Gabriel (voiceover): When I first met Terry,

he was hobbling white car mechanic

who was dropping his spanners more often than normal.

Over the next few years, the meds stopped working

and the Parkinson's got worse.

And then he wasn't a car mechanic anymore.

A year after that, he wasn't happily married either.

There are very few miracles left in this seen-it-all world.

But today, with luck, you're going to witness one of them.

[Music playing]

How ya doing, Terry?

Top, yeah.

You?

I'm good.

We're a good team.

You, me, sat.

Nav.

Keep telling me if you're feeling

any tingling or numbness, ok?

All right, doc.

Gabriel: Right, just going to switch on the current

and see what we've got.

[Electrical noise]

Huhn.

Daniel: Vital signs are good.

Terry?

Terry.

You ok?

Terry?

Course I am.

I'm top.

What'd you bloody think?

It stopped.

The shaking stopped.

You know what?

I just love the miracle days.

[Music playing]

[Theme music]

[Music playing]

Jenny bremner, good to have you back.

Yes, good to be back, alistair.

Or should I say, Mr. Gillespie?

I know you've been elevated to, what's it called again?

Uh, head of clinical services.

Acting head, yes, that's it.

No, head.

Well, as long as we don't get in each other's way, I'm sure

it will be a fascinating interlude.

More ambitious than an interlude, Jenny.

How does the old saying go?

A change is going to come.

- Hi. - Hello.

Great to see you.

Yes, you too.

So, photos?

I'm not curious about your life outside of the hospital,

miss witney, and I don't expect to see curiosity

from you regarding mine.

Ah, Jenny bremner, you made it to the other side.

I can barely smell the baby sick.

Thank you.

How are you handling Gillespie?

I give the appearance of agreeing

with him while ignoring everything he says.

We play him like a virgin.

First class pinto movement on his management balls.

How very male.

What have you done with my anesthetist?

He's still sleeping.

He can do that at work.

Have you started pilates yet?

Can't be too soon in my experience.

What?

Is a colleague's pelvic floor considered

off-limits these days?

Political correctness gone mad.

Can we change the subject?

Why not.

Kitty (voiceover): Paul herd, 31 years of age.

No previous health problems but he had a stroke two months ago

and was admitted to a&e in stockport, royal.

Daniel (voiceover): His scan at the time showed a bleed

and hints of abnormalities.

His second scan showed an underlying arteriovenous

malformation, too big to operate.

So what's he doing here?

Second opinion?

Third, actually.

Two other hospitals already turned him down for surgery.

So, um, did the other hospitals

explain what an avm is?

Yes.

Tangles of blood in his brain.

Some people can walk around with an avm forever,

but not once they bleed.

When they bleed it's a bad sign, and he's had a bleed

and he's had headaches.

Right, good.

Well, you've done your homework, good.

And did they explain how they classify them?

Yes, they said that my scores are good.

They said that the tangle's too big to operate on.

From what I can see, it looks borderline, actually.

Well, that's what we think too.

Does this mean that you can do something about it?

Well, it means I might be able to, yes.

Have they sent through the angiogram?

Didn't do one, did they?

No, just a ct scan and an mri.

Ok, so the surgeons you've seen already clearly

think that an operation is too risky.

And are you saying the same?

Well, I'm saying I don't know.

Look, it's in here like a ticking bomb.

And, I don't know, well i... You can see how we're fixed.

I can't live like this.

Neither of us can.

This... this isn't my story.

You know what I mean?

My story is of a guy who gets to see his kids grow up.

You're not saying no, are ya?

I'm not saying no.

Well, that's good enough for me, pal.

I bet you any money, the two surgeons who said no to him

we're both under 35.

Because?

Because you're risk-adverse generation that

started with decaffeinated coffee,

it's been downhill ever since.

Terry, back again.

I was just passing so I thought

I'd come and see everyone.

Say thank you in person again.

Yeah, well, I mean, you know, all

I did was wriggle an old coat hanging around your head.

But, uh, well, I appreciate it.

