16:39 > 0:16:40What, again?

0:16:41 > 0:16:44If you can tell me when you feel any pain...?

0:16:44 > 0:16:46Did you examine the groin?

0:16:46 > 0:16:48- Steady on, Doc. - He said the pain was abdominal.

0:16:48 > 0:16:50Yeah, you know, like the Snowman.

0:16:50 > 0:16:51Try it anyway.

0:16:51 > 0:16:53- Fine.- Hang on a sec!

0:16:53 > 0:16:55What?

0:16:55 > 0:16:58I don't let any Tom, Dick or Harriet at the crown jewels.

0:16:58 > 0:17:00Mr Williams, I...

0:17:00 > 0:17:02I'd rather a fella had a nose, that's all.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04- I've got to do this.- Says who?

0:17:04 > 0:17:07- It's Mr Williams' prerogative. - Thanks, Doc.

0:17:07 > 0:17:10- Would you mind if I...? - No, no, no, no. It's fine by me.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16HE GROANS

0:17:17 > 0:17:20You have an inguinal hernia, Mr Williams.

0:17:20 > 0:17:22- What?!- A hernia?- But he...

0:17:22 > 0:17:24You'll probably need a minor op to put it right.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27Why didn't you tell me it was sore down there?

0:17:27 > 0:17:28It's embarrassing, isn't it?

0:17:28 > 0:17:31Let's get him an ultrasound to check that the obstruction isn't acute

0:17:31 > 0:17:34and let's book a provisional slot in theatre for tomorrow.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36Girls groping your knackers...

0:17:37 > 0:17:38He didn't say a word about...

0:17:38 > 0:17:41I'm just glad you didn't mention his non-existent tumour.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44- OK, we're on. - She's given the green light?

0:17:44 > 0:17:47- I want you to get the first slot you can.- OK.

0:17:47 > 0:17:49You'll both be in there with me.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51- OK, I'll...I'll call them.- Thank you.

0:17:51 > 0:17:53- Er, Professor Hope?- Yes?

0:17:53 > 0:17:55Would it be all right if I interviewed Aisha

0:17:55 > 0:17:57- for my research project?- Today?

0:17:57 > 0:18:00Yes, well she suggested it and she seems really keen...

0:18:00 > 0:18:02- Even so...- It might help take her mind off things

0:18:02 > 0:18:04while she's waiting for the op.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06Fine. Keep it brief, though.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12Ramona, le van a hacer la cesaria este mismo viernes.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15- Es el primer nino?- No. - What are you guys talking about?

0:18:15 > 0:18:18Senor Delgado's wife is about to give birth.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20Ah, that's why he's so keen to get back home.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23She's booked in for a Caesarean on Friday.

0:18:23 > 0:18:25Yo ya me perdi el nacimiento de mi primer hijo.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27No puedo perderme este, doctor.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29He missed the birth of his first child.

0:18:29 > 0:18:31He cannot miss this one.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33- I had a front row seat for all of mine.- Oh!

0:18:33 > 0:18:36Yep, it's like watching a goddamn RTA.

0:18:36 > 0:18:37- Nice.- Que?!

0:18:37 > 0:18:39Nada. Nada, nada...

0:18:39 > 0:18:42Well, good news, Mr D. You don't have appendicitis...

0:18:42 > 0:18:44No tiene apendicitis...

0:18:44 > 0:18:47- ..but you do have an appendix mass... - Tiene infeccion de apendice...

0:18:47 > 0:18:49..which we can treat with antibiotics.

0:18:49 > 0:18:52..que puede ser tratada con antibioticos.

0:18:52 > 0:18:55- Esto significa que me puedo ir? - So he can go home?

0:18:55 > 0:18:57Well, we'll give him the drugs and as soon as he feel up to it,

0:18:57 > 0:18:59he can get on the first flight back home.

0:18:59 > 0:19:01- Le vamos a dar unos antibioticos... - Si?

0:19:01 > 0:19:03..y si se siente mejor, puede tomar ese vuelo.

0:19:06 > 0:19:09Muchas gracias, doctor. Muchas gracias.

0:19:09 > 0:19:10De nada.

0:19:15 > 0:19:16- "De nada."- What?

0:19:16 > 0:19:19You love playing the big hero, don't you?

0:19:19 > 0:19:20- It's a perk of the job.- Yeah?

0:19:20 > 0:19:23- Just like you.- Cheeky monkey!

0:19:23 > 0:19:24You love it.

0:19:25 > 0:19:29# Happy birthday to you

0:19:30 > 0:19:34# Happy birthday to you

0:19:35 > 0:19:39# Happy birthday, dear Aisha

0:19:40 > 0:19:46# Happy birthday to you. #

0:19:46 > 0:19:48- Oh, thanks!- Sorry, no real candles.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51- You're kind of a fire hazard with all the oxygen...- Shall I blow?

0:19:51 > 0:19:53- Please.- Make a wish...

0:20:00 > 0:20:02- Hip-hip...- Hooray!

0:20:02 > 0:20:05- I'll go and get a knife.- Yep. This all your idea, was it?

0:20:05 > 0:20:07Guilty as charged.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10Can you believe she got me a cake when I'm nil-by-mouth?

0:20:10 > 0:20:12- Pure sadism. - We'll save you a slice!

