All language subtitles for The Brief s02e03 Forever on the Mind.eng

Oh, dear. Oh, dear.

Oh,

dear.

Don't just stand there. Help me.

What's happened?

I've got a reaction from morphine.

All right, what do we have?

Reaction from morphine.

All right.

Okay, we've got him.

Who started the recess?

Me.

Well done, Alice.

All right, Mr. Gilday.

Mr. Gilday.

You're all right now.

Okay?

Are you OK?

It's always well done, Alice, isn't it?
I don't think so, is it?

What's your problem, Kelly?

I think she's a very good nurse.

So are you.

And you both just saved a life.

Any chance of some of that coffee before
I crash?

You're going to be fine.

Thank you.

We all thought my father was on the
mend.

It's such a shock.

Yeah, it will be, Mr Gilday.

We nearly lost him last week.

I couldn't really get any sense out of
the doctors.

It's okay.

The operation was successful, but he
then developed an infection.

That nurse seems pretty upset.

Yeah. She grew quite close to him.

You know, he had a lot of morphine.

Well, was he in pain?

So it's Navajo in the 4 .30.

No, no, not for a plate.

It's wind.

Half a G on the note.

It's back.

Prosecution's going to say you chose
rich patients and your motive was greed.

Because I missed a girl day.

The week before I saved his life.

The papers are saying there were others
from two years ago when you first came

on that ward.

I went through all those with the
police.

When one of them died, I wasn't even on
duty that day.

We don't like giving morphine because
it's dangerous.

You dread something like this happening.

In those three weeks, did he ever tell
you he'd changed his will?

Yeah, but I thought he was joking.

When the police told me he'd really left
me some money, I felt sick.

I knew the way the mines would go on.

It was a silly old thing.

He must have just wanted the time to
meet. Oh, don't worry, love.

You might not even have the faith of
trying if Henry here gets his way.

No promises yet, but we're working on
something.

I'll do my best for you.

You in?

My first case, it was a shoo -in, but
what the hell.

It was not a shoo -in. I read the brief,
remember?

Yeah, thank you for helping an idiot
through it. You've spent hours.

It was nothing. Now, just to make your
day even lovelier, how would you like to

be the junior on a murder?

You are joking, aren't you?

No, I'm not, but it does mean dropping
everything starting now.

Well, I was going to rest on my laurels
for a couple of days, but I am going to

cook you the best dinner you've ever
had. Oh, it's just my luck. I've got to

meet my old man tonight.

He's trying to make up for lost time, so
I should probably roll in drunk.

Keep reading.

Congratulations, Millie.

On what?

Winning your first case.

I got lucky.

Dinner. Did I promise that?

Absolutely. Keep trying.

Two movie stars danced the tango in two
films, one in 1992, one in 1994.

Name the films and the stars.

Congratulations, Millie.

Oh, I was spending my fees before I
earned them, but the girl's got to have

taste. Hey, the girl done good.

A sense of a woman with Al Pacino.

It's a two -part question.

Come on, the name of the other film and
the star who danced with Tango.

Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Thank you.

You are gorgeous.

I might have a job for you.

Please, thank you. I'm a very smart boy
and he brings us lots of work, so you be

nice to him.

Mr. Pharmacer, I've got something for
you.

And I wanted to give it to you
personally, in case you didn't want

see. Alpha betting exchange.

Dragon Spread Betting.

Chinese gentleman, I would say.

And Lanster Internet Betting.

Thank you.

And can you not get them to ring your
mobile in future?

It does tend to tie us up when we're
trying to make you money.

You've got your quiz tonight.

Good luck.

Oh, I should never have let him talk me
into forgiving him.

The Baron?

This French trollop who's just announced
she's been his mistress for six years

and had half a million pounds' worth of
jewellery out of him.

He doesn't think anything of it.

Not in the papers here.

Well, not yet. No, it's only a matter of
time.

What are you going to do?

Oh, I don't know.

I don't know.

Oh, my God.

Well, I'll need to talk to the children.

They're adults now.

Thank you.

Oh, no.

Well, she'll have divorced. They're
always fighting each other. But that one

went thick of an alimony.

Shall I look for another silk for Alice
Ray?

Oh, no, no.

No, I'm not going to back out and leave
you without a leader.

No.

We're very effective, that's all.

Think about it.

I don't work for creeps. Ah!

So you must come in your way, then.

Well, uh... Have you had any

treatment for your gambling problem?

It's not a problem, Dad.

It's a solution.

It hasn't worked, has it?

Avoid therapy.

Willpower. It's your part now.

Come on.

Lady Gillespie wants you in bed by
twelve.

Hello, dear.

We haven't been properly introduced.

I'm the one we don't talk about.

I know.

I'll drive. Don't be silly.

You've got to stop this.

I'm considered to be a moderate drinker.

You're killing yourself.

You won't be going to the Lords.

They don't want him.

But don't say I told you.

People knew half what we know about
judges. It'd be a revolution.

again Winston.

Anyone for a drink?

Anyone for a drink?

Michael Ray.

I've got a reservation.

Accused nurse was obsessed with money.

Angel had free holiday from my
boyfriend.

They've just taken things and twisted
them.

In my short and undistinguished career,
this is the worst reporting I've seen. I

don't think you can have a fair trial.

