Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:32,286 --> 00:00:35,437
Every birth begins as a mystery,
2
00:00:35,973 --> 00:00:39,813
an enterprise whose outcome
cannot be foretold.
3
00:00:42,158 --> 00:00:44,263
We think, "May all be well."
4
00:00:44,861 --> 00:00:48,741
And all is well - almost always.
5
00:00:50,146 --> 00:00:53,786
Your councillor is
Mrs Violet Buckle!
6
00:00:55,309 --> 00:00:58,309
But joy is only
the beginning of the journey.
7
00:01:00,397 --> 00:01:04,717
And we must move forward,
fuelled by faith.
8
00:01:15,242 --> 00:01:16,282
More flowers?
9
00:01:16,337 --> 00:01:19,537
The Rotary Club and the
Local Trader's Association.
10
00:01:19,866 --> 00:01:21,910
No, I've no vases left.
11
00:01:22,005 --> 00:01:24,005
We'll have to put them in buckets.
12
00:01:24,910 --> 00:01:26,294
You not going to get that?
13
00:01:26,295 --> 00:01:28,415
It's not stopped all morning.
14
00:01:30,003 --> 00:01:31,947
Councillor Violet Buckle speaking.
15
00:01:31,948 --> 00:01:34,136
May I ask what your call
is regarding?
16
00:01:34,339 --> 00:01:38,241
- Mum!
- Reggie, love, is that you?
17
00:01:38,266 --> 00:01:39,865
Congratulations, Mum.
18
00:01:39,866 --> 00:01:41,053
Thank you, sweetheart.
19
00:01:41,054 --> 00:01:42,654
Are you in charge now?
20
00:01:43,506 --> 00:01:47,025
Not quite, no, but,
as council member for Poplar North,
21
00:01:47,026 --> 00:01:50,098
I shall do my very best to improve
our local community.
22
00:01:50,099 --> 00:01:51,621
You're going to be busy?
23
00:01:51,646 --> 00:01:52,686
I suppose so.
24
00:01:52,750 --> 00:01:54,574
Never too busy for you, Reggie.
25
00:02:05,293 --> 00:02:07,176
Now, don't beat about the bush -
26
00:02:07,266 --> 00:02:09,753
make it clear that
it's a very important trial
27
00:02:09,754 --> 00:02:12,587
and that we're asking the mothers of
all eligible babies to take part.
28
00:02:12,588 --> 00:02:13,516
Righty ho.
29
00:02:13,541 --> 00:02:14,915
And tell them that
Mrs Turner's giving
30
00:02:14,916 --> 00:02:16,229
a short talk at the
end of clinic.
31
00:02:16,230 --> 00:02:17,270
Will do.
32
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:18,579
Well, off you pop.
33
00:02:22,228 --> 00:02:24,111
And don't take no for an answer.
34
00:02:26,404 --> 00:02:28,764
Right, ladies. Measles!
35
00:02:28,789 --> 00:02:30,709
- Just take a seat.
- Thank you.
36
00:02:31,921 --> 00:02:32,961
Good afternoon.
37
00:02:32,986 --> 00:02:35,634
Dr Turner referred me
for my post-natal check.
38
00:02:35,934 --> 00:02:37,894
- Hazel Becker.
- Yes.
39
00:02:37,941 --> 00:02:39,865
We don't seem to have
your records yet.
40
00:02:39,866 --> 00:02:41,317
We just moved from Stepney.
41
00:02:41,318 --> 00:02:43,917
And before that, you were in
Cyprus, is that right?
42
00:02:43,918 --> 00:02:46,330
My husband was posted there
for two years.
43
00:02:47,033 --> 00:02:49,753
You'll be used to this
warm weather, then?
44
00:02:49,854 --> 00:02:52,598
If you'd just like to join
the queue for weighing.
45
00:02:52,599 --> 00:02:54,820
And just so you know,
Sister Hilda now
46
00:02:54,845 --> 00:02:57,343
runs a playgroup here
on Thursday mornings.
47
00:02:57,466 --> 00:03:00,025
You'll find it an excellent way
to meet other mothers.
48
00:03:00,026 --> 00:03:01,874
Right. I'll bear that in mind.
49
00:03:01,899 --> 00:03:02,939
Thank you.
50
00:03:06,270 --> 00:03:09,229
Can I interest you in
a measles vaccination leaflet?
51
00:03:09,230 --> 00:03:11,612
Our clinic's part of a
nationwide trial aiming
52
00:03:11,613 --> 00:03:13,669
to eradicate this
very serious disease.
53
00:03:13,670 --> 00:03:16,265
This says measles can kill.
I didn't know that.
54
00:03:16,266 --> 00:03:18,153
You see children out
on the street with it,
55
00:03:18,154 --> 00:03:19,865
covered in a rash,
spreading it around!
56
00:03:19,866 --> 00:03:21,425
It's a very underestimated disease.
57
00:03:21,426 --> 00:03:24,385
It can cause all sorts of
horrible complications -
58
00:03:24,386 --> 00:03:26,715
blindness, heart problems,
brain damage.
59
00:03:26,740 --> 00:03:28,731
- And death?
- Absolutely.
60
00:03:29,052 --> 00:03:30,862
So would you like to stay
for the talk?
61
00:03:30,863 --> 00:03:32,099
I suppose I'd better.
62
00:03:48,423 --> 00:03:51,286
I'm sorry, Nurse, I couldn't
hear you above the racket.
63
00:03:51,287 --> 00:03:53,025
Not to worry. How are you, Betty?
64
00:03:53,026 --> 00:03:55,328
Well, look at me - I'm blooming.
65
00:03:55,353 --> 00:03:56,392
Come in, come in.
66
00:03:56,417 --> 00:03:58,777
It's mine! Give it back!
67
00:04:00,706 --> 00:04:02,988
Well, this is rather disappointing.
68
00:04:03,013 --> 00:04:06,372
I'm so sorry, Mrs Turner.
I spoke to lots of mothers,
69
00:04:06,397 --> 00:04:09,521
just like Nurse Franklin said,
but maybe I scared them off.
70
00:04:09,522 --> 00:04:11,817
If we can't drum up
a lot more interest,
71
00:04:11,893 --> 00:04:13,801
we shall have to abandon the trial.
72
00:04:13,802 --> 00:04:14,817
Not to worry.
73
00:04:14,842 --> 00:04:17,313
We shall simply have to
alter our approach.
74
00:04:17,386 --> 00:04:19,011
What do you have in mind?
75
00:04:19,148 --> 00:04:21,731
Well, as the stick
clearly hasn't done the trick,
76
00:04:21,732 --> 00:04:23,850
we'll have to dangle
a carrot or two.
77
00:04:23,999 --> 00:04:27,252
I'm sure Sister Frances and I can
come up with something suitable.
78
00:04:27,253 --> 00:04:28,653
If you're quite sure...
79
00:04:30,186 --> 00:04:32,577
I'm sorry,
but will the talk be starting soon?
80
00:04:32,578 --> 00:04:34,574
I'm afraid we've had to postpone.
81
00:04:34,877 --> 00:04:37,525
But a new date will be announced
very shortly.
82
00:04:41,193 --> 00:04:44,656
Excuse the smell - we was making
jam tarts and the jam caught.
83
00:04:44,657 --> 00:04:45,952
It's mine! Bang, bang!
84
00:04:48,066 --> 00:04:50,465
Yeah, I know the boys
should be at school.
85
00:04:50,466 --> 00:04:52,051
But we was having fun.
86
00:04:52,909 --> 00:04:55,268
Besides, I like 'em here with me.
87
00:04:55,293 --> 00:04:57,786
You'll have the inspector after you,
if you're not careful.
88
00:04:57,787 --> 00:04:59,306
Ooh, let him try!
89
00:04:59,331 --> 00:05:02,214
Well, your blood pressure
looks very satisfactory.
90
00:05:02,266 --> 00:05:05,425
It's like I said to Dr Turner -
I could do this in me sleep.
91
00:05:05,426 --> 00:05:08,185
Do you know, he wanted me
up at the hospital for this one?
92
00:05:08,186 --> 00:05:10,705
Once you get to number six,
we like to be careful.
93
00:05:10,706 --> 00:05:12,246
But you'll have two
of us keeping an eye
94
00:05:12,247 --> 00:05:13,835
on you, so you've
nothing to worry about.
95
00:05:13,836 --> 00:05:16,275
Is your, er, Donny still away?
96
00:05:16,300 --> 00:05:18,803
He's on one of them
new container ships.
97
00:05:18,940 --> 00:05:20,899
You know, somewhere
near Newfoundland.
98
00:05:20,900 --> 00:05:22,174
And have you found
someone to sit with
99
00:05:22,175 --> 00:05:23,327
the others when the
big day comes?
100
00:05:23,328 --> 00:05:24,210
Yeah.
101
00:05:24,235 --> 00:05:26,550
Old Mrs Girton from upstairs
is going to help.
102
00:05:26,551 --> 00:05:28,305
See you later, Mum.
I'm going up west with Petey.
103
00:05:28,306 --> 00:05:30,954
- In another new shirt?
- Got to look my best.
104
00:05:34,866 --> 00:05:35,905
First things first,
105
00:05:35,906 --> 00:05:40,225
we need to list all the babies who
fall within the correct age range.
106
00:05:40,226 --> 00:05:42,527
There's going to be quite a few.
The more the merrier.
107
00:05:42,528 --> 00:05:45,343
Then we just need to think of a
suitable incentive for the mothers.
108
00:05:45,344 --> 00:05:47,608
Perhaps a free gift of some sort.
109
00:05:47,755 --> 00:05:49,118
Isn't that bribery?
110
00:05:49,143 --> 00:05:52,438
Not when it's in the interest
of public health.
111
00:05:52,463 --> 00:05:53,503
Nurse Franklin?
112
00:05:55,909 --> 00:05:57,332
What is the meaning of this?
