0:00:38 > 0:00:41Hi, Nicole. I am Mr Di Lucca.

0:00:41 > 0:00:43All you need to know is that it's her husband I'm after.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46It's not even his baby.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48Ron, I-I know you're angry and I know how you feel.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50Shut up!

0:00:50 > 0:00:54- Promise me you'd look after William.- Promise.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57Sorcia, you're a fighter. Don't do this.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00Lock us together or I pull his hands apart!

0:01:00 > 0:01:02- GUNFIRE - Oh!

0:01:02 > 0:01:05How about you come to my house for tea

0:01:05 > 0:01:07and I can tell you all about your mummy?

0:01:07 > 0:01:10- I've split up with my husband.- Cara.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13He cheated.

0:01:25 > 0:01:29Ah, have you taken up speed walking now as well as looking after

0:01:29 > 0:01:30a three-year-old?

0:01:30 > 0:01:33William didn't want me to leave him at the creche.

0:01:33 > 0:01:36But we are entering a brave new world, he and I.

0:01:36 > 0:01:38Watch out Gwynnie, here comes Momma Mo!

0:01:38 > 0:01:42Now, I can attest to the nutritional value of the porridge oat,

0:01:42 > 0:01:45but as to its effect on the epidermis...

0:01:45 > 0:01:47MOBILE PHONE RINGS

0:01:47 > 0:01:49Sorry, can you...

0:01:49 > 0:01:51Oh, I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming.

0:01:51 > 0:01:53What's happened?

0:01:53 > 0:01:55Tiger? What tiger?

0:01:55 > 0:01:57Ah, yes, THAT tiger, yes.

0:01:57 > 0:02:01All right, yeah, right. Could you tell him I'll be there in five?

0:02:01 > 0:02:04- Oh, it's this way. - Ms Effanga?- Hmm.

0:02:04 > 0:02:07Oh, thank you. I was just... Yeah.

0:02:10 > 0:02:14- I saw an incredible docco on the net last night.- Oh, yeah?

0:02:14 > 0:02:16They reckon we're on the brink of the sixth mass extinction

0:02:16 > 0:02:18- in the history of the planet... - Lovely.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20- ..and it's all the fault of Homo sapiens.- Huh?

0:02:20 > 0:02:24Sapiens - US, the human race.

0:02:24 > 0:02:27Yeah, sounds about right.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30- Catch anything yourself? - The Real Housewives Of New Jersey.

0:02:35 > 0:02:38Isn't that our diaphragmatic hernia from the other week?

0:02:38 > 0:02:39Yeah.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42- Hello again.- Nicole's just been sent through from the ED.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44Problem with her wound from her op's giving her gyp.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47- Well, we'll get it looked at. - Yeah, uh, Cara.

0:02:47 > 0:02:48Yep.

0:02:48 > 0:02:51Hiya.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53- I thought you were on your way to maternity...- Sorry?

0:02:53 > 0:02:56- ..when I saw you. - When you saw us?

0:02:56 > 0:02:57Yeah, just now.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59Could you get Nicole settled in, please?

0:02:59 > 0:03:02I've actually got a bit, erm... Fletch, could you?

0:03:02 > 0:03:05Sorry, I'm on my way to an MDT meeting so, er, no.

0:03:05 > 0:03:08- Five and seven are free.- Right.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11- Thanks for sorting my oppo' out... - Your oppo'?

0:03:11 > 0:03:14Yeah, Jed. He was in with a bad arm.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16No worries. How's he doing?

0:03:16 > 0:03:18- He's good, isn't he, Sean?- Yeah.

0:03:18 > 0:03:19PAGER BEEPS

0:03:19 > 0:03:22- Sorry, you'll have to excuse me. - She's in pain.- I can sort that out.

0:03:22 > 0:03:25Thank God I've got you to look after me.

0:03:25 > 0:03:28Could you do some bloods and arrange an ultrasound?

0:03:28 > 0:03:30And I'll be right back.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37- Morning.- Morning.

0:03:38 > 0:03:42So, what does the day hold for Mr Self?

0:03:42 > 0:03:44Oh, just paperwork.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46I thought you had surgery lined up?

0:03:46 > 0:03:49I'm waiting on some test results, so I've postponed.

0:03:49 > 0:03:51- Shame.- Yes, can't be helped.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53I was hoping to watch you in action.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55Why?

0:03:55 > 0:03:56No particular reason.

0:03:56 > 0:04:00There's always a reason where you're concerned.

0:04:00 > 0:04:03I thought spend a few hours with the troops would be good.

0:04:03 > 0:04:05Maybe next time.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09Yeah, there is a slight infection but it's nothing to worry about.

0:04:09 > 0:04:10It can't affect the baby?

0:04:10 > 0:04:13- No, and you did the right thing coming in.- Miracles.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16- I'm not with you. - Me doing the right thing.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18Ah.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20Could you clean and redress and let's get her on some antibiotics?

0:04:20 > 0:04:23- Gentamicin.- OK.

0:04:25 > 0:04:28I could be dying, he'd still be on that mobile.

0:04:28 > 0:04:30Erm, just need to concentrate on this.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32Sorry.

0:04:35 > 0:04:37- Can you see him?- Who?

0:04:37 > 0:04:39The baby, through the wound?

0:04:41 > 0:04:43N-No.

0:04:43 > 0:04:45I was only joking.

0:04:45 > 0:04:49- That's a mad thing to say. - That's me, mad as a box of frogs.

0:04:54 > 0:04:58Have you decided what you're going to do?

0:05:00 > 0:05:03We're going to try and disappear...

0:05:03 > 0:05:05once the baby's born.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09Jed says we should wait.

0:05:09 > 0:05:12Right.

0:05:12 > 0:05:16- What's that? - What's what?- I'm soaking!

0:05:17 > 0:05:20I think your waters have broken.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22Nice shirt.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25- So what've you got for me, boss man? - OK, please don't call me boss man.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27Anything juicy on the books?

0:05:27 > 0:05:32Right, Peter Earl, 38, broken arm. He's in bed four.

0:05:32 > 0:05:35Hang on, is that it? Broken arm?

0:05:35 > 0:05:38- It needs pinning. - That's something I suppose.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41You could assist the orthopod, if you like.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43Really? I thought I was just here to observe for now.

0:05:43 > 0:05:45No, get your hands dirty, I think.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47- Nice one, boss man.- Ah...

0:05:47 > 0:05:49Sorry.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52Mr Earl.

0:05:52 > 0:05:53Yes.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56- I'm Mr Levy and this is Mr Law.- Hi.

0:05:56 > 0:05:59The two horsemen of the apocalypse.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01Sorry?

0:06:01 > 0:06:04- How did you break the arm? - I fell out of bed...

0:06:04 > 0:06:06- Oh, bad luck. - ..during a nightmare...

0:06:06 > 0:06:09- Ouch! - ..that foretold my own death.

0:06:10 > 0:06:14- Right, and you woke up just before you...- No, I don't die in the dream.

0:06:15 > 0:06:19I'm given the date I'm going to die.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21Right, should we get back to your arm?

0:06:21 > 0:06:24- And it's a recurring dream, is it? - Exactly.- Now it looks...

0:06:24 > 0:06:26- A long way off?- ..from the scan like you might need...

0:06:26 > 0:06:28It's today, actually.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30- ..surgery.- What?

0:06:30 > 0:06:33Today is the day I die.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43You're kidding? How long?

0:06:43 > 0:06:46What kind of an answer is that?

0:06:47 > 0:06:51Just...page me if anything becomes free.

0:06:53 > 0:06:54This can't be happening now.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56Well, it is, babe, so you're going to have to go with it.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58Maternity's full, but they're working on it.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00- What?- No beds. - No beds? Until when?

