0:00:01 > 0:00:04Fiona. Today, we harvest the peripheral nerve,
0:00:04 > 0:00:07which will act as an axonal conduit once we implant it into your spine.
0:00:07 > 0:00:09How long until we know if it worked?
0:00:09 > 0:00:13The stem cells need some time to make a home in your body.
0:00:13 > 0:00:17You weren't dealing with your family emergency, were you?
0:00:17 > 0:00:20You were dealing with mine.
0:00:20 > 0:00:24Mr Duval, meet Dr Nicky McKendrick. Dr McKendrick...
0:00:24 > 0:00:26It's all right, we met last night.
0:00:26 > 0:00:29Bet you hate this.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31Left on the scrap heap.
0:00:31 > 0:00:34Triamcinolone 40mg will knock that out for weeks.
0:00:34 > 0:00:36You can continue your work unhindered.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38No, I felt something.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41- No, that's not possible. It's too quick.- No, I felt something.
0:01:38 > 0:01:4007:32, 6th March 2018.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43Stem cell trial update.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47Following the positive advance with Patient One, Fiona Fawcett,
0:01:47 > 0:01:49selection is now underway for Patient Two.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52Confidence is high.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55We are close to repeating the success of Patient Zero,
0:01:55 > 0:01:57Laszlo Furz.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00The trial goal remains to improve the mobility
0:02:00 > 0:02:04and the lives of those suffering incurable and debilitating
0:02:04 > 0:02:08neurodegenerative disease, with patient care to the fore.
0:02:08 > 0:02:12First potential candidate: Patient A, male, 37,
0:02:12 > 0:02:14no obvious comorbidities,
0:02:14 > 0:02:18primary neurodegenerative condition with rapid onset paraplegia,
0:02:18 > 0:02:21suitable for nerve graft and stem cell treatment...
0:02:30 > 0:02:33SIREN WAILS
0:02:33 > 0:02:36HEAVY BREATHING
0:02:43 > 0:02:47- Oh, for heaven's sake.- Here. Let me. - Thank you.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49- Glad I've caught you.- Oh, yes?
0:02:49 > 0:02:52I was wondering what happened with the board. I haven't heard.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55The TMS? Have they signed it off?
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Roxanna, we discussed this last week.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00I told you, I'm really not the best person to put forward this proposal.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02But what about Professor Gaskell's statement?
0:03:02 > 0:03:03He didn't submit one.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05He promised faithfully he would.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08Well, you'll have to take that up with the messiah himself.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11Ms Campbell, Serena, you promised Ollie the hospital would
0:03:11 > 0:03:14put its full resources into ensuring his recovery.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16Things are starting to look hopeless.
0:03:16 > 0:03:20Believe me, I wish there was more we could do but my hands are tied.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22I'm sorry.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26She went into SVT around 40 minutes ago.
0:03:26 > 0:03:31BP 85 over 60, resps high at 30, pulse 126, sats 92%.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34- She's in a lot of pain... - Let's get her settled.
0:03:34 > 0:03:35Sorry.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38I'm her mum. She hasn't been right for days.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40She wouldn't let me call.
0:03:40 > 0:03:44Try not to worry. We're gonna look after her from now on.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47It's Fiona. Professor Gaskell's patient from the trial.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52HEAVY BREATHING
0:03:55 > 0:03:58You'll be giving Mr Tickle a run for his money.
0:03:58 > 0:03:59Sorry, what?
0:03:59 > 0:04:03All that stuff? Stretching your arms down to the floor?
0:04:03 > 0:04:04Never mind.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06I'm going to see Ric later.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08Good.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11- I wouldn't want him missing out on a visit.- No.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Just hope he understands why I can't go.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16I'm sure his solicitor's filled him in.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19I feel totally sick whenever I think about it.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21You had no option but to tell the truth.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23You've got to stand up in court.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25I've had another letter.
0:04:25 > 0:04:29- The trial starts in two weeks. - I know.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31Do you think his lawyers have done enough to get him off?
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Let's hope so.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Give him a big squeeze from me, eh?
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Long arms come in handy for some things.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43- LIFT:- Doors closing.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47She's on oxygen, I/V fluids and 5mg morphine for the pain.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50- Right.- We've got her more comfortable but she's still pyrexial.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53- I think it's an infection. - OK, thank you, you two.
0:04:53 > 0:04:54I'll take a look.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59Fiona, how are you feeling?
0:04:59 > 0:05:00Professor...
0:05:00 > 0:05:04Sorry, I should've come in a lot sooner...
0:05:04 > 0:05:07- It's OK, Fi. You're here now. - The whole team is here.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10- This is Lesley, Fiona's mum. - Hello, Lesley, I'm John.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12I assumed it was flu...
0:05:12 > 0:05:16The pain...fever...temperature of 103.
0:05:16 > 0:05:21- Have you taken any medication? - Paracetamol and fluids...lots of fluids.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23That's good.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29The sensation in my foot... I haven't felt it since...
0:05:29 > 0:05:31I must have imagined it.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34Look, let's just focus on getting you better.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36So stupid...to get ill.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39- She's worried she's letting you down.- That's impossible.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42But you chose me...
0:05:42 > 0:05:47You said you selected me...because I was strong.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50And you are. You are.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52We'll need to check the surgical wound.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Can you sit forward for me, Fiona?
0:06:02 > 0:06:04Seems to be healing.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09What is it? What's wrong?
0:06:09 > 0:06:12You have an infection. Dr Chowdhury was absolutely right.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16We'll run some tests to find the source. YOU need to rest.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23Check inflammatory markers, the usual bloods.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26Let's start her on meropenem and aciclovir.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28We've got this. She'll be fine.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30What about the implant? Can it still work?
0:06:30 > 0:06:32This is a disappointing setback. Not least for Fiona.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35But we'll find the problem, we'll deal with it,
0:06:35 > 0:06:38we'll get back on track.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41SHE HUMS A TUNE
0:06:41 > 0:06:44- Good morning, Dave! - Morning, Jac!
0:06:44 > 0:06:45- Morning, Michelle! - Morning...
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Morning, everyone!
0:06:47 > 0:06:51Ah! Ms Petrenko, lovely day.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55- Mr Fletcher...that's a nice tie! - Cheers.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57- Evie chose it. - Well, it matches your eyes.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00SHE HUMS A TUNE
0:07:00 > 0:07:03- You're humming!- Hmm? - That is a definite hum.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05That's Jason Donovan, right?
