1

2
00:00:41,780 --> 00:00:44,419


3
00:00:57,020 --> 00:00:59,534
Are you a good boy? Hey?

4
00:01:10,500 --> 00:01:13,253
I know for a fact he's busy all morning.

5
00:01:13,460 --> 00:01:17,169
- But if you Let me look in the diary...
- Can't he spare five minutes?

6
00:01:17,380 --> 00:01:20,133
If you could come back
at the end of the day...

7
00:01:20,340 --> 00:01:21,978
 I can't.
- What's this?

8
00:01:22,180 --> 00:01:25,172
- Doctor, sorry to bother you...
- I was telling Mrs Richards...

9
00:01:25,380 --> 00:01:28,178
...my boy hasn't been right...
...she needs an appointment...

10
00:01:28,380 --> 00:01:30,814
Shut up.

11
00:01:31,020 --> 00:01:35,252
Thank you. You're Mrs Richards?

12
00:01:35,460 --> 00:01:37,496
- I saw your son last week. Gavin.
- Bobby.

13
00:01:37,700 --> 00:01:40,214
Has he got something else
lodged up his nostril?

14
00:01:40,420 --> 00:01:44,459
He's got blisters. His
hands, his mouth. Bobby!

15
00:01:45,300 --> 00:01:47,689
- 
- Get out!

16
00:01:47,900 --> 00:01:50,892
Not you, the dog. Come through.

17
00:01:51,100 --> 00:01:52,897
- 
- 

18
00:01:53,100 --> 00:01:58,049
Shut the door. Come
on. Go through. Go on.

19
00:02:05,180 --> 00:02:09,014
It's a skin infection.
Highly contagious. Impetigo.

20
00:02:09,220 --> 00:02:12,690
I'll prescribe some antibiotic
cream. Wash his face four times a day,

21
00:02:12,900 --> 00:02:15,289
and then apply the
cream to the blisters.

22
00:02:15,500 --> 00:02:18,060
- have to stay home a couple of days.
- A couple of days?!

23
00:02:18,260 --> 00:02:20,820
That's what I said.
No contact with others.

24
00:02:21,020 --> 00:02:24,137
No sharing of toys
or towels or clothing.

25
00:02:24,340 --> 00:02:27,138
And you mustn't scratch at
all. Cut his fingernails.

26
00:02:27,340 --> 00:02:30,730
- I can't keep him home. I've gotta work.
- get your husband to help.

27
00:02:30,940 --> 00:02:34,615
If I mention impetigo, he'll ditch
his girlfriend, drive from Glasgow

28
00:02:34,820 --> 00:02:36,811
and give our marriage one more try.

29
00:02:37,020 --> 00:02:38,897
Good.

30
00:02:39,100 --> 00:02:42,251


31
00:02:42,460 --> 00:02:44,735


32
00:02:44,940 --> 00:02:48,694
- You're gonna be the new head-teacher?
- It's not for me to say, Peter.

33
00:02:48,900 --> 00:02:50,618
Will you do something
about the IT department?

34
00:02:50,820 --> 00:02:52,970
- What it department?
- Exactly.

35
00:02:53,180 --> 00:02:54,579
 OK, everybody.

36
00:02:55,580 --> 00:02:59,573
Take that to Mrs Tishell. She'll give
you the tablets. One in the morning,

37
00:02:59,780 --> 00:03:01,611
and one...

38
00:03:01,820 --> 00:03:05,449
one in the evening before going to bed.

39
00:03:05,660 --> 00:03:09,414
Or you can just die.
Your decision. Who's next?

40
00:03:09,620 --> 00:03:11,611
Cameron Paris.

41
00:03:11,820 --> 00:03:14,129
 Cameron Paris!
- He's not deaf.

42
00:03:14,340 --> 00:03:15,614
He is, actually.

43
00:03:17,020 --> 00:03:19,898
Er, right. Through you go.

44
00:03:22,460 --> 00:03:24,735
Can you get this dog out of here?

45
00:03:26,780 --> 00:03:28,657
Now.

46
00:03:30,180 --> 00:03:32,774


47
00:03:38,980 --> 00:03:40,538
Heard anything?

48
00:03:40,740 --> 00:03:45,894
As of 6pm last night, which was
the cut-off point for applications,

49
00:03:46,100 --> 00:03:49,092
it's between you and
two external candidates.

50
00:03:49,300 --> 00:03:52,815
- have I got a chance?
- I'd say the odds are pretty good.

51
00:03:53,020 --> 00:03:55,170
About three to one.

52
00:03:55,380 --> 00:03:58,372
 Oi, oi, oi. Carry on, Matthew.

53
00:03:59,460 --> 00:04:02,258
He woke up this morning
and he was stone deaf.

54
00:04:02,460 --> 00:04:05,611
Hmm. I'm just going
to talk to your mother.

55
00:04:05,820 --> 00:04:07,378
Sorry?

56
00:04:08,180 --> 00:04:12,139
There's a build-up of
fluid in his auditory canal.

57
00:04:12,340 --> 00:04:16,128
- It's bad news, I'm afraid.
- Good God.

58
00:04:16,340 --> 00:04:21,016
I'm sorry to tell you, but it's only a
matter of time before his head explodes.

59
00:04:21,220 --> 00:04:22,892
What?!

60
00:04:23,540 --> 00:04:24,893
Back to school, I think.

61
00:04:25,100 --> 00:04:28,012
Cameron, you are in big trouble!

62
00:04:29,740 --> 00:04:32,857
Sorry, Doc, he's always
trying for time off.

63
00:04:33,060 --> 00:04:35,654
You won't tell his teacher
about this? I mean...

64
00:04:35,860 --> 00:04:38,658
I know you probably
have to in your position.

65
00:04:38,860 --> 00:04:41,454
- my position being?
- You're one of the governors.

66
00:04:41,660 --> 00:04:42,934
No, I'm not.

67
00:04:43,140 --> 00:04:44,459
Yes, you are.

68
00:04:44,660 --> 00:04:46,173
Since when?

69
00:04:46,380 --> 00:04:49,929
I don't know. But there
is a meeting in your diary.

70
00:04:50,140 --> 00:04:55,817
Look. Friday. 12.30. School governors.

71
00:04:56,020 --> 00:04:59,296


72
00:04:59,500 --> 00:05:01,331
 Mr Sands.

73
00:05:01,540 --> 00:05:06,295
Can you tell me why anybody would
think I was a governor of this school?

74
00:05:06,500 --> 00:05:09,537
Oh, Dr Sim was a community
governor before you.

75
00:05:09,740 --> 00:05:12,300
Dr Blake before him.

76
00:05:12,500 --> 00:05:16,015
- And?
- And you said you'd be happy to help.

77
00:05:16,220 --> 00:05:19,098
- when Did I say this?
- in the letter you sent.

78
00:05:19,300 --> 00:05:22,610
- What letter?
- I'll show you. I've got it in my office.

79
00:05:22,820 --> 00:05:28,019
- Did I sign This letter?
- Yes. At least it was signed on your behalf.

80
00:05:28,220 --> 00:05:30,575
- by my receptionist?
- Elaine, yes.

81
00:05:30,780 --> 00:05:34,853
Who is an imbecile, which I would
suggest renders your letter null and void.

82
00:05:35,060 --> 00:05:39,451
Ooh! Oh. Are you all
right? Are you OK, Martin?

83
00:05:39,660 --> 00:05:41,969
Yes, fine. Never better. Thank you.

84
00:05:42,180 --> 00:05:45,889
If you can't make the meeting, we'll
have to reschedule the interviews.

