0:00:02 > 0:00:04- Are you OK?- Someone help him!
0:00:04 > 0:00:08- I had liposuction. - Why?- Why do you think?
0:00:10 > 0:00:12Is this the flatmate you were telling me about?
0:00:12 > 0:00:14Jac, please, I never lied.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17There are things, memories, I have to leave behind.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19Everything all right?
0:00:19 > 0:00:23The relationship between two surgeons needs to be one of respect
0:00:23 > 0:00:27and trust, and it appears Mr Rossini and I have neither.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10Can I get some help, a crash trolley, please?
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Nothing like making an entrance.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15He collapsed just outside the ward.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17I could have wasted time resuscitating him
0:01:17 > 0:01:19- on a cold floor or...- Roger that.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21Let's see if we can get him back, shall we?
0:01:28 > 0:01:30DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES
0:01:30 > 0:01:33- Hi.- Hey.- You OK?
0:01:33 > 0:01:36Yeah, yeah, I just need some coffee that's all.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40- I'll see you at the coalface.- Mm-hm.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46Charge.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48Clear.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Shock.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55He's back in sinus. Let's get him on to a bed, please.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02Listen, don't tell Jac I said this,
0:02:02 > 0:02:04but you've been on a proper roll since she's been gone.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07Working without her looking over your shoulder obviously suits you.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10All I want to do is focus on the work.
0:02:13 > 0:02:14Great.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16You are going to have a scar, I'm afraid,
0:02:16 > 0:02:18but it might serve as a reminder
0:02:18 > 0:02:21not to go running into any more plate glass windows.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25Great. Right, we're off. Darwin are ready, Theatre 1's prepped.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28- Mind your backs! - Mr Coates! Mr Coates!
0:02:28 > 0:02:30Mr Coates, Mr Coates, look, look, look,
0:02:30 > 0:02:33look, I told you already, can you get back into bed, please?
0:02:33 > 0:02:36- He's quick for an old fella, isn't he?- Oh, you've got no idea.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Last time he managed to get to the main reception
0:02:38 > 0:02:39without anyone catching him.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41Well, look who it is.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43You been gambling up a storm in Vegas?
0:02:43 > 0:02:44Yeah, something like that.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48Well, it's good to see that nothing much has changed in my absence.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50Well, chaos... it's good for the soul.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52At least that's what I used to tell my teachers.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Ah, Mr Griffin, you must be the cavalry
0:02:54 > 0:02:56Mr Hanssen's been promising us.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00Well, I'm glad to be back somewhere where I'm needed.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Did he fill you in on the change of personnel around here?
0:03:03 > 0:03:06Yeah. How are you finding it flying solo?
0:03:06 > 0:03:08On the home front - no comment.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10But keeping this place firing on all cylinders
0:03:10 > 0:03:12is what gets me out of bed in the morning.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Firing on all cylinders?
0:03:14 > 0:03:16The locum I was promised never materialised
0:03:16 > 0:03:18and the trauma unit is my priority.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21- Everything else has been... - De-prioritised?
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Well, no disasters so far. Bay 3.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49Um, did you wear that shirt yesterday?
0:03:51 > 0:03:54You see, these bold patterns all look the same to most people.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Not to me.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Nice hair. New do?
0:03:59 > 0:04:02What can I say? I'm just a trendy guy.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04That or you left your comb in the same place
0:04:04 > 0:04:05that you left your clean shirt.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12- So where do we start? - Wherever you want.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16Oh, Mr Scott called in sick and asked if you could look after
0:04:16 > 0:04:19Laura Banner, she's an elective patient
0:04:19 > 0:04:22and he felt it important that a consultant handle her care.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26So...the polyp on the bowel.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28Don't say I don't know how to spoil you.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36Tell me if I'm overthinking this, but what I said about Jac before,
0:04:36 > 0:04:39I wasn't implying that anything had happened between you two.
0:04:39 > 0:04:40I didn't think you were.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44Because as far as I'm concerned you two are happy as Larry,
0:04:44 > 0:04:47no awkwardness, no bad atmosphere.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50Hard to keep a secret around here, isn't it?
0:04:50 > 0:04:52Yeah, well, no-one knows what they're talking about -
0:04:52 > 0:04:55- least of all me. - But you know all is not well.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58Well, there is this nasty rumour going around
0:04:58 > 0:05:00that you and the Ice Queen had a little tiff
0:05:00 > 0:05:02before she went off to Copenhagen.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04But I just want to let you know I wasn't fishing.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07- Your business is your business. - Oh, that's good to hear.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09But, word of advice?
0:05:09 > 0:05:11See, now, Jac, she likes to pretend she's a one-woman country
0:05:11 > 0:05:13made entirely of ice and everything,
0:05:13 > 0:05:16but break through that...she's actually really sensitive.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18And the advice?
0:05:18 > 0:05:21Stick with it. Whatever it is, it'll blow over.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Oh, since we're being mates and everything.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27A patient who's on the transplant list for a new heart is in again.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30I've got a ventricular aneurysm repair scheduled in 20 minutes,
0:05:30 > 0:05:32so I'm reluctantly handing him over to you.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34A 69-year-old on the transplant list?
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Yeah, he's as tough as old boots, Jimmy. Fit as any 40-year-old.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40Course, the chest pains would suggest otherwise.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Just assess him and keep him comfy.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48- You're back. - Ten points for observation.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55Sorry about the mess. I don't go anywhere without my craft things.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57- Keeps me busy.- I bet.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59I'm going to have 20 home-made Christmas cards done
0:05:59 > 0:06:02by the time I get out of here. I've set myself a challenge.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06You do know that Christmas is quite a few months away yet.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10I think I was a Boy Scout in a previous life. Always be prepared.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13Oh, I am so sorry, doctor!
0:06:13 > 0:06:15It's fine, don't worry about it.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17You look like one of my cat's toys.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Um...
0:06:22 > 0:06:24So, the polyp on the bowel.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27You sure we can't go back to talking about Christmas cards?
0:06:27 > 0:06:29I've got a glue gun I can show you.
0:06:30 > 0:06:35Er...it's an elective procedure, so you're aware of the risks.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Our aim is to remove the polyp
0:06:38 > 0:06:40and ensure it doesn't develop into something nastier,
0:06:40 > 0:06:42if it hasn't already.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45- The "Big C" in other words.- Yeah.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48And when you say "remove," you mean, what,
0:06:48 > 0:06:50just get in there and cut it out?
0:06:50 > 0:06:54No, we'll be doing a thing called a laparoscopic right hemicolectomy.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56And will I be under the whole time?
0:06:56 > 0:06:58Well, we find that's the best way, yes.
0:06:59 > 0:07:03So that's a definite, then, the general?
0:07:03 > 0:07:06Well, I think the most important thing is we remove the polyp.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08We don't worry about anything else, just-just leave it to me.
0:07:08 > 0:07:14No, but what I mean is, could you do it without the anaesthetic?
0:07:18 > 0:07:19KNOCK ON DOOR
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Can we talk?
0:07:22 > 0:07:24About?