Ok.

Job well done.

Top hat.

How many times has he visited since his op?

I've lost count.

This is Mr. Stevens, 65-years old.

He's doing well, still draining a fair bit.

Mostly he misses his food.

But quite bloody now, so we're keeping the drains

in to be on the safe side.

Ah, good work.

She's an angel, this one.

You do know that, don't you?

Well, I'm uh, glad you're feeling better.

Angel, smiling patients.

We're going to have to try to put a stop to that.

Good to have you back.

I was drowning in a sea of joy.

How would you handle Gillespie?

Go in early, go in hard.

Uh, thought so.

Fantastic.

So I'll see you later, Mr. Stevens.

[Music playing]

Thought you'd already set off?

Oh, hello, you must be daddy.

Uh, you are?

Mary.

Uh, are you taking Louis to nursery?

No, I'm pretty much a one-woman nursery.

Well, clearly change of plan.

I will see you later, big fella.

[Music playing]

Say bye, daddy.

Did he not know?

[Music playing]

I've got a strange woman standing

in my kitchen calling me daddy.

And not in a good way?

We'd arranged a nursery place.

Where is my stranger, springer.

Uh, mainly kiwi au pairs.

Ahh, kiwi au pairs, the famous Irish greengrocer.

I think you're obsessing about domestic details in lieu

of sex, we've all been there.

Yeah, many's the time I've sought

solace in descaling the kettle.

Good morning, everybody.

First things first, some of you know her already,

but I would like to introduce our new nurse

specialist, Lizzie clapham.

Hi.

Lizzie is the named person who will

be responsible for the emotional and practical needs of neuro

and cardiac surgical patients.

Neuro and cardiac.

Double the job at half the price.

Which reflects the fact that Lizzie is multi-talented.

If a nurse is responsible for our patient's emotional needs,

where does that leave those doctors who

actually like to talk to them?

We're answering the questions they don't ask

you because you terrify them.

And what if I don't terrify my patients?

Does that leave you out of a job?

Ha, I think my job's safe, love.

I'm willing to bet you do terrify your patients.

Oh dear.

[Music playing]

Why would two other hospitals turn him down?

Cowardice.

Look at the scans.

Now, I think it's closer to a grade 4 than a grade 5.

It could even be borderline 3.

Oh, well, that's a clincher.

You know if Wilson dares to speak out loud,

we generally listen.

What are the risks?

Bleeding, damage to surrounding neural tissue,

stroke, hemorrhage.

But you know you have to remember,

he's already had a bleed and the next one

will most probably kill him.

Two other surgeons have already decided it's too risky.

Two surgeons didn't order an angiogram.

Well, why don't we do that?

Yes, thank you.

It'll help you to explain to your patient

why we won't be able to operate either.

What's next up?

Doctor: Intervertebral disc prolapse.

L4,5...

Sorry, sorry, was this the inter-department?

Uh, yeah, he moved it earlier.

He sent an email.

No, I couldn't log on.

I'm Lizzie clapham, by the way, your new nurse specialist.

So, a nanny?

Oh, uh.

That was a bit of a surprise.

Well, I just wanted Louis to have all the attention

that he'd get if I was there.

Well, not sure anybody can do that, can they?

But you remember how anonymous that nursery was?

What with the babies wriggling around on that mat like...

Like small babies?

What did you think of Mary?

She seems nice.

Did we talk about her?

No, but we are doing that now, aren't we?

Just a moment.

Jenny, how's it going so far?

Easing yourself back in ok?

Well, I have no intention of easing myself back in,

and an accurate timetable might help.

That is what I appreciate about you, Jenny,

and I always have.

Great.

I've taken you off the operating roter,

till you get back in the swing.

All this, your new job, it's a pilot scheme, right?

It's pretend.

I'm not sure why you're telling me this.

I get that you have to play the room.

But, you know, now it's just the two of us, can we please

have a proper conversation about the avm case.

Um hum.

I don't think we're in the job of giving people false hope.