85
00:05:46,100 --> 00:05:49,331
- What?
- Martin doesn't want to be a governor.

86
00:05:49,540 --> 00:05:54,216
- But I... l'm... l'm all geared up for Friday.
- I don't understand.

87
00:05:54,420 --> 00:05:56,980
Louisa's one of the
candidates for the headship.

88
00:05:57,180 --> 00:05:59,933
We hoped the Board could
appoint someone this week.

89
00:06:00,140 --> 00:06:03,496
Martin, we need to get
on with this. Please.

90
00:06:04,860 --> 00:06:07,932
- All right, I'll be there.
- Thank you.

91
00:06:08,140 --> 00:06:11,450
Don't expect any favours, though.

92
00:06:11,660 --> 00:06:14,128
Of course not.

93
00:06:16,820 --> 00:06:18,299
Right.

94
00:06:19,220 --> 00:06:22,974
- Tom, Connor, Amelio. Chess Club?
- Yes, Miss.

95
00:06:35,980 --> 00:06:39,655
- Hi, Mum.
- All right, love?

96
00:06:39,860 --> 00:06:44,172
- How was your day?
- Boring. It's always boring.

97
00:06:45,740 --> 00:06:47,253
You've got some post.

98
00:06:47,460 --> 00:06:50,372
Oh, if it's junk, tear it up.

99
00:06:50,580 --> 00:06:53,048
Uh-oh. Final reminder.

100
00:06:53,260 --> 00:06:56,093
We haven't paid the electric bill.

101
00:06:56,300 --> 00:06:58,052
Oh, God. 

102
00:06:58,260 --> 00:07:02,094
It's OK. I'm sure they won't cut us off.

103
00:07:03,300 --> 00:07:05,370
I'll go and get your inhaler.

104
00:07:05,580 --> 00:07:08,856
- Thanks, love.
- Are you open yet? We're starving.

105
00:07:09,060 --> 00:07:12,769
We'd like two cod and chips,
two chicken and ham pies...

106
00:07:12,980 --> 00:07:15,938
- 
- Quick!

107
00:07:16,140 --> 00:07:18,256
- Mum!
- I know, I know!

108
00:07:18,460 --> 00:07:22,009
Whoa. Don't touch it. It's OK,
love. It's all right, it's fine.

109
00:07:22,220 --> 00:07:25,610
Best get the doc on this
one, I think. OK, OK.

110
00:07:25,820 --> 00:07:28,380
Breathe now. Breathe, breathe, breathe.

111
00:07:30,500 --> 00:07:33,333
- Doc.
- Al.

112
00:07:36,580 --> 00:07:39,890
- Right, Bert. Give me some space.
- Oh, sorry. Yeah, OK, Doc.

113
00:07:40,100 --> 00:07:43,012
All right, Mrs Cronk. Breathe slowly.

114
00:07:43,220 --> 00:07:46,178
- I Just need a moment.
- Yeah, try not to speak.

115
00:07:46,380 --> 00:07:49,611
Do you have any cling film?
Got to keep the air from it.

116
00:07:49,820 --> 00:07:51,651
- It's a nasty burn that.
- Nasty.

117
00:07:51,860 --> 00:07:53,532
Gonna call an ambulance.

118
00:07:53,740 --> 00:07:56,812
- I can't leave the shop.
- Shush.

119
00:07:57,780 --> 00:08:02,808
This is Dr Ellingham. I need an ambulance
for the fish and chip shop on Rose Street.

120
00:08:03,020 --> 00:08:08,378
A patient with an acute asthma attack
and severe burns to an arm and hand.

121
00:08:08,580 --> 00:08:10,855
No, that's not quick enough.

122
00:08:11,060 --> 00:08:14,530
Oh, you work it out.
Ambulance is on its way.

123
00:08:14,740 --> 00:08:16,651
 Don't make me go.

124
00:08:16,860 --> 00:08:18,816
Mum, you have to go.

125
00:08:19,020 --> 00:08:21,454
We need the money. I can't go.

126
00:08:21,660 --> 00:08:24,811
- we Could run the place for you.
- 

127
00:08:25,020 --> 00:08:28,012
- I've experience in catering.
- We're plumbers.

128
00:08:28,220 --> 00:08:32,293
I know. We could keep the place ticking
over for you until you're better. OK?

129
00:08:32,500 --> 00:08:39,338
What's that? Oh, no. You're
very welcome, love. No, really.

130
00:08:39,540 --> 00:08:41,496
 lt'll be fine.

131
00:08:48,020 --> 00:08:52,810
They're keeping her in for a couple of
days. They've put her on a nebulizer.

132
00:08:53,020 --> 00:08:55,818
For the burn, she's on
morphine. Where have you been?

133
00:08:56,020 --> 00:08:59,092
Talking to her doctor, but
clearly I needn't have bothered.

134
00:08:59,300 --> 00:09:02,292
- Mum's worried about where I'll sleep.
- What's wrong with your house?

135
00:09:02,500 --> 00:09:07,528
Nothing, except that I'll be all by myself,
which I'm guessing is against the law,

136
00:09:07,740 --> 00:09:11,130
so I'll have to stay with an adult.

137
00:09:11,420 --> 00:09:15,015
Er, no. Out of the
question. Not with me, no.

138
00:09:15,220 --> 00:09:21,090
- Why?
- Because, erm, it's not possible, obviously.

139
00:09:21,300 --> 00:09:23,734


140
00:09:30,300 --> 00:09:33,178
Oh, Peter, I heard about
your mum. I'm so sorry.

141
00:09:33,380 --> 00:09:36,577
- Peter was hoping He Could stay with you.
- No, I wasn't.

142
00:09:36,780 --> 00:09:39,169
Well, erm... I don't know.

143
00:09:40,260 --> 00:09:44,173
Well, as I've just explained to
Peter, er, you are a... a woman.

144
00:09:44,380 --> 00:09:46,336
Oh, glad you noticed.

145
00:09:46,540 --> 00:09:49,930
Yeah, years of medical training.
So, that's all settled, then?

146
00:09:50,140 --> 00:09:51,778
- Please. I'll be quiet.
- Shh.

147
00:09:51,980 --> 00:09:55,973
Well, I'd love to but I'm not
sure, Martin. It's not a great time.

148
00:09:56,180 --> 00:09:58,978
I've got a lot on, Peter.
It's my interview on Friday.

149
00:09:59,180 --> 00:10:01,740
I'm sure you'll work it out. Goodnight.

150
00:10:01,940 --> 00:10:04,329
But, erm...

151
00:10:04,820 --> 00:10:09,610
Right. OK, then, Peter. D'you
wanna come in? Nice to see you.

152
00:10:24,420 --> 00:10:28,777
- can I watch TV?
- No. I told you. It's nearly bedtime.

153
00:10:28,980 --> 00:10:33,770
- It's nearly 9pm. It's not the same thing.
- Peter, please, I need to concentrate.

154
00:10:33,980 --> 00:10:37,655
Just... just... sit quietly.

155
00:10:47,420 --> 00:10:49,456
What you reading?

156
00:10:49,660 --> 00:10:51,457
Stuff.

157
00:10:52,780 --> 00:10:55,738
- What stuff?
- Boring stuff, but stuff I need to know.

158
00:10:55,940 --> 00:10:59,057
Now, for the last time, will you shush.

159
00:11:00,100 --> 00:11:05,618
- I'm bored.
- That is not my fault. I didn't ask you here.

160
00:11:06,740 --> 00:11:09,732
I'm sorry. I... I didn't mean that.

161
00:11:10,580 --> 00:11:14,698
- You're not like this in school.
- What am I like, then?

162
00:11:14,900 --> 00:11:16,652
Kinder.