And I've checked the facts. It amounts
to a hate campaign.

What can you do?

As a first tactic, we go for what's
known as a stay of proceedings.

We say the court will struggle to find a
jury of 12 people who haven't been

influenced by this rubbish.

If we win, the papers get taken to
court, we get a long adjournment, which

us more time.

Then I still have to face them one day.

If you can never get a fair trial, you
may never go in the dock.

But then I can't properly hear my name,
can I?

Obviously, if you go to trial, I think
you'll be acquitted.

But with a jury, you can never be sure.

I want to give you every opportunity to
walk away from here, and failing that,

then the very best defence.

And it's all free, OK?

So eat your greens and don't lose heart.

Yes, mate.

Well, I tell you what, have a word with
both of them, and I'll see you down

there later. Yeah, all right, mate. Bye.

Your brief's badly prepared, Neil, and
you're never available when I want you.

Oh, come on, I've delivered Steve, the
duty doctor, for you.

He's our trump card.

He's our only card, isn't he?

Henry, I screwed the prosecution for
Steve. They thought he was their

Don't worry so much.

Look, the jury are going to love Alice,
Henry.

I don't want her to go in the box.

I like her, but for better or worse,
they're out to get her. She only has to

tripped up once, and we're up against
Jaws.

Jaws? You'll see.

Oh,

Henry, don't worry.

You know what? With your common sense
and my genius, it's never going to go

before a jury.

Hello.

How the hell did this happen?

I'm so pleased to see you.

I'm sorry.

It's been some time.

Don't.

You're here.

That's all that matters.

And I'll be all right now.

You can do this.

I know.

I know.

Will you stay?

Of course.

I'm being caught.

I won't let you down this time.

I'll feel like you're holding me hand.

Prosecution case doesn't ring true.

She's not calculating.

The statements are fairly consistent.

She was in a difficult situation dealing
with extreme pain.

The duty doctor signed off on the
morphine.

And it's a busy NHS hospital. Shorter
time and money. Too many people to

But there is a little matter of the
deceased giving her 15 grand.

Yes, that's fairly inconvenient.

So let's attack that.

I really feel in my gut she wasn't after
the money either.

Advice is, even if you think she's
innocent, imagine she's not.

Concentrate the mind.

Don't let the big brown eyes get to you,
kid.

Any chance of getting hold of the
victim's will?

Don't think there's any doubt he left
her it, but why?

Hey, the time!

Oh my God, it's started!

When you've got homes to go to.

In the traditional closed hold of
ballroom dancing, the lady is always to

gentleman's right. What is the origin of
this?

Gentlemen used to wear swords when
dancing.

Correct.

Who were the British standard

ballroom champions in the year 1998?

Donna Reeve and Alan Shingler.

You sure?

Absolutely. I know them.

You're right.

Yes!

Come on!

In the film Sense of a Woman, what did
the two actors dance to?

The tango. Is correct.

We'll be right back after the break.

Welcome back.

Maureen Tyler, you've already won £125
,000 and you're

answering questions on ballroom dancing.

The waltz was originally called the
Volta or Turn.

What was a volta originally?

It was an Italian folk dance.

You've won £200 ,000!

If you answer the last question
incorrectly, you win nothing. You know

don't you? Come on, Mo.

Take it! Is that enough? If you win, all
those barristers you look after,

they'll have to find someone else.

You'll be richer than them.

Oh, I'm not going to give up work.

I love it.

I'm going to go for it. For our star
prize of £500 ,000, the shimmy

was one of the dances that evolved into
the modern quick step.

It was first mentioned in 1909 in a song
by Perry Bradford.

Name that song.

The Bullfrog Jump.

You sure? The Bullfrog Jump.

Yes. The Bullfrog Jump.

Congratulations, Ray.

Best

get back to

Mrs Scanlon.

If she's at home.

Right, Ray.

You doing all counts, sir?

That reminds me.

Fingal Stevenson.

What about Fingal Stevenson?

Well, Jerry Fingal's run off with two
million of his client's mortgage money.

They're out of the game.

Don't they owe you a cheque or two?

Oh, Rick.

Yeah, well, they stopped returning my
calls.

Now we know why.

Hey, you'll be all right, sir.

Congratulations. I'm not drunk.

What are you doing here?

I didn't want to go home.

What are you doing?

Oh, I had to understand one or two
things.

Did you lose money from Fingal
Stevenson?

Loads. Oh.

I can't blame bad luck for everything.

Hey, forget me.

You were fantastic.

You should be dancing in the streets.

You know, when I was answering the
questions, I could sense my old hubby

bless him.

Go on, girl.

My mind was so clear.

I could pay off a mortgage.

You can do better than that.

You can go on a world cruise.

Wrong Gilda is the only one on the
indictment.

But the prosecution are going to say you
gave the wrong amount of morphine on a

number of occasions.

We give morphine all the time.

Patients are dying all the time.

I must have saved 20 lives against the
three that I lost.

Fine. You made mistakes.

That's all we have to say.

I'm a good nurse.

Sometimes when your back's against the
wall, Alice, admitting to some human

failings isn't such a bad idea.

Would you do the same again?

I think so.

I mean, how to judge pain isn't easy.

You had some money problems. Now, I know
the papers made a meal of this. It

wasn't. You spent a lot more than you
earned. Isn't that what most people do?

