All language subtitles for The Royal s05e03 Thinking Too Hard

I need someone in my life. I need a girl
to hold me tight.

Someone to make me feel, make me feel
all right.

Somebody help me, yeah.

Somebody help me now.

Won't somebody tell me what I've done
wrong?

Sounds pretty bad.

Okay, leave it to me, Doc. I'll get it
there in no time.

I thought he was working on the wards.

Good morning.

Dr. Omerod is still not back to fitness.
He obviously needs Frankie's

assistance.

Is that a problem?

No, not at all. I'm just trying to
figure out who does what around here.

Oh, I'm sure you'll find everything's
under control.

No need for change, just for the sake of
it.

Not my style, Matron.

Not just for the sake of it.

There you go, Doc.

On second thought, just put the bag in.

I'll drive.

Is, um, is that a good idea?

I'm not an animal.

Okay. How's Charlie sleeping now?

Not bad.

Yeah, much better.

Really? You don't look like you've been
getting much better.

Neither of you do.

Well, it varies.

Even at the moment, it's no problem.

Right.

Well, he is a little underweight.

Try him my best.

I love him. I'll die if I lose him.

You won't let that happen, will you?

It's not my decision, Joanna.

We'll have to wait and see what the
court decides.

Yeah, but they'll listen to you.

You can make them see Charlie should
stay with me.

Don't worry.

I'll tell them.

Loud music.

Phone bill going through the roof. I've
got to make an appointment to get into

the bathroom.

Tell you what, Alan, between you and me,
I'll be leaving now unless he finds

another block and settles down.

Morning, Jack.

Lovely day for it.

What? A little of what you fancy,
whatever that may be.

Either of you got a caravan?

No. Good.

I've just spent the best part of an hour
looking at the back end of one. If God

had wanted us to take our house on
holiday, he'd have made a short, fat and

slimy with a shell on our back. Am I
right?

Well, I prefer a B &B, myself.

There you go.

Teddy Catspaw, by the way.

Offer supplies.

Nice to meet you, Teddy.

I'm Ken, this is Alan.

Excellent. See you later, lads. Be
lucky.

Right.

Come on, Ali.

Hello?

Anyone at home?

You have to make a bit more of an
effort, Gavin.

You don't want anything completely
useless.

I'm trying. Don't I? No way.

Can I help?

I'll see.

Teddy Catchpole.

PC. My friends call me Top Cat.

What did they call you?

I don't know. I've never met your
friends.

Sharp as a tack.

I like that.

Is it Mr.

Harper about?

Doctor, hurry, please.

All right, Bill.

Bill, can you hear me, mate?

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

Wait here, please.

Leave this to us.

You're all right, mate.

Doc's here now.

Come on, Bill, you'll be fine.

Doc?

Doc, what do we do now?

Help him, please.

All right.

OK, Frankie, give me my bag.

Don't worry, Bill.

We're going to get you out of here.

Well, Joanna's only 17.

It's a lot for her to deal with.

Her boyfriend's a little older, but he's
totally overwhelmed by the situation.

It's his mother who replied for custody.

Ah.

She and Joanna don't exactly see eye to
eye.

I'm going to go round there this
morning, see if there's any way they can

things up.

When is the case due to be heard?

Tomorrow.

Well, all you can do is give
professional opinion.

You're not passing judgment.

You

say

you saw what happened?

Yeah, but it doesn't make any sense.

It took me beard up to one side for no
reason.

What do you think, Doc? Heart attack?

I don't think so.

You can smell it on his breath.

He's been drinking.

All right, Bill. Won't be long now.

OK, let's get him into the ambulance.

I've never had a day's illness in my
life.

Well, George, you're the one who wanted
to come here.

We're going to be here all day if you
beat about the bush.

OK, so, um...

What seems to be the problem?

A few aches and pains recently.

Feeling tired, you know, that sort of
thing.

I was just hoping that you'd simply be
able to give me something that would get

me firing on all cylinders again.

He's just a bit worked up at the moment,
that's all it is.

He's letting it all get to him, but he
doesn't like to admit it.

Sorry, letting what all get to him?

His new club, Raleigh Street.

Yeah, it opens tomorrow night.

Oh, I see, you own a club, do you?

Yeah, and half a dozen pubs around here.

