0:00:38 > 0:00:39Is that my results?
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Yes, it's a fail.
0:00:41 > 0:00:42A fail?
0:00:42 > 0:00:45She reckons he asked her to go above and beyond.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48She didn't, and now she's worried that's why he failed her.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Do I look as rough as I feel?
0:00:50 > 0:00:52No, you look great, actually.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55You want to sleep with a married man, you go right ahead,
0:00:55 > 0:00:59but take my word for it, it'll all go pear-shaped in the end.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Chrissie, will you take Sacha to be your husband?
0:01:02 > 0:01:04I will.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09Oh, that's so exciting. Of course. Why wouldn't I be?
0:01:11 > 0:01:13No, I'd love to have them. Yeah, we'd love to have them.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Oh, my...God...
0:01:15 > 0:01:17SIRENS
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Oh, er... No. Nothing. Look, you get on.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27Yes, I'm thrilled, yes, for you.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30And it's cool...for us, I'm sure.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Yeah, it'll be a cool Yule.
0:01:34 > 0:01:35OK, bye.
0:01:37 > 0:01:38Oh, that's unusual.
0:01:38 > 0:01:39That's Albie.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45So, my lovely ex-wife has found herself a lovely new man.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47Another?
0:01:47 > 0:01:52Who wants to whisk her to a luxury hotel in Norway for Christmas. So...
0:01:52 > 0:01:54- The girls.- Coming to us!
0:01:54 > 0:01:56You don't mind?
0:01:56 > 0:01:57It doesn't really affect me.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00- Still, it's, you know... - Christmas dinner is down to you.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03I'll be here having mine at 10 o'clock at night on the ward.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05- Like most years. - So you're sure?
0:02:08 > 0:02:10OK, present from ED.
0:02:10 > 0:02:1259-year-old female found unconscious
0:02:12 > 0:02:16and bleeding in a suite in the Gibson Hotel in Loweswater Road.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18Nice digs. Right, straight into bay two, please.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22Internal bleeding, rectal pool of blood on the back of her nightgown.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26OK. I want full bloods, U's and E's and ten-minute obs...
0:02:27 > 0:02:29You OK?
0:02:34 > 0:02:36Can you imagine you and me...
0:02:36 > 0:02:39you know, me in baggy shorts and sandals,
0:02:39 > 0:02:42you in a sort of itsy-bitsy bikini, sipping tall drinks?
0:02:44 > 0:02:48"I just think we'll hove-to around Cap D'Antibes tonight, darling.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50"I do so love the escargots at the bistro."
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Hm.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56When we retire, eh? Kids are all flown. We sell up.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00Buy one of these, take to the seas.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03And I thought we were day-dreaming about this Christmas!
0:03:03 > 0:03:07A fortnight in St Tropez... not in 15 years' time!
0:03:15 > 0:03:22# Santa baby, just slip a sable until the tree for me... #
0:03:23 > 0:03:27Christmas songs are like sit-ups. Do them once a year,
0:03:27 > 0:03:30make you feel good for about five minutes,
0:03:30 > 0:03:33- then you forget them for the next 11 months...- It's Nurse Macoine.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- What's he want? - He says it's urgent and personal.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38Tell him to rub some cream on it and I'll see him
0:03:38 > 0:03:41when I'm back on the ward. Kind of got my hands full here.
0:03:50 > 0:03:54Let me be absolutely clear, so I know what you're saying...
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Nothing has happened?
0:03:58 > 0:04:00You're sure?
0:04:00 > 0:04:03I just want to get back to work. End of.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Of course. I appreciate that.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Back to work, on Keller?
0:04:09 > 0:04:10With Mr Griffin?
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Dr Birdwood...
0:04:14 > 0:04:17I do know how hard it can be working in a hospital hierarchy.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21There are pressures and personalities, obligations,
0:04:21 > 0:04:22misunderstandings.
0:04:24 > 0:04:28If you want me to help you, I need you to be entirely honest
0:04:28 > 0:04:31with me about anything that has happened.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33I just...don't want any trouble.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36You're not in any trouble.
0:04:36 > 0:04:40Should you feel uncomfortable or compromised in any way,
0:04:40 > 0:04:44please do not for one minute think that it's your fault.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47What's going on?
0:04:47 > 0:04:50- Smoke inhalation incident at a car plant.- What about ED?
0:04:50 > 0:04:53They're up against it, half their staff have called in sick.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55All right, listen.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57This is how it's going to work.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00I need you all to wait over there. You'll get seen as soon as we can.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Emergency enema, bay 3.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04Ah, this guy's been bounced up from the ED.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07Severe abdominal pains, possible bowel obstruction.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Let's find him a bed. I'll take a look at him when I get a chance.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12The quieter you are, the quicker you'll get seen!
0:05:12 > 0:05:13I hate this time of year.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16- Well, at least you've got something to look forward to.- What, an enema?
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Christmas. Read the rota.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20No, I just want to pretend it's like any other normal week
0:05:20 > 0:05:22then I won't be disappointed.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25- You really haven't looked?- Imelda Cousins, patron saint of nurses.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Yep, certainly looks after her own.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29- What?- Take a look at the e-mail.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34Oh, great!
0:05:34 > 0:05:36RINGING
0:05:38 > 0:05:42Oh, hi, er, that was me, erm... sorry.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45I don't know if you got my earlier calls. I...
0:05:47 > 0:05:50I left messages because...
0:05:51 > 0:05:53I've been told not to speak to you.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55What?
0:05:55 > 0:05:58I can't talk to you. One-on-one. Alone.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01By whom? Who told you not to speak to me?
0:06:01 > 0:06:03Sorry.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06Mr Griffin, my office, if you please.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17All sorted.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Mo! Mo!
0:06:20 > 0:06:25Miss Effanga, this is Albert Cheshire and his wife, Jan.
0:06:25 > 0:06:30Jan, Albie - Miss Effanga. Her notes. Her scans.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32Right.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34So, you're Mo?
0:06:34 > 0:06:37- Yeah.- Hello, I'm Jan.
0:06:37 > 0:06:38Albie's told me a lot about you.
0:06:49 > 0:06:53Oh, hello! Are you waking up?
0:06:53 > 0:06:55I'll just go and get you a doctor.
0:06:55 > 0:06:56..Geffin.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58What's that?
0:06:58 > 0:07:00INCOHERENT
0:07:00 > 0:07:03I'm sorry. I don't understand.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06I'll just go and get Mr Malick, he's your doctor. Try and tell him.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11She's waking up.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13OK. Let's have a look.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17She keeps saying something... McGeffen or something.
0:07:19 > 0:07:24Mrs Thorner. I'm Mr Malick, registrar here on this ward.
0:07:24 > 0:07:27You were in quite a state when you came in.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31Lost a lot of blood. But your vitals are stabilising.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33BP's falling. 80 over 55...
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Pulse back to 100.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Marek Geffen.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43We're going to run a few tests and find out why you're bleeding,
0:07:43 > 0:07:46and then we're going to keep trying to contact
0:07:46 > 0:07:49the hospital on your wristband, find out what's been going on, OK?