I'm just trying to show you how their
minds are working.

The police decided I was guilty.

They came into me life and turned the
insides out trying to find stuff.

I thought you were on my...

She seemed quite sweet when we first met
her. There's a lot of anger there from

somewhere, but that's not unusual.

I'm glad you're not letting her go in
the box.

Jewelry's an outburst.

Don't mix.

I don't know why she'd do it
deliberately. Do you think she's guilty?

No chance to get her off.

Excuse us.

The Alice Ray trial.

I just wanted to warn you about
something coming your way in the shape

baroness and bullshit, QC.

She says she's not going to be around
much.

Well, aren't you going for a state of
proceedings?

Yes. One Sunday tabloid is seriously out
of order. Well, apparently the editor's

an old friend of hers.

You aren't joking?

No.

She's seriously suggesting we drop this
in favour of her social contacts.

There's a detailed note coming your way.
It's a masterpiece of its kind because

of what it doesn't say.

What doesn't it say? Well, she doesn't
know that I know this.

But the word is the editor will keep her
marital problems out of the gossip

columns if she makes sure that the paper
isn't done for contempt of court in the

Alice Rankin.

I'll do this.

Amen.

I had a little chat with Mr Farmer,
Miss.

And he's very set upon the stay of
proceedings because of what the tabloids

been saying.

Well, if he reads my note, he'll see the
strategic reasons why I'm against it.

Oh, don't worry, Miss.

He's not aware of any other factors.

Well, it is unfortunate that the editor
of the paper in question has been very

kind to me by not publishing a very
delicate and embarrassing matter to do

my family.

That's why I don't want a
misunderstanding.

Well, I know that, Miss.

I do think, really...

that it's wrong to delay from a legal
point of view.

Well, I see that.

I really do see that. Good.

But he might see it as an act of self
-interest, rather than you just thinking

about the defendant.

That's for you.

Ah!

And what time do you call this?

I've forgotten what the hangover feels
like.

The TV cut.

Celebrity appearance.

Lend me 100 grand.

You keep every penny, girl.

Hello. Oh, Mr Farmer. Can I have a quick
word?

I beg your pardon?

Well, I'll wait to hear from you then.

They're sorry for messing me around.

There's one or two things about last
night's show they're worried about.

They don't feel able to honour the
cheque.

Her mother left us when she was five. We
never saw her again.

Coped on my own for a year, but it
wasn't easy.

When her stepmother Shirley came into my
life, she was having sense.

She was very good with Alice.

Unfortunately, it isn't easy for girls
that age to adapt to stepmothers.

And you live in Canada?

We decided to move there a while back.

Alice wanted to be independent, so she
asked if she could stay here with her.

And Marsha.

How old was Alice then?

16.

Her aunt died a couple of years later,
but by then she wanted to manage on her

own. But you had a good relationship?

We always kept in touch.

Didn't just forget about her.

When Marsha was dying, I was back and
forth a lot.

I remember after the funeral, we spent a
week together.

I even said, come to us, but she wanted
to be in England.

She's quite grown up by then.

If there's anything you want me to do,
any information you need, just ask.

Just on my way to see Alice.

I hope she's calmed down.

Sorry for her now. I can see why she's
so needy.

Her father doesn't seem to think that
leaving, going to live thousands of

away, is that unusual.

Is that from the heart, Henry?

Disinterest. It's a crime, whatever the
age.

It took her aunt dying to get him to
come to England last time. Now she's on

trial for murder. But we kept in touch,
he says.

He seems to be trying to make amends
now.

In a half -hearted sort of way.

It's all right.

You must be going through hell.

Sometimes I have to ask the difficult
questions. It doesn't mean I'm making a

judgment.

I feel easier seeing you alone.

I have to warn you.

The prosecution are going to call your
colleague, Kelly Byrne.

She is going to say that she stopped you
giving an overdose of morphine twice

before.

She also says she overheard you talking
to patients about money.

I can't believe she'd say those things.

How can she say those things?

That's what I want to know. Could there
be anything behind it?

She was my best friend at the hospital.

We used to go round together.

We had an argument, that's all.

She hardly ever spoke to me after that.

Do you want to tell me what the argument
with Kelly was about?

It was first mentioned in 1909 in a
song... I knew all the answers. How

have cheated?

Perhaps they're going to accuse you of
communicating with the spirit world.

Should I take a solicitor?

Days of scandal and confusion, Mr
Farmer.

You haven't been accused of anything by
the police?

Not yet.

What are you doing?

There.

Turn it back.

Flea bite.

My dog, look.

I couldn't see him, even if he was
scratching.

Anyway, how would that help?

They weren't multiple choice questions.

No, I just wanted to know what he was
doing.

I ought to tell you, Mo.

I only found out recently that you've
been trying to get on the programme for

years.

My wife's cousin works there.

Is that why you told me to write in?
Yes.

I didn't want to raise your hopes
because... All she could do was look out

your letter, put you on an interview
list.

They liked you.

You got her into this pool, you better
get her out.

No, I'm going to be working. I can't
just come over every night.

Just listen.

It's not that.

It's got nothing to do with that.

We can't be late for the start of a
murder trial. Yes, but that is not the

point.

Don't you dare hang up.