And what if the angiogram proves me right?

It won't make it any less risky,

it won't contradict the scans he's already had.

I'm sorry to disappoint you.

But you just need to find the best way to tell him no.

[Music playing]

Come on.

Is there a shortcut for looking into the clinic timetable?

Oh.

Anything interesting?

Aortic valve replacement on Mrs. Hellings.

Just taking the transthoracic echo.

Yeah, all looks pretty straightforward.

Yeah, I'm sure it is.

I'll write down step-by-step for you.

Gillespie streamlined the system.

Right, yes, good.

Thank you.

So we're going to do an angiogram in the morning.

Oh, so the iron ropes haven't ruled it out then?

That's great.

Yes, yes it is.

Shall we wait?

No, the best thing you can do is go home,

get a takeaway on a nice bottle of red.

Sounds like a plan.

We won't lose our place in the queue or anything?

No, you won't.

Ok, so we'll see first thing in the morning, go on.

Come on, gorgeous.

[Music playing]

All I'm saying is that it's better

to have a surgeon like Gillespie in charge than some non-medic.

He doesn't have a problem with you.

Face it, you don't like him because you don't dazzle him.

Oi, springer. Here, come here.

Not planning on getting any sleep tonight, are you?

Uh, well, actually...

No, I want some recent papers on avms.

We need to bombard Gillespie with data

and you are the man for the job.

Hand-picked. - Ah.

Mullery, oi.

What do you think makes him tick, your new boss?

You don't have to answer that.

You have known Mr. Gillespie longer than I have.

Yeah, he wasn't in charge then.

Does he seem pirate-crazed to you?

I'm the registrar, people shout at me all day long,

it's quite hard to single out one megalomaniac among so many.

Hmm.

So what's it to be?

A pint or domestic bliss?

Neither.

I'm going home.

Think this is the bad bit?

Wait until he grows up and discovers sarcasm.

[Music playing]

My good boy, yes you are.

We did all right here, didn't we?

Yes.

Yes, we did.

Isn't that Mary's job?

No salt. They never remember the no salt thing.

Lawrence: Well, you don't know that.

Well, just take a look at Louie's diary.

I wrote three pages this morning.

She only managed half a page on what

she did for the rest of the day, I think that tells me enough.

It was never going to be easy, you know,

your first day back and everything.

Well, I uh, I have to do this.

This... this actually makes it easier, the whole thing.

You understand that, don't you?

Of course, I do.

Of course.

[Music playing]

Is there anything she doesn't eat?

Well, I don't know, do I?

Ok, ok, stupid question.

Oh, Nick, don't be late.

So, how was it last night?

Silk kimono or sweatpants and the purr of the breast pump?

Your fervent interest in our sex life

is beginning to worry me.

Me too.

I need to be reintegrated into normal society.

Help me.

Sounds ominous.

I'm cooking tonight for Anna and her new fella.

I need some moral support.

That's very modern of you.

Well, you know, my son wants to see us all together and I

want to prove that I don't have a problem

with my ex-wife's new man.

You do have a problem with him.

Yes, but I don't want Anna to know that because then he'll

know it and he'll have won.

Oh, see ya in there.

Terry.

All right.

What are you doing?

A quick service for Bradley.

You could hear a knockin'.

Look, Terry, you don't need to do this, you know?

I mean, it's our job to make you better,

you don't have to come in and help.

Leave us your keys, I'll check your filters.

Ah, well, if you don't mind.

No problem.

Morning.

Ah, morning.

I could talk to him if you'd like.

What and miss out on a free oil change?

Gotta be kidding me.

Lizzie: How long has he been coming in for now?

Four months.

Look, you want to try and work your voodoo on Terry,

be my guest.

Cappuccino with an Espresso chaser.

Full cardio workout, nice.

Yeah, Monroe's had me up all night doing his legwork.

He thinks that means Monroe's going to make

him registrar quicker than me.

Oh yeah, I was forgetting that you

two were still mere trainees.