0:07:49 > 0:07:53Marek Geffen.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56Ric Griffin? Are you saying Ric Griffin?
0:07:56 > 0:08:00At this stage, any accusation is unsubstantiated and unofficial,
0:08:00 > 0:08:03but because of its personal and sensitive nature,
0:08:03 > 0:08:05I'd like to follow strict protocol.
0:08:05 > 0:08:06I'm sure you understand.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08- This is ridiculous.- Is it?
0:08:08 > 0:08:11Personal? What do you think, that I...
0:08:11 > 0:08:13I...sexually harassed her?
0:08:13 > 0:08:15Did you?
0:08:16 > 0:08:19So, um, Jan has a history of emphysema.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22She's been diagnosed with Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency
0:08:22 > 0:08:25and she is a refugee of the private health service.
0:08:25 > 0:08:29These are the best-presented notes I've ever seen.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32Beautifully bound with corner reinforcements.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35And of course, Jan is Albie's wife. Hey, Albie.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38- Hey, Jonny. - So now, you know about me, too.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41D'you know, I was just off the top of my head thinking,
0:08:41 > 0:08:45would Ms Naylor be a better fit for Jan's condition?
0:08:45 > 0:08:46On special occasions,
0:08:46 > 0:08:49you drink white rum with diet Coke, ice and a slice.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52You can't be trusted near a bowl of dry roasted.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54Although you don't eat pork scratchings,
0:08:54 > 0:08:56and not for religious reasons.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00And it seems you make Albie happy.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02So I'll page Ms Naylor, then. Yeah?
0:09:02 > 0:09:05She knows about us. That's what she's saying.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Yeah, I get that, thanks, Albie.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11So...this is uncomfortable. Right. Ms Naylor?
0:09:11 > 0:09:13A better fit?
0:09:13 > 0:09:15- I'd rather have you.- Why?
0:09:15 > 0:09:18You know lungs. Says so on the web.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21I Googled you - very impressive. On paper.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24- Jan.- Albie likes you, so why shouldn't I?
0:09:24 > 0:09:28- Because you might think that I'm... - We've been married for 22 years.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31We don't have secrets. And we don't have sex.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- This is officially... - She doesn't need to know that.
0:09:34 > 0:09:35I don't want her to feel awkward or weird.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38Awkward and weird hardly scratches the surface of what this is.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41After the private medical insurance max-ed out,
0:09:41 > 0:09:43we didn't know what to do.
0:09:43 > 0:09:44So you thought you'd come to me.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48Most patients with acute A1AT don't last past their 20s
0:09:48 > 0:09:49without a transplant.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Well, I am a lot older than that.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54So I'm a little bit beyond embarrassment.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Please, Mo?
0:10:01 > 0:10:02A word.
0:10:09 > 0:10:10This is not going to happen.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13At what point did you think it was a good idea bringing your wife
0:10:13 > 0:10:15to your girlfriend's place of work?
0:10:15 > 0:10:18The point where I thought she was dying
0:10:18 > 0:10:20and didn't know who else to turn to.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22Like she said. How embarrassed can we afford to get,
0:10:22 > 0:10:25if the choice is her suffocating to death?
0:10:26 > 0:10:29I'm...I'm sorry, love.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32I wouldn't have done this...
0:10:32 > 0:10:35I didn't know what the hell else to do.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40I'll look at her case notes. Nothing more.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48I regard this as defamation, extreme defamation.
0:10:48 > 0:10:52Let me make myself absolutely, totally and crystal clear.
0:10:52 > 0:10:56As yet, there has been no official complaint. Please sit down.
0:10:57 > 0:10:58Please.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03So, why are we...
0:11:03 > 0:11:07There's been some suggestion that a situation may have occurred
0:11:07 > 0:11:11during, shall we say, after-hours tutoring?
0:11:11 > 0:11:14Everyone in this hospital works after-hours at some stage.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17Even though the junior doctor involved had already been
0:11:17 > 0:11:20removed from your team, by myself, as I recall?
0:11:22 > 0:11:24What exactly did she say?
0:11:24 > 0:11:25Oh, come now, Mr Griffin.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27You don't for one second expect me
0:11:27 > 0:11:30to divulge the contents of a personal conversation!
0:11:31 > 0:11:35So, there's no official complaint.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38And yet, you seem to be suggesting there's no smoke without fire?
0:11:38 > 0:11:39Your words. Not mine.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44Of course, there's no way you would even pretend
0:11:44 > 0:11:46- to consider actually taking this case.- Nah.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49- I mean, there's no need to say why.- Nah.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54You're sleeping with the patient's husband.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56I thought you didn't need to say it!
0:11:56 > 0:11:59Look, I'm just looking through what's here, OK?
0:11:59 > 0:12:02So there's no need to be all... Just looking through the notes.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Nothing else.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13There you are! Do you know a lady...
0:12:13 > 0:12:16- Not now, Chantelle, please. - ..called Mary Thorner. Sorry.
0:12:16 > 0:12:17- Are you busy?- Mary Thorner?
0:12:17 > 0:12:20She says she was in chemotherapy with you when you were ill.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23- She's here. She's been asking about you.- Mary's here, now?
0:12:23 > 0:12:28She was admitted earlier. Found unconscious in a hotel suite.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31She was very poorly when she came in, but her obs are stable now.
0:12:31 > 0:12:32IV fluids helped.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Mary...?
0:12:36 > 0:12:40Ric Griffin. Even for a doctor, that is pathetic.
0:12:40 > 0:12:46- What?- The look on your face. Horror mixed with...unbridled pity.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48I know I look terrible.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51No, you don't! D'you want me to get you a mirror?
0:12:51 > 0:12:54- Only if you want me to smash it. - You were doing so well.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58You, though...now, you look amazing, like Denzel Washington.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00Get even more gorgeous with age.
0:13:02 > 0:13:03Mary...
0:13:03 > 0:13:07Don't...please.
0:13:07 > 0:13:08I'm fine.
0:13:09 > 0:13:10Really.
0:13:13 > 0:13:17The all-clear turned out not to be all clear.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20So, I moved up to Edinburgh to be nearer to my daughter.
0:13:20 > 0:13:26Sophie. And...erm twins, your grandchildren. Madison and...
0:13:26 > 0:13:29- Madison and Freya...- Freya.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31You were always such a good listener.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33So sexy in a man.
0:13:34 > 0:13:38Eventually, the hospital up there told me it was inoperable.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41They offered me a place in a hospice, nice facility, but...
0:13:41 > 0:13:43You missed Holby.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46I couldn't give a toss about Holby.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48No, it was the children, Ric.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50I didn't want them watching their gran
0:13:50 > 0:13:52turn into a sad, old, sick woman.
0:13:54 > 0:13:59Even though I have apparently been lucky enough to keep all my hair.
0:14:00 > 0:14:01Lucky!
0:14:01 > 0:14:04We need to run some more tests.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06No point.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08Let's get the notes up from the Edinburgh hospital.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Why were you in a hotel?
0:14:10 > 0:14:12The hospice didn't have a mini bar.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15HE GROANS
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Some swelling... distended abdomen...very tender...