0:07:26 > 0:07:27Jac...
0:07:27 > 0:07:30Look, unless you have a patient or some other departmental matter
0:07:30 > 0:07:33you'd like to discuss, then I suggest you go back to doing
0:07:33 > 0:07:35what you're paid for.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37I thought you might have calmed down after some time away.
0:07:39 > 0:07:40Was there anything else?
0:07:42 > 0:07:45Whenever you're ready to let me explain, you just let me know.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Mr Hanssen, it's Ms Naylor.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00I'd like to find some time this morning
0:08:00 > 0:08:04to discuss last week's untoward incident involving Mr Rossini.
0:08:12 > 0:08:13Psst.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Psst.
0:08:19 > 0:08:20Has she seen sense?
0:08:20 > 0:08:23I've tried talking to her about everything, but she won't budge.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25You have a go.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Are you sure you want me in on this after what happened last week?
0:08:36 > 0:08:38You made a mistake.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40The best way to learn is to get back on the horse.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43- Call it a clean slate. - You read my mind.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45This is where he's supposed to be, but...
0:08:45 > 0:08:48You looking for me?
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Don't worry about this, I do this all the time.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Keeps the old blood flowing of a morning.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56To be honest, it's best not to get the "blood flowing"
0:08:56 > 0:08:58when you're on a transplant list.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00My old dad lived till he was 85,
0:09:00 > 0:09:02and I intend to outdo him.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04But what's the point of a long life
0:09:04 > 0:09:07if you can't have a little laugh along the way?
0:09:07 > 0:09:10My name is Mr Rossini, this is Mr Valentine.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12Ms Effanga's been held up in theatre,
0:09:12 > 0:09:14so we're going to be heading up the investigation in the meantime.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Find out what's going on with the old ticker.
0:09:16 > 0:09:20Which is hopefully as little as possible.
0:09:20 > 0:09:21How would you suggest we proceed?
0:09:21 > 0:09:25Amylase. Echocardiogram, chest CT.
0:09:25 > 0:09:30Oh, sounds like a lot of fuss for a bit of indigestion.
0:09:30 > 0:09:31Let us run our tests.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34We'll have a much better picture of what's going on after that.
0:09:34 > 0:09:42Well, for the record, I want to be back in full working order soon.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45I know I probably look about a hundred to you,
0:09:45 > 0:09:48but there's plenty I still want to do with my life.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51We'll be back. Hang tight, Mr Hornby.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54I-I-I don't suppose you've got a potato
0:09:54 > 0:09:56and a drinking straw knocking around, do you?
0:09:56 > 0:10:00It's just that I taught science to kids for 50 years -
0:10:00 > 0:10:02and I still do two days a week at an after-school club.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05I promised Mo the next time I came in
0:10:05 > 0:10:07I'd show her some tricks of the trade.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10- A potato and a straw.- Mm.
0:10:10 > 0:10:11We'll see what we can do.
0:10:11 > 0:10:16In the meantime let's get you back to bed. Nurse, please.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21So, what, you're saying you won't undergo a general anaesthetic?
0:10:21 > 0:10:23I just think you should be able to find another way.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26That's all. I was going to mention all this to Dr Scott.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28This is the only way I'm going to get you into theatre?
0:10:31 > 0:10:32OK.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36So, I am prepared to try and remove this polyp endoscopically
0:10:36 > 0:10:37using a mild sedative.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40- So, no general?- No, no general.
0:10:40 > 0:10:41Well, that would be amazing.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44- Great. Good. I'll speak to you later.- Hang on.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47You're not just going to leave it at that?
0:10:47 > 0:10:49The polyp might not even be cancerous.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51But if it is then you're going to have to go laparoscopic
0:10:51 > 0:10:53and put her under a general anaesthetic.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59Go and talk to her again and find out why she's so set against it.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10Jimmy Hornby's test results.
0:11:13 > 0:11:1515% ejection fraction.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Yeah, it's not good. Do you want me to tell him?
0:11:18 > 0:11:21Let's try treating him medically and hope the heart output improves.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23I don't want to discuss desperate measures until we're sure.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26Diuretics, dopamine, oxygen?
0:11:26 > 0:11:27And cross our fingers.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32So, stab the potato with the straw.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35- It can't be done.- Are you sure?
0:11:35 > 0:11:37This potato is rock solid.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40I did study some science in my six years or so at university -
0:11:40 > 0:11:41maybe I missed that class.
0:11:42 > 0:11:47But put your thumb over the end of the straw and try again.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49My thumb.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54The magic of science!
0:11:54 > 0:11:57Well, I stand corrected.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59The kids at your school must feel very lucky to have you.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04Try telling that to the new headmistress.
0:12:04 > 0:12:09The old headmaster was keen for me to set up the after-school club
0:12:09 > 0:12:10when I retired.
0:12:10 > 0:12:14This new one is doing all she can to faze me out.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16- That's outrageous.- Mm.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Ah!
0:12:19 > 0:12:22I suppose you want me back in my bed?
0:12:22 > 0:12:23Call me old-fashioned,
0:12:23 > 0:12:26but I think it's the best place for people with dodgy hearts.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Get him to show you how to bend water next time.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32Ah, science geek.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37Don't tell anyone, but there was a time you couldn't separate me
0:12:37 > 0:12:39from my chemistry set.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41We're kindred spirits, then.
0:12:43 > 0:12:49No...pressure, but I'm counting on you to bring me through this.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Sounds like a little bit of pressure to me.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53You're right.
0:12:53 > 0:12:57Forget about that. Just keep me alive.
0:12:57 > 0:12:58Deal?
0:13:00 > 0:13:03I thought army life was all about spit and polish?
0:13:03 > 0:13:06Oh, everything in here is meticulously organised,
0:13:06 > 0:13:08but there's only one of me
0:13:08 > 0:13:11and I've got better things to do than paperwork.
0:13:11 > 0:13:16Well, far be it from me to parachute in and start passing judgment...
0:13:17 > 0:13:20It... It's basic triage.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Deal with the things that need dealing with first
0:13:22 > 0:13:25and everything else, admin, for example, can wait.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29AAU needs a firm hand.
0:13:30 > 0:13:31Rules.
0:13:33 > 0:13:34Boundaries.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37Well, maybe now you're here you can help
0:13:37 > 0:13:38to take some of the pressure off.
0:13:39 > 0:13:44Or I could step up... give you a break...
0:13:44 > 0:13:46if that would be useful?
0:13:56 > 0:13:59Oh, I know that face.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01Someone steal your favourite scalpel, did they?
0:14:03 > 0:14:07Either that or you're here to deliver bad news.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10Tests have shown you also have pulmonary hypertension.
0:14:10 > 0:14:14Which means doing a heart transplant might no longer be an option.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16And without one of those, I won't last long.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21Well, that's it, then. I'm off to the scrapheap.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25Maybe, maybe not. I have an idea.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27We could put you on what's called an assist device...
0:14:27 > 0:14:28No machines. Not ever.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31Jimmy, it could be your best chance.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33Let science give you a helping hand.
