Original subtitles

I need someone in my life. I need a girl to hold me tight.

Someone to make me feel, make me feel alright.

Somebody help me, yeah.

Somebody help me now.

Oh, don't somebody tell me what I've done wrong.

begins the song.

Today there's nothing can go wrong. Good morning, Doctor.

Good morning, Liz.

You know, it's poets today, isn't it?

What poets?

Poets. Bushel Berlin, today's Saturday.

I want to get back in time for the cup final.

Here's your patience for this morning. I don't think it'll be that early.

Oh, well.

Maybe we'll go into extra time.

And, Doctor, I found this. I was cleaning behind the filing cabinet and

have dropped down there.

I'm ever so sorry.

I hope it wasn't important.

Sorry. Mr. Wilson, you're not... You're supposed to be out of your bed.

And you're supposed to have got me some breakfast. No, you're nil by mouth.

I've got a flaming, inglowing toenail, and I had my operation yesterday.

Is there a problem here, Nurse Beaumont? Yes, I haven't had any breakfast.

We only serve breakfast to patients in their bed.

Well, there's fat chance of that.

Min?

Have you got a moment, Jill?

Just wanted to show you that.

Oh, what is it?

It's from Caroline.

She left it for me before the coach crash to... Well, to tell me that...

why don't you just read it?

But... Why now?

Libby locked it.

Gordon, I can't read this. It's a private letter from Caroline to you.

last letter.

Please.

Doctor, the course guard's on the phone. Just give me a minute.

They need you now. It's an emergency.

I'll be here later.

Mr Harper, did he?

Saturday.

I'm aware of that.

You don't work Saturdays.

Correction, I'm not paid to work on Saturdays. It is my job to make sure

those who do get paid to work at the weekend do so.

Particularly on cup final day.

So, you are working today?

It would appear so.

There's a patient on Milner with a complaint. Can you go and see him?

Look. I'm not asking to go to Flippin' Wembley. I just want to watch the cut

on television. I'm sorry, that's out of the question.

The television is only available during the evenings. The afternoons are for

visitors. I'll pay.

How much do you want?

If you're attempting to bribe me, you've got the wrong man.

This conversation is over.

It's a pity.

It should be a good game.

Classic.

Mr. Hopkirk.

Might be the right man.

Remind me what we're doing, staff nurse.

Mr Birkhead, gallbladder. Wound needs resuturing.

Wretched man.

If he wasn't so fat, his wound wouldn't have broken down and ruined a good

morning's golf.

Now, once more, onto the breach.

Don't!

What the devil?

It's full of ether.

Playing happy man, you could have set fire to the entire hospital.

And caused Mr Rose some inconvenience. You can do without the lame attempts at

satire, thank you.

Well, don't just stand there staring. Get this mess cleaned up.

I'm ready to start.

You know, one of these days I'm going to stick one on him. You have to join a

long queue.

Have you been to the convent before?

No, this is my first visit.

Mother...

I told you that Bridget did not want any visitors.

She did, but I thought, as I was passing, we've worked together for

Well, if you don't mind waiting.

I'm not in any hurry.

Stop!

I've not seen Hayton around for a bit. Is she out?

She'll be back in a bit.

Is that like before five or after?

Before.

But if the television happens to move out of the day room before then, she

not notice.

Well, I don't think she'll be watching the cup final.

Might be the only one, Alan.

It's all been fixed. I'll move the telly into the side ward and Bob's your

uncle. How big's this side ward?

Well, big enough for you and a television set, just.

It's no use. Where are my mates going?

Your mates?

I can't watch the cup final on my own. It's not natural.

I'll have to see if I can get you a bigger room, then.

And we'll need some beer and sandwiches.

Where am I going to get them from?

Listen, I'm sure you'll find a way.

Needs a lot to make, cut final. You can see that.

Leave it to me.

Samantha, have you got a moor? Not now.

Later? A much later.

See you then, then.

Hey, Romeo, I've got a job for you.

Listen, when you're free, I want you to nip down to the shipping and buy me a

crate of brown ale.

There's been an accident.

He's outside in a car.

I need some help.

Please. Get a doctor.

And what's his name? His name's Brian.

I work with him on Brian Marshall.

