0:00:38 > 0:00:41Do you ever feel like booze isn't quite scratching your itch?

0:00:41 > 0:00:44- What happened?- I don't even know, she just collapsed.

0:00:44 > 0:00:48It's not what you're doing, it's the constant fear of what you're on the edge of doing.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50I'm sick trying to second guess you. I can't do it any more.

0:00:50 > 0:00:52You're just going to drag us all down with you.

0:00:52 > 0:00:55- Would somebody mind telling me what's going on? - It's an announcement.

0:00:55 > 0:00:58You all received the e-mail from Mr Self this morning announcing me

0:00:58 > 0:01:01as the new director of Cardiothoracics.

0:01:01 > 0:01:05I just want to make sure we're all clear exactly what that means.

0:01:05 > 0:01:06The buck stops here.

0:01:06 > 0:01:10In the current climate, Holby City relies more than ever

0:01:10 > 0:01:14on the generosity of individuals, businesses and community groups

0:01:14 > 0:01:17for funding, so events like tonight's charity ball

0:01:17 > 0:01:19really do make a difference.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21Thank you all for coming down.

0:01:24 > 0:01:26Clive.

0:01:26 > 0:01:27Mr Self!

0:01:27 > 0:01:31I'd hoped we'd seen the last of you.

0:01:31 > 0:01:32What are you doing here?

0:01:32 > 0:01:35- I run the place. - Had your fill of Northbridge?

0:01:35 > 0:01:37Er, yeah, that's a long story.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40Star of stage and screen now?

0:01:40 > 0:01:43Oh, well, I'm just promoting a charity fund-raising event.

0:01:43 > 0:01:46Oh... Been to plenty of those in my time.

0:01:46 > 0:01:47So, how are you?

0:01:47 > 0:01:50Well, you're the expert, you tell me.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52Well, you've looked better.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54'Fraid I'm not long for this world.

0:01:54 > 0:01:55Really?

0:01:55 > 0:01:58All over bar the shouting...

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Oh, Clive, I am sorry.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03Nothing to do with your handiwork, I assure you.

0:02:03 > 0:02:05Glad to hear it.

0:02:05 > 0:02:06So what is the problem?

0:02:06 > 0:02:09Oh, I won't bother you with the details.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11No, no, please...

0:02:11 > 0:02:13Haven't you got somewhere more important to be?

0:02:13 > 0:02:18I'm the CEO, I do whatever I want. I'll take over from here.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21- Where are we headed? - Keller. Keller.

0:02:23 > 0:02:24'Mo, how's the list looking?'

0:02:24 > 0:02:26Running like clockwork.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28We need to get our theatre times down.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31- Do we?- Yes, more space for more complex cases.

0:02:31 > 0:02:34I thought you were going to buy some fresh bread last night.

0:02:34 > 0:02:38- Yeah, forgot.- I went to make myself some toast this morning and it was full of minging mould.

0:02:38 > 0:02:39Sorry...

0:02:42 > 0:02:44I think our turnover in theatre's pretty good.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47And that's your problem, Mo, setting the bar at "pretty good".

0:02:47 > 0:02:49- You got a minute? - Look, can it wait?

0:02:49 > 0:02:51- PAGER BEEPS - I just want a word about Emma...

0:02:51 > 0:02:53I'm sorry.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57- Jac...- Yes?

0:02:57 > 0:03:00- Did you get my message?- No.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02- Oh.- What?

0:03:02 > 0:03:04Er... This is Georgia Staniford and...

0:03:04 > 0:03:06Will Berry.

0:03:06 > 0:03:08Georgia's a patient of mine.

0:03:08 > 0:03:10- And?- And she's 22 weeks pregnant

0:03:10 > 0:03:13and her baby has just been diagnosed with aortic stenosis.

0:03:13 > 0:03:14Right.

0:03:14 > 0:03:18Right, and I was telling Georgia and Will that you'd spent some time in Stockholm...

0:03:18 > 0:03:22- Studying techniques in foetal heart intervention. - We need a second opinion.

0:03:22 > 0:03:23Who made the diagnosis?

0:03:23 > 0:03:25Brian Rutterford.

0:03:25 > 0:03:26He's a decent enough guy.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29- He seemed OK, but... - We want to make sure he's right.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32Fair enough. Get her checked in and I'll take a look.

0:03:34 > 0:03:35'Listen, Clive,'

0:03:35 > 0:03:38anything you need, anything at all...

0:03:38 > 0:03:40Save yourself for the living, Mr Self.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44- I'm serious.- So am I.

0:03:46 > 0:03:47- Digby.- Yes?

0:03:47 > 0:03:50- Got a job for you.- Right, I, er...

0:03:50 > 0:03:53- It's OK, it's nothing complicated. - Bring it on.

0:03:53 > 0:03:54- What?- Nothing.

0:03:54 > 0:03:58We have a VIP on the ward. Clive Lloyd.

0:03:58 > 0:04:00OK, a VIP?

0:04:00 > 0:04:02- He's dying of cancer.- Sorry.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04He's having a blockage removed from his PEG feed.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06He's desperate to get out of here soon as.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09- Fine.- I'm relying on you to make the whole process as quick

0:04:09 > 0:04:12and as painless as possible.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15- No problem.- That would make a pleasant change.

0:04:20 > 0:04:22Is this your first pregnancy?

0:04:22 > 0:04:24- Yeah. - It was our first date, too.

0:04:24 > 0:04:26Oh!

0:04:26 > 0:04:28- Wasn't even a date.- No?

0:04:28 > 0:04:34We...met at a party, a launch of some new designer gin.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37- Free booze all night. - Next thing you know...

0:04:37 > 0:04:40- We've made a baby. - Who says romance is dead?

0:04:41 > 0:04:44'Was that you, crashing around in the middle of the night?'

0:04:44 > 0:04:45- Might have been.- Why?

0:04:45 > 0:04:47- Cheese on toast.- What?

0:04:47 > 0:04:49- I was starving. - At four in the morning?

0:04:49 > 0:04:51So?

0:04:51 > 0:04:53Oh, I suppose it beats popping pills.

0:04:54 > 0:04:55Digby...

0:04:55 > 0:04:58Sorry, can't stop, got a PEG blockage to clear.

0:04:58 > 0:04:59That's nurse's work.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01Not when it's the VIP patient of the CEO.

0:05:01 > 0:05:06- Really?- Yes. Who happens to be terminally ill.

0:05:06 > 0:05:07Who is he?

0:05:07 > 0:05:08Oh, I don't know. Eminent professor,

0:05:08 > 0:05:12minor member of the landed gentry, who knows?

0:05:12 > 0:05:13Where's he gone?

0:05:13 > 0:05:16Where's who gone?