163
00:11:16,860 --> 00:11:19,613
Peter, in school you
have my full attention.

164
00:11:19,820 --> 00:11:22,380
And out of school, I have other things.

165
00:11:22,580 --> 00:11:26,050
See, people have other
things on their minds.

166
00:11:26,260 --> 00:11:28,694
OK, I'll go then.

167
00:11:28,900 --> 00:11:33,530
Thanks, Peter. Hey, and don't
forget to brush your teeth.

168
00:11:36,540 --> 00:11:39,338
- 'Night.
- 'Night.

169
00:11:50,460 --> 00:11:52,815


170
00:12:00,540 --> 00:12:04,374
- Who is it?
- 

171
00:12:05,900 --> 00:12:10,098
- Peter.
- Miss Glasson Had things on her mind.

172
00:12:16,180 --> 00:12:18,774


173
00:12:20,300 --> 00:12:21,528
Hello?

174
00:12:21,780 --> 00:12:23,930
 Have you lost something?

175
00:12:24,140 --> 00:12:25,619
What are you talking about?

176
00:12:25,820 --> 00:12:28,095
- Peter Cronk.
- Sorry?

177
00:12:29,460 --> 00:12:31,496
What?!

178
00:12:31,700 --> 00:12:33,816
He says you threw him out.

179
00:12:34,020 --> 00:12:38,491
Well... the little... From
the room, not the house.

180
00:12:38,700 --> 00:12:40,975
Look, I needed a bit
of quiet, that's all.

181
00:12:41,180 --> 00:12:43,614
I told you I'd got a
lot of reading to do.

182
00:12:43,820 --> 00:12:46,380
Well, finish your reading
and come and get him.

183
00:12:46,580 --> 00:12:49,174
You couldn't let him
stay there with you?

184
00:12:49,380 --> 00:12:53,009
No, I'm sorry. I'm, erm...
l'm simply not equipped.

185
00:12:53,220 --> 00:12:54,938
Peter?

186
00:12:58,140 --> 00:13:01,576
Peter! Oh, God, he...
he's fallen asleep now.

187
00:13:02,660 --> 00:13:06,812
Well, in that case we'd better
not disturb him, then. Goodnight.

188
00:13:07,020 --> 00:13:09,693


189
00:13:11,100 --> 00:13:13,011
You don't have to walk me to school.

190
00:13:13,220 --> 00:13:16,417
You're my responsibility until
I deliver you to Miss Glasson,

191
00:13:16,620 --> 00:13:19,896
at which point you become
her responsibility, finally.

192
00:13:20,100 --> 00:13:22,136
- can I have some crisps?
- No.

193
00:13:22,340 --> 00:13:25,377
- I'm hungry.
- you should have eaten more breakfast.

194
00:13:25,580 --> 00:13:28,856
- I'll check on your mother today.
- Could I Come with you?

195
00:13:29,060 --> 00:13:32,689
No. Miss Glasson can
take you to the hospital.

196
00:13:32,900 --> 00:13:35,892
- You'll stay with her from now on.
- I don't want to.

197
00:13:36,100 --> 00:13:37,374
I don't care.

198
00:13:37,580 --> 00:13:40,492


199
00:13:42,780 --> 00:13:44,736
- Mrs Richards?
- Oh, Doctor, hello.

200
00:13:44,940 --> 00:13:47,773
- Did you bring your son to school?
- Yeah.

201
00:13:47,980 --> 00:13:50,733
Did his highly contagious
impetigo clear up?

202
00:13:50,940 --> 00:13:54,694
- Miss Glasson said I should bring him.
- If she said, then it's OK

203
00:13:54,900 --> 00:13:57,334
- feel free to infect the entire school.
- But Miss...

204
00:13:57,540 --> 00:14:00,134
Thank you. Well done.

205
00:14:00,340 --> 00:14:03,218


206
00:14:03,420 --> 00:14:05,092
 Stop it! Stop it!

207
00:14:05,300 --> 00:14:07,734
Oi! Oi!

208
00:14:07,940 --> 00:14:10,534
You two, get off! Get off.

209
00:14:10,740 --> 00:14:12,731
Everyone inside now.

210
00:14:12,940 --> 00:14:15,579
What d'you think you're doing, Bobby?

211
00:14:15,780 --> 00:14:19,170
- He called me spotty.
- I did not. Spotty, spotty.

212
00:14:19,380 --> 00:14:20,938
Just stop it.

213
00:14:21,140 --> 00:14:23,734
Louisa. Can I have a word?

214
00:14:23,940 --> 00:14:26,329
You two, wait inside.

215
00:14:26,540 --> 00:14:29,259
Could you call me Miss
Glasson in front of the kids?

216
00:14:29,460 --> 00:14:33,817
I gave clear instructions that the
impetigo case should stay at home.

217
00:14:34,020 --> 00:14:38,491
Bobby Richards, the impetigo
case, his mother works.

218
00:14:38,700 --> 00:14:43,490
For a lot of people, work
is an economic necessity.

219
00:14:43,700 --> 00:14:47,170
This is a medical necessity. Unless
isolated, the disease spreads.

220
00:14:47,380 --> 00:14:50,099
- is that clear?
- Yes, Doctor.

221
00:14:50,300 --> 00:14:52,052
So you'll send the boy home?

222
00:14:52,260 --> 00:14:54,854
I will deal with the
situation straight away.

223
00:14:55,060 --> 00:14:57,016
Thank you.

224
00:14:59,020 --> 00:15:01,534
- Oh, Peter.
- What?

225
00:15:01,740 --> 00:15:05,779
- Look, I am sorry about last night.
- Yeah, whatever.

226
00:15:05,980 --> 00:15:09,052
Oh, Peter... It's not like
you're completely innocent.

227
00:15:09,260 --> 00:15:13,776
You can't to walk out in the middle
of the night without talking to anyone.

228
00:15:13,980 --> 00:15:16,653
Hmm? Hey, Petey?

229
00:15:17,300 --> 00:15:20,451
- Call me Peter in front of the kids.
- Come on.

230
00:15:22,020 --> 00:15:24,011
Oi, inside.

231
00:15:36,380 --> 00:15:39,178


232
00:15:39,380 --> 00:15:41,689
Hi there, Doc. All right? Got a minute?

233
00:15:41,900 --> 00:15:43,731
Er, no.

234
00:15:43,940 --> 00:15:47,979
Yeah, I've just got some questions.
Bit delicate. Bit personal.

235
00:15:48,180 --> 00:15:50,819
- D.O. B?
- What?

236
00:15:51,020 --> 00:15:52,851
- Date of birth.
- What for?

237
00:15:53,060 --> 00:15:55,449
I have to check to see
if you've got a record.

238
00:15:55,660 --> 00:15:57,252
Well, I haven't got a record.

239
00:15:57,460 --> 00:16:01,817
I know. I have to go through the motions.
If you're looking after a young boy,

240
00:16:02,020 --> 00:16:05,979
- I have to be sure you're a fit guardian.
- I'm not looking after anybody.

241
00:16:06,180 --> 00:16:08,819
Have you ever been arrested
for a sexual offence?

242
00:16:09,020 --> 00:16:11,853
- Absolutely not.
- Bet He has. Pervert.

243
00:16:12,060 --> 00:16:15,211
You can tell by the look on his face.

244
00:16:15,420 --> 00:16:17,729
I am not looking after Peter Cronk.

245
00:16:17,940 --> 00:16:21,728
That's not what Peter says. Found
him on his own, up on the top road,

246
00:16:21,940 --> 00:16:24,408
waiting for a bus to see his mum.

