All language subtitles for The Royal s07e09 Busmans Holiday

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

Someone to make me feel, make me feel
all right.

Somebody help me, yeah.

Somebody help me now.

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

Don't you give me no dirty look.

Look while you can, he knows what's
good.

Give me that blue three -thousand.

You ain't gonna rock and roll no more.

Yackety -yack, yackety -yack. Yackety
-yack, yackety -yack.

Yackety -yack, yackety -yack. Must be an
emergency.

I think they might need me in casualty.
You better check the light bulb.

What's happened?

It's the ladies' swimming club.

They were attacked.

What

do you think?

Black. It's Mr Middleditch's birthday,
not his funeral.

How many dresses have you got there?

Loads. Got from the catalogue.

I only have to pay for what I keep and I
send the rest back.

Wow.

Psychedelic. Not very Mr.

Middleditch.

Now that's fab.

It's like a spring bag. I can't wear
this. I can.

I take it this is hospital business?

Uniform. Ladies, this is not what we pay
you for.

What an old sourpuss.

He's worse than that.

But I bet he's a big old pussycat
underneath.

We're not likely to find out.

If I could.

Yeah? I'll get him to take me out on a
date.

Don't be daft.

I bet you, this dress, that I can get
him to take me out.

Tonight.

You're on.

Oh, well, I was hoping to leave early
this evening. Leaving early?

How long have you been working here?

It's not formal, is it?

Well, Mr Middleditch says it's his
birthday and he'd like to see some of

lads. Less of the old, if you don't
mind. Thank you.

Do you not think it's a bit odd, him
inviting us all round like this? He's

done it before.

I don't think there's an ulterior
motive.

Hello, hello.

Anyway, we'll find out this evening.

If we get there.

Right, well, I think you'd probably
prefer to deal with this on your own,

you?

How did this happen?

It was jellyfish.

There was hundreds of them, like little
blue balloons.

We all got stung. Very painful, then.

Is it poisonous?

No. It'll hurt for a bit, but it's
nothing to worry about.

Well, at least you told me there was an
emergency.

It's not that I can't handle.

Well, don't handle it too much, will
you?

Is there any pressing need for you to be
in here?

Er, checking the lights.

Oh, I think we can all see clearly
enough for now.

The emergency like this, then.

Do you want your bulb to blow?

They haven't.

You may leave.

Do you need a hand with anything else?

I don't.

Oh, quick.

Let's drop her.

Okay.

Let me take a look.

She's my sister. What's wrong? She's in
an epileptic shock. Let's get her onto

her bed.

Is she going to be all right?

Do you need a hand, love?

I keep getting me wires cropped.

I can never understand why they need
two.

Why can't the electricity just go down
one of them? Give it to me.

I've been a ship's engineer for 30
years.

Luria, are you a patient?

Me? No.

I'm here to see Jack Bell.

I'll let him know you're here.

Sir. Oh, Alan.

He'll find him for you.

You work with Tinker?

Who? Oh, sorry.

Jack.

At sea we call him Tinker.

Tinker Bell?

My name's Duncan Crosby, but you can
call me Bing.

Pleased to meet you.

I'm just Alan. Hey, Lucy.

I think you might be able to do me a
favour.

I'll be back in a minute.

What's your name?

Lucy. Lucy, your body's reacted very
badly to the jellyfish thing. It's what

call anaphylaxis.

I can't breathe.

OK, let's get some oxygen over here,
please. Well, that's sometimes a

to the sting. It's rather like, well, an
aspirator.

I'm going to give you an injection,
which should help.

Let's set up a saline drip and check her
blood pressure, too.

OK.

Any problems with any of the others,
Major?

No, they seem to have calmed down a
little.

Do any of these losses need a lift home?

Looking for someone?

You? What can I do for you?

Will you take me out tonight?

I beg your pardon?

I know you want to, and maybe you think
that you shouldn't ask me or something.

It's out of the question. You think
you're too old, but you're not.

That's very kind of you, but I can think
of a long list of other reasons why

it's a very bad idea.