Oh, come on. All right. All right, mate. We'll need to get him inside. OK. Get a

trauma. All right.

OK, Brian, you're going to be OK.

I've got you.

He keeps following me around like one of those little dogs with a hair brushed

over his eye.

An old English sheepdog?

No, the sweet ones with the little bones.

No, it doesn't matter.

I'm not really a doggy person.

You're not really an avid person either, are you?

No.

I've been dropping hints. He just doesn't get it.

Maybe if you could... No, I'm not getting involved again. Mel!

Mel! Is Mr. Rose left yet? I don't know. Can you get him? It's an emergency.

Jim Warrington, Coast Guard.

Gordon O'Mara. They've told me there's been a landslide here. Yes, about 50

yards where the cliff went.

Cut off a group of fossil hunters on the foreshore. You know, we get a lot of

them this time of year.

You all right with heights, are you?

This is Trent Pine, Mr. Oates. She knows it, Virgin? She knows.

Send that to Ashfordly for a cross match, a couple of pints. We need to

few.

How did this happen, Brian?

It was working with a harrow.

It slipped and fell onto it.

Blade went straight through his leg. I had to lift him off it. Well, lucky you

were there.

We'll need to do an operation to clean up the wound and check there's no more

damage. Can't you just bandage him up?

No, it's too deep.

There's a real risk of infection.

You said you work with Brian?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Well, we should contact his family and let them know that he's here. If you

could speak with Lizzie in reception so she can do that, then we'll take him to

the operating theatre now.

Hello, Samantha.

Lily would live with you. They need you in theatre.

OK. Are you doing anything tonight?

Yeah.

I've got to work for my exams. What about tomorrow?

I'm having lunch with my uncle.

I'll be free all day tomorrow.

Sorry.

What the devil was he doing with a harrow at this time of year?

Sitting on it.

Harrow in the Kaiba?

Splendid. One punctured bunking and bang goes my game of golf.

Ready?

As I'll ever be.

My old boss, Stan, he's down there to help you out the harness.

Great. Just don't look down.

Off you go.

I'm sorry.

I was in chapel.

I heard the singing.

Matron, if you want me to come back to the Royal, I'm afraid you've had a

journey.

I just wanted to talk it over so as I'm sure in my own mind that you'd taken the

right decision.

And if there's anything at all I can do... There isn't.

It's not anything you've done or anyone else.

I'm sorry.

You loved your job at the hospital. I could see that in the way that you did

What went wrong?

Nothing.

Well, seeing as I'm here...

Could you show me the convent? I've always wanted to have a look round.

OK, Doctor, you'll soon be down.

Steady away!

All right.

Let's get him out of there quick.

Are you all right?

It's not a question a doctor asks when it's just before a particularly

unpleasant procedure.

I suppose the answer is yes, under the circumstances.

Well, the man over here looks to be in a bad way.

All right, let me see him. Follow me.

Mind your step here.

Hello.

I'm Dr. Oldrod.

Can you tell me your name, please?

His name's Martin.

Is he going to be all right?

I'm sure he will be.

Will you?

I don't like the look on his ankle.

Do you want to move him first?

No. No, I need to immobilize his ankle first.

Look, I've got some splits up in the abdomen. Would you be so kind as to get

them down for me, please?

Thank you.

Oh, it's lovely here.

So calm.

Yes, it is.

Matron, I know what you're trying to do.

But I'm not going to change my mind.

You only see me at the hospital.

But this is my real life here.

And I've been neglecting it.

With all the overtime I work, I've missed mass far too often.

Even at Christmas.

I could speak to your mother superior.

and explain that you were doing it to help out the nurses who wanted to be

their families. I was doing it because I wanted to.

What if we look at the hours you work?

It's more complicated than that.

You know the way some doctors are torn between their work and spending time

their family?

Well, the church is my family.

The centre of my life.

It's more than that, really. It's what my life's about.

And I've been letting it down.

We need you at the Royal.

We rely on you much more than we should, maybe, but that's how it is.

Bridget, at least think about coming back.

Oh,

Alan, what have you done?

Call the Royal. Tell them we've got five patients coming in with minor injuries.

And also tell them we could do with some help with this.

Excuse me.

Sir.

That's the worst of it for the moment.

But Martin... We'll get him to hospital as soon as we can.

