Original subtitles

Heartbeat, why do you miss when my baby kisses me?

Heartbeat, why does a love chip stay in my memory?

Why didn't you wake me up? You know I hate being late.

Well, you were dead to the world.

What time did you get in last night?

About three.

That baby took its time arriving.

And I'm due in Whitby this morning, too.

Well, maybe you'll have an easy time at the village surgery.

Fat chance with a bug that's going round at the moment.

Have you eaten all the toast?

It's there, dear.

Oh, yeah.

You wouldn't put that in the carton, would you?

Oh! What have you got in here, Kate?

Oh, patient's files.

Oh, you'll be glad to get rid of them. Yeah, delighted.

Just don't fancy getting a hernia. Oh, stop moaning. You'll be fine.

Don't carry in the box.

Maybe

you'll

have an easy surgery.

Where do you want them?

Leave them in the hall for the moment.

Morning, everybody.

I'm sorry I'm a bit late starting today.

Sit down, Claude.

So, what seems to be the problem?

I've got some sort of flu.

Every bone in my body aches. I think it's bringing on my rheumatism.

Uh -huh.

How dangerously are you living?

How do you mean?

I mean, if your rheumatism's playing up, it's more likely to be caused by

midnight ramble than the cold and damp than anything else.

Oh, yeah, that's very good.

You're spending too much time with the policeman. It's warping you.

Let's listen to your chest.

I'm going to take my coat off.

That would be a good idea, yes.

I hope you're going to warm that thing up.

He'll come back when he's hungry. You know how much that dog means to him.

We'll find it.

Jamie!

Mum, I'm just going to look for him.

Look, it's not my fault Sam's gone missing. You were the one who insisted

bringing him. We didn't want to come here in the first place. Oh, don't start

all that again.

I didn't exactly have much choice. And we didn't have any at all, and now we're

stuck here.

Jamie, you...

Morning, Tom.

We lost one of the beagles yesterday.

So if you see anything, I'd pick my eyes open.

What happened?

Oh, it's common enough if one goes off on a scent of its own.

But we usually find them next day.

Big meeting?

Good turnout.

Rotten sport.

Didn't catch a thing.

And the ground we covered should have been stuffed with air.

So where'd they go?

Either something frightened them off...

Or more likely, somebody's had them.

Poached? Exactly.

There aren't that many dogs in the village who can take down a hare.

And one of them's a lurcher.

You get my drift?

I'll toss you for who has first goal.

No, you won't. You're welcome to it.

Good!

See, when I get behind the wheel of that, there's going to be no stopping

We haven't been sent in solely to boost your love life.

Morning, Les. Mick. I see my new motor's arrived.

It's thatched for the lead, Mick.

And I spotted it first.

So keep your hands off it.

Oh, yeah.

He thinks he's James Bond and going to pull all the birds.

More like pussy galore.

Well, it's good of you to join us, Rowan.

I'm just going outside to test my new vehicle.

I may be away for some time.

Good morning, gentlemen.

Oh, morning, ma 'am.

I see the new car's arrived, Sergeant Blaketon. Yes, ma 'am. Do you know, I'm

surprised you haven't put somebody out on patrol yet.

Well, I was just about to, ma 'am. Good.

Because I need you to go over the custody records, please.

Ah. Well, er...

Certainly, Mum.

Would you like to go through to my office, Mum?

Thank you.

Bellamy, bring in the files.

And Ventress, you go outside and impress the ratepayers with our new vehicle.

And Rowan, just take that smirk off your face.

How are you feeling?

Well, I'm still getting these headaches, Dr Rowan. How often?

All day.

I'm on my own at the garage now, so I can't take much time off.

And the pills I gave you aren't helping at all?

Well, not that I've noticed.

When did you do that?

Oh, a couple of weeks back.

Stripping some rusty panels off a car.

Looks nasty. Did you put anything on it?

I kept it clean.

Jim, that should have been properly dressed.

Nah, things heal quicker in the fresh air.

It's a bit itchy, but... Been all right?

Are you up to date with your antitechnos?

Yeah. Oh, yeah.

Well, you've got to be in my line of work, haven't you?

That's fine.

I think I'll give you a boost to all this thing.

Oh, the other thing is, I've got a bit of a sore throat coming on.

Let's have a look.

It's a bit inflamed, all right.

It's probably the bug that's going round at the moment.

You're in the walls, aren't you?

The radio man's here, Doctor.

Are there many more patents?