Everyone knows George Guthrie.

OK, well, I will take some blood. I'll
see what that throws up, but I'm sure

you'll feel a lot better after you've
got tomorrow out the way.

That's what I said.

Men.

We'll trouble them there, won't they?

Good morning, Mrs. Maddington.

I was wondering if we could have...
You're wasting your time, Dr. Goodwin.

Well, I don't think so.

It won't change anything.

I gave that girl a roof over her head
when her parents wouldn't have anything

do with her.

I know what she's like.

I understand that things were difficult
when Joanna was loving you.

Well, she'd just had a baby.

She hadn't got a clue.

I tried to help her, but she wouldn't
listen.

I don't know what Gavin was thinking of
when he took up with her.

He'll regret it.

They're a young couple.

They're finding their way.

Perhaps they can find their way to the
church one day.

None of this has been easy.

I applied for custody because Joanna
can't cope.

I'm not trying to break the family up.

I told her she could move back in here
any time.

What did she say to that?

I'll spare you the expletives.

I can't stand by and watch my grandson
suffer, Doctor, I can't.

And I won't.

Likes a snifter on the job, does he?

Before breakfast, too?

More than a snifter. He passed out at
the wheel.

Both of his legs were trapped. His right
foot's ischemic.

Stone cold.

No pulse in the foot.

Nothing from the popliteal.

Hmm.

Healthy femoral, though.

Popliteal artery could be crushed. I
need to explore the popliteal space.

Well, prepare for theatre, Dr. Romerod.
No time to waste.

A lot of dirty abrasions around the
knees and thighs.

Can I rely on you to sort out the
tetanus status?

Of course you can. I'm not a complete
fool.

Doc, are you all right? Of course.

It's just you don't seem to be yourself.

Don't get above yourself, Frankie.

Driving me on my rounds a few times
doesn't give you the right to question

performance. And you certainly don't
have the medical expertise.

There's nothing wrong with me that
getting rid of this blasted steak won't

Is that clear?

Yes, sir. Good.

All right, son.

How's it going?

Getting there.

That looks good.

Oh, you like it?

Oh, by the way, the printers phoned.
They'll deliver the leaflets next week,

agreed. What do you mean, next week?

We need them for tomorrow.

They said that's the date you told them.

Oh, that's great.

As if I didn't have enough to worry
about.

This isn't my mix -up, George.

What's the matter? Not off to the job?

Don't talk to her like that.

Oh, here we go. She makes a mess of
things and you have a go at me. Thanks,

I'll sort it all out, I promise you.

Shall we have a look inside?

Oh, just give me a minute.

I'd better go and check on that lot.

George!

A fully coordinated system.

That's what you need.

Think of this office as the nerve
centre, and you're at the heart of it,

I can help you, if you let me.

Oh, go on, then.

Right, I'll leave you to it, then.

Let's see here.

He can't be enchanted.

Well, you wanted her to settle down
again.

Not quite what I had in mind.

Got it.

You won't see a better arterial graft
than that in a hurry. In fact, if it

hasn't worked, Dr. Ormerod, I'll eat
your stick.

Right, let's see how the circulation is.

Foot's pinking up nicely.

Getting warmer.

Tibial artery.

Yes, I can feel a pulse.

The blood flow has returned. Excellent.

Mr. Smithson can keep his leg, and you
can keep your stick.

I'll leave you to break the good news to
his lady wife.

Suture, please, nurse.

Well, the grandmother seems to have the
baby's breast intestines at heart, but

she's going to be knocking on a bit by
the time Charlie's in his teens.

Is that any worse than being a teenage
mother?

It must be prejudice, Jim.

No, well, I'd tell that to the
magistrates.

So, what would you like me to do about
it?

A second opinion?

Take a look at the baby? Yeah, that's
it.

Mrs Guthrie?

It's George!

Anything for me? I'm in rather good form
today.

It's an impressive gash.

One of the hazards of getting on a bit.
Skin like a chicken that's been boiled

too long.

Sorry, um, what happened exactly?

He just fell down the delivery hatch.

He was dizzy. Maybe he fainted.

Yeah, right after you had a go at him. I
didn't have a go at him, did I?

Of course not.

Need a few stitches in that?

Yes, thank you, Mr Rose.