I think it'll be gear.

Fab.

Fun.

Look,

if you change your mind, I'll be by the
phone box at six.

Right, that's been done for this week.
I'm off.

Wait a minute.

What? There's a deceased patient in
Milner Sidewalk. Go to the mortuary.

Sorry.

God rest his soul. Bet he could have
popped his clogs half an hour earlier.

have taken up valuable drinking time. It
always seems that.

Don't speak ill of the dead, eh?

Did you see that?

What? It moved.

Don't be daft. What if he's not dead?
What if it's your old mate, Bing?

Dirty, rotten so -and -so. What's he
doing here? Are you on surely?

I've come to buy me a muck or a dink.
Come on, then. Hey, you get this stowed

and we'll see you down the pub later.

Oh, not tonight.

I'm not taking no for an answer.

When me and Bing get together, it's the
night to remember.

I'm one sheet to the window already.

Go on, then.

Sorry. Were you planning to do a word
round before we go to the party this

evening? Oh, cool.

I was just trying to snatch 40 winks
before we went.

It's been a busy day, all right.

Come on, we're late.

What do you think?

Very nice.

Are you sure?

Yeah. Or should I say no? I can never
tell.

I think I'll wear the other one anyway.

Did you get that mixer working?

Yeah, I'll make you a milkshake. Oh, not
for me.

Go on, line your stomach for this
evening.

You'll need it if you're going out with
Uncle Jack and his mate.

Two old blokes, not much of a Friday
night, is it? And I'm not sure about

Duncan. Bing, you mean?

Whatever he's called. Right, this is my
first milkshake ever.

Ready?

Go on, then.

I'll get a towel.

What am I going to wear now?

Now I'm going to pay for all these
frocks.

Whoops. What happened to you?

I've ruined all the dresses.

Do you want this one back?

No, I couldn't.

Are you really going out with him?

We'll see, won't we?

Look, I've got loads of dresses in my
room. Just go and take one of those if

want.

we were leaving at six.

I did remind her.

Perhaps there's been some sort of hitch.
I could go and find out.

No, this is very nice.

I do like to be punctual.

Nathan's on her way. I think her watch
stopped.

Right, you'd better get aboard.

Enjoy yourself.

Thank you. Where are you going?

No special.

I want to spend my life with a girl like
me.

So very good.

That's up to you, isn't it?

Oh, Gordon, how lovely to see you.
Hello.

Where's the birthday boy? Fussing over
the table settings.

I don't know how you put up with him at
the hospital for all those years. It's

driving me potty having him around the
house all day.

Let me take your coat.

Thank you.

Is this a special birthday? Yes.

But I didn't tell you that. Do go
through. Come in, come in, come in.

Just family and a few friends. I'm sure
you know everyone.

Happy birthday, Mr. Middleton. Oh, thank
you.

I gather you've had rather a busy day. I
thought we had an agreement that you'd

at least let them have a drink before
cross -examining them about the

We're as bad as he is, really.

Don't encourage him.

Oh, thank you.

Now tell me, how are those lovely
children of yours?

Thank you.

I hope you like Italian food.

It's my favourite.

Good.

So before we go any further, perhaps you
could tell me what you're up to.

How do you mean?

You know exactly what I mean.

It's a bet.

Lizzie said that if I got you to take me
out on a date, she'd let me have this

dress. Well, it's a nice dress.

Was getting through the door enough, or
do you have to actually eat the meal as

well? Well, I'll eat if you will.

I will.

Yummy. Breadsticks.

So how come you're not at this big party
this evening?

I wasn't invited.

Shall I order for you?

Why?

I'll have the antipasti and the veal
marsala with a side salad.

And I'll have the spaghetti and a steak
and a bottle of Liebfrau Milch, please.

You can't drink Liebfrau Milch with
steak.

No. Well, I was thinking of you.

Then I'll choose.

The Chianti, please.

Who knows that you and me are out this
evening?

Only Lizzie.

And if you're worried, I'll just tell
her that you stood me up.

No one else must know.