0:14:35 > 0:14:36Have you seen one of these?
0:14:36 > 0:14:40It demonstrates the... The magic of air pressure.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43- We need to talk about this. - Yeah, in a minute.
0:14:43 > 0:14:44Watch.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48Your hypertension rules out an orthotopic transplant.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50This could be your only chance.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55At my age I've seen too many of my friends die hooked up to machines.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59I'd rather go out the way I am.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03If you want to save me,
0:15:03 > 0:15:06looks like you're going to have to think of something else.
0:15:39 > 0:15:43No. Absolutely, 100% no way.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45So you're still on the fence, then?
0:15:45 > 0:15:47What part of risking a patient's life,
0:15:47 > 0:15:50not to mention the good name of this hospital, do you find funny?
0:15:50 > 0:15:52He's trying to do exactly the opposite.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54I suggest you keep your mouth shut, Mr Valentine.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56This is called a Consultants' office for a reason.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Got your page. What's up?
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Mr Rossini is trying to torture your patient
0:16:00 > 0:16:03by sticking two hearts in his chest.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06He's my patient now, and I'm trying to save his life.
0:16:06 > 0:16:09My plan is a heterotopic transplant.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12Why heterotopic? Surely an assist device would make more sense.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14He refuses point blank.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16And his pulmonary hypertension rules him out
0:16:16 > 0:16:18of having an orthotopic transplant.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20Well, the other alternative is a heart and lung transplant.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22He doesn't have time to wait for that.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25So your suggestion is to perform an outdated procedure
0:16:25 > 0:16:28- on a patient that's too old. - I can do it.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31You might think you can do it, but the fact is you've never tried.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34And the chance of finding a heart in time is incredibly low.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Mr Levy's just guiding the device through your bowel.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45My Steve was always such a healthy bloke.
0:16:45 > 0:16:49Even when he started with stomach pains he put it down to nothing.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53You'd be surprised what people can put up with sometimes.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57I ran him a hot bath, you know, to help.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02He had to call on me to ring an ambulance
0:17:02 > 0:17:04cos the pain was so bad he couldn't get up again.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06Sounds like you did the right thing.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11Took one look at him in the A&E and said it was his appendix.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14"Silly to wait so long," they said.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18"It's such a simple procedure."
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Could you be quiet, please?
0:17:24 > 0:17:27So they then took him to theatre?
0:17:30 > 0:17:32We had a few seconds before they put him under.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36I said something daft about the phone bill.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40I just wanted to keep things light.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45If I'd have known it was the last time we'd speak...
0:17:46 > 0:17:48..I would have tried to have done better.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56That's why you didn't want to go under anaesthetic.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Great, it's all done.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Now you can be footloose and polyp-free.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10We've been contacted by a hospital in Cardiff.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Their patient died on the table
0:18:12 > 0:18:14before he could receive his donor heart.
0:18:14 > 0:18:15They need a new recipient fast
0:18:15 > 0:18:18and we are one of the only hospitals who might have a suitable patient
0:18:18 > 0:18:21- ready in time to accept.- Is Jimmy...?- He's a match.- Brilliant!
0:18:21 > 0:18:25Unfortunately, they're at hour one of the four-hour window.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27We'll have to check his recent tests,
0:18:27 > 0:18:30but assuming the heart's viable once it gets here...
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Two against one. All systems go!
0:18:33 > 0:18:35In what world is this department a democracy?
0:18:35 > 0:18:36I'm a Consultant.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39I have a right to operate on my patients as I see fit.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41Not if it hikes up our mortality stats
0:18:41 > 0:18:44and compromises the reputation of Darwin.
0:18:47 > 0:18:51From now on, AAU will run like a well-oiled machine.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53Ordered and efficient.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56Well, you can't make a ward be something that it's not, though.
0:18:57 > 0:19:01I've drawn up outline rotas for the next three months.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04I would advise you strongly not to allow any shift changes
0:19:04 > 0:19:06without express permission being given.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08No-one will clock off
0:19:08 > 0:19:12until and unless they are completely up to date with their paperwork.
0:19:12 > 0:19:17I feel sure that the extra hour or so you spend after every shift
0:19:17 > 0:19:21will be filed under the category of time well spent.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24I don't suppose slipping you a fiver would make this go away, would it?
0:19:24 > 0:19:26Absolutely not, I'm having way too much fun for that.
0:19:26 > 0:19:30I'm simply asking that we all give our complete focus
0:19:30 > 0:19:32and attention to AAU.
0:19:34 > 0:19:38- No more distractions. - Ric Griffin?
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Wow! You look older than you do in your photos.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Is this a friend of yours, Ric?
0:19:44 > 0:19:47I'm not his friend. I'm his granddaughter.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55Well, any other day you'd have got her to open up about her husband
0:19:55 > 0:19:57before you went into theatre
0:19:57 > 0:20:00and you'd have done the procedure that you wanted to do.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02Still, no harm, no foul.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04That's not the point I'm trying to make. Are you all right?
0:20:04 > 0:20:07- You seem all out of sorts. - Yes, I'm running late.- Sacha?
0:20:08 > 0:20:10Places to go, people to see.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13Yeah, and they're all on this ward! Where are you going?
0:20:14 > 0:20:17I know it might not work out, but for what it's worth,
0:20:17 > 0:20:19I really admire what you've achieved today.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23Jimmy came in with chest pains and now his days are numbered.
0:20:23 > 0:20:24I haven't done anything.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Well, you tried. You thought outside the box.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29The innovation was there, just like it was with your stent idea.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31- Still smarting about that? - Absolutely.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33Though even I can admit that the better man won.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36Give me time and I'll give you a run for your money.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38Forward me your CV.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41- Hm?- You're talented. You work hard.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44I think it would be best for all of us if you make Consultant
0:20:44 > 0:20:45sooner rather than later.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48You'd seriously be up for seeing me in the right direction?
0:20:48 > 0:20:49I'll warn you.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52The answer is nearly always, "Work harder, get more experience."
0:20:52 > 0:20:54I'm not afraid of hard graft.
0:20:54 > 0:20:58Then send it over. Something good should come out of today.
0:21:03 > 0:21:04Take a seat.
0:21:14 > 0:21:18Well, you've grown since the last time I saw you.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20Don't pretend like you recognised me.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22I could tell from your face that you didn't.
0:21:24 > 0:21:31Look, Darla, clearly you and I have a lot of catching up to do,
0:21:31 > 0:21:33but this isn't the right time.
0:21:33 > 0:21:35- Why aren't you at school? - Inset day. Next question?
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Why are you here? Where's your father?
0:21:40 > 0:21:43- You take your pick.- He's at work.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45He trusted me to stay at home alone,
0:21:45 > 0:21:48but I got bored and thought I'd look for my long lost grandad.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50What can I say? I'm trouble.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54I'll give him a call and get him to come and pick you up.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57He doesn't answer the phone when he's working.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59Anyway, he wouldn't recognise your number.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01We haven't seen you in, like, ten years, remember?
0:22:04 > 0:22:06Look, I...