113
00:05:57,333 --> 00:05:59,305
We're just retrieving
some patient files,
114
00:05:59,306 --> 00:06:00,571
Miss Higgins, we won't be long.
115
00:06:00,572 --> 00:06:02,811
And may I ask, who gave
you permission?
116
00:06:02,990 --> 00:06:06,573
It's for Dr Turner's measles trial.
If you have any objections,
117
00:06:06,574 --> 00:06:08,692
do feel free to take it up with him.
118
00:06:41,100 --> 00:06:43,059
Are you on board?
119
00:06:43,084 --> 00:06:44,124
- Yeah.
- Lovely!
120
00:06:45,638 --> 00:06:47,421
You could display one
in your window.
121
00:06:47,422 --> 00:06:48,834
Preferably at eye level.
122
00:06:53,226 --> 00:06:54,266
This looks good!
123
00:07:05,094 --> 00:07:06,131
Enter.
124
00:07:06,226 --> 00:07:07,719
30!
125
00:07:07,744 --> 00:07:10,251
Over 30 mothers have
agreed to attend?
126
00:07:10,276 --> 00:07:13,865
They have, and we were able to hire
the hall at the institute as
127
00:07:13,866 --> 00:07:16,611
the toddler tap class is
currently on hiatus.
128
00:07:16,683 --> 00:07:19,346
Nurse Franklin thought you might
like to give the talk yourself,
129
00:07:19,347 --> 00:07:21,995
Dr Turner,
seeing as we've such a big turnout.
130
00:07:22,019 --> 00:07:23,183
I'd be happy to.
131
00:07:23,208 --> 00:07:25,671
This really is excellent work,
Sister Frances.
132
00:07:25,672 --> 00:07:30,303
We also noticed that Teddy's the
right age for the trial, Mrs Turner.
133
00:07:30,422 --> 00:07:32,461
Yes, that's correct.
134
00:07:32,486 --> 00:07:34,749
So Nurse Franklin wondered if
you might like to have him
135
00:07:34,750 --> 00:07:36,515
vaccinated as part of the talk
136
00:07:36,651 --> 00:07:39,684
to show the mothers that there's
nothing to be worried about?
137
00:07:39,685 --> 00:07:42,644
Well, yes, I suppose we could.
138
00:07:42,716 --> 00:07:45,488
Because, if you don't mind sticking
a big needle in your son's arm,
139
00:07:45,489 --> 00:07:46,788
why should they?
140
00:07:47,446 --> 00:07:48,486
Quite.
141
00:07:50,986 --> 00:07:52,762
Thank you for notifying us,
Mrs Girton.
142
00:07:52,763 --> 00:07:55,328
Morning. Not bad news, I hope?
143
00:07:56,070 --> 00:07:57,909
No, not at all.
144
00:07:58,309 --> 00:08:01,268
My mother writes to inform me that
my cousin is getting married
145
00:08:01,269 --> 00:08:03,026
to a young man she met
at the church picnic.
146
00:08:03,027 --> 00:08:05,306
That's nice for her.
147
00:08:05,500 --> 00:08:07,403
My mother also wonders if
there are any
148
00:08:07,404 --> 00:08:10,382
"clean, well-mannered gentlemen"
attending my own church.
149
00:08:10,383 --> 00:08:11,422
Nurse Dyer?
150
00:08:11,447 --> 00:08:13,407
Betty Marwick's neighbour
has just called
151
00:08:13,408 --> 00:08:15,390
to inform us that her
waters have broken.
152
00:08:15,391 --> 00:08:16,322
On my way.
153
00:08:16,347 --> 00:08:19,226
Nurse Anderson, if you can assist?
154
00:08:19,251 --> 00:08:20,288
Of course.
155
00:08:20,596 --> 00:08:22,939
You'll have rather a full house
to contend with.
156
00:08:22,940 --> 00:08:26,500
As I remember, Betty's children
can be quite lively.
157
00:08:28,943 --> 00:08:29,998
There you go, sweetheart.
158
00:08:29,999 --> 00:08:33,459
Now, you're going to be good as
gold for Mrs Girton, aren't you?
159
00:08:33,460 --> 00:08:36,459
Sharon, come here,
sort your plaits out!
160
00:08:36,484 --> 00:08:38,148
Betty, I really need
to get you into
161
00:08:38,149 --> 00:08:39,744
the bedroom,
so I can examine you.
162
00:08:39,745 --> 00:08:43,863
Here, wait a minute, Nurse - I just
need to find the blessed hairbrush!
163
00:08:46,077 --> 00:08:47,980
I've still not found
any clean bed linen.
164
00:08:47,981 --> 00:08:49,444
That's quite enough, thank you.
165
00:08:49,445 --> 00:08:50,484
Out you go.
166
00:08:50,509 --> 00:08:53,039
You're going to have to
dismantle that tipi.
167
00:08:55,226 --> 00:08:57,524
May I take this
opportunity to offer my
168
00:08:57,549 --> 00:09:00,225
congratulations in person,
Councillor Buckle?
169
00:09:00,226 --> 00:09:02,215
You're very kind, Nurse Crane.
170
00:09:02,306 --> 00:09:05,428
But, of course,
now the hard work really begins.
171
00:09:05,453 --> 00:09:06,788
Indeed.
172
00:09:06,813 --> 00:09:08,252
I'm afraid I, myself,
173
00:09:08,277 --> 00:09:11,437
am contemplating a curtailment
of my additional duties.
174
00:09:11,438 --> 00:09:14,944
Running Cubs alone has proven
somewhat onerous of late.
175
00:09:14,969 --> 00:09:17,552
I hope you won't be
abandoning them entirely?
176
00:09:17,553 --> 00:09:18,872
Not entirely.
177
00:09:19,026 --> 00:09:21,012
But the District Commissioner
has given me
178
00:09:21,013 --> 00:09:24,221
leave to advertise
for assistance.
179
00:09:24,246 --> 00:09:25,805
I'm glad to hear it.
180
00:09:25,946 --> 00:09:28,386
Now, delegation - that's the key.
181
00:09:29,573 --> 00:09:31,892
It is so terribly easy to forget
182
00:09:31,917 --> 00:09:35,423
the damage that can be caused by
the measles infection.
183
00:09:36,045 --> 00:09:39,878
But I have seen children
left with brain damage
184
00:09:39,903 --> 00:09:41,594
or permanent hearing loss.
185
00:09:42,542 --> 00:09:47,181
This common childhood illness
can have very serious consequences.
186
00:09:47,596 --> 00:09:49,043
You mean they can die?
187
00:09:49,068 --> 00:09:53,219
Sadly, yes,
in some cases, it can be fatal.
188
00:09:53,332 --> 00:09:58,651
But if this trial proves successful,
we shall have a vaccine,
189
00:09:58,746 --> 00:10:01,546
which will effectively protect
all our children.
190
00:10:02,662 --> 00:10:04,221
Speaking of which,
191
00:10:04,246 --> 00:10:09,103
if I can introduce our first
volunteer - my own son, Teddy.
192
00:10:19,666 --> 00:10:21,069
Hello, you!
193
00:10:21,094 --> 00:10:22,213
Hello.
194
00:10:22,386 --> 00:10:23,745
It's Dawn Alison Becker.
195
00:10:23,746 --> 00:10:25,994
October the 3rd, 1963.
196
00:10:27,929 --> 00:10:30,503
Sorry, I'm just doing
my mental arithmetic.
197
00:10:31,706 --> 00:10:34,705
I'm afraid Dawn's too young
to take part, Mrs Becker.
198
00:10:34,706 --> 00:10:36,465
It's only for babies
over ten months.
199
00:10:36,466 --> 00:10:39,025
That's nit-picking! Splitting hairs!
200
00:10:39,026 --> 00:10:40,305
I'm sorry.
201
00:10:40,306 --> 00:10:42,385
But we have to do as
the guidelines tell us.
202
00:10:42,386 --> 00:10:45,185
And in the meantime, what are you
telling these babies' mothers?
203
00:10:45,186 --> 00:10:48,985
That measles can blind them,
maim them, even kill them?
204
00:10:48,986 --> 00:10:51,705
But if you're under ten months, you
just have to take your chances?
205
00:10:51,706 --> 00:10:53,425
Mrs Becker, is something amiss?
206
00:10:53,426 --> 00:10:55,505
Do you want to tell her, or shall I?
207
00:10:55,506 --> 00:10:58,321
She's saying that my Dawn
can't have her vaccination.
208
00:10:58,322 --> 00:11:00,094
She's only eight months old.
209
00:11:00,119 --> 00:11:02,278
Then Sister is correct.
210
00:11:02,303 --> 00:11:05,065
But if all goes well with the trial,
it may well be that we can
211
00:11:05,066 --> 00:11:07,305
vaccinate your little girl too
in a year or two.
212
00:11:07,306 --> 00:11:08,346
A year or two?
213
00:11:09,392 --> 00:11:11,339
I'm sorry for wasting your time!
214
00:11:13,711 --> 00:11:16,590
Dear. She was very angry.
215
00:11:16,615 --> 00:11:19,135
No. She was very upset.
216
00:11:27,455 --> 00:11:30,254
All right, precious,
we're nearly there.
217
00:11:30,310 --> 00:11:31,829
Just little pushes.
218
00:11:32,026 --> 00:11:35,106
Little pushes for the head,
nice and steady.
219
00:11:36,999 --> 00:11:39,079
But this baby has other ideas!
220
00:11:42,092 --> 00:11:44,611
You couldn't wait, could you,
sweetheart?
221
00:11:44,636 --> 00:11:47,578
You couldn't wait to come out
and meet your family!
222
00:11:56,572 --> 00:12:00,052
Boy or girl? Nurse?
223
00:12:02,275 --> 00:12:03,315
It's a boy.
224
00:12:10,071 --> 00:12:15,630
Kirk - we're calling him Kirk,
like Kirk Douglas!
225
00:12:16,506 --> 00:12:17,666
Is that right?
226
00:12:19,876 --> 00:12:22,055
You just lie down now.