0:20:12 > 0:20:14If I'm still here to eat it...

0:20:16 > 0:20:18PAGER BEEPS

0:20:18 > 0:20:19- Well, that wasn't funny. - Oh, lighten up!

0:20:19 > 0:20:22We'll share a slice later, OK? Excuse me.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28I wish they'd just get on with it.

0:20:28 > 0:20:29I know.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31I can't stand all this waiting.

0:20:31 > 0:20:32Well, if it's any consolation,

0:20:32 > 0:20:35Professor Hope's given us the nod for the interview.

0:20:35 > 0:20:36Great, when?

0:20:36 > 0:20:38- Soon as you like.- Cool.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41Right, cake...

0:20:49 > 0:20:50Mrs Cousins?

0:20:50 > 0:20:52Watch this.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54Brilliant!

0:20:54 > 0:20:56I know we're short-staffed, but...

0:20:56 > 0:20:58Anything I can do to help.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00- Excellent job.- Thanks.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02Bet you're a cat lover, Chantelle.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04- Yeah.- Thought so...

0:21:04 > 0:21:07- Is there something in particular you...?- I'm a people person.

0:21:07 > 0:21:10I don't like to loom in the shadows, waiting to swoop.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12Glad to hear it. Have you seen Doctor Birdwood?

0:21:12 > 0:21:15- She's on a break.- How is our new Antipodean recruit?

0:21:15 > 0:21:16Great!

0:21:16 > 0:21:19If you see her, would you tell her that I'd like a word, please?

0:21:19 > 0:21:22Oh, is it her test results? She's been on about them all day.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24I hope Mr Malick isn't giving her a hard time.

0:21:24 > 0:21:26Mr Griffin's doing it.

0:21:26 > 0:21:27Really?

0:21:29 > 0:21:30Yes...

0:21:30 > 0:21:32But didn't I specifically ask Mr Malick

0:21:32 > 0:21:35to take over the assessment process?

0:21:35 > 0:21:37He was busy.

0:21:37 > 0:21:38I had to step in.

0:21:40 > 0:21:41Oh, I see.

0:21:43 > 0:21:44Ah, well.

0:21:47 > 0:21:50So, you were given the all-clear for leukaemia when you were 15...?

0:21:50 > 0:21:51Yeah.

0:21:51 > 0:21:55..but by then, you'd developed the heart condition...?

0:21:55 > 0:21:56Some girls have all the luck(!)

0:21:58 > 0:22:02And emotionally, how did you cope with the news?

0:22:02 > 0:22:04Just tried to get on with it.

0:22:06 > 0:22:09Did it help to share your concern with others?

0:22:09 > 0:22:12Do you mean with my mum and dad?

0:22:12 > 0:22:13Yeah, initially.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16Suppose so, yeah.

0:22:18 > 0:22:19And what about your partner?

0:22:21 > 0:22:23What about him?

0:22:25 > 0:22:30Well, have you discussed your ongoing treatment with him?

0:22:30 > 0:22:34I'm afraid what Toby wanted was a healthy girlfriend.

0:22:36 > 0:22:38What do you mean?

0:22:39 > 0:22:40I am not going to cry.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46What happened?

0:22:46 > 0:22:48He dumped me.

0:22:51 > 0:22:52I could see it coming.

0:22:55 > 0:22:56How?

0:22:57 > 0:23:01We were surviving on pity ever since he found out.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11I'm sorry.

0:23:11 > 0:23:12Annalese, I got your e-mail.

0:23:12 > 0:23:16Can't say I'm pleased, but I guess that is your prerogative.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18So, I will fly out after New Year's to see the kids.

0:23:18 > 0:23:20And we need to discuss your plans.

0:23:20 > 0:23:23I want to know when you are going to come back to the UK.

0:23:23 > 0:23:25See ya.

0:23:25 > 0:23:28- Just checked the surgical list... - Don't do that!

0:23:28 > 0:23:30- Bit jumpy this morning?- No.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32Heavy night?

0:23:32 > 0:23:33No.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36OK. Anyway, the list...

0:23:36 > 0:23:38Yeah, what about it?

0:23:38 > 0:23:41You had a Mr Delgado provisionally booked in for an appendicectomy...

0:23:41 > 0:23:43Yeah, it turned out to be a mass, so I'm discharging him.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45- Really?- Yeah. - You know he's from Argentina?

0:23:45 > 0:23:47- Mm-hmm. And his wife is heavily pregnant...- So?

0:23:47 > 0:23:50- So, he needs to get back... - Isn't that a tad risky?

0:23:50 > 0:23:52Well, I prescribed cef and met. That should take care of it.

0:23:52 > 0:23:55So long as the mass doesn't become septic and burst...

0:23:55 > 0:23:56Well, he's not showing any sign of abscess...

0:23:56 > 0:23:59..in which case, he'll arrive in Buenos Aires in a body bag.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02How come you are so keen to spend money on unnecessary surgery

0:24:02 > 0:24:03all of a sudden?

0:24:03 > 0:24:06Oh, I'm keen to avoid a international law suit.

0:24:06 > 0:24:09Well, I'm sure he can have the op at home if he ever actually needs it.

0:24:09 > 0:24:12You're sure about that?

0:24:12 > 0:24:14No, Serena, I'm desperately conflicted

0:24:14 > 0:24:16and I really need your guidance on this one.