0:07:05 > 0:07:09# Too many broken hearts in the world... #
0:07:09 > 0:07:10Well, I happen to have two right here.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13- Mitral valve repairs. - Life in the fast lane.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15You sure you can cope?
0:07:15 > 0:07:17Why don't you scrub in and keep an eye on me?
0:07:17 > 0:07:20Oh, no, this tie - staying outside today.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Primed, ready and waiting for a crisis.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25You'll be wearing your underpants over your trousers next.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27- Is there anything I can help with? - Yes.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Mitral valves. Too tame?
0:07:29 > 0:07:30- Not at all.- Excellent.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32CTs, ECGs all round, please.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34SHE HUMS TUNE
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Have I stepped in to a parallel Darwin?
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Make sure you notify her GP that she's on her way home and remember
0:07:43 > 0:07:47she has early-stage dementia so she might be prone to walkabouts.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50- Better keep a close eye until she goes.- Will do, Ms Campbell.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52OK, mate. You take it easy and I'll be back to check on you shortly.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54- Everything all right? - Tip top.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57Good. I have an appointment that's going take me
0:07:57 > 0:08:01away from the hospital for a few hours. So you're in charge.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03I trust that's agreeable?
0:08:03 > 0:08:06Of course! Although yours are very big shoes to fill, obviously.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08You'll be fine.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17Nicky? Mr Thornley, here.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19Head injury. Under obs, four to six hours.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22- OK?- Fine, but Ms Campbell... - Just put me in charge.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25So, any problems, I'm all yours.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34Auntie Serena! Are you still visiting Ric today?
0:08:34 > 0:08:36- I am. - Please give him this.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39How...thoughtful.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41The prison guards will probably want to vet it
0:08:41 > 0:08:43but I don't think it says anything contentious.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45I'm sure it'll be fine.
0:08:45 > 0:08:49The lady's family are upset that she died and that's understandable.
0:08:49 > 0:08:53But prison should be for bad, dangerous people, not good
0:08:53 > 0:08:58people like Ric, who was just doing his best and got things a bit wrong.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Yes, well, this is really very sweet of you.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05Well, when I needed help and you were off finding yourself,
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Ric was there for me.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11He was, yes.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Got to run.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16HE LAUGHS
0:09:23 > 0:09:27LAUGHING: You should see this!
0:09:27 > 0:09:29Norway's best bloopers.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34HE LAUGHS HEARTILY
0:09:34 > 0:09:37It's good to see you smiling.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40- Ollie, I just wanted to update you. - On what?
0:09:40 > 0:09:43Remember I said we would start the TMS treatment next week?
0:09:43 > 0:09:46HE CONTINUES TO LAUGH
0:09:46 > 0:09:48I'm afraid we're gonna have to postpone.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50There's a delay on the finances.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53You know what the board can be like.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55How's it going?
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Lofty, have you seen this?
0:09:57 > 0:10:00Let's have a look.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03Oh, brilliant. Is that real?
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Yes!
0:10:05 > 0:10:08HE LAUGHS
0:10:11 > 0:10:14He's great with Ollie, isn't he?
0:10:14 > 0:10:15Who?
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Who? That nurse you've been mooning over all morning.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21- That's who. - I never moon, thank you.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24Not until a third date, at least.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27So I take it the second date went very well?
0:10:27 > 0:10:29Yeah.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33And?
0:10:33 > 0:10:36You know me. I'm not one to gossip.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39Oi! No, we had a really nice time.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42We went to this amazing Japanese restaurant.
0:10:42 > 0:10:46Lovely food, lovely wine and then he walked me home.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48Well, you can spare me the details.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51He didn't stay over, thank you very much.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53No, I think he was in early this morning, so...
0:10:53 > 0:10:55Yeah, I think he was, actually.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59Anyway, I've sent him a text saying I had a very lovely time
0:10:59 > 0:11:02and that we should do it again some time.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04Not that he's replied yet.
0:11:06 > 0:11:10You know you could just walk over there, maybe speak to him,
0:11:10 > 0:11:13face to face, in person.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15Don't be ridiculous.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18No, I'll just wait until he replies. When he's not so busy.
0:11:23 > 0:11:28Careful! Jeez, if I wasn't feeling ropey before, I certainly am now.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Good God, if it isn't Doctor Frost!
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Who saved your life.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36Sorry, is this where I'm meant to say, "Thank you"?
0:11:36 > 0:11:40Surprised you can remember. You were submerged in a bottle for most of the day.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42New man now.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Not that it's doing me much good.
0:11:44 > 0:11:45Ken!
0:11:45 > 0:11:49The whole welcoming committee. What joy.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52Almost didn't recognise you out of season, mate.
0:11:52 > 0:11:56- All right, OK, take it easy. - Suspected pericardial constriction.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59OK. Nice deep breath for me, please.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05HE GROANS Lean forwards.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Try and relax.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12OK and back.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15How long have you been having these chest pains?
0:12:15 > 0:12:17I don't know. Since I tripped and fell over the other week.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20- Not drunk, though. - Legs are a bit swollen.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23- Flatterer. - Mrs Khan's test results.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28OK.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31Let her down gently and prepare for a pericardiectomy.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33Nice!
0:12:33 > 0:12:35OK, Ken. We're gonna be prepping you for theatre.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38What, straight away? No waiting about for hours?
0:12:38 > 0:12:41Not while I'm running the show.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43Ho-ho-ho! Efficiency.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47Seem to remember, you could learn a thing or two from...
0:12:47 > 0:12:51Although that big grin is making me feel vaguely uneasy.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00Hey. Thought you could do with this.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03That's kind, thanks.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08SHE SIGHS I don't know whether to stay or...
0:13:08 > 0:13:11Usually when she's in hospital I go and clean her flat,
0:13:11 > 0:13:14fill her fridge and...wait.
0:13:14 > 0:13:18- That's the hardest part. - Fi always insists on going it alone.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22I can imagine. She's very independent.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26After her dad left, I worked all hours
0:13:26 > 0:13:30and she had to fend for herself.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33- Too much really. - Stood her in good stead.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39It was me that saw the trial advertised.
0:13:39 > 0:13:43- Was it?- I know Fi had got used to things as they were but...
0:13:43 > 0:13:45She's missed out on so much.