I'm not sure as registrar I should

even be sitting with you.

Well, I doubt either of you would

be up there if you specialized in something more challenging.

Andrew: Ooh.

Oi, springer, what you got for me?

Bye, doctor.

Daniel: Paul has a one in four chance of a re-bleed

in the next 10 months.

And as we know, a re-bleed is likely to be fatal.

High risk of epilepsy and vascular steal.

Ok, Wilson, what can you see?

Frontal avm.

Feeding vessels from the middle and anterior cerebral arteries.

Springer, now you know the position, what's your call?

Occlude and isolate the main feeding arteries,

dissect the avm.

You make it sound so easy.

Wilson, risks?

The release of pressure causes the hemorrhage

in the adjacent brain.

Cause a hemorrhage trying to stop a hemorrhage.

[Beeper noise]

Must have a word with god about his sense of humor.

Rta coming in.

So what will Gillespie say about the angiogram?

Well, he'll say it's too risky and he might be right.

Monroe, the patient's got a ruptured spleen,

so we're going first.

Mr. Gillespie said it'll take about an hour

to control the bleed.

How do you know the patient's got in there?

Well, it isn't really a choice unless we control the bleeding,

then her brain isn't going to be an issue.

Lizzie: I'm sorry, love. You can't wait here.

We're going to take you outside.

It's ok, Lizzie, I've got this.

No, I'm just telling Steve he needs to go...

I've got this, thank you.

Hello, I'm Mr. Monroe, I'm the neurosurgeon.

How is she?

The main thing is that she's in the right place

and that she's made it this far.

She's got to live, you do get that, don't you?

We'll do our best.

I looked up and there she was, coming towards me.

I never even saw her.

I'm sorry, are you not uh...

Were you driving a different car?

I hit here, the girl...

The girl in the car.

- You're not a relative? - Relative?

Ah, you need to wait outside.

Yeah, come on, love.

Come on.

I'm going to take some out.

Springer, where are you?

I need to shout at someone.

Mr. Monroe, what's happening?

Please, are we on or not?

Paul, listen, I've ah...

I've got to go into theater.

I'll come and talk to when I come outside, ok?

- It's not bad news, is it? - Promise.

What did he say?

It's they're busy, you know?

I don't mean to bother him.

Come on.

She's going to be all right, isn't she?

She is going to be all right?

Michelle, come on, love.

I'll show you where you can wait.

Can you phone the blood bank again

and ask them how long for the blood, ffp, and platelets?

Are we getting there?

Ok, splenic artery is tied off.

Her pressure's still dropping.

It's still wet in there, there must be another bleed

somewhere, Monroe?

Daniel: No.

Ok, let's pack it with swabs so we can clear that field.

Pupils dilated.

All right, we're going to have to get to the clot now.

Alistair, that's it.

We're going to have to start now or else

we're going to lose her.

Can we get some adrenaline please, now?

And more fluids.

I've got to move all this gear.

[Music playing]

So we'll get you started on the warfarin today, Mr.

Stevens, all right?

No offense, love, but I'd rather

hear it from a proper surgeon.

Where's smiler?

Well, I think miss Whitney is shedding

some memes in clinic today.

I'll wait till she's finished there,

if that's all right with you.

It's fine.

My first weeks back after I had our John, murder.

Jill, I appreciate your effort but I am not going

to do the mother and baby talk.

It's just a promise I made me self, all? Right?

No, it's all right, you don't have to join in.

But you know at home you've got a little miracle who smiles

every time he hears your voice.

It's some other woman who's looking after him, what,

so you can do this?

Which isn't even want you're good at.

Won't let you near operating theater and pretend they're

doing you a favor.

You can't even escape your sulky fella because he

works in the same building.

And when you're lying in bed with a cabbage leaf

on each nipple, that's when he decides to make his move.

And I want you to know that I know what you're going through,

even if you don't.

So I'm giving you this key.

What's it for?

Leena's cupboard.

Go in there and scream anytime you like.

Nobody will hear ya.