0:24:19 > 0:24:21It's definitely over?

0:24:21 > 0:24:24Yeah. It's like we were never even together.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28Men can be idiots.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30I don't really blame him.

0:24:30 > 0:24:31No?

0:24:31 > 0:24:35Who wants to waste time holding hands in a hospital waiting room?

0:24:35 > 0:24:37Yeah, but, isn't that what love's about?

0:24:37 > 0:24:39Love's about the truth.

0:24:40 > 0:24:41Yeah?

0:24:41 > 0:24:43Some birthday this is turning out to be.

0:24:45 > 0:24:49Just for once, I wanted everything to be normal.

0:24:49 > 0:24:53Boyfriend, presents, a nice meal...

0:24:53 > 0:24:56And instead I get this!

0:24:56 > 0:24:58I'm so sick of being sick!

0:24:58 > 0:25:01- I know how you feel... - No, you don't!

0:25:01 > 0:25:03- Yeah, I do.- How can you?

0:25:05 > 0:25:06We're more alike than you think.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09Your life is nothing like mine!

0:25:09 > 0:25:12Perfect boyfriend, perfect job...

0:25:12 > 0:25:14You have no idea what it's like to be me.

0:25:14 > 0:25:17- I have, Aisha.- How?

0:25:18 > 0:25:20See? You haven't got a clue.

0:25:20 > 0:25:22You've got your whole life in front of you

0:25:22 > 0:25:24and I'm just the walking dead.

0:25:25 > 0:25:28This was a big mistake. Can you turn that off...?

0:25:30 > 0:25:32..and leave me alone?

0:25:46 > 0:25:48SHE SOBS

0:25:48 > 0:25:50- Tara...?- Yeah?

0:25:50 > 0:25:52- Done the interview yet...?- Yeah.

0:25:52 > 0:25:53How did it go?

0:25:55 > 0:25:56Tara?

0:26:02 > 0:26:05- What's the matter? - Nothing, I'm sorry.

0:26:08 > 0:26:10I'm sorry, Matilda.

0:26:10 > 0:26:12- What for?- I should've cracked on...

0:26:13 > 0:26:15Forget it.

0:26:15 > 0:26:17It's not like you've made a balls up, is it?

0:26:20 > 0:26:21All done.

0:26:21 > 0:26:22Cheers.

0:26:26 > 0:26:29Can you come into the office, please?

0:26:29 > 0:26:31- Got my results?- Yes.

0:26:31 > 0:26:32You can tell me here.

0:26:32 > 0:26:34Er, no, I'd rather that we went into the office.

0:26:34 > 0:26:36No, I can take it.

0:26:36 > 0:26:38Fine.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40So?

0:26:40 > 0:26:42It's a fail.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45- A fail?- Afraid so.

0:26:45 > 0:26:47Because of the misdiagnosis?

0:26:47 > 0:26:49- Yes.- But that wasn't my fault.

0:26:49 > 0:26:52You should have explored all the options.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54Well, how much did I miss out by?

0:26:54 > 0:26:56One, two percent...

0:26:56 > 0:26:59And that was taking the patient's misdirection into account?

0:26:59 > 0:27:01I did my best, believe me...

0:27:02 > 0:27:04What do you mean?

0:27:04 > 0:27:06I pushed it as far as I could.

0:27:06 > 0:27:07Pushed what?

0:27:08 > 0:27:11Pushed is the wrong word...

0:27:11 > 0:27:13Look, I didn't ask for preferential treatment...

0:27:15 > 0:27:16It was a fair mark.

0:27:18 > 0:27:20Right. Thanks.

0:27:28 > 0:27:29- Hi.- Hi.

0:27:29 > 0:27:31Have you seen Tara?

0:27:31 > 0:27:32No, why?

0:27:32 > 0:27:35She disappeared off the ward, crying...

0:27:35 > 0:27:36What?

0:27:37 > 0:27:40She was interviewing Aisha for her research project.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42Something must have gone on between them...

0:27:42 > 0:27:44She was definitely crying?

0:27:44 > 0:27:47Sometimes a case like this can just get to you.

0:27:49 > 0:27:50Dios!

0:27:53 > 0:27:55- Ms Campbell?- Yeah?

0:27:55 > 0:27:57Have you seen Mr Spence?

0:27:57 > 0:27:59No. Problem?

0:27:59 > 0:28:00It's fine...

0:28:00 > 0:28:02- Is that your expert opinion?- No...

0:28:02 > 0:28:06Just translate for me, please. Mr Delgado, how is your pain?

0:28:06 > 0:28:08Como va este dolor?

0:28:08 > 0:28:09- Peor.- Worse.

0:28:09 > 0:28:13- Much worse?- Mucho peor?- Si.

0:28:13 > 0:28:14HE CRIES OUT

0:28:14 > 0:28:18Sorry, no, I'm afraid he is going to need surgery after all.

0:28:18 > 0:28:21Parece que va a necesitar esa operacion.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23El otro doctor dijo que podia irme!

0:28:23 > 0:28:25But the other doctor said he could go home.

0:28:25 > 0:28:28I'm afraid the other doctor was mistaken.

0:28:30 > 0:28:32Go on, tell him.

0:28:33 > 0:28:36Parece que el otro doctor estaba equivocado.