This really isn't such a good idea, you
know.

And that is what makes it such fun.

We're both being very naughty.

Perfect.

Thank you.

It's all right. I've warmed the fire
again.

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday, dear.

Thank you all very, very much.

It's been wonderful having you all here
this evening.

Hasn't it, my darling? Indeed it has.

You know, I did think that when my
husband retired that he might spend a

less time worrying about the royal and
just possibly a little more time with

But that's not the T .J. Middleditch we
all know and love.

We have thought long and hard about this
and we've decided...

that the best possible gift that he
could have on this special birthday is

knowledge that the future of the royal
is secure.

So, we have a birthday gift for all of
you.

We're not expecting any more gifts.

Excuse me. To be continued.

Did you know about this? It's a complete
surprise to me.

Do you think it's the special care baby
unit? You did say think about it, didn't

you? Well, we'll find out in a minute,
won't we?

Apparently, there has been a crash down
the road.

Right, well, my bag's in the car. I'll
go and take a look.

I'll come with you.

Rio de Janeiro.

Don't remind me.

Best move you'd ever made, you know.

Blowing that boiler up on that old soft.
Hey, how was you?

Stuck there for three weeks.

With nothing but Cuban rum, Argentine
steak and Brazilian beans.

I told you that you never had it so
good. Never had it so often.

What do you call that?

Oh, it's cola. I've got my scooter.

Oh, get yourself a man's drink, you big
girl's blouse.

All right.

Have you ever been to sea?

I'm a man's ferry.

You're surrounded by landlubbers and
teetotallers.

I'm not being funny.

The life path that you buy in a place
like this, you should be out there

grabbing it with both hands because
you're a long time dead, you know.

Yeah, I suppose you are. Right, I'm off.

Did he ever tell you about Valletta? Oh.

You know the thing about a girl in every
part.

It was two in Valletta.

And it was cousins, you know.

A fair lot of help you were. Another
time. I'll see you on Monday. Yep, see

Cheers.

What are you doing there, big?

Come to see me, old monkey.

I'm touched.

What else?

For you.

What is it?

I've got you a job.

Hello, this is the right direction.
We've been up the hill.

Help!

What's that? Help, we need help!

We're both doctors.

Can you tell us what's happened here,
please?

We just come back from the seaside. The
bus has gone over.

Many on board?

25, 30, nearly all on the top deck.

Look, there's a large house about 100
yards down the road. Go there and tell

them what's happened. Give them as much
information as you can. We'll make a

start here. No, I can't go.

My brother's in there somewhere.

Doggy man, we need more help.

Take this.

She seems much better.

I won't wake her.

Really came to see you.

Any chance of grabbing a coffee break?

Sorry. My mum won't just now.

Later, maybe.

I'm on call tonight.

Doctor, just got a message. There's a
big emergency coming in and it's not

in bikinis this time. Thanks. I'll get
down to casualty.

Might be some time later.

I'm sorry.

This man is obviously badly injured. You
shouldn't have moved him.

Hold on, matey. I'm in charge here. You
don't give me orders.

I can't when you obviously don't know
what you're doing.

Who do you think you are? I'm a doctor.

Now, will you please let me help?

What's his man's name? Devon. But we
call him Clotted at the garage, like

Clotted Cream.

You'll need to get a tinker, the old
crew.

I need to think about it.

They're all yours, aren't they?

There, please.

It sucks the life out of you. There's
still a big wide well out there.

And it shouldn't take me.

I don't want to stick home.

So where are you stopping tonight?

I was hoping you could fix me up. Well,
I invite you back home, but you know the

missus.

Blotted and copied by dad, isn't he?

You could say that.

Tell you the one good thing about
working in a hospital.

Nothing.

It's more than my life's worth.

No, I was going to say, we've got beds.

Take them back to the house.

Goodness. There are more people trapped
inside the bus.

I'll take them.

All right, how are we going to organise
this?

Well, Sister Bridget and I can manage
this walking wounded. We'll pass the

seriously injured on to you.

Any idea what happened?

It's worked, darling.