0:14:17 > 0:14:20clearly causing quiet a bit of pain...
0:14:20 > 0:14:22OK, full bloods, U's and E's, LFT's,
0:14:22 > 0:14:24Amylase, group and save and clotting.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28Let's give him 5mg of morphine and saline IV
0:14:28 > 0:14:30and run an abdo X-ray.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34- So, what d'you reckon? - Well, it could be appendicitis...
0:14:34 > 0:14:36but let's wait and see what the pictures tell us.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39I've been having these niggling pains for some time...and...
0:14:39 > 0:14:41a lady friend of mine suggested I try an alternative remedy...
0:14:41 > 0:14:44- Colonic irrigation...- OK...
0:14:44 > 0:14:45Could that have done any harm?
0:14:45 > 0:14:48Like I said, let's wait for the X-ray.
0:14:48 > 0:14:49I saw you staggering from your car.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52- You looked like you were in a lot of pain.- One minute,
0:14:52 > 0:14:54I'm driving down the motorway, right as rain...
0:14:54 > 0:14:56next thing I know it's like... I'm in that Alien movie,
0:14:56 > 0:14:59something scary's about to burst out of my stomach.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04If I screw my eyes up tight...
0:15:04 > 0:15:07you could easily pass for a blonde Sigourney Weaver.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09Only of course, you're much more beautiful...
0:15:09 > 0:15:11What did you have for breakfast - magic mushrooms?
0:15:11 > 0:15:13HE LAUGHS
0:15:13 > 0:15:16So what are you doing for Christmas...?
0:15:16 > 0:15:18Er, not sure yet.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22If I was your man... I'd whisking you away to Antigua...
0:15:22 > 0:15:23it's my favourite Caribbean island...
0:15:23 > 0:15:26Er, all right...I need a heads-up. I got the boss-lady on the phone.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Apparently someone's boat is messing up her car park?
0:15:29 > 0:15:33You might want to get on it. Security is going to move it ASAP.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35Right. You might want to give me those keys.
0:15:35 > 0:15:36HE GROANS
0:15:36 > 0:15:38Are they in here?
0:15:38 > 0:15:41So, where were we...? Oh, yeah, Antigua.
0:15:52 > 0:15:57So, this is where you tell me that, having looked at her files,
0:15:57 > 0:15:59you're now transferring her to another doctor...
0:15:59 > 0:16:02Not only because you know they can do a bang-up job,
0:16:02 > 0:16:05but also because we all know that you're a soft touch
0:16:05 > 0:16:10for a worthy cause, and of course you would never want to do anything
0:16:10 > 0:16:14highly unethical. Anything that might jeopardise your entire career.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17What would you say is the life expectancy of an emphysema patient
0:16:17 > 0:16:20with a FEV1 reading of 30%?
0:16:20 > 0:16:23A month. Maybe two at the outside. What happened to...
0:16:25 > 0:16:2720%?!
0:16:27 > 0:16:31I've seen geraniums that could absorb more oxygen than her lungs.
0:16:34 > 0:16:38Mo, she's dying and that's horrible. But it's not unusual. Not here...
0:16:38 > 0:16:42What is unusual is that you'd be willing to throw your job away
0:16:42 > 0:16:45by pretending it's OK for you to consult on a patient
0:16:45 > 0:16:47with whom you have a warped relationship!
0:16:47 > 0:16:50Get over yourself! I'm running some tests for a friend...
0:16:50 > 0:16:54- It sounds like you're charging mates' rates.- No, trying to make a realistic prognosis.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56You studied the note-file from the private hospital?
0:16:56 > 0:17:00Help if they'd learned to use the fancy diagnostic equipment they've got.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02Most of these readings are bogus.
0:17:02 > 0:17:06Mo. I mean it, don't do this.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11- A sigmoidoscopy?- Yeah, it's where we use a camera to...
0:17:11 > 0:17:13I know exactly what one is!
0:17:13 > 0:17:15You don't think I've come this far without having one?
0:17:15 > 0:17:17It'll help me find the cause of the bleed.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19I'll tell you the cause.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22I have a tumour the size of a puppy wedged in the middle of my giblets.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24That much I do know!
0:17:24 > 0:17:26If I can find the cause of the bleed,
0:17:26 > 0:17:30then I might be able to do something about it.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33I checked out of hospital. Dodged hospice.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37Hid away in a hotel suite, in order to avoid anything medical.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40You think I'm going to let you stick a scope up my sheriff's badge.
0:17:40 > 0:17:44Jog on, Ric. What...what?
0:17:44 > 0:17:45What's funny?
0:17:45 > 0:17:47I'd forgotten...
0:17:47 > 0:17:50just how funny you are.
0:17:50 > 0:17:54And I'd forgot what a stiff you are! Ric...
0:17:57 > 0:18:02Whack me full of heavy-duty morphine and stick me in a side ward.
0:18:03 > 0:18:04Please.
0:18:04 > 0:18:10Nope. Not until I've conducted a thorough examination of your bowel.
0:18:10 > 0:18:11God...
0:18:12 > 0:18:15..you always were a silver-tongued bastard!
0:18:17 > 0:18:20Right... I just need to take an arterial blood sample.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23I'll go and wait elsewhere...
0:18:23 > 0:18:25- There's no need...- Yes, there is. - Yes, there is.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31He doesn't like needles.
0:18:32 > 0:18:36There's a lot you don't know about him, isn't there?
0:18:36 > 0:18:40I'm going to insert the needle into your artery...in your wrist,
0:18:40 > 0:18:44draw some blood and test it to see how much oxygen is in it.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47I'm sorry...it's going to hurt.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49I doubt it.
0:18:49 > 0:18:50It's OK. I'm fine.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59- We never had children.- Oh?
0:18:59 > 0:19:03No, Albie would have loved them. He wanted three boys!
0:19:03 > 0:19:06He's from a large family, you see.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09- He'd have been a fantastic father. - I'm sure...
0:19:09 > 0:19:11But I chose to get sterilised.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14- Because of... - Because I'm a gene carrier.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17It killed something in our marriage. Not the love...
0:19:17 > 0:19:19just...the joy.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Bingo! Sorry.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23Don't be.
0:19:23 > 0:19:28So, he helped me run my business. I helped him run his.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31We raised businesses, not children.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36He's a very good man.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39- I know.- Too good to be left on his own.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46I'm just going to have to hold it here for a few minutes... till it clots.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51I really shouldn't be doing this.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Then walk away. I'll understand.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06Hiya... I thought you'd be on Mr Griffin's team today.
0:20:06 > 0:20:10- Interesting case, apparently. - No. Not today.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13Is there still something wrong between you and Mr Griffin?
0:20:13 > 0:20:17- Nothing.- Because, if there is, you should just talk to him.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21Honestly, he's ever so understanding and kind. Really.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25Am I what you expected?
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Come on. Bet you had me down as a right chubby little munter.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33- No...- Or a skeletal career woman with too much make-up.
0:20:36 > 0:20:41All right... I thought... super-skinny...
0:20:41 > 0:20:45Well...hoped. Brittle. Stuck up. No fun.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Oh...sorry... I didn't mean that.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54You must really hate me.