They're thick to go.

There seemed to be an awful lot this morning.

I'm afraid you've had to see them all.

Dr Rowan hasn't turned up.

I see.

Well, you just have to ask him to wait.

She is beautiful, isn't she?

What are you waiting for, Alf?

This could be your chance to tie in a few heads.

Oh, Nick.

You wouldn't do us a favour, would you?

What's that?

Come with me.

Why?

Well, between you and me, it's been some time. Don't tell me you can't drive.

Of course I can.

It's just that it's been a year or two since I've been behind the wheel.

Well, come on, then.

Tarlow. And, er, pasty, please.

Pasty, please, Uncle George.

You feeling any better?

Oof. Worse, if anything.

Think I'm coming out with flu now.

Claude's got it in all. We haven't seen him in here this week.

What can I get you for?

Ah, a pint of bitter, please.

Hello, mate.

Oh, hello.

First, first, be worth shopping round here.

Are you just passing through?

Yes. We're caravanning.

Looking for a place to live at the same time.

Really?

Quick. Aye, I made it for meself.

Great to look after no money.

There you go, Jim.

It's a good 'un. Keep it, Jenny.

Thanks very much.

Now you look a bit peaky.

I'd feel a lot better if people didn't keep going on about it.

How about the hair of the dog?

Now, put it in gear and ease the clutch out gently.

Well, let's try again, shall we?

Oh, what's the matter with this car?

I think you're starting in third, Alan.

Oh.

It's moving.

Were you taking your foot off the brake?

No.

I'd change down again if I were you.

Oh.

You'll find one you like in a minute.

Oh, come on.

Try using your brake.

So are you from round here originally, then?

No, not really.

I've been in the army.

And we've lived all over.

But I've got a few friends up north, so it seems as good a place as any to make

a fresh start.

That's nice.

I wonder, could you give me some advice?

Yeah, sure.

You see, our dog's gone missing.

Day before yesterday, and what's the best place to put up a notice, offer a

reward, that sort of thing?

Yeah, well, write it out now, and I'll put it up on the wall for you. What sort

of dog is it? It's a golden retriever.

Thanks very much.

Family going frantic.

I'll get you a piece of paper.

Where are you going, Jim?

You haven't been to the party?

My throat's that sore, I can hardly swallow.

See you.

Ta -ra.

There's a lot of it about, you know.

Yeah.

Am I going to get round?

You want to come back a bit?

Whoa! Oh, is that enough?

Come on, Al, if you want to stop at Greengrass's place on the way back.

Oh, that's up that way, then.

Well, indicate, then.

That's not the indicator, Al.

Basically functions as a normal two -way radio between the base station...

And the portable unit. Now, you can either opt for the handheld version or

can have one fitted to your car.

What do you think, Kate?

It sounds ideal.

But how much does it cost?

£90 a set.

Can we buy one set and add more units later?

That's no problem.

£90.

If the midwife service has them, we should.

It's the police, Claude.

Open up.

Oi, come on. This is a raid.

Bring out your dead.

What are you talking about? What dead?

About a dozen hairs, from what I can gather.

What are you talking about? What have you been putting in this porridge?

It's a serious matter, Greengrass.

We may have to arrest Alfred again.

You what?

Look, I've not been well, I've not been out for a week, neither has he.

Well, that's not how it looks to Tom Gordon.

Oh, Tom Gordon wants his eyes tested.

If you take any notice of him, you want your heads looking at.

So you haven't been over Burley Moor lately, then?

Burley Moor?

How many times do you want to tell him I should be in bed, not galloping about

on Burley Moor?

Yeah, all right.

He looks like he's telling the truth for once.

Come along.

Go on, go and pet somebody else.

He just hit Greengrass's truck.

Oh, let's get out of here before he sees us.

What about going to tell Blaketon?

No, don't worry about it. Just stay out of his way.

I'll get Jim Swaby to talk this out on the quiet.

It's a good job they haven't fitted the radio yet.

What if he comes looking for us?

He won't. Now, come on.

Mind the sheep.

Hard and tough, them beggars.

Why don't they read the highway code?

I had a word with Greengrass.

What did he say?

Well, it's nothing to do with him.

You could be right at that.

I found my missing one dead, down by the wood.

Well, what would that be, a fox?

Might be.

I've never had it happen before.

But if it's fast enough and hard enough to kill a beagle, you should be able to

see off a few hares.

You do surprise me.

I've asked in the post office, I've asked in the shop, but I've also put up

notice in the local pub.