So, did he lose consciousness at any
point? Yeah, he was out for a few

Right, well, that's long enough.

We're going to have to keep you in for
24 hours at least. I can't stay here.

I've got things to do. Come on, then.

Who's going to arrange everything?
George, don't worry about the club.

I'll handle things.

Well, he's had a very lucky escape,
Norma.

Please.

But it'll be some months before...

Bill makes a full recovery.

I'm really grateful, Doctor.

I am.

What can you tell me about your
husband's drinking habits?

What do you mean?

He was drunk, Norma.

Nine o 'clock in the morning.

I thought it was just in evenings.

You know, winding down.

Well, does he go to the pub regularly?

Drink socially?

No.

We've been a bit down lately.

You know, we... We're going through a
bad patch.

To tell you the truth, Doctor... We
don't talk.

I see.

Pity.

I've got things under control.

About time you went your keyboard.

I'll be back later.

Look after him.

Right, here we go.

And if there's anything else you need,
just ask. Well, you could find somewhere

for us by our turn today.

See what I can do.

And while you're at it, you could run up
a couple of hundred of them before

tomorrow night.

Hey, you've come to the right man.

Leave it with me.

Oh, right, thanks.

Blake, feeling generally under par, but
nothing specific, then?

I've noticed he has a skin condition.

Desquamative dermatitis.

Could be unrelated, but I have a feeling
that all is not quite as it should be

with your Mr. Guthrie.

No.

Well, I'm awaiting blood test results.

Good luck with that. At least his
daughter seems very attentive.

Nice to see you.

Now,

Mr. Smithson, how are you feeling?

How do you think?

Where are we?

Talking to Dr. Elmerud.

Blame what?

Nothing.

OK, that's fine, yes.

Oh, it's all right, isn't it?

Well, you could increase his feeds. He
is underweight.

Dr Goodwin's already told me that.

When I was here this morning.

You come with me.

We can find some tea and biscuits.

You're giving me a heart attack.

We've got a job on, my son.

Should be a couple of quid in it.

Job? Yes, and listen, it's not strictly
hospital business, so keep it under your

hat. Right, so when you say it's not
strictly... No, not at all.

Deb's.

obvious signs of maltreatment, but I
would be concerned about the weight

That could point to neglect.

We wouldn't make the link if the
circumstances were normal, would we?

Well, no, but I think it is something to
be considered in this case. Joanna

stands accused of being an unfit mother.

But that's part of the problem.

The accusation puts her under pressure.

The very process of establishing her
competence makes it harder for her to be

competent. Jeff, don't turn this into a
crusade.

OK, this is not about the system. This
is about the welfare of the baby.

I know.

And what I see is a baby who is possibly
being neglected.

A father who seems to me, quite frankly,
to be a little bit useless.

And a belligerent mother who is clearly
out of her depth.

I'm sorry, Jeff, but, you know, you did
ask for my opinion.

Dr Goodwin. He's a nice man, isn't he?

He won't let them take Charlie away.

Does your boyfriend help much?

We argue a lot.

I thought I loved Kevin, you know. But I
didn't know what real love was.

Not until Charlie came along.

Well, they say a mother's love's like no
other.

Have you got children?

One. A girl.

She's 11 now.

I remember when she was a baby, she was
the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen.

But it was still hard.

That's what scares me.

I won't get any easier.

It does.

But you've got to work at it and you've
got to let other people give you advice.

Everyone treats me like I'm still at
school.

Bossing me around and interfering.

The only one to help.

Then they should leave us alone.

Gestetner. Bless you.

No, no, it's what you need.

I've got one in the car.

You'll knock a couple of hundred copies
out in no time.

I'll get it for you.

Here, you can do without me for five
minutes.

Well, I suppose I'll manage.

Now, just a minute. I mean, are you sure
about this? I mean, I don't know how

long you're going to be around.

I'm in no hurry, Ken.

And between you and me, Lizzie's taken
quite an interest in what I've got to

offer. Now, wait a minute.

Now, I've had a right result coming
here.

A right...

Royal result.

To get me.

How are you

doing?

I've had bad days.

Just thinking.

You'll die on me one day.

Sure you don't have to think about that
just yet?

Yeah, but one day.

Paul thinks I can't wait.

He thinks I'm a gold digger and George
is a gullible old fool.