227
00:12:22,746 --> 00:12:24,570
Catch your breath for a moment.
228
00:12:26,168 --> 00:12:28,967
I loved him in that one
where he was a Viking.
229
00:12:28,992 --> 00:12:32,794
Do you know the one I mean?
He was that handsome!
230
00:12:34,626 --> 00:12:36,962
Well, let's have
a look at him, then.
231
00:12:41,376 --> 00:12:42,416
Nurse?
232
00:12:51,204 --> 00:12:54,022
Betty, now, I don't
want you to be alarmed.
233
00:12:54,047 --> 00:12:56,518
Well, you're alarming me,
just saying that!
234
00:12:57,293 --> 00:12:59,718
You're alarming me
by just looking so kind.
235
00:12:59,719 --> 00:13:01,558
Kirk is fit and well, Betty,
236
00:13:01,583 --> 00:13:03,406
and he's got a prize-winning
pair of lungs!
237
00:13:03,407 --> 00:13:04,946
You heard him just now.
238
00:13:05,222 --> 00:13:08,725
But his top lip and - we think -
the roof of his mouth didn't
239
00:13:08,726 --> 00:13:10,763
develop properly in the womb.
240
00:13:11,614 --> 00:13:14,850
So he doesn't look quite like
your others would've done.
241
00:13:17,793 --> 00:13:19,911
Is that why
you're covering his face?
242
00:13:21,185 --> 00:13:23,152
We didn't want you get a shock.
243
00:13:23,632 --> 00:13:26,515
But you can see for yourself,
when you feel ready.
244
00:13:44,772 --> 00:13:46,361
Have you uncovered him yet?
245
00:13:55,180 --> 00:13:56,707
My God!
246
00:13:57,219 --> 00:13:59,867
We will need the doctor
to take a look at him.
247
00:14:00,186 --> 00:14:02,065
We're going to call
the maternity home
248
00:14:02,066 --> 00:14:04,022
and say we're sending you both over.
249
00:14:04,023 --> 00:14:05,530
Poor little lad.
250
00:14:16,749 --> 00:14:18,963
Can't believe that nurse
turned us away.
251
00:14:18,964 --> 00:14:20,649
But if Dawn's too young...
That's not the point.
252
00:14:20,650 --> 00:14:22,585
You didn't hear
what they were saying.
253
00:14:22,586 --> 00:14:24,912
The horrible things that could
happen if she caught it.
254
00:14:24,913 --> 00:14:26,216
They said Dawn could die.
255
00:14:26,217 --> 00:14:29,112
She's not going to die.
Nothing's going to happen to her.
256
00:14:29,113 --> 00:14:31,290
You've got to stop
thinking like that.
257
00:14:33,058 --> 00:14:35,117
You could try putting her in a cot.
258
00:14:35,317 --> 00:14:37,610
She's getting a bit big
for that thing. She's fine.
259
00:14:37,611 --> 00:14:40,114
And can you remember to leave
your boots outside of the flat?
260
00:14:40,115 --> 00:14:41,805
She's crawling now,
so I don't want you
261
00:14:41,806 --> 00:14:43,447
walking in all the
dirt from the factory.
262
00:14:43,448 --> 00:14:45,620
I can hardly leave 'em in the
corridor. Someone'll pinch 'em.
263
00:14:45,621 --> 00:14:49,210
Put them on the balcony, then!
Is that really too much to ask?
264
00:14:49,587 --> 00:14:56,516
S... O... S.
265
00:14:58,278 --> 00:15:02,201
Well done! Right, Pack.
266
00:15:02,226 --> 00:15:04,959
We shall return to the art of
semaphore at a later date,
267
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:06,303
but for now if you would please
268
00:15:06,304 --> 00:15:09,187
return your flags to
the receptacle on this table.
269
00:15:11,278 --> 00:15:16,441
Now, a reminder for your mothers -
there will be no meeting
270
00:15:16,466 --> 00:15:21,788
on the 18th because, as you may
know, it's the Whitsun Bank Holiday.
271
00:15:21,813 --> 00:15:23,865
My Auntie Lorna's going to Southend.
272
00:15:23,866 --> 00:15:26,705
She says they have ice creams
and real live donkeys.
273
00:15:26,706 --> 00:15:27,985
So I understand.
274
00:15:27,986 --> 00:15:31,575
She said she'd take me next year,
but Mum says she's all talk.
275
00:15:34,670 --> 00:15:35,989
All right, young man.
276
00:15:36,014 --> 00:15:37,213
All done.
277
00:15:37,238 --> 00:15:38,996
So how big is it?
278
00:15:39,021 --> 00:15:41,021
This gap in the roof of his mouth?
279
00:15:41,699 --> 00:15:43,018
It's sizeable.
280
00:15:43,175 --> 00:15:46,678
In a day or two, the surgeon at St
Cuthbert's will have a look at him
281
00:15:46,679 --> 00:15:48,442
and start to plan the operation.
282
00:15:48,443 --> 00:15:51,053
So, once he's had that,
will he be all right?
283
00:15:51,408 --> 00:15:54,047
We can repair his lip straight away.
284
00:15:54,478 --> 00:15:57,963
But the surgery inside the mouth
won't be for some months.
285
00:15:58,731 --> 00:16:00,561
One step at a time.
286
00:16:01,589 --> 00:16:03,337
I'll leave you with these ladies.
287
00:16:03,338 --> 00:16:05,633
I think the young man's
feeling peckish.
288
00:16:07,337 --> 00:16:09,320
Is he in pain?
Is that why he's crying?
289
00:16:09,321 --> 00:16:10,600
No, not at all.
290
00:16:10,625 --> 00:16:12,587
It's like Doctor said,
he's just hungry.
291
00:16:12,588 --> 00:16:15,491
Luckily, we have some bottles
with long teats the little chap
292
00:16:15,492 --> 00:16:17,367
will be able to drink out of
quite happily.
293
00:16:17,368 --> 00:16:18,991
We'll set you up with the pump.
294
00:16:18,992 --> 00:16:21,432
Pump? What do you mean, pump?
295
00:16:24,105 --> 00:16:26,584
- Nurse Crane!
- Good Lord!
296
00:16:26,670 --> 00:16:30,469
It would behove you to wear
a heavier shoe or at the very least
297
00:16:30,494 --> 00:16:33,145
to announce your presence
in a more timely fashion!
298
00:16:33,146 --> 00:16:36,866
My apologies but, er, I have come
to offer my services.
299
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,119
In what capacity?
300
00:16:39,144 --> 00:16:41,559
For the position of
Assistant Cubmaster,
301
00:16:41,584 --> 00:16:43,203
as per your advertisement.
302
00:16:43,625 --> 00:16:47,584
I have extensive experience within
the scouting community
303
00:16:47,609 --> 00:16:51,686
and can provide references from
the Akela at my former pack
304
00:16:51,711 --> 00:16:53,829
in Stepney, should you require them.
305
00:16:54,486 --> 00:17:00,005
Well, providing the
District Commissioner is agreeable,
306
00:17:00,030 --> 00:17:04,110
I suppose we can consider the
implementation of a trial period.
307
00:17:06,631 --> 00:17:08,391
- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.
308
00:17:10,897 --> 00:17:12,545
I'd seen it in training, but
309
00:17:12,786 --> 00:17:15,570
I'd never delivered a baby
with a cleft palate before.
310
00:17:15,571 --> 00:17:17,327
It did come as quite a shock.
311
00:17:17,352 --> 00:17:19,976
The condition can be
extremely disfiguring,
312
00:17:20,001 --> 00:17:22,600
but a good surgeon
really can work wonders.
313
00:17:22,866 --> 00:17:26,893
Of course, at this stage, the main
worry is that he'll fail to thrive.
314
00:17:26,894 --> 00:17:30,277
To be honest, I didn't feel I knew
enough to offer much assistance.
315
00:17:30,278 --> 00:17:32,031
Well, that's easily remedied.
316
00:17:32,246 --> 00:17:35,846
I've a reference book with
a chapter on facial anomalies.
317
00:17:38,826 --> 00:17:41,268
If you can visualise the anatomy,
318
00:17:41,293 --> 00:17:44,646
you'll find it helps immeasurably
with the practical care.
319
00:17:47,666 --> 00:17:50,665
Phyllis,
can't I tempt you to a pedicure?
320
00:17:50,666 --> 00:17:53,665
One wouldn't want to reveal
unsandalworthy feet
321
00:17:53,666 --> 00:17:55,921
in this glorious warm weather.
322
00:17:56,039 --> 00:17:57,438
Rest assured, Trixie.
323
00:17:57,518 --> 00:18:00,468
In the unlikely event that
I should don sandals,
324
00:18:00,493 --> 00:18:02,729
they will be worn with
a pair of socks.
325
00:18:02,902 --> 00:18:05,205
My mother never approved
of painted toes.
326
00:18:05,206 --> 00:18:06,869
She said they were too forward.
327
00:18:06,870 --> 00:18:10,495
But a soft pastel in a pearl finish,
it's so elegant.
328
00:18:10,666 --> 00:18:12,961
It's what all the Italians
were wearing.
329
00:18:13,496 --> 00:18:17,096
Why shouldn't we bring a little
Portofino glamour to Poplar?
330
00:18:21,249 --> 00:18:23,402
Would you credit it?
The one time the
331
00:18:23,427 --> 00:18:25,441
wholesaler's delivery
comes early!
332
00:18:25,466 --> 00:18:27,426
I thought I'd never get away.
333
00:18:27,451 --> 00:18:29,206
Is no-one here yet?
334
00:18:29,231 --> 00:18:32,372
The surgery was advertised as
starting at nine sharp.
335
00:18:32,941 --> 00:18:35,061
How about we get you
settled in the café
336
00:18:35,062 --> 00:18:37,035
and I'll make you a
nice cup of tea?