0:05:16 > 0:05:17Mr Lloyd...

0:05:17 > 0:05:19Aah, thought they'd carted me off to the morgue?

0:05:19 > 0:05:21No, I was just...you know.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24- Who's this?- Dr Zosia March.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26Oh, charmed!

0:05:26 > 0:05:28- I believe you know my father?- Do I?

0:05:28 > 0:05:30- If we could just...er...- Guy Self?

0:05:30 > 0:05:33Oh, my favourite brain surgeon.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35OK, I'm going to be flushing you through with this.

0:05:35 > 0:05:39Cut a nasty little tumour out of my frontal lobe a few years back.

0:05:39 > 0:05:40OK, right.

0:05:40 > 0:05:43It's going to be a little bit easier if I just lie you back,

0:05:43 > 0:05:44there you go...

0:05:45 > 0:05:48Then just as I thought I'd got away with it...

0:05:48 > 0:05:50Do you have a definitive diagnosis?

0:05:50 > 0:05:51Mmm...

0:05:51 > 0:05:52Oesophageal cancer.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55Accompanied by a whole host of secondaries.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57Dr March, please.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00- Nice pyjamas.- Mulberry silk.

0:06:00 > 0:06:02HE YAWNS

0:06:02 > 0:06:03Pardon me.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07OK. It is my aim to get Mr Lloyd home today.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10I've seen quite enough of hospitals in recent years.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12- I'm happy to sort the PEG out if you like?- Er, no.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14- Under the circumstances I'd really like to...- Suits me!

0:06:14 > 0:06:18- PAGER BEEPS - Uh, no, Mr Self insisted...

0:06:18 > 0:06:20- What's up?- I'm supposed to be at an MDT meeting.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22You go, I'll take over.

0:06:22 > 0:06:23Excellent.

0:06:28 > 0:06:31If you...er...insist.

0:06:31 > 0:06:33Thank you. I'll be back.

0:06:33 > 0:06:35I booked us a suite at the hotel for tonight.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39Be a lot cheaper getting a cab home.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Hey! Where's your sense of romance?

0:06:42 > 0:06:45Has it got a spa? I'd kill for a good massage.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47Hot stones, the works...

0:06:47 > 0:06:51Fletch, I believe you're doing a spot of auctioneering tonight.

0:06:51 > 0:06:53Mmmm. He's been polishing his gavel all morning.

0:06:53 > 0:06:54How'd you land that job?

0:06:54 > 0:06:56Head-hunted by the governor.

0:06:56 > 0:06:59The guests'll be signing cheques just to shut him up.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01Want a cuppa, Jill? >

0:07:01 > 0:07:04- Mrs Overall's off again. - Two sugars, isn't it, love..?

0:07:05 > 0:07:07Debbie, will you please get back to bed.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09Keep your wig on, Lord Snooty.

0:07:09 > 0:07:12- Never going to tire of that joke, are you?- Eh?

0:07:12 > 0:07:15The HCA went round with tea five minutes ago. Come on, please.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17- I only want to help. - I appreciate that...

0:07:17 > 0:07:19- Problems? - Nothing I can't handle.

0:07:19 > 0:07:21- Doing the rounds, Debs?- Trying to.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24And what did I say about that abscess...?

0:07:24 > 0:07:26- I want to keep busy.- Deborah...

0:07:26 > 0:07:28It takes my mind off turkeying.

0:07:32 > 0:07:33That abscess bursts before we drain it,

0:07:33 > 0:07:35you'll have more than cold turkey to worry about.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37Does he have to be so horrible?

0:07:37 > 0:07:38He's right, you know...

0:07:40 > 0:07:45I'm fine, Eileen. Rumours of my death, et cetera...

0:07:46 > 0:07:50Yes, I should have mentioned the ambulance was coming...

0:07:50 > 0:07:54Yes, I'll see you later.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57Was that your wife?

0:07:57 > 0:08:02No, I doubt any of my wives would be remotely interested

0:08:02 > 0:08:04in my imminent demise.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07There's been a few of them?

0:08:07 > 0:08:10Yeah, call me hopelessly romantic.

0:08:10 > 0:08:12It sounds like someone cares.

0:08:12 > 0:08:17It was my guardian angel. Next door neighbour.

0:08:17 > 0:08:18The lovely Eileen.

0:08:19 > 0:08:23Has the oncologist put a timescale on things?

0:08:23 > 0:08:28You share your father's penchant for the straight question!

0:08:28 > 0:08:29Feel free to avoid it.

0:08:31 > 0:08:34I believe you lost your mother to cancer.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39April of last year.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41- Sorry to hear that.- Thanks...

0:08:45 > 0:08:48Well, this is all very Terms of Endearment!

0:08:48 > 0:08:51Better get started.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54HE YAWNS

0:08:54 > 0:08:56Am I boring you?

0:08:56 > 0:08:59All I seem to do recently is sleep.

0:08:59 > 0:09:01Really?

0:09:01 > 0:09:05I was rather hoping to go out kicking and screaming.

0:09:05 > 0:09:10Not snoring against the dying of the light.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13How are we getting on?

0:09:13 > 0:09:18- Just about to clear his PEG. - What's the hold-up?

0:09:18 > 0:09:20- There isn't any.- But I've been gone at least...

0:09:20 > 0:09:24Blame me, doctor. I've been distracting her.

0:09:24 > 0:09:26- Right, I'll take over.- No, it's OK.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29No, no. Please.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32Suit yourself.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37All this must have come as quite a shock to you.

0:09:37 > 0:09:40Well, I've been thinking about kids for a while, but...

0:09:40 > 0:09:42Just not with a barman.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44The diagnosis was accurate.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46But there is another issue.

0:09:46 > 0:09:51We've had a look at the original scans. The stenosis has got worse since your last assessment.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54- That was only a fortnight ago.- Is there anything you can do about it?

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Yes, a percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty.

0:09:57 > 0:10:01It's an operation on the baby's heart in the womb to stop the problem

0:10:01 > 0:10:02from developing further.

0:10:02 > 0:10:03And you'd do this?

0:10:03 > 0:10:07I am qualified to perform this procedure but these cases are usually referred

0:10:07 > 0:10:09to the specialist centre in Sheffield.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12- Is it dangerous? - It's a very rare procedure, but...

0:10:12 > 0:10:14If you don't have it, put simply,

0:10:14 > 0:10:17the left side of the baby's heart will stop growing.

0:10:17 > 0:10:22If you make it to full term, it's a condition that guarantees the need for further surgery

0:10:22 > 0:10:23and maybe even a transplant.

0:10:27 > 0:10:29Hi.

0:10:29 > 0:10:30Hey.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36Are you still going to the ball tonight?

0:10:36 > 0:10:38Ugly sisters permitting.