0:20:55 > 0:20:57If this was the other way round...
0:20:57 > 0:21:00and you knew you wouldn't see another Easter egg again...
0:21:00 > 0:21:02what would you want?
0:21:03 > 0:21:05Honestly, I don't know.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07You'd want the man you love more than anything
0:21:07 > 0:21:10in the whole wide world to be OK. To find someone.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13- But he's YOUR husband. - He's my best friend.
0:21:13 > 0:21:17And I know that when I'm gone, and he meets someone, then...
0:21:18 > 0:21:20..his heart will always be mine.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27You do know that I had no idea you were ill, right?
0:21:27 > 0:21:30I wouldn't have gone anywhere near him if I'd known.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32And I wouldn't have let you, if I wasn't.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39How do you think I'll do?
0:21:43 > 0:21:46Bed 5. Michael said could you take a look at his x-ray.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48Bed 5, the x-ray.
0:21:57 > 0:21:58You lost your key?
0:21:59 > 0:22:03Um...no. Ah, you mean my car key? Yeah,
0:22:03 > 0:22:06er, the boss lady sent down for it. To move my boat
0:22:06 > 0:22:10Oh, of course. You're him! Ah, what a lovely boat!
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Not that I know anything about boats.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15Nearest I've come is the cross-channel ferry.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18- Nice buffet, though. - Erm, my key...?
0:22:18 > 0:22:22Ah, yes, sorry. Your key. I found it.
0:22:22 > 0:22:24- Where?- In your colon.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27It would explain the pain and the temperature.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30Looks like it's about to burst into your small intestine.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33Yeah! I did swallow a key once.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36- 20 years ago.- 20 years ago?!
0:22:36 > 0:22:39Yeah, the Munich beer festival. For a bet
0:22:39 > 0:22:43with the bosun of the German transatlantic team.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45- I mean, I was young then... - So, it never cropped up since?
0:22:45 > 0:22:48Well, I just assumed it had sailed on through.
0:22:48 > 0:22:52No such luck. There'll be no Christmas pudding for you this year.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54That's not a problem. Can't stand the stuff. All that stodge.
0:22:54 > 0:22:59Ooh, I love stodge! Christmas time. I say, bring on the stodge!
0:22:59 > 0:23:02Bread sauce. Stuffing. Christmas pudding, cake.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04Lashings of brandy butter and the Queen's speech.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Now that, my friend, is Christmas...
0:23:06 > 0:23:07PAGER BEEPS
0:23:07 > 0:23:08Oh, better go.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13Brandy butter?
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Bread sauce? Urgh!
0:23:15 > 0:23:17I know! Whoever thought about making a sauce out of bread?
0:23:17 > 0:23:21Well, that doctor just described my idea of Christmas hell.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29This a private party? Because I didn't seem to get an invite.
0:23:29 > 0:23:32Miss Effanga... Professor Hope said he'd be happy to stand in when I explained
0:23:32 > 0:23:36about your clash. Your other commitment?
0:23:37 > 0:23:39These places
0:23:39 > 0:23:42where the emphysema is compressing the healthy lung
0:23:42 > 0:23:44so it can't absorb oxygen...
0:23:44 > 0:23:46It's not good news, I'm afraid.
0:23:46 > 0:23:50A healthy set of lungs has five lobes that absorb oxygen...
0:23:50 > 0:23:54- Jan's operating on two. - What are her chances?
0:23:54 > 0:23:56- Without a transplant?- Poor.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58And the prospect of a suitable pair of lungs in time?
0:23:58 > 0:24:00She's not on the transplant list.
0:24:00 > 0:24:04We'd have to take her through the MDT processes and assessments. It takes time.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09- There anything you can do? - Lung volume reduction.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12Might buy her some time.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14- You can do that? - Mo can't, but...
0:24:14 > 0:24:16I hear you have a clash?
0:24:16 > 0:24:18No. Not any more. Just rescheduled.
0:24:18 > 0:24:23Right, good. I'm sorry it's a gamble, Albie.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27But this is a good team. She couldn't be in better hands.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38So, your union rep says moving boats isn't in your job description?
0:24:38 > 0:24:40Sorry, not my problem.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44Fine.
0:24:48 > 0:24:49I feel like royalty.
0:24:49 > 0:24:54I bet not many patients get to see the inside of Mr Griffin's office.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57- Only the very special ones. - We having a party?
0:24:57 > 0:25:00If discussing the treatment now I've got your results counts as one...
0:25:00 > 0:25:03Wow, you really know how to let your hair down.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06Mr Griffin. Excuse me. Can I have a quick minute?
0:25:06 > 0:25:07No.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10I'm sorry. I just want to explain.
0:25:10 > 0:25:11No.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15Hello. Something going on here.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Nothing to see here, Mary.
0:25:22 > 0:25:27Now, I'd like to introduce you to my number one surgical team
0:25:27 > 0:25:29and explain a procedure to you.
0:25:29 > 0:25:33It's a fairly radical operation, called the Hartmann's procedure.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37So, you want to cut up chunks of my lungs?
0:25:37 > 0:25:38About 30%.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41- You don't have to agree to this. - What's going to happen?
0:25:41 > 0:25:44I'll be cutting out bits of dead lung. The bits that don't work.
0:25:44 > 0:25:48And that'll give the good bits more of a chance to function.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50Like weeding a veg patch?
0:25:52 > 0:25:56Oh, you're sweet. You make it sound nice.
0:25:57 > 0:26:02But I think her version of events - chopping up chunks of lung -
0:26:02 > 0:26:04is probably more accurate.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07- What's the risks?- Honestly?
0:26:07 > 0:26:10Chest infection, air leaks, respiratory failure
0:26:10 > 0:26:13and, of course, there may be no reduction to your symptoms.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15So, it might not be any use at all?
0:26:15 > 0:26:18There's no guarantee that we'll be buying any time.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21Lung volume reduction surgery is only suitable
0:26:21 > 0:26:24for a minority of emphysema patients.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26About 20% or less.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28So, you don't think I should do this?
0:26:28 > 0:26:30It's not that I...
0:26:33 > 0:26:35That's not a problem. Quite the opposite.
0:26:35 > 0:26:39She owes me. So, today, now,
0:26:39 > 0:26:42in this hospital, who could do it better? Anyone?
0:26:45 > 0:26:48- No.- Good.
0:26:48 > 0:26:51So, basically, you remove all my entrails.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54Gut me like a fish.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56Turn me into a pyjama case?
0:26:56 > 0:27:00We'll attach the end of your colon to the wall of your abdomen
0:27:00 > 0:27:02and create a stoma.
0:27:02 > 0:27:03You'll have a bag.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07And you expect me to agree to this?
0:27:07 > 0:27:11Mrs Thorner, the Hartmann procedure is very radical.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14But please don't worry, you're in good hands.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16If the boss-man here did private medicine,
0:27:16 > 0:27:19people'd fly from all over the world to go under this knife. Trust me.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21You got a loyal crew around you, Griffin?
0:27:21 > 0:27:23I'd like to think so.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27You seriously think that hollowing me out
0:27:27 > 0:27:29and fitting me with a...