0:13:46 > 0:13:50We couldn't believe it when Professor Gaskell chose her.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56I know you'll look after her. The trial's so important.
0:13:56 > 0:14:00Right now, Fiona's health is our priority.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02We didn't think it would come to this.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04Speak for yourself...
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Hey, Fiona, how are you?
0:14:09 > 0:14:11The legs don't work...
0:14:11 > 0:14:13But there's nothing wrong with my ears.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18I read the Professor's papers...
0:14:19 > 0:14:20I knew...
0:14:20 > 0:14:24I knew what I was getting into...
0:14:24 > 0:14:27ALARM BEEPS, SHE HITS BUZZER
0:14:27 > 0:14:30- Oh, Fiona!- OK...- Fiona!
0:14:34 > 0:14:37KNOCK ON DOOR
0:14:37 > 0:14:39Sorry to interrupt.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42I heard the board hadn't received your statement
0:14:42 > 0:14:44- For what?- The TMS.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Oh, yeah...
0:14:46 > 0:14:49- John, time's running out.- I know.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51MESSAGE ALERT
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Fiona.
0:14:56 > 0:14:57Four of a kind.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00Ha-ha, ha! That's another win, isn't it ?
0:15:00 > 0:15:01You sure you shuffled?
0:15:01 > 0:15:04My motor skills aren't what they used to be.
0:15:04 > 0:15:07- Sorry to interrupt. - I know, I'm thrashing him anyway.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10Erm, Mrs King's ECG. Has it come back yet?
0:15:10 > 0:15:13- I got a bit distracted but I'll check.- Aw!
0:15:15 > 0:15:18- Did you get home OK last night? - Fine, yeah.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Yeah? Did you get a cab?
0:15:20 > 0:15:23Er, I didn't have to cos the bus came straight away.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25Cool. Good.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32ECG is in.
0:15:32 > 0:15:33Looks normal.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38Brilliant.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Thanks.
0:15:42 > 0:15:47Her white blood count is falling and inflammatory markers are up.
0:15:47 > 0:15:48The medication isn't working.
0:15:48 > 0:15:54ALT 105, alkaline phosphatase 276, gamma-GT 540.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57U&Es show early AKI.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02- Her immune system's breaking down. - Is her body rejecting the implant?
0:16:02 > 0:16:04This is awful.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06She had this procedure for the trial, not because she needed to.
0:16:06 > 0:16:09- None of us were expecting this. - We need to act quickly.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12Let's get her into surgery, reopen the wound and find the source of the infection.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14- I'll check theatres. - And page Ms MacMillan.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18I'd like her consultation given she assisted on the first surgery.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20ECG and CT as quick as you can.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28- We are preparing to operate. - Again?
0:17:28 > 0:17:31I think Fiona has some infected tissue which needs to be removed.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34What do you mean? From her last operation? The trial?
0:17:34 > 0:17:37- It's possible. - But that was weeks ago.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40Well, some strains take time to show up.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42- WHISPERING:- Sorry to interrupt. Excuse us.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Please.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47- Theatre's booked out for the next couple of hours.- With what?
0:17:47 > 0:17:48Ruptured AAA and a stoma revision.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51- We can't afford to delay.- I know.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53What about Darwin? Have they got a slot?
0:17:53 > 0:17:56You haven't the authority to override a consultant on a different ward.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58- I'll call Ms Campbell. - I've already tried her.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01She's out and can't be reached.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07Thanks for coming.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Donna would be here if she had any choice in the matter.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20I know.
0:18:20 > 0:18:24Oh, Ric...are you eating OK? I mean, can you sleep?
0:18:30 > 0:18:32Is the man who attacked you here?
0:18:32 > 0:18:34Transferred.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37Well, that must make things a little easier.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Plenty of others to take his place.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41You haven't been attacked again, have you?
0:18:41 > 0:18:44I'm getting better at keeping my head down.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49Well, at least it shouldn't be for too much longer.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53John Gaskell's come up trumps.
0:18:53 > 0:18:57Stuck his head out of his lab long enough to find you an expert witness.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00Far more eminent than the one your brief lined up.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02HE SIGHS
0:19:02 > 0:19:05Oh, come on now, that's meant to be good news.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08- An expert witness won't help. - Why not?
0:19:08 > 0:19:13One medical professional speaks out for another medical professional.
0:19:13 > 0:19:18- What does that look like? - He'll testify that your actions that day were entirely appropriate.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21Except that they weren't.
0:19:21 > 0:19:22Not entirely.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25Ric, you need to focus on the positives,
0:19:25 > 0:19:28on the things you did right.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30HE SIGHS
0:19:33 > 0:19:35Oh! Jason made you a card.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45They believe in you. We all do.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51Well... Tell Jason, thank you.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59If only I hadn't asked you to help.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04I have no regrets on that front.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Mr Davies' results are back.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Blood alcohol concentration is zero.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20He had scotch on a drip feed the last time he was here.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22Must have signed the pledge.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24It's amazing what a near death experience can do.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27Your, er, theatre nurse is here and ready to scrub in.
0:20:27 > 0:20:28Great, thank you.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31What, that's it? No third degree?
0:20:31 > 0:20:34No, "Where did she go to school? What did she have for breakfast?"
0:20:34 > 0:20:35I'm happy if you're happy.
0:20:35 > 0:20:39It appears we're under surveillance, Ms Naylor.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42- Just checking you're OK. - Why wouldn't I be?
0:20:42 > 0:20:45A pericardiectomy is more challenging than a mitral valve.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Thank you, Adrian. I am aware of the difference.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49Fortunately for Ken.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52- And, hello? I'm here? - Yeah, of course.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55Sorry, Ms Petrenko, could you let Ken know we're ready to go, please?
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Go on then. Spill it.
0:21:04 > 0:21:09What did you sprinkle on your muesli this morning? I'm not stupid.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11What did you do? Change your meds?
0:21:11 > 0:21:14Maybe the physio's just finally paying off.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16And...
0:21:16 > 0:21:20It's miraculous what a full five hours' kip can do for you.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23Mm, well, long may it continue.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29You've got an excellent legal team.
0:21:30 > 0:21:35With barely a case to argue and only two weeks to go.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38Get the jury on side and who knows what will happen?
0:21:39 > 0:21:42Ric, now is not the time to give up.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55I'm fighting a justice system that pits me against a colleague,
0:21:55 > 0:21:57against a friend.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00And to what end? I'm a surgeon.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04What good does it serve keeping me locked up in here?
