Gabriel (voiceover):
When I first met Terry,

he was hobbling
white car mechanic

who was dropping his
spanners more often than normal.

Over the next few years,
the meds stopped working

and the Parkinson's got worse.

And then he wasn't a
car mechanic anymore.

A year after that, he wasn't
happily married either.

There are very few miracles
left in this seen-it-all world.

But today, with luck, you're
going to witness one of them.

[Music playing]

How ya doing, Terry?

Top, yeah.

You?

I'm good.

We're a good team.

You, me, sat.

Nav.

Keep telling me
if you're feeling

any tingling or numbness, ok?

All right, doc.

Gabriel: Right, just going
to switch on the current

and see what we've got.

[Electrical noise]

Huhn.

Daniel: Vital signs are good.

Terry?

Terry.

You ok?

Terry?

Course I am.

I'm top.

What'd you bloody think?

It stopped.

The shaking stopped.

You know what?

I just love the miracle days.

[Music playing]

[Theme music]

[Music playing]

Jenny bremner,
good to have you back.

Yes, good to be back, alistair.

Or should I say, Mr. Gillespie?

I know you've been elevated
to, what's it called again?

Uh, head of clinical services.

Acting head, yes, that's it.

No, head.

Well, as long as we don't get
in each other's way, I'm sure

it will be a
fascinating interlude.

More ambitious than
an interlude, Jenny.

How does the old saying go?

A change is going to come.

- Hi.
- Hello.

Great to see you.

Yes, you too.

So, photos?

I'm not curious about your
life outside of the hospital,

miss witney, and I don't
expect to see curiosity

from you regarding mine.

Ah, Jenny bremner, you
made it to the other side.

I can barely smell
the baby sick.

Thank you.

How are you handling Gillespie?

I give the appearance
of agreeing

with him while ignoring
everything he says.

We play him like a virgin.

First class pinto movement
on his management balls.

How very male.

What have you done
with my anesthetist?

He's still sleeping.

He can do that at work.

Have you started pilates yet?

Can't be too soon
in my experience.

What?

Is a colleague's
pelvic floor considered

off-limits these days?

Political correctness gone mad.

Can we change the subject?

Why not.

Kitty (voiceover): Paul
herd, 31 years of age.

No previous health problems but
he had a stroke two months ago

and was admitted to
a&e in stockport, royal.

Daniel (voiceover): His scan
at the time showed a bleed

and hints of abnormalities.

His second scan showed
an underlying arteriovenous

malformation,
too big to operate.

So what's he doing here?

Second opinion?

Third, actually.

Two other hospitals already
turned him down for surgery.

So, um, did the other hospitals

explain what an avm is?

Yes.

Tangles of blood in his brain.

Some people can walk
around with an avm forever,

but not once they bleed.

When they bleed it's a bad
sign, and he's had a bleed

and he's had headaches.

Right, good.

Well, you've done
your homework, good.

And did they explain
how they classify them?

Yes, they said that
my scores are good.

They said that the tangle's
too big to operate on.

From what I can see, it
looks borderline, actually.

Well, that's what we think too.

Does this mean that you
can do something about it?

Well, it means I
might be able to, yes.

Have they sent
through the angiogram?

Didn't do one, did they?

No, just a ct scan and an mri.

Ok, so the surgeons
you've seen already clearly

think that an
operation is too risky.

And are you saying the same?

Well, I'm saying I don't know.

Look, it's in here
like a ticking bomb.

And, I don't know, well i...
You can see how we're fixed.

I can't live like this.

Neither of us can.

This... this isn't my story.

You know what I mean?

My story is of a guy who
gets to see his kids grow up.

You're not saying no, are ya?

I'm not saying no.

Well, that's good
enough for me, pal.

I bet you any money, the two
surgeons who said no to him

we're both under 35.

Because?

Because you're
risk-adverse generation that

started with
decaffeinated coffee,

it's been downhill ever since.

Terry, back again.

I was just passing so I thought

I'd come and see everyone.

Say thank you in person again.

Yeah, well, I
mean, you know, all

I did was wriggle an old coat
hanging around your head.

But, uh, well, I appreciate it.

Ok.

Job well done.