0:10:38 > 0:10:40I thought maybe we could head over together.

0:10:41 > 0:10:43- Sacha...- No strings.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47You just want to save on cab fare, don't you?

0:10:47 > 0:10:48Yes, exactly.

0:10:50 > 0:10:52Maybe I could pick you up about seven?

0:10:52 > 0:10:56I was thinking of, uh, going straight from work..

0:10:56 > 0:10:58- OK, well, er...- Alone.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02I checked Clive Lloyd's meds...

0:11:02 > 0:11:04- What? Why? - I think he's over-sedated.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06- Oh...- He's complaining of drowsiness...

0:11:06 > 0:11:08- OK, those drugs were prescribed by his oncologist.- I know, but...

0:11:08 > 0:11:12- My job is to clear his feeding tube and then send him home. - What? Even if...

0:11:12 > 0:11:15Which is why I'm personally going to sit and watch this delicious liquid meal

0:11:15 > 0:11:17- disappear into his system.- But...

0:11:17 > 0:11:19Lunchtime!

0:11:19 > 0:11:20Oh, joy(!)

0:11:20 > 0:11:22That looks appetising(!)

0:11:22 > 0:11:26One of the pleasures of losing the use of one's gullet.

0:11:26 > 0:11:30What I wouldn't give for one more filet mignon.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33All seems to be going nicely.

0:11:33 > 0:11:3832-day hung, cooked blue as a WI perm...

0:11:39 > 0:11:42Erm, shouldn't you be at the outpatient clinic?

0:11:42 > 0:11:45- Me?- It's your turn to assist with the bloods.

0:11:45 > 0:11:47- Right, yep...- You've forgotten, haven't you?- No, I haven't.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49- Off you go.- Yep.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51One second, OK?

0:11:51 > 0:11:54OK, right, can you just check that it's working perfectly?

0:11:54 > 0:11:57Yep, and then we'll sort your discharge papers, OK?

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Not exactly dignified.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11My mum would've really liked you.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14Shame our paths didn't cross in a chemo suite.

0:12:15 > 0:12:18I think I can do something about your sleep problem.

0:12:18 > 0:12:19Really?

0:12:19 > 0:12:21If you want me to, that is.

0:12:21 > 0:12:25Look, what I don't want is to see out my time semi-comatose.

0:12:26 > 0:12:27Right.

0:12:27 > 0:12:30Ah, I've got some paperwork for the pair of you.

0:12:30 > 0:12:31For me?

0:12:31 > 0:12:33Yeah, parental stuff.

0:12:33 > 0:12:36You can fill it in for Georgia if you like.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38- Better not. - Get her to sign it. It's fine.

0:12:38 > 0:12:41There might be stuff I don't know.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43It's pretty straightforward.

0:12:43 > 0:12:45Like her middle name, and her postcode...

0:12:45 > 0:12:48No worries, why don't you just give us your details for now?

0:12:50 > 0:12:51Thanks.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Um... You OK?

0:12:57 > 0:12:58Bit shell-shocked.

0:12:58 > 0:13:01Well, I'm not surprised.

0:13:01 > 0:13:04It's bizarre, a one-night stand ending up like this...

0:13:04 > 0:13:07Good on you for sticking with it.

0:13:07 > 0:13:08You've got to, haven't you?

0:13:08 > 0:13:11Well, there's a lot of blokes who'd disagree with you there.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14Never thought when I poured Georgia that first gin,

0:13:14 > 0:13:17a few months later, I'd be praying for my kid's life. You know?

0:13:17 > 0:13:18I know how you feel.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21I doubt it.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24Actually, I had a very similar experience with my baby girl.

0:13:26 > 0:13:27She had the same condition?

0:13:27 > 0:13:30Not the same, no, but she had serious problems.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35Did she...pull through?

0:13:35 > 0:13:37It was touch and go, but, yeah.

0:13:37 > 0:13:40She's a tough wee thing, like her mum.

0:13:42 > 0:13:45How did you manage to keep your head together?

0:13:46 > 0:13:48I dunno...

0:13:48 > 0:13:52you know, it's amazing what you can cope with

0:13:52 > 0:13:53when you really have to.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12# I said that's life

0:14:12 > 0:14:15# And as funny as it may seem

0:14:15 > 0:14:20# Some people get their kicks stomping on a dream

0:14:20 > 0:14:26# But I'm never going to let it Let it bring me down

0:14:27 > 0:14:32# Cos this fine old world keeps spinning around... #

0:14:34 > 0:14:36- Mr Lloyd...- Sorry...

0:14:36 > 0:14:37Time for your medication.

0:14:37 > 0:14:41Yeah, lost in the mists of time...

0:14:41 > 0:14:42Mmm, I heard.

0:14:42 > 0:14:46Hold on. There's been a change of plan.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48- Has there? - We're cutting down Clive's dose.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50Has that come from the oncologist?

0:14:50 > 0:14:52It's an on-ward decision.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55- Well, Arthur hasn't put it in the notes.- I'll do it now.

0:14:55 > 0:14:56If you say so.

0:15:10 > 0:15:11Thanks.

0:15:11 > 0:15:12It'll mean a bit more pain.

0:15:12 > 0:15:17Well, at least it'll remind me I'm still alive.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19- But hopefully the fog will lift. - Then it's worth it.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23Have you got any family to look in on you?

0:15:23 > 0:15:25- No.- No children?

0:15:25 > 0:15:28No. Just three bewitching,

0:15:28 > 0:15:31betrayed ex-wives.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33Betrayed?

0:15:33 > 0:15:36Fidelity was never my strong point.

0:15:36 > 0:15:37Oh, dear.

0:15:37 > 0:15:42But believe it or not, I never found attracting women a problem.

0:15:42 > 0:15:43No?

0:15:43 > 0:15:45Keeping them was another matter.

0:15:45 > 0:15:49Sounds like you've tasted the high life.

0:15:49 > 0:15:52Mmm. Too much work, too many parties.

0:15:52 > 0:15:53What did you do for a living?

0:15:56 > 0:15:58What didn't I do..?

0:15:58 > 0:16:01So you've got a care package in place?

0:16:01 > 0:16:05Yeah, the district nurse calls in a few times a week.

0:16:05 > 0:16:06Right.

0:16:06 > 0:16:10And...er, Eileen next door, she helps out with the PEG feed

0:16:10 > 0:16:15on the off days. We used to go for days out,

0:16:15 > 0:16:18but her car's been off the road for months.

0:16:20 > 0:16:23Dr March. Some bloke has just delivered a takeaway for you.

0:16:23 > 0:16:25Great.

0:16:25 > 0:16:27Hospital food beneath you?

0:16:27 > 0:16:28Wait and see...

0:16:31 > 0:16:33Any news?