0:07:00 > 0:07:02- They couldn't say. - Right, so what are we going to do?

0:07:02 > 0:07:05Well, they're sending down the midwife to check on you.

0:07:05 > 0:07:06And we've got no other room,

0:07:06 > 0:07:08so you're just going to have to stay here.

0:07:08 > 0:07:09Right, and that's all you can do?

0:07:09 > 0:07:12I can call round the other units, see if they can transfer her?

0:07:12 > 0:07:15- She's already in labour. - And in hospital. Look, happy days.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17I'll go and get Raf.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22Why do I get the bloke with the death wish to deal with?

0:07:22 > 0:07:24You could always go back to anaesthesia.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26Ah, Mr Earl. How you doing?

0:07:26 > 0:07:30I'm just sending the solicitor some last-minute changes to my will.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32Oh, well, I'll have the Ming vases, if that's OK.

0:07:32 > 0:07:35It's not a joke.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38- Sorry.- I had it all planned.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41Full English, sort my admin and wait.

0:07:42 > 0:07:46- For?- Didn't know.

0:07:46 > 0:07:47But then, I had my fall

0:07:47 > 0:07:49and, obviously, a chain of events is under way.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52- Uh, do you need a witness?- What?

0:07:52 > 0:07:55For the will.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58- Are you mocking me?- No.

0:07:58 > 0:08:01I have to say, you seem very calm about the prospect of death.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04Well, I've gone through all the stages of grieving my passing.

0:08:04 > 0:08:07I've raged, I've denied.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09Now I've reached acceptance.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12- What if we manage to keep you alive? - That won't be happening.

0:08:12 > 0:08:13HE WINCES IN PAIN

0:08:13 > 0:08:15Mr Earl, are you all right?

0:08:15 > 0:08:18- Ah, my back. - Is that from the fall?- No.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20ED ruled out a spinal fracture.

0:08:20 > 0:08:23- And my leg.- OK, on a scale of one to ten, how bad is this?

0:08:23 > 0:08:25Sounds like an 11.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28- Right, well, we'll up your pain relief, Peter, OK?- Thank you.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30I'll get a colleague to take a look at you.

0:08:32 > 0:08:33So it begins.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36- SHE EXHALES DEEPLY - That's another one.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38- Any news from maternity?- No change.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41- What about the other hospitals? - Still waiting on a call.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43These contractions are getting worse.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45OK, I want you to just focus on your breathing.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48- This is ridiculous. - Why don't you go and get a coffee?

0:08:48 > 0:08:50We could be here a while.

0:08:51 > 0:08:54- Will you be all right?- Fine.

0:08:54 > 0:08:57I love you.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06Pass us my mobile.

0:09:07 > 0:09:10Thanks.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12'Hi, this is Jed. Leave me a message.'

0:09:12 > 0:09:15Hello, Jed, I'm in Holby AAU.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17The baby's coming early.

0:09:19 > 0:09:22I need you.

0:09:29 > 0:09:32You don't think bad of me, do you?

0:09:32 > 0:09:34Why would I?

0:09:36 > 0:09:40So, Peter Earl's notes, definitely no spinal fracture?

0:09:40 > 0:09:43- Nada.- Was it psychosomatic?

0:09:43 > 0:09:45It seemed like real pain to me.

0:09:45 > 0:09:48Not so straightforward after all.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51- Right, let's get a neuro consult. - Neuro? Do you reckon?

0:10:03 > 0:10:05Texting your bloke?

0:10:05 > 0:10:07No.

0:10:07 > 0:10:09- Things didn't work out with my mate? - What?

0:10:09 > 0:10:11Well, last time I saw you,

0:10:11 > 0:10:13- you both looked like you were enjoying each other's company.- Yeah.

0:10:13 > 0:10:16Then he said you stood him up.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19- Had a better offer.- I got the impression he liked you.

0:10:19 > 0:10:23- Yeah, I thought I liked him too.- But?

0:10:23 > 0:10:26I dunno, I er...

0:10:26 > 0:10:28I think something just put me off.

0:10:28 > 0:10:32- Like to keep them guessing, do you? - Not really.

0:10:32 > 0:10:35Well, if you change your mind, I'd vouch for him.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39Not many out there better than our Jed.

0:10:41 > 0:10:42Yeah.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51- Ah, morning team!- Morning.- Hi.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54Uh, is there something on your...

0:10:54 > 0:10:56Ah, yeah, forgot about that.

0:10:56 > 0:10:59- William, he doesn't like porridge. - Who's got him now?

0:10:59 > 0:11:00- He's in the creche. - That's great.- Yeah.

0:11:00 > 0:11:03- Give him a chance to play with some other kids.- Hopefully.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05Better crack on.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10Thank you.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17- Right, what's keeping this obstetrician?- Good news.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19- What? - We found a unit with a free bed.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21- It's too late for that.- Why?

0:11:21 > 0:11:23- She's fully dilated.- But...

0:11:23 > 0:11:26Could you chase the obstetrician and page a neonatologist?

0:11:26 > 0:11:28Now, please.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35- Maybe it'll be you...- Sorry?

0:11:35 > 0:11:37..that applies the coup de grace.

0:11:37 > 0:11:38Oh, yes.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41I've been informed about your visions of impending doom by Mr Law.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44Or I might be discharged and hit by a bus on the way home.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47Yeah, well, not until we suss out what's causing your back pain.

0:11:47 > 0:11:51If it does happen on your watch, please, don't take it personally.

0:11:51 > 0:11:53Oh, don't worry, I won't.

0:11:53 > 0:11:55Can't say the same for the bus driver.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57- In a way, it's a comfort.- What?

0:11:57 > 0:12:01How many times a day do we contemplate our mortality?

0:12:01 > 0:12:04Speak for yourself.

0:12:04 > 0:12:07Wouldn't you want to know when the moment is at hand?

0:12:09 > 0:12:12Tell me, what are those scars on your hand?

0:12:12 > 0:12:13Burns.

0:12:13 > 0:12:17I run a hog roast business. Occupational hazard.

0:12:17 > 0:12:18I would eat the profits.

0:12:18 > 0:12:23OK, let's book a brain and full spine MRI. Mr Earl.

0:12:27 > 0:12:28What do you reckon?

0:12:28 > 0:12:32Reflexes are brisk, planters up-standing,

0:12:32 > 0:12:35so definitely signs of upper motor neurone interference.

0:12:35 > 0:12:37Right, I'll call radiology.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40- Hey, are you OK?- Why?

0:12:40 > 0:12:42I don't know, you just seem a bit...

0:12:42 > 0:12:44- What?- ..off.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46Well, I'm not.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53Jed.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Don't do that.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01I don't want you in there...

0:13:01 > 0:13:04- Eh?- ..with them. - Cara, listen...

0:13:04 > 0:13:07I can't stand there and watch her have your baby

0:13:07 > 0:13:09- while you're in the room. - I have no choice.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11- Yes, you do. You could leave. - I need to be there.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13- She asked for me.- I know.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15I need to make sure she says nothing to Brady.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18Right, so you're just here to cover your own backside?

0:13:18 > 0:13:22- For her own sake. - Not just for the case?- No.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24What about the baby?

0:13:24 > 0:13:27- I can't speak to you about that. - What'll you say to Brady?

0:13:27 > 0:13:30- I don't know.- He's going to want to know why you've just turned up here

0:13:30 > 0:13:33- out of the blue. - Just let me deal with this.

0:13:36 > 0:13:39You understand what you're asking me to do?

0:13:40 > 0:13:43I need to see this through, Cara.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45Let go.

0:14:01 > 0:14:04- Hello, Frank. - All right, love?