0:28:36 > 0:28:39No. No.

0:28:39 > 0:28:41- This is very serious.- Es grave.

0:28:41 > 0:28:43Yeah, do you think you could actually try

0:28:43 > 0:28:45- and make it sound serious?- I am!

0:28:45 > 0:28:48Or do you only take orders from Senor Spence?

0:28:48 > 0:28:50- Excuse me?- What's going on here?

0:28:50 > 0:28:54I am trying to explain to Mr Delgado that his condition has deteriorated

0:28:54 > 0:28:56and the best course of action is an appendicectomy.

0:28:56 > 0:28:57Serena, he is my patient...

0:28:57 > 0:29:00Yeah, and I'm sure you'll come to the same conclusion.

0:29:00 > 0:29:02- Not necessarily. - For Heaven's sake, Michael!

0:29:03 > 0:29:06All right, I'll take a look at him.

0:29:06 > 0:29:09You are wasting valuable time, and we have been here before.

0:29:12 > 0:29:14How does that feel?

0:29:14 > 0:29:17We don't want another Ritchie Mooney on our hands.

0:29:20 > 0:29:22- All right, fine, have it your way. - Sorry?

0:29:22 > 0:29:24Yeah, I was just trying to get him back home

0:29:24 > 0:29:27in time for the birth of his child but, he's just the father,

0:29:27 > 0:29:29what difference does it make?

0:29:29 > 0:29:31OK, and what was that all about?

0:29:48 > 0:29:50- Please don't. - What happened with Aisha?

0:29:50 > 0:29:53- Nothing. - That's not what Elliot said.

0:29:53 > 0:29:55He just caught me at a bad moment.

0:29:55 > 0:29:57Do you want to talk about it?

0:29:57 > 0:29:58No.

0:30:01 > 0:30:04I know you've put a lot into this case, Tara...

0:30:04 > 0:30:05Which bit of "no" don't you understand?

0:30:19 > 0:30:20Come back to work?

0:30:22 > 0:30:23In a minute.

0:30:34 > 0:30:36Mind if I join you?

0:30:36 > 0:30:37Feel free.

0:30:43 > 0:30:45You having one of those days too?

0:30:48 > 0:30:51I've got a hypothetical for you.

0:30:51 > 0:30:53I'm all ears.

0:30:53 > 0:30:56You've got a junior that you think very highly of...

0:30:56 > 0:30:57OK...

0:30:57 > 0:31:00- You build a great rapport with them...- Yeah?

0:31:00 > 0:31:05..but on the day of their CBD, she doesn't deliver...

0:31:05 > 0:31:07She?

0:31:07 > 0:31:10- The sex is irrelevant... - That'd be a first...

0:31:10 > 0:31:13She's distracted, makes a very poor diagnosis...

0:31:13 > 0:31:15And despite your best efforts,

0:31:15 > 0:31:18you can't quite drag her overall mark up to a pass.

0:31:18 > 0:31:20Exactly.

0:31:20 > 0:31:21Oh, dear.

0:31:21 > 0:31:23What would you do?

0:31:23 > 0:31:24Fail them.

0:31:24 > 0:31:27Even though it's the most borderline of cases?

0:31:27 > 0:31:30You don't do the student, the hospital or your patients any good

0:31:30 > 0:31:34by passing someone whose work doesn't come up to scratch.

0:31:37 > 0:31:39I was hoping you'd say that.

0:31:44 > 0:31:46Ah!

0:31:46 > 0:31:48How did your assessment go?

0:31:49 > 0:31:50Don't want to talk about it.

0:31:50 > 0:31:52Why?

0:31:52 > 0:31:53Take a wild guess.

0:31:53 > 0:31:55You didn't fail...?

0:31:55 > 0:31:57- Yep.- No way!

0:31:57 > 0:31:58- Way.- How come?

0:32:00 > 0:32:02Ask the boss.

0:32:02 > 0:32:03I thought you'd definitely pass.

0:32:04 > 0:32:07Well, maybe Mr Griffin expects a bit more of his team

0:32:07 > 0:32:10than I'm prepared to give.

0:32:10 > 0:32:12Why, what is it he wanted you to do?

0:32:13 > 0:32:17Let's just say it was above and beyond.

0:32:17 > 0:32:20And you think that's why he failed you?

0:32:20 > 0:32:22Well, one minute I'm the teacher's pet,

0:32:22 > 0:32:26the next minute I'm wearing the dunce's cap.

0:32:26 > 0:32:28Maybe you've got it wrong?

0:32:28 > 0:32:29Maybe.

0:32:29 > 0:32:32I'm sure Mr Griffin doesn't bear grudges.

0:32:32 > 0:32:34- KNOCK AT DOOR - Come in.

0:32:44 > 0:32:47I wanted to apologise for earlier.

0:32:48 > 0:32:51I'd prefer an explanation to an apology.

0:32:52 > 0:32:55I was trying to empathise with Aisha, but...

0:32:57 > 0:32:58But...?

0:32:59 > 0:33:02- ..I may have misjudged the situation.- How?

0:33:04 > 0:33:07I compared my own situation to hers.

0:33:08 > 0:33:10- You told her about...?- No.

0:33:10 > 0:33:12Almost.

0:33:13 > 0:33:17That poor girl has had to make a monumental decision today...