You'll be all right.

I don't know.

It's tough doing the job, keeping things
going when you're not living together.

We have these rows when I'm not working.

It's happening too often at the moment.

Maybe we should take a break and see how
much it means.

And now would seem to be the right time.

Oh, my God. Is that him?

Jaws himself.

Right, OK.

Thank you for your note on the stay of
proceedings.

My feeling is, and the prosecuting
counsel feels the same way, if the trial

halted for this, it wouldn't be in the
public or our client's interest.

Justice mustn't be delayed.

It's not justice if the tabloids start
trying to be the judge and jury.

We're being a bit priggish, aren't we?
This wouldn't have anything to do with a

newspaper editor holding off breaking a
story about your husband, would it?

Do you mind, Millie?

As senior counsel, I have to make a
decision based on my legal experience.

No, you don't.

Defendant Lister makes a decision.

Listen, hold on.

I'm going for a stay, or I'll pull out.

You're on your own.

You're up to speed. You are a heartless,
blackmailing bastard, Henry.

That's why you like me.

Yeah, well, unfortunately, my client has
changed her mind.

Alice, why?

I don't want to look like I'm twisting
out of it.

We've got a good defence, haven't we?

I didn't do this.

Sometimes innocent people get convicted.

If I don't face them now, I'm a little
stick, won't I?

Please, take my advice.

I know I'm making it difficult for you.
We've got a very good case against this

newspaper. If we go to trial now, just
one or two hostile jurors could sink

I want my day in court.

All right.

You killed my father! Please remove that
man from the court. She murdered my

father! Look at her! Do you know what
she was doing?

Steamy bitch!

Breathe! Breathe my life!

The court will hear that the amount of
morphine administered by accelerating

IV drip was such that there was a risk
of death.

And although the defendant is only
accused of the killing of Ronald Gilday,

must carefully consider...

other similar fact incidents involving
the defendant and other patients.

When we do that, a much clearer picture
of a dark and sinister motive appears.

In each case, a three milligram per hour
drip was set up, 50 % more than normal,

and in each case, this drip had been
made to run faster at certain times.

But, Dr. Steeve, you're a witness. You
can't talk to him. I'm not going to.

And or you.

It's all set up.

This is how it works.

That's a normal dose, two mils over 24.

How do you know how to do that?

I watched the nurses do it when my mum
was dying.

Do you want to ask Dr Steed if three
milligrams was an unusual dose?

But I'd have to sign off on it, which I
did.

Ask him if there's a grey area about how
much morphine could be given by

increasing the flow.

Very much so.

Nurse Ray was working within that. She'd
accelerate as she wished.

I'll stop the seed to indicate which
nurse is Kelly Byrne.

Could you ask Dr Steed if he'd like you
to buy him lunch?

DCI McCann, in what circumstances did
you first interview the defendant?

Briefly, the deceased Mr Gilday's
children came to see me with a colleague

the defendant, Kelly Byrne.

They showed me a will.

The deceased had left the defendant £15
,000 in a codicil made two days before

his operation and four days before he
died.

They were in a state of shock, as they
had understood that their father had

as a result of an operation.

Did you note the defendant's demeanour
when you interviewed her about Ronald

Gilday's death?

She was nervous, but quite matter -of
-fact when she described it.

And when you subsequently searched the
defendant's flat, what did you find?

We found a 50 milligram file of
morphine, and we verified that morphine

missing from the stock at the hospital.

Are you saying the defendant added more
morphine to the patient's drip?

No. Are you implying that the defendant
had given more morphine than was in the

drip by some other means?

No. Are you saying that there's any
connection between the morphine found at

defendant's flat and the death of any
person? No, but the find was

surely. And the defendant refused to
offer an explanation for it. That three

milligram per hour dose was signed off
by the duty doctor, Dr. Steed, wasn't

Yes.

I think it's all going rather well.

I'm so glad we didn't go after the
papers.

How can we be sure the jury weren't
influenced by the newspapers if she's

convicted? She won't be.

The media's overrated.

Not by you, apparently.

People know when the papers are trying
it on. They see through it.

I trust the jury.

Don't mess this up between you, will
you?

I'll handle the pathologist.

He's the one to crack.

Anybody tell her we're not challenging
the pathologist?

Not the autopsy.

We're not disputing how much morphine
was given.

It's in the grey area. Poor judgment.

Over -enthusiasm to help. She may have
given the same amount many times in its

work to not cause death.

Did the hospital cover up?

No. There's no controversial medical
evidence. It's all circumstantial.

Did you read the rest of the codicil to
the will?

Yes, I believe I did.

Remember it?

Not exactly, no.

Let me remind you.

In this same codicil, the deceased also
bequeathed a similar amount to his

cleaning lady, an old school friend, as
well as donations amounting to tens of

thousands of pounds to the British
Legion, the Princess Diana Memorial

an owl sanctuary in Norfolk. Do you
remember it now?

Yes. Making it abundantly clear that his
children didn't get a penny. Is that

right? They were disinherited, I
believe.

Did you investigate whether he'd fallen
out with his family?

Yes, I did think there'd been some
tension there.

A man falls out with his kids.

A nurse is kind to him, and you didn't
consider that a possible explanation.

It was difficult to establish the
deceased's state of mind.

