01:00How did you...? Get out.
01:04Get out!
01:06Out!
01:13HE WHIMPERS
01:31Come on.
01:55Don't let the dog in.
01:57Thank you.
02:01Sorry, I cannot tolerate imbeciles.
02:03Elaine, when we agreed that you'd start at 8.30,
02:05you did understand I'm end A.M.?
02:07Buying biscuits in the supermarket, yeah?
02:10And this bimbo won't let me through on six items or less.
02:13SHE SCOFFS
02:15All baps up to here and then stick on there, as she was.
02:18She goes, wait for it.
02:21Sorry, six items or less.
02:23And you had...?
02:2520, but all the same, do you see?
02:28Put the receipt in petty cash.
02:30Hang on, all these biscuits are for the surgery.
02:32Patient!
02:34Elaine, are you going to let them in?
02:36I'm busy. Elaine, just do it!
02:52Mrs Walker.
02:54Marianne, please.
02:56Am I your first official patient?
02:58Indeed you are, yes.
03:00Collect 1,000 loyalty points, you get a free coffin.
03:05If old Dr Sim could see this, he'd be thrilled.
03:08Thank you.
03:10Sit down, please.
03:12What can we do for you?
03:14I keep getting headaches.
03:16On and off.
03:18How long has that been going on for?
03:20I suppose all my life.
03:22And now they're worse, more intense?
03:25No, not specially.
03:27More frequent, then?
03:29No, not really.
03:32So today the problem is...?
03:34I just thought you should know.
03:36Consider me informed.
03:38You haven't thought of, um,
03:40redecorating when you were doing all this?
03:43Mrs Walker, do you have a medical problem?
03:46Indigestion.
03:48But that's much better, since I discovered aloe vera.
03:52That was one of your Aunt Joan's tips, as a point of fact.
03:55Good.
03:56Have you tried aloe vera?
03:58I do have other patients to see.
04:00Do you suffer from wind?
04:02Mrs Walker, I'm only too happy to see you
04:04when you actually have something wrong with you.
04:06Are you saying...?
04:08But I haven't even had a cup of tea.
04:10Tea?
04:11Yes.
04:12Try a cafe.
04:13Well, I must say...
04:14I'll make a note of it.
04:16I haven't been here two minutes.
04:23No!
04:27Dad, I don't want to.
04:29Are you deaf?
04:31I'm not doing it.
04:33Right.
04:35Elaine.
04:36I'm next.
04:37Yes, I'll be with you in a minute.
04:39Bring a drop more milk in.
04:41Elaine.
04:42No!
04:43Dad, I'm not going to carry her skirts down the aisle.
04:46She's a grown woman, innit?
04:48We've had some repeat prescriptions.
04:50She's your fiancée, you sort her out.
04:52No, I want to see the patients
04:54before I sign any repeat prescriptions.
04:56Elaine.
04:57You do check prescriptions before printing them, don't you?
05:00Yes.
05:01Right.
05:02Well, we seem to have a woman with erectile dysfunction here.
05:05Look, I can't be expected to work your system.
05:07Oh, that'll be the system whereby we don't kill the patients
05:10by prescribing the wrong medication, would it?
05:12It's your job.
05:13No.
05:14It is your job to check before you sign.
05:17It's all right.
05:18Yeah?
05:20It's the wife.
05:22Well, bring her in. I'll have a look at her.
05:24I can't do that.
05:25Never liked doctors.
05:27Not her cup of tea.
05:29Tea being the operative word.
05:31What are her symptoms?
05:33Oh, you name it.
05:36Blood pressure, thyroid.
05:39Well, then I do need to see her.
05:41Bones.
05:42Wrinkled as twigs.
05:43Osteoporosis.
05:44Well, if she can't make it into the surgery,
05:46then I can arrange for a home visit.
05:48Well, it's a bit late now.
05:50She's been dead now on 12 months.
05:55How are you coping on your own, Andy?
05:57Eddie, I'm not on me own.
06:00I talk to her every day.
06:02Told her I was coming to see the new surgery.
06:05Now I can tell her all about it.
06:10Is there anything I can do for you?
06:12Is there anything I can do for you?
06:17Fresh cup of tea?
06:19You'll be looking for a partner.
06:21No, I'll be wanting a patient.
06:23I've made many a match in Portwen.
06:25So far, I've had four weddings.
06:28No funerals.