So you think we should just sit and wait?

All I want to do is to get up to Middlesbrough, find old Graham and see

give me a job.

But what about Jamie?

He'll get over it.

We had a good life in the army.

Alice, all that is in the past.

I mean, I didn't ask for any of this.

But since I've been given my marching orders, we might as well make the best

it. I mean, look at it from Jamie's point of view. I mean, it's much better

him to make a fresh start in a new school now, when he's 13 and in two

time. Quiet.

He's coming.

Any luck, darling?

He'll turn up.

Your father's going out for a look now.

He's put a notice up in the village.

I'll get my boots on.

I should never have listened to you about that ruddy dog.

Hello, love. It's finally arrived.

No, it's not mine. It's for general use in Ashfordly. What is it doing here,

then? Well, Alf's managed to prang it already, so I thought I'd ask Jim to

a look at it for me.

Kate, why are those turnips in the back of your car?

Don't ask.

Shut up!

Hiya, Jim.

Hello, mate.

Can you do us a favour?

Our new police car's had a bit of a bump. Can you sort it for me?

I'll have a look.

Are you all right?

I'm sorry, I just keep tensing up.

Here, let's get you out of there. Please.

You get us that mug of water?

Please. Yeah.

Kate, get through there.

What happened?

He had some sort of fit.

His whole body went gritty. I only saw him this morning.

It could be tetanus, but I don't understand how his inoculations are up

Hello, Jim. How are you feeling?

Terrible.

My throat's a sore as hell.

I'm so thirsty.

Could we have a glass of water, please?

Is there any stiffness in your neck?

Not in particular, Doctor.

It just comes in waves all over.

You don't feel quite relaxed.

Thanks.

Now, just sit this slowly, Jim.

Here, let me help.

It's all right.

It's all right.

I think we should isolate him.

What's happened?

I'm going to ask James Radcliffe for a second opinion. I don't think it can be

tetanus, even if it looks like it. So what do you think it is?

I've never seen it, but I'm wondering if it might be rabies.

Look, Kate, I hope you're wrong.

His muscles are relaxing completely between spasms. If it was tetanus,

they'd stay tense.

Yes.

What have you done so far?

I've sedated him to control the convulsions.

I've seen it a couple of times before, you know.

Is there any way of halting it?

Once it's reached the brain, no.

What about vaccines?

They can't work.

Once the symptoms show, it means it's established itself in the central

system. So what happens next?

With rabies, it's just a matter of time.

I'd better go and phone my sergeant.

Have you asked him about Ben Bitten?

No.

We'd better go and talk to him.

How's Jamie?

Upset.

Oh, well, we'll sort something out.

There is life after the army, you know.

Are you sure this friend of yours will be able to help?

Well, I can't guarantee it, but he... Well, he did say that I should contact

him, sir.

What about them?

I think we should leave him.

She'd never have listened to you two.

We can't.

Our life's gone wrong enough if it is. I don't want Jamie to hate us. I couldn't

bear it.

Okay.

I really do think we should go.

Tomorrow.

Sarge, it's me.

Nick Rowan.

Look, I'm at the hospital.

I think we've got a bit of a problem.

They must have come from abroad.

I'm getting to concentrate on contact with animals, possibly from overseas.

Will he be coherent or not?

He shouldn't perfectly lucid until the convulsions start again.

If they get really bad, his heart and breathing may stop.

Well, can't we sedate him again?

Not until we know what's caused it.

I've got to know, Kate, and there isn't much time.

Jenny.

Jim, can you hear me?

Dr. Rowan, what's happening to me?

We don't know yet.

This is Dr. Radcliffe. He's going to take a look at you.

Jim?

How am I going to die?

You must keep calm so we can try and find out what this is.

Now, I need you to think back.

Have you been bitten by any animals recently?

No.

Not that I can remember.

Well? They're sure of it, Sarge. Well, how can they tell?

Don't they have to do tests or something? Apparently not.

He's got all the symptoms.

Dr Radcliffe's seen it before.

Right. Do we know where he got it from?

No, not yet.

He doesn't remember being bitten by anything.

You can catch it if a dog just licks you. So as far as we know, Swaby could

caught the disease from any animal he's touched in the last six months.

Well, that's about it, Sarge.

But it does tie in with one or two other things that have been happening lately.

Such as?

Well, something that's getting at the wildlife in the area.

We had blamed it on foxes, but one of Tom Gordon's beagles has been killed.