0:33:17 > 0:33:18I know.

0:33:18 > 0:33:20The last thing she needs is to be burdened

0:33:20 > 0:33:23- by somebody else's problems. - I realise that.

0:33:23 > 0:33:26You can't afford this kind of emotional over-involvement.

0:33:32 > 0:33:36Maybe it's best if you don't come into theatre today.

0:33:36 > 0:33:38What? No, please...

0:33:38 > 0:33:40- I'm sorry.- I'll be fine.

0:33:40 > 0:33:43No. I can't trust you in there.

0:33:45 > 0:33:49Me quiero ir pa' casa, pero me tienen que operar aca...

0:33:49 > 0:33:51Yo me perdi el nacimiento...

0:33:51 > 0:33:53It was the right decision.

0:33:53 > 0:33:55- Sorry?- Mr Delgado.

0:33:55 > 0:33:56Oh.

0:33:56 > 0:33:59Look, I know you want to please Michael, but...

0:33:59 > 0:34:01What do you mean?

0:34:01 > 0:34:04- Don't give me that coy look! - I don't need to please anybody.

0:34:04 > 0:34:06Well, he certainly looks pretty satisfied.

0:34:06 > 0:34:09Well, right up until his little hissy fit, that is.

0:34:09 > 0:34:11Sorry, I have work to do.

0:34:11 > 0:34:13Seriously, watch yourself.

0:34:13 > 0:34:15Why?

0:34:16 > 0:34:21Our Mr Spence is like some flash, overpriced sports car,

0:34:21 > 0:34:23all sleek lines and fancy features.

0:34:23 > 0:34:26But you try taking him on a long trip,

0:34:26 > 0:34:28and you'll soon be running on empty.

0:34:28 > 0:34:32Why do you people always talk in riddles?

0:34:32 > 0:34:34OK, well here's another one for you.

0:34:34 > 0:34:37You should be aware that his main interest in you

0:34:37 > 0:34:40might just be those...

0:34:40 > 0:34:41Sorry?

0:34:41 > 0:34:43He can't resist a nice set of jugs...

0:34:55 > 0:34:57MONITOR BEEPS REGULARLY

0:35:01 > 0:35:02I just wanted to wish you luck.

0:35:02 > 0:35:04Thanks.

0:35:06 > 0:35:08Sorry for having a go at you.

0:35:08 > 0:35:10It should be me apologising.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12Are you going to be in theatre?

0:35:15 > 0:35:16Not this time.

0:35:19 > 0:35:21I'm scared.

0:35:24 > 0:35:25Don't be.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30What did you mean before?

0:35:31 > 0:35:35- What?- When you said you knew how I felt...?

0:35:35 > 0:35:38- Nothing.- But you kept saying it, like...

0:35:38 > 0:35:40- Honestly, it was just trying to... - The more I think about it,

0:35:40 > 0:35:42the more it felt like you meant it.

0:35:42 > 0:35:44OK, all you need to think about is just getting better.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46- What is it?- Nothing.

0:35:46 > 0:35:48- Liar!- Please...

0:35:48 > 0:35:49Are you sick?

0:35:51 > 0:35:53You are, aren't you?

0:35:54 > 0:35:56Does Oliver know?

0:35:56 > 0:35:59Oh, Tara...

0:36:01 > 0:36:03- You ready for the off?- Yeah.

0:36:06 > 0:36:08To be continued.

0:36:23 > 0:36:25Mr Griffin?

0:36:25 > 0:36:27Sorry, Lilah, can this wait? I've really just got...

0:36:31 > 0:36:34Why did you take over my CBD from Mr Malick?

0:36:35 > 0:36:38I just wanted to...finish what we'd started.

0:36:38 > 0:36:39Really?

0:36:42 > 0:36:45What other possible reason could there be?

0:36:45 > 0:36:47To make sure I failed.

0:36:50 > 0:36:52Why would I want to do that?

0:36:53 > 0:36:56Maybe I wasn't grateful enough.

0:36:58 > 0:37:00For what?

0:37:00 > 0:37:02You letting me retake my other assessment.

0:37:03 > 0:37:04Grateful?

0:37:06 > 0:37:07Last night...

0:37:10 > 0:37:11I thought we'd moved on from...

0:37:11 > 0:37:13So did I.

0:37:15 > 0:37:18You think this is some kind of elaborate punishment?

0:37:18 > 0:37:19You said it.

0:37:22 > 0:37:26You're entitled to your opinion, but my decision still stands.

0:37:36 > 0:37:38We've got to stop meeting like this.

0:37:38 > 0:37:39Hope so.

0:37:39 > 0:37:42I don't need to explain how the anaesthetic works, do I?

0:37:42 > 0:37:44Been there, got the t-shirt...

0:37:44 > 0:37:46OK. See you in a few hours.

0:37:46 > 0:37:48OK?

0:37:51 > 0:37:52Oh, wait, sorry...

0:37:52 > 0:37:55You can't go into theatre with this. Sorry.

0:37:55 > 0:37:57- Oliver...- Yeah?

0:37:57 > 0:37:59Make sure you look after Tara.

0:38:04 > 0:38:06Will do. Thank you.

0:38:14 > 0:38:16My dad's just told me it's a hernia!

0:38:16 > 0:38:19Pretty good news in the circumstances.

