0:00:02 > 0:00:05We both know that you could have cancer.

0:00:05 > 0:00:07The winter ball, I need a speaker.

0:00:07 > 0:00:10- Someone dazzling, charismatic, cutting-edge.- I'd be honoured.

0:00:10 > 0:00:13We managed to remove the cyst and save the ovary.

0:00:13 > 0:00:15Any sign of malignancy?

0:00:15 > 0:00:18Biopsy's with Histology, and, so, the jury's out.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34We...are geniuses.

0:01:34 > 0:01:35Genii.

0:01:35 > 0:01:37- We're brilliant.- Hm!

0:01:39 > 0:01:42Well, I'm sure as soon as Mrs Grey recovers,

0:01:42 > 0:01:45which she will, thanks to us,

0:01:45 > 0:01:48she'll name her first-born after me.

0:01:48 > 0:01:50Er...

0:01:50 > 0:01:52All right, fine, both of us.

0:01:52 > 0:01:55- How's Dominaac suit you? - THEY CHUCKLE

0:01:55 > 0:01:58Back to base, guys. We have a prisoner incoming.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01So let me get this straight - Mr Griffin is entertaining the board

0:02:01 > 0:02:04with champagne and canapes while we slum it at Albie's?

0:02:04 > 0:02:08But it's not just drinks at Albie's, it's CHRISTMAS drinks at Albie's.

0:02:08 > 0:02:12And all done in the absence of our favourite ice queen, Ms...

0:02:13 > 0:02:15She can't be.

0:02:16 > 0:02:17OPERA MUSIC

0:02:26 > 0:02:29Everything's going smoothly, we're all relaxed.

0:02:29 > 0:02:32At this rate, we might even make an early lunch.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37What the hell do you think you're doing, operating on my patient?!

0:02:40 > 0:02:42- Side room ready?- Indeed.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44I don't suppose we know more about this mystery villain?

0:02:44 > 0:02:47Stomach pains and nausea. You know as much as I do.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50- Hi!- Hi.- Are you coming to Albie's later for the staff party?

0:02:50 > 0:02:53Mm, warm Cava and some sad little vol-au-vents? I wouldn't miss it(!)

0:02:53 > 0:02:56Although I will have to swing by the winter ball

0:02:56 > 0:02:58and go and play the dutiful boyfriend for Isaac

0:02:58 > 0:03:00while he sucks up to Mr Griffin.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03Well, I prefer to get smashed with the lay folk.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06- You see, there are benefits to being single at Christmas.- Mm.

0:03:06 > 0:03:10- Oooh! I don't suppose you know who this deranged criminal is?- No.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30Hello again, Dom.

0:03:32 > 0:03:34I thought I was doing you a favour!

0:03:34 > 0:03:36You thought I was weak, so you took the opportunity

0:03:36 > 0:03:38to steal my patient out from under me!

0:03:38 > 0:03:40You haven't been here! What was the poor woman supposed to do,

0:03:40 > 0:03:43hang around until you returned to have her tumour removed?

0:03:43 > 0:03:44She was non-symptomatic!

0:03:44 > 0:03:47You know as well as I do, that could have waited!

0:03:47 > 0:03:49I had some time. Idle hands.

0:03:52 > 0:03:57Anyway, enough about trivial matters. How are you feeling?

0:03:57 > 0:03:59Like minding my own business. Join me, won't you?

0:04:05 > 0:04:07Oh, here she is!

0:04:07 > 0:04:09Hey, if you want an easy first day back, I'm your gal.

0:04:09 > 0:04:12Anything you need taking off your hands, helping with?

0:04:12 > 0:04:14Imagine I've been sunning myself in the Canary Islands.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17I'm back, refreshed. Business as usual.

0:04:34 > 0:04:36TEXT ALERT

0:04:51 > 0:04:53You couldn't have gone to a different hospital?

0:04:53 > 0:04:55I've been shackled to a pair of prison guards,

0:04:55 > 0:04:57do you really think they gave me a choice?

0:04:57 > 0:04:59Though I'm not going to pretend I'm sorry.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01You're looking good, by the way.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05Mr Cannon. I'm Isaac Mayfield, one of the registrars here.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07Dominic's boss? I am honoured.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09Dr Copeland is more than capable,

0:05:09 > 0:05:12it just doesn't hurt to have belt and braces, given your history.

0:05:12 > 0:05:13Only good thing about bowel cancer -

0:05:13 > 0:05:15one little tummy twinge and I get VIP treatment.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17Do mind if I examine you?

0:05:22 > 0:05:24He's not distended.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26Let's get some bloods.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29FBC, U&Es, LFTs, amylase, CRP and tumour markers.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32If the cancer's back, I'd rather just know.

0:05:33 > 0:05:37Dom knows what I went through the last time. Not pretty.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40You'll know when we know...Mr Cannon.

0:05:47 > 0:05:50Right, I'm up to my eyes in drunks and food poisoning over here.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52Anyone in a white coat want to come and have a look?

0:05:52 > 0:05:55All right, we were just finalising the details for tonight's shindig.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57- You'll be there, I take it?- Not really in the mood, to be honest.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00I've got Mr Collins in bed two. Muppet put his hand in a blender.

0:06:00 > 0:06:02- Oooh, that's mine!- So, er...

0:06:02 > 0:06:05Oh, I think I can hear a red phone ringing somewhere.

0:06:05 > 0:06:08- Something I said? - It's Christmas, Fletch.

0:06:08 > 0:06:12You may want to introduce your face to the concept of festive cheer.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15Or failing that, pretend.

0:06:22 > 0:06:23Mr Cannon's not exactly

0:06:23 > 0:06:27the axe-wielding murderer we were led to believe.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29Probably just some dodgy car dealer.

0:06:29 > 0:06:30Look, I'm not an idiot, Dom.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33You've mentioned your ex before, and the way he was with you in there...

0:06:33 > 0:06:37I wanted to get him patched up and shipped off without you noticing.

0:06:37 > 0:06:40There's only one person who needs to feel bad about what happened.

0:06:40 > 0:06:41Let me take it from here.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43There's no need for you to be in the same room as him.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46And let him think he's got to me? No.

0:06:46 > 0:06:47Lee isn't even on my radar any more.

0:06:47 > 0:06:51He's just an insignificant criminal who's only interested in himself.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54Congratulations on the big promotion!

0:06:56 > 0:06:57So either I've been bumped up to consultant

0:06:57 > 0:07:00purely on the basis of my devastating good looks, or...?

0:07:00 > 0:07:03No. Because Ric's been called away to a GS conference in Bradford,

0:07:03 > 0:07:06you're stepping into his shoes at the winter ball.

0:07:06 > 0:07:07What?

0:07:07 > 0:07:09Well, don't say he hasn't mentioned it?

0:07:13 > 0:07:15Six missed calls, all from Ric.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18We talked about me saying a few words, making a splash,

0:07:18 > 0:07:20not heading up the whole event!

0:07:20 > 0:07:23Well, clearly he thinks you're the next big thing,

0:07:23 > 0:07:25otherwise he'd just ask Ms Campbell.

0:07:28 > 0:07:31Look, why don't you take this tonight, for luck?

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Thank you, but I'm going to need

0:07:35 > 0:07:37a bit more than some make-believe fairy dust

0:07:37 > 0:07:39to impersonate the CEO for the evening.

0:07:41 > 0:07:42Hello, Mr Griffin?

0:07:42 > 0:07:45I think I know why you've been trying to reach me.

0:07:45 > 0:07:48- Mo?- Yeah? - How many more of my patients

0:07:48 > 0:07:51has Rossini staked a claim to since I've been away?

0:07:51 > 0:07:53I am the clinical lead of this department,

0:07:53 > 0:07:56he has no business elbowing his way to the front, and he knows it.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59He's been a star since you've been gone. You should be thanking him.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02Oh. I thought you might have had the intelligence

0:08:02 > 0:08:04to resist his superficial charms. It's a pity.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06- Hm.- And where is Valentine?