So it could be established in the wild already.

What a mess.

I remember an outbreak like this when I was a kid.

Animals, the troops brought back from abroad after the war.

Well, did anyone die of it? Not that I can recall. Folks were on the lookout

it. First sign of a dog in a panic and someone had screamed rabies.

Happened in our street once.

There was this animal rushing about all over the place, great trails of saliva,

and two men cornered it and clubbed it to death.

Turned out there was nothing wrong with it, just a lost dog that was thirsty.

But I'll tell you something, Rowan. If this is confirmed, we're in big trouble,

and we've just got to find out where it started.

Village dogs, that's all.

What about wild animals? Have you been cubbing them? No, no, nothing, nothing.

Have you had anything hanging around the garage?

Are you sure, Jim?

Sure, sure. What about customers that weren't local?

No, there's a car. A car?

A foreign car.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, foreign car.

Oh, poor, poor car.

Sad dog. It was a friendly dog.

Did you touch it?

Probably.

Have you any idea where they were from, Jim?

It's a broad left.

It's a left -hander. A left -hander.

I saw the bloke in the pub.

I saw the bloke in the pub.

Thanks, Jim.

Hello. Thanks, Andrew.

All right, thanks, Kate.

I'll be over as soon as I can.

What is it?

It's crazy. It's in a pretty bad way.

All Kate got out of him was a few words. He's talking about an Opel car, left

-hand drive, caravan, and a friendly dog.

Right, we'll start a search at dawn for a friendly dog, a caravan, what was the

other thing? A left -hand drive car. A left -hand drive car. Meanwhile, you get

on the phone. You deal with division and the local council, and I'll try and get

some sense out of the Ministry of Agriculture.

Hello.

Right, let's go.

We can't.

Jamie's gone.

Gone?

Gone where?

To look for Sam, I presume.

Well, let's find him and get on the road, hmm?

Lounge.

Very nice of you to bear us the time, gentlemen.

Hog.

Lounge. Beer.

Harland.

Fag.

Fag.

Wilson. Anderson.

Francis!

Are you sure there's nothing you have to report to me?

Sarge. You are aware, I hope, of the importance of reporting damage to police

property, particularly when it's so damn new it's hardly out of its wrapping

paper. Sergeant Blaketon.

Morning. Philip Martin for the Ministry.

What's the latest news?

Well, the entire division is checking all campsites and lay -bys for the

vehicle. Excellent.

Shall we start, then?

I'll come through to my office.

If nothing turns up within the next two hours, the search widens by 50 miles.

Right. They're standing by from Sheffield to Newcastle. I understand the

involved were still in the area yesterday.

Right, I believe.

Where was that? At a campsite near Aidensfield. Bellamy, two teas.

MVZ 192. Right, Rowan, got it.

Barely more campsite, it is.

Right. Start with a 12 -mile radius around there, then.

Perhaps you'd like to brief your men for the roadblock, Sergeant, while I get

the local council into the area to pick up strays.

And we'd better call in all local gamekeepers. We're going to need help

pest control.

Right, Ventress?

Yes, sir.

Ventress? Yes, sir.

Ventress? Yes, sir.

Get on the phone to the local gamekeepers and check this registration

ferry companies.

Right, sir. Right, you lot, listen to me. Before we set up the roadblocks,

are the regulations.

No animals to be brought into the infected area. No animals to be removed

the infected area without a special licence.

All dogs to be muzzled.

All cats to be kept indoors.

All strays to be rounded up.

And all feral cats to be shot on sight.

Oh, you'd better shut down all hunting as well.

Well, His Lordship won't like that.

No, he's not.

Why, what's the matter?

Well, we think he's got rabies.

What?

It looks like someone's brought the dog in from abroad.

Now, we think this man was in your pub yesterday.

Do you remember any strangers?

It was pretty quiet yesterday.

Well, there was a man in. His name's on the notice by the bar. He'd lost his

dog.

Oh, my God.

Can I use your phone?

Yeah.

Ah, I've got it.

Right, thanks.

Well, the roadblocks will be sealing off the area by now. Can you ask your

superiors to get on to the army for extra manpower?

We'll need to organise sweeps to the woods of the district.

Any luck with the gamekeepers?

Well, they're meeting up at the Aidensfield village hall at midday.

what I want you to... Sarge, I've got a response on the ferries. The car was

bought in by Major Michael Halstead from Germany.

It was an Opel Record.

Sounds like a suite.