0:27:29 > 0:27:32a business bag is going to make any difference?
0:27:32 > 0:27:37I think - if it works - it could give you several more years of life.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41Life where you'll be able to function perfectly normally,
0:27:41 > 0:27:44wear whatever clothes you like,
0:27:44 > 0:27:48and be as active and as cool a granny
0:27:48 > 0:27:51as Madison and Freya could ever wish for.
0:27:54 > 0:27:55God!
0:27:57 > 0:28:00I hate you, Ric Griffin!
0:28:00 > 0:28:03- Is that a yes?- Yes, yes, yes.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08Chrissie's going to love it.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11See, I just believe in doing it to the max, you know?
0:28:11 > 0:28:14Christmas saturation. Total immersion.
0:28:15 > 0:28:18Mum makes this Christmas chocolate cake, you know,
0:28:18 > 0:28:20it's so rich it could suck the teeth right out...
0:28:20 > 0:28:24Ah, Mr Hemmingway... so this is where you hide?
0:28:24 > 0:28:28- Research, yes.- It seems I have a bone to pick with you.
0:28:29 > 0:28:33What's going on? Dr Birdwood.
0:28:33 > 0:28:36Look, there's...
0:28:37 > 0:28:40There was a misunderstanding.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42What misunderstanding?
0:28:43 > 0:28:46There was...a situation,
0:28:46 > 0:28:50which, I don't know - through a series of Chinese whispers -
0:28:50 > 0:28:54wrong end of the stick just got blown up into something more.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57Oh, good. Well, that's all sorted, then.
0:28:57 > 0:29:01- It's...- Complicated? I get that.
0:29:01 > 0:29:04What happened? What's going on?
0:29:04 > 0:29:08- Nothing.- Don't say nothing! Come on, Ric!
0:29:23 > 0:29:29Dr Birdwood has lodged an... informal complaint against me.
0:29:30 > 0:29:33For what?
0:29:33 > 0:29:35Inappropriate behaviour...
0:29:35 > 0:29:39What?! How? What happened?
0:29:39 > 0:29:42- Nothing.- Nothing?
0:29:42 > 0:29:46Absolutely nothing. Really.
0:29:46 > 0:29:50It's just been blown up out of all proportion.
0:29:52 > 0:29:53Serious?
0:29:56 > 0:29:59OK. Cool. Well, that's good enough for me.
0:30:03 > 0:30:05Come on, Albie, my darling.
0:30:05 > 0:30:07I need you to man up.
0:30:09 > 0:30:11I need you to be strong for me.
0:30:14 > 0:30:16I can see your feet.
0:30:19 > 0:30:21Sorry to interrupt...
0:30:21 > 0:30:25I'm just dotting I's, crossing T's. You OK?
0:30:25 > 0:30:28I'm fine. Can I ask you something?
0:30:28 > 0:30:30Yeah, of course - anything.
0:30:30 > 0:30:33Albie. I need you to go for a minute.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35I need to talk to Mo on my own.
0:30:49 > 0:30:51- What if it goes wrong?- Like...?
0:30:51 > 0:30:53Like I end up a vegetable.
0:30:53 > 0:30:56If you have any specific instructions in relation to your care,
0:30:56 > 0:30:59- in the event...- Yeah, I do, I do. - Well, then, we need to discuss it,
0:30:59 > 0:31:02- and you need to discuss it with Albie.- No.
0:31:02 > 0:31:05He's a lovely man. But he's going to buckle
0:31:05 > 0:31:08and if I need someone to pull the plug,
0:31:08 > 0:31:10- I can't rely on Albie. - He's your husband.
0:31:10 > 0:31:12Which is why he won't do it.
0:31:12 > 0:31:15Our marriage might not be at its best,
0:31:15 > 0:31:17but he loves me too much to let me go.
0:31:17 > 0:31:20I need you to be in charge.
0:31:23 > 0:31:24Where are you going?
0:31:24 > 0:31:26I'm trying to get myself to the loo, if you must know.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28- Well, you'd be better off waiting in bed.- No.
0:31:28 > 0:31:31- I'll get you a nurse...- No! - ..and a bed pan.- I said no!
0:31:31 > 0:31:35OK. You're a feisty one, aren't you?
0:31:35 > 0:31:38I'm about to have my bowel removed and a bag fitted -
0:31:38 > 0:31:40this could possibly be the last occasion
0:31:40 > 0:31:44I ever get to sit on a toilet and go out of the appropriate holes!
0:31:44 > 0:31:48I am not using a bed pan.
0:31:50 > 0:31:54OK. I hear you.
0:31:54 > 0:31:57Thank you...very much.
0:32:15 > 0:32:18I told you. Didn't I?
0:32:21 > 0:32:24I told you this whole Albie thing was going to end in a train wreck.
0:32:26 > 0:32:29I just thought you'd get all bent out of shape
0:32:29 > 0:32:33and comfort-eat on doughnuts for a month.
0:32:34 > 0:32:37Not flush your career down the toilet.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40I can't help it. It's a long shot as it is.
0:32:40 > 0:32:43Don't do this just because you feel obliged to Albie.
0:32:43 > 0:32:47I'm not! It's not about him! I'm doing this for my patient.
0:32:50 > 0:32:54I just...paced outside. OK?
0:32:54 > 0:32:55Paced.
0:32:55 > 0:33:00And I came to the conclusion I can't have anything to do with this.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05OK. I understand. No hard feelings.
0:33:05 > 0:33:10But now that I see what a total basket case you are...
0:33:13 > 0:33:15So, you with me, or...?
0:33:15 > 0:33:18Am I with you? What are we? The A-Team now?
0:33:18 > 0:33:19Yeah.
0:33:20 > 0:33:23Ms Effanga is performing a VATs procedure,
0:33:23 > 0:33:26so we need the scope from theatre 2.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29Right? Because we all know that's the good one!
0:33:29 > 0:33:32The patient has arrived, so bleep the gas-monkey. Now!
0:33:35 > 0:33:37My advanced directive...
0:33:37 > 0:33:39"If I am not able to breathe on my own,
0:33:39 > 0:33:43- "it is my wish to be allowed to die with dignity."- Yeah.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51How long have you worked with Ric?
0:33:51 > 0:33:54Not long. Few weeks. To be honest,
0:33:54 > 0:33:57I didn't know till just now he even HAD cancer.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59Oh, yeah, been there, done that, worn the T-shirt.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02I tell you, if it's a fight between cancer and Ric,
0:34:02 > 0:34:04cancer better watch out.
0:34:06 > 0:34:07You must know him pretty well.
0:34:07 > 0:34:10Spent hour upon hour with someone in chemo,
0:34:10 > 0:34:13being pumped full of evil chemicals,
0:34:13 > 0:34:16you tend to scratch beneath the surface.
0:34:16 > 0:34:19Sure.
0:34:19 > 0:34:20A prince among men.
0:34:20 > 0:34:25I'd heard about him before I arrived. I really admired his work.
0:34:26 > 0:34:30Mary...? Mrs Thorner? You OK?