It's not like that.

I'm not saying I wasn't attracted to his
wallet.

I was.

That's not the only thing.

Anyway, what drew him to me?

All the work I do for charity.

We both do all right.

I want for nothing, and he's the study
of the envy of all his mates.

What's wrong with that?

Sounds fair to me.

I'm Adam Cunningham. Yeah, and I've seen
you about. Yeah, I've seen you about

too, going out with Dr Ormerod this
morning.

Yeah, he needed a drive.

It was a murder.

Oh, that's right, you used to be on the
ambulance.

Yeah, you used to be, Frankie.

It's very important that we all know
what our role is.

Now, you feel free to let me know if
you're not happy on the wards.

I met you for the first time last night
When I kissed you and I held you tight

Baby, you made me feel all right So this
is the song that I sang all night

Really? No, I'm not.

Do you know how hard this is? It took me
ages.

Well, it's all for a good cause.

And don't strain yourself.

Mr. Carnegie, can... Can you hear me all

right, Mr. Carnegie?

Yes, thanks very much.

Pleased to hear it.

See you tomorrow?

I think he likes me.

How long has this cough been going on
for?

She shouldn't have said anything.

Can't have you disturbing all the other
patients.

Be in trouble with Matron, for one
thing.

How long exactly?

I don't know.

I've hardly noticed it.

Indeed. Well, you may not care about
your health, but fortunately we do.

Right.

I thought you were dealing with me leg.

All my patients come as a job lot, I'm
afraid. The legs, lungs, liver, the

caboodle.

You've been drinking too much, Bill. I'm
not looking after yourself.

You need a chest X -ray.

It'll have to be tomorrow, my sister.

You, er... You can't make me have one if
I don't want to.

No, no, that's your choice.

But in my experience, the longer you
leave these things, ignore them, the

they get.

Look, an X -ray won't exactly change
anything, Bill.

But it will let you know what's going
on.

Put you in control.

I am in control.

And I'm not having it, Doctor.

From the results I've had so far, it
would seem that George has ingested

something he shouldn't.

Do you mean something he's eaten?

Something dodgy.

Well, I wouldn't like to say what
exactly at the moment.

I will need to speak to him when he's
feeling better and then maybe we can

the source.

Yes.

When you think you've ingested
something, what exactly do you mean?

Could it be... Could it be poison?

Well, I wouldn't like to jump to any
conclusions.

But it could be.

Um, I really wouldn't like to say at the
moment.

I'm going to run some toxicology tests.
I don't believe it.

She wants it all now, that's what it is.

Mr. Guthrie.

She's tried to kill my father, hasn't
she?

What time are we in court, Jeff?

Two o 'clock.

Good. Thanks.

Morning, Jeff.

Morning.

He had a face on him like thunder this
morning. I couldn't get a word out of

him. What's your secret?

Well, I am only his doctor, Jill. You're
his wife.

That's Richard.

Good morning, good morning, good
morning.

The son has got his hat on and tell you
that to play. Mr.

Catchpole, a word, if I may.

As many as you like, Matron. I'm all
ears.

And mouth, which is why I'd be grateful
if you'd refrain from distracting my

stuff with idle chit -chat.

Don't worry, Matron.

I wouldn't want to stop your wonderful
nurses from doing the good work. You can

rely on me.

The receptionist, on the other hand,
that's a different matter.

Morning, Lizzie.

Morning. How are you? The fact is,
Debbie's only interested in him for one

thing, money.

And what better for her than to get all
the cash and then be a free woman again?

I've seen the way she looks at young
men.

Do you really think she wants to be
saddled with a pensioner? Look, we can't

sure that there's been any foul play.

OK. Well, we'll wait and see what my dad
has to say when he wakes up.

Then we'll see if it's a matter for the
police or not.

Try the grand. Get him a suite with a
sea view, cos he's top -notch. Jimmy

Martin, he tours all over. And the
Guthrie's want him to be comfortable.

He's singing at the opening tonight.

I know. I tried to get a ticket. Oh, I'm
me. They sold out ages ago.

Is he loaded, that Mr Guthrie?

Worth a fortune.

I would think he got that wife.

Stop doing that.

It's that gawatsit machine. It's a right
pain.