What's up?

Lord, do you know he should be wearing a muzzle?

I don't know if he has coppers, that kind of flight, does he?

You can't take him out of the area.

What are you talking about? I'll be bringing him back.

You won't be bringing him back because you're not taking him out.

Are you serious, Claude?

Come on, turn it round.

Claude! What?

Do you know your rail line's broken?

Yeah. If I know who did it, he's going to get gelded.

Morning,

Nick.

What's up?

We've got an outbreak of rabies.

Eh? There's a retriever on the loose.

All animals are quarantined within a 12 -mile radius of Burley Wood.

That's where your dog was killed, isn't it?

Aye. I was down there again this morning.

Did you see anything?

Well... The pack caught a fox.

Is that unusual?

Very.

But if it was sick or injured?

Well, this retriever's been on the loose for three days.

So the fox could have been infected?

They all could be.

But that means my pack could be carrying it.

Well, make sure you muzzle them and keep them inside.

How's it passed on?

Saliva, usually.

It has to get into the bloodstream somehow.

Talk to your vet about it.

If I get any news, I'll let you know.

Right.

Nurse?

Call Dr. Ratcliffe quick.

They're talking now. Immediately.

So when do you expect him, Gina?

Well, he didn't say when exactly. He just said it'd be quite early.

Do you think he's left the area?

No, not without his car.

We've got people up at the campsite.

So what's going to happen?

What the house did. No, I mean round here.

Well, it's not a good time to be a stray dog, George.

Hey, is it true about Swaby?

Yeah, afraid so.

Closed. There's a meeting at the village hall today for all the gamekeepers in

the area.

Might be a good idea for you to be there.

What else? Target practice?

They need a bit of help, Claude.

I'll have a large scotch.

That's him.

Morning.

Major Halstead?

Yes, that's right.

P .C. Rowan, Aidensfield Police.

We have risen to believe you breached the importation of Dogs and Cats Order

1928. Would you mind accompanying me to Ashfordly Police Station?

Well, that's that.

We did everything we could, Kate.

I just hope we're not going to have an epidemic.

Major Olstead.

Your house did.

Do you know why you're here?

Yes, I do.

So you admit the offence.

Yes. Yes, I do.

To be perfectly honest, it's a relief.

I'll need you to make a statement.

Did you tell him about Swaby?

No, Sergeant.

Oh.

What then?

A man has just died of rabies.

In our local hospital.

Half an hour ago.

You may remember him, Major. He used to run the garage in Aidensfield.

He sold you some petrol.

I'm sorry.

That's hardly the point, is it?

Well, there's nothing wrong with that.

Are you saying that our dog... It's not exactly an everyday occurrence in these

pubs. It's a major.

Right, we best get you to a doctor.

And your family.

Where are they, by the way?

Well, they're still out looking for the dog.

Well, why didn't you say so before, man?

Rowan, get out there. Start looking for him. Ventress!

And you better start praying they don't find him.

Jamie! Jamie!

Morning, gentlemen. Thank you for coming.

Let's go inside. I'll explain the plan for the afternoon.

What are they up to?

It's extra manpower.

Help clear the woods.

Control to Delta Alpha 2 -4.

Delta Alpha 2 -4, go ahead, Sarge.

Rowan, Mrs.

Allstead's turned up at the roadblock on the Trentford Road, but the boy's not

with her.

So get yourself over there and see if you can find out where he's gone.

Yeah, I'm on my way.

And Ventress?

Yes, Sarge? You'd better get outside too and see if you can find him.

Take the new car.

Only this time, try not to wrap it round anything.

Yes, Sarge.

How soon will you know if I'm infected?

About a week, but you'll have to be tested again in ten days.

Will I have to have the injections?

Almost certainly.

All of us? Yes.

I've heard about them. I'm not sure whether my wife will be able to stand

Believe me, Mr Harford, any course of injections is better than what Jim Swaby

went through.

You know you're entering the quarantine zone. I know, sir. I didn't count, sir.

But the dog catches me.

Go on, then.

Bye.

Mrs. Halstead's here.

Have you told her anything?

I thought I'd leave it to you.

Mrs. Halstead? Yes?

Do you see Ryan?

Do you understand what's going on? No, I don't. That man won't tell me anything.

Is my husband all right? Is it my son?

Your husband's been arrested.

You brought a dog into this country from Germany?

We were going to have it quarantined until it was pet ruled.

Dog is almost certainly rabid.