0:34:35 > 0:34:38Oh, sweet... No, no, no, no...
0:34:38 > 0:34:40Can we get some help in here!
0:34:45 > 0:34:47Lilah!
0:34:50 > 0:34:53- Mary!- Mary?! - Mary, can you hear us? Mary?
0:34:53 > 0:34:55Mary, it's Chantelle, can you hear me?
0:34:56 > 0:34:59All right. Straight to Theatre.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11- No, not you.- But I want to...
0:35:13 > 0:35:15There it is.
0:35:16 > 0:35:19Pulmonary stapler, please. How's she doing?
0:35:19 > 0:35:21Stats are good.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24Well done, we may just be buying her some more time.
0:35:32 > 0:35:33Got it.
0:35:33 > 0:35:37It's quite simple. We don't look after the nursing staff,
0:35:37 > 0:35:40patient welfare will suffer. Oh, Dr Birdwood?
0:35:41 > 0:35:44He kissed me.
0:35:44 > 0:35:45I'll catch you up.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48He...kissed...me.
0:35:48 > 0:35:52I want to make it clear. That's what all this is about.
0:35:52 > 0:35:53Shall we take this elsewhere?
0:35:53 > 0:35:57I didn't want to say anything before, I didn't want to get anybody in trouble.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59- I think this would be best discussed in private.- He kissed me!
0:35:59 > 0:36:01- I see.- When we were in the wet lab...
0:36:01 > 0:36:04- You don't need to go into detail here.- I didn't want it to happen.
0:36:04 > 0:36:07I didn't want any of this to happen.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14- Any of the bowel we can save? - Enough to fashion a colostomy.
0:36:14 > 0:36:16Tumour is up into the colon,
0:36:16 > 0:36:21bladder, uterus is wrecked...
0:36:21 > 0:36:24She needs an en-bloc resection.
0:36:24 > 0:36:26I think you're right.
0:36:33 > 0:36:36ALARM
0:36:39 > 0:36:42Right, Jonny, IV diazepam. Quick as you can.
0:36:42 > 0:36:45OK. All right, Jan.
0:36:45 > 0:36:47Albie, we need you out of here now, please.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51I need you to understand, Dr Birdwood,
0:36:51 > 0:36:53that, as your manager, I have a legal duty -
0:36:53 > 0:36:55a professional expectation -
0:36:55 > 0:36:59to protect you against bullying and harassment in the workplace.
0:36:59 > 0:37:03And it is for that reason and that reason alone,
0:37:03 > 0:37:06that I'm going to have to ask you to go home.
0:37:06 > 0:37:09- What, to Australia?- No, no, no. Of course not, my dear!
0:37:09 > 0:37:13No, no, not "home" home. I mean to your digs, your quarters.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17You don't need to worry about him any more.
0:37:19 > 0:37:22What will this mean for him?
0:37:22 > 0:37:24This is now a formal complaint of sexual harassment
0:37:24 > 0:37:26and professional misconduct,
0:37:26 > 0:37:30as I believe, from what you have told me...Lilah...
0:37:30 > 0:37:32Shall I call you Lilah?
0:37:32 > 0:37:35..that there is sufficient substance in your allegation
0:37:35 > 0:37:37to commence an investigation,
0:37:37 > 0:37:40in accordance with Trust disciplinary policy.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45I'm sorry, my dear, that sounded like SUCH a mouthful,
0:37:45 > 0:37:50but at a time like this, protocol needs to be followed to the letter.
0:37:50 > 0:37:54ALARM
0:38:13 > 0:38:16FLATLINE
0:38:16 > 0:38:18She's arrested, she's gone into VF.
0:38:19 > 0:38:21Paddles.
0:38:22 > 0:38:23Charging 360.
0:38:26 > 0:38:29Clear!
0:38:29 > 0:38:31Going again.
0:38:31 > 0:38:33Clear.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38Charging again.
0:38:38 > 0:38:40And we're off.
0:38:40 > 0:38:42Right, so I finally can get to tell you
0:38:42 > 0:38:44that I am off all over Christmas.
0:38:44 > 0:38:46I've got to work New Year's Eve,
0:38:46 > 0:38:49but I am off Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day,
0:38:49 > 0:38:51- and two days either side! - Oh, wow, that's fantastic!
0:38:51 > 0:38:55I was thinking we should do something different. Something exciting.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57Ah! Like a four-bird roast!
0:38:57 > 0:39:03A duck inside a chicken inside a turkey inside a... No, wait.
0:39:03 > 0:39:05Hang on, must start with something smaller.
0:39:05 > 0:39:07Anyway. I love it! Anyway, it's great.
0:39:07 > 0:39:11No, that's not what I was thinking. I thought we could try and...
0:39:11 > 0:39:14Ooh, a karaoke machine! Ah, if we're all together,
0:39:14 > 0:39:17it'll be brilliant! You want to hear the girls do Sister Sledge...
0:39:17 > 0:39:20# We are family... #
0:39:20 > 0:39:22No. I thought maybe we could go away...
0:39:22 > 0:39:25- Oh, my good God!- Oh!
0:39:25 > 0:39:27No wonder he's in so much pain!
0:39:27 > 0:39:29Key's twisted and perforated his bowel.
0:39:29 > 0:39:34Right. Saline flush, please, and two Robinson drains.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36Probably lucky it happened here.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38If it had happened in the big ocean,
0:39:38 > 0:39:41could've really scuppered his chances.
0:39:43 > 0:39:46Right, 4-0 vicryl, please.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50No pupil response to intense incident light.
0:39:52 > 0:39:57The final test is the gag reflex. She should respond automatically.
0:39:57 > 0:39:59Gag reflex - negative.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06Jan has suffered a pneumothorax,
0:40:06 > 0:40:10which has caused respiratory arrest and hypoxic brain damage.
0:40:10 > 0:40:13Her brain's damaged due to a lack of oxygen.
0:40:13 > 0:40:18OK...OK, she's, erm, she's in a coma.
0:40:18 > 0:40:21- So, what do we do now? - It's not a coma, Albie.
0:40:21 > 0:40:24We've taken her off the ventilator
0:40:24 > 0:40:27and she's unable to breathe for herself.
0:40:27 > 0:40:30We'll put her back on the ventilator, temporarily, until...
0:40:30 > 0:40:32Until you work out what to do?
0:40:37 > 0:40:39You know Jan left very clear instructions
0:40:39 > 0:40:42- in the event of something like this...- I don't care.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46I'm her husband.
0:40:47 > 0:40:49I love her.
0:40:49 > 0:40:52I've lived with her illness. I can live with this too.
0:40:52 > 0:40:54You're not switching her off!
0:40:56 > 0:40:58You said she had a chance.
0:40:58 > 0:41:01We all agreed. Jan did too.
0:41:02 > 0:41:05Lung volume reduction was worth a try.
0:41:05 > 0:41:08If we hadn't, she'd still be here, fighting for every last breath
0:41:08 > 0:41:09before her lungs turned solid.
0:41:09 > 0:41:12She didn't want to end up like this.
0:41:12 > 0:41:15- If she'd known she was going to end up...- She knew the risks...