The whole cliff went from under him. It was horrible.

Are you his wife?

Fiancé. Helen Gardner.

We're getting married next month.

We're supposed to be.

Don't worry.

We'll do everything we can to make sure that you do.

All right?

Slight technical hitch. Very sadly, the hospital television's broken.

Get another one.

Well, I'm trying to, but I just want you building your hopes up.

Listen, Mosh, we had a deal. I give you £10 to get me beer and sandwiches and

somewhere to watch the cup final.

Well, the beer and sandwiches are in hand. Then you've two hours to find the

television set, haven't you? Or else.

Right.

I can't come back.

Just tell me one thing.

What's the real reason?

I suddenly realised I was being foolish.

And selfish.

I was thinking about myself and what I wanted.

And there are always temptations.

You'll probably say I should have been able to cope, have the strength of mind.

But I know how I am.

I'm headstrong.

I do things I regret.

And if I'd stayed... I think this is where God wants me to

be.

Matron?

It's the hospital.

They want to speak to you on the phone. It's urgent.

Excuse me.

Keep going.

Not so fast.

You should go next. Then you can be with him at the hospital.

No, there's other people who are hurt.

Well, I think we'll get you over as well. I'm okay.

I'm not in any hurry to go on that thing.

Bad head behind, eh?

Terrified of him?

Yes.

Me too.

But then I don't much fancy having to swim for it either.

And that tide's coming in a bit too quickly for my liking.

Dr. Omerod needs help. I said I'll go. He's just down the road.

Is he all right? As far as I know.

Well, I suppose that this is goodbye, isn't it?

Yes.

Thank you for all you've done for us.

Maybe you could come back.

For a proper send -off. A party or something.

That's very kind, but... I don't think so.

Goodbye.

God bless.

Can you have the keys to the boardroom?

You can't go in there.

I've got to put these somewhere. I can't leave them in my room.

What have you got there?

Samples. What sort of samples?

Urine samples. You want to check?

No, just get them out of reception.

Dad, that was just a lie.

They are urine samples, just not yet.

Right, hour and a half to kick off all I need to do now is organise a telly.

No.

Oh, come on, Lizzie, I just need a borrow of yours.

No, Dave's got his pals coming round.

Well, bring them here, they can have beer and sandwiches.

No chance.

Where are you getting the sandwiches from?

Put everything you need there. There's bread, butter, a pound of cheese and a

jar of Mr Branson's Beth.

Dad!

When this man first came in, did he look like a farmer?

Any telltale signs?

Mud on his boots? Straw in his hair? A propensity to say ooh -ah -ah? I was

concerned with his injury.

Small edged wound?

Larger puckered exit wound?

What else could that be?

A gunshot wound.

Somebody's got some explaining to do. I think we have to consider that

possibility. So we need... an X -ray.

I hope nobody else has plans for this afternoon.

Apart from the cup final.

That's a soccer game, is it?

Hmm. On television in about an hour's time.

Realise it damages your eyesight?

I mean watching television in the daytime.

Still, look on the bright side.

You'll be protecting your retinas and you'll have the opportunity to hear all

about my time in the RAMC.

Do you know much about Korea?

Yeah.

I think I chose the wrong one.

These are the people we brought up for, Pa. We're waiting for more ambulances.

I'll try and make them as comfortable as I can for now.

Where's Dr.

Omerod? He's down on the shore with some more casualties.

What about the tide?

We're working as fast as we can.

We need to get moving now. Is he ready to go?

Next one's all set, over. It's just me and two more left.

Where's the woman gone?

Helen!

Helen!

Helen!

Nobody's manning the reception desk.

Oh, it's my lunch hour.

So I see.

I didn't have any breakfast.

Oh, I'll be back in a moment.

I thought you might need blankets, and I brought some tea as well. Thank you.

Is there any chance of you helping?

Of course. That's why I'm here.

But it doesn't change anything?

No, of course not.

Where's Dr. Almrod?

He's still at the bottom of the cliff. They haven't brought him up yet.

She's got to nip home, get our telly, then we're ready for kick -off.

What's Mum going to say?

She doesn't have to know I've got your Auntie Dolly to take us to the bingo.

what a spread, Lizzie. You've done me proud. I couldn't have done it without

you.