337
00:18:37,036 --> 00:18:38,739
Well, just mind you put the sign up
338
00:18:38,740 --> 00:18:42,443
because I can't have people
traipsing in, looking for iced buns,
339
00:18:42,444 --> 00:18:45,084
when I'm conducting
private consultations.
340
00:18:51,788 --> 00:18:56,467
Martin, feel her head.
Do you think she's hot?
341
00:18:56,750 --> 00:18:58,229
Maybe a bit.
342
00:18:58,284 --> 00:18:59,507
Look how flushed she is.
343
00:18:59,508 --> 00:19:01,087
Or maybe she's teething.
344
00:19:01,112 --> 00:19:04,471
Hey, that it, sweetheart?
Getting your first tooth?
345
00:19:04,586 --> 00:19:05,945
She's been awake half the night.
346
00:19:05,946 --> 00:19:08,105
She's not the only one -
that sofa's hard as a rock.
347
00:19:08,106 --> 00:19:09,791
Been months since I got
a decent night's sleep.
348
00:19:09,792 --> 00:19:13,322
Martin, I'm serious - I think
there's something really wrong.
349
00:19:17,175 --> 00:19:20,939
A beach? Outside Nonnatus House?
350
00:19:21,870 --> 00:19:23,429
That is correct.
351
00:19:23,454 --> 00:19:27,453
I would like the council's
permission to create a sandpit
352
00:19:27,478 --> 00:19:30,406
in the courtyard
for Whitsun Bank Holiday.
353
00:19:30,486 --> 00:19:33,205
And you think this is a...
a good idea?
354
00:19:33,230 --> 00:19:37,173
Well, as Nurse Crane says, if the
young ones can't get to the seaside,
355
00:19:37,174 --> 00:19:39,185
then why don't we bring
the seaside to them?
356
00:19:39,186 --> 00:19:41,684
I know a man
I can see about some sand.
357
00:19:41,709 --> 00:19:45,412
I believe we could obtain all the
necessary materials as donations
358
00:19:45,413 --> 00:19:49,170
from local builders and tradesmen,
so there would be no cost entailed.
359
00:19:49,171 --> 00:19:52,810
I'm sorry, but I've never heard
anything so ridiculous.
360
00:19:52,835 --> 00:19:57,099
I mean, if people are that keen,
they can always go to Tower Beach.
361
00:19:57,415 --> 00:20:00,694
Come on, Vi!
Where's your sense of fun?
362
00:20:00,719 --> 00:20:04,318
I have to act in the best
interests of the community.
363
00:20:04,343 --> 00:20:06,723
To my mind, this would be just that.
364
00:20:06,936 --> 00:20:10,976
It will certainly create
a strong feeling of civic pride.
365
00:20:16,158 --> 00:20:21,601
If - and only if - you can guarantee
that every single grain of sand
366
00:20:21,626 --> 00:20:23,385
is cleared by Tuesday morning.
367
00:20:23,386 --> 00:20:27,362
You have my word, as an officer
of the law, Madam Councillor.
368
00:20:27,387 --> 00:20:29,266
Very well, then.
369
00:20:29,708 --> 00:20:31,198
We shall have a beach.
370
00:20:39,566 --> 00:20:42,743
Nurse, I don't mean to be unkind -
371
00:20:42,806 --> 00:20:46,625
I know her baby's come out a bit
funny, but wouldn't it be better
372
00:20:46,626 --> 00:20:48,479
to move her to a room of her own?
373
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,360
Better for who, exactly?
374
00:20:57,319 --> 00:21:00,078
I can't do it, Nurse! I just can't.
375
00:21:00,103 --> 00:21:04,542
My milk's in, and I've been
up all night with that flaming pump!
376
00:21:04,567 --> 00:21:08,406
I can hardly get anything,
and what I did get he won't take!
377
00:21:08,431 --> 00:21:09,745
You know, with the others,
378
00:21:09,746 --> 00:21:12,119
I just used to clamp 'em on
and we were away!
379
00:21:12,120 --> 00:21:13,740
Now look at me!
380
00:21:13,765 --> 00:21:16,764
And I can hear what
they're saying out there.
381
00:21:17,003 --> 00:21:19,241
Well,
they won't be saying it any more.
382
00:21:19,626 --> 00:21:22,905
Meanwhile, the pump can have
its marching orders.
383
00:21:22,906 --> 00:21:24,105
Shh, shh, shh, shh!
384
00:21:24,106 --> 00:21:26,065
I'll mix him a feed from
powdered milk,
385
00:21:26,066 --> 00:21:28,949
and we'll just concentrate on
getting it down him.
386
00:21:34,884 --> 00:21:36,545
Please, I need to see the doctor.
387
00:21:36,546 --> 00:21:37,705
Do you have an appointment?
388
00:21:37,706 --> 00:21:40,222
No, but I'm worried there's
something wrong with my baby.
389
00:21:40,223 --> 00:21:42,185
Then I shall endeavour to be
of assistance
390
00:21:42,186 --> 00:21:45,105
but, as you can see, there are
already several patients waiting.
391
00:21:45,106 --> 00:21:47,634
But she's very hot. I think
it might be something serious.
392
00:21:47,635 --> 00:21:50,194
Mrs Becker, everything all right?
Doctor...
393
00:21:50,219 --> 00:21:53,522
I was just explaining to Mrs Becker
that, without an appointment...
394
00:21:53,523 --> 00:21:55,777
Please, can you just take
a look at her?
395
00:21:55,778 --> 00:21:57,720
Something's not right, I know it.
396
00:21:59,968 --> 00:22:01,008
Please.
397
00:22:06,170 --> 00:22:08,113
She does have a slight temperature.
398
00:22:08,114 --> 00:22:10,457
But that's because she's teething.
399
00:22:11,036 --> 00:22:13,905
And you did have her quite
wrapped up for the time of year.
400
00:22:13,906 --> 00:22:15,898
All the books say to keep 'em warm.
401
00:22:15,899 --> 00:22:17,322
I haven't taken her out
without a hat and
402
00:22:17,323 --> 00:22:18,588
a matinee jacket
since she was born.
403
00:22:18,589 --> 00:22:21,354
The sunshine is good for them.
Good in what way?
404
00:22:21,942 --> 00:22:24,770
You don't need me to blind you
with science, but there are a lot...
405
00:22:24,771 --> 00:22:27,114
I do! You do need to
blind me with science.
406
00:22:27,115 --> 00:22:28,698
I need to know everything
about this.
407
00:22:28,699 --> 00:22:31,058
Everything about
bringing up a child.
408
00:22:31,155 --> 00:22:35,378
About getting things right,
about not letting things go wrong.
409
00:22:35,403 --> 00:22:38,562
It's normal to be anxious
around the first baby.
410
00:22:38,645 --> 00:22:41,212
But you're doing
really, really well.
411
00:22:41,237 --> 00:22:42,276
So far.
412
00:22:42,301 --> 00:22:46,060
She needs her mid-morning milk.
I have her on a very strict routine.
413
00:22:46,061 --> 00:22:49,358
We can have a chat about your
worries, if you aren't in a rush.
414
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,889
No, I've already wasted
enough of your time.
415
00:23:04,980 --> 00:23:07,283
I'll admit I wasn't aware
the vaccination trial
416
00:23:07,284 --> 00:23:09,587
would generate
so much additional paperwork.
417
00:23:09,588 --> 00:23:14,064
Accurate record-keeping is the
cornerstone of medical advancement.
418
00:23:14,546 --> 00:23:16,921
Dr Turner might do well
to remember that
419
00:23:16,946 --> 00:23:19,825
before allowing all and sundry
access to my filing system.
420
00:23:19,826 --> 00:23:23,319
Well, we're all working towards
the same goal, aren't we?
421
00:23:23,344 --> 00:23:26,983
Miss Higgins tells me
you let Mrs Becker jump the queue.
422
00:23:27,032 --> 00:23:30,524
Mrs Becker was in rather a state
about her baby's temperature.
423
00:23:30,525 --> 00:23:32,044
Was anything wrong?
424
00:23:32,069 --> 00:23:35,136
With the baby, no -
a simple case of teething.
425
00:23:35,404 --> 00:23:37,947
But the mother was
rather in need of reassurance.
426
00:23:37,948 --> 00:23:39,251
They're new to the area.
427
00:23:39,252 --> 00:23:41,666
She may be feeling
a little isolated.
428
00:23:41,926 --> 00:23:43,829
Perhaps I should
try and look in on her?
429
00:23:43,830 --> 00:23:46,419
That would be
a very neighbourly thing to do.
430
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:48,379
Excuse me, please.
431
00:23:51,330 --> 00:23:52,929
You might get on better...
432
00:23:53,102 --> 00:23:56,209
...if you can picture
what's going on inside.
433
00:23:56,689 --> 00:24:02,125
Try putting your finger
in his mouth, like this.
434
00:24:03,565 --> 00:24:06,242
And just gently feel for the hole.
435
00:24:06,267 --> 00:24:08,186
I'm scared I'll hurt him.
436
00:24:08,211 --> 00:24:09,930
It's not sore.
437
00:24:10,143 --> 00:24:13,496
It's not like it's an injury.
It's just the way he's made.
438
00:24:14,319 --> 00:24:15,666
Right. Yeah?
439
00:24:18,826 --> 00:24:19,866
There we are.
440
00:24:29,298 --> 00:24:31,124
God, it goes ever so far back.
441
00:24:31,499 --> 00:24:34,558
That's why we need to be careful
where the teat goes.
442
00:24:35,998 --> 00:24:38,206
Come on. Let's have another go.
443
00:24:48,786 --> 00:24:52,642
I think it's working!
I think he's getting something!
444
00:24:52,667 --> 00:24:55,106
You're good at this, Betty.
445
00:24:55,131 --> 00:24:56,171
Yeah, we'll see.
446
00:24:58,156 --> 00:25:00,705
It's all very well,
Nurse Crane coming up with this
447
00:25:00,706 --> 00:25:04,065
wild scheme of hers, but she's no
idea the level of planning involved.