I've only done half of them copies.
You'd better get your finger out than

you, because Debbie wants them flyers on
the tables ready for the opening.

Give me a ring as soon as you can, love.

You've been coughing all night. You're
short of breath.

Now, you just can't refuse an x -ray.

Norma, can you talk some sense into him,
please?

Bill?

You should listen to the doctor.

He knows what's best.

There's no point.

I'd be out of here now if it weren't for
this.

It's my life.

Well, what about me, Bill?

What about my life, eh?

Oh, haven't I got one any more?

Norma! I'll go.

He's not the man I married.

The man I wed's in there somewhere, but
I've been all trying to find him.

You've been under a lot of pressure to
understand him.

Well, I don't understand any of it.

I mean, if I come in her room, he goes
out.

We hardly said two words to each other
all day.

I don't know what I've done.

This isn't your fault, Norma.

Your husband's the one with the problem.

You're having to deal with the
consequences of it.

I'm not sure I can anymore.

I mean, what's the point?

He won't tell me what's wrong.

It's the drink.

He's got his head stuck in the sand. He
can't see the damage he's doing.

What am I supposed to do then?

Spend the rest of my days like that?

Because I can't do it.

I can't do it, Chester.

I can't do it.

Mr Carnegie.

Matron.

Don't stop, Stella. Please don't stop.

Actually, I think stopping would be a
very good idea.

Oh, Matron, Mr Carnegie, I was just...
My office, please. Nurse Davenport.

Look, I understand why you're feeling
apprehensive at the moment.

You really shouldn't fear the worst.

In fact, I think you'll feel far less
anxious when you know exactly what's

on. And Norma, too.

Look, have the X -ray, Bill.

For Norma's sake, if not for yours.

There's no point.

I've seen it all before.

I'm sorry?

Coughing, wheezing, getting weaker and
weaker.

My uncle and my grandfather, he got them
both.

Lung cancer, doctor.

That's what I want.

Well, we can't know that.

I know what it means to have a steer
cancer in front of me.

Bill, you need this X -ray.

You need to know one way or the other.

And so does your wife.

It's dying.

And make me normal.

That's what I've been afraid of.

I've been a fool.

But it's all out for her.

I'll raise you, actually, Doctor.

And tell Norma, will you?

Tell her... I made her.

Nurse Davenport.

The port -a -thrum is not the place to
conduct your nursing skills.

Even if you could do with the practice.

I think you've waited enough time for
one day.

Yes, Matron.

What's your opinion of Nurse Davenport,
Matron?

Oh, she has her flaws.

But she's also highly capable.

She has integrity and passion.

She's cheerful.

She's well liked by the patients.

You should be grateful, Mr Carnegie.

Nurse Davenport is an asset to the
Royal.

That was my impression.

You look like I feel.

Work's getting me down.

I shouldn't say that when I'm looking
after your husband.

I don't know how you do this job.

I've seen enough of this place to last
me a lifetime.

It's not the nursing.

I just like to be appreciated.

I'm paid more.

You ever thought about working in a
club?

You could do very well for yourself.

An attractive girl like you.

No, I couldn't.

I love nursing.

And it feels right for me.

Despite what Matron might think.

Job satisfaction, eh?

Doesn't pay the bills.

No. You're right there.

But I couldn't give it up.

Shame.

Pundits would love you.

Might even find you love a sugar daddy.

The man says... If you want to confess,
where are my trousers?

Oh, you cheeky thing!

But you've got a line for every
occasion.

That's all right, Ken.

That's all right. Mind you, some causes
are more deserving than others.

Do you know what I mean?

Teddy, you know that Lizzie's my
daughter, don't you?

She never is.

Yes.

then you could be just the chap to help
me. Is your magnificent daughter

involved with anyone?

Well, yes, actually, she is.

With him.

Good heavens.

Don't mean to be rude, but everything
all right with her peepers?

Good, well...

There's no evidence of any damage from
the blow to your head, so I think we can

give you the all clear on that.

Mr. Guthrie, have there been any changes
in your diet recently?

You know what? I'm sorry.

What did you say? The doctor needs to
ask you a few questions, Dad. It's

to worry about.

I think we should maybe leave him a
while just to let George get his

first. We can't wait forever.

What's your hurry?

I'll tell you what my hurry is.

He's my dad, and I care about him.