What's going on?

Er, well, I can explain. Go on.

Well, it's not what you think.

You aren't planning to watch the cup final in here?

Yeah, but it's not cup final today, is it?

I'm waiting.

We're planning a party.

Why? Special occasion.

It's Dr. Klein's birthday.

Yes, yes, Dr. Klein.

And it's a secret, so don't you let on.

I take it this party will start at the end of your shift.

Well, it's going to have to, isn't it? I mean, I've got stacks of things to do

this afternoon.

In that case, I'll take the keys to this room.

Thank you.

After you.

Look, we've got to go now.

Tom.

Look, we haven't got much time.

You don't want to die here, do you?

What is it?

It was all my fault.

What was?

I had this stupid argument with Martin. All I did was push him away.

Then he slipped on the loose stones and that started the whole thing.

I thought I'd killed him.

But you didn't mean to do it, did you? I didn't know that! Just then, at that

moment, I didn't care.

You go back.

No.

I'm not going without you.

Lizzie, I'm making up for five minutes to collect our telly. You don't know

where I've gone.

Yes, I do. You just told me.

I forget that. It caused me enough trouble already today.

Why did you have to tell Harper it was Dr. Klein's birthday?

Well, it is.

Mr. Middleditch sent her a card.

And don't you dare blame me.

We'll just have to hope that nobody else finds out about this party, so that

when I get the food back, there's no harm done.

Have you had anyone with a gunshot wound brought in here this afternoon?

Well, you'll have to speak to one of the doctors.

There was an armed robbery in Ashfordly at lunchtime. One of the robbers got

shot, and there's a chance he might have come in here.

So it's urgent.

It's Dr Goodwin you should see, but he's in the operating theatre.

That fellow, who's he?

I don't know. He brought in a patient.

Excuse me!

Alec Glazer!

You know your problem.

I never forget a face.

You're out again, are you? Yeah.

That did me time.

So, Parker's loss is our gain, eh?

What do you want?

What are you doing here?

This lad had an accident. I brought him in.

If you told me you'd nicked his wallet, I'd believe you.

Is that his bag?

No. No, it's mine.

Well, you don't mind if I have a look, then?

What's this about, eh?

I've just had help.

Hand it over, please.

Don't do anything silly.

You'll just leave me, all right?

And nobody's going to get hurt.

I can't do that.

Simple cleansing of the wounds would suffice.

Right, I'm taking him. Now.

Get that man out of here.

There's no need for this. I'm not continuing this operation until you

Mr. Rose?

Your choice.

Oh, no.

You get him finished up now, or you're going to get shot.

If you kill me, where will you get another surgeon from? In the meantime,

chum will bleed to death.

How long's this going to take?

It's up to you.

I refuse to carry out an operation at gunpoint. I am playing games, mate. Do

something. You're not helping him.

Get back!

I mean it!

Right, I'll stay right here.

Come on!

The doctor's moved further along the shore.

We don't know what's going on.

Can you see?

No, not anymore.

Those rocks will be underwater in ten minutes.

The police say we have to evacuate the hospital and there's more casualties

arriving from the cliff accident.

All right, can you transfer as many as possible to Ashfordly General?

Thank you.

Mr Harper, what do you want?

We need to talk about the evacuation procedure.

Right, well, it's very simple, really.

Anybody who doesn't need to be here, you just send them home. OK.

Is it true about this gunman?

It is.

What's there anything I can do?

Give me a hand here. We're swamped with patients.

It's a long time since I did my casualty rotation.

I won't tell anybody if you don't.

If you are a visitor or a patient who is not confined to bed, would you please

leave the building?

This is an emergency!

You said to evacuate the building. I've got errands to run. No, this is more

important. All these people here, make them go away.

Well, actually, there are some patients on Milner. We could evacuate them from

the building, too, if you like. All right, get on with it. All right,

you say, Mr Rapp. All right, quiet! Quiet!

Right, if you would like another appointment... See, Lizzie, she will be

the book outside.

Off you go, quickly.

You're being completely unreasonable!

Who's in charge?

He is.

You know the only thing you'll achieve by this stunt of yours is bringing

infection into a sterile area.

Yeah. Well, I won't leave it.

What Mr Rose means is you're putting Brian at risk just by being in here.