0:22:04 > 0:22:07None. The whole thing is utter madness.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16- Will you do something for me, please?- Of course, anything.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20If, when the worst happens...
0:22:22 > 0:22:27..would you look out for Darla and Kofi, please?
0:22:34 > 0:22:37The constriction in Ken's pericardium will have been
0:22:37 > 0:22:38caused by the trauma when he fell.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41It's led to the pericardium getting stuck. Can you see?
0:22:41 > 0:22:43- PETRENKO:- Fascinating.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46Now to separate the pericardium from the heart. Scissors, please.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48Thank you. What follows, Ms Petrenko?
0:22:48 > 0:22:52Wire the breastbone together with the ribs and then close up.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Good.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56ALARM BEEPS Damn it. There's a tear in the atrium.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59It's bleeding out. No, it's too delicate. Glue, please.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04- BP dropping. - Suction, please.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07- Still bleeding. - Come on, Ken, Come on.
0:23:07 > 0:23:08BP still dropping.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10Ms Naylor, we have to get him on bypass now,
0:23:10 > 0:23:13- to keep his BP safe. - No, I'll plug the hole myself.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15With what?
0:23:15 > 0:23:18My finger will plug the tear while I suture around it.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23See? Easy-peasy.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26Incredible.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34I really appreciate you clearing your schedule.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37I don't suppose the world's eyes will be upon us this time.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39Rox, I've got to turn this around.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41You will. You always do.
0:23:43 > 0:23:44Yeah?
0:23:44 > 0:23:47- Theatre's gonna be at least another hour.- This is ridiculous.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49- By then, we're gonna be an anaesthetist down. - We'll get a locum in.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51That'll need authorisation.
0:23:51 > 0:23:52Can I not do that?
0:23:52 > 0:23:54According to Fletch, it has to be Ms Campbell.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57- Who's God knows where. - She's gone to visit Ric Griffin.
0:23:57 > 0:24:02- Unbelievable. - Fletch has left her a message. But I can call her again now.
0:24:02 > 0:24:03Is there some sort of hold up?
0:24:03 > 0:24:05Nothing that can't be fixed.
0:24:06 > 0:24:11I thought maybe you'd changed your mind, maybe Fi was improving.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14She's looking better, don't you think?
0:24:14 > 0:24:16There's been no improvement, alas.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19But once we get her into theatre...
0:24:19 > 0:24:22She's had so many operations and each one seems to make her worse.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25She has had a pretty challenging time of it.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28We appreciate that.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30What if this one goes wrong too?
0:24:30 > 0:24:33Well, there's an element of risk with any procedure.
0:24:33 > 0:24:34Can't you wait a bit longer?
0:24:34 > 0:24:36So the medication has time to work?
0:24:36 > 0:24:38Theatre is our only option now.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41MONITOR BEEPS STEADILY
0:24:43 > 0:24:46Is there anything else you'd like to ask?
0:24:50 > 0:24:51Do I have your support?
0:24:59 > 0:25:02What do you think Fiona would want?
0:25:03 > 0:25:06She'd want me to trust you.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09A hundred per cent.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Yes. No, that's fine - go ahead. Thank you.
0:25:14 > 0:25:18Auntie Serena! I have a very big bone to pick with you!
0:25:18 > 0:25:21I've been speaking to Lou in AAU.
0:25:21 > 0:25:25She told me Ric left the ward at 11.30am on the day his patient
0:25:25 > 0:25:27died - Monday, 2nd October, 2017.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32That was precisely the time and date he came to help me and Lola.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34It was, yes.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36So the lady died when Ric was helping us?
0:25:36 > 0:25:38No, she died later that night.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40- Oh, no, no! - It's all right!
0:25:40 > 0:25:42I'd better go to the police and explain.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45- No, you mustn't do that. - Why not? I'm going to be a dad.
0:25:45 > 0:25:49- I have to be responsible. - Because it wouldn't help Ric.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52But if the police knew why he left the lady, they might let him go.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54They wouldn't. There are other factors.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56She died because Ric was helping me instead of her.
0:25:56 > 0:25:59- No, she didn't.- She did. She must have.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01He was her doctor and he wasn't there.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Why else would he be in prison?
0:26:03 > 0:26:05Jason, listen to me.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08The main reason Elaine Warren died is
0:26:08 > 0:26:11because she didn't get the medication that Ric had prescribed.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13- Are you sure? - Quite sure.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17So there's absolutely nothing for you to worry about.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20I'm so glad you found yourself and came home.
0:26:23 > 0:26:27We need to get a move on now. Ms Campbell's given us the go-ahead.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29Fiona?
0:26:29 > 0:26:32What's happening? Where am I?
0:26:32 > 0:26:34- You're still in hospital. - We're taking you to theatre.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37Mum!
0:26:37 > 0:26:41You'll be OK. It'll be OK.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43- WHISPERING:- I'm scared. - I know...
0:26:43 > 0:26:44I know.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46I'll see you later, darling. You'll be OK.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52We're going to take very good care of her. OK?
0:27:01 > 0:27:04- Nicky? You done the bloods for bed six yet?- Yeah.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06Good, come and observe while I do the chest drain.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08See the master at work.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11OK, thanks. It's just...
0:27:11 > 0:27:13What?
0:27:13 > 0:27:15Mr Thornley's laceration, it needs suturing...
0:27:15 > 0:27:17I think.
0:27:17 > 0:27:18You think?
0:27:18 > 0:27:22Well, it was glued in the ED but it's dehiscing.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24Dr McKendrick, you need to breeze the bread and butter stuff.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27It's just with the glue, I don't want to make things worse and cause scarring.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29- Suturing should be second nature to you by now.- It is.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31But you want me to take a look?
0:27:31 > 0:27:33Or hold your handbag while you stitch?
0:27:35 > 0:27:38No! Not at all.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40I'm just telling you that's what I'll be doing.
0:27:40 > 0:27:42Then I'll assist with the chest drain.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44OK, great. Problem solved!

0:28:06 > 0:28:08Sample?
0:28:16 > 0:28:19I propose leaving the implant in-situ.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21But the infection might have infiltrated.
0:28:21 > 0:28:24It's situated to the right of the implant,
0:28:24 > 0:28:26around the intercostal artery.