0:22:06 > 0:22:10admit that the years have gone by rather more quickly
0:22:10 > 0:22:12- than I would have liked. - Then let me stay.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14We can get to know each other.
0:22:14 > 0:22:18It's really not appropriate to have a child on the ward.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22- Besides, I really am very busy... - Busy bossing people about, you mean?
0:22:22 > 0:22:24I thought you were some hotshot surgeon.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27Turns out all you do is shuffle papers and shout orders.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31First impressions can be deceptive.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36Why don't we give your father the opportunity to come and pick you up?
0:22:36 > 0:22:38What's his number?
0:22:44 > 0:22:45CONNECTING TONE
0:22:48 > 0:22:49BEEP
0:22:50 > 0:22:53Now you can't just chuck me out.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56I'm a minor and you can't reach my dad.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59Looks like you've got a duty of care, Grandad.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06What made you leap to the idea of having two hearts in one patient?
0:23:06 > 0:23:09- Was it a flash of inspiration? - Not quite.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15I could show you a really cool trick, but I'm not in the mood now.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18Ah, Mr Rossini, the man I was on my way to see.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20I just wanted to catch up with you
0:23:20 > 0:23:23regarding last week's tricuspid valve regurgitation.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26It appears that Ms Naylor is moving forward with her formal complaint.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30HE CLEARS THROAT
0:23:34 > 0:23:39Hey. Um... Ploughman's lunch, please, thank you.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52A formal complaint? Really?
0:23:52 > 0:23:55Mistakes have consequences - or haven't you learnt that by now?
0:23:55 > 0:23:57One false move and Hanssen will have me off the ward.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59But that's what you wanted all along, isn't it?
0:23:59 > 0:24:02- I don't know what game you think I'm playing here...- I'm married.
0:24:02 > 0:24:03I know I should have told you,
0:24:03 > 0:24:05but surely the fact that the marriage is over
0:24:05 > 0:24:08- counts for something?- It's a departmental issue. Nothing more.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10I'm putting a hold on that heart.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13I'm doing this transplant, whether you like or not.
0:24:13 > 0:24:17You can't push me out, I'm too good. Watch me prove it.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24Mrs Boyce in bed three needs her seroma draining.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27Mr Connors needs his discharge papers signed.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30Yeah, I know, I know, I...I'm way behind.
0:24:30 > 0:24:35It's just that, well, basically I was meant to be going to do...
0:24:35 > 0:24:40Are those excuses that you're searching for, Dr Digby?
0:24:40 > 0:24:44Nope. I'll do all of the above in record-quick time!
0:24:44 > 0:24:47If he wants something doing he should just do it himself.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Darla...
0:24:51 > 0:24:54Why don't you just tell him how annoying he is?
0:24:54 > 0:24:57Well, mostly because he's my boss's boss.
0:24:57 > 0:25:03And, well more importantly, it's because I don't find him...
0:25:03 > 0:25:07I don't find you annoying at all, actually, in any way, so...
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Good save, Dr Digby.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11- Shall I just...?- Go.- Right.
0:25:15 > 0:25:16Right. Well, now that you've seen
0:25:16 > 0:25:19the sort of excitement that my job entails...
0:25:19 > 0:25:22Yep. You're like a teacher, only much more pointless.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Maybe it's time for you to go home.
0:25:28 > 0:25:32I can call a neighbour or a friend's parent?
0:25:33 > 0:25:36You're exactly like Dad said. Always got something better to do
0:25:36 > 0:25:38than spend time with your own family.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40Are you still here?
0:25:40 > 0:25:42School will have something to say about that, I should think.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44Inset day, apparently.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48And... And you knew he'd fall for that
0:25:48 > 0:25:51because he's never done the school run in his life, am I right?
0:25:51 > 0:25:54Ric, inset days are at the beginning and end of term,
0:25:54 > 0:25:56not bang in the middle, as we are now.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58It's a boarding school. They're different.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Boarding school.
0:26:00 > 0:26:04Right, but near enough that you could get here on your own.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07Well, it must be St Cuthbert's, right?
0:26:07 > 0:26:09And there'll definitely be someone in the office
0:26:09 > 0:26:12- to answer the phone, inset day or not.- All right, young lady,
0:26:12 > 0:26:15we're going to get to the bottom of this right now.
0:26:15 > 0:26:16SHE GROANS IN PAIN
0:26:16 > 0:26:18Darla...
0:26:19 > 0:26:24- Agh!- Darla. It's all right. Darla, my name's Bernie.
0:26:24 > 0:26:25Where's the pain?
0:26:27 > 0:26:29Well, it could be her appendix.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31Can I have a trolley, please?
0:26:31 > 0:26:34All right, all right. Ric, I'll deal with this.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36SHE SCREAMS IN PAIN
0:26:36 > 0:26:38Hey, it's me.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41Could you come to Albie's for me, please?
0:26:41 > 0:26:44There's a... There's a bit of a...situation.
0:26:46 > 0:26:47Yeah.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49Could you... And could you bring your purse?
0:26:50 > 0:26:54We have the heart. It's on its way here now.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56Go. I'll draft in another registrar.
0:26:58 > 0:26:59Matteo.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02Where are we in the four-hour window?
0:27:02 > 0:27:04We're borderline.
0:27:04 > 0:27:05And if Jac asks?
0:27:07 > 0:27:10Jac'll haul you over the coals for this. You know that, right?
0:27:10 > 0:27:11I'm not letting my patient down.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13If that means Jac gets her wish
0:27:13 > 0:27:15and I end up looking for other work...so be it.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25You're upset about this, aren't you?
0:27:25 > 0:27:30No, I would just like you to admit that it's odd behaviour, that's all.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32Oh, come on. I see you nipping off to the vending machine
0:27:32 > 0:27:34practically every day.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37Yeah, but not out of the hospital grounds in the middle of a shift.
0:27:38 > 0:27:42All right, OK, I hold my hands up, I should've waited.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45But me stealing from Albie's?
0:27:45 > 0:27:48Oh, come on, you've got to see the funny side of it.
0:27:51 > 0:27:52Well, if you're worried
0:27:52 > 0:27:55I'm not going to pay you back for the wine...
0:28:05 > 0:28:08- Mr Valentine?- Sorry, can't stop. I'm on my way to...
0:28:08 > 0:28:10Collect Mr Hornby's defective heart?
0:28:10 > 0:28:12No-one's saying we're not out on a limb here.
0:28:12 > 0:28:15It's more than that. Mr Rossini is risking his patient's life.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17He's close to death. This is his last chance.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20He's also risking every penny of funding this department gets.
0:28:20 > 0:28:22You know the board go through mortality stats
0:28:22 > 0:28:23with a fine-tooth comb.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25I know you and Matteo are having personal issues.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27I haven't a clue what they're about and I don't care -
0:28:27 > 0:28:30but be reasonable. This is exactly the sort of move you'd make.
0:28:30 > 0:28:31He is being negligent.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34One mistake can be forgiven, but two in as many weeks...
0:28:34 > 0:28:37We both know that last week wasn't his fault.