0:16:33 > 0:16:36We're still waiting for Sheffield to get back to us.

0:16:36 > 0:16:38How long's it going to take?

0:16:38 > 0:16:43- Sorry.- Was the male nurse's baby treated at the specialist centre?

0:16:43 > 0:16:44What?

0:16:44 > 0:16:46He told Will he had a child with a similar problem.

0:16:48 > 0:16:49Er, yeah.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52Was the mum transferred to Sheffield?

0:16:52 > 0:16:54No, they were treated here.

0:16:54 > 0:16:55How come?

0:16:55 > 0:16:57It was just different.

0:16:58 > 0:16:59Right.

0:17:00 > 0:17:01Did he say anything else?

0:17:01 > 0:17:05Just said it was tough, but it all worked out for the best.

0:17:06 > 0:17:08Well, there you go, then.

0:17:13 > 0:17:14PATIENT WHEEZES

0:17:14 > 0:17:16You OK?

0:17:16 > 0:17:17Cramps...

0:17:19 > 0:17:22Still determined to avoid the methadone?

0:17:22 > 0:17:26I promised my mum... I'm doing it properly this time.

0:17:26 > 0:17:27No, no. Fair enough.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32She won't have me back in the house otherwise.

0:17:32 > 0:17:35Well, we're sorry about the delay.

0:17:38 > 0:17:39Grr!

0:17:39 > 0:17:41You all right?

0:17:41 > 0:17:44That was my mum's nursing agency.

0:17:44 > 0:17:48- What's up?- The carer I'd booked in for tonight has cried off sick.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51- Can't they get a sub? - No-one available.

0:17:51 > 0:17:52Oh, so you can't go to the ball?

0:17:52 > 0:17:55No, I really want to go to that party.

0:17:55 > 0:17:56It's no big deal, is it?

0:17:56 > 0:17:58I need sane conversation.

0:17:58 > 0:17:59It's just another work do.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01With people under the age of 75.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03Same old faces...

0:18:03 > 0:18:04And wine.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06That bad?

0:18:06 > 0:18:07Oh, you don't know the half...

0:18:07 > 0:18:08Mums, eh.

0:18:08 > 0:18:12And to top it all, I'm off to the board meeting from hell.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15'If I'm honest, I'm not quite sure'

0:18:15 > 0:18:18- why you want a place on the board. - Or what you bring to the table.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21Our previous relationship wasn't exactly a match made in heaven.

0:18:21 > 0:18:25The last thing we need is a repeat performance.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28So why would you want to come back for more?

0:18:31 > 0:18:32I came back for you, Serena.

0:18:34 > 0:18:35What?

0:18:35 > 0:18:36Joke.

0:18:36 > 0:18:37Hilarious(!)

0:18:37 > 0:18:39No, but seriously, Mr Tressler.

0:18:39 > 0:18:43We could have all have handled things better last time out.

0:18:43 > 0:18:45Oh, could we?

0:18:45 > 0:18:48But the fact remains - I want to make a difference.

0:18:48 > 0:18:50So it might as well be us?

0:18:50 > 0:18:53My son has stuck with this place

0:18:53 > 0:18:56and to my amazement, he actually seems to be thriving.

0:18:57 > 0:19:01Which means that I'm invested before I even make an investment.

0:19:03 > 0:19:04Hmm.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07Right, shall we take a vote?

0:19:07 > 0:19:10If you wouldn't mind waiting outside, Mr Tressler.

0:19:13 > 0:19:15I've bought a table for the big do tonight.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17- Good for you.- You going?

0:19:17 > 0:19:20- We'll all be there.- Actually, I might have to give it a miss.

0:19:20 > 0:19:21Again?

0:19:21 > 0:19:23Are you trying to avoid me?

0:19:23 > 0:19:24My mother's not well.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.

0:19:26 > 0:19:30I can't leave her on her own and I'm struggling to find a carer.

0:19:31 > 0:19:35Can't knock a woman for looking after her mum.

0:19:35 > 0:19:37Some people try.

0:19:40 > 0:19:41Voila.

0:19:41 > 0:19:42What's this?

0:19:42 > 0:19:46Filet Mignon, cooked blue, pommes dauphinoise.

0:19:47 > 0:19:50Remember the bit where I said I couldn't swallow...

0:19:50 > 0:19:54Yes, but you can still see, smell and hear what it tastes like.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57And what would I want to do that for?

0:19:57 > 0:20:00Beats a protein shake in a drip.

0:20:00 > 0:20:01Granted, but...

0:20:01 > 0:20:03So I'm going to eat it for you.

0:20:03 > 0:20:05HE CHUCKLES

0:20:05 > 0:20:08What a strange girl you are!

0:20:10 > 0:20:12Well, if it makes you happy...

0:20:12 > 0:20:13Looks good.

0:20:15 > 0:20:16Melt in the mouth!

0:20:17 > 0:20:19What's going on?

0:20:19 > 0:20:23Dr March kindly provided me with my last supper.

0:20:23 > 0:20:24Right, you're on a PEG feed.

0:20:24 > 0:20:27She's eating for me!

0:20:27 > 0:20:31- The deaf find ways to enjoy music, so why shouldn't...?- OK, excuse us...

0:20:31 > 0:20:32Can I just have a quick word?

0:20:35 > 0:20:38Um... What are you thinking?

0:20:38 > 0:20:40I just told you.

0:20:40 > 0:20:42Right. The man has oesophageal cancer.

0:20:42 > 0:20:45- Exactly.- So how does this possibly help him?- If you can't tell that...

0:20:45 > 0:20:48OK, I know you think you've made some sort of connection with him, but...

0:20:48 > 0:20:51Yes, of course, I have my reservations. >

0:20:51 > 0:20:57My main concern is the future of Holby City.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59So let's do it, shall we?

0:21:02 > 0:21:04How's my patient?

0:21:04 > 0:21:05He's fine.

0:21:05 > 0:21:06Digby looking after you?

0:21:06 > 0:21:09Well, Dr March has done most of the leg-work but...

0:21:09 > 0:21:11Yeah, but I was at an MDT meeting...

0:21:11 > 0:21:14- Yes, OK, we get the picture. - Your daughter's a credit to you.

0:21:14 > 0:21:15I know.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17You must be very proud.

0:21:17 > 0:21:18Yes, I am, actually.

0:21:19 > 0:21:23Right, um, as soon as we get back to the ward

0:21:23 > 0:21:25you can sign those discharge papers.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27Make sure he gets a lift home.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29Will do. Sorry. D'you want to...?

0:21:32 > 0:21:34I'll be seeing you, Clive.

0:21:34 > 0:21:35On the other side.

0:21:38 > 0:21:39Digby.

0:21:40 > 0:21:41Back to the ward.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43It's going to take a week?