247
00:16:24,620 --> 00:16:26,258
- you can Take him.
- No.

248
00:16:26,460 --> 00:16:28,655
You're so concerned about
him you look after him.

249
00:16:28,860 --> 00:16:30,578
- I'm on duty.
- So am I.

250
00:16:30,780 --> 00:16:34,932
But are you likely to get called
away to deal with an armed robbery?

251
00:16:35,140 --> 00:16:37,813
No. Are you?

252
00:16:38,620 --> 00:16:40,451
Come on, Doc, the lad needs you.

253
00:16:40,660 --> 00:16:45,450
Oh, good, you're still here.
Can you look at Cameron's hand?

254
00:16:45,660 --> 00:16:49,494
Well, congratulations. Impetigo.

255
00:16:49,700 --> 00:16:53,329
Erm, er, follow me. I'll
write you a prescription.

256
00:17:04,300 --> 00:17:07,815
Doc says he'd love to take you to Truro.

257
00:17:09,460 --> 00:17:10,779
Thanks.

258
00:17:11,620 --> 00:17:16,375
How can I teach you the secrets of
fine cuisine when you're over there?

259
00:17:16,580 --> 00:17:19,731
Plumbing's what we know. We're
gonna make it worse for the woman.

260
00:17:19,940 --> 00:17:23,774
I got my merit badge in food
preparation before you were born.

261
00:17:24,580 --> 00:17:27,048
You haven't even put
the oil on to heat yet.

262
00:17:27,260 --> 00:17:29,933
- What?
- Oil.

263
00:17:30,140 --> 00:17:32,096
I'll turn it on when there's a customer.

264
00:17:32,300 --> 00:17:35,053
You've seen their electricity
bill. It's a whopper.

265
00:17:35,260 --> 00:17:38,809
- that oil is gonna Take an hour to heat up.
- I know.

266
00:17:39,020 --> 00:17:42,330
We're not gonna make money and we're
meant to start on Mr Baskin's cesspit.

267
00:17:42,540 --> 00:17:45,373
When I say I do something, so be it.

268
00:17:45,580 --> 00:17:48,936
But how is it helping if you
run her business into the ground?

269
00:17:49,140 --> 00:17:52,496
- Well, where are you going?
- You stick to your gourmet cuisine,

270
00:17:52,700 --> 00:17:54,292
and I'll stick to the plumbing.

271
00:17:54,500 --> 00:17:56,775
Don't mind him, he's a teenager.

272
00:17:56,980 --> 00:17:59,938
Dad, I'm twenty-five.
Twenty-five.

273
00:18:01,260 --> 00:18:03,820
- How's Mum?
- Yeah, we're just gonna see her.

274
00:18:04,020 --> 00:18:07,376
- Well, send our love. Hello, Doc.
- Bert.

275
00:18:07,580 --> 00:18:10,890
Can I try some fish? Just checking.

276
00:18:11,100 --> 00:18:13,056
Mum would want to know.

277
00:18:14,020 --> 00:18:15,419
Fish?

278
00:18:15,620 --> 00:18:18,578
- So, Bert and Al are doing a good job?
- Definitely.

279
00:18:18,780 --> 00:18:20,736
- Will you thank 'em?
- of course.

280
00:18:20,940 --> 00:18:23,738
You'll be lucky if you
get the chance to thank Al.

281
00:18:23,940 --> 00:18:27,535
- What?
- It's nothing, Mum. Nice flowers.

282
00:18:27,740 --> 00:18:31,050
It'll be a while before Bert
and Al work together again.

283
00:18:31,260 --> 00:18:33,774
Bert's on his own?

284
00:18:33,980 --> 00:18:38,610
- He'll burn my shop down.
- No, he won't. Will he, Doc?

285
00:18:38,820 --> 00:18:43,496
No, course he won't. Can't
even turn the fryers on.

286
00:18:43,700 --> 00:18:49,377
He's, he's selling... uncooked
fish? 

287
00:18:49,580 --> 00:18:53,016
- Mum? Mum?
- I'll get the nurse.

288
00:19:01,180 --> 00:19:04,411
- Why Did you say that?
- I was Just trying to put her At ease.

289
00:19:04,620 --> 00:19:07,657
Maybe next time you could put
her in a coma or something.

290
00:19:07,860 --> 00:19:09,578
Can I get a video?

291
00:19:09,780 --> 00:19:11,532
Why don't you read a book?

292
00:19:11,740 --> 00:19:14,300
When I was a child I
didn't watch videos.

293
00:19:14,500 --> 00:19:18,049
- Had They invented TV then?
- Oh, very funny.

294
00:19:18,900 --> 00:19:21,368
I'll get an educational one.

295
00:19:30,780 --> 00:19:32,816
Wash your hands after touching that.

296
00:19:33,020 --> 00:19:35,375
Isn't it good to build
up your immune system?

297
00:19:35,580 --> 00:19:38,777
Just... 

298
00:20:11,660 --> 00:20:13,730


299
00:20:21,260 --> 00:20:24,172


300
00:20:28,620 --> 00:20:30,338
- Hi.
- Er, come in.

301
00:20:30,540 --> 00:20:35,136
Um, I just wondered
how... how Mrs Cronk is?

302
00:20:35,340 --> 00:20:37,615
Ah. Progressing.

303
00:20:38,420 --> 00:20:41,492
Er, Martin, I understand
about patient confidentiality,

304
00:20:41,700 --> 00:20:44,089
but a bit more than
progressing, please.

305
00:20:44,300 --> 00:20:46,973
Right, yes, she should be
home in a couple of days.

306
00:20:47,180 --> 00:20:51,378
Her asthma's under
control. More or less.

307
00:20:51,580 --> 00:20:54,458
I'm gonna refer her to a
respiratory physiotherapist.

308
00:20:54,660 --> 00:20:56,412
- Oh, right. That's good.
- Yeah.

309
00:20:56,620 --> 00:21:00,818
- And, um, thanks for looking after Peter.
- Ah, yeah. Well.

310
00:21:01,020 --> 00:21:02,738
It's funny the way he looks up to you.

311
00:21:02,940 --> 00:21:06,137
Yeah, it's probably 'cause I
don't have a criminal record.

312
00:21:06,340 --> 00:21:10,936
Yeah. I'll... l'll just
say hello before I go.

313
00:21:11,780 --> 00:21:13,930
- Hi, there.
- Hi.

314
00:21:14,140 --> 00:21:17,132
What are you watching?
Martin? Turn it off.

315
00:21:17,340 --> 00:21:20,457
They're just about to eat the
virgin's eyeballs, and then...

316
00:21:20,660 --> 00:21:22,571
Off. Now.

317
00:21:22,780 --> 00:21:24,736
- Martin.
- you said it was educational.

318
00:21:24,940 --> 00:21:29,855
Yes. And he's just said the
words "virgin's eyeballs".

319
00:21:30,060 --> 00:21:31,618
Is that bad?

320
00:21:42,420 --> 00:21:44,809


321
00:21:55,860 --> 00:21:57,896
- Dad?
- Oh. Hello, son.

322
00:21:59,620 --> 00:22:02,009
- Bit quiet?
- I've been run off my feet.

323
00:22:02,220 --> 00:22:06,975
I don't know how Mrs Cronk does it. Another
night like this, I'll need a bigger till.

324
00:22:07,180 --> 00:22:09,978
- You'll have change for a fifty, then.
- Oh, right.

325
00:22:10,180 --> 00:22:14,332
- got a bloke waiting. Finished His boiler.
- Good.

326
00:22:16,500 --> 00:22:20,049
- Change?
- Sorry, yes.