0:28:38 > 0:28:41A formal complaint has been made following last week's incident.
0:28:41 > 0:28:42If he puts one more foot wrong,
0:28:42 > 0:28:46like doing an outdated procedure on an unsuitable patient, for example,
0:28:46 > 0:28:48I can argue for his dismissal.
0:28:50 > 0:28:52Why are you telling me this?
0:28:52 > 0:28:55Think very carefully about whose side you're on, Mr Valentine.
0:28:55 > 0:28:57You have a promising career ahead of you.
0:28:57 > 0:29:00I hate to see all that potential go to waste.
0:29:02 > 0:29:05I've done a thorough examination and I've ordered an ultrasound,
0:29:05 > 0:29:09but as far as I can tell there's nothing to worry about.
0:29:09 > 0:29:11She doesn't have appendicitis?
0:29:11 > 0:29:13No. She's faking it.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17Ric, kids do it all the time.
0:29:17 > 0:29:19Mine did.
0:29:20 > 0:29:23A lot of army friends put their kids in boarding school.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26Well, running away is not at all uncommon.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29Though in Darla's case, if I had to hazard a guess,
0:29:29 > 0:29:32I'd say that all she wants is to spend some time with you.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37Rather sweet, when you come to think of it.
0:29:39 > 0:29:41There are a couple of other words I can think of to describe it.
0:29:44 > 0:29:47I've never been much good at hospitals.
0:29:47 > 0:29:50Give me a Bunsen burner and a mouldy old shed any day.
0:29:51 > 0:29:53Try not to worry.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57Maybe I should give up the after-school club
0:29:57 > 0:30:00and just enjoy my retirement.
0:30:02 > 0:30:07Tell me I've still got a chance of making it through this thing.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10With me on your side I'd call it more than a chance.
0:30:10 > 0:30:12Blind optimism.
0:30:12 > 0:30:13Another reason I like you.
0:30:19 > 0:30:21SIRENS WAIL
0:30:21 > 0:30:23Come on, come on, come on...
0:30:34 > 0:30:36Cheers, thank you.
0:30:40 > 0:30:41Thank you!
0:30:45 > 0:30:47Hold the lift, please! Thank you!
0:30:47 > 0:30:51Ric, go easy on her, will you? Look, I've...
0:30:51 > 0:30:55I've enjoyed having her around. She's a live wire, that one.
0:30:55 > 0:30:58Must take after her mother's side of the family.
0:31:00 > 0:31:01Ah.
0:31:01 > 0:31:02Yes, I...
0:31:02 > 0:31:06I did wonder if she cottoned on to the fact I'd rumbled her.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11Smart girl.
0:31:12 > 0:31:14What's happening to me?
0:31:14 > 0:31:16Severe abdominal pain! Started a few minutes ago.
0:31:16 > 0:31:17This level of pain isn't normal.
0:31:17 > 0:31:20Right, can we call X-ray and tell them we're on our way?
0:31:20 > 0:31:21Can I get 10mg of morphine
0:31:21 > 0:31:23and can I get some help here, please? Thank you.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26Hello, X-ray, this is Keller...
0:31:27 > 0:31:29She's a 13-year-old girl who just wants to spend
0:31:29 > 0:31:32a little bit of time with her grandpa.
0:31:32 > 0:31:34Trust me, she won't have got far.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36You'd be basing this on what exactly?
0:31:36 > 0:31:38Feminine intuition?
0:31:40 > 0:31:42This is killing you, isn't it?
0:31:42 > 0:31:43A little ball of chaos
0:31:43 > 0:31:45exploding in the middle of your perfectly ordered day.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51You're enjoying this, aren't you?
0:31:51 > 0:31:53Well, let's just say, if Darla teaches you the art
0:31:53 > 0:31:55of flying by the seat of your pants,
0:31:55 > 0:31:56I don't think it'd be such a bad thing.
0:31:57 > 0:31:59Ah, and there she is.
0:32:01 > 0:32:05The lesser-spotted teenager loitering by the watering hole
0:32:05 > 0:32:08in the middle of the savanna.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10You can thank me later.
0:32:15 > 0:32:16Where are we on the clock?
0:32:16 > 0:32:18One hour, 12 minutes.
0:32:18 > 0:32:21It's pink. Looks healthy.
0:32:23 > 0:32:25Mr Rossini?
0:32:25 > 0:32:28We're within a reasonable window. I'm happy to go ahead.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32Two hearts.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34Cooley clamp, please?
0:32:41 > 0:32:42What is this?
0:32:42 > 0:32:44If you're going to ruin the reputation of my department,
0:32:44 > 0:32:46the least I can do is be here.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49And him?
0:32:49 > 0:32:52Impartial witness. In case any mistakes are made.
0:32:52 > 0:32:56- Right. Because doing this procedure wasn't pressure enough.- Jac...
0:32:56 > 0:33:00you know that without him the patient wouldn't have got this far.
0:33:00 > 0:33:04Thank you, Mr Valentine, but your presence is no longer required.
0:33:04 > 0:33:06That means you can go now.
0:33:13 > 0:33:15Proceed, Mr Rossini.
0:33:16 > 0:33:18Scalpel, please.
0:33:25 > 0:33:27Now, sit there.
0:33:30 > 0:33:33Look, I may not know you that well,
0:33:33 > 0:33:35but I do know that you're a smart girl
0:33:35 > 0:33:39and you know how serious it is to waste NHS resources like that.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41If you hadn't have tried to kick me out the second I showed up here,
0:33:41 > 0:33:43I wouldn't have had to.
0:33:43 > 0:33:46- Fine. I'll go.- Oh, sit down.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52I'm going to try your father again. What's the number?
0:33:52 > 0:33:55You really don't have a clue, do you?
0:33:55 > 0:33:57Why do you think I came here?
0:33:57 > 0:34:01Dad didn't show to collect me for the Easter holidays.
0:34:01 > 0:34:06What...Kofi left you for two weeks without a word?
0:34:06 > 0:34:09Well, I mean, he sent Auntie Irene to come and pick me up,
0:34:09 > 0:34:11but I hate her! She's so strict.
0:34:11 > 0:34:13All I got off Dad was some lame apology.
0:34:14 > 0:34:18Dad acts like he cares more about his work than he does about me.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22Like father, like son, I guess.
0:34:26 > 0:34:27It was dumb of me to come here.
0:34:27 > 0:34:30You haven't sent me a birthday card in, like, a decade.
0:34:30 > 0:34:31Why would you want to help?
0:34:35 > 0:34:41Look, I know that I may not have been the best father...
0:34:41 > 0:34:43grandfather...
0:34:43 > 0:34:48but even if I haven't been present in my family's lives...
0:34:49 > 0:34:52..they're always here in my mind.
0:34:53 > 0:34:57Cheesy. A bit cliche. Three out of ten.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01You're really not going to give me a break, are you?
0:35:03 > 0:35:07You know, Dad never said anything bad about you.
0:35:08 > 0:35:10He just said you were too busy saving lives.
0:35:12 > 0:35:14I wondered what everyone else had that we didn't.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21Look, here's my card. Take it.