Top hat.

How many times has
he visited since his op?

I've lost count.

This is Mr. Stevens,
65-years old.

He's doing well,
still draining a fair bit.

Mostly he misses his food.

But quite bloody now, so
we're keeping the drains

in to be on the safe side.

Ah, good work.

She's an angel, this one.

You do know that, don't you?

Well, I'm uh, glad
you're feeling better.

Angel, smiling patients.

We're going to have to
try to put a stop to that.

Good to have you back.

I was drowning in a sea of joy.

How would you handle Gillespie?

Go in early, go in hard.

Uh, thought so.

Fantastic.

So I'll see you
later, Mr. Stevens.

[Music playing]

Thought you'd already set off?

Oh, hello, you must be daddy.

Uh, you are?

Mary.

Uh, are you taking
Louis to nursery?

No, I'm pretty much
a one-woman nursery.

Well, clearly change of plan.

I will see you later, big fella.

[Music playing]

Say bye, daddy.

Did he not know?

[Music playing]

I've got a strange
woman standing

in my kitchen calling me daddy.

And not in a good way?

We'd arranged a nursery place.

Where is my stranger, springer.

Uh, mainly kiwi au pairs.

Ahh, kiwi au pairs, the
famous Irish greengrocer.

I think you're obsessing
about domestic details in lieu

of sex, we've all been there.

Yeah, many's the
time I've sought

solace in descaling the kettle.

Good morning, everybody.

First things first, some
of you know her already,

but I would like to
introduce our new nurse

specialist, Lizzie clapham.

Hi.

Lizzie is the named
person who will

be responsible for the emotional
and practical needs of neuro

and cardiac surgical patients.

Neuro and cardiac.

Double the job
at half the price.

Which reflects the fact
that Lizzie is multi-talented.

If a nurse is responsible for
our patient's emotional needs,

where does that leave
those doctors who

actually like to talk to them?

We're answering the
questions they don't ask

you because you terrify them.

And what if I don't
terrify my patients?

Does that leave
you out of a job?

Ha, I think my job's safe, love.

I'm willing to bet you
do terrify your patients.

Oh dear.

[Music playing]

Why would two other
hospitals turn him down?

Cowardice.

Look at the scans.

Now, I think it's closer to
a grade 4 than a grade 5.

It could even be borderline 3.

Oh, well, that's a clincher.

You know if Wilson
dares to speak out loud,

we generally listen.

What are the risks?

Bleeding, damage to
surrounding neural tissue,

stroke, hemorrhage.

But you know you
have to remember,

he's already had a
bleed and the next one

will most probably kill him.

Two other surgeons have
already decided it's too risky.

Two surgeons didn't
order an angiogram.

Well, why don't we do that?

Yes, thank you.

It'll help you to
explain to your patient

why we won't be
able to operate either.

What's next up?

Doctor: Intervertebral
disc prolapse.

L4,5...

Sorry, sorry, was this
the inter-department?

Uh, yeah, he moved it earlier.

He sent an email.

No, I couldn't log on.

I'm Lizzie clapham, by the
way, your new nurse specialist.

So, a nanny?

Oh, uh.

That was a bit of a surprise.

Well, I just wanted Louis
to have all the attention

that he'd get if I was there.

Well, not sure anybody
can do that, can they?

But you remember how
anonymous that nursery was?

What with the babies wriggling
around on that mat like...

Like small babies?

What did you think of Mary?

She seems nice.

Did we talk about her?

No, but we are doing
that now, aren't we?

Just a moment.

Jenny, how's it going so far?

Easing yourself back in ok?

Well, I have no intention
of easing myself back in,

and an accurate
timetable might help.

That is what I appreciate
about you, Jenny,

and I always have.

Great.

I've taken you off
the operating roter,

till you get back in the swing.

All this, your new job,
it's a pilot scheme, right?

It's pretend.

I'm not sure why
you're telling me this.

I get that you have
to play the room.

But, you know, now it's just
the two of us, can we please

have a proper conversation
about the avm case.

Um hum.

I don't think we're in the job
of giving people false hope.

And what if the
angiogram proves me right?

It won't make it any less risky,

it won't contradict the
scans he's already had.