0:14:04 > 0:14:06- So, what are you in for? - Oh, search me.

0:14:06 > 0:14:09Frank has chest pains and difficulty breathing.

0:14:09 > 0:14:11Ever since I first clapped eyes on her.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14When did you first notice your symptoms?

0:14:14 > 0:14:17Oh, about two days ago at the nursing home.

0:14:17 > 0:14:20They got the doctor out to me. This was all his idea.

0:14:20 > 0:14:23OK, let's take a little listen to your chest.

0:14:23 > 0:14:25Dr March, do the honours, please.

0:14:27 > 0:14:31I don't suppose you could get this blasted thing working, could you?

0:14:31 > 0:14:33I can't get a signal.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35Let's get you sorted first.

0:14:35 > 0:14:40If my heart suddenly starts pounding, it's her fault.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Breathe in. And out.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47- How's it sounding? - There's a bit of a crackle.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50And what about the snap and pop?

0:14:50 > 0:14:53- We'll need to do a sputum test. - What's that when it's at home?

0:14:53 > 0:14:57- You're going to have to cough up some phlegm for us.- In front of you?

0:14:57 > 0:15:01I think I'll just leave you in Dr March's capable hands.

0:15:01 > 0:15:04What if it shatters all her illusions, eh?

0:15:04 > 0:15:06THEY LAUGH

0:15:08 > 0:15:10Where is she?

0:15:12 > 0:15:16- Hey, Doc. - Oh, hello. How's your arm?

0:15:16 > 0:15:17- Yeah, sound.- Well, you're lucky.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20A compound fracture with that type of arterial interruption

0:15:20 > 0:15:22- can be life-changing. - Nicole Brady?

0:15:22 > 0:15:23SHOUTS OF LABOUR PAIN

0:15:23 > 0:15:26Bay five.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38Sean?

0:15:40 > 0:15:43All right, mate?

0:15:43 > 0:15:47- Don't really think you need visitors right now, huh?- It's OK.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49- What are you doing here? - Come to get this taken off.

0:15:49 > 0:15:52- Already?- Yeah, outpatients.

0:15:52 > 0:15:53That was quick.

0:15:53 > 0:15:56Bumped into this nurse. She told me where you were.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58- Didn't you?- Yeah.

0:15:58 > 0:16:02- How you doing? - I'm good, just brilliant(!)

0:16:02 > 0:16:04- There's no room in maternity. - Is someone having a baby?

0:16:04 > 0:16:06Yeah, I think it might be on the way.

0:16:06 > 0:16:08And I really think she could use some space.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11Couple of things I need to talk to you about anyway, bud.

0:16:11 > 0:16:14- You'll be all right for a minute, babe?- Yeah, she's fine.

0:16:28 > 0:16:32Doctor, Doctor, how do I go about speaking to a priest?

0:16:32 > 0:16:33I'm sorry?

0:16:33 > 0:16:36I'm Catholic by birth. Is there a Catholic priest available here?

0:16:36 > 0:16:38Uh, we have a chaplain.

0:16:38 > 0:16:40Can he administer the Last Rites?

0:16:40 > 0:16:44Mr Earl, I understand that you've been having troubling dreams

0:16:44 > 0:16:47and it may seem ominous to find yourself on a hospital ward...

0:16:47 > 0:16:50- Please don't patronise me. - I'm not patronising you.

0:16:50 > 0:16:53I know this is real.

0:16:53 > 0:16:55- Would you like to talk to somebody about it?- Yes.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58A priest.

0:16:58 > 0:17:00You'll have to take that up with the nursing staff.

0:17:02 > 0:17:06Excuse me, everyone. Whose bag is this?

0:17:07 > 0:17:09Well, it must belong to somebody?

0:17:09 > 0:17:12Uh, it's mine.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14- Oh, it's yours, is it, nurse? - Yes, it's my gym stuff.

0:17:14 > 0:17:17Why have you left it on the ward?

0:17:17 > 0:17:19- I forgot.- Clearly.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23Get rid of it.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27Just try and breathe through it. That's it.

0:17:27 > 0:17:30It'll be all right, won't it, coming this early?

0:17:30 > 0:17:32The midwife will be back soon and all the consultants.

0:17:32 > 0:17:35- I don't think I can wait! - They won't be long.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38- I think it's coming now. - I'll get Mr Di Lucca.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40- Cara...- Yes?

0:17:43 > 0:17:45..what am I going to do?

0:17:50 > 0:17:53- Mind if I take over?- Of course.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57I always fancied having a chauffeur.

0:17:57 > 0:18:00- At your service.- Any news?

0:18:00 > 0:18:03Your ECG showed nothing to worry about.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06I meant on Dr March.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08Is she fantasising about me or what?

0:18:08 > 0:18:11We've got the results of your sputum test too.

0:18:11 > 0:18:15- Oh, lovely. - There's no sign of pneumonia...

0:18:15 > 0:18:17You can tell from a bit of spit?

0:18:17 > 0:18:21..but we do need to know what's going on in your chest.

0:18:21 > 0:18:23It's just a cough.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26So, we'll be sending you for a chest X-ray.

0:18:26 > 0:18:29Will your oppo be along for the ride?

0:18:29 > 0:18:32Afraid you'll just have to make do with a nurse.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38She doesn't half remind me of my Mary.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40Is that your wife?

0:18:40 > 0:18:44- Film star looks she had.- Oooh!

0:18:45 > 0:18:47I don't half miss that face.

0:18:49 > 0:18:51When did she pass?

0:18:51 > 0:18:53Oh, knocking ten years now.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55I'm sorry.

0:18:57 > 0:19:01- I don't see a ring on your finger. - Ah, tragic spinster, me.

0:19:01 > 0:19:05Oh, you're young, gifted...

0:19:05 > 0:19:07and gorgeous!

0:19:07 > 0:19:10- You're too kind. - I bet they're queuing up.

0:19:10 > 0:19:13Fellas with film star looks? I don't think so.

0:19:14 > 0:19:18I still can't get the internet on that flaming thing.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21- I'll get someone to come have a look for you.- You know who?

0:19:23 > 0:19:27LOUD YELLS

0:19:29 > 0:19:31It's a breech.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33You're doing really well, Nicole.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35- Baby is coming out bottom first, Nicole.- What?!

0:19:35 > 0:19:38- Where the hell's the specialist? - Just keep calm.

0:19:38 > 0:19:40- Easy for you to say, mate. - I'm talking to your wife, Mr Brady.

0:19:40 > 0:19:43It's going to be all right.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48- Oh, at last. - They're like buses, this lot.

0:19:54 > 0:19:58- Ah, Frank Thorpe. I need an X-ray. Swapsies?- What's in it for me?

0:19:58 > 0:20:01Oliver Valentine. Nothing if not a beacon of selflessness.

0:20:01 > 0:20:06I can be selfless. Actually, I was just...thinking about Mo.

0:20:07 > 0:20:09Ah, have you spoken to her about Sorcia?

0:20:09 > 0:20:13- It's not all about you. - About Sorcia?

0:20:13 > 0:20:15I think it's best that we don't mention it.

0:20:15 > 0:20:18She's got enough on her plate with William.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20Actually, why don't we give her a break tonight?

0:20:20 > 0:20:22You take her for a drink at Albie's.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25I'll hang with my main man, Willsy?

0:20:25 > 0:20:30Right. I think Mo is more likely to agree if I look after William.

0:20:30 > 0:20:33OK, well, whoever does has got to pick their moment.

0:20:33 > 0:20:36She's a waver, not a drowner so...

0:20:37 > 0:20:39..may the best man win.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46So, how long have you been having these dreams?

0:20:46 > 0:20:48A few months now.