327
00:22:20,980 --> 00:22:22,811


328
00:22:24,180 --> 00:22:27,013
- Sorry, gets stuck sometimes.
- 

329
00:22:27,220 --> 00:22:28,972
- Nope, sorry.
- Let me.

330
00:22:29,180 --> 00:22:32,456
Oh, I'm telling you, it's broke.

331
00:22:36,980 --> 00:22:38,936
You been robbed?

332
00:22:39,140 --> 00:22:42,496
Wednesday's a bad night for fish.

333
00:22:44,980 --> 00:22:47,448
Why don't you try Mrs
Richards down the pub?

334
00:22:47,660 --> 00:22:49,616
She'll sort you out.

335
00:22:54,260 --> 00:22:57,491
You see, ten year-olds don't
always know what's best for them.

336
00:22:57,700 --> 00:22:59,770
I did.

337
00:22:59,980 --> 00:23:01,857
Yes. But, um...

338
00:23:03,180 --> 00:23:05,853
You're a bit different
from the rest of us.

339
00:23:06,060 --> 00:23:11,054
I'm not saying there's anything wrong
with that. I quite like the way you are.

340
00:23:11,260 --> 00:23:12,978
Do you?

341
00:23:13,180 --> 00:23:18,971
Yes. And... and about this morning,
you know, I do listen to what you say.

342
00:23:19,180 --> 00:23:22,172
There's nothing more important
to me than the kids' welfare,

343
00:23:22,380 --> 00:23:26,293
and there's no way I'd do anything
to put their health at risk.

344
00:23:26,500 --> 00:23:29,697
- Why are you being like this?
- What?

345
00:23:29,900 --> 00:23:33,973
Like this. It's nothing
to do with Friday, is it?

346
00:23:34,180 --> 00:23:36,899
- Friday?
- your interview.

347
00:23:37,100 --> 00:23:38,692
You will have my full support

348
00:23:38,900 --> 00:23:42,688
but only if you're the
best candidate for the job.

349
00:23:42,900 --> 00:23:45,653
- Why do you always do this?
- What?

350
00:24:15,780 --> 00:24:17,850
 Doc?

351
00:24:19,340 --> 00:24:22,412
 Doc?
 What?!

352
00:24:22,620 --> 00:24:25,578
It's nothing. It doesn't matter.

353
00:24:27,260 --> 00:24:29,979
Come here. Peter.

354
00:24:30,180 --> 00:24:33,616
- What is it?
- I'm all itchy.

355
00:24:33,820 --> 00:24:35,811
Let me see.

356
00:24:38,740 --> 00:24:41,300
It's what Bobby's got, isn't it?

357
00:24:44,180 --> 00:24:47,377
 It hasn't been long,
but they're worse, aren't they?

358
00:24:47,580 --> 00:24:49,218
I did everything you told me to.

359
00:24:49,420 --> 00:24:51,809
You've been applying the
cream four times a day?

360
00:24:52,020 --> 00:24:55,490
Twice yesterday, and Miss Glasson
took care of it during school.

361
00:24:55,700 --> 00:24:58,339
What? He's still going to school?

362
00:24:58,540 --> 00:25:00,417
Yeah. Miss Glasson said.

363
00:25:00,620 --> 00:25:05,171
Right. Miss Glasson
said. Did she? Look up.

364
00:25:07,460 --> 00:25:09,655
Yeah, impetigo.

365
00:25:10,660 --> 00:25:13,811
Has Lucy been in contact with
Gavin Richards or Cameron Paris?

366
00:25:14,020 --> 00:25:16,250
Of course she has.
Portwenn has one doctor

367
00:25:16,460 --> 00:25:19,099
and 966 people who know better.

368
00:25:21,740 --> 00:25:23,617
Ugh, sick.

369
00:25:23,820 --> 00:25:26,971
- That's rank.
- Oh, God, I hate them.

370
00:25:41,260 --> 00:25:42,818
Louisa.

371
00:25:43,020 --> 00:25:44,692
You can't stay away from me.

372
00:25:44,900 --> 00:25:47,209
You allowed infected
children into school.

373
00:25:47,420 --> 00:25:50,093
As a consequence, three
more pupils have impetigo.

374
00:25:50,300 --> 00:25:53,019
- you ignore my advice?
- Martin, please...

375
00:25:53,220 --> 00:25:56,610
What would happen if everyone in
Portwenn ignored medical advice?

376
00:25:56,820 --> 00:26:01,257
Disease would rampage. Bodies will
pile up in the streets awaiting burial.

377
00:26:01,460 --> 00:26:03,815
Rats scrabbling through cottages.

378
00:26:04,020 --> 00:26:07,217
- I think you should listen...
- In years to come, when archaeologists

379
00:26:07,420 --> 00:26:10,412
unearth the ruins of
Portwenn, someone will ask:

380
00:26:10,620 --> 00:26:13,418
How did this unspeakable

381
00:26:13,620 --> 00:26:16,134
How? Because Miss Glasson said.

382
00:26:16,340 --> 00:26:19,810
I arranged for the sick kids to
be taught in separate classrooms.

383
00:26:20,020 --> 00:26:23,012
Well away from everyone else.
No one has swapped books,

384
00:26:23,220 --> 00:26:26,098
shared towels or done anything
they're not supposed to.

385
00:26:26,300 --> 00:26:29,610
It's not working because there
are three more cases of impetigo.

386
00:26:29,820 --> 00:26:33,290
That is not my fault! Or the fault
of this school. Is that clear?

387
00:26:33,500 --> 00:26:36,458
Very clear.

388
00:26:46,180 --> 00:26:47,408
Pauline.

389
00:26:47,620 --> 00:26:50,054
Peter, what are you
doing? You are contagious.

390
00:26:50,260 --> 00:26:52,933
I've told you, get in the kitchen.

391
00:26:53,820 --> 00:26:56,095
Mum called. She's coming
home this afternoon.

392
00:26:56,300 --> 00:26:58,734
- Wait a minute.
- 

393
00:26:58,940 --> 00:27:02,569
Write down everyone you've been in
contact with in the last 48 hours.

394
00:27:02,780 --> 00:27:04,611
All your friends.

395
00:27:04,820 --> 00:27:08,699
- I'm like you. Don't have any friends.
- 

396
00:27:08,900 --> 00:27:11,209
Oh, now why am I not
surprised to see you?

397
00:27:11,420 --> 00:27:15,493
- He's no better. If anything, he's worse.
- All right, go through.

398
00:27:17,140 --> 00:27:20,894
We've been applying the
ointment. We need some more.

399
00:27:21,100 --> 00:27:23,978
- But the cream hasn't worked.
- is it the wrong cream?

400
00:27:24,180 --> 00:27:27,855
- It's more likely to be the wrong infection.
- you made a mistake?

401
00:27:28,060 --> 00:27:30,255
It was a pertectly
reasonable hypothesis.

402
00:27:30,460 --> 00:27:31,973
If it's not impetigo, what is it?

403
00:27:32,180 --> 00:27:36,890
We'll find out when we get the
results. I'll give you a call. Please.

404
00:27:45,140 --> 00:27:48,132
Can you get this to the path
lab for analysis? A.s.a.p.

405
00:27:48,340 --> 00:27:51,491
- A.s.a.p.
- Yes. Er, thank you.

406
00:27:51,700 --> 00:27:54,089
Why are you sending it off for analysis?

407
00:27:54,300 --> 00:27:57,849
Ah, because there's a vague
chance that it's not impetigo.

408
00:27:58,060 --> 00:28:00,096
- is it bad?
- It's nothing to worry about.

409
00:28:00,300 --> 00:28:03,497
Give me that magazine and pen, please.