I'm sorry to disappoint you.

But you just need to find
the best way to tell him no.

[Music playing]

Come on.

Is there a shortcut for looking
into the clinic timetable?

Oh.

Anything interesting?

Aortic valve replacement
on Mrs. Hellings.

Just taking the
transthoracic echo.

Yeah, all looks
pretty straightforward.

Yeah, I'm sure it is.

I'll write down
step-by-step for you.

Gillespie streamlined
the system.

Right, yes, good.

Thank you.

So we're going to do an
angiogram in the morning.

Oh, so the iron ropes
haven't ruled it out then?

That's great.

Yes, yes it is.

Shall we wait?

No, the best thing
you can do is go home,

get a takeaway on
a nice bottle of red.

Sounds like a plan.

We won't lose our place
in the queue or anything?

No, you won't.

Ok, so we'll see first
thing in the morning, go on.

Come on, gorgeous.

[Music playing]

All I'm saying
is that it's better

to have a surgeon like Gillespie
in charge than some non-medic.

He doesn't have a
problem with you.

Face it, you don't like him
because you don't dazzle him.

Oi, springer. Here, come here.

Not planning on getting
any sleep tonight, are you?

Uh, well, actually...

No, I want some
recent papers on avms.

We need to bombard
Gillespie with data

and you are the man for the job.

Hand-picked.
- Ah.

Mullery, oi.

What do you think makes
him tick, your new boss?

You don't have to answer that.

You have known
Mr. Gillespie longer than I have.

Yeah, he wasn't in charge then.

Does he seem
pirate-crazed to you?

I'm the registrar, people
shout at me all day long,

it's quite hard to single out one
megalomaniac among so many.

Hmm.

So what's it to be?

A pint or domestic bliss?

Neither.

I'm going home.

Think this is the bad bit?

Wait until he grows up
and discovers sarcasm.

[Music playing]

My good boy, yes you are.

We did all right
here, didn't we?

Yes.

Yes, we did.

Isn't that Mary's job?

No salt. They never
remember the no salt thing.

Lawrence: Well,
you don't know that.

Well, just take a
look at Louie's diary.

I wrote three
pages this morning.

She only managed
half a page on what

she did for the rest of the
day, I think that tells me enough.

It was never going
to be easy, you know,

your first day back
and everything.

Well, I uh, I have to do this.

This... this actually makes
it easier, the whole thing.

You understand that, don't you?

Of course, I do.

Of course.

[Music playing]

Is there anything
she doesn't eat?

Well, I don't know, do I?

Ok, ok, stupid question.

Oh, Nick, don't be late.

So, how was it last night?

Silk kimono or sweatpants
and the purr of the breast pump?

Your fervent
interest in our sex life

is beginning to worry me.

Me too.

I need to be reintegrated
into normal society.

Help me.

Sounds ominous.

I'm cooking tonight for
Anna and her new fella.

I need some moral support.

That's very modern of you.

Well, you know, my son
wants to see us all together and I

want to prove that I
don't have a problem

with my ex-wife's new man.

You do have a problem with him.

Yes, but I don't want Anna to
know that because then he'll

know it and he'll have won.

Oh, see ya in there.

Terry.

All right.

What are you doing?

A quick service for Bradley.

You could hear a knockin'.

Look, Terry, you don't
need to do this, you know?

I mean, it's our job
to make you better,

you don't have to
come in and help.

Leave us your keys,
I'll check your filters.

Ah, well, if you don't mind.

No problem.

Morning.

Ah, morning.

I could talk to
him if you'd like.

What and miss out
on a free oil change?

Gotta be kidding me.

Lizzie: How long has he
been coming in for now?

Four months.

Look, you want to try and
work your voodoo on Terry,

be my guest.

Cappuccino with
an Espresso chaser.

Full cardio workout, nice.

Yeah, Monroe's had me
up all night doing his legwork.

He thinks that means
Monroe's going to make

him registrar quicker than me.

Oh yeah, I was
forgetting that you

two were still mere trainees.

I'm not sure as
registrar I should

even be sitting with you.

Well, I doubt
either of you would

be up there if you specialized
in something more challenging.

Andrew: Ooh.