0:08:06 > 0:08:10At least I can rely on him not to go giddy at the sight of chest hair.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13Matteo's put him forward to assist on Mr Cockram's mitral-valve repair.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16- He's really been pushing Ollie to do well.- Oh, how nice of him(!)

0:08:18 > 0:08:20You're back.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25- Any news from Histology about your biopsy results?- No.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43(Big news!)

0:08:43 > 0:08:45Christmas is cancelled and we get to skip straight to Boxing Day?

0:08:45 > 0:08:48Even better. They've just opened around the corner from the flat.

0:08:48 > 0:08:51I've called them, and they're open on Christmas Day.

0:08:51 > 0:08:54You're not seriously suggesting we close the curtains

0:08:54 > 0:08:56and eat Chinese food straight out the carton, are you?

0:08:56 > 0:09:00Instead of the forced misery of dry turkey and familial obligations?

0:09:00 > 0:09:02- Oh, yes, I am.- I knew there was a reason I loved you.

0:09:02 > 0:09:04THEY CHUCKLE

0:09:04 > 0:09:06If we snuggle up tight and turn all the lights off,

0:09:06 > 0:09:08it'll be Boxing Day before we know it.

0:09:08 > 0:09:09Mm! THEY CHUCKLE

0:09:09 > 0:09:11Yeah, so just FBC and U&Es as soon as you can.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13- Yeah, no worries, sure.- Good.

0:09:14 > 0:09:15Thank you.

0:09:18 > 0:09:20So I heard a rumour that the criminal we're harbouring

0:09:20 > 0:09:22is actually your ex-boyfriend.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24People love to gossip.

0:09:24 > 0:09:27Oh. So, there's no truth to it, then?

0:09:27 > 0:09:28All right, I get it, back off, Jas.

0:09:28 > 0:09:30Which isn't an answer, by the way.

0:09:30 > 0:09:33Jasmine? The latest batch of research stats are ready.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36Make sure they're inputted before you clock off, hm?

0:09:36 > 0:09:39Everything OK with, er...you-know-who?

0:09:39 > 0:09:41Just another patient.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46The pain! It's been like this off and on.

0:09:48 > 0:09:49How long is it lasting?

0:09:49 > 0:09:52What do you expect me to do, sit with a stopwatch(?)

0:09:52 > 0:09:54LEE GROANS

0:09:54 > 0:09:57We both know what it is, so you might as well stop the whole,

0:09:57 > 0:10:00"we'll do some tests and see where we are" routine.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02If I'm dying, I want to know.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07I bet Arthur felt the same.

0:10:10 > 0:10:11Alison told me.

0:10:11 > 0:10:15She keeps in touch. Sends me updates on the kid from time to time.

0:10:18 > 0:10:20I was sorry to hear about what happened.

0:10:20 > 0:10:21I bet you were(!)

0:10:23 > 0:10:26I hope "Mr Dark and Brooding" has been helping you through it all.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28I don't know who you mean.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30You can't kid a kidder, Dom.

0:10:30 > 0:10:33I saw the way you were looking at him earlier.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36Besotted, devoted.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38It's classic Copeland.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Come on, don't walk away. You used to have a sense of humour.

0:10:41 > 0:10:44I'm going to call and order you a CT.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46The sooner we figure out there's nothing wrong you

0:10:46 > 0:10:48and get you out of here, the better.

0:10:48 > 0:10:49LEE SIGHS

0:10:56 > 0:10:58If you lot think hanging up a load of old weeds

0:10:58 > 0:11:00is going to get me in the Christmas spirit...

0:11:00 > 0:11:03Oh, heaven forfend! Every ward needs its Grinch, after all.

0:11:03 > 0:11:07Although I did have an altogether jauntier role in mind for you.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Are you having a laugh?

0:11:09 > 0:11:11Oh, come on, how can you resist?

0:11:11 > 0:11:13MUSIC: Jingle Bells

0:11:13 > 0:11:14It's delightful!

0:11:16 > 0:11:18It's not like you to set up residence

0:11:18 > 0:11:20on the dour side of the street.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24My old man's been in touch, right?

0:11:24 > 0:11:27He sent a card saying he wanted to see the kids at Christmas.

0:11:27 > 0:11:29Now, apparently, me almost dying, I can deal with,

0:11:29 > 0:11:31but him sending me a card after 15 years of nothing

0:11:31 > 0:11:33has kind of given me the hump.

0:11:33 > 0:11:35Families and the festive season.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37A toxic combination, if ever there was one.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39But, um...if you change your mind...

0:11:39 > 0:11:42Take me back! I've got places to be.

0:11:42 > 0:11:46Get me Ricky Griffin on the phone! He'll have your guts for garters!

0:11:50 > 0:11:53Pretty naughty, stealing another consultant's patients.

0:11:53 > 0:11:56At this rate, Santa won't be bringing you any presents.

0:11:56 > 0:11:57It's Father Christmas.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00Now, if you'll excuse me, I have lives to save.

0:12:00 > 0:12:03What was it I did wrong - asking how you are?

0:12:03 > 0:12:06You'd like that, wouldn't you, if this was just about my paranoia?

0:12:09 > 0:12:11Mr Gill?

0:12:12 > 0:12:15You don't want to do this, trust me.

0:12:15 > 0:12:17Argh!

0:12:17 > 0:12:20Your X-ray indicates that the impact from the crash

0:12:20 > 0:12:22has caused something called a diaphragmatic tear.

0:12:22 > 0:12:24My bowels are where my lungs should be.

0:12:26 > 0:12:28The pretty one explained.

0:12:30 > 0:12:32Good. Then you understand

0:12:32 > 0:12:34why I need to get you into theatre as soon as possible

0:12:34 > 0:12:36- to rectify the situation. - And you are?

0:12:38 > 0:12:40Ms Naylor. Director of Cardiothoracics.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42First name?

0:12:42 > 0:12:44Jacqueline. Known as Jac.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48I work in the insurance business. Risk assessment.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51Which means I know what you lot don't like to talk about.

0:12:51 > 0:12:54People die during surgery.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56If anything happens to me in there, and I mean anything,

0:12:56 > 0:12:58you'd better locate your chequebook.

0:13:00 > 0:13:02Told you.

0:13:02 > 0:13:04Ahhhh!

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Stop! Please, Dom, stop!

0:13:08 > 0:13:09It's back, I know it is.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16Try and stay calm. Breathe.

0:13:16 > 0:13:18I can't do it again!

0:13:18 > 0:13:21The treatment, the not knowing if I'm going to make it.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23We don't know if the cancer is back.

0:13:23 > 0:13:26Arthur was a top bloke. He saved people, and he's dead.

0:13:27 > 0:13:30The universe wouldn't be so screwed up to have killed him and saved me.

0:13:48 > 0:13:51Look at me. I'm going to do a CT scan now

0:13:51 > 0:13:53to try and find out the cause of your pain.

0:13:56 > 0:13:57I can't promise anything.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01But I'll be here with you.

0:14:02 > 0:14:04If that helps.

0:14:13 > 0:14:16Well, that was quite a mouthful you gave the paramedics.

0:14:16 > 0:14:19I'm a full-grown man. They can't bring me against my will!

0:14:19 > 0:14:22You didn't come around until you were in the back of the ambulance.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24What were you doing at the airport, anyway?

0:14:24 > 0:14:27Busking(!) What do people usually do at airports?

0:14:27 > 0:14:30I was waiting for my flight. Vegas, before you ask.

0:14:30 > 0:14:34Not bad, considering that you left here with £200 in your pocket.

0:14:34 > 0:14:36Ask me how long it took me to double my money.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38FLETCH CHUCKLES

0:14:38 > 0:14:41And you thought you'd blow the lot on a ticket to Sin City, eh?