410
00:28:04,420 --> 00:28:07,059
Thanks, now get back in the kitchen.

411
00:28:08,940 --> 00:28:11,249
And don't touch that.

412
00:28:12,700 --> 00:28:14,531
- Right, Richard. Enjoy.
- Thanks.

413
00:28:14,740 --> 00:28:18,289
Ooh, ta. Ho, I'm gonna need
some more fish at this rate.

414
00:28:18,500 --> 00:28:20,058
- Yes, love?
- Cod And chips.

415
00:28:20,260 --> 00:28:21,739
- All right, Dad?
- Hello.

416
00:28:21,940 --> 00:28:23,817
You do this all by yourself, did you?

417
00:28:24,020 --> 00:28:28,059
- can you see anybody else helping me?
- No.

418
00:28:28,260 --> 00:28:30,774
Who taught you how to
cook overnight, then?

419
00:28:30,980 --> 00:28:33,972
Well, I taught myself,
didn't I? Trial and error.

420
00:28:34,180 --> 00:28:36,933
The secret of successful fish batter

421
00:28:37,140 --> 00:28:41,770
is no different than the
secret of a successful life.

422
00:28:41,980 --> 00:28:45,814
It's all in the wrist. Ta. Thank you.

423
00:28:47,620 --> 00:28:49,099
Mmm.

424
00:28:50,020 --> 00:28:51,294
- Right.
- Chips, please.

425
00:28:51,500 --> 00:28:53,172
Coming up.

426
00:29:05,420 --> 00:29:07,695
- Mum.
- Hello, love.

427
00:29:09,460 --> 00:29:10,779
 Oooh.

428
00:29:12,260 --> 00:29:13,852
Oh, what's that?

429
00:29:14,060 --> 00:29:16,813
- Doesn't matter.
- Well, what is it? Tell me.

430
00:29:17,020 --> 00:29:18,817
It's a mystery skin disease.

431
00:29:19,020 --> 00:29:21,011
We're waiting for the results.

432
00:29:21,220 --> 00:29:25,293
- Well, how did you get it?
- Quite easily. All His friends have it.

433
00:29:25,500 --> 00:29:30,016
It doesn't matter. Look
at all those customers.

434
00:29:30,580 --> 00:29:33,617
- there we are. Go light on the chips.
- Thank you, Bert.

435
00:29:33,820 --> 00:29:36,095
Oh, here she is. Welcome home.

436
00:29:36,300 --> 00:29:39,098
- 
- Thank you.

437
00:29:39,300 --> 00:29:42,576
I can't serve them quick
enough. Would you like something?

438
00:29:42,780 --> 00:29:46,614
No, thanks, Bert. I came
to say hello and thank you.

439
00:29:46,820 --> 00:29:49,539
You're very welcome. Do
you want me to carry on?

440
00:29:49,740 --> 00:29:52,777
No. No, I think I can take
over from now, Bert, thanks.

441
00:29:52,980 --> 00:29:56,814
No you don't, Mrs Cronk. Not with
that hand. Not for at least a week.

442
00:29:57,020 --> 00:29:58,499
Oh.

443
00:30:01,100 --> 00:30:03,534
I suppose it'll be all right.

444
00:30:05,740 --> 00:30:08,254
- I can help.
- Don't take this personally,

445
00:30:08,460 --> 00:30:13,056
but with a face like that, I think
you'd best leave it to me. Right?

446
00:30:14,340 --> 00:30:18,333
- Bye, Doc.
 Doreen, you ain't paid yet.

447
00:30:40,860 --> 00:30:43,169
What are you doing?

448
00:30:43,380 --> 00:30:45,689
What do you mean, what am I doing?

449
00:30:45,900 --> 00:30:49,779
You're selling the pub's
fish and chips, aren't you?

450
00:30:49,980 --> 00:30:54,258
Look, son. I'm just a good Samaritan
doing my best for a neighbour.

451
00:30:54,460 --> 00:30:56,655
Now she fell in the
gutter... or the batter.

452
00:30:56,860 --> 00:30:59,852
I could have walked on by, but
I chose to cross the street,

453
00:31:00,060 --> 00:31:02,858
give her a helping hand,
give her a few shekels.

454
00:31:03,060 --> 00:31:07,133
And cost her some as well. Look. Pub
isn't gonna give you this lot for free.

455
00:31:07,340 --> 00:31:10,298
Well, their charges are
a bit more than Mrs C's.

456
00:31:10,500 --> 00:31:14,937
Actually, quite a lot more. We'll have
to advise Mrs C her prices are a bit low.

457
00:31:15,140 --> 00:31:18,291
You mean you're paying more
than what you're getting?

458
00:31:20,660 --> 00:31:22,173
What are you gonna tell her?

459
00:31:22,380 --> 00:31:25,178
Welcome back. Here's your

460
00:31:25,380 --> 00:31:28,452
If you don't mind, my
food's getting a bit cold.

461
00:31:32,420 --> 00:31:36,095
Yes, now that is a
very, very good question.

462
00:31:37,540 --> 00:31:41,328
Enjoyment. Enjoyment is the
birthright of every child.

463
00:31:41,540 --> 00:31:45,453
And teaching should give children
the life chances that they deserve.

464
00:31:45,660 --> 00:31:50,176
Setting standards, aiming
high, this kind of thing.

465
00:31:50,380 --> 00:31:53,292
Blah, blah, blah. Yeah.

466
00:32:00,300 --> 00:32:01,858


467
00:32:02,060 --> 00:32:03,937
- Ellingham.
- Brian Deal.

468
00:32:04,140 --> 00:32:07,496
I've got the results from the
swab you sent me. Very interesting.

469
00:32:07,700 --> 00:32:11,170
- Why interesting?
- Seems it's not impetigo after all.

470
00:32:11,380 --> 00:32:16,613
You're dealing with a highly resistant staph
- erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae.

471
00:32:16,820 --> 00:32:18,538
That's a zoonosis, isn't it?

472
00:32:18,740 --> 00:32:22,494
It is indeed, very rare. I told
you it was very interesting.

473
00:32:22,700 --> 00:32:25,134
This staph can only be
passed through animals.

474
00:32:25,340 --> 00:32:28,298
I've not seen a bug as
interesting as this since...

475
00:32:28,500 --> 00:32:31,537
- 
- What's a zoonosis?

476
00:32:31,740 --> 00:32:33,378
What... what are you doing?!

477
00:32:33,580 --> 00:32:37,414
Don't listen to people's private
phone calls. And why are you here?

478
00:32:37,620 --> 00:32:39,850
Looking for my exercise book.

479
00:32:40,060 --> 00:32:44,178
You know I'll just look it up
anyway, so you might as well tell me.

480
00:32:44,380 --> 00:32:47,611
Er, zoonosis is a disease
passed from animals to humans.

481
00:32:47,820 --> 00:32:51,654
- like bird flu?
- Yeah.

482
00:32:51,860 --> 00:32:55,330
- So, are we gonna die?
- not soon enough for my liking.

483
00:32:55,540 --> 00:32:59,135
You've probably got time
to get home, if you run.

484
00:32:59,740 --> 00:33:02,049


485
00:33:07,580 --> 00:33:08,979
Right.

486
00:33:14,420 --> 00:33:17,890
Get PC Mylow. Tell him there's
a dangerous dog on the loose.

487
00:33:18,100 --> 00:33:21,570
I want it caught and put to sleep.

488
00:33:21,780 --> 00:33:24,169
- put to sleep?
- Destroyed, Pauline.

489
00:33:24,380 --> 00:33:29,534
Killed. Sent to that big
doggy basket in the sky.