0:20:48 > 0:20:52- Must be pretty traumatic. - It was at first.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54So, what does your wife think about it all, then?

0:20:54 > 0:20:58- I'm not married.- Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you said that you...

0:20:58 > 0:21:01No, I have a wife in my dreams, but...

0:21:01 > 0:21:03Oh, I see.

0:21:05 > 0:21:06(I think.)

0:21:08 > 0:21:10Right, your brain MRI is clear,

0:21:10 > 0:21:13but we have found a cyst compressing your spinal cord.

0:21:13 > 0:21:15That's it then.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18Far from it. I can perform a procedure to remove the cyst.

0:21:18 > 0:21:20You're really not listening to me, are you?

0:21:20 > 0:21:23- No, you're not listening to me. - I think what Mr Self means...

0:21:23 > 0:21:25I understand exactly what he means.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27Well, despite that gloomy prognosis,

0:21:27 > 0:21:30I'd still like to get you into theatre as soon as possible.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35- Fine.- Thank you.

0:21:35 > 0:21:38Oh, erm, hog roast, did you say?

0:21:38 > 0:21:42- That's right, yeah. - I take it you're not a vegetarian?

0:21:42 > 0:21:44I despise vegetarianism.

0:21:44 > 0:21:48- Do you eat much of your own product? - Of course.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50My pork's won awards.

0:21:50 > 0:21:54Any chance of it ever being undercooked?

0:21:54 > 0:21:57That is an affront to my professionalism.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00We'll see you in a bit, OK, Peter?

0:22:02 > 0:22:04Prep him for theatre.

0:22:04 > 0:22:07- So, what's the angle with the pork? - Still working on it.

0:22:09 > 0:22:13LABOUR SCREAMS

0:22:13 > 0:22:15Will you just take this cast off for me?

0:22:15 > 0:22:17What?

0:22:17 > 0:22:21- I told him it's coming off, haven't I?- And?

0:22:21 > 0:22:24- I can hardly do it myself, Cara. - Unbelievable.

0:22:24 > 0:22:26It needs to look like a proper job.

0:22:26 > 0:22:29That's it, babe. Come on, one last push.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32You have to push hard. The legs are out but the head is stuck.

0:22:34 > 0:22:36Should be you in there.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39LABOUR SCREAMS

0:22:39 > 0:22:41- Yes!- Well done.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46Congratulations.

0:22:46 > 0:22:48What's the matter?

0:22:48 > 0:22:50Tell me what's the matter.

0:22:50 > 0:22:53- Let's go. Ready? - What is going on?!

0:22:58 > 0:23:01You'll be discharged by the end of the day.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11The elixir of life.

0:23:11 > 0:23:15Indeed, yeah. I've pulled forward the X-ray for Mr Thorpe.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17Oh, you beauty.

0:23:17 > 0:23:20It's funny, isn't it, how some people don't have anyone in the world?

0:23:20 > 0:23:23Yes, and lucky how others do, eh?

0:23:23 > 0:23:26- How are you coping, Mo?- Huh?

0:23:26 > 0:23:28Well, it's a big old responsibility.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30Oh, you know me. Mo "Cope" Effanga.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33Yes, I heard that.

0:23:33 > 0:23:38Just thinking that you, er, could use some, er, reprieve.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42- Not sure that's on the cards. - Oh, but it could be.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45That's where I come to the rescue.

0:23:45 > 0:23:48- Yeah, that's... - Mmmm, imagine a nice cold pint!

0:23:50 > 0:23:52Sorry.

0:23:52 > 0:23:57The sweet scent of fresh OJ cascading over crisp cubes of ice.

0:23:57 > 0:24:01The warm buzz of adult company.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04That feeling, that glow you get from truly winding down.

0:24:04 > 0:24:08- Actually, all I really want... - I'll babysit William for an hour.

0:24:08 > 0:24:12You take a time out, go to Albie's, have a drink...with Zosia.

0:24:14 > 0:24:17Look, I appreciate your concern but I can look after a three-year-old

0:24:17 > 0:24:19and work at the same time.

0:24:19 > 0:24:22- Can I have my tea? - Oh, right.- Thanks.

0:24:28 > 0:24:33So, Peter Earl, a parasitic infection?

0:24:33 > 0:24:35Neurocystericosis is pretty rare in the spine,

0:24:35 > 0:24:38but once I'd made the connection with pork...

0:24:38 > 0:24:40- That's a hell of a diagnosis. - Thanks.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43- I don't think our friend's going to be overly impressed.- Hmm.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45Right, I'll need someone to assist.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48- I'll do it.- Excellent.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56Any news?

0:24:58 > 0:25:00Not yet.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11When will I be able to see him?

0:25:11 > 0:25:13Soon, I'm sure.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15I can't take this.

0:25:17 > 0:25:20- He's a fighter, that wee boy of yours.- He's OK?

0:25:20 > 0:25:23He's just out here. Why don't you help me bring him in?

0:25:24 > 0:25:27Oh...I thought he was going to die!

0:25:27 > 0:25:30I'm really happy for you.

0:25:31 > 0:25:33Come here.

0:25:35 > 0:25:37Here he is.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40Oh, my God!

0:25:40 > 0:25:41Nice and gentle.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45Make sure you support his neck, OK?

0:25:50 > 0:25:54- I think you'd better hand him over, Dad.- Oh, yeah, yeah.

0:26:02 > 0:26:04Hello, sweetie.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09- Jed, come on. - I'll leave you to it.

0:26:12 > 0:26:17- Hey, so he's all right, then? - He's fighting fit.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20- And handsome with it. - Just like his dad.

0:26:22 > 0:26:25Take a picture.

0:26:30 > 0:26:34- So, what are you going to call him, then?- Tom, after my dad.

0:26:34 > 0:26:37You ready?

0:26:37 > 0:26:40- Nice.- Right, you get in.

0:26:40 > 0:26:43- No, no, it's all right. - Do the honours?

0:26:43 > 0:26:46Oh, you don't want me taking it.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49- My photos always turn out rubbish. - Don't be daft, here you are.

0:26:54 > 0:26:57Happy families, eh?

0:26:59 > 0:27:03- Say cheese.- Cheese.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09How we doing, Frank?

0:27:09 > 0:27:11I know you can get it all on the internet these days,

0:27:11 > 0:27:14but you cannae beat a real paper.

0:27:15 > 0:27:19- All right, I've got your X-ray results.- And?

0:27:19 > 0:27:21You have what we call a pleural effusion on the left lung.

0:27:24 > 0:27:27We had one of them but the wheel fell off.

0:27:27 > 0:27:31It's fluid on the lung, basically.

0:27:31 > 0:27:33- Serious, is it? - We need to do more tests before...

0:27:33 > 0:27:37- You must know something? - We don't like to speculate.

0:27:37 > 0:27:39You wouldn't tell me porkies, would you?

0:27:39 > 0:27:42Just sit tight. I've got a quick op to do, then I'll get you sorted.

0:27:49 > 0:27:54Excuse me, mate, couldn't borrow your computer for a minute, could I?

0:27:57 > 0:28:00- Just going to do a ring round of the family.- OK.

0:28:00 > 0:28:02- You'll be all right for ten minutes? - Yeah, fine.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11Do you want a hold?

0:28:12 > 0:28:15It's your son.

0:28:22 > 0:28:24Isn't he perfect?

0:28:26 > 0:28:28Yeah.

0:28:28 > 0:28:31- He'll be ready for another feed soon.- I'll leave you to it.

0:28:31 > 0:28:34You can stay, Jed.

0:28:34 > 0:28:36What about Sean?

0:28:36 > 0:28:39He'll be ages if he's on to his mother.

0:28:42 > 0:28:44I love you.