0:35:23 > 0:35:25It's got all my numbers on it.
0:35:25 > 0:35:29Now that way, the next time you want to speak to me,
0:35:29 > 0:35:32you won't have to come down with a strange bout
0:35:32 > 0:35:34of phantom appendicitis.
0:35:38 > 0:35:40Like I'd want to speak to you again.
0:35:43 > 0:35:46Shall I call someone from the school to come and collect you?
0:35:51 > 0:35:54I just really miss my dad, that's all.
0:36:01 > 0:36:03Time to take him off bypass.
0:36:04 > 0:36:07You've been lucky so far. Let's hope it holds.
0:36:07 > 0:36:10Come on, come on...
0:36:14 > 0:36:15Internal paddles!
0:36:15 > 0:36:18Move. Starting internal massage. Charge ten joules.
0:36:23 > 0:36:24Clear.
0:36:26 > 0:36:28Shock.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34- I have to shock it again.- Wait.
0:36:37 > 0:36:39Charge to 20 joules.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42Clear.
0:36:42 > 0:36:44Shock.
0:36:47 > 0:36:49- It's not working.- Just be patient.
0:37:08 > 0:37:11- SHE SHOUTS:- Just, please, will you just stop?! Please!
0:37:11 > 0:37:13Laura, Laura, the time for talking now is over, OK?
0:37:13 > 0:37:16You're going to put me under, make me count backwards
0:37:16 > 0:37:18and then I'll never wake up again, I know I won't.
0:37:18 > 0:37:21Listen to me, your X-ray shows that your bowel is perforated.
0:37:21 > 0:37:23If I don't get you in there now you will die.
0:37:23 > 0:37:26I can't risk it, I've got so much I still want to do,
0:37:26 > 0:37:28just like Steve, and look what happened to him.
0:37:28 > 0:37:30Is this your husband Steve?
0:37:30 > 0:37:32He was only 52.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37It's not fair, is it?
0:37:38 > 0:37:40No, no, it's absolutely not fair...
0:37:45 > 0:37:47..but it would be doubly unfair
0:37:47 > 0:37:49if your family was to lose you, as well.
0:37:49 > 0:37:51I know what you're trying to do,
0:37:51 > 0:37:53I've heard all this before, remember?
0:37:53 > 0:37:55"Simple procedure. Home in no time."
0:37:55 > 0:37:59Obviously I wasn't your husband's doctor, but I am yours.
0:38:02 > 0:38:06To have your whole life thrown up in the air like that,
0:38:06 > 0:38:07at our age...
0:38:09 > 0:38:11..it's terribly disorientating.
0:38:13 > 0:38:15I mean, it's easy to be scared.
0:38:19 > 0:38:20I'm scared.
0:38:22 > 0:38:25It feels like everything scares me these days.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31To not be able to see the future
0:38:31 > 0:38:35is the most terrifying thing there is, but...
0:38:37 > 0:38:38I...
0:38:38 > 0:38:41I'm sorry I can't put this in a kinder way.
0:38:41 > 0:38:44If you don't let me help you...
0:38:44 > 0:38:45you won't have a future.
0:38:47 > 0:38:48It's as simple as that.
0:38:51 > 0:38:54And I don't think Steve would want that for you. Do you?
0:38:59 > 0:39:01So come on, let's be brave.
0:39:03 > 0:39:04Together.
0:39:18 > 0:39:21Glad to see you're as shocked as I am that that worked.
0:39:21 > 0:39:24You're right. I wasn't sure I could pull it off.
0:39:27 > 0:39:29But sometimes that's a place worth going to,
0:39:29 > 0:39:32with the right people by your side.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34If this is where you tell me you couldn't have done it without me...
0:39:34 > 0:39:38I wasn't. We would have muddled through somehow.
0:39:38 > 0:39:40But we're better together.
0:39:43 > 0:39:46You're the most infuriating, bloody-minded,
0:39:46 > 0:39:48gifted woman I've ever met.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54I never thought I'd fall for someone like you, but...
0:39:54 > 0:39:55Excellent work in there.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57If I may be so bold as to say so,
0:39:57 > 0:40:00you two seem to work rather well together.
0:40:00 > 0:40:04Perhaps you might like to reconsider your concerns, Ms Naylor?
0:40:14 > 0:40:17The matron from Darla's school has come to collect her.
0:40:17 > 0:40:18Full of apologies.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24She talked to me, you know.
0:40:25 > 0:40:30Wild horses wouldn't have kept her from spending time with you today.
0:40:31 > 0:40:34I don't know where she gets that kind of hard-headedness from.
0:40:37 > 0:40:42Perhaps I could have been a little more magnanimous with you today
0:40:42 > 0:40:45and your feminine intuition.
0:40:46 > 0:40:48Oh, forget it.
0:40:48 > 0:40:51I know you well enough not to take your judgements personally.
0:40:51 > 0:40:52Mm.
0:40:57 > 0:41:03You know, after a few weeks in Australia with Jess and Jacob...
0:41:04 > 0:41:06..he's my youngest grandson...
0:41:08 > 0:41:10..I couldn't wait to get back here.
0:41:12 > 0:41:15There's no shame in loving your job, Ric.
0:41:16 > 0:41:20Even at the cost of my relationships with my children?
0:41:20 > 0:41:21My grandchildren?
0:41:22 > 0:41:26Well, Darla doesn't seem to be under any illusions about you
0:41:26 > 0:41:29and she still wants to spend time with you.
0:41:29 > 0:41:32Play your cards right, that could be the sort of fresh start
0:41:32 > 0:41:34a lot of people would give their right arms for.
0:41:36 > 0:41:39Well, she's put in the legwork to find me.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42The least I can do is to keep in touch.
0:41:45 > 0:41:47And your son?
0:41:48 > 0:41:49That's trickier.
0:41:52 > 0:41:55I'm hardly the one to tell him to spend more time with his family.
0:41:58 > 0:42:02Well, the last time I checked, "Do as I say and not as I do,"
0:42:02 > 0:42:06was at the heart of every decent parenting manual.
0:42:06 > 0:42:09Oh, don't worry, I'm not giving up.
0:42:11 > 0:42:13Ask me again how things are in a few weeks.
0:42:18 > 0:42:22Ms Naylor! Can I have a word? It's about Sacha.
0:42:26 > 0:42:27She threw me out of theatre.
0:42:29 > 0:42:32I've been on that case all day. By your side every step.
0:42:33 > 0:42:34I know.
0:42:34 > 0:42:36It must have been difficult to take.
0:42:36 > 0:42:38Did Jimmy...?
0:42:41 > 0:42:42He's in recovery.
0:42:42 > 0:42:46- It'll be a slow one, but... - Oh, don't be modest.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50He came in here looking at weeks, you've given him years.
0:42:50 > 0:42:54You know, seeing what you've achieved today
0:42:54 > 0:42:56actually made me jealous. Can you believe that?
0:42:56 > 0:42:58- You were a part of it too. - Until I wasn't.
0:43:00 > 0:43:06And being part of it just doesn't seem like it's enough...any more.