06:31And quite a lot of babies.
06:33Mrs Black, do you have any medical reason whatsoever to be...
06:36Are you a leg or a breast man?
06:39Because if it's the breast you're after...
06:41and she's a Scotch pancake,
06:43there's plenty could be done.
06:46Chicken fillets?
07:00Right, attention, everyone.
07:04Listen up!
07:07If there's anyone who hasn't come to gawp,
07:10drink tea or otherwise waste my time,
07:12please put your hand up.
07:18Anyone at all got a genuine medical problem?
07:28Thank you. Goodbye.
07:32Put your teacups down and leave.
07:35You all right, Dory?
07:37You all right, Molly?
07:39Do you want to jam your dodger for the way?
07:41I'm so sorry, everyone.
07:43I don't... I don't...
07:45You won't last five minutes.
07:47You know that, don't you?
07:51Wait a minute.
07:55Do you have a problem with your throat?
08:00You think if you're professional, they'll appreciate you.
08:03They won't.
08:05Can you breathe in and hold your breath, please?
08:10And again.
08:13How long have you been hoarse?
08:1525 years.
08:17Shouting at ungrateful pupils.
08:19Open.
08:25What's with the full M.O.T.?
08:27Just give me something for the throat and I'll be on my way.
08:29Why don't we let the doctor do his work, Mr Fenn?
08:31Oui. Oh, I do love the medical profession.
08:34A grabber all its own.
08:37You have a lump in your neck.
08:39I did since I was a boy.
08:41I don't think so.
08:43I'm going to refer you.
08:45There'll be a biopsy and we'll take it from there.
08:47A referral? Great.
08:49Otherwise known as covering the arse.
08:52No, otherwise known as providing specialist treatment.
08:55Nobody makes it their business to know anything these days,
08:58have you noticed? It's always passing the buck.
09:01In cases like this, it's quite appropriate to make further investigations
09:04before giving a diagnosis.
09:06So you're not giving me anything for my throat?
09:09No, I'm not giving you anything for the chip on your shoulder either, I'm afraid.
09:13Great.
09:15Now who's having their time wasted?
09:17You can stuff your referral.
09:27What's that? Message.
09:29Roy or Stephen?
09:31Boy of seven.
09:34Dr Simp could read my writing.
09:38Stomach pain?
09:40Temperature 104, that could be appendicitis.
09:42What's that name?
09:44Er...
09:48Robson, Johnson...
09:50Look, the mum was hysterical.
09:52Like no kid's ever had bellyache and temperature.
09:55A child could die from appendicitis.
09:57I didn't worry about the name.
09:59I didn't worry about the name cos I thought you called the number in it.
10:03Number not recognised.
10:06No, that can't be.
10:08So the message is there's a sick child somewhere,
10:10but you didn't get the telephone number, let alone the boy's name.
10:13I suppose we could always get the name from the obituary, couldn't we?
10:17Roy, well, maybe...
10:19Look, I...
10:21No, you look, Elaine, for a new job.
10:23What? Just because I...
10:25Because you are the most incompetent person
10:27it has ever been my misfortune to encounter,
10:29and that incompetence could very well end up costing someone their life.
10:32You're fired.
10:43Hello. You must be Doc Martin.
10:45I'm Bruce, Elaine's dad, just come to say hello.
10:48Hello.
10:50We know it's late notice, but...
10:52Carmen and I want to invite you to our wedding.
10:55On Saturday?
10:57Right. Whatever.
10:59That's a thank you.
11:01For looking after my daughter?
11:04Is she in? Not for much longer, I just fired her.
11:07Why? I'm sorry, I've got a medical emergency.
11:17Please, love. I don't need this now, innit?
11:20Elaine.
11:26Thank you.
11:40Seven years old, the surname's Johnson or Robson or...
11:43No, nobody's off in my class, but we can ask Colin.
11:46Can you lot finish what's on the board, please?
11:49So is this another patient that you've chased away from your surgery?
11:52Of course. Oh, your friend Roger Fern.
11:55God, that was quick.
11:57Roger? I haven't seen him in ages.
11:59Roger was forced to take early retirement.
12:02He thinks I took his job.
12:04Well, I did take his job.
12:06So, no, we're not exactly friends, wasn't him.
12:09So it must have been one of the 30 other patients
12:11that you unceremoniously dispatched.
12:13For the record, I did not dispatch any patients,
12:15I dispatched people who seem to think that surgery's another word for cafe.