0:14:41 > 0:14:43Rather than, I don't know, paying your gas bill?

0:14:43 > 0:14:45You're never too old to relive the good days.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48You've got a lot of get-up-and-go, I'll give you that.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50Hello there, Mr Chernik.

0:14:50 > 0:14:55Now, I hear you had a fainting fit while trying to flee the country.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57I just felt a bit wobbly, is all.

0:14:57 > 0:15:00People making a fuss over nothing.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02HE COUGHS AND SPLUTTERS

0:15:06 > 0:15:08HE RETCHES

0:15:10 > 0:15:12OK, so, how long's this been going on for?

0:15:12 > 0:15:14On and off for a bit.

0:15:15 > 0:15:18All I need's a bit of time in the warm.

0:15:18 > 0:15:20That is another good thing about Vegas,

0:15:20 > 0:15:22it doesn't rain in the desert.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26Any, um...chest pains, any loss of appetite?

0:15:26 > 0:15:29You're trying to psych me out, put me off my game.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31I taught Ricky how to do that, back in the day.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36OK, so your temp's a little bit higher than I'd like.

0:15:36 > 0:15:39Fletch, can we get FBC, U&Es,

0:15:39 > 0:15:41- LFTs and full clotting as well, please?- Yep.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44So, what does all that mean in English?

0:15:44 > 0:15:47It means we want to keep an eye on you.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50People think doing what I do makes me scum.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52They actually say that to my face, some of them.

0:15:52 > 0:15:54Well, you sell insurance based on the risk

0:15:54 > 0:15:57of bad things happening to people.

0:15:57 > 0:15:59And explain to me how that's different to what you do.

0:15:59 > 0:16:01Take away the premiums, we're both in the same business

0:16:01 > 0:16:04of calculating the chances of someone walking away alive.

0:16:04 > 0:16:05He has a point.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10My mum hates what I do. She wanted me to pursue my art.

0:16:11 > 0:16:12Painting?

0:16:12 > 0:16:14Ballet dancing.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17Know why I didn't? Too much risk I wouldn't make it.

0:16:17 > 0:16:20I'm one of life's winners, what can I say?

0:16:24 > 0:16:27Most surgeons would be thinking thoracoscopic right now, but, you,

0:16:27 > 0:16:28I think open is more your style.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30Why are you still speaking to me?

0:16:30 > 0:16:32Before I go into theatre with a colleague,

0:16:32 > 0:16:35I find this sort of back and forth to be useful.

0:16:35 > 0:16:38No-one said anything about us working together.

0:16:38 > 0:16:41I know why you're being this way with me.

0:16:41 > 0:16:44Is it because you're literally the most annoying person I've ever met?

0:16:44 > 0:16:48It's natural to feel vulnerable, after what you've been through.

0:16:48 > 0:16:52Even the great Jac Naylor can't do everything all on her own.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55Besides, it could be fun.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58- I have to check on a few patients and then I'm all yours.- Mm-hm.

0:17:06 > 0:17:08Sacha. I need a favour.

0:17:16 > 0:17:17- Um...Miry?- Yeah?

0:17:17 > 0:17:20Would you mind making sure that Mr Cannon gets settled for me, please?

0:17:20 > 0:17:22- Sure.- Oh, I get it.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24You don't want lover boy seeing us spending too much time together

0:17:24 > 0:17:27in case he spots those lingering glances you've been giving me.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29I didn't realise you were having hallucinations.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32- I should put that in your notes. - I wouldn't worry about it.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34What's the chances he can read you as well as I can?

0:17:43 > 0:17:44How's our jailbird friend?

0:17:46 > 0:17:47Do you not have somewhere else you can go

0:17:47 > 0:17:50and be research assistant extraordinaire?

0:18:02 > 0:18:03Lapland.

0:18:05 > 0:18:07OK, I didn't see that coming. Explain.

0:18:07 > 0:18:10What's to explain? It's Christmas.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12You and I have been working our butts off

0:18:12 > 0:18:14and I think we'd look pretty cute together

0:18:14 > 0:18:16on a sled pulled by huskies.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18You're serious?

0:18:18 > 0:18:20What better way to spend our first Christmas

0:18:20 > 0:18:23than snuggling together for warmth?

0:18:23 > 0:18:24I'm up to my eyeballs in work,

0:18:24 > 0:18:27and writing this speech for the winter ball is giving me a headache.

0:18:27 > 0:18:28I thought you were pretty much done?

0:18:28 > 0:18:30I was, when I was dive-in-and-make-a-splash guy.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Now I'm representing the whole hospital.

0:18:32 > 0:18:35It needs more jokes, more gravitas, more everything.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37OK.

0:18:41 > 0:18:43Fine.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46Check online.

0:18:46 > 0:18:49If we can go tomorrow and be back in time for work on the 27th, I'm in.

0:18:58 > 0:18:59TEXT ALERT

0:18:59 > 0:19:01Someone's popular.

0:19:01 > 0:19:02No, just a nuisance caller.

0:19:02 > 0:19:05He's been calling eight times a day for the last week now.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07Mr T.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10"How's that speech coming along, best man?

0:19:10 > 0:19:14"Don't forget to make it funny, but not too funny."

0:19:14 > 0:19:16I don't know how much more I can hack, to be honest.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18Well, I've been best man four times.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21When it comes to my turn, I'm going to pick someone I hate,

0:19:21 > 0:19:23just to punish them.

0:19:23 > 0:19:26I will make that wedding rock with laughter, I will.

0:19:26 > 0:19:30Between that and spending Christmas with Mum and her disapproving voice,

0:19:30 > 0:19:33I'd happily swap my Christmas plans for a kick to the solar plexus.

0:19:33 > 0:19:36You could always spend the big day with me and Zosia,

0:19:36 > 0:19:37if you're not feeling it at Chez Effanga.

0:19:37 > 0:19:39Thanks. I will.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48- Oi, Arty, up you get, mate! - Where's my stuff?

0:19:48 > 0:19:51I had a bag with me when I conked out, and if someone's nicked it...

0:19:51 > 0:19:55Your stuff is as safe as houses in that cupboard over there, all right?

0:19:55 > 0:19:56But you need to get back into bed.

0:19:58 > 0:19:59These gowns open up at the back.

0:19:59 > 0:20:02A lady over there won't get a wink of sleep after what she's just seen.

0:20:02 > 0:20:04ARTY LAUGHS

0:20:04 > 0:20:07What do you need your stuff for, anyway? Not going to bunk, are you?

0:20:07 > 0:20:10There's, er...precious stuff in there.

0:20:10 > 0:20:14Important documents, photos that I can't replace.

0:20:14 > 0:20:15Right.

0:20:16 > 0:20:19What were you REALLY going to be doing in Vegas?

0:20:19 > 0:20:23Ah, fame and fortune. The same reason everyone else is there.

0:20:24 > 0:20:28You weren't going to try and get a sneaky peak of a long-lost someone?

0:20:28 > 0:20:30There's nothing wrong with wanting

0:20:30 > 0:20:33to wish my own daughter Merry Christmas, is there?

0:20:34 > 0:20:36Ah. Hello, Arty.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39So we've had your test results back

0:20:39 > 0:20:41and your X-ray shows consolidation

0:20:41 > 0:20:44and your white blood cell count is raised.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46It looks like pneumonia.

0:20:46 > 0:20:50I'm afraid we're going to have to keep you in over Christmas.

0:21:10 > 0:21:13I'm sorry. It looks like I'm late to the party.

0:21:13 > 0:21:15Actually, you weren't invited.

0:21:16 > 0:21:19Could you give Mr Rossini directions to where he should be, please?

0:21:19 > 0:21:21Am I missing something?

0:21:22 > 0:21:24A misunderstanding, I'm sure.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31So, you won't mind if I stay and observe?