0:38:19 > 0:38:21Why did you say it was cancer?

0:38:21 > 0:38:22What?!

0:38:22 > 0:38:24You told me you thought it was a tumour...

0:38:24 > 0:38:25That is total...

0:38:25 > 0:38:28Do you enjoy scaring the life out of people?

0:38:28 > 0:38:30- I didn't, I just...- You've cost me a fortune, you have...

0:38:30 > 0:38:34- How?- I've been out and paid for all kinds of tests.

0:38:34 > 0:38:37Cos of some drongo with a blog?

0:38:37 > 0:38:41You know how long it was before they diagnosed my mum's illness?

0:38:41 > 0:38:43- No.- Seven years.

0:38:43 > 0:38:46Who knows how much time we could have had with her if...

0:38:46 > 0:38:48I'm sorry, but that's nothing to do with me.

0:38:48 > 0:38:52- Typical.- And I did not tell you your dad had cancer.

0:38:53 > 0:38:56I could have your job for this.

0:38:56 > 0:38:57Join the queue, mate.

0:39:07 > 0:39:10Three centimetres seems to be the standard excision...

0:39:16 > 0:39:18- Dr Valentine?- Sorry.

0:39:20 > 0:39:23- How's it going?- It's going fine so far...

0:39:25 > 0:39:30I think we should go for an extra 50ml reduction in capacity...

0:39:37 > 0:39:40- This had better be good. - Wait and see.

0:39:43 > 0:39:49Senor Delgado, you appear to have made a...Lazarus-like recovery.

0:39:49 > 0:39:52Parece que se ha recuperado como el mismisimo Lazaro...

0:39:52 > 0:39:56- Si. Me siento bien. Puedo irme? - He says he's feeling much better.

0:39:56 > 0:39:58Well, everything seemed to have settled down...

0:39:58 > 0:40:00- So you can discharge him?- No.

0:40:00 > 0:40:02- Why not?- He's already booked into theatre.

0:40:02 > 0:40:04- So?- It's a done deal.

0:40:04 > 0:40:07- Because Ms Campbell says so? - Because...

0:40:07 > 0:40:09- Maybe she was right about you. - Que pasa?

0:40:09 > 0:40:11Wait, what is that supposed to mean?

0:40:11 > 0:40:13She said you don't see things through.

0:40:13 > 0:40:16- Really, what else did she say? - Por favor, me siento bien...

0:40:16 > 0:40:19- That you only want me for my breasts.- Ridiculous!

0:40:19 > 0:40:22- Tengo que estar con mi mujer... - So, you don't like them?

0:40:22 > 0:40:24No, they're my favourite thing about you...

0:40:24 > 0:40:26This man needs to be with his family.

0:40:26 > 0:40:28Are you going to help him or not?

0:40:28 > 0:40:30Love's about... love's about the truth.

0:43:06 > 0:43:07In what way?

0:43:13 > 0:43:15You don't know what she's put me through.

0:43:35 > 0:43:38- Doctor Birdwood around? - She's on her break.- Oh.

0:43:38 > 0:43:40- She needed it, to be honest.- Really?

0:43:53 > 0:43:56Well, I don't know exactly what's gone on,

0:43:56 > 0:44:00- but she reckons he asked her to go above and beyond.- Yes?

0:44:00 > 0:44:04She didn't and now she's worried that's why he failed her.

0:45:03 > 0:45:05I asked you to do something.

0:45:05 > 0:45:06Ignore her.

0:45:06 > 0:45:09Michael, I am not prepared to risk lives so you can impress

0:45:09 > 0:45:12- your latest bit of fluff. - My latest bit of what?

0:45:12 > 0:45:17- Is the plan to work your way through the entire hospital?- Ignore her too.

0:45:17 > 0:45:19You see this woman?

0:45:19 > 0:45:22She's fantastic and she has more life in her little finger

0:45:22 > 0:45:26than any of you strait-laced, neurotic, Brits put together.

0:45:26 > 0:45:30So whatever we do or don't do inside or outside of this hospital

0:45:30 > 0:45:31is none of your business.

0:45:31 > 0:45:35Well you've made that abundantly clear to the whole ward.

0:45:35 > 0:45:36Great, now as for this man,

0:45:36 > 0:45:39I am sending him home so he can hold his wife's hand.

0:45:42 > 0:45:43Senor Delgado...

0:45:45 > 0:45:46..vaya con dios.

0:45:51 > 0:45:54- Doctor...- What now?- It's my dad.

0:45:54 > 0:45:56MAN MOANS

0:45:56 > 0:45:59- This is killing me. - All right, let me get this mask on.

0:45:59 > 0:46:02- What's wrong with him?- Could you get some morphine please?

0:46:02 > 0:46:08All right, it's OK, we'll sort you out, we'll sort you out.

0:46:11 > 0:46:12Excuse me, we need some help here.

0:46:14 > 0:46:15What's the problem?

0:46:15 > 0:46:17- I'm fine. - That wasn't what I asked.

0:46:17 > 0:46:21- Mr William's pain is now severe, his pulse is rising.- Don't you die on me.

0:46:21 > 0:46:24- And he's started vomiting. - Get him prepped for theatre.

0:46:24 > 0:46:29If you'd diagnosed this earlier he'd be in post-op recovery by now!

0:46:29 > 0:46:31It's OK.