Any screaming on this ward, you just assume that springer's

taking someone's stitches out.

Bullmarks ready?

Where's the rest the blood in the fifth, please.

Can we get some fluid and bring in the crash trolley.

Move over, you're in my way.

Ok, we've got vt and no heart trace.

Alistair, pulse?

No.

Ok, you both need to stop what you're doing.

Monroe, chest compressions.

Can we get the crash pads, please?

Now.

Oxygen away.

Stand back.

[Crash machine noise]

Charging.

Monroe, stay clear.

Shocking.

Charging.

Shocking.

Charging.

Stand clear.

Shocking.

Charging.

Stand clear.

Shocking.

Ok, let's leave it now, see what we've got.

I've got a pulse.

So have I.

Marvelous.

Ok, Wilson, springer, time for some real surgery.

[Music playing]

Well done, springer, you gotta touch that kind of things

while you're still single.

Ah ha, I'm single out of choice.

Oh yeah, I say that too.

Do you want to talk to her mother first?

If I can get to her ahead of the patient pixie.

Now that you've seen my brilliance close up,

I expect you'll want to back me more readily.

Oh, so an excellent piece of surgery

means I have to support every judgment call you make?

No, not every call just this one.

So we've repaired her injury, there's no more bleeding,

she's in intensive care, she's doing well.

I bought her the car for her 21st.

She didn't want it.

But I thought she was just saying that.

I bought her the car.

Whatever we do to make our children safe, you know what?

It doesn't make them safe.

I know.

I know, Lizzie explained that to me.

Thank you.

Can I go and see her now?

Course you can.

Nice trick.

Setting me up with the driver like that.

You could almost earn my grudging respect.

Hey, don't fight it, it's inevitable.

I'm not here to be arrogant.

Really?

But I do like talking to my patients

and I'm happy to listen to them too.

I'm good at it.

So what about Paul?

The avm man.

What about him?

Mr. Gillespie says you might be

finding it difficult telling him you're not going to operate.

Did he now?

The last avm I tried to remove, when we got to it,

the thing burst straight away.

It was so much blood, it soaked through the scrubs.

You know what?

He survived.

He made a full recovery.

So you never know.

You never know.

All the scans in the world might tell us nothing at all.

Why are you telling me this?

Because I want to go ahead with the operation.

You can't expect my backing if it goes wrong.

You do know that?

I never had your backing anyway.

I just want you to be sure you can live with the consequences.

Of crossing you?

No, of failure.

If Paul dies and you've gone against every bit of advice,

are you sure you can live with that?

[Music playing]

Paul, Julie.

I need to talk to you about the risks.

We've been through this 1,000 times.

I know about the risks.

I need to believe that.

If I'm going to do this operation,

I need to believe it.

Ok.

Don't look so worried, it will be all right.

I think I'm supposed to be the one that's reassuring you.

You've got craftsman's hands.

What?

My dad was a cabinet maker, you got hands like his.

Craftsman.

Bad day?

Terrible day.

How can you tell?

Even the back of your head is scowling.

Can I borrow your significant other this evening?

I don't know, it depends on what

you want to borrow him for.

Well, I need a man with good looks,

ready wit, charm, and repartee.

And where does Lawrence fit in?

Ok, bottom line, I need someone

to snicker at my periodic jokes about

my ex-wife's new boyfriend.

Ah, well, what time do you want him?

[Doorbell ringing]

Hi, dad.

This is my dad, this is Donna.

And this, surprisingly, is Lawrence, my dad's mate.

Hey.

And anesthetist.

I always have one on standby when I'm cooking.

Lawrence: It's very nice to meet you.

Come in.

Young Arlo is supposed to Mark the triumph

of the frontal cortex.

In your case, I sometimes wonder.

Those frontal cortex cracks, just keep 'em coming.

Are they always like this?

Always.

No wonder you left.

Well, since this is an awkward moment,

I might as well get my news in under the wire.

Donna and me are going to get married.

How do you mean?

We're going to get married to each other.