12:18Being the doctor here is more than just handing out pills.
12:21It's biscuits as well.
12:23You always have a line, don't you?
12:25It's like every conversation's a competition and you have to win it.
12:28It's so... male.
12:30Thank you. Can you help me find this child or not?
12:33Bobby Richards. Bobby was sick yesterday in the playground.
12:36This is Miss Glass. I'm from the school, Mrs Richards.
12:39I'm just checking on Bobby.
12:41Oh, dear. I'm sure the doctor will. He's...
12:43Mrs Richards? It's Dr Ellingham here.
12:46Yep. Is his temperature still elevated?
12:49Right, I'm on my way. What's the address?
12:53Yep.
12:55Yep. OK.
12:57I'll be with you in 15 minutes. Half an hour.
12:5930 minutes. Bye.
13:01Do you know where the...?
13:03That.
13:05Thanks.
13:20Dr Ellingham?
13:22Thank you for coming. I've never seen him like this before.
13:25If it's appendicitis, then what am I going to do?
13:27I can't have him in the hospital.
13:29Let's have a look at him, shall we?
13:31His room's just up there.
13:35Hello, er, Bobby.
13:37I'm Dr Ellingham. How are you feeling?
13:39He can't go to the hospital. I can't stay overnight with him.
13:42Would you be so kind as to make me a cup of tea?
13:45I've got five kids.
13:47Milk, no sugar, please.
13:49Yes, Doctor.
13:51Well, now, Bobby,
13:53you've got everybody in a bit of a pickle, haven't you?
13:57Let's have a look at you.
13:59Oh, yes, this, er...
14:01this leg will have to come off.
14:04But don't worry, modern anaesthetic, she won't feel a thing.
14:09Just kidding.
14:11Don't look so upset.
14:18Open.
14:20Under your tongue. Under it. Lift it. That's it.
14:23That'll do.
14:28Thank you.
14:30What is it? Is it bad?
14:32It's good news. There's no need for the hospital. It's not appendicitis.
14:35Thank God. So what's he got?
14:37Tonsillitis.
14:39Sore throat? Yes, a bad sore throat.
14:41No, he's been throwing up. I'm aware of that.
14:43He's got stomach pain.
14:45Tonsillitis.
14:47The stomach is soft, the tonsils are the colour of cardboard.
14:50Oh, Doctor, I can't tell you.
14:52I'll just write you a prescription.
14:54I might even have the right antibiotic for you in here somewhere,
14:57as I think I have.
15:02You sacked Elaine Denham?
15:04For no good reason? Tosser.
15:06Shouldn't you be giggling outside my house?
15:09They say Elaine's a good girl.
15:11Yeah, I'm sure they do.
15:13Well, maybe up in London you can mess people around like that.
15:16Yes, as often as we can. Thank you.
15:23Right, well, I want you to give Bobby one of these three times a day with water.
15:27And if you're still worried in 24 hours, give me a call.
15:38Excuse me. Yes?
15:40I'll have a glass of mineral water and a pasta, please.
15:42It's finished.
15:44What's the soup?
15:46Finished.
15:49I'll have a chilli con carne, then.
15:53I guess you're a friend of Elaine's, aren't you? Yes.
15:56All right. OK.
16:13KNOCK AT DOOR
16:34Look, um...
16:36Pamela, we both know what's going on here,
16:39but if you let me have some petrol, I won't tell anyone.
16:42Sorry?
16:44I get it, OK.
16:46But no-one's looking.
16:48Are you deaf? Number three, please.
16:50£25.50, please.
16:52The list.
16:54OK, let me paint you a little picture.
16:57It's snowing outside.
16:59You're about to give birth to your fifth child in three years.
17:03Your waters break, you're frightened,
17:06and you're lonely because your boyfriend's rotting in Borstal.
17:09You call good old Dr Ellingham,
17:11the only man in 100 miles who can help you,
17:13and I say, I'm sorry, I don't do births.
17:16You all right, mate? No, I bloody well am not.
17:19Ah, you must be Dr Martin.
17:21It's empty.
17:23Then what's he just put in his car? Horse urine?
17:25And no, I'm sorry, you can't have this Mars bar,
17:27not unless you give Elaine her job back,
17:29because God forbid you should upset the village of the damned.
17:32We don't have any petrol.
17:34Then what's he just put in his tank?