490
00:33:34,740 --> 00:33:36,890
- 
- All right, Doc?

491
00:33:37,100 --> 00:33:39,660
- Fine.
- Yeah, I've, er, I've spoken to the vet.

492
00:33:39,860 --> 00:33:41,771
The dog can be treated.

493
00:33:41,980 --> 00:33:43,971
That's not enough. I want him dead.

494
00:33:44,180 --> 00:33:46,569
- the vet?
- Ha, ha.

495
00:33:46,780 --> 00:33:49,613
No, I've checked. This
isn't a notifiable disease.

496
00:33:49,820 --> 00:33:53,176
- You don't have the power.
- It's a dangerous dog.

497
00:33:53,380 --> 00:33:55,018
- But has He hurt anyone?
- Yes.

498
00:33:55,220 --> 00:33:57,939
Not by attacking them. He
didn't bite the children.

499
00:33:58,140 --> 00:34:01,928
So we can't go by the
Dangerous Dog Act of 1991.

500
00:34:02,140 --> 00:34:05,849
He doesn't deserve the death sentence,
even if you could give him one.

501
00:34:06,060 --> 00:34:09,177
Those children have an extremely
unpleasant skin condition.

502
00:34:09,380 --> 00:34:13,134
Not as bad as having your ears
chewed off or your throat torn open.

503
00:34:13,340 --> 00:34:15,331
That'd be nasty.

504
00:34:15,540 --> 00:34:20,534
Why doesn't anyone in
this village do as I say?

505
00:34:20,740 --> 00:34:22,298
- Mark.
- What?

506
00:34:22,500 --> 00:34:24,411
Put that down.

507
00:34:24,620 --> 00:34:27,373
I have work to do even if you don't.

508
00:34:27,580 --> 00:34:32,256
OK. Well, I'll just finish this and
I'll be off. But that's the law, Doc.

509
00:34:33,420 --> 00:34:35,456
Ooh, you looking up rude words?

510
00:34:35,660 --> 00:34:38,458
Trying to find
erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae.

511
00:34:38,660 --> 00:34:40,173
Not until you're married.

512
00:34:40,380 --> 00:34:43,053
Don't forget, you've got
the school thing today.

513
00:34:43,260 --> 00:34:46,616
If Louisa Glasson gets it,
there's a party later at the Crab.

514
00:34:46,820 --> 00:34:49,618
- What happens if not?
- No one Will talk to you.

515
00:34:49,820 --> 00:34:53,608
- I Could live with that.
- Mind you, they won't talk to you anyway.

516
00:34:53,820 --> 00:34:57,608
- not if you kill the dog.
- I don't need it killed, just treated

517
00:34:57,820 --> 00:35:00,778
and removed from the village.
Why are you still here?

518
00:35:00,980 --> 00:35:03,210
I've got a flesh-eating bug. Cool.

519
00:35:03,420 --> 00:35:06,253
It's a micro-organism transferred
from animals to humans,

520
00:35:06,460 --> 00:35:11,614
most commonly children because
they're disgusting. Now, please, leave.

521
00:35:17,580 --> 00:35:20,048


522
00:35:23,740 --> 00:35:25,696
Now, quiet, you lot!

523
00:35:25,900 --> 00:35:28,892
Peter, what do you think
you're doing in here?

524
00:35:29,100 --> 00:35:32,297
Now everyone just calm down.

525
00:35:32,500 --> 00:35:34,889
Now quiet or it's detention.

526
00:35:35,100 --> 00:35:39,173
Peter, what's going on? You know
you're supposed to be in room three.

527
00:35:39,380 --> 00:35:41,575
I've got a flesh-eating bug!

528
00:35:43,260 --> 00:35:45,171
- No, you haven't.
- Yes, I have.

529
00:35:45,380 --> 00:35:48,258
It's called erysipelothrix
rhusiopathiae.

530
00:35:48,460 --> 00:35:51,532
- Doc Martin said.
- 

531
00:35:52,420 --> 00:35:55,810
Can we all just calm down?

532
00:35:56,740 --> 00:35:59,379
Peter, you get out! You get out!

533
00:35:59,580 --> 00:36:04,449
 You all know Doctor Ellingham.
This is Mel Collins, our LEA governor,

534
00:36:04,660 --> 00:36:06,730
a parent governor, Stu MacKensie,

535
00:36:06,940 --> 00:36:09,613
and Tim Barton, the
other community governor.

536
00:36:09,820 --> 00:36:12,380
- it was Just a mole.
- I beg your pardon?

537
00:36:12,580 --> 00:36:16,129
That spot I was worried about.
You said I was being stupid.

538
00:36:16,340 --> 00:36:18,774
I was right, then.

539
00:36:18,980 --> 00:36:21,540
Yeah, er, shall we?

540
00:36:22,700 --> 00:36:25,009
What's going on with
this impetigo business?

541
00:36:25,220 --> 00:36:28,257
- It's not impetigo. It's a zoonosis.
- Sounds Nasty.

542
00:36:28,460 --> 00:36:30,974
I'll give the children
penicillin while I'm here.

543
00:36:31,180 --> 00:36:34,092
Surely they're off
school, the infected kids?

544
00:36:34,300 --> 00:36:39,010
Miss Glasson felt, or, er, it was
felt they'd be better off at school.

545
00:36:39,220 --> 00:36:41,893
- That doesn't sound wise. Miss who?
- 

546
00:36:42,100 --> 00:36:46,093
Once more and I'll throttle you
and feed your body to the seagulls.

547
00:36:46,300 --> 00:36:49,212
Now stay out!

548
00:36:49,980 --> 00:36:51,618
Miss Glasson.

549
00:36:52,620 --> 00:36:55,054
One of our candidates.

550
00:36:56,500 --> 00:36:58,889
Er, hello, um...

551
00:37:00,020 --> 00:37:04,218
If you were gonna improve the
school's equal opportunities policy,

552
00:37:04,420 --> 00:37:07,378
where would you start?

553
00:37:30,900 --> 00:37:33,050
More to the point,
how long would it take?

554
00:37:33,260 --> 00:37:34,818
Goes without saying.

555
00:37:35,020 --> 00:37:38,854
We have a duty to provide for all
children, regardless of gender,

556
00:37:39,060 --> 00:37:43,850
race, ethnicity,
religion, colour, creed,

557
00:37:44,060 --> 00:37:46,699
sexual orientation, disability...

558
00:37:46,900 --> 00:37:50,859
If it goes without saying,
why are you saying it?

559
00:37:53,660 --> 00:37:57,494
So, um, we need to
understand how progress in...

560
00:37:57,700 --> 00:38:03,297
in one subject can feed
through to progress in others.

561
00:38:03,500 --> 00:38:09,257
And we need to look for ways to make
good teaching and learning cross over

562
00:38:09,460 --> 00:38:13,248
from one part of the curriculum to...

563
00:38:13,460 --> 00:38:17,419
to other parts of the curriculum,
if you see what I mean.

564
00:38:17,620 --> 00:38:20,578
What would you say were your strengths?

565
00:38:20,780 --> 00:38:23,499
This is silly because,
as you would imagine,

566
00:38:23,700 --> 00:38:26,817
I've prepared an answer to that,
but in the heat of the moment...

567
00:38:27,020 --> 00:38:30,057
How about an answer
you haven't prepared?

568
00:38:30,260 --> 00:38:31,852
Um...

569
00:38:33,060 --> 00:38:35,415
I think I'm good at listening.

570
00:38:35,620 --> 00:38:38,930
Oh, is that something a
headteacher should be able to do?