0:21:35 > 0:21:38It would be a pleasure to watch you in action, Ms Naylor.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52It isn't cancer. CT confirmed.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55Wow! I didn't realise I'd been holding my breath

0:21:55 > 0:21:58for the last fortnight until just then.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00Once you've had cancer, it's difficult not to think

0:22:00 > 0:22:03every little thing is a sign that it's come back.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06LEE GROANS

0:22:06 > 0:22:08You OK?

0:22:10 > 0:22:12OK, OK. Hold on, hold on, hold on.

0:22:12 > 0:22:13LEE VOMITS

0:22:20 > 0:22:24Right. I need you to tell me where the pain is, specifically.

0:22:24 > 0:22:25Here, mainly. Mainly.

0:22:27 > 0:22:29You look worried.

0:22:30 > 0:22:33Well, it isn't cancer, but your symptoms are real.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40We're going to need to keep you in further for more investigation.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42There are numerous things that wouldn't show up on a CT scan.

0:22:42 > 0:22:46- Nothing that serious?- I'd consider gut ischemia pretty serious.

0:22:46 > 0:22:47Gut what?

0:22:49 > 0:22:52Er...gut ischemia.

0:22:52 > 0:22:53It's where part of the bowel dies.

0:22:53 > 0:22:56Though it would be so, so unlikely.

0:22:56 > 0:22:59Bowel cancer was unlikely in someone so young, as well.

0:23:02 > 0:23:04Here.

0:23:04 > 0:23:05What's that?

0:23:05 > 0:23:08There's so much we never got a chance to say, Dom.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10If I'm going to die of this dead-gut disease,

0:23:10 > 0:23:12I need to get some stuff off my chest.

0:23:20 > 0:23:23Read it when you're alone, OK?

0:23:25 > 0:23:27Can I have a word?

0:23:30 > 0:23:33I was putting the latest research data into the computer

0:23:33 > 0:23:35and I must have pressed the wrong button

0:23:35 > 0:23:39and the system crashed and now none of the stats are on the hard-drive.

0:23:39 > 0:23:41I've deleted everything, Dom. Isaac's going to kill me.

0:23:41 > 0:23:43Can you please help me?

0:23:45 > 0:23:47You wanted to be research assistant.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49Bed made, have a lie-in.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56Cut.

0:23:58 > 0:24:00Wait!

0:24:03 > 0:24:07Oh! On the descending aorta, saccular aneurysm.

0:24:07 > 0:24:10Tough to spot. You really are as good as they say.

0:24:10 > 0:24:12Should we deal with it now, or...?

0:24:12 > 0:24:14Of course you deal with it now.

0:24:14 > 0:24:16Face things head-on, right, Jac?

0:24:18 > 0:24:20He's in no fit state and we're unprepared.

0:24:20 > 0:24:22Let's put a chest tube in, close up.

0:24:22 > 0:24:24- We'll come up with a plan for the aneurysm.- OK.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37Busted! See, I don't know who's worse.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39You for not changing, or us for not learning.

0:24:39 > 0:24:40We don't leave these lying about

0:24:40 > 0:24:43so that we can play with them over our lunch break!

0:24:43 > 0:24:44I had a good reason this time.

0:24:44 > 0:24:48There's only two more direct flights to Vegas left before Christmas,

0:24:48 > 0:24:50and they'll be sold out if I don't get a wriggle on.

0:24:50 > 0:24:52Look, we're not keeping you in here because we want to.

0:24:52 > 0:24:54You're not very well, mate. All right?

0:24:54 > 0:24:57Vegas, it's just not possible.

0:24:57 > 0:25:00OK, so it's a gamble, but that's the business I'm in, remember?

0:25:00 > 0:25:03The last I heard, you didn't have a current phone number for Sydney.

0:25:03 > 0:25:04So, what are you going to do?

0:25:04 > 0:25:07Wander up and down the strip all day hoping to bump into her?

0:25:07 > 0:25:09Stranger things have happened. My luck could be in.

0:25:09 > 0:25:12Or you could just blow through your dough and up in a Vegas hospital.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14You're a real downer, you know that?

0:25:14 > 0:25:17I have her name, her picture, an old number and address.

0:25:17 > 0:25:20There must be some way to track her down in this day and age.

0:25:20 > 0:25:22You're not going to give up on this, are you?

0:25:22 > 0:25:24Not in my nature.

0:25:36 > 0:25:38HE SIGHS

0:25:47 > 0:25:49I can't have an aneurysm.

0:25:50 > 0:25:55I'm only here because I skidded on a patch of black ice.

0:25:56 > 0:25:58That accident probably saved your life.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01It's highly unlikely we'd have spotted the aneurysm otherwise.

0:26:01 > 0:26:05You explained the risks of surgery, you never said anything about this.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07It was unforeseen.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09Am I going to live?

0:26:09 > 0:26:12Am I not going to see next Christmas, this Christmas?

0:26:15 > 0:26:17I have kids.

0:26:17 > 0:26:19Please...I need to know.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24I'll be back to prep you for theatre.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31Jac?

0:26:43 > 0:26:45Someone!

0:26:53 > 0:26:56- Oh, my God! What...?!- Please tell me he's gone for his ultrasound!

0:26:57 > 0:27:00Right, I need you to stay here and look after him.

0:27:00 > 0:27:02- Where's Isaac?- He was heading to the staffroom, last I saw.

0:27:02 > 0:27:04- Where are you going?! - And call Security!

0:27:16 > 0:27:18Well, now it's a party.

0:27:18 > 0:27:22Um...Mr Mayfield's needed out on the ward.

0:27:22 > 0:27:23Don't be such a spoilsport, Dom.

0:27:23 > 0:27:25Me and Isaac were just getting to know each other.

0:27:25 > 0:27:27I tried to tell him the toaster's for staff use only,

0:27:27 > 0:27:30but he's got a stubborn streak a mile wide.

0:27:30 > 0:27:34Making toast is one of those things you don't miss until it's gone.

0:27:34 > 0:27:37You can make an exception just this once.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40Every slice I've had since I got put away

0:27:40 > 0:27:42has either been burned or underdone.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45This...is perfect.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51The guard wasn't badly injured, just in case you were wondering.

0:27:51 > 0:27:54You know, you didn't used to be so quick to judge.

0:27:54 > 0:27:57I mean, there was a time you'd have given me the benefit of the doubt.

0:27:57 > 0:27:58Well, what was I meant to think?

0:27:58 > 0:28:01- He was on the floor with a head injury.- He came in to check on me.

0:28:01 > 0:28:03His mate must have been on lunch or something, I don't know.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05Next thing, he's clutching his chest,

0:28:05 > 0:28:07he falls face-first and hits his head on a trolley.

0:28:07 > 0:28:10I checked he was still breathing and made a break for freedom.

0:28:10 > 0:28:12But instead of running, you came looking for me.

0:28:15 > 0:28:17If I run, they'll add years to my sentence.

0:28:20 > 0:28:23You know what I love about this hospital? It brings people together.

0:28:25 > 0:28:26Me and Dom met here, did you know that?

0:28:26 > 0:28:28He might have mentioned it.

0:28:28 > 0:28:29Then there's you two.

0:28:29 > 0:28:32I mean, is it a long-term thing, do you think?

0:28:32 > 0:28:34- Stop it.- Do you love him?

0:28:34 > 0:28:37If you're asking if we're serious, then the answer's yes.

0:28:37 > 0:28:42If you're trying to intimidate me, better luck next time.

0:28:43 > 0:28:46You know, I was confused before I met Dom.

0:28:46 > 0:28:50He tried to save me and I threw it all back in his face.

0:28:52 > 0:28:55But you can have anyone, why does it have to be him?

0:28:55 > 0:28:57You still have feelings for him.

0:28:58 > 0:29:01Huh! That's the saddest thing I've ever heard.

0:29:01 > 0:29:02OK, drop the knife!