0:21:43 > 0:21:45Technically, you're not classed as an emergency.

0:21:45 > 0:21:47How can this not be an emergency?

0:21:47 > 0:21:50Well, they have to prioritise more serious cases.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52Is there anywhere else we can go?

0:21:52 > 0:21:54You need to be in the specialist centre.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56So what do we do in the meantime?

0:21:56 > 0:21:57We'd like to keep Georgia in...

0:21:57 > 0:21:59Because you think something'll go wrong?

0:21:59 > 0:22:00No.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02This is a nightmare...

0:22:02 > 0:22:03I don't mind a few days in bed.

0:22:03 > 0:22:06I mean the whole thing!

0:22:06 > 0:22:07Excuse us a minute.

0:22:10 > 0:22:14Look at this. That baby's in the optimum position for valvuloplasty.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16Well, that's Sod's Law.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18- Let's hope it still is in a week's time.- Chances are she won't be.

0:22:18 > 0:22:21- Then they'll have to manipulate the baby back into...- Which is more risk,

0:22:21 > 0:22:25on top of the stresses of transporting the mother halfway across the country.

0:22:25 > 0:22:26- What else can we do?- Plenty.

0:22:29 > 0:22:30Such as?

0:22:31 > 0:22:36- Mr Lloyd. Your ambulance'll be here in a minute.- Good.

0:22:36 > 0:22:37Ooh.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40Are you OK?

0:22:40 > 0:22:42Yeah, feeling more alert already.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44Really?

0:22:44 > 0:22:47Suppose that might be psychosomatic.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49Sorry, what would?

0:22:49 > 0:22:51I haven't been on the lower dose that long.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53- Lower dose?- Of painkillers.

0:22:55 > 0:22:56What?

0:22:56 > 0:22:59Dr March said she'd sort the new prescription out.

0:23:02 > 0:23:04Not a problem, is it?

0:23:04 > 0:23:06Right, are you in more pain than you were before?

0:23:06 > 0:23:08I can cope.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10OK, I'll have to change it back.

0:23:10 > 0:23:13- Why?- Cos you can't leave, otherwise.

0:23:13 > 0:23:16I'm sleepwalking through the days!

0:23:16 > 0:23:19But your palliative care team decide on your drug regime.

0:23:19 > 0:23:21It's not working for me.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25Right. OK. She's a junior doctor...

0:23:25 > 0:23:28I need to keep a clear head!

0:23:28 > 0:23:30But those drugs were prescribed for a reason.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33Yeah, and I'm cutting down on them for a better one.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35- Please, Mr Lloyd.- No.

0:23:37 > 0:23:39Then I'm going to have to keep you under observation,

0:23:39 > 0:23:42- for the rest of the day.- Fine.

0:23:42 > 0:23:46- But you're meant to be going home. - A few more hours won't kill me.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51All hail the prodigal!

0:23:51 > 0:23:54Dad... What are you doing here?

0:23:54 > 0:23:57You are looking at the newest member of the Holby board.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59What? Since when?

0:23:59 > 0:24:00Today.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04I've been hearing about your exam results.

0:24:04 > 0:24:05Oh, yeah?

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Top 15 in the whole country.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11Yeah, who told you that?

0:24:11 > 0:24:14Your crackpot mother's been singing it from the rooftops.

0:24:14 > 0:24:16Oh, yeah, that'd be right...

0:24:16 > 0:24:19Sounds like you could be running the place in a year or two.

0:24:19 > 0:24:21Yeah, I highly doubt that, Dad.

0:24:21 > 0:24:27Well, you've finally proved you can knuckle down and make something of yourself.

0:24:27 > 0:24:29Which makes me want to get involved.

0:24:29 > 0:24:30Mr Tressler.

0:24:30 > 0:24:34Mr Di Lucca, good to see you.

0:24:34 > 0:24:35My dad's just joined the board.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37Nice work if you can get it.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40Would you mind if I hung around for a while?

0:24:40 > 0:24:42Who am I to tell a dignitary what to do?

0:24:42 > 0:24:44I'd like to shadow the boy.

0:24:44 > 0:24:48See exactly how he became one of the nation's top doctors.

0:24:48 > 0:24:49When did that happen?

0:24:49 > 0:24:53It's all in black and white. Exam results.

0:24:53 > 0:24:55Aah...

0:24:55 > 0:24:56Lead on.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05Hypothetically, who would we need to do the valvuloplasty here?

0:25:06 > 0:25:09Well, you, me,

0:25:09 > 0:25:12and either a foetal cardiologist

0:25:12 > 0:25:14or a foetal medicine specialist.

0:25:14 > 0:25:15Got any on speed dial?

0:25:15 > 0:25:17Ha, yeah(!)

0:25:19 > 0:25:22- What? Now, hang on. You're not serious, are you?- Deadly.

0:25:22 > 0:25:24- We can't do it here. - Why not?

0:25:24 > 0:25:26Governance approval, for a start.

0:25:26 > 0:25:29Well, if the patient's on board and we can find a specialist...

0:25:29 > 0:25:31But have we got compelling enough reason?

0:25:31 > 0:25:33I think a life is compelling enough.

0:25:33 > 0:25:36Can't argue with that, can you?

0:25:36 > 0:25:38We can do this. Me and you.

0:25:41 > 0:25:43Well, I suppose there are a couple of people I could call...

0:25:43 > 0:25:45So, what are you waiting for?

0:25:46 > 0:25:48'Are you going to this ball tonight?'

0:25:48 > 0:25:50It's not really my kind of thing.

0:25:53 > 0:25:56I really appreciate all the effort you've gone to.

0:25:56 > 0:25:57My pleasure.

0:25:57 > 0:26:01Not everyone would have paid as much attention

0:26:01 > 0:26:03to a dying old man.

0:26:03 > 0:26:07- You're a clearly a lot more than that.- No, I'm not.

0:26:07 > 0:26:10- You could teach the other patients plenty...- About?

0:26:10 > 0:26:15About courage, dignity,

0:26:15 > 0:26:18- living life to the full... - Do you think?

0:26:18 > 0:26:20I hope to be as brave when my time comes.

0:26:20 > 0:26:24Very poor judge of character, aren't you?

0:26:24 > 0:26:25I don't think so.

0:26:26 > 0:26:29What if I told you I'm petrified?

0:26:29 > 0:26:32I've never lived that kind of life.

0:26:34 > 0:26:37- I'm sorry...?- I'm not a bigwig,

0:26:37 > 0:26:39I'm not a bon viveur.

0:26:42 > 0:26:43I was a waiter.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49- A waiter?- A ghost at the feast

0:26:49 > 0:26:51for the whole of my working life.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54But you seem so...