448
00:25:04,066 --> 00:25:07,545
There's permits to organise, there's
road closures to be approved.
449
00:25:07,546 --> 00:25:09,385
Ooh, how did you
get on with the sand?
450
00:25:09,386 --> 00:25:12,825
All sorted - one tonne of
the finest quality builders' sand
451
00:25:12,826 --> 00:25:15,141
to be delivered
Saturday before Bank Holiday.
452
00:25:15,142 --> 00:25:16,320
Well done!
453
00:25:17,152 --> 00:25:21,151
I was thinking - we could have
some sort of opening ceremony,
454
00:25:21,176 --> 00:25:24,799
make a bit of an occasion of it,
perhaps we could ask the mayor?
455
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,548
Or a certain very attractive
lady councillor?
456
00:25:29,158 --> 00:25:30,421
Fred! Don't be daft.
457
00:25:30,422 --> 00:25:34,187
Why not? After all, you're the one
that's making all this happen.
458
00:25:36,826 --> 00:25:38,665
Sister Hilda and Nurse Dyer,
459
00:25:38,666 --> 00:25:41,277
you will be assisting Mrs Turner
at the maternity home.
460
00:25:41,278 --> 00:25:45,101
Betty Marwick is to see the surgeon
at St Cuthbert's this afternoon,
461
00:25:45,102 --> 00:25:48,245
so she will need to be escorted to
and from the hospital with baby.
462
00:25:48,246 --> 00:25:49,295
Of course.
463
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,127
Nurse Crane, do you know
anything about
464
00:25:51,128 --> 00:25:53,098
a rather large quantity of sand?
465
00:26:01,885 --> 00:26:04,533
I'm afraid it appears to be
blocking your car.
466
00:26:24,673 --> 00:26:25,713
Ready?
467
00:26:39,859 --> 00:26:42,271
It's a mother's worst nightmare,
isn't it?
468
00:26:47,877 --> 00:26:52,245
It was supposed to be delivered next
week and piled against the wall!
469
00:26:53,451 --> 00:26:56,737
I reckon Nolly Watling
got the wrong end of the stick.
470
00:26:56,867 --> 00:26:58,057
You think?
471
00:26:58,147 --> 00:27:01,444
Well, you did ask for a beach.
472
00:27:01,469 --> 00:27:02,940
It will have to be moved.
473
00:27:02,965 --> 00:27:06,604
I require access to my vehicle
at all times!
474
00:27:06,629 --> 00:27:08,669
Well, get to it, then, Fred.
475
00:27:13,079 --> 00:27:16,798
Mrs Becker, I'm sorry to call in
unannounced, but I understand
476
00:27:16,823 --> 00:27:20,046
from Dr Turner that your little
one's been suffering with her teeth.
477
00:27:20,047 --> 00:27:22,286
Er, yes, that's right.
478
00:27:22,466 --> 00:27:26,225
Well, I happen to have
some marvellous teething powders
479
00:27:26,226 --> 00:27:27,926
that I thought might help.
480
00:27:28,206 --> 00:27:29,584
That's very kind.
481
00:27:29,609 --> 00:27:30,777
I was just changing the bed.
482
00:27:30,778 --> 00:27:32,797
I won't hold you up.
483
00:27:32,969 --> 00:27:34,906
No. Please, come in.
484
00:27:36,473 --> 00:27:40,504
After the palate repair, your son
may have some difficulty breathing,
485
00:27:40,529 --> 00:27:42,392
in which case we shall intubate.
486
00:27:42,393 --> 00:27:44,552
And what's that?
487
00:27:44,652 --> 00:27:46,195
It's a very simple procedure.
488
00:27:46,196 --> 00:27:49,674
We insert a tube into the windpipe
which connects to a ventilator.
489
00:27:49,675 --> 00:27:51,714
God!
490
00:27:51,906 --> 00:27:56,082
It's unlikely he will require
assistance for more than a few days.
491
00:27:56,107 --> 00:28:00,066
However, your son may experience
some hearing loss moving forward,
492
00:28:00,091 --> 00:28:02,370
as well as dental and speech issues.
493
00:28:02,395 --> 00:28:06,053
But there's a great deal that can be
done with ongoing treatment.
494
00:28:06,054 --> 00:28:08,974
Now, do you have any questions,
Mrs Marwick?
495
00:28:14,597 --> 00:28:17,957
She's a smashing little eater!
And so bonnie.
496
00:28:19,901 --> 00:28:22,905
It must be quite lonely,
on your own with a little one,
497
00:28:22,906 --> 00:28:24,745
and in a new place to boot.
498
00:28:24,746 --> 00:28:26,425
I should be used to it.
499
00:28:26,426 --> 00:28:29,178
We moved all the time
when Martin was in the Army.
500
00:28:29,179 --> 00:28:32,960
Nevertheless, it's different
once you've a baby to care for.
501
00:28:32,985 --> 00:28:34,980
Yes, it is.
502
00:28:36,365 --> 00:28:40,797
I'm sorry about the other day
at the institute.
503
00:28:42,106 --> 00:28:44,622
- I shouldn't have got so upset.
- Not at all.
504
00:28:44,623 --> 00:28:47,094
We all just want to
keep our children safe.
505
00:28:49,900 --> 00:28:52,306
I'm afraid I shall
have to get going.
506
00:28:52,331 --> 00:28:54,970
No, I'll see myself out.
507
00:28:54,995 --> 00:28:57,643
But do come along to the playgroup
if you can.
508
00:28:57,706 --> 00:29:00,745
It's such a help to be able to
ask others for advice
509
00:29:00,746 --> 00:29:02,452
when you're a first-time mum.
510
00:29:03,695 --> 00:29:05,295
I'm not a first-time mum.
511
00:29:07,235 --> 00:29:08,275
You aren't?
512
00:29:10,987 --> 00:29:12,027
I'm sorry.
513
00:29:13,685 --> 00:29:15,588
Would you like to tell me
what happened?
514
00:29:15,589 --> 00:29:16,948
No.
515
00:29:16,973 --> 00:29:18,185
I don't talk about it.
516
00:29:18,186 --> 00:29:19,865
Not to anyone.
517
00:29:19,890 --> 00:29:22,126
Everybody said
that was the better way.
518
00:29:24,479 --> 00:29:25,919
Of course.
519
00:29:40,442 --> 00:29:42,560
At least now you know
what's to come.
520
00:29:42,569 --> 00:29:44,808
All those operations and treatments?
521
00:29:44,833 --> 00:29:47,467
We can make sure
you have help with the children.
522
00:29:47,468 --> 00:29:50,554
What, some stranger?
They won't want that.
523
00:29:51,674 --> 00:29:54,659
Betty, why not have the children
come and visit?
524
00:29:54,826 --> 00:29:56,345
Let them meet their little brother.
525
00:29:56,346 --> 00:29:58,147
It might make things feel
a bit more normal.
526
00:29:58,148 --> 00:30:03,375
No, it'll just upset 'em.
It's hard enough.
527
00:30:09,678 --> 00:30:13,158
Phyllis, I wondered if
I might ask a favour?
528
00:30:17,045 --> 00:30:18,884
I don't understand.
529
00:30:19,197 --> 00:30:20,956
You want to take his picture?
530
00:30:20,981 --> 00:30:24,478
I know you're worried Kirk's
appearance might come as a shock
531
00:30:24,479 --> 00:30:28,892
to the other children, so I thought,
if we show them a photograph
532
00:30:28,917 --> 00:30:32,565
and let them get used to it,
then it won't seem so frightening.
533
00:30:33,295 --> 00:30:34,855
I suppose.
534
00:30:39,346 --> 00:30:42,094
Let's find a clean bib, then,
shall we, Nurse?
535
00:30:42,119 --> 00:30:44,414
We want this young man
looking his best.
536
00:30:49,036 --> 00:30:53,510
Hazel Becker's previous GP
says that she gave birth to a son
537
00:30:53,666 --> 00:30:55,090
just over three years ago.
538
00:30:55,091 --> 00:30:57,010
So Dawn isn't her first baby?
539
00:30:57,035 --> 00:31:00,878
The little boy died in his sleep,
aged eight months.
540
00:31:01,310 --> 00:31:06,069
An unexplained death?
Was any cause found?
541
00:31:06,094 --> 00:31:07,666
There so seldom is.
542
00:31:07,691 --> 00:31:10,050
Imagine the torture for the parents.
543
00:31:10,346 --> 00:31:12,464
Apparently, poor
Hazel found the lack
544
00:31:12,486 --> 00:31:14,465
of an explanation
very, very hard.
545
00:31:14,466 --> 00:31:17,225
KNOCK ON DOOR Enter.
546
00:31:17,226 --> 00:31:20,185
Mrs Becker's notes, Dr Turner,
delivered by messenger.
547
00:31:20,186 --> 00:31:21,785
I did tip him out of the petty cash.
548
00:31:21,786 --> 00:31:23,905
But only sixpence
because he was chewing gum.
549
00:31:23,906 --> 00:31:26,145
Is the postmortem report included?
550
00:31:26,146 --> 00:31:28,289
I took the liberty of
placing it on the top.
551
00:31:28,290 --> 00:31:30,793
There's a particular detail
I felt you ought to note.
552
00:31:30,794 --> 00:31:34,993
I'm sure Doctor is quite capable of
directing his own investigations.
553
00:31:35,066 --> 00:31:37,545
The date of the demise
of the little boy.
554
00:31:37,546 --> 00:31:40,817
He died in May,
and an anniversary is approaching.
555
00:31:40,842 --> 00:31:42,865
Pain can be redoubled
at such a time,
556
00:31:42,866 --> 00:31:46,026
as those of us
who have been bereaved will testify.
557
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:54,920
Hazel is locked in grief
and old patterns.
558
00:31:56,175 --> 00:31:59,015
Silence and secrecy
have made things worse.
559
00:32:08,264 --> 00:32:09,864
Just need my pillow.