Sorry, Larry, I didn't know you were going to be here.

I know it might seem quite soon.

Oh yeah, very soon.

Have you really thought about this?

Well, what do your parents say, Donna?

Well, actually...

Dad, what... what do you think?

Well, I certainly think it's one

way to fill an awkward silence.

I mean, I know you might be feeling

a bit jaundiced about love right now, with you being on your own

and everybody else pairing up.

Yeah, I don't think pity is going to swing

the argument your way, son.

You know what?

Congratulations to both of you.

Yeah, right.

You're right.

Congratulations.

Shall I go out and get some champagne?

All right, I can do the champagne.

Good night, congratulations again.

Hmm.

Well, that was terrible news.

So why did you pretend it wasn't?

Well, in fairness, Dave started it.

Do you think she's pregnant?

That'll be it.

Hams to the best and the brightest,

you know, like bremner and Shepherd.

We didn't get married though, did we?

How come?

Dave, hmm?

Isn't it just more likely that he's idealized marriage?

His parents failed so he wants to make it work.

With all due respect, Dave, two things.

First, it's got bugger all to do with you.

And the second, you're a vet.

What's that got to do with anything?

I won't be lectured on parenting skills

from somebody who sticks a thermometer

up a cats arse for a living.

Fair enough.

But for the record, it's uh, dogs asses too.

You can't ask Dave to be part of the conversation

and then insult him when he says something you disagree with.

Can't I?

That's the cornerstone of my debating strategy.

I think we should talk when we've all calmed down

and had a lot less to drink.

Bye, Larry.

Thanks for the meal.

Anytime.

Well, I think that went quite.

Do you think that quite well?

You were a model of restraint.

Shall I open another bottle of wine?

No, no, no, you go home and stare at your son

while he's still all potential and no bad decisions.

Go on home.

[Music playing]

[Baby coughing]

[Baby crying]

Lawrence: Shh, shh, shh.

[Baby crying]

Oh dear.

What's the matter?

Shh, shh.

You look absolutely shattered.

And you don't, which is sort of miraculous.

Well, I could sleep at work for all the use I am.

Until Gillespie lets me back in theater,

I might as well be sleeping.

Well, maybe he's got a point.

No, he doesn't have a point.

That's an idiotic thing to say.

Ok.

He's just trying to do what he thinks

a clinical manager should do because he's out of his depth...

I agree with you.

That you think he can be...

Stop.

Sorry.

Take it out on you.

I'm just not very good at this.

What?

Ohh, I know I'm not much fun.

Just finding it hard.

Don't take it personally, all right?

I won't.

[Music playing]

Hey, Mary.

I'm going now, have a good day.

I'm Jess.

Not Mary.

No, not Mary.

[Music playing]

I see your chat with Terry has really helped move him on.

Work in progress.

So have you done your playlist?

Yeah, there's ten hours worth there.

We're going to need it.

Hmm, interesting.

Paul: Ha ha ha.

[Clears throat]

It's Jess now.

Do you want to tell me what you did with Mary?

Well, i... I just had my doubts about Mary.

And if I'm going to stay sane at work

then I can't be having doubts about the person

looking after our baby.

And you think I'm happy having doubts about my son?

No, no, no, no.

I just... I just sense that i'm probably better at the details

than you are.

Do you know what?

I was trying to do lighthearted but i'm

actually a bit pissed off that you didn't

discuss it with me first.

So um, anything else you'd like to ask me,

you know, either of you.

Everybody else turned me down, told me the risks.

Thing is, I can feel it getting worse.

You told me the risks too, but you said you'd help.

So thank you.

I'll see you in theater.

All right.

Are you all right?

Yes, I'm fine.

[Music playing]

If you don't move soon, then I'll hang a drip off you.

[Music playing]

Hey.

I love you.

Love you.

[Music playing]

[Razor buzzing]

Ok, springer.

Make an incision along the scalp.

Every 3 centimeters apply scalp clips

to include the mastoid swabs.

And springer?

Yes?