0:26:54 > 0:26:59You develop a great line in charm

0:26:59 > 0:27:01if you're relying on tips.

0:27:01 > 0:27:04Well, you certainly had me fooled.

0:27:04 > 0:27:07- I didn't intend to mislead you. - I know that.

0:27:11 > 0:27:16Time's almost up and I don't know what it was all for.

0:27:16 > 0:27:21I'm scared I'm going to die alone

0:27:21 > 0:27:24trying to remember what my dreams were.

0:27:27 > 0:27:28You're not alone.

0:27:30 > 0:27:34- Would you consent to having the operation here if we could do it ourselves?- Here?

0:27:34 > 0:27:36I think waiting a week is a mistake.

0:27:36 > 0:27:37I just want the baby to be safe.

0:27:37 > 0:27:40I thought she needed to be in the specialist centre?

0:27:40 > 0:27:41Not necessarily.

0:27:43 > 0:27:44I'm up for it.

0:27:44 > 0:27:45Excellent.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49- You can't be serious.- Why not? - We're not geared up for...

0:27:49 > 0:27:53- Look, I know what I'm doing. - But you can't just... - Who's going to stop me?

0:27:53 > 0:27:56Look, would you rather be pushing bits of paper around a desk

0:27:56 > 0:27:59or testing yourself to the absolute limits?

0:27:59 > 0:28:01- Right, well, you're going to need a specialist.- Jac.

0:28:01 > 0:28:03- Talk to me.- We're good to go.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05My office.

0:28:07 > 0:28:10Didn't take long for her new job to go to her head, did it?

0:28:10 > 0:28:12This is about a lot more than a new job.

0:28:12 > 0:28:14'Right, where have you been?'

0:28:14 > 0:28:17Outside with Mr Lloyd. Why? Should I have asked permission?

0:28:17 > 0:28:20Well, I've just had to turn a patient away cos we're full.

0:28:20 > 0:28:24- And?- And I wouldn't have to if Clive Lloyd had been discharged.

0:28:24 > 0:28:27Ifs and ands were pots and pans...

0:28:27 > 0:28:28Pot..?

0:28:28 > 0:28:30What does that mean?

0:28:31 > 0:28:33How are you feeling?

0:28:33 > 0:28:34Oh, never better...

0:28:36 > 0:28:37Clive...?

0:28:37 > 0:28:40Clive! Are you OK?

0:28:40 > 0:28:41Yeah?

0:28:41 > 0:28:43There, OK?

0:28:43 > 0:28:45Clive?

0:28:46 > 0:28:47Clive?

0:28:47 > 0:28:48Dr March!

0:28:50 > 0:28:51OK, can you hear me?

0:28:51 > 0:28:53Yeah?

0:28:53 > 0:28:54He's collapsed.

0:28:54 > 0:28:56'Your thing's trauma, isn't it?'

0:28:56 > 0:28:59- Well remembered.- Interesting enough, I suppose, but, er...

0:28:59 > 0:29:03Actually, some of the advances we're making recently are pretty...

0:29:03 > 0:29:06Think we'll need something a bit more high-profile for this fella.

0:29:06 > 0:29:08Where's my counsellor?

0:29:08 > 0:29:09Is there still no sign?

0:29:11 > 0:29:13Could you clean Debbie up for me, please?

0:29:13 > 0:29:14Sorry.

0:29:14 > 0:29:17- She's in withdrawal. - Actually, we have a team meeting

0:29:17 > 0:29:20shortly so this might be a good point to take a break.

0:29:20 > 0:29:22I can stick with it.

0:29:22 > 0:29:24It's pretty dull stuff.

0:29:24 > 0:29:26I'd like to sit in.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29- Fine.- So...

0:29:29 > 0:29:33- What do you think?- About? - His specialism.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36You're his boss, where would you like to see him end up?

0:29:38 > 0:29:40'Bet you thought it was curtains for a minute.'

0:29:40 > 0:29:41Not at all.

0:29:41 > 0:29:43Dr Digby knows a simple faint when he sees one.

0:29:43 > 0:29:46Yes, I'm sure the reduction in pain relief won't have helped.

0:29:46 > 0:29:49- I'd say that was irrelevant. - Either way.

0:29:51 > 0:29:52Right, we're going to have to

0:29:52 > 0:29:55- keep you in overnight at least. - Not a chance.

0:29:56 > 0:30:00Um, right, I can't really send you packing after an episode like that.

0:30:00 > 0:30:02Regardless of the CEO's wishes.

0:30:02 > 0:30:04I'll discharge myself.

0:30:04 > 0:30:07You were perfectly happy to stay under observation earlier.

0:30:07 > 0:30:10- Yeah, for a couple of hours. - Right, this is going to be a day or two at the most.

0:30:10 > 0:30:14If I stay put now, something tells me

0:30:14 > 0:30:16I'll never get out of here.

0:30:16 > 0:30:17Mr Lloyd, that is...

0:30:17 > 0:30:19Sorry.

0:30:22 > 0:30:26Right, well, that's your prerogative...

0:30:29 > 0:30:33Actually, would you mind sticking around for a while?

0:30:33 > 0:30:35'This is ground-breaking work.'

0:30:35 > 0:30:38I know there are protocol issues, but the parameters are in place.

0:30:38 > 0:30:41I'm certain to get informed consent

0:30:41 > 0:30:43so I just need the OK from board level.

0:30:43 > 0:30:46If we can pull this off under emergency conditions,

0:30:46 > 0:30:49- then we can push for full DOH approval.- Yes.- Then I could bring in

0:30:49 > 0:30:52- the people I worked with in Stockholm.- Fine.- We're talking about

0:30:52 > 0:30:56- saving...- Jac.- What?- You had me at "ground-breaking".- Thank you.

0:31:02 > 0:31:04- What are you doing? - I need something...

0:31:04 > 0:31:06I'm sorry, but I can't help you!

0:31:06 > 0:31:10- Anything to make it stop! - I can't help you until...- Debbie...

0:31:10 > 0:31:13- Stop it.- Get off me. There must be something.

0:31:13 > 0:31:15Debbie, come on.

0:31:15 > 0:31:17I said get off!

0:31:24 > 0:31:26Daddy, what are you doing?

0:31:28 > 0:31:29Are you all right?

0:31:29 > 0:31:31Is she all right?

0:31:31 > 0:31:33- I had it covered. - Yeah, it looked it.

0:31:38 > 0:31:40Argh...

0:31:40 > 0:31:42That's burst. Colette?

0:31:42 > 0:31:43I want my mum.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45You go.

0:31:46 > 0:31:52Why the NHS wastes taxpayers' money on deadbeat junkies is beyond me.

0:31:52 > 0:31:54We treat every patient the same.

0:31:54 > 0:31:55You sound like a socialist.