0:43:11 > 0:43:15Look, the last thing I want to do is get in the middle of something here,
0:43:15 > 0:43:19but as far as Jac's concerned, you should watch your back.
0:43:21 > 0:43:22I'm married.
0:43:24 > 0:43:28The marriage is over, but Jac didn't know that.
0:43:28 > 0:43:29When she found out, she was...
0:43:31 > 0:43:33She was hurt.
0:43:33 > 0:43:35I don't blame her for being angry.
0:43:35 > 0:43:38It's a bit more than anger, don't you think?
0:43:38 > 0:43:43You asked me for career advice earlier, well, here it is.
0:43:43 > 0:43:46I've met surgeons like Jac before.
0:43:46 > 0:43:48Either you can handle being in their orbit
0:43:48 > 0:43:51and getting sucked into their games, or you can't.
0:43:51 > 0:43:56What if there is a more civilised way of running a department?
0:43:56 > 0:43:58Then get out now.
0:43:59 > 0:44:03There's plenty of places that could use a talent like you.
0:44:06 > 0:44:09When I was your age, I took a year out of cardio
0:44:09 > 0:44:12and took a posting in paediatrics.
0:44:12 > 0:44:14Let me guess. It changed you.
0:44:14 > 0:44:16Made you a better surgeon.
0:44:16 > 0:44:19No, it was hell. I hated every second.
0:44:19 > 0:44:22But sometimes it's healthy to spend a little time outside
0:44:22 > 0:44:23your comfort zone.
0:44:23 > 0:44:26If it feels right - take a leap.
0:44:32 > 0:44:35- Is that for me?- Sit down, Sacha.
0:44:35 > 0:44:38I won't, actually. I want you to explain exactly what this is.
0:44:39 > 0:44:41It's an intervention.
0:44:41 > 0:44:43Her idea - obviously.
0:44:43 > 0:44:45I see.
0:44:46 > 0:44:48What's she been saying about me?
0:44:48 > 0:44:51She's worried that you might be suffering from depression.
0:44:51 > 0:44:54And from what she's told me, I think she might be right.
0:44:56 > 0:44:57Depression?
0:44:58 > 0:45:01Why did you steal that bottle of wine earlier?
0:45:01 > 0:45:02I didn't. I explained it.
0:45:02 > 0:45:06Well, you tried. But your story didn't add up.
0:45:06 > 0:45:08You've been scattered and out of sorts all day.
0:45:08 > 0:45:11And there's what you said to Mrs Banner.
0:45:11 > 0:45:15I was trying to talk the woman into saving her own life,
0:45:15 > 0:45:16for heaven's sake!
0:45:16 > 0:45:18You talked about how terrifying it is
0:45:18 > 0:45:21to have your life thrown up in the air.
0:45:21 > 0:45:23That these days how you're scared of everything.
0:45:23 > 0:45:26It was just a turn of phrase. It doesn't mean I'm...
0:45:30 > 0:45:32Oh, God! This is ridiculous.
0:45:32 > 0:45:34Look, it's nothing to be ashamed of.
0:45:34 > 0:45:37The only shameful thing would be doing nothing about it.
0:45:44 > 0:45:46An NHS leaflet on depression?
0:45:47 > 0:45:51You look at the list of symptoms and tell me they don't apply to you.
0:45:51 > 0:45:54I think the symptoms of depression apply to most people,
0:45:54 > 0:45:57especially people sitting in this room.
0:45:57 > 0:45:59Except that's just my personality.
0:46:00 > 0:46:03But from the way she says you've been behaving
0:46:03 > 0:46:08and, I'm guessing, how you're feeling...
0:46:08 > 0:46:09it's just not you.
0:46:10 > 0:46:12I've spoken to occupational health
0:46:12 > 0:46:14and they can get you an appointment quicker
0:46:14 > 0:46:16- or we could go to your GP.- I can't.
0:46:17 > 0:46:19I can't get into this now.
0:46:21 > 0:46:23Is that it?
0:46:25 > 0:46:26No.
0:46:26 > 0:46:29MONITOR BEEPS
0:46:34 > 0:46:36This doesn't look like my idea of heaven.
0:46:38 > 0:46:42Sorry. You're stuck here with us for a little while longer.
0:46:42 > 0:46:44You're a genius.
0:46:44 > 0:46:46And you can get back to that after-school club
0:46:46 > 0:46:49once you've recovered,
0:46:49 > 0:46:51which could be a while.
0:46:52 > 0:46:54It's funny, isn't it?
0:46:56 > 0:46:59You spend all those years working, looking forward to retirement...
0:47:01 > 0:47:04..then you realise it's the work that's made you who you are.
0:47:08 > 0:47:11I can't teach kids any more.
0:47:11 > 0:47:12Not even one day a week.
0:47:16 > 0:47:18I've got the energy upstairs, but the body...
0:47:21 > 0:47:23This heart will last, what?
0:47:23 > 0:47:25Ten years, if you're lucky.
0:47:27 > 0:47:29Not a bad innings for a bloke my age.
0:47:32 > 0:47:37I can hear them, you know. The hearts.
0:47:38 > 0:47:43Both of them...going at it inside my chest there.
0:47:44 > 0:47:46You'll get used to it.
0:47:46 > 0:47:49And as the time goes on you'll get your old energy back.
0:47:51 > 0:47:52Maybe.
0:47:55 > 0:47:56But I've got to ask myself...
0:47:58 > 0:48:03..why keep harking back to the past...
0:48:05 > 0:48:09..trying to recapture something that's long gone?
0:48:10 > 0:48:13No, I need to let go of who I was...
0:48:18 > 0:48:21..and find out who I can be.
0:48:21 > 0:48:22A brave new world.
0:48:23 > 0:48:25Time to be honest with myself.
0:48:27 > 0:48:30And with everyone else.
0:48:32 > 0:48:34Excuse me.
0:48:34 > 0:48:38Kofi, hi, it's me...your father. I saw Darla today.
0:48:40 > 0:48:44She's quite a girl, she's a great credit to you.
0:48:47 > 0:48:52Look, I... I know that we haven't spoken in a while and...
0:48:54 > 0:48:56Well, that's probably my fault...
0:48:57 > 0:48:59..but I'd like to talk...
0:49:02 > 0:49:03..and if...
0:49:03 > 0:49:05If you want to...
0:49:06 > 0:49:10Well, I'm here. OK?
0:49:15 > 0:49:18We're much more alike than you care to admit, Jac.
0:49:18 > 0:49:23Strong-willed, we both have ambition, both have a past.
0:49:23 > 0:49:25If this is the part where you beg for forgiveness...
0:49:25 > 0:49:29I told you I'm not going to do that and I meant it -
0:49:29 > 0:49:32but I do want you to know how much I care about you.
0:49:32 > 0:49:35For us just to throw in the towel at the first hurdle...
0:49:35 > 0:49:38that's not the way we do things in theatre.
0:49:38 > 0:49:39Why do it that way outside?
0:49:42 > 0:49:45I told Ollie that I'm married and that the marriage is over.