0:41:16 > 0:41:19..that's why she wrote this.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22Her wishes.
0:41:23 > 0:41:26D'you want us to read them out together?
0:41:26 > 0:41:29She doesn't want her life unnecessarily prolonged
0:41:29 > 0:41:30That's what it says.
0:41:30 > 0:41:34- "If I'm no longer able to breathe..." - I know. I can read.- Albie...
0:41:34 > 0:41:38You...you shouldn't have been treating her.
0:41:38 > 0:41:42- How do I know that you... - Albie, Mo did everything she could.
0:41:42 > 0:41:44I could have you struck off.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46And I'm telling you now, absolutely and categorically,
0:41:46 > 0:41:49Professor Hope couldn't have done more for Jan.
0:41:50 > 0:41:56And now Mo is trying to do exactly what Jan wants.
0:41:56 > 0:41:57It's not what I want.
0:41:57 > 0:42:00All the more reason Jan should trust Mo.
0:42:00 > 0:42:03Because she knew, as a professional,
0:42:03 > 0:42:05she would carry out her wishes to the letter.
0:42:07 > 0:42:09It doesn't matter what you think of me.
0:42:09 > 0:42:12All that matters is that we do exactly what we promised Jan we'd do.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16She wanted dignity.
0:42:16 > 0:42:20She loved you so much and knew you so well.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23She knew you'd never let her go.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30So, she made sure I would.
0:42:42 > 0:42:43I got it.
0:42:45 > 0:42:49Mr Griffin, just wondering if you could give me an idea
0:42:49 > 0:42:50of when you might be finishing up?
0:42:52 > 0:42:56At this stage, impossible.
0:42:56 > 0:42:58Or a moment...if you're having a break, say,
0:42:58 > 0:43:01when we could talk?
0:43:01 > 0:43:02Ah, why don't you put the kettle on?
0:43:02 > 0:43:06I'm sure we'd all like to nip out for a cup of tea and a biscuit!
0:43:08 > 0:43:12I'll come and find you when I'm done.
0:43:12 > 0:43:15It IS a matter of urgency.
0:43:19 > 0:43:20We ready?
0:43:22 > 0:43:23En-bloc?
0:43:25 > 0:43:27Together.
0:43:27 > 0:43:28Lift.
0:43:29 > 0:43:30Dish.
0:43:41 > 0:43:43Mr Griffin, that is...
0:43:44 > 0:43:48- ..great work.- Thank you.
0:43:48 > 0:43:50Not easy.
0:43:55 > 0:43:57When do I switch her off?
0:43:58 > 0:44:02Up to 12 hours after the brain stem test.
0:44:04 > 0:44:06Do I wait until the last minute?
0:44:07 > 0:44:08It's up to you.
0:44:11 > 0:44:12Does it make it any easier...
0:44:16 > 0:44:19..if I hold her hand for the next ten hours?
0:44:22 > 0:44:24Will I feel better then?
0:44:25 > 0:44:28There's, erm, a reason
0:44:28 > 0:44:32Jan stipulated 12 hours in her advanced directive.
0:44:34 > 0:44:36In case she woke up?
0:44:36 > 0:44:38Half a day to pull off a miracle?
0:44:39 > 0:44:41No.
0:44:41 > 0:44:43Preparation time...
0:44:44 > 0:44:46- ..for organ donation.- What?!
0:44:46 > 0:44:49We technically shouldn't even be speaking to you about this
0:44:49 > 0:44:52because we're your friends,
0:44:52 > 0:44:55but our colleague here can answer all your questions.
0:44:55 > 0:44:59- You can discuss anything with her, anything that concerns...- No. You.
0:45:01 > 0:45:03Please. You.
0:45:12 > 0:45:16Jan signed her donor card, but the final decision's yours.
0:45:28 > 0:45:30- You OK?- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
0:45:30 > 0:45:33Just a lot of very tight stitching.
0:45:33 > 0:45:37We got ten minutes till the bloods arrive. All going well, though.
0:45:38 > 0:45:41- This is bang out of order. - Have we done yet?
0:45:41 > 0:45:45What's the problem? This about Lilah Birdwood? This because we both failed her?
0:45:45 > 0:45:47Look, she failed.
0:45:47 > 0:45:50I failed her. He failed her, because she's not up to scratch.
0:45:50 > 0:45:54- Standard.- It's not about the assessment. Or you, Mr Malick.
0:45:54 > 0:45:58What is it? We've already had a complaint from a patient about her.
0:45:58 > 0:46:00She doesn't turn up for her shifts. She's a flake.
0:46:00 > 0:46:02Malick, I can deal with this.
0:46:02 > 0:46:05Once this operation is finished, I need to talk to you in your office.
0:46:05 > 0:46:08Oh, come on! We all know who the valuable one is here.
0:46:08 > 0:46:11Mr Griffin's just done the most complex Hartmann's procedure...
0:46:11 > 0:46:13so who's worth more to this hospital. Him?
0:46:13 > 0:46:16Or some jumped-up CT1 with a case of the "poor me"s?
0:46:16 > 0:46:18- I'm not sure I like your attitude! - Tell her what you told me.
0:46:18 > 0:46:21Nothing happened, all right? Isn't that right, Mr Griffin?
0:46:26 > 0:46:27A word of advice.
0:46:27 > 0:46:30If you're going to robustly defend someone,
0:46:30 > 0:46:32make sure you get all the facts first.
0:46:36 > 0:46:38You said nothing happened.
0:46:43 > 0:46:45Yours, I believe?
0:46:46 > 0:46:50A man called Heinrich Spitz swore I'd never swallow it.
0:46:50 > 0:46:53Ah! And who said youth was wasted on the young?
0:46:54 > 0:46:58Look, this is going to sound really, really cheesy,
0:46:58 > 0:47:00but if I don't ask, I'll be kicking myself.
0:47:00 > 0:47:02Go on, what?
0:47:02 > 0:47:06I always need new crew, especially crossing big water.
0:47:06 > 0:47:11More hands the better. If you wanted to join me, it'd be a six-day trip.
0:47:13 > 0:47:16Yeah, sorry. Like I said, if I don't ask...
0:47:16 > 0:47:19That's really very...very kind,
0:47:19 > 0:47:23but I'm married and I've got a two-year-old son
0:47:23 > 0:47:26and two step-daughters and a mother-in-law.
0:47:26 > 0:47:29He's a lucky man...whoever he is.
0:47:29 > 0:47:31You've actually met him.
0:47:31 > 0:47:33A doctor?
0:47:33 > 0:47:37Ah, right, yeah, the cool Yank with the stubble and the moves.
0:47:37 > 0:47:40No. The one who removed your key.
0:47:43 > 0:47:46Oh. Oh, right. Well, he's...
0:47:46 > 0:47:48a really nice guy. Really nice.
0:47:48 > 0:47:52- You sound surprised.- No... No.
0:47:52 > 0:47:56I just... I didn't put you and him...
0:47:58 > 0:48:01He's a very, very lucky man.
0:48:36 > 0:48:38Guess what? Spoke to Ma Levy... talked through a few things
0:48:38 > 0:48:41said she couldn't borrow a karaoke machine - but better. Much better...