We'll pass the garage and leave.

Drivers, Clippies and their families.

They're on their way back from the
seaside.

As it looks?

Every bit.

Devin? Devin, can you hear me? I need to
examine you.

What's happening?

It's clotted. He's not too clever.

His name is Devon. Keep your head on.

Look, how did this happen?

It was an accident. I was driving.

It was a blowout. I couldn't keep the
bus on the road.

But what about Devon?

He was up by the cab bed in my ear, as
per usual.

He fell on top of me. Probably made it
worse.

If he'd been sitting down, none of this
would have happened.

So you're going to blame him?

I don't like that at all, young man.

And by the looks of things, your
brother's going to be on sick for quite

while, so you're going to be needing
your job.

Georgie Gill.

All right.

Yeah, we're good as gold, aren't we?

I'll go and see if anybody else needs
help.

I'm Red Steven.

You want to know how, ask me.

I've brought the emergency kit. Do you
want some information now? No, here's

tension pneumothorax.

I'm going to need to release that first.

OK, so we'll leave them close. Stand by.
OK, go.

So, what was that all about?

Nothing. Look, he's definitely going to
be OK.

He's breathing with great difficulty.
Look.

Look, will you just talk to me, will
you, please?

Thank you.

Just sit down here for a minute. I'm
having a feel. Dizzy.

Bobby,

I need some help here.

We need to get her out.

Help me.

All right, we are going to help you. Can
you tell me your name?

Ruby. All right, Ruby.

Where's Reg, my husband?

I've seen him, it's okay.

I can't shift this seat, eh?

I'd help if I could actually see what I
was doing.

Now, hold on.

All right, I'm going to give you an
injection to ease the pain for your

all right?

There we go.

Bobby, be careful, she might have other
injuries. Just be gentle, please.

What's happened to her?

She's trapped. Can you keep back,
please?

She's my wife.

I'll get you out of here, love.

Try now. OK.

Gently.

I'm sorry, Lois.

Madam?

Not quite to the door.

I do have my reputation to think of.

Yes, speaking of which...

The fewer people that know about this
evening, the better.

Such an old fuddy -duddy.

Yeah. Yeah, I probably am.

Thank you for inviting me out.

I'm really glad that you won your bet.

It wasn't just a bet.

It's been a nice change for me.

You have no idea how boring 20 -year
-old boys can be.

I think I do. I used to be one once.

A long time ago.

Good night.

Thank you.

Thank you.

For a lovely evening.

Was that for a bit, too?

No.

That was for me.

Good night.

Now, this is the best room in the
hospital.

How come it's empty?

There's no private patients at the
weekend.

Jeez!

Oh,

that was a great night out.

Mr Rose?

Um, he's lost a lot of blood. Compound
fractures to both lower legs, possible

chest and internal injuries.

Get Dr. Burnett to assess her, x -ray
her, cross -match her blood for

transfusion. I'll get there as soon as I
can. Right.

I would drive it, Doc, remember?

You were the only one awake downstairs
apart from Clotted.

He would up by the cab talking to me.

This lady, Mrs. Oatridge, needs to get
to the Royal. Keep her under

She's a nasty bang to the head.

She can go on the next ambulance.

Come on, Mrs. Ingrid.

And her daughter, too.

Where's Coco?

Who's Coco?

My dog. Mum, where is he?

You had him?

No, he was downstairs with you.

Your mum needs to get to the hospital.

I want Coco.

We'll find him, I promise.

Come on.

You don't belong here, Tinker. You're a
tar.

Not anymore.

I don't even have a passport.

Get a new one.

It's the message as well.

I never used to stop you before.

Drove you to it, my life.

Come on, man.

You leave it much longer, you'll be too
old.

Hey, you got any more of this?

In the locker.

Mind you, be duty free from that one.

You're going to be OK now.

You wanted to see me? Yes, I put in a
temporary chest drain attached to a

Heimlich valve because he's lost an
awful lot of blood. Looks to me like a

flailed chest.