17:37Diesel.
17:42Right.
17:57What is it with you people?!
17:59You drive here with your eyes closed?!
18:01Mr Fenn.
18:03I might have known.
18:05Oh, great! Look at this!
18:07I was on my way to see you, actually.
18:09Oh, you can forget it.
18:11I got myself some cough medicine from the chemist.
18:13You didn't want to be referred, so I thought I'd give you my opinion.
18:16I didn't want your opinion either.
18:18I wanted some medicine, which I have now got.
18:20So why don't you just go and drive into somebody else?!
18:22Mr Fenn!
18:24There is a high probability you have a cancer of the larynx.
18:27You'll need surgery and you may well lose your voice,
18:29which has a certain appeal.
18:31You may not care about this, but unfortunately I'm paid to.
18:37I'll arrange for a referral.
18:52Richard Edgerton, E&T.
18:54Yeah, it's Martin Ellingham here.
18:56I've got a patient who needs an urgent laryngoscopy.
19:00Yes, that is my opinion.
19:02Stop it! Stop it!
19:06Hmm?
19:08Well, I'd say it was a carcinoma of the larynx.
19:12Because I'm a doctor, he's a smoker with a lump in his neck.
19:15Would you like the tumour to write to you?
19:18Will you get out of that bin?!
19:24Right, you. Dog, dog. Dog, dog, dog, dog. Here.
19:29Fetch!
19:35Cornwall's lovely, isn't it?
19:38All this sea breeze makes you feel so alive.
19:42I'm Carmen.
19:44Doc, I understand about Elaine.
19:48Hard to be her employer, I should imagine.
19:50It wasn't a decision I took lightly.
19:52Pretty hard to be her father, too.
19:54Like father, like daughter.
19:56All right, Lady Love, pull up. Yes, it is.
19:58She is bloody minded. There's no point pretending otherwise.
20:01No.
20:03Well, she's got, um, personality.
20:06Oh, yeah. By the bucketful.
20:08Oh, she'll be at that church. She'll come round.
20:11Elaine and Carmen just don't get on.
20:13He's exaggerating. She's just not used to me yet.
20:16Well, that's a shame.
20:18Um...
20:20I've got to look for the dog.
20:22Well, we'll come with you.
20:26Elaine's mum died young. Really?
20:28Yeah, and, uh, Elaine, well, she doted on her mum.
20:31Oh, you... Lady Love's not ate my lipstick.
20:35Oh, that's the fifth one this week.
20:37Go on, sneak your feet.
20:39Elaine just can't handle me being with anyone else.
20:42Are you married? No.
20:44Why not?
20:46See, I thought, what is the point?
20:48You know, a life alone.
20:50What is it for?
20:52I mean, obviously not you. You do something positive.
20:55It must mean the rest of us.
20:57You contribute, and that must feel, you know, saving lives.
21:01What is your dog doing?
21:03Ah, um, your dog. He has been done, hasn't he?
21:06It's not my dog.
21:08Oh.
21:22Hello. Fancy a drink?
21:24No, thanks. Don't want to get tar and feathers on my jacket.
21:27The wrath of Elaine. Yeah.
21:31Come back to mine. I've got a good single malt on the go.
21:34No, thanks.
21:38Night, Doc.
21:55Sh-sh-sh-sh!
22:02Hello, Mrs Winter?
22:04Just a guess.
22:07Right.
22:10Thank you for letting me know.
22:12Goodbye.
22:25HE PANTS
22:31PHONE RINGS
22:45Ellingham?
22:47Ah, Dr Ellingham. It's Richard Edgerton here at ENT.
22:50Yep.
22:52Uh-huh.
23:22KNOCK AT DOOR
23:24Hello?
23:32Roger?
23:48Don't stop on my account.
23:51Are you lost or looking for children to frighten?
23:55You used to be in a band.
23:57Yes, I, uh... I gave it up for something more sensible.
24:00Something that would see me through to a nice, safe retirement.
24:04Well, that, uh...
24:06that sounded, um...
24:09Horse.
24:12What do you do when you're not working?
24:16I'm always working.
24:18And there was me thinking this was going to be a social call.
24:22Well, I went in for my biopsy.
24:24When do I get the results back?
24:32Oh.
24:35I can talk you through what happens next.
24:41I booked you in for surgery next Friday.
24:44The 13th, actually.
24:48Perfect.