560
00:32:14,786 --> 00:32:17,572
Will you at least
try and get some sleep? Of course.
561
00:32:17,573 --> 00:32:20,809
You can't watch her all night.
Shh! She's nearly asleep.
562
00:32:20,826 --> 00:32:23,490
I still think we should try
putting her in her own room.
563
00:32:23,491 --> 00:32:24,754
That way, you can sleep.
564
00:32:24,755 --> 00:32:27,509
Sleep through her crying?
Sleep through her choking?
565
00:32:27,510 --> 00:32:28,939
Sleep through her
stopping breathing?
566
00:32:28,940 --> 00:32:32,588
When is this going to stop, Hazel?
We can't carry on like this!
567
00:32:33,516 --> 00:32:37,636
Now look what you've done!
Shh, it's OK.
568
00:32:39,973 --> 00:32:45,212
Shh! Shh!
569
00:32:45,619 --> 00:32:46,859
Get away!
570
00:32:49,986 --> 00:32:52,866
We shall have no defecation here!
571
00:32:55,676 --> 00:32:59,275
The thing to remember is that
Kirk looks quite poorly,
572
00:32:59,557 --> 00:33:02,793
but the doctors are going to be
able to make him better.
573
00:33:04,766 --> 00:33:07,472
Would you like to see
the picture too, Lynette?
574
00:33:11,428 --> 00:33:12,913
Hey!
575
00:33:12,938 --> 00:33:15,733
She's not stopped crying
since her mum went.
576
00:33:15,758 --> 00:33:17,117
And as for them boys!
577
00:33:17,142 --> 00:33:19,541
Betty's not so much brought them up
578
00:33:19,566 --> 00:33:22,032
as turned them loose
and let them run wild!
579
00:33:22,033 --> 00:33:24,563
And it's too much for me
with my rheumatics.
580
00:33:29,408 --> 00:33:30,414
Mum! Mum!
581
00:33:30,439 --> 00:33:32,783
Slowly, slowly now.
It's not a playground.
582
00:33:32,784 --> 00:33:34,263
Hello, baby Kirk!
583
00:33:34,288 --> 00:33:36,145
Careful there - mind your brother.
584
00:33:36,146 --> 00:33:38,465
So you are coming home now, are you?
585
00:33:38,466 --> 00:33:41,878
Because, I'm sorry, lovey,
this lot's more than I can take.
586
00:33:46,850 --> 00:33:48,450
Hey, shh, quiet!
587
00:33:54,590 --> 00:33:56,580
Just give it another couple of days.
588
00:33:56,581 --> 00:33:58,587
I can't. I need to go home.
589
00:33:58,612 --> 00:34:00,665
It'll be so much better
for Kirk if you stay.
590
00:34:00,666 --> 00:34:02,465
I've got six kids, not just one.
591
00:34:02,466 --> 00:34:04,084
And it's better for them
to have me home.
592
00:34:04,085 --> 00:34:05,318
When's your husband coming back?
593
00:34:05,319 --> 00:34:08,357
I don't know,
depends if he picks up another ship.
594
00:34:12,253 --> 00:34:15,036
I was also thinking about
a paddling pool.
595
00:34:15,327 --> 00:34:16,526
Yes?
596
00:34:16,629 --> 00:34:20,688
Apparently, the Brownies had a great
big one at their summer jamboree.
597
00:34:20,812 --> 00:34:22,169
I think it would be just the thing.
598
00:34:22,170 --> 00:34:25,356
I mean, you can't have the beach
without the sea, can you?
599
00:34:25,357 --> 00:34:26,516
No, I suppose not.
600
00:34:26,780 --> 00:34:29,137
So I'll leave that to you, then.
601
00:34:29,162 --> 00:34:33,110
And if you can ask Sister Julienne
to sign the waiver on behalf
602
00:34:33,135 --> 00:34:35,654
of Nonnatus House regarding
road closures.
603
00:34:35,679 --> 00:34:38,612
And, of course, there's still
the decorations to finalise.
604
00:34:38,613 --> 00:34:42,627
Well, I had merely envisioned
a few swathes of bunting.
605
00:34:42,683 --> 00:34:45,186
But should you wish to provide
something more elaborate...
606
00:34:45,187 --> 00:34:47,491
No - bunting will be fine.
607
00:34:47,532 --> 00:34:49,411
Your towering edifice of dirt
608
00:34:49,506 --> 00:34:52,626
has been claimed by
the local feline population.
609
00:34:53,706 --> 00:34:59,376
Come Whitsun, I predict it shall be
contaminated beyond all repair.
610
00:34:59,401 --> 00:35:03,713
I shall speak to Mr Buckle
about finding some tarpaulins.
611
00:35:03,738 --> 00:35:07,049
Well, I think that seems to be
everything for now.
612
00:35:08,583 --> 00:35:12,035
Goodness! This really is becoming
quite a production.
613
00:35:12,422 --> 00:35:17,622
More like a three-ring circus, and I
think we know who the ringmaster is.
614
00:35:21,453 --> 00:35:23,924
I won't tell you again -
get back into bed!
615
00:35:31,389 --> 00:35:34,331
It's all right! It's all right!
We're nearly there.
616
00:35:36,305 --> 00:35:38,744
For God... It can't
still be too hot!
617
00:35:38,769 --> 00:35:40,089
Shh!
618
00:35:41,022 --> 00:35:42,141
What now?
619
00:35:42,166 --> 00:35:43,814
Lynette's wet the bed again.
620
00:35:48,601 --> 00:35:51,320
Mrs Becker, I'm so glad
you could come.
621
00:35:51,375 --> 00:35:54,611
I might not stay very long.
Had a bit of a broken night.
622
00:35:57,106 --> 00:35:59,825
They've sent through all these dates
for follow-up appointments -
623
00:35:59,826 --> 00:36:01,800
half a dozen of 'em - and it says
he's going to be at the hospital
624
00:36:01,801 --> 00:36:03,186
for at least a week!
625
00:36:03,211 --> 00:36:05,523
Look, what have I
said about fighting
626
00:36:05,548 --> 00:36:07,554
in the kitchen? Go on, get out!
627
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,900
He will need quite a bit of time
to recover after the surgery.
628
00:36:10,901 --> 00:36:12,404
But this is just the start,
isn't it?
629
00:36:12,405 --> 00:36:14,762
I mean, the surgeon says
the other operations
630
00:36:14,763 --> 00:36:16,705
are going to be
even more serious.
631
00:36:16,750 --> 00:36:19,110
Here, I need to make up
another bottle.
632
00:36:20,613 --> 00:36:21,947
And that's another thing! You know,
633
00:36:21,948 --> 00:36:24,345
I thought formula was meant
to make it easy.
634
00:36:24,346 --> 00:36:26,785
Well, what with all the heating
and sterilising, and now I'm
635
00:36:26,786 --> 00:36:30,142
running out of the blessed stuff,
and I ain't got no time to buy any!
636
00:36:30,143 --> 00:36:32,908
Just sit down a minute.
I'll make up the bottle.
637
00:36:34,309 --> 00:36:36,052
Wasn't like this with the others.
638
00:36:36,053 --> 00:36:37,692
It was so easy with them.
639
00:36:37,717 --> 00:36:39,129
I knew what I was doing.
640
00:36:40,986 --> 00:36:42,480
He's feeling a bit hot.
641
00:36:42,505 --> 00:36:44,505
That'll be from all the screaming.
642
00:36:46,261 --> 00:36:47,301
Something wrong?
643
00:36:49,388 --> 00:36:53,385
♪ The driver on the bus
goes move on down
644
00:36:53,386 --> 00:36:56,065

650
00:37:11,987 --> 00:37:14,158
No! Goodness!
651
00:37:14,266 --> 00:37:16,077
Did you see that?
She just hit my daughter!
652
00:37:16,078 --> 00:37:17,263
Dear.
653
00:37:17,421 --> 00:37:19,484
- I'm so sorry.
- What is wrong with you?
654
00:37:19,485 --> 00:37:20,604
I didn't mean...
655
00:37:20,629 --> 00:37:23,892
Yeah, you should go - you're
not fit to be around children.
656
00:37:23,893 --> 00:37:24,932
You hear me?
657
00:37:24,957 --> 00:37:26,840
Let's all remain calm, shall we?
658
00:37:34,577 --> 00:37:35,617
Copper!
659
00:37:43,735 --> 00:37:45,574
Poor little soldier.
660
00:37:45,930 --> 00:37:50,201
I'm afraid it looks as though
he's breathed in some of the milk
661
00:37:50,226 --> 00:37:51,465
while he was feeding.
662
00:37:51,466 --> 00:37:53,702
It will have been
irritating his lungs.
663
00:37:53,746 --> 00:37:56,327
It's my fault. I couldn't
get it to go down the right way.
664
00:37:56,328 --> 00:37:58,463
You are doing really well, Betty.
665
00:37:58,586 --> 00:38:01,745
Feeding a baby like Kirk
can be a bit tricky
666
00:38:01,746 --> 00:38:03,394
till you get the hang of it.
667
00:38:03,418 --> 00:38:07,580
I will give you some antibiotics
to keep any infection at bay.
668
00:38:07,605 --> 00:38:08,625
I'm sorry.
669
00:38:08,626 --> 00:38:10,842
It's just so much harder now
I'm on me own at home.
670
00:38:10,843 --> 00:38:13,785
You're not on your own,
I promise you.
671
00:38:13,786 --> 00:38:16,142
You can phone for us at any time
of the night or day.
672
00:38:16,143 --> 00:38:19,614
And I will drop in and give this one
the once-over tomorrow.
673
00:38:27,606 --> 00:38:30,749
I've seen so many women struggling
on their own over the years.
674
00:38:30,750 --> 00:38:32,589
Husbands dead or drunk.
675
00:38:32,786 --> 00:38:35,141
Or in prison or at sea.
676
00:38:35,166 --> 00:38:36,716
Like Betty's other half.