Sure it was.

I'm sorry, we think you may have seen
the questions, Maureen.

Oh, don't be so silly.

How?

Caught on our studio CCTV.

That's Suki, my wife's cousin.

She works as PA to the producer.

And the producer is the only one who has
access to the questions before

transmission. We're talking to Suki.

We hadn't met until that moment.

After the show.

I'm afraid that pulling strings to get
on the programme always rings warning

bells.

I didn't even know she worked on the
programme.

I know everything about ballroom
dancing.

It was my life.

Mine and my husband's.

These are very hard questions.

Oh, rubbish. They were too easy.

Who could possibly know the answer to
the final question?

It's so obscure, it's practically out of
sight. The bullfrog hop.

Bullfrog jump.

Well, you would know that.

If you'd seen the questions.

So I don't get my money, is that it?

We're giving all our evidence over to
the police.

Sir! Are we going to put our angel in
the box, Henry?

Offering her up as a snack for you,
Peter.

Aha, what are we hiding?

Don't you trust what she's going to say?

Was there anything about the defendant's
behaviour which attracted your

attention?

Well, she was all over some patients.
She couldn't do enough for them.

And if they were thanking her for
something, then she would say as a joke,

well, leave me something in your will.

I heard her say that a dozen times.

from anything said by the defendant,
could you say whether the patients took

seriously? Well, yes. She must have
talked about herself because they would

to me, oh, poor Alice, she's got such
and such a problem.

Can you describe what happened on
December 13th last year?

Yes.

Mrs Hollings was recovering from a
serious operation and we, Alice

Ray and I, were asked to set up a
morphine drip.

Alice had just come on duty and I was
just going off.

And what strength was the solution?

I got the doctor to sign off two
milligrams per hour over 25 hours, but

set up the drip.

And what happened when you came back on
duty ten hours later?

Well, I found Alice sitting with the
patient and the drip was a three

drip. Not two? No, three.

And it had been running quite a bit.

How did the defendant react?

Well, she said that the patient had been
in a lot of pain, but she seemed

totally shocked to see me.

Why was that?

Well, I'd got the time for my next shift
wrong and I was two hours early.

Did the hospital record show evidence of
her having claimed to be in pain?

No. And what would have happened if you
hadn't arrived for work early?

Mrs Hollings would have been dead.

An experienced divorce lawyer is like a
good therapist.

Wonderful performance by you, Peter.

You're a lion.

And I must say, you're looking even more
delightful these days.

I'm so sorry we've seen so little of you
in court.

You commissioned a shrink at the 11th
hour, haven't you?

Signs of desperation.

You've got me a shrink, ma 'am.

You'll be all right.

Dad, I'll be fine.

You're here.

Don't know what's going on in that
court.

So unfair.

You've got to say that.

We can answer everything.

I wasn't very good with the police
because I was still in shock.

Just like you were when you were little.

You acted guilty even when you hadn't
done anything.

I feel bad about your stepmother.

You couldn't help it.

I was a werewolf.

I wasn't always there for you.

They really ought to get me.

I was so stupid.

I had the chance of a longer German. I
was stupid. I was arrogant.

Alice, please.

I'm just scared.

If I get convicted, you're going to go
back to Canada, aren't you?

What can I do?

It's my home.

She's putting a brave face on this.

But she's in pieces.

She knows this is going badly.

Why can't she just answer what this
Kelly Byrne is saying herself?

You'll understand when I've cross
-examined it.

My daughter's whole life depends on you.

Do you know what you're doing?

I'd love to take them on in court.

Friends shouldn't defend.

I'm worried about the police giving you
a hard time. I think you should see

Jimmy Collina.

You know what makes me angry? You win
fair and square and then they try and

wriggle out of pain you by accusing you
of cheating.

I hope you did win fair and square.

Paul, didn't I hear you testing her on
one of the questions in Chambers? The

about the tango?

That was a coincidence.

Really? I didn't believe you said that.

Coming from someone who just cheated
someone out of a decent defence.

That's the end of me.

I know you didn't cheat.

What I don't know about ballroom dancing
isn't worth knowing.

I was going to give you some if I'd won.

It's very kind, but I wouldn't have
taken it.

I could kill Neil Delaney. We don't have
enough character witnesses.

Her father said she looked after her
aunt when she was ill.

Talk to the father again to find out if
she looked after her a lot, really

caring, that sort of thing.

Maybe call the aunt's GP and let Neil
Delaney think it was his idea.

Does that mean I've got to talk to him?

Mr Farmer?

You took your suspicions to the police,
but you never once said anything to the

defendant.

Why?

When someone dies like that, you don't
just go up to the nurse who set up the

trip and accuse her of murder.

Well, no, not when she saved so many
other lives. How could you?

Well, I didn't properly understand what
was going on, not for a long time. Until

Mr Gilday died, is that right?

I told Dr Steed then. I put two and two
together.

And that was just after you and the
defendant fell out?

No.

Why are you hesitating?

Um, well, there wasn't any falling out
because there wasn't any falling in.

You never went out to pubs and clubs
together?

Like the Limelight in Leicester Square?

I don't know, maybe once or twice. Once
or twice?

A bit more than that, wasn't it? When
Alice first came on the ward, you were

inseparable, weren't you? We went out
once or twice. You always wanted her to

out to bars with you after work, didn't
you?