24:58PHONE RINGS
25:06Got more in the van.
25:08Where do you want it? I didn't order this.
25:10Are you Ellingham? The person who ordered this no longer works here.
25:13You can take it away again, please. I can't do that.
25:16Yes, you can. You've got a van.
25:18I can't take it away until you accept delivery.
25:20What?
25:21You can't return something until you've accepted it, can you?
25:23I see.
25:24It's not rocket science.
25:26You accept delivery, then you get a returns number,
25:29then you arrange a time to have your package or packages picked up.
25:32Then I come back and collect them.
25:34You do? Yeah.
25:35Well, why don't you just take it now?
25:37Mind if I use your loo?
25:47Are you all right? That took a while.
25:50What? Poor urine flow.
25:52Any discomfort? You what?
25:54Have you had your prostate checked?
25:56What? It might be enlarged.
25:58I should have a look at it for you.
26:00What, up the...? Won't take a minute.
26:17Bobby?
26:19Feeling better?
26:21I don't like you.
26:23Well, that's all right, because, um, I like you.
26:26You were mean to Elaine.
26:28My sister say you're the W word,
26:31the T word,
26:33the P word
26:35and the Z word.
26:37What's a Z word?
26:39It's a word.
26:47Oi! Oi!
26:56Right, this is your new owner and this is your new home,
26:59which is a farm which dogs are supposed to enjoy,
27:02so bugger off and leave me alone.
27:04All I'm saying is that it isn't exactly politic
27:08to sack a perfectly good receptionist.
27:10Perfectly good?
27:12She made appointments before I'd even opened.
27:14She handed up prescriptions that were so inaccurate
27:16as to be potentially lethal.
27:18Surely you checked them.
27:19I had to go to the school to trace a child with suspected appendicitis
27:22because she couldn't be relied on to take down a phone number.
27:25It was pure luck that...
27:26That boy had a sore throat, Bobby Richards.
27:28Oh, come on, Marty.
27:29But Elaine wasn't to know that.
27:31So she made a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes.
27:33Yes, but she can't admit them.
27:35She's got this thing where you pick her up on something
27:37and she comes right back at you with a complaint.
27:39And when you make a mistake,
27:40you roll over and let them tickle your tum?
27:44Bark!
27:45Bark!
27:46Bark!
27:47Bark!
28:10Bark!
28:11Bark!
28:14Bark!
28:24Elaine.
28:26What's happened to you?
28:28It's tan.
28:29It's orange.
28:31I need my wages.
28:33Well, don't think you can charm me into taking you back.
28:37I don't want to come back.
28:39I'm going to Mallorca, innit?
28:41I don't know how much I owe you.
28:44How long are you going for?
28:46A month, two.
28:49You'll miss your father's wedding.
28:51Diddums.
28:53You got cash?
28:56I think it would mean a lot to him.
28:58So?
29:02Why do I have to make him feel good about his decision?
29:06I don't feel good about it.
29:10Don't know what he sees in me.
29:12Don't know what he sees in her.
29:16What is it with men and big babs?
29:19It's offensive.
29:23Elaine,
29:25were you very young when your mum died?
29:31I mean, I think, you know,
29:33people will understand how hard that must have been.
29:38And difficult for you to move on and see your father move on.
29:44Whoever the woman was.
29:49I suppose I could have been more understanding.
29:56Get paid for that in London, Jew.
30:01Look, I don't mind him having a woman,
30:03just not one with a bloody dog in her handbag.
30:08Hasta la vista.
30:24Oh, Louisa, have you seen Martin?
30:26No, sorry, on my way to see Roger Fenn in the hospital.
30:29He's having his main art today, so excuse me.
30:31Now, maybe that's where Martin is.
30:33Look, if you see him,
30:35can you tell him that his dog seems to have decided not to play spot on the farm?
30:39Actually, Joan, I gather Martin hasn't been by or near the hospital.
30:43Oh, yes, yes, I heard that he and Roger didn't hit it off.
30:47I'm not very impressed, to be honest.
30:49Well, Roger is a very difficult man, as you well know.
30:53He's got cancer. He needs some sort of care.
30:56It's not as if Martin's got any other patients to worry about.
30:59If you're annoyed with Martin, I suggest you take it up with him.
31:03He's your nephew.
31:05Weren't you on the committee that appointed him?
31:16Roger?
31:20Again?
31:23We don't speak in over a year, and now it's twice in two days.