We'll do all we can to save him.

He's not going to prison.

He won't be in any state to go anywhere for days.

Maybe weeks.

What happens to him after that isn't up to us.

We'll have to get him away from here before any more coppers arrive.

If you move him now, he could bleed to death or at the very least lose his leg.

Well, you could go.

You'd probably get away.

Why don't you grab the chance while you can?

No. I'm taking it with me.

Come on, get on with it.

I have to evacuate everyone from the hospital. Let them be moved. Mr Harper's

orders. What do we do? Just take them outside?

No, no, no. I know a lovely place across the road. Old Moncon's. Right, come on,

everybody. This is an emergency.

Chop, chop.

We're on our way to Wembley.

Better get him a unit or two of blood.

Could you, Alan?

You're not leaving.

He's lost a lot of blood.

We'll need to transfuse some more.

One of us will have to get some.

You.

You collect the blood. You come straight back.

You don't talk to nobody, right? You got that?

I'll be quick as I can. Well, go on, then.

Don't go in.

He thinks he's safe because he can't see any policemen.

Has he harmed anyone?

No, not yet.

What's his state of mind?

He's very agitated.

Has he threatened you?

Yes, and he means it.

I've got to hurry. He only let me out to collect more blood.

We can't allow you to go back in.

The patient will die if I don't.

One of my men can take the blood in.

I can't wait again. I have to go back in. Not until we've told you what we

you to do.

Right, how are we doing?

I don't know exactly how I plan to spend my birthday.

Oh, no, is it today?

Yeah, not that it matters.

Can you tell me what the patient is? His ankle's very swollen with luck.

Looks like a severe third -degree POTS fracture dislocation of the ankle.

The circulation in his foot's severely compromised. We'd better reduce that

swelling quickly or he's going to lose his foot.

Right, I'll see what's happening. I need to get the x -ray machine.

Tell me what the argument was about.

I told him I didn't want to marry him.

Well, why's that?

The whole thing, it was out of control. It's my mum booking the church and

inviting the guests, and Martin's family's so happy, and... Martin, too. I

should have told him before, but today was my last chance.

And he didn't take it too well?

He thought I was joking.

I told him...

Getting married, you should feel happy, shouldn't you?

I don't.

I'm doing it because my mum's bought a hat and ordered the cake.

I'm doing it because I'm too much of a coward not to.

Do you love him?

I like him.

Most of the time.

It's not enough, is it?

But you don't hate him?

Of course I don't.

Helen.

If you die here, he'll think that it's all his fault.

And he'll have to live with that for the rest of his life.

You don't understand.

I told him I didn't love him. It's going to make life murder for him. There's

our families, there's all our friends, everyone at work. I'm going to have to

face them all.

Tell them it's all my fault. I can't do it.

May I tell you something?

Something I only found out today.

Last year, my wife left me.

And I didn't know why.

Today I received a letter from her.

In it she told me that she'd made a mistake in marrying me in the first

And she'd never really loved me.

So I think you did the right thing in telling Martin.

And you shouldn't feel guilty.

You didn't push your wife off a cliff?

No.

But she died two months ago.

You said she wrote... I only got it today.

But the point is that... If I hadn't got it, I

would never have known.

And I'd still believe that it was all my fault.

So what I'm trying to say is this, Helen.

I think you should go back up there and talk to Martin.

Sort something out.

I must go back to the hospital.

They'll need me to help with all these people.

Of course.

You must.

Well, goodbye, Bridget.

Goodbye, Matron.

God bless.

The police out there?

Yes. They told me to give you a message. They know who you are. They say you

took part in the post office robbery today.

And that you shot Brian by accident while you were getting away.

If you give yourself up now, they'll do what they can for you. Maybe they can do

some sort of a deal. Oh, aye.

I'm going to have a chat with them, shall I? I mean, I got a really well

coppers. You, you need to finish up now.

We're working as fast as we can. I don't believe you. He's telling the truth.

If you shot him in the first place, will you believe me now?

I didn't shoot him.

The police are lying to you. Why would I shoot me?

Just get him finished.

Let's go.

All the way.

Let's get him up here then.

Take it steady!

There's never been this many men in pyjamas in the nurse's home before.

Well, not at one time.