0:28:26 > 0:28:30There was a bleed at the intercostal during the last procedure.
0:28:30 > 0:28:31Well remembered, Dr Chowdhury.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34I would err on the side of caution.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38You always do.
0:28:38 > 0:28:39Just an opinion.
0:28:39 > 0:28:43If I remove the implant, that ends the trial for Fiona.
0:28:43 > 0:28:45Your patient. Your decision.
0:28:49 > 0:28:54Then let's remove what looks abnormal and take it from there.

0:29:18 > 0:29:23but despite my very best efforts, you made it through.
0:29:23 > 0:29:25Super surgeon.
0:29:25 > 0:29:27Just my luck.
0:29:29 > 0:29:31Anyone we can call for you?
0:29:32 > 0:29:34Why don't you have a guess?
0:29:34 > 0:29:37You seemed to suss out my whole life last time.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41I'm glad to see you've stopped drinking.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47How's your wee girl doing?
0:29:48 > 0:29:49She's good, thanks.
0:29:49 > 0:29:54It pains me to say it but your Santa routine really made her Christmas.
0:29:54 > 0:29:57She must be so pleased to have you back home,
0:29:57 > 0:29:59running round after her...
0:30:00 > 0:30:03..so soon.
0:30:05 > 0:30:09Whatever you're on, darling. It's working a treat.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15I don't have a clue what you're talking about.
0:30:15 > 0:30:18- How is she doing? - BP 60/30, Sats 90.
0:30:19 > 0:30:21Nearly there. The area's clear.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25Ms MacMillan?
0:30:35 > 0:30:36It would be safer to remove everything.

0:31:08 > 0:31:10Everything OK?
0:31:10 > 0:31:12Yep.
0:31:12 > 0:31:14Taking a while.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18I'm finished now.
0:31:21 > 0:31:24Did you want to look at it?
0:31:24 > 0:31:26You delivered a baby the other week.
0:31:26 > 0:31:30Are you really telling me you don't have the belief to tie a knot?
0:31:30 > 0:31:33Sorry, I thought your job was to supervise.
0:31:37 > 0:31:39Supervise, yeah, not spoon feed.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44You are so patronising - I only asked if you wanted to check it.
0:31:44 > 0:31:46- Nicky, what if this was an emergency?- It isn't!
0:31:46 > 0:31:49- What if you had seconds to make a life-or-death decision?- I don't!
0:31:49 > 0:31:52This is the real world, love. It's time to grow a pair!
0:31:52 > 0:31:54Problem?
0:31:54 > 0:31:56No. All good.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58Sounded overly heated to me.
0:31:58 > 0:32:00Dr McKendrick?
0:32:03 > 0:32:06I've sutured a scalp laceration and it was a bit tricky
0:32:06 > 0:32:08because it was glued in the ED and was dehiscing...
0:32:08 > 0:32:10And I was just about to check it.
0:32:10 > 0:32:12Which bed?
0:32:12 > 0:32:14Four.

0:33:09 > 0:33:13Yeah. If Dr McKendrick had concerns, she was right to consult you.

0:33:20 > 0:33:23- more backbone. - I don't disagree.
0:33:23 > 0:33:25I've got backbone. It's him.
0:33:25 > 0:33:28- He treats me like I'm an idiot! - That's more like it.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31About time. She's been dithering all day.
0:33:31 > 0:33:33You need to model yourself on Ms Campbell.
0:33:33 > 0:33:34Smart and decisive.
0:33:36 > 0:33:37How flattering.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41You're a good doctor, Mr Duval.
0:33:41 > 0:33:46- Thank you.- But it was premature to leave you running my ward.
0:33:46 > 0:33:49Why? I run half the hospital on the night shift.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52Managing a ward, inspiring hearts and minds,
0:33:52 > 0:33:55is a COMPLETELY different ball game!
0:33:55 > 0:33:58Your F1 needed support and encouragement,
0:33:58 > 0:34:00which I too readily assumed you could provide.
0:34:00 > 0:34:02I made a mistake.
0:34:04 > 0:34:05People do.
0:34:18 > 0:34:20SHE GROANS
0:35:36 > 0:35:41- DEVICE BEEPS ON - 17:27, 6th of March, 2018.
0:35:41 > 0:35:42Stem cell trial update.
0:35:44 > 0:35:48Samples taken from Patient One show catastrophic cellular
0:35:48 > 0:35:50fragmentation.
0:35:50 > 0:35:52Reason for apoptosis - unidentified.
0:35:54 > 0:35:58Hypothesis - one, abnormal immune response in patient.
0:35:58 > 0:36:03Two, presence of as yet unknown factors in peripheral nerve conduit.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05Three, infection.
0:36:07 > 0:36:11In short, the implanted stem cells are dead
0:36:11 > 0:36:15and are the most likely cause of the infection which has caused
0:36:15 > 0:36:17multi-organ failure in patient.
0:36:19 > 0:36:23This stage of the trial has failed.
0:36:25 > 0:36:26HE SIGHS
0:36:29 > 0:36:31KNOCK ON DOOR
0:36:31 > 0:36:34- Essie... - Sorry to interrupt.
0:36:34 > 0:36:36Is there a problem?
0:36:36 > 0:36:37Er, I just needed to know,
0:36:37 > 0:36:39any clues as to what's caused the infection?
0:36:39 > 0:36:41Not yet.
0:36:42 > 0:36:46- Could it be the implant? - That's unlikely.
0:36:47 > 0:36:50Most probably it's something post-op.
0:36:50 > 0:36:54Obviously we'll know more when we identify the strain of bacteria.
0:36:54 > 0:36:57Poor Fiona. She wasn't expecting this.
0:36:57 > 0:36:58Well, none of us were.
0:36:58 > 0:37:02So, er, what does this mean for the trial?
0:37:02 > 0:37:05Well, naturally, we need to find the source of the trouble
0:37:05 > 0:37:08so we can ensure it doesn't happen again.
0:37:08 > 0:37:10- So we carry on? - Yes. Absolutely.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13Patient care to the fore, as usual.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15What about Fiona? Surely this is over for her?
0:37:15 > 0:37:18Well, if we can just get her through recovery,
0:37:18 > 0:37:21I'm confident the implant will still work.
0:37:21 > 0:37:23- That's a relief.- Yeah.