0:46:36 > 0:46:40- You OK? Oliver, can you notify the parents?- Yes, of course.- Thank you.

0:46:50 > 0:46:52Tara, you should go home.

0:46:53 > 0:46:56I need to work. Please.

0:46:56 > 0:46:59OK, spend the rest of the day in the wet lab.

0:47:00 > 0:47:02Thank you.

0:47:22 > 0:47:26- Well, what was that for? - All those things you said.

0:47:26 > 0:47:29Well, you were there for me too.

0:47:29 > 0:47:31I thought you wanted to keep us a secret.

0:47:31 > 0:47:34I don't think I've ever had anyone stand up for me like that before.

0:47:34 > 0:47:37- They'll all be talking about us now. - Let 'em talk.

0:47:39 > 0:47:43Can hold the hernia up while I separate the vessels, please?

0:47:50 > 0:47:51Now hold the sac.

0:47:55 > 0:47:58- Will you hold still, please.- Sorry.

0:47:58 > 0:48:00Unless you want me to butcher him.

0:48:00 > 0:48:03So what are your plans for Christmas now?

0:48:03 > 0:48:06I don't know, Chinese takeaway, Sound Of Music...

0:48:06 > 0:48:09You really miss your children, aren't you?

0:48:09 > 0:48:11Yeah, like you wouldn't believe.

0:48:11 > 0:48:14I can't have my Miguelito at home alone.

0:48:14 > 0:48:17I don't know, maybe I'll volunteer for work.

0:48:17 > 0:48:21Or you can spend Christmas at my place.

0:48:21 > 0:48:26- Seriously? - Yeah. Come on, it'll be great.

0:48:28 > 0:48:30OK, yeah. Thank you.

0:48:32 > 0:48:33Come in.

0:48:35 > 0:48:37How are you bearing up?

0:48:39 > 0:48:42I hate losing any patient but...

0:48:42 > 0:48:44She was special to you.

0:48:44 > 0:48:45To all of us.

0:48:45 > 0:48:48- I'm sorry.- Thank you.

0:48:50 > 0:48:54- The Trust will need your comments on the case.- Why?

0:48:54 > 0:48:57Because she was fitted with your Hertzig device.

0:48:57 > 0:49:01Aisha Bose died because her heart was chronically infected.

0:49:01 > 0:49:03- I understand that.- But...?

0:49:05 > 0:49:09If we're spending vast sums of money on experimental technology,

0:49:09 > 0:49:12then we need to see it's working successfully.

0:49:12 > 0:49:14You do actually have to be ill enough to need

0:49:14 > 0:49:17the device in the first place.

0:49:17 > 0:49:20Perhaps we could find a patient who's marginally less ill

0:49:20 > 0:49:23next time?

0:49:25 > 0:49:30When I came to and saw you staring at me I thought I'd died

0:49:30 > 0:49:35- and gone to heaven. - Course you did, Stu.

0:49:39 > 0:49:41Finish up OK?

0:49:44 > 0:49:46Even I can put a few stitches in.

0:49:47 > 0:49:51I thought that we'd agreed that things were OK between us.

0:49:51 > 0:49:53We did.

0:49:56 > 0:49:59But obviously thing's aren't quite that simple.

0:49:59 > 0:50:04- No.- So if this situation is too... awkward for you...

0:50:05 > 0:50:08It's a lot more than awkward...

0:50:08 > 0:50:12Then I'd understand if you wanted to transfer to another ward.

0:50:13 > 0:50:17- What?- Obviously, I'd give you an excellent reference...

0:50:17 > 0:50:19- You want me out?- No.

0:50:19 > 0:50:26- I want you to know you have the option to move if...- Gee, thanks.

0:50:29 > 0:50:33You don't have to decide right now. Just give it some thought.

0:50:54 > 0:50:57- How're you feeling? - All the better for seeing you.

0:50:57 > 0:51:01- D'you ever let up? - I know you did your best for me.

0:51:03 > 0:51:06- Wasn't good enough.- It was my fault for messing you around.

0:51:06 > 0:51:08Thanks.

0:51:08 > 0:51:14- Ah, I got something for you.- Aye-aye.

0:51:14 > 0:51:18It's a phone number, a psychotherapist I know.

0:51:18 > 0:51:21I know I'm crackers about you but I...

0:51:21 > 0:51:25- It's for your daughter.- Oh. - She needs help. This guy's good.- Ta.

0:51:28 > 0:51:32Just to warn you, our Steph told me she's put a complaint in.

0:51:32 > 0:51:39- Who to? - The big boss. Mrs...Cousins, is it?

0:51:40 > 0:51:43The cherry is on the cake(!)

0:52:00 > 0:52:03- Erm, Dr Birdwood...- That was quick. - Sorry?

0:52:03 > 0:52:07- Nothing.- Could I have a word?

0:52:07 > 0:52:10- If this is about the complaint... - Don't worry about that.

0:52:10 > 0:52:14- It was a complete misunderstanding. - I've persuaded her to withdraw it.

0:52:15 > 0:52:20- Seriously?- She struck me as somewhat delusional.

0:52:20 > 0:52:22Thanks.

0:52:22 > 0:52:26But I hear you may have a more worrying issue on your hands.

0:52:26 > 0:52:28Really?