0:28:50 > 0:28:52Jed?

0:28:53 > 0:28:56You too.

0:29:08 > 0:29:11Hog roast.

0:29:13 > 0:29:15You're going to scrub your fingerprints off.

0:29:15 > 0:29:17Hmm?

0:29:20 > 0:29:22Oh, right.

0:29:22 > 0:29:24No, please, wait, no!

0:29:26 > 0:29:28How we doing?

0:29:28 > 0:29:30- I don't want to die! - You're not going to die.

0:29:30 > 0:29:33- This is it.- You have a cyst pressing on your spinal cord.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36- It could paralyse you. - It's going to kill me.

0:29:36 > 0:29:39I have never in my entire career lost anyone in spinal surgery.

0:29:39 > 0:29:41I don't care.

0:29:42 > 0:29:44Right, let's cancel.

0:29:44 > 0:29:46- What?- Cancel.

0:29:46 > 0:29:48Are you serious?

0:29:48 > 0:29:50- Take him back to the ward. - Uh, Mr Self?- Wait!

0:29:52 > 0:29:54What if I'm wrong?

0:29:54 > 0:29:56What if I die because I turn the operation down...

0:29:56 > 0:29:59- There's a better chance of that... - ..like some sort of double bluff?

0:29:59 > 0:30:01Who knows?

0:30:06 > 0:30:07OK, I'll do it.

0:30:07 > 0:30:09You'll do it?

0:30:11 > 0:30:14- If I don't, I'll spend my last hours in agony anyway.- Good point.

0:30:16 > 0:30:19Fine. Shall we?

0:30:20 > 0:30:23- Is this all just a game to you?- No.

0:30:23 > 0:30:25How can you stand there and tell her that you love her?

0:30:25 > 0:30:27- Think I like doing this? - I don't know.

0:30:27 > 0:30:28It's part of the job, Cara.

0:30:28 > 0:30:31- Is that like getting her pregnant was part of the job?- Shh, keep it down!

0:30:31 > 0:30:34When she said it to you, she meant it.

0:30:34 > 0:30:36- She's looking for an escape route. - No.- She thinks I'm it.

0:30:36 > 0:30:39Do you know what the worst part of this whole nightmare is?

0:30:39 > 0:30:40Please, tell me.

0:30:40 > 0:30:43It makes me doubt every word that has ever come out of your mouth.

0:30:43 > 0:30:47Look, the man you met in there is not the same man as your husband.

0:30:47 > 0:30:50- Yes, he is. He's exactly the same. - No, he's not. He's Jed.

0:30:50 > 0:30:53- Jed the enforcer, Jed the collector, Jed the driver.- Oh, stop!

0:30:53 > 0:30:56- He'll be gone soon...- Please. - ..like he never existed.

0:30:56 > 0:30:59You have a son. He exists.

0:30:59 > 0:31:02Jed the parent exists

0:31:02 > 0:31:04and nothing can ever change that.

0:31:05 > 0:31:08- All right, bud?- Hey.

0:31:08 > 0:31:11In the mood for celebrating?

0:31:11 > 0:31:12Always.

0:31:16 > 0:31:20- We haven't even got a diagnosis yet.- Yes, you have.

0:31:20 > 0:31:24It's either heart failure, liver disease or...

0:31:24 > 0:31:26Where are you getting this from, Frank?

0:31:26 > 0:31:29- I looked it up on the internet. - Oh, Frank!

0:31:29 > 0:31:33You hear of people coming to the hospital feeling a bit off

0:31:33 > 0:31:35and they never get out of the place.

0:31:35 > 0:31:37Look, you will be the first to hear

0:31:37 > 0:31:39as soon as we've got some more answers.

0:31:39 > 0:31:42Pulmonary embolism, that's another one.

0:31:42 > 0:31:45I'm going to be performing a thoracentesis to drain away

0:31:45 > 0:31:47the excess fluid and then, we'll know more.

0:31:47 > 0:31:49- Mo?- Yes.- Creche on line one.

0:31:51 > 0:31:53Sorry, I have to take this.

0:31:57 > 0:31:59Hello.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02What's he done?

0:32:02 > 0:32:03Right.

0:32:03 > 0:32:06OK, can you put him on, please?

0:32:07 > 0:32:09Hey, William, it's Momo.

0:32:11 > 0:32:14Yeah, I'm sorry, sweetheart.

0:32:14 > 0:32:17Mummy's gone to live with the angels, hasn't she?

0:32:18 > 0:32:21Oh, she can't come back, darling.

0:32:24 > 0:32:28I can make you sausage and mash.

0:32:28 > 0:32:30It's not as good as your mum's? How dare you!

0:32:30 > 0:32:32SHE LAUGHS

0:32:32 > 0:32:35I know, it's sad.

0:32:35 > 0:32:38I know, I'm sad too.

0:32:38 > 0:32:41But, hey... Yeah, course you can have onion gravy.

0:32:43 > 0:32:44Listen, I tell you what,

0:32:44 > 0:32:48as soon as I finish work, I'm going to come and pick you up, OK?

0:32:48 > 0:32:50All right. Bye-bye.

0:32:57 > 0:33:00I swear, if I have to eat one more sausage...

0:33:03 > 0:33:05You sure you don't want one?

0:33:07 > 0:33:10Sorry to break-up the party.

0:33:10 > 0:33:13There's no drinking on the ward.

0:33:13 > 0:33:16You'll let us off, won't you? Only be a second.

0:33:18 > 0:33:21- Cheers.- Cheers.

0:33:21 > 0:33:23I'll change that dressing in a minute.

0:33:23 > 0:33:25- I'd like to propose a toast... - Thanks.

0:33:25 > 0:33:27..to little Tom

0:33:27 > 0:33:30and dads everywhere.

0:33:31 > 0:33:33- Dads.- Dads.

0:33:33 > 0:33:35Cheers.

0:33:38 > 0:33:42You can't really argue with his logic for going ahead in the end...

0:33:44 > 0:33:47..and it's not like he's going to be around to say, "I told you so,"

0:33:47 > 0:33:49if he's was right.

0:33:49 > 0:33:51What is it Spike Milligan has on his gravestone?

0:33:51 > 0:33:53Mr Levy...

0:33:53 > 0:33:57I'd appreciate it if you'd let me concentrate on the job at hand.

0:33:57 > 0:33:59Course. Sorry.

0:34:11 > 0:34:13You want some help, babe?

0:34:13 > 0:34:15I'm only going for a pee.

0:34:15 > 0:34:17All right.

0:34:22 > 0:34:24You think he's doing well?

0:34:24 > 0:34:25Yeah.

0:34:25 > 0:34:28Got great things planned for this boy.

0:34:28 > 0:34:30Really?

0:34:32 > 0:34:34Look at his little fingers.

0:34:34 > 0:34:36Amazing, isn't it?

0:34:36 > 0:34:38He's so tiny.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40He's not a bad size, actually.

0:34:40 > 0:34:42Do you reckon?

0:34:42 > 0:34:45I mean, I'm no expert but for six weeks' premature...

0:34:45 > 0:34:47- Sorry?- What?

0:34:47 > 0:34:50You said six weeks.

0:34:50 > 0:34:53- Did I?- Definitely.

0:34:53 > 0:34:55- My mistake.- Right.

0:34:55 > 0:34:58- He's two weeks early, isn't he? - Yeah.

0:35:01 > 0:35:04- One of those days.- Absolutely.

0:35:21 > 0:35:23- You did what?- It just came out.

0:35:23 > 0:35:26- What is wrong with you?- I'm caught in the middle of that many lies...

0:35:26 > 0:35:28You did it deliberately?

0:35:28 > 0:35:31- Why on earth...- OK, OK.