0:37:25 > 0:37:28Look, would you mind popping back to ITU, keep an eye on Dr Chowdhury?
0:37:28 > 0:37:30Yeah. Yeah, of course.
0:37:30 > 0:37:33It's been a rough day for her... For all of us.
0:37:52 > 0:37:54So, did he guess?
0:37:54 > 0:37:55Who, Ken?
0:37:55 > 0:37:58Ken? I mean Fletch.
0:37:58 > 0:38:02No. Fletch thinks I'm OD-ing on physio and sleep.
0:38:02 > 0:38:04He seemed overly curious to me.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08Are you thinking of telling him?
0:38:08 > 0:38:10Don't be ridiculous.
0:38:10 > 0:38:12He'd get his knickers in a right twist.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15Jac, I gave you that shot off the books and I won't do it again.
0:38:15 > 0:38:17- It was a risk.- I know.
0:38:17 > 0:38:19So you need to deal with the pain properly
0:38:19 > 0:38:21and find a long-term solution.
0:38:25 > 0:38:28MONITOR BEEPS STEADILY
0:38:31 > 0:38:33Is it all right to hold her hand?
0:38:33 > 0:38:34Course.
0:38:36 > 0:38:38Reminds me of when she was a baby.
0:38:39 > 0:38:44I didn't dare turn my back in case she stopped breathing.
0:38:44 > 0:38:46HIGHER-PITCHED BEEP
0:38:47 > 0:38:50- WHISPERS:- Page Professor Gaskell.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57Never had you down as a five-a-day kind of guy.
0:38:58 > 0:39:02- Looks can be deceiving. - In your case, I think not.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04I'm only doing it for me old Ma.
0:39:04 > 0:39:05To stop the nagging.
0:39:05 > 0:39:09Well, a few vitamins certainly won't hurt your recovery.
0:39:09 > 0:39:14Can't be something we're not though, can we? Not forever.
0:39:16 > 0:39:20Uh-oh, paranoia's kicking in.
0:39:22 > 0:39:24ALARM SOUNDS
0:39:24 > 0:39:27- She's in VF.- OK, Lesley, let's move you out of the way
0:39:27 > 0:39:30- so that Professor Gaskell can do his job, please.- No, no...
0:39:30 > 0:39:32- I can't feel a pulse!- Defibrillate. - Charging to 150.
0:39:33 > 0:39:36Come on, Fiona.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39Stand clear. Shocking...
0:39:39 > 0:39:41- No output.- Again!- Charging to 150.
0:39:41 > 0:39:43- WHISPERS:- Stay with us!
0:39:43 > 0:39:46Stand clear. Shocking...
0:39:46 > 0:39:48- No output.- Again!
0:39:48 > 0:39:50Charging to 200.
0:39:51 > 0:39:55Stand clear. Shocking...
0:39:55 > 0:39:57No output.
0:39:57 > 0:39:59CONTINUOUS BEEP SOUNDS
0:40:04 > 0:40:06HE CONTINUES CHEST COMPRESSIONS
0:40:15 > 0:40:18SOUND DISTORTS
0:40:29 > 0:40:31CONTINUOUS BEEP SOUNDS
0:40:31 > 0:40:32Professor...
0:40:38 > 0:40:41I think we should stop.
0:40:44 > 0:40:48John. Stop.
0:40:55 > 0:40:56Dr Chowdhury, do you agree?
0:40:57 > 0:40:59Yes.
0:41:05 > 0:41:06Time of death, 1813 hours.
0:41:08 > 0:41:11BEEP CONTINUES
0:41:23 > 0:41:26BEEP FADES TO SILENCE
0:41:41 > 0:41:45What were you and Frieda talking about?
0:41:45 > 0:41:47Er... Just how well you did in theatre.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49You know, so, chill. Take it as a compliment.
0:41:49 > 0:41:52- Oh. Right. - You made me feel bad.
0:41:52 > 0:41:55- Why? - I've been taking the mick all day.
0:41:55 > 0:41:58I know how hard you've worked in physio.
0:41:58 > 0:42:01And if you feel like you're back on form then THAT -
0:42:01 > 0:42:04- is brilliant. - Well, it's not just...me.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06And modesty too? Blimey, I've seen it all today.
0:42:07 > 0:42:09I'm really proud of you.
0:42:17 > 0:42:19I get it.
0:42:19 > 0:42:21You really don't.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48Lesley... I am so sorry.
0:42:49 > 0:42:52We did all we could.
0:42:52 > 0:42:55Her organs were just too badly damaged by the infection.
0:42:58 > 0:43:01You know, when I read about your trial,
0:43:01 > 0:43:04all I could think about was seeing her walk.
0:43:05 > 0:43:08Seeing her back how she was.
0:43:08 > 0:43:10Before...
0:43:12 > 0:43:16I went...on and on at her.
0:43:19 > 0:43:21"Fi, give it a go.
0:43:22 > 0:43:25"You've got nothing to lose."
0:43:28 > 0:43:31I never thought...
0:43:31 > 0:43:34I didn't think of the risks.
0:43:41 > 0:43:43Is there someone we can call?
0:43:45 > 0:43:48Look, If there's ever anything I can do...
0:43:51 > 0:43:54I wish that I was religious.
0:43:54 > 0:43:57So that I could believe that this wasn't the end.
0:44:01 > 0:44:03Me too.
0:44:07 > 0:44:09It's as if a light's gone out.
0:44:09 > 0:44:11Like he's given up.
0:44:12 > 0:44:14Poor Ric.
0:44:14 > 0:44:17I dread to think what will happen if he has to stay there longer.
0:44:17 > 0:44:19You don't seriously think he's gonna go down for this?
0:44:19 > 0:44:21He does.
0:44:21 > 0:44:23I haven't helped, have I?
0:44:23 > 0:44:26Let's focus on what action we CAN take.
0:44:26 > 0:44:28There's only two weeks till the trial.
0:44:28 > 0:44:31Yeah, we need to find concrete proof that Ric only left the ward
0:44:31 > 0:44:33- once everything was under control. - We've tried.
0:44:33 > 0:44:36Yes, I know but if he didn't give the anti-coagulant order to Donna,
0:44:36 > 0:44:39- then he must have given it to someone else. - Who? Nobody's owned up.
0:44:39 > 0:44:42I've already checked with every single person that was
0:44:42 > 0:44:45- working that shift on AAU. - What about other departments?