0:49:46 > 0:49:50Pretty soon the whole hospital will know. I'm being honest.
0:49:50 > 0:49:51No more hiding.
0:49:52 > 0:49:54And that's supposed to be enough, is it?
0:49:57 > 0:49:59You wanted to know who I really am.
0:49:59 > 0:50:01Well, now you do.
0:50:01 > 0:50:02Now everyone does.
0:50:03 > 0:50:06Actually, they know the same about you as I do.
0:50:07 > 0:50:09Which is exactly what you what us to know.
0:50:11 > 0:50:14I don't particularly care about your wife...
0:50:15 > 0:50:19..but if I was to ask about her and your life together...
0:50:24 > 0:50:26It's not relevant.
0:50:27 > 0:50:29And there's my answer.
0:50:30 > 0:50:31This isn't honesty.
0:50:31 > 0:50:35This is the same routine you've been peddling since you came here.
0:50:35 > 0:50:38Which leaves me wondering, what else are you hiding?
0:50:47 > 0:50:48Cos'altro c'e da dire?
0:51:06 > 0:51:09- Mr Valentine, how can I help? - It's my CV.
0:51:09 > 0:51:12It's come to my attention that I'm missing some, um,
0:51:12 > 0:51:14general surgical experience.
0:51:14 > 0:51:17Well, that's hardly an insurmountable problem, is it,
0:51:17 > 0:51:19considering your extensive experience elsewhere?
0:51:19 > 0:51:24Still, I'd like to avoid running into problems down the line.
0:51:24 > 0:51:29I'd like to dot the Is, cross the Ts on my road to consultant.
0:51:29 > 0:51:34I see. And your solution to this problem would be what exactly?
0:51:34 > 0:51:38I've got a little favour to ask.
0:51:47 > 0:51:49I've just clocked off,
0:51:49 > 0:51:51but I'm not leaving till we sort this out.
0:51:54 > 0:51:57I know that you tried to steal that bottle of wine today.
0:51:57 > 0:51:59And I'm betting it's not the first time you've tried to do
0:51:59 > 0:52:01something like that.
0:52:02 > 0:52:04You were so amazing with Mrs Banner.
0:52:06 > 0:52:09You've got a bedside manner that most doctors would kill for
0:52:09 > 0:52:10in this hospital.
0:52:11 > 0:52:13So why can't you be that kind to yourself
0:52:13 > 0:52:15and admit that you need help?
0:52:17 > 0:52:19- Because I don't.- Sacha, please.
0:52:21 > 0:52:24Oh, just...
0:52:24 > 0:52:25Can you just leave me alone, please?
0:52:27 > 0:52:29What else have you stolen?
0:53:18 > 0:53:19I don't know what makes me.
0:53:21 > 0:53:23I mean, I can afford things.
0:53:28 > 0:53:33VOICE BREAKS: I just feel so empty. Just lost.
0:53:36 > 0:53:40It's like the world is spinning and I...
0:53:40 > 0:53:42I can barely cling on.
0:53:44 > 0:53:46You know, I...
0:53:48 > 0:53:50I steal things and the pain goes away.
0:53:52 > 0:53:54For a few minutes, just a few short minutes,
0:53:54 > 0:53:58and then this wave of shame takes over.
0:54:00 > 0:54:03And...it feels like I'm drowning.
0:54:15 > 0:54:18I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
0:54:26 > 0:54:31Here they are - the dream team back together again.
0:54:31 > 0:54:33You seem upbeat for a man who's resigned himself
0:54:33 > 0:54:36to a retirement filled with golf and sitting.
0:54:36 > 0:54:40You're kidding? I'm a scientific marvel.
0:54:40 > 0:54:42I've done an echocardiogram.
0:54:42 > 0:54:43More tests?
0:54:43 > 0:54:46We need to make sure that both your hearts are beating in synch.
0:54:46 > 0:54:49Me and Doctor Who, an elite club - two hearts.
0:54:49 > 0:54:53The last thing we want is them working against each other.
0:54:53 > 0:54:55And the results?
0:54:55 > 0:54:56They work in perfect harmony.
0:55:06 > 0:55:08Care to double check?
0:55:08 > 0:55:10No, I don't have time.
0:55:13 > 0:55:14I don't want to just pop a pill
0:55:14 > 0:55:16and pretend that none of this ever happened.
0:55:18 > 0:55:19You couldn't even if you wanted to.
0:55:22 > 0:55:25It's going to be a long road, with cognitive therapy
0:55:25 > 0:55:28and who knows what else -
0:55:28 > 0:55:32but the main this is that you're going to get help.
0:55:39 > 0:55:42I'm going to have to take all that stuff back, aren't I?
0:55:42 > 0:55:44That should be nice and mortifying.
0:55:44 > 0:55:47You're not the first person to shoplift with depression.
0:55:47 > 0:55:48Far from it, actually.
0:55:50 > 0:55:52I'm just really sorry that I didn't know
0:55:52 > 0:55:54there was anything wrong before now.
0:55:57 > 0:55:58Why?
0:56:00 > 0:56:02I didn't.
0:56:02 > 0:56:05This is the start of the way back.
0:56:06 > 0:56:09- Yeah?- Yeah.
0:56:11 > 0:56:12Yeah.
0:56:14 > 0:56:16- I've just spoken to Mr Hanssen. - There's no need.
0:56:16 > 0:56:20I've informed him that I'm willing to overlook what happened last week.
0:56:20 > 0:56:23Actually, we didn't talk about either of you. It's about me.
0:56:23 > 0:56:26You two may as well hear this now as well.
0:56:28 > 0:56:30Why do you look like you've dropped a tenner and picked up a pound?
0:56:30 > 0:56:32Because I'm hugely nervous
0:56:32 > 0:56:36- and I hope to hell I've done the right thing.- Done?
0:56:37 > 0:56:40As of tomorrow, I no longer work on Darwin.
0:56:40 > 0:56:43AAU is short-staffed and I'll be filling a gap down there.
0:56:44 > 0:56:46Don't be ridiculous, Oliver.
0:56:46 > 0:56:49I need general surgical experience if I'm going to make Consultant.
0:56:51 > 0:56:53Well, one phone call from me and that all goes away.
0:56:53 > 0:56:55Happens all the time. Shall we get back to work?
0:56:55 > 0:56:57Actually, no. I'm serious about this.
0:56:57 > 0:57:00- But you love Darwin.- Yes.
0:57:02 > 0:57:04But I just think it could be beneficial to try out
0:57:04 > 0:57:07a different way of doing things, that's all.
0:57:07 > 0:57:10You're a cardiothoracic surgeon, for goodness' sake.
0:57:10 > 0:57:13Why would you want to "try out" mending broken nails
0:57:13 > 0:57:16- and handing out aspirins? - Good for you.
0:57:16 > 0:57:19I hear Bernie's done wonderful things down in the trauma unit.
0:57:19 > 0:57:21She has. I'm excited.
0:57:21 > 0:57:23Are you really sure this is what you want?
0:57:26 > 0:57:27I'm taking a leap.