His fractured ribs seem to have
punctured his lungs, very possibly his

too. Not helped by the fact that someone
dragged him out of that bus before I

could get to him. Damn fool thing to do,
could have cost him his life.

I take it this is the driver?

Certainly not, although with injuries
like that, you'd have thought he was.

Right, I'll get back and operate
immediately.

Okay.

You go, Chuck.

I've called in everyone from the nurse's
room. Have you any idea how many

patients we can expect?

Well, there were at least 25 people on
the bus, and half of those are walking

wounded. All right, I'll see how many
beds we've got free. You go here, quick.

Your wife gave you the message, then.

Something about a spot of overtime.

Not exactly, no. We have an emergency.
Can you get the extra beds at the

and also unlock the private wing? We're
going to put some patients in there.

Hi, Miss Carnegie.

Hi.

Straight to casualty, please.

Right, let's get her through. She needs
to be x -rayed. Okay, cross my six years

and get me some saline. Susie, can you
deal with Mrs. Statham, please? Mrs.

Statham. Okay, I'm going to try and find
some work for you. It's a bit busy in

here.

Give us a minute.

Ruby, she looks bad.

She is.

How about you?

I'll survive.

All Joanne's worried about is that
blessed dog.

So she'll think so.

Right, lucky for us.

What are we going to do?

You don't have to do anything, doll.

It's all under control as long as nobody
rocks the boat.

I'll make sure everybody knows.

This isn't right.

It is.

I'm doing what's best for everybody.

Stoked in chest, major injuries,
critical condition. I want him in

He's got your pulse.

He's not breathing. How long's it been?

A couple of minutes.

Can't you do something?

We can't have CPR because of his broken
ribs.

His pupils are fake and dilated.

We've lost him.

No.

No, you can't. I'm sorry.

But with these injuries... I'm sorry.

Keep to road.

Dr Weatherill has another patient
waiting to come to the operating

best you scrub up.

Thank you.

No, don't.

Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. Walker.

Would you like a moment?

You're always there to keep your head
down.

Ignore them and turn the other cheek.

Do you want me to do that now?

Do you?

I've got to move you.

Don't make me around. I'm serious.

Who's that, Jack?

Him? I don't have a name. From the bus
crash, though, isn't he?

Yeah. He's not too well.

Sorry, Pete.

Did you get those other beds out of
storage?

I'm on my way. Good. Pop another two in
here, will you?

Come.

Thank you.

Right, let's sort our legs out.

We've stopped the bleeding, so that
should give her a fighting chance.

There seems to be spinal damage.

She has a fractured dislocation of D11
and D12.

There's every chance she may be
paralysed from the waist down.

Not a good day's work.

Hey, stay down!

Come here!

Take your hands off me!

drive the bus.

Stop it.

What on earth is going on?

Stop it.

We've been at an old reef. I just want
to know the truth.

I told you.

Ask anyone.

I was driving the bus.

Hold on.

He attacked me.

He also is an animal.

Someone call the police.

Yes, you call the police.

What's happened to your coat?

Dunno. I was helping out the casualty.

The blood?

Didn't notice it, eh?

I must be getting my sea legs, or
whatever they call it, in hospital.

Nights like this, when you can make a
difference, make this job worth it. You

might be right.

You heard what happened?

Yes. Right, let's see what the damage
is. Take a shot of this.

A few years ago, they wouldn't let the
fittest come on the day trip.

I changed that.

This is the thanks I get.

Right.

No pain?

No tenderness?

Sound as a bell.

Hmm.

That's a bit odd.

You see, the driver's seat was rammed
right against the steering wheel.

The driver would have hit it pretty
hard.

I just bounced back, mate.

You weren't driving the bus, were you?

Here we go again.

The driver of that bus would have been
seriously injured.

Like Devon Walcott was.

Listen, one, Devon didn't drive on the
roads, never.

Two, you ask anyone on the bus, they'll
tell you it was me behind the wheel. And

three, this is none of your business.

You keep your nose out.

But I can't believe he'd press charges
with you losing your brother like that.

You don't know, Reg.