0:48:41 > 0:48:46Wait for it... she can get her hands on a catering-sized chocolate fountain!
0:48:47 > 0:48:49Can you imagine?
0:48:49 > 0:48:53- Says it's so big you can chocolate-coat a small dog!- Great.
0:48:53 > 0:48:55Ah, I'm so pumped! The girls are gonna love this.
0:48:55 > 0:48:59- Where are we going to put it? - Who cares?
0:48:59 > 0:49:03Sorry... I've just got to go and DO something.
0:49:06 > 0:49:09Chocolate fountain? I'm due a karaoke machine!
0:49:31 > 0:49:34There must be some kind of muddle-up...
0:49:34 > 0:49:36I'm sure it'll all get sorted out.
0:49:37 > 0:49:39Oh, you can bet it will be.
0:49:45 > 0:49:47ALARM
0:49:48 > 0:49:52- Her B/P's through the floor. - Pulse is up. She's cold and clammy.
0:49:52 > 0:49:54It's a bleed...
0:49:54 > 0:49:55We need her back in theatre. Get Ric.

0:50:04 > 0:50:06Mary's crashed.
0:50:14 > 0:50:16So did I...? Did I apologise enough?
0:50:16 > 0:50:18For before?
0:50:18 > 0:50:21Yeah. Don't worry about it. You're not the first patient to ask me out.
0:50:21 > 0:50:24And I bet I'm not the last!
0:50:24 > 0:50:27First one to ask me on his boat, maybe.
0:50:27 > 0:50:30D'you know what, I envy you.
0:50:31 > 0:50:32Yeah...?
0:50:32 > 0:50:37Yeah. I may be moored in a sunny harbour over Christmas...
0:50:37 > 0:50:40- spending the afternoon on deck... - All right, thank you!
0:50:40 > 0:50:42But, I'll be alone.
0:50:42 > 0:50:45And you'll have your Dr Levy...
0:50:58 > 0:51:03- What can you see? - I can't SEE anything. Suction!
0:51:03 > 0:51:06- Where's the bleed? - In the pelvis...by the looks.
0:51:06 > 0:51:08A sidewall vein.
0:51:08 > 0:51:09I thought you'd gone.
0:51:09 > 0:51:12I can't get to it. The stitches just aren't holding.
0:51:12 > 0:51:14You need to under run.
0:51:14 > 0:51:16I can't. Look, she's going to bleed out.
0:51:16 > 0:51:19Ric... I need you in here.
0:51:23 > 0:51:27You have 47 minutes till the end of your shift.
0:51:27 > 0:51:30After that time, I need you to leave the building.
0:51:35 > 0:51:37Come on...
0:51:47 > 0:51:49Mr Cheshire.
0:52:41 > 0:52:45There you go. I moved it.
0:52:45 > 0:52:46What...?
0:52:46 > 0:52:49Well, Security refused to do it... Jobsworths.
0:52:49 > 0:52:53And the powers-that-be were about to call the police to tow it away...
0:52:53 > 0:52:59Ah, thank you - thank you, so much. Well look...
0:52:59 > 0:53:01there's something on the boat, in the fridge,
0:53:01 > 0:53:03I was saving for Christmas, but I'd really like you...
0:53:03 > 0:53:07and your wife to have it. It's just a little thank-you.
0:53:09 > 0:53:10Thank you.
0:53:10 > 0:53:12You happy now...?
0:53:13 > 0:53:16Zipped me open, pulled out all my stuffing...
0:53:16 > 0:53:18Can't wait to get on the bathroom scales!
0:53:18 > 0:53:21Me - Weight Watchers Slimmer of the Week.
0:53:25 > 0:53:26I got it.
0:53:29 > 0:53:30Really?
0:53:35 > 0:53:39What's all this about?
0:53:39 > 0:53:43I'm going home now. I'm not sure when I'll be back.
0:53:43 > 0:53:44But Mr Malick...
0:53:44 > 0:53:46This about this girl, isn't it?
0:53:46 > 0:53:49It's...complicated.
0:53:49 > 0:53:53Don't get coy with me, Ric Griffin! I know your secrets.
0:53:53 > 0:53:56Remember? All those sessions.
0:53:56 > 0:53:58I know when you lost your virginity
0:53:58 > 0:54:01and about the love poem to Shirley Bassey.
0:54:03 > 0:54:07You're being suspended for having an affair with a junior?
0:54:07 > 0:54:10It wasn't an affair. It was just a kiss.
0:54:10 > 0:54:12One stupid kiss.
0:54:12 > 0:54:16How long you been a doctor?
0:54:16 > 0:54:1832 years.
0:54:22 > 0:54:26And they're prepared to throw all that away, for a kiss?
0:55:26 > 0:55:27To Jan.
0:55:27 > 0:55:29To Jan.
0:55:33 > 0:55:35D'you want me to stay?
0:55:52 > 0:55:55We might have a boat of our own, you know...
0:55:55 > 0:55:57sail off somewhere safe. Like, you know,
0:55:57 > 0:56:01the Isle of Wight, or Norfolk Broads...
0:56:01 > 0:56:04Nothing too grand... as long as we're together
0:56:04 > 0:56:06The Isle of WIGHT...?
0:56:09 > 0:56:12I do know I'm not quite the man of your dreams...
0:56:12 > 0:56:15No, I'm big, I'm loud.
0:56:15 > 0:56:17I have a big, loud mother.
0:56:19 > 0:56:22I'm not quite as ambitious as you'd like me to be...
0:56:23 > 0:56:25I love you just the way you are.
0:56:27 > 0:56:30Barry White! You know...
0:56:31 > 0:56:34# I love you just the way... #
0:56:34 > 0:56:36No, it could be your karaoke opener...
0:56:36 > 0:56:40If we were still having a karaoke machine...
0:56:40 > 0:56:43- We're not...? - No, the girls aren't coming now.
0:56:43 > 0:56:48- Oh.- Helen's new boyfriend offered to take them to the ice hotel too.
0:56:48 > 0:56:51Bit of a money-bags apparently.
0:56:52 > 0:56:54Oh well. I guess it'll be easier...
0:56:56 > 0:57:00It'll still be nice. Christmas with you, me and Daniel.
0:57:00 > 0:57:01And your mother....
0:57:03 > 0:57:04And Luc...
0:57:07 > 0:57:10Well, Imelda Cousins found out about the camper van...
0:57:10 > 0:57:13Hospital car park isn't an appropriate place to park it.
0:57:13 > 0:57:16- So, she's served him with an eviction order.- You're joking.
0:57:16 > 0:57:18I know! Five days and it gets towed.
0:57:19 > 0:57:23So... I said he could park it outside the house.
0:57:23 > 0:57:25Just until he finds somewhere safe.
0:57:25 > 0:57:29And then, of course, I said, we'd love him to come and spend Christmas with us too.
0:57:50 > 0:57:52Go on. Say it. You know you want to...
0:57:53 > 0:57:55I told you so.
0:57:55 > 0:57:58Yeah, that must feel better.
0:57:58 > 0:57:59Mmm.