That be now. I'm trying to watch the match.

Come on, city!

Is this man dangerous?

Alec Glazer? It could be. He's just out of jail.

But he's a thief. He's never been involved in violence before.

Was he involved in this robbery today?

My officers have just arrested another man. A youngster.

He's admitted shooting the poet master. He says he's never heard of Glazer.

Do you know who the patient is?

No. Glazer gave the hospital a false name.

But he definitely took part in the robbery.

Could I ask you to vacate the hospital till this is resolved?

I'm sorry, Inspector.

But my staff are in there with him.

Until I know they're safe, I won't be going anywhere.

So what's your plan after we finish?

Get him out of here.

There's other hospitals.

But you're risking his life.

Your own too. Look, whatever trouble he's in, you're only going to make it

worse. You don't know what you're talking about. The truth is you don't

much of a chance.

Your post office robbery in Ashfordly was on the news at lunchtime. Two masked

men and a handgun. And possibly you haven't heard, the postmaster died at

scene. So I assume one of you is a murderer.

Yeah. Well, you can assume what you want.

It's all the same to me. If I only operated on people I approved of, I'd be

short of work.

Look, the police out there, they've got guns.

Tell me!

Yes, yes they have. Right.

So once you get finished here, you come in with us.

You're going to be our ticket out of here.

Police won't let me anywhere near.

Have you tried Ashfordly General?

I don't want to move the patient again. I can do the operation here. I just need

an X -ray machine and I need an anaesthetist. Surely we can get an X

Right, let me have a word.

Nora, how did the Mr. Wilson eat my egg?

Hey, Ken, we could do with some more beer.

Oh, I can't believe he does.

Look at the check.

It's cost me a plain fortune.

Oh, how much is that, ten pounds?

I spent it. Well, there were all the sandwiches and all the brown eggs.

You'll get your money back on it, Mr Harper. Did you do a favour locking it

And you'll be eating cheese sandwiches for a week.

Off you go.

Who's gone?

I'm singing, you know.

Excuse me, matron, but you need to keep away.

My patient needs an operation and we need to X -ray him. It's out of the

question. He's a 27 -year -old schoolteacher. His name is Martin

He has a badly fractured ankle, and the circulation of his foot is obstructed.

If he's not operated on soon, he could lose his foot.

If you're taking this decision, I want you to be aware of the consequences.

If you go any further, you're in the line of fire.

The X -ray machine is in the operating theatre. How else am I going to get it?

I'm not allowing you in there.

Dr. Goodwin!

Yes?

Dr. Wetherill needs the X -ray machine urgently.

They can't have it.

Can it wait?

We have to operate soon.

It's a young man. They're very worried about the circulation in his foot.

Dr. Goodwin!

Give me a minute.

Well?

You heard what she said. All they need is a machine.

You're lying.

Come on, why would I do that?

Because the police have got some sort of plan.

What's happening, Doctor?

Our friend here thinks it's a trap.

I'll let you have the machine as soon as the police go away.

They won't do that.

We're not taking sides.

We're just trying to help another patient.

Move. You. You listen to me.

One of you is going to die, right? Unless they leave.

Now.

Did you hear that?

What do you suggest we do?

You'll have to wait.

Sir?

I'll take the x -ray machine.

Get out of here, you.

Oh, no. I'm sorry.

I have to put my patients first.

I'd do the same for your friend there.

Can I take it?

The police know you weren't involved in that post office robbery.

I'm sure you're a good man.

Go on.

I'll give you a hand.

Thank you.

I'll need to go too as soon as we've finished here.

Do you think I'm stupid?

The other patient will need a pre -med.

That's the injection we give before the full anaesthetic. You're not going

anywhere.

You're not going to shoot anybody.

You know, there's something that doesn't add up about you and Brian.

If you were the sort of bloke that kills people in cold blood, you'd have left

him to die.

At the most, you would have dumped him outside the hospital and run off, but

care about him.

Enough to stay.

Enough to risk everything.

No, you're not a killer.

His so -called mate dumped him on our doorstep like a side of meat.

He was bleeding so much I thought he was going to die.

Who is he?

Is he your brother?

No, he's my son.

He was nine months old when I went inside for the first time. And all the

after that, he's my son and I didn't even know him.