571
00:38:39,140 --> 00:38:43,338
Absolutely. Yes. Because I it means
you're still prepared to learn,

572
00:38:43,540 --> 00:38:47,453
and how can you encourage others to
learn if you refuse to learn yourself?

573
00:38:47,660 --> 00:38:52,290
So, if a doctor gave you medical
advice, you wouldn't ignore him?

574
00:38:53,660 --> 00:38:56,572
- No.
 I gather from the doctor,

575
00:38:56,780 --> 00:38:59,340
he said the infected kids
shouldn't come to school,

576
00:38:59,540 --> 00:39:05,979
to prevent the spread of this
impetigo or zoonosis, whatever it is.

577
00:39:06,180 --> 00:39:09,490
It's a staphylococcus. As I
said, now that I know what it is,

578
00:39:09,700 --> 00:39:12,419
I can treat it with the
penicillin I've brought.

579
00:39:12,620 --> 00:39:17,648
Allowing the children to come to
school could have put the kids at risk.

580
00:39:17,860 --> 00:39:21,899
How can you justify your
refusal to take his advice?

581
00:39:22,100 --> 00:39:27,174
Right. Look, some parents have to work.

582
00:39:27,380 --> 00:39:30,178
They can't keep their kids
home without paying someone.

583
00:39:30,380 --> 00:39:33,019
They can't pay anyone if
they've not enough themselves.

584
00:39:33,220 --> 00:39:37,577
Now, unlike some people, I understand
the reality of life in this village.

585
00:39:37,780 --> 00:39:40,738
I know which parents need
help, and what sort of help,

586
00:39:40,940 --> 00:39:44,979
and I know how to give it. I wouldn't
put any child at risk of infection.

587
00:39:45,180 --> 00:39:48,729
With respect, you did. You
encouraged the kids to come to school.

588
00:39:48,940 --> 00:39:50,578
You brought them together.

589
00:39:50,780 --> 00:39:53,055
No. We took special precautions.

590
00:39:53,260 --> 00:39:55,649
We hired an extra classroom assistant.

591
00:39:55,860 --> 00:39:57,851
Every infected child was segregated.

592
00:39:58,060 --> 00:40:01,530
They were taught away from the others.
They were given separate playtimes.

593
00:40:01,740 --> 00:40:06,530
As I told Doctor Ellingham, there was
no sharing of books, pens, nothing.

594
00:40:06,740 --> 00:40:11,131
We provided a service to the kids,
to the parents, and the community.

595
00:40:11,340 --> 00:40:15,174
And we followed medical
advice to the letter.

596
00:40:23,420 --> 00:40:25,934
Thank you, Peter.

597
00:40:31,900 --> 00:40:33,936
Ah, Miss Glasson.

598
00:40:35,100 --> 00:40:37,250
Come in, please.

599
00:40:39,780 --> 00:40:43,409
- I have to see to the children.
- Whether I've got this job or not,

600
00:40:43,620 --> 00:40:45,770
I will never forgive
you for stitching me up.

601
00:40:45,980 --> 00:40:48,699
- I didn't.
- Then Who told them?

602
00:40:48,900 --> 00:40:51,050
I'd be entitled to tell them
that if I did tell them...

603
00:40:51,260 --> 00:40:53,649
Because you never listen.
Why don't you listen?

604
00:40:53,860 --> 00:40:59,059
Now Peter tells me that the skin
infection came from your bloody dog.

605
00:40:59,260 --> 00:41:02,093
- Miss Glasson?
- Yes, coming.

606
00:41:03,660 --> 00:41:05,412
It's not my dog.

607
00:41:12,940 --> 00:41:14,532
Next.

608
00:41:20,300 --> 00:41:22,575
Can't I have a flesh-eating
bug one more day?

609
00:41:22,780 --> 00:41:24,816
No. Bend over.

610
00:41:29,460 --> 00:41:32,293
- There. D'you feel that?
- Wow, I didn't feel a thing.

611
00:41:32,500 --> 00:41:34,331
- I haven't done anything yet.
- Ow.

612
00:41:34,540 --> 00:41:36,690
There you go.

613
00:41:38,500 --> 00:41:41,173
Right, that's all of you. Off you go.

614
00:41:46,340 --> 00:41:47,614
Congratulations.

615
00:41:47,820 --> 00:41:51,859
I thought I was the last person
you'd want running the school.

616
00:41:52,060 --> 00:41:55,894
No, you were the most
suitable candidate, by far.

617
00:41:56,100 --> 00:41:57,374
Thank you.

618
00:41:57,580 --> 00:41:58,979
You're welcome.

619
00:42:00,100 --> 00:42:02,694
I'm sorry if... if I misunderstood.

620
00:42:03,780 --> 00:42:05,577
Easily done.

621
00:42:09,540 --> 00:42:14,011
I'm having a drink tonight
at the pub if you fancy it.

622
00:42:14,220 --> 00:42:16,575
Thank you.

623
00:42:20,580 --> 00:42:23,014
Right.

624
00:42:33,260 --> 00:42:37,492
- 
 Hello, Al.

625
00:42:43,060 --> 00:42:45,528
- Dad.
- Hello, boy.

626
00:42:48,300 --> 00:42:50,530
Come to gloat?

627
00:42:50,740 --> 00:42:52,696
Have you told her yet?

628
00:42:52,900 --> 00:42:55,619
I don't know how to.
Shortfall, it's a lot of money.

629
00:42:55,820 --> 00:42:59,608
- Serves you right, eh?
- Oh. Your old dad's messed up.

630
00:42:59,820 --> 00:43:02,618
There's no need to
have a go at me as well.

631
00:43:02,820 --> 00:43:04,936
What do you want me to do about it?

632
00:43:05,140 --> 00:43:09,258
Hand you over a wad of cash so you
can bail yourself out of trouble?

633
00:43:09,460 --> 00:43:12,497
That's up to you. But I
would ask you one thing.

634
00:43:12,700 --> 00:43:16,056
- Mm?
- What's family for, eh?

635
00:43:16,260 --> 00:43:17,613
Mmm.

636
00:43:17,820 --> 00:43:21,290
Thing is, I had a
word with Mrs Richards,

637
00:43:21,500 --> 00:43:25,732
she says she's charging you at
cost, as you're helping Mrs Cronk.

638
00:43:25,940 --> 00:43:31,412
So she can't imagine why you
think you owe her any money.

639
00:43:31,620 --> 00:43:33,656
Nice try, Dad.

640
00:43:40,820 --> 00:43:43,653


641
00:43:45,500 --> 00:43:47,809


642
00:43:52,900 --> 00:43:54,492
Stop it!

643
00:43:54,700 --> 00:43:57,578
Look what you've done! Look!

644
00:44:00,220 --> 00:44:02,131
Stay there.

645
00:44:02,340 --> 00:44:04,376
Stay right there.

646
00:44:32,220 --> 00:44:36,054
- 
- No, no, no. Come, come.

647
00:44:37,900 --> 00:44:40,209


648
00:44:43,420 --> 00:44:44,739


649
00:44:48,860 --> 00:44:53,615
Quiet, quiet, please. I'd like to
propose a toast to our new headmistress.

650
00:44:53,820 --> 00:44:56,539
Thank you.
 Cheers!

651
00:44:56,740 --> 00:44:58,731
Well done.

652
00:44:58,940 --> 00:45:02,330
- It was a bit of a ropey start, though.
 Well, you know...

653
00:45:02,540 --> 00:45:04,974
 Were you worried about it?

654
00:45:06,900 --> 00:45:11,337
- were you looking down my top?
- Yep.

655
00:45:35,580 --> 00:45:38,856
- 
 Get out!