0:29:02 > 0:29:05The guy just collapsed. I didn't do anything wrong!

0:29:09 > 0:29:11DOM EXHALES

0:29:23 > 0:29:25Hey.

0:29:25 > 0:29:29Just wanted to check in. I know how tough it must be

0:29:29 > 0:29:32when Histology drag their heels about biopsy results, so...

0:29:32 > 0:29:35I'm going to do a stent closure on Mr Gill's saccular aneurysm.

0:29:35 > 0:29:38Are you free to assist, in case the diaphragmatic tear

0:29:38 > 0:29:40causes any more problems?

0:29:40 > 0:29:42Yes. Yes, of course.

0:29:43 > 0:29:44Good.

0:29:46 > 0:29:48And Matteo?

0:29:49 > 0:29:51Not required.

0:29:59 > 0:30:02There's bound to be a tricky settling-in period.

0:30:02 > 0:30:04You've been unchallenged at the top of the tree for a while...

0:30:04 > 0:30:07I'm not afraid of being challenged.

0:30:07 > 0:30:09So, you didn't decide to close up just now to spite him?

0:30:09 > 0:30:13Are you accusing me of compromising patient care?

0:30:13 > 0:30:14Absolutely not.

0:30:14 > 0:30:16It was a judgment call.

0:30:16 > 0:30:18There's no right way, there's no wrong way.

0:30:18 > 0:30:21- It's just...- It's Mr Gill!

0:30:28 > 0:30:30- Aneurysm must have ruptured. - His BP's through the floor.

0:30:30 > 0:30:33- Call theatre, tell them we're coming!- No! You're not going!

0:30:33 > 0:30:34- What?!- Out the way!

0:30:34 > 0:30:37You are going to open him up to find a cavity full of blood.

0:30:37 > 0:30:40As skilled as you are, you'll need all the hands you can get.

0:30:40 > 0:30:42There's no shame in asking for help.

0:30:42 > 0:30:45Sacha, with me! Let's go!

0:30:52 > 0:30:54You're a star! No, hang on, hang on!

0:30:57 > 0:30:58Right, fire away.

0:31:02 > 0:31:05That is perfect!

0:31:05 > 0:31:07And a Merry Christmas to you, too.

0:31:07 > 0:31:10Ha-ha! You beauty! Mwah!

0:31:10 > 0:31:14OK! Er...please tell me there's some mistletoe above us right now.

0:31:14 > 0:31:17Oh, forget about that, right? Because I played a blinder.

0:31:17 > 0:31:19Saving lives, bringing people together.

0:31:19 > 0:31:21I should have my own chat show.

0:31:21 > 0:31:24Wouldn't have anything to do with Arty and his long-lost daughter?

0:31:24 > 0:31:27He's still insisting he's going to be on a flight come dinner time.

0:31:27 > 0:31:29Oh, he's so open about it, it's almost charming.

0:31:29 > 0:31:32I tried to tell him it could kill him, but...

0:31:32 > 0:31:34Please tell me you found a way to keep him here.

0:31:34 > 0:31:37It was back-breaking labour and it took every bit of nouse I've got,

0:31:37 > 0:31:38but I've tracked down Sydney.

0:31:38 > 0:31:41I have her current telephone number in my sweaty little hand

0:31:41 > 0:31:42and I'm about to call it.

0:31:42 > 0:31:45So she can come over here and, then, bang! No Vegas.

0:31:45 > 0:31:48What, and you think she's willing to fly halfway across the world

0:31:48 > 0:31:51to see a man who she hasn't spoken to in a decade?

0:31:51 > 0:31:52No.

0:31:52 > 0:31:56But she might get on the bus because she only lives around the corner.

0:31:58 > 0:32:00Right, more suction!

0:32:00 > 0:32:03- More!- He's bleeding quicker than we can suction.

0:32:04 > 0:32:05OK, let's hang another two units!

0:32:05 > 0:32:07Can't get in quick enough.

0:32:07 > 0:32:09Maybe we could use another pair of hands.

0:32:09 > 0:32:11No, that's not necessary!

0:32:13 > 0:32:14All right, I can't see!

0:32:15 > 0:32:17- Jac, if we lose him...- Be quiet!

0:32:17 > 0:32:20STEADY BEEPING

0:32:22 > 0:32:25Foley catheter! Quickly!

0:32:31 > 0:32:33OK, stapler.

0:32:36 > 0:32:37- You ready to deflate?- Mm-hm.- OK.

0:32:37 > 0:32:40When I staple, you pull out the catheter. OK?

0:32:40 > 0:32:41- Yep.- Go.

0:32:45 > 0:32:46OK, suction.

0:32:51 > 0:32:52QUICK BEEPING

0:33:00 > 0:33:01Good job.

0:33:08 > 0:33:10Looks like they're not taking any chances.

0:33:12 > 0:33:14- Do you blame them? - Don't look at me like that.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16I was just having some toast and chatting to your boyfriend.

0:33:16 > 0:33:19I wanted to make sure he was good enough for you.

0:33:19 > 0:33:21He's not, in case you were wondering.

0:33:24 > 0:33:27Look, I...I meant what I said in that note.

0:33:28 > 0:33:30I love you. I always will.

0:33:30 > 0:33:34Nothing about the way you treated me has anything to do with love.

0:33:34 > 0:33:35I made mistakes, I admit,

0:33:35 > 0:33:38but I came good in the end - I gave Arthur's medals back!

0:33:38 > 0:33:41Just give me a chance to make it up to you.

0:33:41 > 0:33:43Please.

0:33:54 > 0:33:55Why on earth would I do that?

0:34:00 > 0:34:03You fooled me once, but...

0:34:07 > 0:34:09My life is better now.

0:34:10 > 0:34:13I'm with a decent guy who loves me.

0:34:13 > 0:34:15Loves me in the way I deserve to be loved.

0:34:17 > 0:34:20I don't want you in my life.

0:34:22 > 0:34:24Ultrasound.

0:34:24 > 0:34:28Oh, I see we've stepped up security a notch. Wonder why(?)

0:34:28 > 0:34:31Sometimes things aren't always as they seem.

0:34:31 > 0:34:34True, and sometimes they are.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40On that note...

0:34:43 > 0:34:45- Is that...?- Gallstones.

0:34:47 > 0:34:50They don't always show up on a CT scan.

0:34:51 > 0:34:53That's it, gallstones?

0:34:53 > 0:34:57Yep. Probably just blocking your biliary duct occasionally.

0:34:57 > 0:34:59That's what the pain is.

0:35:00 > 0:35:02So you won't need surgery today.

0:35:02 > 0:35:03Maybe in the future.

0:35:05 > 0:35:07Just painkillers should do.

0:35:07 > 0:35:09So you can go back to where you came from now.

0:35:11 > 0:35:12Good news all-round.

0:35:16 > 0:35:19I'm sorry I poked fun at you earlier.

0:35:19 > 0:35:21I didn't realise he was, you know, dangerous.

0:35:21 > 0:35:24He's not. Not now.

0:35:25 > 0:35:29So, any luck in retrieving that research data?

0:35:30 > 0:35:34Isaac should have just picked you as research assistant.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36All I've done is let him down.

0:35:37 > 0:35:39All right, fine.

0:35:39 > 0:35:42Let's see what these magic fingers can find on that hard drive.

0:35:45 > 0:35:47All right.

0:35:47 > 0:35:48Yep.

0:35:51 > 0:35:52Got it.

0:35:54 > 0:35:55It's not good news for Arty, is it?

0:35:55 > 0:35:57FLETCH SIGHS

0:35:57 > 0:35:59Not only has his daughter lived locally

0:35:59 > 0:36:01for the last ten years and never mentioned it,

0:36:01 > 0:36:04she won't even pick up the phone.

0:36:04 > 0:36:06Happy Christmas, Arty(!)

0:36:19 > 0:36:22Will you please stop pacing?