677
00:38:36,741 --> 00:38:38,260
Most of them cope.
678
00:38:38,466 --> 00:38:40,441
But they don't always thrive.
679
00:38:40,466 --> 00:38:43,154
They need support,
if they're going to do that.
680
00:38:43,155 --> 00:38:44,632
Dr Turner?
681
00:38:44,657 --> 00:38:46,409
Nurse, erm...
682
00:38:46,434 --> 00:38:49,551
...I was hoping to speak to
Mrs Betty Marwick.
683
00:38:49,716 --> 00:38:51,834
Is now an appropriate moment
to call?
684
00:38:56,186 --> 00:38:58,668
This is not the first
time I've witnessed your
685
00:38:58,669 --> 00:39:01,282
son and his friend driving
in a reckless manner.
686
00:39:01,283 --> 00:39:03,278
You said Keith
wasn't the one driving.
687
00:39:03,279 --> 00:39:04,758
In this instance.
688
00:39:04,783 --> 00:39:08,222
But both your son and his friend
have repeatedly driven in
689
00:39:08,247 --> 00:39:12,166
such a manner to risk damage to
other vehicles, not to mention
690
00:39:12,226 --> 00:39:13,905
the potential to endanger life.
691
00:39:13,906 --> 00:39:16,857
- We never damaged anything.
- >Look, that is enough from you!
692
00:39:16,858 --> 00:39:19,377
- Is there anything else?
- Not at present.
693
00:39:19,402 --> 00:39:21,638
But I'll be keeping
my eye on you, son.
694
00:39:26,266 --> 00:39:28,024
As if I haven't enough to deal with!
695
00:39:28,025 --> 00:39:29,656
Go on - out of my sight!
696
00:39:38,706 --> 00:39:40,584
Good girl. There we go.
697
00:39:44,075 --> 00:39:45,955
God! God!
698
00:39:51,226 --> 00:39:53,050
No, no, no, no, no, please!
699
00:40:04,306 --> 00:40:06,846
Do you know what I thought
last night?
700
00:40:06,871 --> 00:40:10,577
When Kirk wouldn't stop crying
and I couldn't do anything right?
701
00:40:13,399 --> 00:40:17,315
I thought it might've been better
if I'd let him slip away.
702
00:40:19,424 --> 00:40:22,285
Then he wouldn't have to
deal with all he's got to come.
703
00:40:22,286 --> 00:40:24,670
What kind of monster
does that make me?
704
00:40:24,952 --> 00:40:29,346
It doesn't make you a monster
in any way, shape or form.
705
00:40:30,486 --> 00:40:32,508
It makes you a mother, Betty.
706
00:40:32,790 --> 00:40:34,673
Because you want to protect him.
707
00:40:35,838 --> 00:40:40,705
When I had Keith, it was like
there was a party in the room.
708
00:40:41,981 --> 00:40:47,572
Me mum was still alive,
and she was there, me Auntie Rita,
709
00:40:47,597 --> 00:40:49,421
and the nun what delivered him.
710
00:40:50,815 --> 00:40:54,134
I had a hard time getting
his head out but, when I did,
711
00:40:54,159 --> 00:40:58,119
and when he cried,
I got a round of applause.
712
00:41:00,411 --> 00:41:04,970
I'd never had a round of applause
in me whole life!
713
00:41:05,095 --> 00:41:08,899
Even me husband clapped -
he was outside on the landing.
714
00:41:12,795 --> 00:41:14,394
But no-one's clapping now.
715
00:41:19,891 --> 00:41:22,127
Kirk'd be better off
with someone else.
716
00:41:24,279 --> 00:41:26,574
Someone who can
look after him properly.
717
00:41:32,645 --> 00:41:35,244
Please, I think my baby's dying!
718
00:41:35,269 --> 00:41:37,829
All right, you're here now.
719
00:41:37,854 --> 00:41:39,414
I'll fetch the doctor.
720
00:41:47,970 --> 00:41:49,569
It's measles, isn't it?
721
00:41:49,851 --> 00:41:51,545
She's caught it,
and now it's too late.
722
00:41:51,546 --> 00:41:53,745
It is a rash, but it's not measles.
723
00:41:53,746 --> 00:41:57,423
It's something called roseola
infantum, or sixth disease.
724
00:41:57,448 --> 00:41:59,666
Is that worse? Is it worse?
725
00:41:59,691 --> 00:42:01,192
- Is she going to die?
- No.
726
00:42:01,193 --> 00:42:03,048
It's just a mild virus.
727
00:42:03,164 --> 00:42:05,597
It's very common,
not serious at all.
728
00:42:05,632 --> 00:42:09,801
It will pass in a day or two, and
Dawn will be perfectly all right.
729
00:42:09,826 --> 00:42:12,513
You can't know that.
You can't be sure.
730
00:42:12,538 --> 00:42:15,018
I am absolutely sure.
731
00:42:18,537 --> 00:42:22,361
It must've been unbearably painful
to lose your little boy, Hazel.
732
00:42:26,258 --> 00:42:30,881
I don't tell people about that.
I don't talk about it.
733
00:42:30,906 --> 00:42:33,105
It's in your medical notes.
734
00:42:33,130 --> 00:42:34,691
And so it should be.
735
00:42:35,718 --> 00:42:40,238
A loss like that will make so many
things in your life so much harder.
736
00:42:41,664 --> 00:42:46,088
Including bringing up a lovely,
healthy baby, like Dawn.
737
00:42:46,264 --> 00:42:48,063
He was healthy, too.
738
00:42:48,088 --> 00:42:51,397
They said that. And he died.
739
00:42:52,797 --> 00:42:56,150
I wish I could give you a reason
why that happened, Hazel.
740
00:42:56,373 --> 00:43:00,172
But I can't now any more than
the doctors could then.
741
00:43:00,197 --> 00:43:04,197
I can only tell you that
you are a wonderful mother...
742
00:43:05,786 --> 00:43:08,266
...and I have every confidence
in you.
743
00:43:09,778 --> 00:43:10,818
Do you?
744
00:43:12,144 --> 00:43:13,503
Yes.
745
00:43:13,528 --> 00:43:15,008
I do.
746
00:43:16,942 --> 00:43:20,178
And one day, you will have
confidence in yourself again.
747
00:43:21,798 --> 00:43:23,438
Because you deserve to.
748
00:43:26,214 --> 00:43:28,773
I need to get her home, in the warm.
749
00:43:28,798 --> 00:43:30,328
There's a bus in a minute.
750
00:43:30,629 --> 00:43:32,230
You're not getting the bus.
751
00:43:32,542 --> 00:43:35,781
You have a long list
for this evening's rounds, Doctor.
752
00:43:35,806 --> 00:43:39,218
I have no objection to
driving Mrs Becker to her residence.
753
00:43:43,539 --> 00:43:44,938
Betty was very clear.
754
00:43:44,963 --> 00:43:47,910
She told me to contact
the adoption agency straight away.
755
00:43:47,911 --> 00:43:50,147
Are you certain
this is what she wants?
756
00:43:52,460 --> 00:43:54,020
I don't know.
757
00:43:55,632 --> 00:43:59,431
I mean, it's not as if
she's been coping since the birth.
758
00:43:59,596 --> 00:44:01,785
And it's taken its toll
on the whole family.
759
00:44:01,786 --> 00:44:04,745
Her eldest son's got himself
in trouble with the police,
760
00:44:04,746 --> 00:44:10,018
and now, with the baby ill,
she is really struggling.
761
00:44:10,799 --> 00:44:14,388
If it's a question of practical
support, that can be provided.
762
00:44:14,993 --> 00:44:19,072
Perhaps if Betty could be persuaded
to send the older children
763
00:44:19,097 --> 00:44:20,694
to school more regularly...
764
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:22,147
It's more than that.
765
00:44:22,702 --> 00:44:25,565
She keeps saying it's not like
it was with the others.
766
00:44:25,566 --> 00:44:29,629
She doesn't seem to feel the urge
to cuddle him or show affection.
767
00:44:30,087 --> 00:44:33,010
I'm sure she's in
a very dark place at the moment.
768
00:44:34,266 --> 00:44:36,345
But a few hours of peace and quiet
769
00:44:36,346 --> 00:44:40,025
and a chance to get on top of
things, it should start to feel
770
00:44:40,026 --> 00:44:41,986
a great deal more manageable.
771
00:44:43,737 --> 00:44:47,126
I won't pretend there's
an easy solution, Nurse Dyer.
772
00:44:47,666 --> 00:44:51,586
But we need to help Betty
to start helping herself.
773
00:44:57,723 --> 00:44:59,312
Hazel, where have you been?
774
00:45:01,866 --> 00:45:04,185
Your wife had a bit of a scare,
Mr Becker,
775
00:45:04,186 --> 00:45:06,207
but there's nothing to worry about.
776
00:45:06,208 --> 00:45:08,150
- Hazel?
- I need to put her down.
777
00:45:16,634 --> 00:45:17,986
There we go.
778
00:45:35,267 --> 00:45:38,480
I know you've been through
a terrible time, my dear,
779
00:45:38,928 --> 00:45:40,542
losing a child.
780
00:45:41,498 --> 00:45:43,891
But you are stronger
than you realise.
781
00:45:45,321 --> 00:45:48,636
It's like an actual pain...
782
00:45:50,066 --> 00:45:52,586
...here, in my chest.
783
00:45:54,066 --> 00:45:55,426
And it never goes away.
784
00:45:56,693 --> 00:45:58,316
And I don't want it to go
785
00:46:00,248 --> 00:46:04,786
because that would mean
I was forgetting him.
786
00:46:21,085 --> 00:46:22,210
Is she all right?
787
00:46:22,235 --> 00:46:24,000
She seems a great deal calmer.
788
00:46:25,130 --> 00:46:26,953
Dr Turner did suggest
a mild sedative.
789
00:46:26,954 --> 00:46:29,923
No, she won't take it -
not after last time.