0:44:45 > 0:44:49- Hospital staff pass through AAU all of the time.- No. The police cross-checked every rota.
0:44:49 > 0:44:52So anyone that went through AAU on that day has been interviewed.
0:44:52 > 0:44:55It could be any one of us in that prison.
0:44:55 > 0:44:56We have to put this right.
0:44:56 > 0:44:59We've only got staffing rotas and timesheets to go on.
0:44:59 > 0:45:02How about members of staff who were technically on duty?
0:45:02 > 0:45:04What would they have been doing on the ward?
0:45:04 > 0:45:07- Overtime?- No. Checked it. - Visiting?
0:45:07 > 0:45:09Nope. There's no records.
0:45:12 > 0:45:17Training? Has anyone checked the training logs?
0:45:33 > 0:45:35We lost Fiona.
0:45:35 > 0:45:36I'm sorry.
0:45:41 > 0:45:43So, where does this leave the trial?
0:45:48 > 0:45:51The trial continues as planned.
0:45:54 > 0:45:56With lessons learnt, of course.
0:45:59 > 0:46:03I doubt removing the implant would've changed the outcome.
0:46:08 > 0:46:11I've been doing some thinking.
0:46:11 > 0:46:14About this TMS of yours.
0:46:14 > 0:46:17If I could authorise the purchase of that machine myself, I would.
0:46:17 > 0:46:19Seems the only power in this hospital is
0:46:19 > 0:46:22a seat at the round table.
0:46:22 > 0:46:24You wouldn't be interested in the board, would you?
0:46:24 > 0:46:26No way.
0:46:26 > 0:46:30You'd be much better suited to that kind of thing.
0:46:30 > 0:46:32You think that's a good idea?
0:46:33 > 0:46:35Why, would you want to?
0:46:35 > 0:46:38If it meant you and me could access theatres and equipment
0:46:38 > 0:46:41when we wanted, why not?
0:46:42 > 0:46:45The Director of Medicine post is available.
0:46:46 > 0:46:48You could discuss it with Serena.
0:46:48 > 0:46:50She's overloaded as it is.
0:46:50 > 0:46:52And quite rightly,
0:46:52 > 0:46:54she's postponing key decisions out of deference to Henrik.
0:46:54 > 0:46:57- So call him first.- No...
0:46:59 > 0:47:01He's on compassionate leave.
0:47:09 > 0:47:11I could call him, if you like.
0:47:11 > 0:47:14Well, I suppose it would seem less formal.
0:47:15 > 0:47:18If the post is absolutely what you want?
0:47:20 > 0:47:22I just want what's best for my patients.
0:47:34 > 0:47:37See you tomorrow, then. And no grapes, mind.
0:47:37 > 0:47:40Chocolate, yes. Grapes, no. Chocolate - very good for the heart.
0:47:40 > 0:47:43The doctor's here and she agrees.
0:47:43 > 0:47:46All right, see you tomorrow. Bye-bye
0:47:46 > 0:47:49- Visitors?- Mother.
0:47:49 > 0:47:50On her way down on the train.
0:47:52 > 0:47:54- Well, take care, then.- Yes.
0:47:54 > 0:47:57You too, Ms Naylor.
0:48:01 > 0:48:04- Night.- Night.
0:48:10 > 0:48:13SIREN APPROACHES
0:48:23 > 0:48:26- Henrik, thank you for coming. - That's quite all right.
0:48:27 > 0:48:30How can I help?
0:48:30 > 0:48:33Right, John and I were thinking.
0:48:33 > 0:48:36The way things are, it might be helpful for him
0:48:36 > 0:48:38to have a seat on the board.
0:48:38 > 0:48:40In what capacity?
0:48:40 > 0:48:42Director of Medicine.
0:48:42 > 0:48:44Meetings, paperwork.
0:48:44 > 0:48:46Hardly John's field of expertise, is it?
0:48:46 > 0:48:48No, but he'd have more influence.
0:48:48 > 0:48:52- At the expense of his research? - In order to help his research.
0:48:52 > 0:48:54More autonomy. More access to resources.
0:48:54 > 0:48:56Without you at the helm,
0:48:56 > 0:48:59he could assist Ms Campbell with the workload.
0:48:59 > 0:49:01Unless of course you were thinking of coming back...
0:49:01 > 0:49:02Fine.
0:49:02 > 0:49:05Ms Campbell would have to agree, though.
0:49:05 > 0:49:06Are you sure?
0:49:06 > 0:49:09If you think it's in the best interests of the hospital,
0:49:09 > 0:49:12then I trust your judgement completely.
0:49:12 > 0:49:15Perhaps you should take some time to think it through.
0:49:15 > 0:49:18Roxanna, if you're happy to fight John's corner,
0:49:18 > 0:49:20that's enough for me.
0:49:22 > 0:49:26Things may not be quite the same by the time you get back.
0:49:26 > 0:49:28So be it.
0:49:33 > 0:49:36Well, it's...unexpected.
0:49:36 > 0:49:38I knew you wouldn't want to make such a such a key decision
0:49:38 > 0:49:40without Henrik's approval.
0:49:40 > 0:49:43So Roxanna took the liberty of talking to him in advance.
0:49:43 > 0:49:45He's happy if you're happy.
0:49:45 > 0:49:49Did Henrik give any indication when he might be coming back?
0:49:49 > 0:49:51No. Unfortunately.
0:49:51 > 0:49:56In his absence, the board needs medics like us, Serena.
0:49:56 > 0:49:58Do-ers who know the coalface.
0:49:58 > 0:50:00I don't get my hands grubby nearly enough these days.
0:50:00 > 0:50:02This is where I can help, you see?
0:50:02 > 0:50:04What would it mean for your research?
0:50:04 > 0:50:08I don't see why the two roles can't run alongside.
0:50:09 > 0:50:12I was very sorry to hear about your patient, by the way.
0:50:12 > 0:50:15That must have been a blow for you. Personally as well as for the trial.
0:50:15 > 0:50:18- The trial continues as planned. - Without a review?
0:50:18 > 0:50:20There'll be a post-mortem, naturally,
0:50:20 > 0:50:25but the signs are that the patient, sadly, succumbed to an infection.
0:50:25 > 0:50:27Is there a link to the implant?
0:50:27 > 0:50:29Too soon to say.