0:36:22 > 0:36:24Things don't just vanish from hard drives.

0:36:24 > 0:36:28They're sometimes just a little bit difficult to find.

0:36:30 > 0:36:32OK, sometimes they're VERY difficult to find.

0:36:32 > 0:36:36Oh! I am going to go down in legend

0:36:36 > 0:36:40as the F1 who ruined Isaac Mayfield's research career.

0:36:42 > 0:36:45How am I going to tell him?

0:36:45 > 0:36:46You're not.

0:36:48 > 0:36:51It's the winter ball tonight, then it's going to be Christmas.

0:36:51 > 0:36:53The chances are, he's never going to look at this until the new year,

0:36:53 > 0:36:57which gives us the time together to try and get this back.

0:36:58 > 0:37:00Really? You'd do that for me?

0:37:02 > 0:37:04What he doesn't know won't hurt him.

0:37:05 > 0:37:07Ah. I get it.

0:37:07 > 0:37:09You don't want your first Christmas together

0:37:09 > 0:37:11ruined by him complaining about how incompetent I am.

0:37:11 > 0:37:16I'd rather not have a stressed-out boyfriend ruining Lapland, yes.

0:37:16 > 0:37:18You're going to Lapland?

0:37:18 > 0:37:20Won't that just be full of kids and old people?

0:37:22 > 0:37:26I mean...Lapland? Wow!

0:37:29 > 0:37:33Well, well, I hear you and Mo smashed it in there. Quite the team.

0:37:33 > 0:37:36Well, they don't call us Butch and Sundance for nothing.

0:37:36 > 0:37:39Yes, OK, no-one calls us that, but we do make a pretty good combo.

0:37:39 > 0:37:41You should probably be a bit jealous.

0:37:41 > 0:37:45- Well, I would be, except for one thing.- Ah?

0:37:45 > 0:37:48You and Mo won't be eating chow mein in bed at Christmas.

0:37:49 > 0:37:51- Y...- What?

0:37:52 > 0:37:54KNOCK AT DOOR

0:37:57 > 0:38:00Is there something I can help you with?

0:38:01 > 0:38:04I just heard you're back, that's all. I thought I'd check in.

0:38:04 > 0:38:06I've had a pretty rubbish day, and...

0:38:06 > 0:38:08This is for Emma.

0:38:08 > 0:38:10I thought I'd get her something,

0:38:10 > 0:38:12seeing as I'm her only aunt, and everything.

0:38:16 > 0:38:20Traditionally, this is where you take the gift and say thank you.

0:38:26 > 0:38:28I always envied you around Christmas-time.

0:38:29 > 0:38:32At least in care, there'd be people around.

0:38:34 > 0:38:38Are you kidding? That is cold - even for you!

0:38:48 > 0:38:50OK, you ready for this?

0:38:50 > 0:38:53Fine, I'll break a pregnant woman's lonely heart at Christmas.

0:38:53 > 0:38:55That's not going to send me to hell at all, is it(?)

0:38:55 > 0:38:57Chinese food in bed. Just keep repeating it.

0:38:57 > 0:38:59Ahem! Hi!

0:38:59 > 0:39:01- Hi!- Hey!

0:39:01 > 0:39:04So, what's with the mystery text - "Meet me in Pulses, five minutes"?

0:39:04 > 0:39:08I just thought that we could, um...have a quick chat.

0:39:08 > 0:39:10Right, if this is about Christmas, I've been thinking.

0:39:10 > 0:39:13I think the two of you, first Christmas together,

0:39:13 > 0:39:15what would I really bring to the mix?

0:39:15 > 0:39:17Then I remembered, I'm a total blast!

0:39:17 > 0:39:19When people hear about how much fun we had,

0:39:19 > 0:39:22they'll be begging me to come to theirs next year.

0:39:22 > 0:39:25I'm talking home-made mince pies, carol-singing contests

0:39:25 > 0:39:28and a Monopoly competition that can stretch into the wee hours.

0:39:28 > 0:39:31Our Christmas is going to go down in legend.

0:39:31 > 0:39:33In the future, our children will write songs about it.

0:39:33 > 0:39:36Mo, listen, I know I invited you, but I think I might have...

0:39:36 > 0:39:39I still haven't forgotten about the Polish thing.

0:39:39 > 0:39:41Christmas Eve, we'll go all-out.

0:39:41 > 0:39:44We'll make it really special, like your mum would, if she could.

0:39:46 > 0:39:47ZOSIA SIGHS

0:39:47 > 0:39:49Sounds wonderful.

0:39:50 > 0:39:52Maybe we should lay off the Monopoly. We're all competitive.

0:39:52 > 0:39:55Wouldn't want anyone to get hurt now, would we?

0:39:55 > 0:39:58But I can still bring the mince pies and sing Good King Wenceslas?

0:39:58 > 0:40:00- A-ha!- We'd be gutted if you didn't.

0:40:00 > 0:40:01OK.

0:40:01 > 0:40:03Oh, yeah, up we go.

0:40:03 > 0:40:04Oooooooh!

0:40:08 > 0:40:12New Year's is more of a Chinese-food-in-bed type of holiday.

0:40:12 > 0:40:14Nuh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh.

0:40:18 > 0:40:22Ah! Could you e-mail that research data to my home address?

0:40:22 > 0:40:24Dom's making me go on some Christmas getaway,

0:40:24 > 0:40:26but I should have time to review it while we're gone.

0:40:26 > 0:40:29Um...is...is that allowed?

0:40:29 > 0:40:33I'm just thinking, you know, data security and all that.

0:40:33 > 0:40:36Is there a problem?

0:40:36 > 0:40:37Jasmine?

0:40:53 > 0:40:57You made it through that surgery earlier by the skin of your teeth.

0:40:57 > 0:41:00Admit that Matteo should have been there.

0:41:06 > 0:41:09Is it really so terrifying that someone should get to know you?

0:41:09 > 0:41:10Or want to?

0:41:14 > 0:41:17I know how lonely a health scare can be,

0:41:17 > 0:41:19but you have family here.

0:41:23 > 0:41:25And if you can't lean on us at Christmas, then when can you?

0:41:25 > 0:41:28I don't lean on people who betray me.

0:41:30 > 0:41:32Jac, Matteo hasn't betrayed you. He's a bit overbearing sometimes...

0:41:32 > 0:41:35I'm not talking about Luigi, I'm talking about you.

0:41:35 > 0:41:39You and Mr Thompson jumped at the opportunity

0:41:39 > 0:41:42to tell Griffin that you didn't think I was up to the job.

0:41:42 > 0:41:43Because you were ill.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47Jac, I think the fact that you collapsed

0:41:47 > 0:41:5030 seconds after Ric tried to talk to you about it

0:41:50 > 0:41:51rather proved our point.

0:41:53 > 0:41:55You're lashing out and you're being ridiculous.

0:41:55 > 0:41:57JAC SIGHS

0:42:00 > 0:42:04I'm your best friend, and it is my duty to look out for you.

0:42:04 > 0:42:07Look, just because your life is a barren wasteland

0:42:07 > 0:42:10of failed romances and children you barely know,

0:42:10 > 0:42:13don't think you can stick your nose into mine.

0:42:28 > 0:42:30Can I at least say goodbye?

0:42:32 > 0:42:33Dom...?

0:42:33 > 0:42:36If you come here again, I'll make sure someone else is treating you.

0:42:45 > 0:42:49When were you going to say Jasmine erased months' worth of work?

0:42:49 > 0:42:50I thought you had enough on your plate,

0:42:50 > 0:42:53what with everything that Ric put on you this morning...

0:42:53 > 0:42:55This is my research, Dom. My career!

0:42:55 > 0:42:59Did you think you could just bail Jasmine out of trouble, is that it?

0:42:59 > 0:43:02It was a computer error. I mean, it could happen to anyone.

0:43:02 > 0:43:04But it didn't, it happened to her.