790
00:46:30,497 --> 00:46:34,321
The, er, the doctor in Cyprus
put her on something when Stephen...
791
00:46:35,813 --> 00:46:38,893
...when, erm, when our son died.
792
00:46:40,363 --> 00:46:43,912
The state she was in, she couldn't
even make it to the funeral.
793
00:46:43,913 --> 00:46:45,647
That's probably for the best.
794
00:46:46,346 --> 00:46:50,199
God knows, that was the hardest
thing I ever had to do.
795
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:53,998
Standing there in the baking heat...
796
00:46:55,586 --> 00:46:58,469
...watching that little coffin
go into the ground.
797
00:46:59,614 --> 00:47:02,147
We all need the chance
to say goodbye.
798
00:47:03,466 --> 00:47:04,597
I suppose we do.
799
00:47:10,529 --> 00:47:12,533
Thought I'd help you get
the kids off to school.
800
00:47:12,534 --> 00:47:13,731
If you want.
801
00:47:13,756 --> 00:47:15,498
Right, you lot,
where are your schoolbags?
802
00:47:15,499 --> 00:47:17,339
Not so fast!
803
00:47:20,468 --> 00:47:22,811
With your dad away,
you're the man of the house.
804
00:47:22,812 --> 00:47:24,112
So it's time you stepped up.
805
00:47:24,113 --> 00:47:27,096
From now on, I'm putting you
on Quartermaster's duty.
806
00:47:27,097 --> 00:47:28,255
You what?
807
00:47:29,006 --> 00:47:31,429
One tin of powdered milk on the go,
another in the cupboard.
808
00:47:31,430 --> 00:47:33,893
Soon as one runs out, you go to
the chemist and you replace it.
809
00:47:33,894 --> 00:47:34,934
Got it?
810
00:47:36,345 --> 00:47:37,545
Good.
811
00:48:12,078 --> 00:48:14,198
I need to talk about him, Hazel.
812
00:48:17,167 --> 00:48:21,734
If we don't, I'm scared about
what's going to happen to us.
813
00:48:24,066 --> 00:48:26,333
What it might end up doing to Dawn.
814
00:48:30,744 --> 00:48:34,333
Maybe I shouldn't have listened
to that doctor.
815
00:48:36,506 --> 00:48:41,094
Maybe if we'd have gone to
the funeral together...
816
00:48:41,119 --> 00:48:42,399
It wasn't your fault.
817
00:48:47,746 --> 00:48:50,158
You should've had a chance
to say goodbye.
818
00:49:03,606 --> 00:49:06,526
Right, off you pop.
Good boys. Come on.
819
00:49:08,386 --> 00:49:11,706
And you... see you later!
820
00:49:23,226 --> 00:49:25,306
HE LAUGHS Baby milk?
821
00:49:30,529 --> 00:49:33,468
What are you doing under there?
You hiding?
822
00:50:32,906 --> 00:50:34,385
Ignore 'em.
823
00:50:34,386 --> 00:50:37,545
Have a good look, why don't you?
That's my brother, all right?
824
00:50:37,546 --> 00:50:40,605
You got something to say about him,
you say it to me!
825
00:50:42,727 --> 00:50:44,911
Honestly! What are you like?
826
00:50:51,353 --> 00:50:52,392
3oz.
827
00:50:52,493 --> 00:50:55,412
No! Really?
828
00:50:55,437 --> 00:50:58,596
Well done, Betty.
You're doing brilliantly.
829
00:50:58,621 --> 00:51:00,739
I'd say your mummy's
earned a cuddle!
830
00:51:03,306 --> 00:51:05,105
And you're sure his chest is better?
831
00:51:05,106 --> 00:51:06,145
Temperature's normal.
832
00:51:06,146 --> 00:51:08,793
- He's a thriving, healthy little chap.
- Good.
833
00:51:08,794 --> 00:51:11,790
Cos now we've got to get him
through the operation.
834
00:51:11,815 --> 00:51:15,209
We heard back from Mrs Lightley
at the adoption agency.
835
00:51:15,234 --> 00:51:17,352
She said she could drop by tomorrow.
836
00:51:18,364 --> 00:51:19,717
Tell her not to bother.
837
00:51:44,742 --> 00:51:48,947
I understand from your husband that
your little boy is buried abroad.
838
00:51:50,414 --> 00:51:52,293
Yes, he is.
839
00:51:52,326 --> 00:51:55,405
Well, I can't imagine that
that is entirely helpful.
840
00:51:55,515 --> 00:51:56,535
No.
841
00:51:57,098 --> 00:51:59,137
I'm not from a large family.
842
00:51:59,162 --> 00:52:01,601
I have just the one uncle in Canada.
843
00:52:01,686 --> 00:52:04,109
And since my parents met
their untimely end,
844
00:52:04,110 --> 00:52:06,869
in the course
of an air raid in 1941,
845
00:52:06,894 --> 00:52:09,452
he has been unable
to visit their grave.
846
00:52:11,144 --> 00:52:14,504
Winnipeg being quite some distance
from East Finchley.
847
00:52:17,257 --> 00:52:20,618
My uncle planted a rose bush
in their memory.
848
00:52:21,586 --> 00:52:24,234
He sends me photographs of it
once in a while.
849
00:52:26,193 --> 00:52:29,033
And it brings us both comfort.
850
00:52:31,239 --> 00:52:34,357
I venture to hope that this
might do the same for you.
851
00:52:38,106 --> 00:52:41,906
That's most kind. It really is.
852
00:52:49,859 --> 00:52:51,339
Thank you.
853
00:52:55,936 --> 00:52:59,495
Donny! When did you get home?
854
00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:02,039
I came off the ship
about an hour ago.
855
00:53:02,421 --> 00:53:03,461
Can I see him?
856
00:53:04,762 --> 00:53:05,802
Come here, then.
857
00:53:22,626 --> 00:53:25,986
Look at him! He's gorgeous!
858
00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:43,810
- Now, there's a cheering sight.
- Isn't it?
859
00:53:43,946 --> 00:53:47,189
Angela asked me today if she could
tell people May was her sister.
860
00:53:47,190 --> 00:53:48,219
Did she?
861
00:53:48,244 --> 00:53:51,009
They're really becoming very close.
It's lovely.
862
00:53:51,346 --> 00:53:56,110
I was thinking that some people foster
children for years, don't they?
863
00:53:57,277 --> 00:53:58,317
It does happen.
864
00:53:59,910 --> 00:54:01,993
Right, come on, then!
We don't want to be late.
865
00:54:01,994 --> 00:54:03,133
In you pop.
866
00:54:04,567 --> 00:54:07,598
Come on, Reggie! Spit spot!
It's nearly half past.
867
00:54:09,231 --> 00:54:10,271
Will we do?
868
00:54:10,982 --> 00:54:13,662
Just look at my handsome boys!
869
00:54:15,952 --> 00:54:17,272
Madam Councillor?
870
00:54:28,964 --> 00:54:33,003
On behalf of the Tower Hamlets
London Borough Council,
871
00:54:33,176 --> 00:54:35,959
it gives me the greatest of
pleasure to declare this
872
00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:40,360
Poplar Whitsun Bank Holiday
Play Beach open for business!
873
00:54:43,946 --> 00:54:45,746
I feel like the Queen!
874
00:54:49,546 --> 00:54:50,786
In you go! In you go!
875
00:55:23,906 --> 00:55:26,065
Tempted to have a paddle, Sister?
876
00:55:26,066 --> 00:55:27,537
Just you try and stop me!
877
00:55:28,986 --> 00:55:30,906
- What's it like?
- Ooh!
878
00:55:43,031 --> 00:55:45,190
Three cheers for Akela! Hip hip...
879
00:55:45,215 --> 00:55:46,694
Hooray!
880
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:48,833
- Hip hip...
- Hooray!
881
00:55:48,858 --> 00:55:50,657
- Hip hip...
- Hooray!
882
00:55:57,626 --> 00:55:58,905
That ice cream's melting.
883
00:55:58,906 --> 00:55:59,946
Boo!
884
00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:03,639
We can decide to be happy,
885
00:56:03,664 --> 00:56:05,703
make much out of little,
886
00:56:05,728 --> 00:56:08,768
embrace the warmth of
our ordinary days.
887
00:56:10,316 --> 00:56:14,331
Life unfolds as a mystery.
888
00:56:15,114 --> 00:56:18,463
An enterprise whose outcome
cannot be foretold.
889
00:56:19,488 --> 00:56:22,207
We do not get what we expect.
890
00:56:22,232 --> 00:56:26,424
We stumble on cracks,
are faced with imperfection.
891
00:56:26,815 --> 00:56:29,095
Bonds are tested and tightened.
892
00:56:30,810 --> 00:56:35,181
And our landscapes shift
in sunshine and in shade.
893
00:56:36,184 --> 00:56:37,665
There is light.
894
00:56:38,133 --> 00:56:39,732
There is.
895
00:56:39,896 --> 00:56:40,936
Look for it.
896
00:56:42,051 --> 00:56:47,010
Look for it shining over
your shoulder, on the past.
897
00:56:47,191 --> 00:56:50,470
It was light where you went once.
898
00:56:50,495 --> 00:56:53,070
It is light where you are now.
899
00:56:54,725 --> 00:56:57,645
It will be light
where you will go again.
900
00:57:08,947 --> 00:57:11,906
Gentle, rhythmic circles.
901
00:57:11,931 --> 00:57:13,394
Ooh, I've come over a bit funny.
902
00:57:13,395 --> 00:57:15,618
Where are you off to
in your next-best two-piece suit?
903
00:57:15,619 --> 00:57:17,421
An exhibition of photography.
904
00:57:17,446 --> 00:57:20,526
What are horizons for
if not to be expanded?
905
00:57:22,786 --> 00:57:25,625
Are you asking to arrange
a termination of your pregnancy?
906
00:57:25,626 --> 00:57:27,452
If that's the polite way
of putting it.
907
00:57:27,453 --> 00:57:28,493
Faster!