Whatever happens, I'll lose my job.

He'll make sure of that.

Why did you call him a murderer?

He made Devon drive that bus.

That's the only explanation.

This isn't just you settling a grudge.
Yes, I have a grudge.

But this isn't about that.

You should tell the police.

Yes, I'll do that.

You don't believe me?

And neither will they.

Takes people in different ways, doesn't
it?

Well, I don't know about you, but before
I do anything else, I could do with a

cup of tea.

I'll make one for you.

Perhaps you could make it.

I act very little at the party, and I've
been on my feet ever since. It's just a

dilly spell.

That's one explanation.

I don't want any fuss.

I won't say a word. On the strict
understanding, you consult your doctor

tell him exactly what happened.

I will.

Good. This hospital needs you in the
best of health.

Perhaps now more than ever.

Bing, you've got to go.

Jemima! I'm eating my breakfast.

I could lose my job if they found out I
gave you this bed.

Listen, this time next month, you'll be
second engineer on a cruise ship heading

for the sun.

Tell them to stop the job.

I brought you a cup of tea.

Sugar?

I'm sweet enough without.

How long do you give it?

What? What, the two of us?

Alone together.

Can't last.

Can I ask you something?

What? It doesn't matter.

You know that bird that was in here
yesterday evening?

Which one?

Monday, was it?

Forget about it. She's got a boyfriend
already.

He's six foot two and plays rugby league
for OKR. Yeah, he'd use you to practice

up and under.

She hasn't got a sister, has she?

And a bosset.

I'd just say hello.

Stigston.

How about my bite?

Fun, wasn't it?

Yeah, but maybe not such a good idea.

What's the problem?

Consenting adults and all that.

I think you know what the problem is.

Look, don't worry.

No -one will ever know.

Susie, good morning.

Where were you going last night?

Nowhere. Actually, I was helping in
casualty, mainly. You saw me.

Was there anything else?

I know it's been a long night, but you
really should tidy that cap.

Yes, Rachel.

You can't stay here. Keep your head on.

I don't want to get the sack. I can't
afford to.

What about the leeward stand?

I'm sorry. No.

I can't do it.

This is the only patient not accounted
for, Matron.

Excuse me, sir. What is your name,
please?

It's Duncan Crosby.

And may I say what a lovely hospital
you've got here.

You're not on my list.

Oh, I'm sorry about that, darling.

Would you like me phone number or not?

You say that you were on the bus.

He was.

One of the first to come in. So why do
none of the other passengers know

anything about you? Who are you, really?

I'm a ship's engineer.

Then what are you doing here?

Doctor Whitby last night had to get to
Leeds, jumped on the first bus that he

saw. Which wasn't in service?

Tell you the truth, neither was I, cos
I'd taken a drink or three. Most of the

others had as well.

I hopped on board, nobody seen that
bothered.

Had the doctor seen you?

No, not yet, no.

I can't stay. You just find me my
trousers and I'll be gone.

Wouldn't want to cause anyone any
trouble.

Come in.

The police have been taking statements.

Everyone on the bus said that Reg
Stetham was driving. Well, that's a

You're convinced that it was Devon
Walcott?

Well, that's what the medical evidence
suggests.

What a point.

I believe Devon's brother.

You know that he was arrested for
assaulting Stetham?

Yes, I heard.

The trouble is...

He's frightened of Statham.

They all are.

Well, it's not really our problem, is
it?

Well, that depends on how you look at
it.

Mrs Statham, I've been speaking to my
orthopaedic and neurological colleagues

Ashfordly General.

We'll be moving you across to their
spinal unit.

I want to go home.

You will, love.

Listen to the doctor.

You received some very serious injuries
in the crash.

But we'll get through this.

What happened last night?

I don't remember.

We were on the bus.

It was an accident.

Mrs Statham, I'm afraid you may lose the
use of your legs.

And now I'm going to be in a wheelchair.

If I could turn the clock back.

I'm sorry.

Last night you were that close to saying
yes.

That was last night.

So what happened?

Something someone said.

What?