0:43:04 > 0:43:06I fired her, in case you're wondering.

0:43:06 > 0:43:08- There was no need for... - Don't come to the ball tonight.

0:43:08 > 0:43:10I'm under enough stress at the moment.

0:43:10 > 0:43:12The last thing I need is you there making things worse.

0:43:25 > 0:43:28I spoke to Mr Thompson. He wasn't able to get hold of you.

0:43:31 > 0:43:33Is that them?

0:43:36 > 0:43:38YOU open it.

0:43:38 > 0:43:40Whatever it says, don't beat about the bush.

0:44:01 > 0:44:03You're all clear.

0:44:05 > 0:44:06You don't have cancer.

0:44:11 > 0:44:13SHE EXHALES

0:44:15 > 0:44:17Why did you do that? I was horrible to you.

0:44:19 > 0:44:21Agreed.

0:44:21 > 0:44:22But it's Christmas.

0:44:24 > 0:44:25What are friends for?

0:44:27 > 0:44:29SHE EXHALES

0:44:34 > 0:44:37Do you know what? He's not that bad.

0:44:38 > 0:44:41Would it be so terrible to let him in just a little?

0:44:44 > 0:44:46Right, see you at Albie's?

0:44:46 > 0:44:49Maybe we can do some karaoke together. Me Kylie, you Jason?

0:44:49 > 0:44:51Get away from me.

0:45:02 > 0:45:05I probably could have used you in theatre today.

0:45:05 > 0:45:08I want to get to know you, Jac, that's all.

0:45:10 > 0:45:12I don't like mushrooms.

0:45:12 > 0:45:14Maybe now you can stop stalking me.

0:45:16 > 0:45:19I heard you with your sister before.

0:45:19 > 0:45:22She doesn't understand that when you pretend to care too little,

0:45:22 > 0:45:24it's because that really, you care too much.

0:45:24 > 0:45:27She doesn't see you like I do.

0:45:34 > 0:45:36You thought you'd got me.

0:45:36 > 0:45:38I went all quiet for a bit there

0:45:38 > 0:45:41and you thought I'd come around to your way of thinking.

0:45:41 > 0:45:46Bloke over there having his X-rays loaned me...this!

0:45:46 > 0:45:50I snaffled a last-minute flight online.

0:45:50 > 0:45:53£200 off!

0:45:53 > 0:45:54I need to talk to you about something.

0:45:54 > 0:45:58DON'T give me all that you'll-never-find-her nonsense!

0:45:58 > 0:46:01If I have to knock on every door in Vegas, I will.

0:46:01 > 0:46:03I spoke to her, mate.

0:46:03 > 0:46:06I-I did an online search of the public records in Las Vegas

0:46:06 > 0:46:09and I got a list as long as your arm.

0:46:09 > 0:46:12You...you...you...you narrowed it down, you found her.

0:46:12 > 0:46:13You did it!

0:46:16 > 0:46:18She doesn't live in America, mate.

0:46:19 > 0:46:21She lives around here.

0:46:22 > 0:46:24And she has done since her mum died, by the looks of things.

0:46:24 > 0:46:26What?!

0:46:27 > 0:46:29No, she can't do!

0:46:29 > 0:46:32I just had to look her up in the phonebook.

0:46:32 > 0:46:36But you...you explained how much I wanted to see her,

0:46:36 > 0:46:39how sorry I am for everything that happened?

0:46:45 > 0:46:47She's got a new life now, mate.

0:46:49 > 0:46:51She doesn't want to know, I'm sorry.

0:46:53 > 0:46:55I know I made mistakes.

0:46:57 > 0:46:58The way I treated her mum.

0:47:00 > 0:47:04But I always thought I'd get time to make it up to her.

0:47:06 > 0:47:09There's not a day goes by I don't think about my Sydney.

0:47:11 > 0:47:13I never thought I'd die...

0:47:15 > 0:47:17..without seeing my little girl again.

0:47:19 > 0:47:21What could I possibly have done...

0:47:24 > 0:47:26..that would make me deserve that?

0:47:36 > 0:47:38HE BREATHES DEEPLY

0:47:40 > 0:47:41I made it.

0:47:43 > 0:47:46Somewhat against the odds, it must be said.

0:47:48 > 0:47:52The aneurysm ruptured. We were able to get you into theatre in time.

0:47:52 > 0:47:56It was touch-and-go there for a while, but it came good in the end.

0:47:58 > 0:48:00You went out on a limb trying to save me.

0:48:02 > 0:48:05I would have crunched the numbers and written myself off.

0:48:07 > 0:48:11What if one of my kids wants to be a ballet dancer or a painter?

0:48:12 > 0:48:13What will I say to them?

0:48:15 > 0:48:16"Better weigh it all up,

0:48:16 > 0:48:19"look at the statistics before you commit to anything"?

0:48:19 > 0:48:21Probably not.

0:48:21 > 0:48:23HE CHUCKLES

0:48:23 > 0:48:24Oh! Ah!

0:48:24 > 0:48:31Ha! Ha-Ha! I feel like Ebenezer Scrooge on Christmas morning.

0:48:33 > 0:48:36Get me the biggest turkey you can find.

0:48:36 > 0:48:41Ha-ha! And I promise not to cook it for 24 hours, like I usually do.

0:48:43 > 0:48:45I might even start dancing again.

0:48:46 > 0:48:50I thought you were joking about the whole ballet thing.

0:48:50 > 0:48:52A 40-something-year-old bloke in tights?

0:48:54 > 0:48:57I mean, what could possibly go wrong?

0:48:57 > 0:48:59HE CHUCKLES

0:48:59 > 0:49:00Goodnight, Mr Gill.

0:49:02 > 0:49:03SHE SIGHS

0:49:03 > 0:49:06Ah! "Don't be late," he said.

0:49:06 > 0:49:09"I won't have time to wait around for you to show up."

0:49:09 > 0:49:12Yes, I know, I'm a hypocrite.

0:49:12 > 0:49:14And...?

0:49:14 > 0:49:16And you're the queen of the world.

0:49:16 > 0:49:18THEY CHUCKLE

0:49:18 > 0:49:21I can't believe there are only a few days left of this year.

0:49:21 > 0:49:22Good riddance, I say.

0:49:22 > 0:49:25The amount of good things that have happened this year

0:49:25 > 0:49:26could fit on the back of a postage stamp.

0:49:26 > 0:49:28Agreed.

0:49:28 > 0:49:30So that's enough, we have a job to do.

0:49:32 > 0:49:34DOM SIGHS A-hem!

0:49:44 > 0:49:47At least we won't have to listen to him wittering on

0:49:47 > 0:49:50about how the guns fell silent, Christmas 1914.

0:49:50 > 0:49:52Or how Napoleon was almost assassinated

0:49:52 > 0:49:54on Christmas Eve.

0:49:57 > 0:50:00Promise me we'll remember him every year.

0:50:00 > 0:50:02Even if no-one else does.

0:50:03 > 0:50:05I promise.

0:50:06 > 0:50:10I need to get back to Keller, where the fun never stops, so can we...?

0:50:10 > 0:50:12- Oooh!- Oh, no, it's nothing, it's fine.

0:50:12 > 0:50:15Defensive AND snatchy. It doesn't look like nothing to me.

0:50:15 > 0:50:17HE CLEARS THROAT

0:50:19 > 0:50:21You know the prisoner that came in today?

0:50:21 > 0:50:26Please don't tell me a serial killer has taken a shine to you.

0:50:26 > 0:50:28Lee Cannon.

0:50:28 > 0:50:31Come back to haunt me like the Ghost of Christmas Past.

0:50:32 > 0:50:34The note's brief and to the point.

0:50:34 > 0:50:35"I still love you."

0:50:37 > 0:50:40And, what, you're tempted, or...?

0:50:40 > 0:50:41For a split-second, but...