For a while. She was your new best
friend, wasn't she? I don't know. My

think the witness needs a break.

We shall adjourn.

All right.

She nursed her aunt on her own?

Two years.

Marsha was very ill and in pain.

She must have been young to take on all
that.

She was a trooper.

Marsha used to ride simple.

See how wonderful she was.

There was a Macmillan nurse who thought
the world of her.

I think that's why Alice went into
nursing.

This is incredibly helpful.

If I could get some more details, maybe
the letters she wrote to all her GPs.

It didn't keep any letters.

Shirley wouldn't have liked it.

But I can tell you where the doctor was.

You might even be able to track down the
nurse.

I've suspended Mo.

Are you auditioning for Wicked Witch of
the Whack?

She needs to come into work. She needs
support.

She's being interviewed by the police.
She's suspected of theft.

Only comes in your favourite newspaper.

She doesn't need to be charged with
anything.

Well, all the same, it's not good for
the image of Chambers.

Can you lend me a pound?

You can't suspend someone on your own.
The allegations are crap.

We had an emergency meeting at Chambers
last night.

Tried to find you.

Fed up with being her puppy.

I don't care. I don't care anymore.

This is bloody well out of order, miss.
What?

Suspending Mo Tyler. It's disgraceful.
It wasn't me. It was a meeting of

chambers. It's just an excuse to get rid
of her because she doesn't like you.

Meeting over. If you don't unsuspend
her, you won't have a working clerk in

building. Don't be pathetic.

I've never heard of a barren clerk going
on strike.

There's a terrible flu bug going around.

Mr. Farmer?

You and the defendant had a meal
together alone on your birthday, didn't

Yes. Talked about your life and family
and lots of intimate things.

I don't remember that.

Didn't you leave your dog with her when
you went on holiday?

Yes. Holiday you were desperate for her
to come on. Where is this leading, Mr.

Farmer?

Lord.

You and Alice had a very bad falling
out, didn't you? It's obvious, because I

didn't trust her because of everything
that was happening at the hospital.

No, it wasn't that, was it, Kelly?

You fell out because she rejected your
advances.

No, that's not true.

The defendant called you a dyke, didn't
she?

Yes. It wasn't very nice, but I am
comfortable with who I am. What do you

of that word?

I... It's not a word that I like. Of
course not.

You were very, very fond of her, and she
treated you disrespectfully.

Because you'd only kissed her in a
slightly different way, hadn't you?

These things happen when you're drunk.
It was all forgiven and forgotten.

Really?

You never said a friendly word to her
again after that? No, of course. We had

communicate because we were together.

You asked to be moved to a different
floor.

I have the letter here, citing
personality difficulties with a

It was written about a month before Mr
Gilday died.

Yes. And you didn't get your move, did
you?

No. Truth is, you started making up
these stories about Alice, didn't you?

that is not true.

Well, perhaps you were convinced they
were true because you were angry.

Is that right?

Everything that I said happened did
happen. You were indulging in a warped

fantasy. And all you needed was some
concerned relatives to come along when

had your opportunity. No, that is not
true!

Kelly, no one is denying that Alice was
harsh and unfair.

But you are not admitting how badly hurt
you were, are you? It's the same person

who said those things and did this, and
that is why I stopped liking her.

Thank you.

So what does our psychiatrist say?

A bit disappointing.

Nothing terrible. So she's a neurotic
and a bit insecure.

I would be in her shoes.

Alice was brilliant with the aunt, but
the aunt's letters were all chucked. And

the Macmillan nurse died three years
ago.

We don't have enough for that jury.

Splendid performance, Henry.

Thought you were much too PC to be so
nasty.

Put us on the back foot there.

Overconfidence, Peter. Terrible
weakness.

Yes, I'm not sure the defendant is quite
as sweet as she makes out. No?

Then neither are you, Peter.

Hmm. Well, I'm at a loss, frankly.

What are we all doing here?

Can't risk him cross -examining her. How
are we getting on with the arse, GP?

I found him. He's calling back.
Promising, I'd say.

Make sure he gets something in writing,
in case we can't get him in court.

Final nail in old Jaws' cock.

What's wrong?

You weren't in court today.

I'm being pursued everywhere by
reporters, so I had to change my hotel.

Your barrister was fantastic.

Took Kelly Bain apart. She was in
pieces.

Is that right?

Be there all the time.

Please.

You were too young for me to explain why
I had to get married again so soon.

Listen, I was a pig to Shirley.

I should never have left you with
Marsha. It was my choice, and I'm glad I

She really needed me, and I was able to
help her.

I wish she'd lived longer.

So don't feel guilty.

I'll be in that court every day from now
on until you're out of here.

Promise? No defeatist talk now.

A moment on the tongue.

Forever on the mind.

The answer to your pee can be great for
us. He's very positive about Alice.

Will he come to court?

Well, he's faxing me a letter and you
can enter him as a witness if you want

him.

We have an hour meeting, Mr Farmer. We
will. I promise. I'm looking forward to

it. Well, don't rush because Alice is
ill, so we're adjourned for the day.

pretend we're going into court, OK? We
are busy. We are not adjourned.

What was it?

Gastroenteritis.

Must be nerves.

You okay?