Oi, springer, what
you got for me?

Bye, doctor.

Daniel: Paul has a one in
four chance of a re-bleed

in the next 10 months.

And as we know, a
re-bleed is likely to be fatal.

High risk of epilepsy
and vascular steal.

Ok, Wilson, what can you see?

Frontal avm.

Feeding vessels from the middle
and anterior cerebral arteries.

Springer, now you know
the position, what's your call?

Occlude and isolate
the main feeding arteries,

dissect the avm.

You make it sound so easy.

Wilson, risks?

The release of pressure
causes the hemorrhage

in the adjacent brain.

Cause a hemorrhage
trying to stop a hemorrhage.

[Beeper noise]

Must have a word with god
about his sense of humor.

Rta coming in.

So what will Gillespie
say about the angiogram?

Well, he'll say it's too
risky and he might be right.

Monroe, the patient's
got a ruptured spleen,

so we're going first.

Mr. Gillespie said
it'll take about an hour

to control the bleed.

How do you know the
patient's got in there?

Well, it isn't really a choice
unless we control the bleeding,

then her brain isn't
going to be an issue.

Lizzie: I'm sorry, love.
You can't wait here.

We're going to take you outside.

It's ok, Lizzie, I've got this.

No, I'm just telling
Steve he needs to go...

I've got this, thank you.

Hello, I'm Mr. Monroe,
I'm the neurosurgeon.

How is she?

The main thing is that
she's in the right place

and that she's made it this far.

She's got to live, you
do get that, don't you?

We'll do our best.

I looked up and there she
was, coming towards me.

I never even saw her.

I'm sorry, are you not uh...

Were you driving
a different car?

I hit here, the girl...

The girl in the car.

- You're not a relative?
- Relative?

Ah, you need to wait outside.

Yeah, come on, love.

Come on.

I'm going to take some out.

Springer, where are you?

I need to shout at someone.

Mr. Monroe, what's happening?

Please, are we on or not?

Paul, listen, I've ah...

I've got to go into theater.

I'll come and talk to
when I come outside, ok?

- It's not bad news, is it?
- Promise.

What did he say?

It's they're busy, you know?

I don't mean to bother him.

Come on.

She's going to be
all right, isn't she?

She is going to be all right?

Michelle, come on, love.

I'll show you
where you can wait.

Can you phone the
blood bank again

and ask them how long for
the blood, ffp, and platelets?

Are we getting there?

Ok, splenic artery is tied off.

Her pressure's still dropping.

It's still wet in there, there
must be another bleed

somewhere, Monroe?

Daniel: No.

Ok, let's pack it with swabs
so we can clear that field.

Pupils dilated.

All right, we're going to
have to get to the clot now.

Alistair, that's it.

We're going to have
to start now or else

we're going to lose her.

Can we get some
adrenaline please, now?

And more fluids.

I've got to move all this gear.

[Music playing]

So we'll get you started
on the warfarin today, Mr.

Stevens, all right?

No offense, love, but I'd rather

hear it from a proper surgeon.

Where's smiler?

Well, I think miss
Whitney is shedding

some memes in clinic today.

I'll wait till she's
finished there,

if that's all right with you.

It's fine.

My first weeks back after
I had our John, murder.

Jill, I appreciate your
effort but I am not going

to do the mother and baby talk.

It's just a promise I
made me self, all? Right?

No, it's all right, you
don't have to join in.

But you know at home you've
got a little miracle who smiles

every time he hears your voice.

It's some other woman
who's looking after him, what,

so you can do this?

Which isn't even
want you're good at.

Won't let you near operating
theater and pretend they're

doing you a favor.

You can't even escape
your sulky fella because he

works in the same building.

And when you're lying
in bed with a cabbage leaf

on each nipple, that's when
he decides to make his move.

And I want you to know that I
know what you're going through,

even if you don't.

So I'm giving you this key.

What's it for?

Leena's cupboard.

Go in there and
scream anytime you like.

Nobody will hear ya.

Any screaming on this ward,
you just assume that springer's

taking someone's stitches out.

Bullmarks ready?

Where's the rest the
blood in the fifth, please.

Can we get some fluid
and bring in the crash trolley.