0:50:43 > 0:50:45..there's only one man I love.

0:50:45 > 0:50:48It just so happens that he's not speaking to me at the moment, so

0:50:48 > 0:50:50looks like it could be another miserable Christmas

0:50:50 > 0:50:53- in the Copeland household. - Don't look so sad.

0:50:53 > 0:50:55It wouldn't be Christmas if we weren't falling out

0:50:55 > 0:50:58with our nearest and dearest, now, would it?

0:50:58 > 0:51:02Go and find him. Make it up, whatever it takes.

0:51:04 > 0:51:05If this year has taught me anything,

0:51:05 > 0:51:07it's to cling on to the people we love the most.

0:51:07 > 0:51:09Tooth and nail.

0:51:14 > 0:51:17That's not the face of a man about to walk away with a bagful of money.

0:51:17 > 0:51:19Leave me alone, can't you?

0:51:19 > 0:51:22Let me just think about that for a second. Er...no dice.

0:51:22 > 0:51:24Now, then, Nurse Fletcher tells me you fancy yourself

0:51:24 > 0:51:27as a bit of a poker fiend, Mr Chernik.

0:51:27 > 0:51:29I used to play with the boys on my unit.

0:51:29 > 0:51:31I was undefeated three tours in a row.

0:51:31 > 0:51:33I've only ever played against my dad,

0:51:33 > 0:51:35but he says I'm really awesome at it.

0:51:35 > 0:51:39Get ready to lose your shirt, Arty.

0:51:39 > 0:51:41- Why are you doing this?- Because it's Christmas and you're my mate.

0:51:41 > 0:51:44And maybe I want to believe in happy endings for a bit.

0:51:44 > 0:51:47Except I didn't get my happy ending.

0:51:47 > 0:51:50And you're not going to get real money either, but, hey. Hm!

0:51:50 > 0:51:53Don't think I'm going to go easy on you.

0:51:54 > 0:51:57Even if we are only playing for chocolate.

0:51:57 > 0:51:59Keep an eye on him, don't let him win every hand.

0:51:59 > 0:52:01What?! No, wait! You can't leave,

0:52:01 > 0:52:03having persuaded us all to forgo a jolly at Albie's!

0:52:03 > 0:52:05Five minutes, that's all.

0:52:22 > 0:52:23Dad?

0:52:24 > 0:52:26Yeah, it's me.

0:52:28 > 0:52:31I...I wanted to wish you Happy Christmas.

0:52:31 > 0:52:33ANIMATED CHATTER

0:52:34 > 0:52:37We couldn't achieve half of what we do without the support of the board.

0:52:37 > 0:52:39I know it must feel like we take all of the credit,

0:52:39 > 0:52:43but we honestly couldn't do it without all of you, so, enjoy.

0:52:43 > 0:52:45Sorry to interrupt.

0:52:45 > 0:52:48Mr Mayfield, there's an emergency on Keller.

0:52:48 > 0:52:49Excuse me.

0:52:53 > 0:52:55Look, whatever you've got to say, I don't have time.

0:52:55 > 0:52:58I've got to give the welcome speech in two minutes.

0:52:58 > 0:53:02This whole thing with Jasmine was simply an error of judgment.

0:53:02 > 0:53:06I've been trying to work out all day what I can say to make this better.

0:53:10 > 0:53:12You are my man.

0:53:12 > 0:53:14You're my world.

0:53:16 > 0:53:17All I want for Christmas is you.

0:53:21 > 0:53:24Now, I know you don't believe this will help, but...

0:53:26 > 0:53:28..it would really mean a lot to me.

0:53:32 > 0:53:34MUSIC: Black Magic by Little Mix

0:53:34 > 0:53:36ANIMATED CHATTER

0:53:41 > 0:53:43- Happy Christmas.- Happy Christmas.

0:53:46 > 0:53:48- CLANGING - Sorry, can we...? Thank you.

0:53:50 > 0:53:53A-hem! I have been told that I don't share enough.

0:53:54 > 0:53:57These are uncertain times.

0:53:57 > 0:53:59It's easy to get disheartened.

0:53:59 > 0:54:01To cut ourselves off from the world

0:54:01 > 0:54:03in an effort to make sense of things.

0:54:04 > 0:54:06But that's not what Christmas is all about.

0:54:08 > 0:54:11We do what we do all year round

0:54:11 > 0:54:14with integrity and without complaint.

0:54:15 > 0:54:17You're all phenomenal.

0:54:17 > 0:54:19The NHS is phenomenal.

0:54:22 > 0:54:25My credit card's behind the bar for 30 minutes only. Merry Christmas.

0:54:25 > 0:54:28- CHEERING - Merry Christmas!

0:54:28 > 0:54:30Ho-ho-ho!

0:54:30 > 0:54:32Merry Christmas, everyone!

0:54:32 > 0:54:34- Wow! - I want to touch him. Is that wrong?

0:54:34 > 0:54:36If that's wrong, I don't think I want to be right.

0:54:36 > 0:54:39I'm offended, I think. Are you slightly offended?

0:54:39 > 0:54:41Yes, I am actually a little bit offended.

0:54:41 > 0:54:44When did it become acceptable to objectify Mr Rossini like that?

0:54:45 > 0:54:47Fair enough.

0:54:58 > 0:55:01If you've come to ask me to dance, I'd love to.

0:55:01 > 0:55:03You're very good at getting in people's heads, Rossini.

0:55:03 > 0:55:06It's just a shame you won't let anyone return the favour.

0:55:07 > 0:55:08Ask me anything.

0:55:08 > 0:55:10Why are you really here?

0:55:12 > 0:55:14Some things are just meant to be.

0:55:15 > 0:55:17Don't worry, I'll find out.

0:55:34 > 0:55:37No offence, but I'm pretty glad to get out of there this evening.

0:55:37 > 0:55:40Me, too. You might be a consummate actor,

0:55:40 > 0:55:42but I can only keep up the charade for so long.

0:55:42 > 0:55:44Charade?

0:55:45 > 0:55:47Not sure I get the joke.

0:55:47 > 0:55:49YOU are the joke.

0:55:49 > 0:55:51It's just lies upon lies with you, isn't it?

0:55:51 > 0:55:55It's bad enough I almost ended up being gutted by your psycho ex!

0:55:55 > 0:55:58Well, you said...you said you were OK.

0:55:58 > 0:56:01You were the one that said that he wasn't dangerous.

0:56:01 > 0:56:02What was I supposed to say?

0:56:02 > 0:56:05I can't afford to look weak in front of the other staff.

0:56:05 > 0:56:08I should never have been put in that position in the first place.

0:56:08 > 0:56:10You're right, you're right. I'm sorry, I didn't mean...

0:56:10 > 0:56:13And he's clearly still in love with you.

0:56:13 > 0:56:15And I bet you didn't do anything to put him off, did you?

0:56:17 > 0:56:20Does he even know Dominic's not your real name?

0:56:20 > 0:56:24Has he any idea what a common little loser you really are?

0:56:24 > 0:56:26What? Why are you...?

0:56:26 > 0:56:29"Let's go to Lapland!"

0:56:29 > 0:56:31As if I didn't know you were trying to make up

0:56:31 > 0:56:33- for fantasising about the jailbird! - I wasn't!

0:56:33 > 0:56:38People like me don't go to Lapland, Dom.

0:56:38 > 0:56:40Not only do you show up and try to ruin my big night,

0:56:40 > 0:56:44but you couldn't resist one last humiliation.

0:56:44 > 0:56:47I thought we'd got past you believing in fairy dust.

0:56:47 > 0:56:49I gave you that for luck.

0:56:49 > 0:56:52You gave it to me as a reminder of the only man in your life

0:56:52 > 0:56:54that I've ever really been competing with.

0:56:54 > 0:56:57Well, here's what I think of your precious Arthur.

0:57:02 > 0:57:04Merry Christmas.