0:31:55 > 0:31:58Could you prep her for theatre for me, please?

0:32:01 > 0:32:04- Are you all right?- Yeah.

0:32:04 > 0:32:06- Sure?- Mmm, I'm fine.

0:32:07 > 0:32:09Dad.

0:32:09 > 0:32:11- Daughter.- The Charity Ball.

0:32:11 > 0:32:14Yeah, that's why I have to tie this stupid thing.

0:32:14 > 0:32:16I'll do it.

0:32:16 > 0:32:17Oh, right.

0:32:19 > 0:32:24- Can you spare two tickets? - Who for?- Me.- You?

0:32:24 > 0:32:25Yes.

0:32:25 > 0:32:28- And who else?- Does it matter?

0:32:28 > 0:32:32No, it's just that I thought you were otherwise engaged.

0:32:32 > 0:32:33Change of plan.

0:32:33 > 0:32:36Oh, right. well, yeah, OK.

0:32:36 > 0:32:39- Leave it with me. - Not as good as Mama's, but...

0:32:39 > 0:32:40I'm sure it is.

0:32:40 > 0:32:43- Thanks.- No, thank you.

0:32:47 > 0:32:48Has, er, Clive Lloyd gone?

0:32:48 > 0:32:53- I don't know.- I think he's in the toilet, actually.- Brilliant(!)

0:32:57 > 0:32:58Mr Lloyd?

0:33:00 > 0:33:02Clive?

0:33:02 > 0:33:03Yes?

0:33:05 > 0:33:10Right, er, sorry to labour the point but, you know, if you don't

0:33:10 > 0:33:13want to stay here, perhaps would you consider a bed in a hospice?

0:33:13 > 0:33:17I'd rather not, if that's all right with you.

0:33:17 > 0:33:20Right, OK, but I could arrange one very quickly, you see. So...

0:33:20 > 0:33:22Really, I'm perfectly all right.

0:33:22 > 0:33:26See, you might find it strikes a balance between a hospital and...

0:33:26 > 0:33:28WOMAN AND CLIVE GIGGLE

0:33:30 > 0:33:31Mr Lloyd?

0:33:33 > 0:33:34LOCK UNBOLTED

0:33:50 > 0:33:53Please tell me this is some sort of misguided joke.

0:33:53 > 0:33:55- No, I can't do that.- Does your father know what you're planning?

0:33:55 > 0:33:59Ah, Zosia, darling. I managed to get your tickets.

0:34:02 > 0:34:05Um, could somebody tell me what's going on?

0:34:07 > 0:34:09'Look, just think about what you're taking on.'

0:34:09 > 0:34:12- I have, long and hard.- You've never done this procedure before.

0:34:12 > 0:34:14That's not true.

0:34:14 > 0:34:17OK, if you're convinced that it has to happen now,

0:34:17 > 0:34:18then send them to Sheffield.

0:34:18 > 0:34:20They can't take her unless it's an emergency.

0:34:20 > 0:34:23- So wait.- Until it is one?

0:34:23 > 0:34:24OK, why now, why this case?

0:34:24 > 0:34:28It's not about "now", I'd have taken this on any time.

0:34:28 > 0:34:30Except Elliot would never have sanctioned this.

0:34:30 > 0:34:33- So you think this is about the new job?- No.

0:34:33 > 0:34:37- That I'm on some kind of ego trip? - No! That's not what I'm saying.

0:34:37 > 0:34:39Nothing could be further from the truth.

0:34:40 > 0:34:42So what is the truth then, Jac?

0:34:44 > 0:34:46I would love to stay and talk this to death,

0:34:46 > 0:34:48but I have a baby to save.

0:34:50 > 0:34:53Dr March acted without consultation.

0:34:53 > 0:34:56Mr Lloyd is now in more pain than he was than when he was admitted

0:34:56 > 0:35:01- and we had a much-needed bed that was out of action for several hours.- Dr March?

0:35:01 > 0:35:03Clive complained of fatigue and drowsiness.

0:35:03 > 0:35:05When I explained it was due to his medication,

0:35:05 > 0:35:08- he consented to a reduction... - No, I think... - You've had your say, Digby.

0:35:08 > 0:35:11Even after a short period on the new meds, he seemed happier.

0:35:11 > 0:35:14- So you thought you'd take him dancing?- He really wants to go.

0:35:14 > 0:35:16What would you rather do -

0:35:16 > 0:35:20sit in bed listening to Shostakovich while you wait to die?

0:35:20 > 0:35:22- He discharged himself, did he? - Against my wishes.

0:35:22 > 0:35:25He's at liberty to go where he chooses.

0:35:25 > 0:35:26Well, I can't argue with that.

0:35:26 > 0:35:30- I can take him tonight?- I can't see how I can stop you.- Thanks.

0:35:34 > 0:35:37You know, I gave you what appeared to be a relatively simple task.

0:35:37 > 0:35:38I know.

0:35:38 > 0:35:42And yet you've contrived to turn it into a three-ringed circus.

0:35:42 > 0:35:45- Er, but...- Well played, Digby.

0:35:54 > 0:35:55Will you be in theatre with us?

0:35:55 > 0:35:57No, it'll be Jac and the specialist.

0:35:59 > 0:36:02- Where've you been? - Walk round the grounds,

0:36:02 > 0:36:04just trying to get my head together.

0:36:04 > 0:36:07- I thought you'd done a runner. - What do you mean?

0:36:07 > 0:36:09Nothing.

0:36:09 > 0:36:11Right.

0:36:11 > 0:36:12- Good luck.- Thanks.

0:36:15 > 0:36:18- So what, you're just going to stand by and let this happen?- What?

0:36:18 > 0:36:22- Jac is doing this for all the wrong reasons.- Maybe she's doing it for the best of reasons.

0:36:22 > 0:36:25She is abusing her authority to try and save an unborn baby

0:36:25 > 0:36:28using a procedure that has never been done here before.

0:36:28 > 0:36:32- OK, she's made a judgment call. - None of this is in the patient's interest.

0:36:32 > 0:36:36- Mr T seems to think so. - No, he's just caving in cos he's petrified of her.

0:36:36 > 0:36:37He wouldn't do that.

0:36:37 > 0:36:40- Have you asked him what he really thinks?- Not in so many words.

0:36:40 > 0:36:42Talk to him. Please, Mo.

0:36:42 > 0:36:44There might still be time to do the right thing here.

0:36:47 > 0:36:48KNOCK ON DOOR

0:36:48 > 0:36:49Yep.

0:36:49 > 0:36:51Hey.

0:36:53 > 0:36:56- What do you make of our new board member?- Ugh.

0:36:56 > 0:36:57Not a fan, then?