0:52:28 > 0:52:36- Concerning... Mr Griffin. - Who told you that?

0:52:36 > 0:52:38I want you to know,

0:52:38 > 0:52:41whatever we discuss will remain in the strictest confidence.

0:52:41 > 0:52:44What exactly are we discussing?

0:52:44 > 0:52:48I was a nurse once upon a time and I had to fend off the unwanted

0:52:48 > 0:52:51attentions of many a rampaging consultant.

0:52:51 > 0:52:55- I don't want to get into any sort of...- I understand your concerns.

0:52:55 > 0:52:58You're a long way from home, you're struggling to

0:52:58 > 0:53:02keep your head above water, but that doesn't make you fair game.

0:53:04 > 0:53:06Too right it doesn't...

0:53:06 > 0:53:08This is your career we're talking about.

0:53:08 > 0:53:11You don't have to tell me that.

0:53:11 > 0:53:15- Have you discussed your concerns with Mr Griffin?- I tried to.

0:53:15 > 0:53:20- And how did he respond? - He suggested that I move wards.

0:53:20 > 0:53:23- Why on earth should you be thrown out on your ear?- You tell me.

0:53:23 > 0:53:27Let me assure you, that won't happen.

0:53:27 > 0:53:33You sit tight and I promise you, I will sort this out.

0:53:56 > 0:53:57How're you doing?

0:53:57 > 0:53:59I'm OK.

0:54:05 > 0:54:08I spoke to Aisha's parents.

0:54:10 > 0:54:13- How did they take it? - Much as you'd expect.

0:54:16 > 0:54:19Must be terrible having to watch your child fight so hard

0:54:19 > 0:54:21- for so long.- Yeah.

0:54:24 > 0:54:25She was so resilient.

0:54:27 > 0:54:29I know you thought a lot of her Tara...

0:54:31 > 0:54:34..but you cannot let yourself get into this state over a patient.

0:54:34 > 0:54:36Have you just shown up to lecture me?

0:54:36 > 0:54:40No...I'm worried about you.

0:54:40 > 0:54:43I thought you wanted me to be more emotional.

0:54:43 > 0:54:46- I don't want you to trash your career.- By caring?

0:54:46 > 0:54:50Compassion's one thing but you cannot tear yourself apart...

0:54:50 > 0:54:52- You think you have me figured out.- I'm not saying that...

0:54:52 > 0:54:55But you haven't the faintest idea about me.

0:54:56 > 0:54:58OK, what's that supposed to mean?

0:54:58 > 0:55:02- Nothing.- No, go on...- Forget it.

0:55:02 > 0:55:05- Here we go, the big shut out. - Yeah, that's right.

0:55:05 > 0:55:08Well pardon me for trying to support you.

0:55:08 > 0:55:09Did I ask for your support?

0:55:15 > 0:55:17- No.- Well then...

0:55:17 > 0:55:19And the more I think about it, the more I wonder

0:55:19 > 0:55:21- whether I'm the one over-involved.- Really.

0:55:21 > 0:55:24Every time I think we're getting somewhere

0:55:24 > 0:55:25I'm back in square one...

0:55:25 > 0:55:27Who cares what square we're on...

0:55:27 > 0:55:30- I do actually ... - Well, maybe I don't...

0:55:32 > 0:55:35What is going on in that head of yours? What?

0:55:35 > 0:55:37What is so funny?

0:55:42 > 0:55:43It's not working, is it?

0:55:45 > 0:55:47Well then do something about it.

0:55:52 > 0:55:54You'd let me finish it, just like that...

0:55:54 > 0:55:57- Yeah, if that's what you wanted. - What's wrong with you?

0:55:57 > 0:56:01- You really want to know.- Yeah, go ahead, put me out of my misery.

0:56:01 > 0:56:03Fine.

0:56:03 > 0:56:04What?! What is this?

0:56:04 > 0:56:06- A CT scan.- Of what?- A brain, doctor.

0:56:06 > 0:56:12- What is this?- My brain. Or to be more specific, my brain tumour.

0:56:12 > 0:56:14So now, you know!

0:56:27 > 0:56:30PHONE BLEEPS

0:56:52 > 0:56:53Heading for home?

0:56:53 > 0:56:55Yeah.

0:56:55 > 0:56:58- Night, then.- Night.

0:57:29 > 0:57:32Perhaps this was all my fault, allowing you to get so involved.

0:57:32 > 0:57:34No, I was glad that you did.

0:57:34 > 0:57:36I should have seen the risks.

0:57:36 > 0:57:38You know, you can still rely on me.

0:57:38 > 0:57:42Tara, this is only going to get harder.

0:57:42 > 0:57:46- I know, but I... - There will be other Aishas.

0:57:46 > 0:57:51And one day, sooner or later, your secret will come out.

0:57:51 > 0:57:54Before it does,

0:57:54 > 0:57:58I think the least you should do is tell Oliver the truth.

0:57:58 > 0:58:03I know you're worried about how he's going to react,

0:58:03 > 0:58:05but I really think you're selling him short.

0:58:05 > 0:58:09- I don't want to be pitied. - You need his support.

0:58:09 > 0:58:13No, I need to be left alone to get on with my work.

0:58:13 > 0:58:16When will you realise this is just a job?

0:58:16 > 0:58:19Living your life is what really matters.