I told them I couldn't eat spicy food.

Difficult to over me.

From when I was a kid.

But I'll be alright.

You wanted to see me alone?

I'm going into the box.

I can't let you do that.

I'm sorry.

I have to. It's not worth the risk.

We're nearly there.

We've shot down a lot of their case.

Your aunt's GP is going to tell them how
well you cared for her. He'll be a very

strong character witness. I think you'll
be acquitted without going in the box.

I've made up my mind.

That's what my client wants, Henry.

Will you make sure my dad's there?

I want him to be dead proud of me.

I have a barrister. If you and your
client don't take advice... She's not up

shoplifting. She's vulnerable.

She's going in the box with jaws. She
could still go down.

She's not even fit.

Oh, calm down, Henry.

She's an eel. She's just freaked out.
She's got something to do with... She

told me her old man used to put hot
pepper sauce on her tongue when she was

cheeky to her stepmother.

Daphne, why am I hearing this for the
first time?

I wonder if that's why Alice is so
determined to go in the box, so her

will pay her more attention.

He'll certainly have to.

I don't think he'll enjoy seeing Jaws
have a go at her.

She never takes her eyes off him in
court.

I know what you mean.

Will a day in court be enough? Will she
ever get enough attention?

Alice? Alice?

Alice, what are you doing?

Mr Farmer?

Dr Steed, do you remember what happened
on the night of Ronald Gilday's death?

I do, yes.

Alice Ray asked me if Mr Gilday could
have an increased dose of morphine for

next 24 hours, and I agreed to it. Why
did you agree to it?

He'd been experiencing a lot of pain,
and...

Obviously, I agreed to it. Was it an
unusual dose?

It was near the high end, but Alice
Ray's an experienced nurse who I

So you signed off on it.

But you could have said no, right?

Most certainly.

Ill met by moonlight, proud Titania.

Nice lunch, Dad?

Not at all.

Taking your advice.

A nurse of yours seems guilty as hell.

You following it?

Not particularly closely.

I remember when I was a kid, you saying
that all criminal lawyers were shallow

show -offs who nobody took very
seriously.

And then all those people coming out
after years inside for something they

did. I could hear you saying... Of
course they did it. Everybody knows

A great commercial lawyer from his
Olympian weight.

Not to mention the neglectful father.

I don't remember that.

Dear Henry Farmer, I do remember Alice
Ray extremely well. And he was both

caring and considerate in looking after
her aunt.

Alice was a huge help during this time.

Her outlook was positive.

You discover a nurse has seen off a
patient with a massive overdose of

You'd have to be completely blinkered
not to be suspicious, wouldn't you?

I dispute that it was a massive
overdose.

In your statement to police, you said
you were in a hurry when the defendant

asked you to sign off on the morphine.
Is that true? We're always in a hurry,

Dr. Steed. This is the kind of dose that
no one accelerates without the

permission of a doctor, surely.

It has to be left to the discretion of
the nurses sometimes.

The defendant was a particular favorite
of yours, wasn't she?

I wouldn't say that.

Oh, come on.

Blonde? Brown -eyed?

The image of an angel.

She formed a strong bond with you,
didn't she?

Attached herself to you. I wasn't aware
of that.

Were you in love with her?

No.

Of course not.

How many times did you take her out to
dinner?

Twice.

Feel sympathy for her now?

Obviously I feel sympathy for her. In
fact, you were so mesmerized by the

defendant, you went out of your way to
make excuses, didn't you?

That's ridiculous.

I'm just here to give an opinion.

I don't think she should be sitting
there.

You're neither objective nor
dispassionate, are you?

If you make those remarks.

Bite's back.

She's going in the box.

I don't have any choice.

Emotional involvement?

Those big brown eyes getting to you? I'm
going to need that GP if he's got

anything half -decent to say.

He does.

He knew her well.

Thought she was brilliant for a kid,
absolutely dedicated.

In fact, it was the GP that encouraged
her to become a nurse.

When are we going to get the aunt's
medical details?

I keep pressing him. We'll press him
again in case we need them.

I swear by almighty God that the
evidence I shall give will be the truth.

The whole truth, and nothing but the
truth.

You may sit now, Miss Reeve.

What did you think when Mr Gilday

left you all that money, Alice?

I wrote to his family and said that I
didn't want it, but...

By that time, they were convinced I was
rotten.

And what was your relationship with him?

I didn't make a special foot of him at
all.

I just listened, I suppose.

Can you describe Mr Gilday in the hours
before his death?

He was very brave.

He didn't make a lot of fuss.

He just kept saying it wasn't working.

The IV wasn't working.

I held his hand for ages.

I kept coming back whenever I could,
but... his eyes were pleading.

And his groaning, it was... it was
coming from deep inside.

I just wanted to make the morphine work.

Safely.

Did you think you were giving too much?

No.

I thought I'd get it to a plateau and
then hold it there at the normal rate

it starts working.

He went into convulsion so soon.

The image you projected of Alice was a
happy kid with some problems.

It wasn't entirely honest, was it?

If I hadn't talked to her parents, we
didn't stand for her.

Well, I was brought up paid to for her.

Blaspheme got outsourced.

We used to say a minute on the lips,
forever on the mind.

So, Mr Farmer, maybe I'm the guilty one.