0:50:29 > 0:50:33The admin delays, getting to theatre, didn't exactly help us
0:50:33 > 0:50:37turn it around. But if I have the power to approve, it would be less
0:50:37 > 0:50:39weight on your shoulders.
0:50:41 > 0:50:44Think about poor Mr Griffin, this is outrageous.
0:50:44 > 0:50:46Quite.
0:50:46 > 0:50:49These kinds of accusations will only increase.
0:50:49 > 0:50:52Budget restrictions, staff cuts.
0:50:52 > 0:50:54Mistakes are going to be made. We need to be ready.
0:50:54 > 0:50:57Well, I certainly can't say no to another firefighter.
0:50:57 > 0:51:01My first priority would be to ensure that Ms MacMillan can proceed
0:51:01 > 0:51:03with her TMS project.
0:51:05 > 0:51:08I hear the board are difficult to persuade.
0:51:09 > 0:51:14Why don't we discuss the details later over a drink?
0:51:14 > 0:51:16Hm! Reading my mind already.
0:51:17 > 0:51:19I'll sign his discharge papers.
0:51:19 > 0:51:21I'll get transport sorted to get him home.
0:51:21 > 0:51:23Great, thank you.
0:51:30 > 0:51:32Let me guess.
0:51:32 > 0:51:34No reply?
0:51:35 > 0:51:37Sacha, I don't play games.
0:51:39 > 0:51:41I'm done.
0:51:41 > 0:51:43Enough.
0:51:49 > 0:51:51I reckon we can put a smile back on that face.
0:51:51 > 0:51:53Taken up miracle-working?
0:51:53 > 0:51:55No. We've been through all of the training logs.
0:51:55 > 0:51:58Monday, the 2nd of October, 2017. The day Elaine Warren died -
0:51:58 > 0:52:01there was a trauma course for nurses.
0:52:01 > 0:52:03- Right? - The list of participants here.
0:52:03 > 0:52:06And one nurse does stand out. Amira Zafar.
0:52:06 > 0:52:08Why? What's her connection?
0:52:08 > 0:52:09Well, soon as I saw her name, it clicked.
0:52:09 > 0:52:12I remember her telling me that she was working on AAU
0:52:12 > 0:52:14when it was manic. The consultant was run ragged
0:52:14 > 0:52:16and then some poor woman ended up dying.
0:52:16 > 0:52:19I've double-checked and Elaine Warren's was the only death in AAU that day.
0:52:19 > 0:52:23- Did the police speak to her? - I doubt it because they haven't got the training logs.
0:52:23 > 0:52:25- Does she still work here? - Agency.
0:52:25 > 0:52:27But don't worry, we're going to track her down.
0:52:27 > 0:52:29Good work.
0:52:29 > 0:52:32SIREN WAILS
0:52:38 > 0:52:40I had a brilliant time last night.
0:52:40 > 0:52:42Do you fancy doing something at the weekend?
0:52:44 > 0:52:48Well, you've ignored my message and pretty much blanked me all day.
0:52:51 > 0:52:53Dom, what's wrong?
0:52:56 > 0:52:59Why didn't you wanna come and stay last night?
0:52:59 > 0:53:02Because last time was so amazing but it all fell apart.
0:53:02 > 0:53:04So I thought it'd be nice to take it slow.
0:53:04 > 0:53:07I'm sorry. We should've talked about it.
0:53:07 > 0:53:10And I didn't reply to your message because we had a great night
0:53:10 > 0:53:12and I thought that was obvious?
0:53:14 > 0:53:16It was.
0:53:19 > 0:53:23I'm sorry... Old wounds.
0:53:25 > 0:53:27I'm not him.
0:53:29 > 0:53:31I know.
0:53:41 > 0:53:43Come on.
0:54:06 > 0:54:08All right?
0:54:09 > 0:54:11Yeah.
0:54:14 > 0:54:17- Nicky...- Please...
0:54:18 > 0:54:22Please can we just forget today?
0:54:22 > 0:54:25Look, I know you think I'm a...
0:54:28 > 0:54:32I just wanted to say, I do know what it's like to feel...
0:54:36 > 0:54:38..not up to scratch.
0:54:39 > 0:54:41OK?
0:54:41 > 0:54:46So, if I have been too tough on you, then...
0:54:48 > 0:54:51..I'll ease off.
0:54:52 > 0:54:55Cheers.
0:54:58 > 0:55:00So, we're all good, yeah?
0:55:04 > 0:55:06Yeah.
0:55:16 > 0:55:18Same again, please.
0:55:18 > 0:55:20Not for me, John. I'm about to go.
0:55:20 > 0:55:24- Will you call Henrik and tell him that Serena agreed?- Yeah.
0:55:24 > 0:55:26And how much we miss him.
0:55:26 > 0:55:28I don't want him thinking there isn't a place for him here.
0:55:28 > 0:55:31He'll be back soon enough calling the shots.
0:55:31 > 0:55:34He's like the rest of us. Lost without a stethoscope.
0:55:36 > 0:55:40Ah, lovely - look forward to that!
0:55:42 > 0:55:44- Here.- Oh, thank you.
0:55:45 > 0:55:49- I can't stay. - Pity. I was just warming up.
0:55:51 > 0:55:53Why don't we meet tomorrow, first thing?
0:55:53 > 0:55:57- In your office. - I look forward to it.
0:55:59 > 0:56:03Our Director of Medicine. My new partner in crime.
0:56:03 > 0:56:05Does Bernie know?
0:56:05 > 0:56:07I wish she was here.
0:56:07 > 0:56:09I know you do.
0:56:09 > 0:56:13Between you and me, I'd cheerfully hand Gaskell the whole show.
0:56:13 > 0:56:14You don't mean that.
0:56:14 > 0:56:17Oh, I'm fed up with the boardroom, believe me.
0:56:17 > 0:56:20Well, Hanssen needs you there. And to be honest, we all do.
0:56:22 > 0:56:26More importantly, how did you get on tracking down that nurse?
0:56:26 > 0:56:29Ah... Well, seems like she's left nursing.
0:56:29 > 0:56:32- I mean, she was never really cut out...- Where is she now?
0:56:32 > 0:56:33Not exactly sure.
0:56:33 > 0:56:36It's going to be a bit more of a challenge than I thought
0:56:36 > 0:56:38but we'll get there.
0:56:39 > 0:56:41To Ric.
0:56:42 > 0:56:44To Ric.