I've never took him to the football, never took him to the pub, I've never

had a row with him.

This is the only thing he's ever asked me to do for him. And I can't even get

this right, can I?

You saved his life by bringing him here.

What life?

What life is he going to have after all this? Hey, hey, he's going to know you

love him.

Listen, the police know you weren't involved in the robbery.

You were just trying to do what any father could.

Protect his son.

Ron's going to be okay.

Madhouse? It's the cup final, Stephanie.

Well, I didn't think it would come dancing.

What are all my patients doing in here? Well, Mr Harper asked me to evacuate the

hospital. I had to put them somewhere, didn't I?

Well, the emergency's over now, so they can all go back to the ward. Excuse me.

Right.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Well, how long is there to go?

Five minutes.

You can't turn it off now.

Well, I want you all back on the ward at five o 'clock.

Nurse Bournemouth, you can come now.

Are you back, sister?

Yes, I'm back.

And not a minute too soon, by the looks of it.

Another satisfied customer.

Textbook pot fracture.

No complications?

No. I've had quite enough of those for one day, thank you.

Right, ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much. That is that.

I'm ready for a very large whiskey.

Well, I think the drinks should be on the birthday girl.

Who told you?

Lizzie. She's organised the party.

Hello?

Have they checked you over?

Yes, they said I could go.

I just wanted to say thank you. Yes, well...

I'll talk to Martin, explain things the best way I can. No, I've got to do it.

I should, shouldn't I?

Yes.

I think you should.

He's under full anaesthetic, I'm afraid.

It'll be some time before he comes round.

I'll wait.

So, you don't want to go home either?

Not much.

Maybe I should marry Martin. I just don't want to let anyone down.

Well, maybe that's the worst thing you could do.

If it's difficult to leave him now.

It could be far worse if you were married.

Had children.

I know.

It's just I found out too late.

Harker, this is for you.

I asked around and nobody'd heard anything about this party for Dr Klein,

took the liberty of running off a few invitations on the Gestetner.

I'd hate to see all that food and drink go to waste.

Be there or be square.

Oh, flippy neck.

How are you, Doctor?

Well, not too bad. All that sea air's probably done me good, even if it's made

me late for my ward round.

Nice to have you back, sister.

Thank you.

Thank you, Lizzie. This is great.

My dad who organised it, really.

Aye. Must have been off the head.

Well, then he's run to the right person.

Aye. What would you like? Brown or brown?

What are you so cheerful about?

Well, I like to see people enjoying themselves.

Not at your expense.

Aye, well, I managed to run a little book up the final score and, er, well...

Some people got a bit carried away, what with the atmosphere at the nurses' home

and in the end, I did rather well.

Dad! Oh, come on, I'm paying for the party anyway. You've got to cover me

Ed. Alan, it sounded like you were really brave.

Me? No, not really. I was just doing my job.

Well, I'm very proud of you.

And, er, maybe we could go out this evening.

No. No, I can't. Not tonight.

Well, why not?

We've got finals on match at day.

Well, it doesn't make much difference now, does it?

That's up to you.

Well, as John Maynard Keane said, in the long term,

we're all dead, aren't we?

It's just today I realised that maybe I should be spending a little more time

thinking about the short term.

Because you never know.

Anything, really.

Well...

Talking about the short term.

You free this evening?

I could be.

Thank you for coming back.

I didn't do a very good job of staying away, did I?

Luckily for us.

What made you change your mind?

God moves in mysterious ways.

There must have been a reason for that emergency on the cliffs today.

Perhaps he wants me to try again.

He's not the only one.

Oh, that's pretty foul, this stuff.

Well, it doesn't seem to have stopped you knocking it back.

You realise you took a hell of a risk facing down that fellow with a gun? He

could have shot the lot of us. You're a damn fool.

But you haven't agreed with me to say this.

A brave one, too.

Well, no.

Well, maybe if I hadn't made such a pig's ear of the diagnosis in the first

place, it would never have happened.

We all make mistakes.

Even me, on occasion.

Only one way to make this stuff drinkable.

Cheers.

No one told me there was a party here this evening.

It's my fault, Matron.

It's my birthday.

Many happy returns.

And now, will someone please get me a drink? I need one after the day I've

Cheers!