0:35:31 > 0:35:33- How did he react? - He picked me up on it straight away.

0:35:33 > 0:35:36- And what did you do? - Well, I told him I made a mistake.

0:35:36 > 0:35:39- Was he suspicious? - It was hard to tell.

0:35:39 > 0:35:43- So he bought the excuse, right?- I think so.

0:35:43 > 0:35:45HE WINCES

0:35:46 > 0:35:49He didn't make a big deal of it.

0:35:50 > 0:35:54OK, so we just play everything normal. All right?

0:35:54 > 0:35:56Normal?

0:35:57 > 0:35:59I don't even know what that is any more.

0:36:00 > 0:36:05Isn't it fascinating, the tricks the mind plays on us?

0:36:05 > 0:36:07Do you think the cyst has anything to do with his visions?

0:36:07 > 0:36:11Could I have some quiet, please?

0:36:11 > 0:36:13Sorry.

0:36:14 > 0:36:17- INTERCOM:- 'Trying your hand at neurosurgery, Mr Levy?'

0:36:17 > 0:36:20Mr Self's registrar has been assigned to another patient.

0:36:20 > 0:36:23- 'Oh, I see.' - Gentlemen, if you don't mind.

0:36:32 > 0:36:34Changed your mind about him, then?

0:36:34 > 0:36:36Hardly.

0:36:37 > 0:36:39- You get your cast off?- Yeah.

0:36:39 > 0:36:41- Do us a favour, bud.- Go on.

0:36:41 > 0:36:44- Could you call the fella, tell him the meeting's off tonight?- Yeah.

0:36:44 > 0:36:47- Yeah, make it same venue, same time tomorrow night.- Will do.

0:36:47 > 0:36:49- All right?- Yeah, sound.

0:36:49 > 0:36:51- Oh, s'cuse, Doc. - How's fatherhood treating you?

0:36:51 > 0:36:54- All good so far. - What can I do for you?

0:36:54 > 0:36:56I meant to ask the obstetrician,

0:36:56 > 0:36:59do you think the baby's a good size, given how early he's arrived?

0:36:59 > 0:37:01- Yeah, I'd say so.- Yeah?

0:37:01 > 0:37:04I've seen a lot smaller at around 34 weeks.

0:37:04 > 0:37:07- Right.- Anything else?

0:37:07 > 0:37:10No, that's great. Thank you.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17How long am I in for?

0:37:17 > 0:37:21They'll probably transfer you to maternity for about 24 hours.

0:37:21 > 0:37:23And then, home?

0:37:23 > 0:37:25- If the baby's OK.- Right.

0:37:27 > 0:37:30Mind if I put him over here while I change your dressing?

0:37:31 > 0:37:33I'll take him.

0:37:38 > 0:37:40Thanks.

0:37:55 > 0:37:59I've been thinking, not so sure about Tom any more.

0:38:00 > 0:38:02How come?

0:38:04 > 0:38:07It's a bit old-fashioned, isn't it?

0:38:07 > 0:38:08I like it.

0:38:08 > 0:38:10Really?

0:38:10 > 0:38:12Yeah, it's a proper name.

0:38:12 > 0:38:15- Maybe we should go for something more...- Modern?

0:38:17 > 0:38:19Special.

0:38:19 > 0:38:21How do you mean?

0:38:22 > 0:38:24I don't know.

0:38:26 > 0:38:30As long as you don't go for one of those silly, made-up names.

0:38:31 > 0:38:35- Like Legend? - Or a really hippy one, like Tree.

0:38:35 > 0:38:36Or Nettle.

0:38:36 > 0:38:39Just something that reminds the world...

0:38:41 > 0:38:43..he's our little miracle.

0:38:43 > 0:38:46I mean...

0:38:46 > 0:38:48how many mothers give birth to an immaculate conception?

0:38:51 > 0:38:53What?

0:38:53 > 0:38:56According to your notes, this little thing is six weeks' premature,

0:38:56 > 0:38:57- not two...- No.

0:38:57 > 0:39:00- ..just like your mate told me.- What mate?

0:39:00 > 0:39:02Don't worry, I know she put you in an awkward position.

0:39:02 > 0:39:05- What are you talking about?- There was nothing else you could say.

0:39:05 > 0:39:08- Right, I think... - I just want to hear it from you.

0:39:08 > 0:39:11Hear what?

0:39:12 > 0:39:14This baby's not mine.

0:39:14 > 0:39:17- Mr Brady... - Just admit it.

0:39:17 > 0:39:19Stop it.

0:39:19 > 0:39:23Thing is, I was away for the whole of February this year,

0:39:23 > 0:39:27so if you do the math, I wasn't around for the conception.

0:39:27 > 0:39:30- Give the baby to me. - How long have we been together?

0:39:30 > 0:39:32Too long.

0:39:33 > 0:39:36- I always thought I was a good judge of character.- Mr Brady...

0:39:38 > 0:39:41Maybe I was wrong.

0:39:47 > 0:39:50I'm sorry.

0:39:50 > 0:39:52You will be.

0:39:52 > 0:39:55I think you should leave.

0:39:55 > 0:39:58So, who's the lucky man?

0:39:58 > 0:40:01- Not the personal trainer. That would be...- If you don't go now...

0:40:01 > 0:40:03- ..too much of a cliche. - ..I will call security.

0:40:03 > 0:40:06Or the loser next door, the one who's always sniffing round?

0:40:06 > 0:40:09- Or was it just a random? - I mean it.

0:40:13 > 0:40:15All these years...

0:40:17 > 0:40:20..and it ends like this.

0:40:30 > 0:40:32Meeting's sorted.

0:40:32 > 0:40:35- I want eyes on her 24/7.- On who?

0:40:35 > 0:40:36- My wife.- What's up?

0:40:36 > 0:40:39Just stay here.

0:40:39 > 0:40:41Sean?

0:40:43 > 0:40:46- Everything all right?- Yeah.

0:40:46 > 0:40:48- What's going on there?- Nothing.

0:41:05 > 0:41:07STEEL BOWL CLATTERS

0:41:07 > 0:41:09Butter fingers.

0:41:13 > 0:41:16THEATRE SOUNDS AMPLIFY

0:41:16 > 0:41:19Mr Self?

0:41:21 > 0:41:23'Mr Self?'

0:41:25 > 0:41:27Guy...

0:41:27 > 0:41:29- Guy?- What?

0:41:29 > 0:41:32Is everything all right?

0:41:35 > 0:41:39- What exactly does he know? - That it's not his baby.

0:41:41 > 0:41:43- Did he say anything about me?- No.

0:41:43 > 0:41:45- So, he's got no idea? - He doesn't know who the father is.

0:41:45 > 0:41:48- So, where's he gone? - I couldn't tell you.

0:41:48 > 0:41:50- Nicole, please... - I've got to get out of here!

0:41:50 > 0:41:52- Stay put.- Are you mental? - Put the bag down.

0:41:52 > 0:41:55- Don't you get it?- Get what? - I'm dead. WE'RE dead.

0:41:55 > 0:41:59- You can't just take the baby.- You're letting us out tomorrow anyway.

0:41:59 > 0:42:01- We need to check you both out before...- I don't care.

0:42:01 > 0:42:04- You're safe in here. - Nowhere is safe from him.

0:42:04 > 0:42:06Let her go.

0:42:06 > 0:42:08He'll be back soon.

0:42:08 > 0:42:11I'll sort this out.

0:42:11 > 0:42:15Just...don't tell him the truth.

0:42:16 > 0:42:18All right?

0:42:21 > 0:42:24BABY WHIMPERS

0:42:30 > 0:42:33Thank you, Frank. Just give the old boy some rest.