0:36:57 > 0:36:59Always looks as if he's trying to work out

0:36:59 > 0:37:01what colour underwear I've got on.

0:37:01 > 0:37:04So, anyway, have you found someone for your mum?

0:37:04 > 0:37:06Oh, I haven't had the energy, to be honest.

0:37:06 > 0:37:09Well, I've got a friend who's a matron at a nursing home.

0:37:09 > 0:37:11And she is happy to sit in.

0:37:12 > 0:37:14Right.

0:37:14 > 0:37:19Well, that's very kind of you, but I'm not sure it's a good idea.

0:37:19 > 0:37:21Oh, come on, you need a night off.

0:37:21 > 0:37:23She's got loads of experience. Everyone's happy.

0:37:25 > 0:37:28Oh, go one then. Thank you.

0:37:32 > 0:37:33'How are you feeling?'

0:37:33 > 0:37:35- Crap.- Well, everything went well.

0:37:35 > 0:37:37We've given you some morphine to take the edge off

0:37:37 > 0:37:40and we've also written you up a methadone prescription, OK?

0:37:40 > 0:37:42Sorry about before.

0:37:42 > 0:37:44- Er, I telephoned your mum.- Right.

0:37:44 > 0:37:47I explained it was absolutely necessary to start you on methadone.

0:37:47 > 0:37:49Is she coming in to see me?

0:37:52 > 0:37:54'Fraid not.

0:37:54 > 0:37:56I knew she wouldn't.

0:37:58 > 0:38:00I always let her down.

0:38:01 > 0:38:03Here.

0:38:07 > 0:38:10SHE WEEPS

0:38:10 > 0:38:12Right, Son - I'm off.

0:38:16 > 0:38:18Enjoyed yourself?

0:38:18 > 0:38:20It's been...enlightening.

0:38:22 > 0:38:24- See you later. - Looking forward to it.

0:38:26 > 0:38:29Ah! Mr di Lucca.

0:38:29 > 0:38:31- Thanks again.- Our pleasure.

0:38:31 > 0:38:33There's a bit of a madhouse down here.

0:38:33 > 0:38:35Well, that's the way we like it.

0:38:35 > 0:38:38- Still, doesn't seem to have done Harry any harm.- No.

0:38:38 > 0:38:42- Not in the short term, anyway. - Mm.

0:38:42 > 0:38:44Suppose you all have to rough it for a while.

0:38:44 > 0:38:45Yeah, it's character building.

0:38:47 > 0:38:49Well, anything you can do to keep him

0:38:49 > 0:38:52moving in the right direction will be much appreciated.

0:38:52 > 0:38:55Yeah, don't worry, I've got his back.

0:38:58 > 0:39:01- KNOCK ON DOOR - Come in.

0:39:01 > 0:39:04Hey.

0:39:04 > 0:39:05Clumsy-itis.

0:39:06 > 0:39:11- You busy?- Prepping for Jac's valvuloplasty.- Right.

0:39:11 > 0:39:15It's a fascinating procedure, you know. Come and have a look.

0:39:15 > 0:39:18The very idea of passing a needle

0:39:18 > 0:39:21through the mother's abdominal wall, then her uterus,

0:39:21 > 0:39:25then on through the baby's chest, and into the left ventricle...

0:39:25 > 0:39:28I mean, that's amazing, right?

0:39:28 > 0:39:30Are you sure it can be done here?

0:39:30 > 0:39:32Yeah, I don't see any reason why not.

0:39:32 > 0:39:34So, you think Jac's right?

0:39:34 > 0:39:37Well, I see nothing wrong in wanting to save the life of an unborn baby.

0:39:37 > 0:39:39No...

0:39:39 > 0:39:41You don't sound too convinced.

0:39:41 > 0:39:43Jonny has some doubts.

0:39:43 > 0:39:44Because it's Jac, right?

0:39:44 > 0:39:47Everything's because of Jac in Jonnyworld.

0:39:47 > 0:39:51Mo, if we could set up a foetal cardiac unit on Darwin,

0:39:51 > 0:39:53just imagine the patients we'd attract.

0:39:53 > 0:39:57- Yeah?- Yeah! Yeah. And it wouldn't all be about Ms Naylor, either.

0:39:57 > 0:40:01WE'D have our own caseload. You and me, the Dynamic Duo.

0:40:01 > 0:40:06- Dyna-Mo, eh!- I don't think I've ever seen you this excited.

0:40:06 > 0:40:10This is worth us both getting very, very excited about.

0:40:14 > 0:40:16KNOCK ON DOOR

0:40:16 > 0:40:17Come in.

0:40:17 > 0:40:19'Are you decent?'

0:40:21 > 0:40:23As I'll ever be.

0:40:37 > 0:40:39You look lovely.

0:40:39 > 0:40:40Not so bad yourself.

0:40:40 > 0:40:43The name is Bond...

0:40:43 > 0:40:44Premium Bond.

0:40:44 > 0:40:45You see, that's my line.

0:40:45 > 0:40:47I thought you'd gone.

0:40:50 > 0:40:55Well, I nipped home, I grabbed my tux and I came straight back.

0:40:56 > 0:40:58Why?

0:40:58 > 0:41:03Cos I intend to arrive at this do with you on my arm.

0:41:04 > 0:41:08You're a persistent so and so, aren't you?

0:41:08 > 0:41:12- Borderline stalker material, me. - You clown.

0:41:22 > 0:41:23Listen...

0:41:26 > 0:41:29I know that we haven't had the most...conventional of starts...

0:41:31 > 0:41:33..but there is something there...

0:41:34 > 0:41:36..I know it.

0:41:37 > 0:41:38I'm not saying there isn't, but...

0:41:38 > 0:41:40Where's the harm in just seeing where it goes?

0:41:43 > 0:41:45And if I say no,

0:41:45 > 0:41:49are you going to force me there by gunpoint?

0:41:51 > 0:41:54Well, this ain't no banana, lady.

0:41:54 > 0:41:55Easy tiger.

0:41:55 > 0:41:57- You spoken to Mr T yet? - He's totally up for it.

0:41:57 > 0:41:59Right.

0:41:59 > 0:42:01Since when was trying to save a child's life a bad thing?

0:42:01 > 0:42:04Mo, I'm just off to see the foetal specialist.

0:42:04 > 0:42:07- OK.- Can you get Georgia into theatre? - Yep.- I take it you'll be joining us.

0:42:07 > 0:42:09- Will I?- Is there a problem with that?

0:42:09 > 0:42:12- I just thought...- If we're going to be rolling this out,

0:42:12 > 0:42:13I need everyone up to speed, as soon as.

0:42:15 > 0:42:17- OK.- You're not really giving off that

0:42:17 > 0:42:21"thanks for including me in my career-defining op" vibe.