31:26I must get cancer more often.
31:28I can't stay so long this time, Ivan.
31:30Of course. You have my job to get back to, don't you?
31:37I'll ask the nurse on the way out.
31:41Well...
31:43So...
31:46Everyone at school sends their love.
31:48Oh, really?
31:49Last time they sent their love, it was in an envelope with a P45.
31:55So...
31:57Did the surgeon say exactly what they were going to do today?
32:03I don't know.
32:05This guy makes Ellingham look like Flores Nightingale.
32:08So still no sign of Martin?
32:12Why does that bother you so much?
32:15Why would I want to see him, anyway?
32:17Because maybe he could tell you what was going on.
32:19Oh, I'll tell you what's going on.
32:21I've been pushed out of my job an inch before I qualified.
32:25An inch before I qualify for a pension.
32:27And minutes before I am about to lose my voice forever.
32:30I find myself having to chat with the woman who replaced me.
32:36Visiting time's over.
32:40Roger...
32:43I'm so sorry.
32:55I'm so sorry.
33:26ENT, please.
33:27Down the glass corridor, second floor.
33:29There are my keys. I'm parked at Mr Brownlow's spot.
33:32And you are...?
33:33Dr Martin Ellingham, Fort Wend.
33:35You're a GP?
33:36That's right, yes. And you're a receptionist.
33:39Excuse me. Come back here.
33:41You can't park in the staff car park.
33:44I've a patient to see.
33:46Is it me, or do you not understand plain English?
33:49It's you.
33:51Martin?
33:52Martin!
33:53Adrian.
33:54Adrian Pitts.
33:55There he is.
33:56The great Martin Ellingham, who, as you all know,
33:58abused myself and others at St Mary's.
34:00Buggered us senseless, but taught us a thing or two about medicine.
34:03So what brings you here, Chief? Knifing a bigwig?
34:06No, actually, I've given up surgery.
34:08You're kidding?
34:09I've got a patient to see.
34:11Yeah, of course.
34:12I've got a patient to see.
34:14I've got a patient to see.
34:16I've got a patient to see.
34:18I've got a patient to see.
34:19Yeah, of course.
34:21I'd heard he couldn't hack it.
34:23I'll tell you about that.
34:35Don't worry, it's just a nosebleed.
34:41Are you all right?
34:48I'm fine.
35:18I'm fine.
35:49Yeah, let me do that for you, Mr Ellingham.
35:52I read you on block carotids.
35:55Don't suck up.
36:02The surgeon been in yet?
36:04Yeah.
36:07And I thought you were a smug bastard.
36:11Good.
36:13I'm going to miss swearing.
36:15Good.
36:16I'm going to miss swearing.
36:18Not necessarily.
36:19If the squamous cells haven't spread, there's a good chance the voice can be saved.
36:22Yeah, yeah, he said that.
36:23Same choice of words, too.
36:25The voice.
36:26It's not the voice.
36:28Sorry.
36:30Your voice.
36:33Mind if I have a glass of water?
36:41Are you all right?
36:43You're a funny colour.
36:45I'm fine.
36:47I've got cancer, but you look worse.
36:54Whatever.
36:59I, um...
37:04..sometimes have a heightened emotional reaction to certain events.
37:08Which is medical speak for?
37:13Panic attacks.
37:15I sometimes have small panic attacks.
37:18What kind of panic attacks?
37:21Er, nausea, sweating, chest pain.
37:27What brings them on?
37:29Smells.
37:31Smell of cauterised flesh.
37:33And blood.
37:35Smell of that, sometimes just the sight of it.
37:39I used to have the Midas touch, you know.
37:41I couldn't look at a body on the operating table without fixing it, really.
37:45Then one day, in the middle of the most mundane procedure,
37:48another set of arteries laid out in front of me,
37:51it suddenly dawned on me, for the first time,
37:53that this was somebody's wife.
37:56Somebody's mother.
37:57And I couldn't do it.
37:59I couldn't go on. Like I was on a high wire,
38:01I made the mistake of looking down.
38:04I haven't operated since.
38:07So now I'm your GP.
38:12You probably want to keep that quiet.
38:15Yeah, I wouldn't want the village to fall out of love with me.
38:21Your secret's safe with me.
38:23Well, it's not like you're going to be able to tell anyone anyway, is it?
38:34Yeah. Have any family in?