0:42:33 > 0:42:37Take these fluids to microbiology, crystology, please. Get them tested.

0:42:37 > 0:42:39Why are you holding my patient's fluids?

0:42:39 > 0:42:42- We've just done...- A thoracentesis. - ..on Frank, saving you a job.

0:42:42 > 0:42:44Thanks, but...

0:42:44 > 0:42:47On that theme, why don't you let me take William for an hour tonight?

0:42:47 > 0:42:50I'm very responsible. More so than others.

0:42:50 > 0:42:51That's an utterly redundant statement.

0:42:51 > 0:42:54I'm the surgical registrar, you are the F2.

0:42:54 > 0:42:56OK, OK. What is this, some sort of rescue Mo pact?

0:42:56 > 0:42:59No! I just think you look really tired.

0:42:59 > 0:43:02- And now I look haggard to boot? - Not haggard, no per se.

0:43:02 > 0:43:04I think you look fantastic.

0:43:04 > 0:43:06- I think that's a little insensitive of you, Dr March.- Fluids?

0:43:06 > 0:43:08No, what I was going to say was...

0:43:08 > 0:43:10My eyes are too baggy to see where I'm taking them?

0:43:10 > 0:43:12Just to clarify. What I was...

0:43:14 > 0:43:15Hello?

0:43:15 > 0:43:18Yes, sure. I'll let her know.

0:43:18 > 0:43:21That was Ban Ki-Moon. He says any time you want a job.

0:43:32 > 0:43:34This could screw everything.

0:43:34 > 0:43:37- Will he kill her?- If he finds out it's me.- What about the baby?

0:43:37 > 0:43:39It could compromise the entire operation.

0:43:39 > 0:43:41Will you forget about your poxy job for a minute?

0:43:41 > 0:43:44What's he going to do to her?

0:43:45 > 0:43:49- Right, you need to get her out of here.- With a premature child?

0:43:49 > 0:43:51- Find her a private hospital for the night.- What?

0:43:51 > 0:43:54Well, then, you can get her into a safe house.

0:43:54 > 0:43:56You've got it all planned out, haven't you?

0:43:56 > 0:43:59- She's a witness, isn't she? - These things have to be arranged.

0:43:59 > 0:44:03- So arrange it. - Doesn't work like that, Cara.

0:44:03 > 0:44:07- OK, well, what's the alternative? - We let it play out.

0:44:09 > 0:44:12- I'm talking about two lives here... - Three.

0:44:12 > 0:44:15..and one of them is your son.

0:44:15 > 0:44:17I know.

0:44:17 > 0:44:21You'd put your own son at risk to make an arrest?

0:44:26 > 0:44:28I'll make some calls, see what I can do.

0:44:47 > 0:44:50- SLURS:- Have to close the dura...

0:44:53 > 0:44:55Guy?

0:44:56 > 0:44:59'Mr Self.'

0:45:01 > 0:45:02'Mr Self.'

0:45:06 > 0:45:08I think you need to step away.

0:45:11 > 0:45:13- Guy?- Take your hands off me.

0:45:13 > 0:45:15Now, please.

0:45:15 > 0:45:17- No, I need to...- What?

0:45:19 > 0:45:21..close the dura...

0:45:21 > 0:45:24- Mr Levy will page another neurosurgeon for you.- No.

0:45:24 > 0:45:27- You need to step away now, please. - This is MY patient.

0:45:31 > 0:45:35Guy, it's all right. It's all right.

0:45:35 > 0:45:37That's it. That's it.

0:45:43 > 0:45:46Just come with me, OK?

0:45:48 > 0:45:51That's it, that's it, that's it.

0:46:04 > 0:46:07Is he still hanging round?

0:46:07 > 0:46:09I'll talk to him.

0:46:19 > 0:46:22- Is it sorted?- Yes.

0:46:22 > 0:46:24Are you going to stay with her?

0:46:24 > 0:46:26I need to be near Brady.

0:46:26 > 0:46:28If he comes back, I'll tell him we tried to stop her,

0:46:28 > 0:46:30but she discharged herself.

0:46:30 > 0:46:32Good idea.

0:46:32 > 0:46:36- Who's going to look after them? - Me, if I can get away.

0:46:36 > 0:46:39- You should be with her. - I should be with you.

0:46:39 > 0:46:41Not any more.

0:46:41 > 0:46:43Why are you trying to force me into a family I don't want?

0:46:43 > 0:46:46Because some good has to come of this whole mess.

0:46:46 > 0:46:49THIS is my family...

0:46:51 > 0:46:52..my life.

0:46:52 > 0:46:54- Was.- Is.

0:46:55 > 0:46:58Put that away.

0:46:58 > 0:47:02The only thing keeping me going is the thought that we might still...

0:47:02 > 0:47:04Can I ask you a question?

0:47:05 > 0:47:07Anything.

0:47:07 > 0:47:09What was the plan for Nicole after you'd arrested Brady?

0:47:09 > 0:47:13HE SIGHS

0:47:13 > 0:47:14I don't know.

0:47:14 > 0:47:18Were you just going to dump her and disappear?

0:47:18 > 0:47:21I can hardly introduce her to the Chief Constable, can I?

0:47:21 > 0:47:22So that's a yes?

0:47:22 > 0:47:25If this gets out, my job's over.

0:47:25 > 0:47:28You'd abandon the mother of your own child?

0:47:30 > 0:47:34- Why do you make her out to be so innocent?- Isn't she?

0:47:34 > 0:47:35She knows what Brady is.

0:47:35 > 0:47:38Isn't that why she's trying to get away from him?

0:47:38 > 0:47:41She's been with him for years. Why did she stay with him?

0:47:43 > 0:47:47Sometimes it can take a while to see what's right in front of your face.

0:47:49 > 0:47:53If I make this right, if I get her away,

0:47:53 > 0:47:57- is there a chance... - You do this for your son, Jed.

0:47:58 > 0:48:01Not for me.

0:48:30 > 0:48:33- How is he? - I just fed him again.

0:48:33 > 0:48:36It'll be time for his first pooey nappy soon.

0:48:36 > 0:48:38Looking forward to that one(!)

0:48:40 > 0:48:42I'm going to get you out of here.

0:48:44 > 0:48:46I promise.

0:48:46 > 0:48:48Thanks.

0:48:55 > 0:48:57- Raf.- Yes?

0:48:57 > 0:49:00Nicole Brady's keen to be transferred to a private hospital.

0:49:00 > 0:49:03I don't know about that. It's a bit early, isn't it?

0:49:03 > 0:49:05- She seems strong enough. - What about the baby?

0:49:05 > 0:49:08- He's doing great.- Neonates want him monitored overnight.

0:49:08 > 0:49:10Really?

0:49:10 > 0:49:13Yeah, and maternity called to say there's a bed available.

0:49:13 > 0:49:15They look well enough to be transferred to me.

0:49:15 > 0:49:18Why are you so keen to get rid?

0:49:18 > 0:49:21If the baby unit's full, why clog it up even further?

0:49:21 > 0:49:24We'll make a ward manager of you yet.

0:49:24 > 0:49:27- So, what do you reckon? - Let's stick to plan A.

0:49:30 > 0:49:33Yes, the test is clear, so that's good news.

0:49:37 > 0:49:39Thank you, Dr March.

0:49:39 > 0:49:40You two.

0:49:40 > 0:49:43Excuse us.

0:49:50 > 0:49:52I know you were only trying to help.

0:49:52 > 0:49:54- We shouldn't have stuck our noses in.- No.

0:49:54 > 0:49:57Actually, your under eye area is looking particularly...

0:49:57 > 0:49:59All right, don't push it, Valentine.

0:49:59 > 0:50:01Oh, by the way, the creche called.