How's the patient Guthrie? Still
puzzling us?

Half of it. There's actually a poisoning
blind around there.

Really? From whom?

His son.

I think his wife is trying to see him
off.

Good Lord.

I thought you were his daughter.

Yes, a common mistake, I believe.

Well, then, you wouldn't think he had it
in him.

Poison, eh?

Well, that would tie him to the skin
condition.

Mind you, he's had his symptoms for some
time.

Something not too potent, perhaps?

Regular doses?

What? You think I've tried to kill him?

I didn't think you were that stupid,
Paul.

Sly and conniving, yeah.

You're not so stupid.

You've got a motive.

What, his money?

You're the one with your iron, your
inheritance.

What's going on?

I doubt there'll be anything left by the
time you've finished.

See? Sorry, can you keep the noise down?

You're afraid I'm going to spend the
family fortune, are you?

Is he right?

Has George been poisoned?

Well, I wouldn't... I can't say at the
moment. But it's possible.

Well, maybe you did it then.

Oh, please.

Excuse me, we have other patients to
consider. I wouldn't put it past you.

all right now, Mr Godfrey.

I haven't done anything.

No, you never have.

Joanna's love for her son is quite
apparent.

I've seen nothing that makes me think
she won't make a first -class mother.

Is she not yet a first -class mother, Dr
Goodwin?

She's not there yet, no, but with a
little support and... It seems to me

are serious doubts about the current
level of care.

In your opinion, Doctor, is Miss Atkins
able to meet the degree of

responsibility required?

I'm afraid to say I don't think she is,
no.

How can you say that?

That is not true.

Joanna. I thought you were going to help
me.

Thalactus maritimus.

I'm sorry?

Thalactus maritimus, Dr. Wetherill. The
polar bear.

Right.

Good. Vicious things.

I was stationed in Norway once.

A couple of army chums went on a jaunt
through the Arctic. Came across one of

the devils. Had to shoot it.

Right, I'm sorry, Mr. Rose. Is there any
point to this, or...? Point is, Doctor,

they were a bit peckish.

Cooked it up, tucked into the liver.

Darn near died.

Huge amounts of vitamin A, don't you
know?

It's all the fish they eat.

Hypervitaminosis A? It fits the
symptoms.

Indeed it does.

You'd have to have taken a fair old dose
of the stuff over a long period, but it

could be the answer to our puzzle.

Could be.

I suppose the question is, who gave it
to him?

We're talking about an excess of vitamin
A.

Quite harmful in very large doses, fatal
even. Now, he says he hasn't altered

his diet, so we still need to ascertain
how it got there.

There's your answer.

If anyone has poisoned him, Paul, it's
you.

Because I know it wasn't me.

Is someone going to explain all this to
me?

Listen, Dad, you've got some kind of
vitamin poisoning.

Please, if you'd just leave this to me.
Have you noticed anything suspicious in

your food? Anything at all?

Paul's trying to blame me, George. And
they don't know what he's like.

Yeah, yeah, all right, all right, I hear
you.

Poison.

Vitamins?

Oh.

Oh, no.

Mr. Guthrie? Yeah.

Back again, Teddy?

Good job, Mr. Carnegie.

Very big.

Dr. Omero.

See, Frankie's been driving you again.
Ah, that's right, yes.

Maybe he didn't mention it, but I told
him to let me know whenever he goes out.

He did say something, actually. I just
didn't think it was that important.

The medicine's results.

They've just come in. Good, good.

I'll come through to the ward when I've
had a look.

I'm sorry, I just haven't got time for
this.

I don't think I've made myself very
clear, Doctor. I am running this

now. I'm not a hero. I don't pull people
from tractors. I don't save lives, at

least not directly. But I am very good
at my job, which enables you to be good

at yours.

So you'll understand if I don't
appreciate anyone making that difficult

I'm no hero.

Well, I'd be worried if you thought you
were.

You'd better take a look at those
results.

What have you been taking?

Well, health foods, vitamin pills. I
wanted to make sure it worked.

Halibut liver oil capsules, the
concentrated kind.

Aha.

There's your culprit, Doctor.

What? But they're wonderful.

Absolutely packed with vitamin A. Well,
that's the trouble. Those kind of doses

should only be used to treat a vitamin A
deficiency. It is strictly medicinal.