Take your time, it's going to be a long day.

[Music playing]

[Coughing]

[Coughing]

You know what, Larry?

This better be good.

Might just be getting the hang of this.

Patient's been coughing all morning.

Had a big coughing fit and blood's

been pouring into his chest tubes.

- Right, get the chest kit now. - Shall I call theater?

No, there's no time, he's bleeding out.

Chest kit now.

On the bad days, you can remember

the days like this because they don't come any better.

Come on, let's go, I will need some blood.

I'll also need a transfusion.

Get out of the way, you clowns.

Let's turn him around.

Let's get him in as quick as you can.

Now, come on, we're losing him. Let's go.

Talk about attention seeking.

Only been here five minutes and she's stealing my thunder.

What happened?

Your patient coughed himself a bleed.

One the graphs must have been leaking.

Bremner cracked his chest, blocked the hole,

and she's taking him up to theater.

Saved a life and freed me up a bed.

Win-win, I call it.

Said he felt better as soon as he woke up,

said he knew straight away.

Sometimes it happens like that.

Well, that's good.

I'm glad you stayed lucky.

Well, there's nothing wrong with being lucky.

Every operation I do I need luck.

Yeah, but you trusted your luck

over the judgment of others.

But you got away with it.

As congratulation speeches go, alistair, this is

proving something of a letdown.

Oh, I'm cautious so that allows you to take more risks.

I don't think I want to do that job.

I don't want to play the straight man so you

can shine all the brighter.

Well, ok.

Thanks.

Was there anything else?

Yes.

[Exhale] I'm afraid you're going to have

to lose one of your team.

What?

Springer or Wilson.

We can't afford them both when they become registrars,

you're going to have to let one of them go.

Have you any idea how hard it is to get this far?

The work they've put in?

Well, I'm a surgeon so, yes, would be the answer to that.

You're a general surgeon, or sort of a surgeon,

to give your official title.

I know you won't believe this, but, I

fought your corner for this.

In the current climate, you're lucky not to be losing both.

I haven't had a registrar since fortune left.

Yeah, but that doesn't mean you can

have two now to make up for it.

Look, one registrar, one trainee.

That is the agreed structure.

They are both talented, dedicated, good hands.

I am not saying that they both won't go on

to become excellent registrars.

What I'm saying is, they can both do it at this hospital.

[Music playing]

Hmm, well, I'm sorry.

That's tough.

I'm confused, I thought Gillespie's

title was largely ceremonial.

Well, me too.

Like the queen, say, or the manager of Chelsea.

Have you major decision yet?

No, not really.

I mean, springer's brilliant but annoying because he knows it.

Wilson's brilliant but annoying because she doesn't.

Hmm, so it doesn't just come down to who

laughs at your jokes then?

No, although that is how I chose Shepard.

Ah, me too.

Oh dear, I take it young Louis isn't sleeping through.

You think you'd try and control crying.

Oh yeah, well that helps.

But don't cry too, otherwise, you'll both wake the baby.

Ah ha ha.

[Laughing]

Poor sods.

Oh, they'll be ok.

Why?

What's going on?

Here, I'll tell you on the way home.

Come on.

I knew that we were going to smash the operation today.

Um hum, but you didn't think you'd say anything

because we are so modest.

He's also shy about giving his opinions.

That's true, actually.

That's the one thing that people don't know

about me is I'm incredibly shy.

'Cause you hide it so well behind

the arrogant prick disguise.

[Laughing]

Terry, still here.

I just come to say, I won't be able to help out anymore.

Oh, really?

Start work Monday.

Ah, that's great.

It's only part-time like, in a repair shop.

But she said she'd make a call, and she did.

And by she you mean?

That Lizzie woman, she's a walking miracle.

Yeah, all right.

I suppose she must be.

[Music - the cinematic orchestra,

["that home"] Where the doors are moaning all day long.

Where the stairs are leaning dusk 'till dawn.

Where the windows are breathing in the light.

Where the rooms are a collection of our lives.