It's already caused one death. Now, where's your son?

He's out here somewhere looking for the dog. He could be anywhere.

Well, where did you last see him?

I think he was going to take a look in those woods. That's where I was going.

Right.

for this damn lock.

All right, there's no need to push.

Here, I'll be gone.

Oh, God.

All right, come on. Come on, easy, dear.

That's all right.

Right up.

How's it going, Cole?

All right.

Hey, who do I send the bill to for this lot?

Have you got many more to do?

No, this is the last.

Well, come on, then. You can give me a hand.

Hey, I'm nearly an old -age pensioner, you know.

Hello, Sam.

Where have you been?

Looking for you everywhere.

Good boy.

Hang on, hang on.

Somebody moved it.

Where? Down that wall.

Jamie?

How's the dog, Jamie? I've got to get him to a vet. Jamie, come here. What are

you doing?

I've got to get him to a vet!

No!

No! No!

Sam!

No! No!

Jamie. No.

Stay with the dog. I'll send someone over. How long's that going to take?

Well, I don't know.

Jamie. Come on, Jamie. Come on. What are you doing? I'm sorry, son.

Tom Gordon's vehicle's pulled a box this morning. That means nothing.

I heard Tom say so himself.

Yeah, but that's not... So that's all... Like a beagle, though, probably. I'm

shooting nothing. I don't know what they're waiting for.

They can't take any chance of something like this.

One of them dogs could get loose. That's enough of that, John.

If the authorities won't do it, we should get out there and finish them off

ourselves. While we can. I'll have no talk of lynching anyone or anything, not

in my book. You just sweep these matters up to those that understand them.

There's a man dead, John.

Aye, and there'll be another soon.

Aye, and a lot more.

Wait, job's going on. You've got a job, John. Yes, I have.

To the radio, my sergeant.

Delta Alpha 2 -4 to control.

Control receiving. What is it, Rowan?

The dog's been shot, Sarge.

I'm in Burley Woods. I've got Jamie Houston with me. He's been bitten.

Now, where should I take him for his inoculation?

Let me call the doctor.

Out.

Where are they now?

Tell them to wait there. I'll find out where Dr Rowan is with the vaccine and

call you back.

Excuse me.

Something's come up.

Actively, police. Hello, this is the Aidensfield Arms. George? This is

Blaketon. What the hell is going on down there?

Aidensfield Arms!

Kate, can you hear me?

Yes, James. What is it?

They found the boy and the dog, but the boy's been bitten.

Where are you now?

Three miles out from Pickering. I'll tell them to meet you at the Ford on the

Strensford Road. You know the one?

Yes, I do.

Kate, inject the globulin as close to the wound as you can.

Rowan, the Ford on the Strensford Road.

She's heading there now from Pickering.

Right. On our way, Sarge.

Right, come on, Jamie.

On you get.

Ventress!

No, no, Ventress, we've found the boy.

Listen, just get down to the Aidensfield Arms now. There's some kind of riot

going on.

Hello, Jamie. I'm Dr. Rowan. Can you show me where you were bitten?

Right.

I'm going to give you an injection, and then we'll get you to the hospital.

You shot my dog.

I'm sorry.

Right. Well, I wanted to speak to you together, because what I have to say

concerns you both.

Now, I know that you both knew the quarantine regulations regarding the

importation of animals into this country.

As a result of this, you can expect a fine of 300 pounds.

However, I've spoken to my superiors, and their decision is that you, Major,

will be charged, but you won't.

But, Sergeant, it was my fault. Just let me finish.

That was their decision, not mine. If it was up to me, you'd both be charged

with manslaughter.

Between the two of you, you've caused the death of a good man and jeopardised

the life of your own son.

We found him, by the way.

Oh, thank God.

He's in hospital.

Hospital? Why?

Well, he's been bitten.

So they've started injections immediately.

He'd best go to them.

He'll be in a lot of pain.

Thanks to the two of you.

What will happen to Halstead?

Well, he'll probably get a fine.

And the papers will tell everyone what an idiot he's been.

It's the boy Arthur's sorry for.

If we're lucky, we'll have caught him in time.

Doesn't do Jim much good.

Well, you couldn't have known, Kate.

I should have known.

That's what doctors are for.

To know things that other people don't. Well, it doesn't exactly happen every

week, does it?

You'd sleep a day.

Now what?

Hello, Nick.

What have you been up to?

I got into a fight at the pub.

Al, if you let the handbrake off.

What handbrake?