Something's bothering me.

I've just had the medical details on the
aunt.

I'm not sure if it's relevant, but the
Macmillan nurse was allowed to give

morphine.

This isn't right.

This isn't right. There's something
deeply wrong here.

She's offering herself up to Jaws on a
platter.

It's like she's trying to control
things.

How much attention can one person want?

It couldn't just be a coincidence that
her aunt and Gilday both gave her money

in approval or bought back from the
brink of death a number of times, can

She saved them. She got attention from
the GP, she got attention from Dr Steed,

she got attention from everyone except
the one person she most wanted attention

from. Her father.

How much do you know about Munchausen
syndrome by proxy?

Oh, my God.

Do you think we should tell Cleo?

What were you doing stealing morphine
from the hospital, Alice?

It was for me.

I wanted to try it.

You knew what morphine would do to some
patients.

You surely wouldn't be playing around
experimenting, would you?

I was wrong to take it.

I was wrong.

You stole that morphine in case you
needed it to finish someone off, didn't

No.

Taking the morphine meself was stupid.

But I loved all me patients.

I wanted them all to get better. But
some of them didn't, Alia.

What do you feel about that?

Every person who died had a hole in your
heart.

Ronald Gilday!

No responsible nurse could give that
amount of morphine inside an hour

intending to kill.

Could they, Alice?

Yes.

He was in pain.

He was in such pain.

What would you do?

Tell me if you were in my situation.

This is Munchausen.

By proxy.

The police and the prosecution have
missed it.

Gilday changed his will. The police have
been barking up the wrong tree.

You're not a medical expert, Henry.

Marsha Ray was admitted to hospital on
the brink of death five times before she

died. The Macmillan nurse used morphine.
She and Alice were close.

Alice could have stolen it from her bag
or even helped her administer it. It was

a long time ago.

It could just be a coincidence.

Everything about her screams it.

Deliberate self -harm as a kid.

Desperate for her father's attention.

Well, that's just mumbo -jumbo.
Munchausen's cases are often highly

Gilday was saved several times before he
died. In all the other cases, her own

defence condemns her. She saved them
first.

She wanted to be the good nurse.

She wanted to be the centre of
attention.

She was magnificent in the witness box.

We have a duty to our client.

We're duty -bound to disclose the
evidence.

All right.

To be fair to the prosecution, I
suggest... We hand him the doctor's note

the aunt while we're waiting for the
judge.

What if he doesn't understand it?

We should take it to the judge in
chambers.

We're giving the prosecution the letter,
aren't we? If he wants to see the

judge, he will.

Frankly, I'd rather see something more
concrete than that.

I am leading this defence, aren't I?

Members of the jury, there has been a
great deal of speculation and

about the defendant, which it seems,
judging by the prosecution case, has

little basis in fact.

The defense has always sought to prove
that the defendant worked within the

regulations with care and compassion.

And she has.

very movingly and courageously stood up
to answer those accusations.

Well, you'll be pleased to hear that
we've finished our own investigation and

don't think that you cheated.

I told you I didn't.

That was wonderful.

The police found Suki never got near the
questions, didn't they?

Absolutely.

So can I cash my check now?

Well, don't you remember the disclaimer
you signed?

The what?

Mo signed a contract saying that she had
nothing to do with the company and its

employees. Suki didn't get her on the
programme.

She just made sure the letter got
through, the producer chose her.

Well, I'm sorry, but we've checked with
our accountants and our legal department

and we're not obliged to pay a penny.

Sorry.

Can't do anything.

The trial's over.

There's one thing I must do.

Somehow or other, I've got to tell her
father.

Not looking forward to this.

Would the foreman of the jury please
stand?

Do you find the defendant guilty or not
guilty of murder?

Not guilty.

And is that the verdict of you all? It
is.

You must understand that the prosecution
will alert the police.

Mr. Rage, your daughter needs help.

Thank you.

What's wrong?

Why aren't you happy?

Oh, I'm going to get you some help.

What?

I just heard about the incident in the
cell last night.

Drinking lavatory water, trying to make
herself sick.

Classic symptoms.

I wish I'd looked at the note more
carefully.

Okay, then we go through every other
place she ever worked. The other cases,

see? And then the evidence you dug out.
No, you dug out.

will be crucial.

Good result, I hope?

Well, in one way, yeah.

Henry.

Have I missed the serial killer?

You handed a piece of paper to the
prosecution which relates to her aunt

possibly having a similar experience
with morphine. All I knew was she'd died

from natural causes.

This is just like Gilda, isn't it?

Ethically, I can't comment on that.

My client still insists on her
innocence.

But you did your best to warn the
prosecution, didn't you? I passed on

evidence that I was hoping might have
helped us.

Thank you.

For a defence barrister, that's very
public -spirited.

I'd better start looking at these other
deaths, trying to save my career.

How was the GBH in these?

Victory for common sense.

I lost.

Did you get the papers yesterday?

No.

The Sunday filth.

They were so unfair to Mo.

I spoke with the editor. Well, he's a
friend of mine.

And they must have started a campaign.

I don't believe a word of it. It was
poor.

I thought, this has got to be a good
story. I walked in there.

They bit my hand off.

See, the company just rang and offered
me half the money.

I said no.

And then they caved in.

Thank you.