38:37Grown-up daughter. Decided not to call her.
38:40She stopped needing me a long time ago.
38:44She has a TV set all of her own.
38:47How about you?
38:49No. Only child.
38:51Parents dead?
38:53No, retired. Portugal. Golf.
38:56Nice.
38:58Vile. We don't speak.
39:02You are a miserable bucker.
39:05Thank you.
39:07Thank you.
39:37Thank you.
39:47Hark!
39:51Glad you came.
39:53You heard from Elaine?
39:55Not even a postcard.
39:57How are you?
39:59Been sick twice.
40:01My heart's beating 300 times a minute.
40:03Perfectly normal, I understand.
40:05Yep.
40:07Louisa, you're looking straight through me.
40:20Have I done something to offend you?
40:22It's what you haven't done.
40:24Well, that narrows it down a bit.
40:26I can't believe we didn't visit Fenn in hospital.
40:29He didn't have a clue what was going on.
40:31What in God's name are you going on about?
40:35I don't know.
40:37I don't know.
40:39I don't know.
40:41I don't know.
40:43I don't know.
40:45I don't know.
40:47I don't know.
40:49I don't know.
40:51I don't know.
40:53I don't know.
40:55I don't know.
40:57I don't know.
40:59I don't know.
41:01I don't know.
41:03I don't know.
41:33Well, like I say, if you haven't got your health what have you got, eh?
41:37Nice to see you on your feet.
41:39All right, then, boy?
41:41All right, Fenn.
41:43How you doing?
41:45Fenn, good to see you.
41:47Don't you think it's a little bit late for the concerned routine?
41:51Pardon?
41:53When you have precisely one patient,
41:55I'd have thought you'd want to visit him in the hospital.
41:57I'm not so sure.
41:59When you have precisely one patient, I'd have thought you'd want to visit him in the hospital.
42:02Hang on!
42:03No, Roger, don't try to speak.
42:05He did come to see me.
42:08To press the hell out of me.
42:10That was mutual.
42:13Right.
42:14Well, you could have told me.
42:16I tried, but that woman shushed me.
42:20See you later.
42:22Can I, uh, come and talk to you about the kid?
42:25Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
42:26Rest out, boys.
42:29I'll see if I can squeeze you in.
42:34Thanks for coming, Dean.
42:35Thank you so much.
42:37Thank you very much.
42:39Elaine.
42:40Hi, Dad.
42:41Thanks for coming, sweetheart.
42:42It's really made my day.
42:44Give your dad a hug.
42:45Hey!
42:46Hey!
42:47Hey!
42:48Hey!
42:49Hey!
42:51Elaine.
42:54Elaine.
42:57Elaine.
42:59Thank you.
43:00Thank you.
43:01It's nice to know you.
43:02Oh.
43:03It's nice to meet you.
43:04Oh, thank you very much.
43:06To the White House, to the White House
43:10Walking along the hill
43:12To the White House, to the White House
43:16Walking along the hill
43:31Good wedding.
43:33You was right.
43:34Yeah, sometimes you have to swallow your pride and do the right thing.
43:41Yes.
43:42And I think the right thing would be for me to come back to the surgery.
43:49Right.
43:50Well, we need to establish a few ground rules first.
43:54Your attention to detail, use of the phone, that sort of thing.
43:58I agree.
44:00Do you?
44:02Well, you can have your job back, then.
44:05Yeah?
44:07Yeah.
44:08Everything all right?
44:10Good news, yes, Elaine's coming back to the surgery.
44:14Oh, that... That is marvellous.
44:18Whoa, whoa!
44:20Everyone!
44:22Everyone.
44:23Thank you.
44:25Small announcement, but I know you'll all be pleased.
44:30My daughter, Elaine, is returning to the Portwen surgery.
44:34CHEERING
44:36He's a jolly good fellow
44:38Oh, he's a jolly good fellow
44:41Oh, he's a jolly good fellow
44:44And so say all of us
44:47And so say all of us
44:49I'll see you Monday, 8.30, then.
44:51No, that's one of my ground rules.
44:53You have ground rules.
44:55Yeah, I've written them down.
44:58One, I'm not made to feel responsible for your mistakes.
45:02Two, I'm free to use the phone whenever.
45:04And three, I start at nine, not half eight.
45:08There are a few more, but you can read them later.
45:16LAUGHTER
45:27LAUGHTER
45:57CHEERING