Well, I had no idea that there might be
any harm in taking a few extra. I mean,

I just wanted to keep my, you know, my
energy up.

Will he be all right, Doctor?

That's the important thing.

He'll be fit as a flea if he just stops
taking the pills.

George, why didn't you tell me?

Debs, you were a Ferrari.

I couldn't even handle a Ford Anglia
these days.

Come on, we're stronger than that.

I'm not staying to watch this. You're as
bad as each other.

Yes, we are.

I'm proud of it, my son.

I

did

what I thought was right.

Joanna. I could trust you.

That's all taken care of.

Thank you so much.

Very, very grateful to you.

Thank you. And there are a few tickets
for tonight.

Oh. Come along and have a good time,
yeah?

Oh, lovely. Thanks very much.

I've got some good news for you.

Dr. Weatherill said free to go.

That's what I wanted to hear.

Thank you.

Right.

Well, straight to the point, I think.

You do not have lung cancer.

Oh, that's fantastic, Doctor.

Did you hear that, Bill?

Are you sure?

I didn't make it till late.

No, no, your symptoms are real enough.

You have a condition called farmer's
lung. You've probably heard of it.

It comes about after years of inhaling
straw and dust.

It's quite disabling, so there's little
wonder that you're feeling very poorly.

Is there anything you can do about it?

It can't be cured, I'm afraid. But we
can take measures to relieve the

Now, you need to avoid all contact with
chaff dust.

And you should wear a mask during
harvest time.

And I'll prescribe an inhaler.

To suppress any possible bronchospasm.

And I'll make sure he uses it, Doctor.

When his leg's better.

About time I nagged you a bit more.

Yeah.

The one with the neck, you know?

Alan?

That's the chap.

I got the impression you and he were an
item.

An item? What gave you that idea?

Your father, actually.

Did he now?

Well, let me put you straight.

I am absolutely, definitely, 100 %
young, free and

single. Super.

Doing anything this evening?

You are going to faint when you see
this.

For you.

Well, I wish I could think of some
cliche to mouth to make

our parting scene.

All right, love.

I'm a grown woman.

Telling Peggy I'm involved with Alan,
how could you?

All right, I'm sorry. It just sort of
slipped out. Oh, yes. Like this, you

Oh. Eddie says ta very much.

Are you sure?

Have a nice time?

I won't forget it.

You're a rare one, Nurse Dean.

Am I?

Well, from what I hear, the world and
its wife wants tickets to that, do you?

She'd be a great night.

Oh, I'll get them just as thick in the
mud.

Hmm. What's the real reason?

It costs a babysitter. I won't have
enough left over for a glass of water.

Well, that's a pity.

I've seen how hard you work. You deserve
a good night now and again.

I couldn't agree more. You'll have to
raise our wages, Mr Carnegie.

I'll look into it.

Well, you have a good night anyway.

Well, thank you.

Let me show you two a table. Thank you.

Oh, I feel like one of them VIPs.

You are, Lizzie.

You are.

I could get used to this, if you could
afford it.

Hey, take a look at that.

He's a bit of a dark horse, isn't he?

Yes. Yes, of course.

I'll get this one.

Where is the money? Look at that.

Evening, gents.

Oh, fancy seeing you here.

Lady wife, is it? None of your business.

Ill -gotten gains, is it?

Pardon?

Well, there's use of telephone, hospital
facilities, moonlighting. Shall I go

on? No, no, no. So however, I take that
for the Christmas party fun.

You have a good night.

I know you, Gordon.

You're not yourself.

I'm sorry if I've been a bit snappy.

No.

I am your wife.

I suppose that means I get the brunt of
things some of the time, but... I would

also like to think that I'm the person
that you could confide in.

You can talk to me, you know.

I... Well, I'm just... I just don't want
to be fit again, that's all.

Once I'm properly mobile, everything
will be all right.

Well, that's not going to be long now,
is it?

Let's go home, shall we?

Sure.

I'll give you a shout when I've
finished.

Gordon, if there is anything on your
mind, you will tell me, won't you?

Of course.

Miles from nowhere.

Yes, I'll take my time.

To reach there, look up at the mountain,

I have to climb, oh yeah.

To reach there, Lord, my body's

been a good friend, but I won't need it.