0:50:01 > 0:50:03When they told William it was home time,

0:50:03 > 0:50:07he said he wanted to spend some more time with his new BFF, so OJ's on me?

0:50:07 > 0:50:10- Sounds good. - Right, where are we with Frank?

0:50:10 > 0:50:12- Well...- Yeah.

0:50:12 > 0:50:16- I suppose you enjoyed that? - Not in the least, no.

0:50:16 > 0:50:18Ritual humiliation in front of my team?

0:50:20 > 0:50:23Ms Campbell, how was your lecture?

0:50:23 > 0:50:25Tedious beyond words.

0:50:25 > 0:50:27You'll have welcomed the opportunity to get away.

0:50:27 > 0:50:30- What happened? - Are you asking him or me?

0:50:30 > 0:50:33It was a momentary hesitation, nothing more.

0:50:33 > 0:50:35Any idea why?

0:50:35 > 0:50:38I don't know, fatigue maybe.

0:50:38 > 0:50:41Well, I have to say that throughout the day, your behaviour

0:50:41 > 0:50:43has given me increasing cause for concern.

0:50:43 > 0:50:46- What?- How?

0:50:46 > 0:50:49Well, you "postponed" your elective?

0:50:51 > 0:50:53Exactly.

0:50:55 > 0:50:59Do you think this might have anything to do with Mr Renwick?

0:50:59 > 0:51:01Absolutely not.

0:51:01 > 0:51:05- It was a hell of thing to go through.- Yes, and we got through it.

0:51:05 > 0:51:07May I ask if you've been attending your counselling sessions?

0:51:07 > 0:51:09- Some of them.- Guy.

0:51:09 > 0:51:12- I can counsel myself. - Don't give me that macho bull.

0:51:12 > 0:51:15Look, in a couple of weeks, we'll have the Untoward Incident Review,

0:51:15 > 0:51:17which will look at the Renwick shooting

0:51:17 > 0:51:19and the circumstances that gave rise to it.

0:51:19 > 0:51:22But we will now, of course, have to make the Committee aware

0:51:22 > 0:51:24- of today's events. - Oh, for goodness' sake!

0:51:24 > 0:51:28So, in the meantime, I think a leave of absence is in order.

0:51:28 > 0:51:30What?

0:51:30 > 0:51:33- Do you honestly think you're fit to work?- Yes, I do.

0:51:33 > 0:51:36Well, with all due respect, I don't.

0:51:39 > 0:51:41You need to take time off.

0:51:41 > 0:51:44Are you going to let him railroad me?

0:51:44 > 0:51:46I don't think that's what he's doing.

0:51:46 > 0:51:50- OK, so that's that, is it? - You can call it a sabbatical.

0:51:50 > 0:51:53You can call it what you like.

0:52:07 > 0:52:09- Ready?- Yeah.

0:52:11 > 0:52:13Got everything you need here.

0:52:25 > 0:52:27Cara?

0:52:27 > 0:52:30- What are you doing? - Nicole wants to leave.

0:52:30 > 0:52:32- Er, we had this conversation. - I know, but...

0:52:32 > 0:52:35- Isn't it up to me?- No, not when there's a premature baby involved.

0:52:35 > 0:52:37He's doing great.

0:52:37 > 0:52:39We have to make sure that he's well enough to be transferred.

0:52:39 > 0:52:43- But...- I'll take you back to bed. - I'll do it.

0:52:43 > 0:52:45Could you wait in the office for me?

0:52:55 > 0:52:58So he's found out the kid isn't his and she has to go.

0:52:58 > 0:53:02He'll kill her, he'll kill the real dad...and the baby.

0:53:05 > 0:53:08- I don't know what to say. - You don't have to say anything.

0:53:11 > 0:53:14I'm sorry.

0:53:14 > 0:53:15Just help me.

0:53:22 > 0:53:24Frank Thorpe's pleural fluid analysis results.

0:53:24 > 0:53:26Ah, great, excellent.

0:53:31 > 0:53:33Oh, ya beauty!

0:53:33 > 0:53:35Got a signal at last.

0:53:38 > 0:53:41It's just a mild chest infection.

0:53:41 > 0:53:44- You what? - No heart trouble, no cancer.

0:53:44 > 0:53:47No whatever the other thing was?

0:53:47 > 0:53:49Even the infection's not that serious.

0:53:49 > 0:53:52We'll zap it with antibiotics and you should be home in a few days.

0:53:52 > 0:53:55- What'll I do without you? - You'll survive.- Thanks.

0:53:55 > 0:53:57You're very, very welcome.

0:53:57 > 0:53:59- SKYPE RINGS - Oh, hold on.

0:53:59 > 0:54:01Daughter number one.

0:54:01 > 0:54:03Hello, my lovelies.

0:54:03 > 0:54:05- ALL:- 'Hello!'

0:54:05 > 0:54:08And, before you ask, I'm fine, just as I said I would be.

0:54:08 > 0:54:11I want you to meet Dr Effanga.

0:54:11 > 0:54:14She's been...

0:54:14 > 0:54:15amazing!

0:54:15 > 0:54:17'Hello, Dr Effanga.'

0:54:17 > 0:54:20And my new girlfriend, Dr March.

0:54:20 > 0:54:22- 'Hello, Dr March.' - Hi, Frank's family.

0:54:23 > 0:54:27Oh, they're absolute saints in this place, all of them.

0:54:27 > 0:54:29(We'll leave you to it.)

0:54:31 > 0:54:33Not so lonely after all.

0:54:33 > 0:54:35'We love you. Miss you.'

0:54:37 > 0:54:39What's been the hold-up?

0:54:39 > 0:54:41The midwife wanted to check the baby.

0:54:41 > 0:54:44- I had to examine Nicole before she left.- All right.

0:54:47 > 0:54:50What have you told him?

0:54:50 > 0:54:53What does he know?

0:54:53 > 0:54:55Enough to convince him to help.

0:54:57 > 0:55:00Cara, you OK?

0:55:00 > 0:55:02Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

0:55:03 > 0:55:06Nice to see your friend's keeping a look out for you.

0:55:06 > 0:55:09Nice to see someone does.

0:55:12 > 0:55:17- Cara, listen... - Please, Jed, no more lies.

0:55:17 > 0:55:18I love you.

0:55:18 > 0:55:21- Take care of them.- Cara.

0:55:21 > 0:55:24Cara, please.

0:55:24 > 0:55:26Please!

0:55:26 > 0:55:28That's the least you can do.

0:55:35 > 0:55:38I'll get the drinks in.

0:55:40 > 0:55:42Hello, father of mine.

0:55:42 > 0:55:43Hi.

0:55:43 > 0:55:46You OK?

0:55:46 > 0:55:48Yes, I'm fine.

0:55:48 > 0:55:51Well, tomorrow's a new day, with no mistakes in it.

0:55:51 > 0:55:53What do you mean?

0:55:53 > 0:55:56Anne Of Green Gables. You used to read it to me, remember?

0:55:58 > 0:56:00Yes.

0:56:00 > 0:56:01Yes, I do.

0:56:04 > 0:56:07I need these. Shots?

0:56:07 > 0:56:09Two tequilas, please.

0:56:09 > 0:56:11Are you sure this is a good idea?

0:56:11 > 0:56:15Raf, whatever's going on with me and Jed, Nicole and the baby are safe.

0:56:15 > 0:56:18- We did that.- OK, let's do this.

0:56:22 > 0:56:27So, a toast to our utterly bumbling tactlessness today.

0:56:27 > 0:56:31And cheers to your complete sensitivity too.

0:56:31 > 0:56:36I guess I need to be there for William now and you guys knew it.

0:56:36 > 0:56:39Meant a lot. Cheers.