Look, if I tell you, you think I'm being
soft. Oh, go on.

A seashell.

What was it, a mermaid?

A little lad in casualty.

He had cuts all over his arms and face.

He gave me this.

He said, thank you for looking after
him. Ah, all right. I'm soft, but that's

why I want to work here.

It means something.

It won't last.

The sea is in your blood.

You can't kid a kidder.

You're late.

And counting the overtime.

Where's Bing going?

On his way to Southampton. First
engineer on a cruise ship.

That's her life, eh?

Isn't it, Jack?

Lucky son, sir.

I've got a confession.

I didn't really go out on a date with Mr
Carnegie last night, so you'd better

have this back.

He gave me a lift to the nurse's home
and that hardly counts as a date.

I can't send this back. It's been worn.

I'll buy it from him. And the other ones
as well.

You can't do that.

Mummy sent a cheque.

And do me a favour.

Don't tell anyone about the silly bets.

I'd be so embarrassed.

Morning. If you're looking for Mr
Middlebeach, he's in with Maitre. Oh,

Lizzie, but I've got an errand to run.

Has Mr Rose spoken to you?

Why, should he have?

I thought he might have told you that I
wasn't well last night.

I don't know why I'm being so sensitive
about it. It's just that, well...

Things have changed.

There's no one I can talk to now, not
really.

You could always phone me.

You might not want to hear what I have
to say.

I don't relish working here.

Not like I used to.

I worry so much more and I get far less
done. And then there's Susie.

I really shouldn't bore you with all
this.

Is there anything I can do?

No, I'm afraid there isn't.

I did have another reason for coming in
this morning.

Some unfinished business.

There's someone here to see Joanne.

Hello. I'm Mrs Middleditch. We live near
where your bus crashed.

We had a visitor this morning. He was
sniffing around our dustbin.

We don't often get recoveries like that.
That's our Joanne.

Thank you so much. Oh, pleasure,
pleasure.

It's a very naughty dog, but it's your
fault. You and Mr Statham said you'd

after him.

I thought Mr Statham was driving the
bus.

He was.

Mum?

Joanne.

It's very important that you tell us the
truth.

Who was driving last night?

You can tell us, Joanne.

Are you expecting her to lie for you?

Devon was driving.

And where was Reg?

With me.

On the back seat.

He got Devon to drive and I sent Joanne
up there.

I'm sorry.

No. It's talking private.

What are you doing here? The police gave
me bail.

No fault.

It wasn't my fault. None of this.

I've been talking to Beryl Oatridge and
her daughter.

The little girl saw the two of you and
she told the truth.

You persuaded Devon to drive that bus so
you could sit on the back seat with

Beryl.

He could have said no.

No, he could have, George.

He knew what happened to people who say
no to you.

I wish he had.

Because now Devon is dead.

And Ruby?

Well, she's as good as.

Have you told her?

That's my business.

Not anymore.

See, everyone knew the truth about you.

That you're a bully, a liar and a cheat.

It's just no one ever said it.

Well, she's going to find out now.

It was supposed to be a bit of fun, a
day out.

Beryl and me, what's the harm in that?

The police are here.

When you're ready.

How do you get it over with, then?

You got what you came for.

Thank you, Doctor, for everything you've
done for me and my brother.

As I was saying, we want the Royal to
continue to exist as the same sort of

hospital, not just for months or years,
but decades to come.

But we know that it will have to change
with the times, so we've talked it over

and agreed that... The best possible way
to do this is to give the money to make

the necessary changes.

So, here you are.

Matron, please.

Oh, my.

£200 ,000.

But there is one condition.

The money is to be spent entirely at the
discretion of the senior medical and

nursing staff. In other words, Gordon,
Jill.

And you, Matron.

All right?

You get there better.

Do you want to get a coffee?

No, I just want to go to bed.

Can't believe I said that.

Coffee tomorrow?

I'm on call.

And I'm working with you again.

We're pretty useless at this dating
business, aren't we?

Well, like my school report used to say,
must try harder.

Let's do that.