Move over, you're in my way.

Ok, we've got vt
and no heart trace.

Alistair, pulse?

No.

Ok, you both need to
stop what you're doing.

Monroe, chest compressions.

Can we get the
crash pads, please?

Now.

Oxygen away.

Stand back.

[Crash machine noise]

Charging.

Monroe, stay clear.

Shocking.

Charging.

Shocking.

Charging.

Stand clear.

Shocking.

Charging.

Stand clear.

Shocking.

Ok, let's leave it now,
see what we've got.

I've got a pulse.

So have I.

Marvelous.

Ok, Wilson, springer,
time for some real surgery.

[Music playing]

Well done, springer, you
gotta touch that kind of things

while you're still single.

Ah ha, I'm single out of choice.

Oh yeah, I say that too.

Do you want to talk
to her mother first?

If I can get to her
ahead of the patient pixie.

Now that you've seen
my brilliance close up,

I expect you'll want to
back me more readily.

Oh, so an excellent
piece of surgery

means I have to support
every judgment call you make?

No, not every
call just this one.

So we've repaired her injury,
there's no more bleeding,

she's in intensive
care, she's doing well.

I bought her the
car for her 21st.

She didn't want it.

But I thought she
was just saying that.

I bought her the car.

Whatever we do to make our
children safe, you know what?

It doesn't make them safe.

I know.

I know, Lizzie
explained that to me.

Thank you.

Can I go and see her now?

Course you can.

Nice trick.

Setting me up with
the driver like that.

You could almost earn
my grudging respect.

Hey, don't fight
it, it's inevitable.

I'm not here to be arrogant.

Really?

But I do like talking
to my patients

and I'm happy to
listen to them too.

I'm good at it.

So what about Paul?

The avm man.

What about him?

Mr. Gillespie says you might be

finding it difficult telling him
you're not going to operate.

Did he now?

The last avm I tried to
remove, when we got to it,

the thing burst straight away.

It was so much blood, it
soaked through the scrubs.

You know what?

He survived.

He made a full recovery.

So you never know.

You never know.

All the scans in the world
might tell us nothing at all.

Why are you telling me this?

Because I want to go
ahead with the operation.

You can't expect my
backing if it goes wrong.

You do know that?

I never had your backing anyway.

I just want you to be sure you
can live with the consequences.

Of crossing you?

No, of failure.

If Paul dies and you've gone
against every bit of advice,

are you sure you
can live with that?

[Music playing]

Paul, Julie.

I need to talk to
you about the risks.

We've been through
this 1,000 times.

I know about the risks.

I need to believe that.

If I'm going to
do this operation,

I need to believe it.

Ok.

Don't look so worried,
it will be all right.

I think I'm supposed to be
the one that's reassuring you.

You've got craftsman's hands.

What?

My dad was a cabinet
maker, you got hands like his.

Craftsman.

Bad day?

Terrible day.

How can you tell?

Even the back of
your head is scowling.

Can I borrow your
significant other this evening?

I don't know, it depends on what

you want to borrow him for.

Well, I need a man
with good looks,

ready wit, charm, and repartee.

And where does Lawrence fit in?

Ok, bottom line, I need someone

to snicker at my
periodic jokes about

my ex-wife's new boyfriend.

Ah, well, what time
do you want him?

[Doorbell ringing]

Hi, dad.

This is my dad, this is Donna.

And this, surprisingly, is
Lawrence, my dad's mate.

Hey.

And anesthetist.

I always have one on
standby when I'm cooking.

Lawrence: It's very
nice to meet you.

Come in.

Young Arlo is supposed
to Mark the triumph

of the frontal cortex.

In your case, I
sometimes wonder.

Those frontal cortex
cracks, just keep 'em coming.

Are they always like this?

Always.

No wonder you left.

Well, since this is
an awkward moment,

I might as well get my
news in under the wire.

Donna and me are
going to get married.

How do you mean?

We're going to get
married to each other.

Sorry, Larry, I didn't know
you were going to be here.

I know it might seem quite soon.

Oh yeah, very soon.

Have you really
thought about this?

Well, what do your
parents say, Donna?

Well, actually...

Dad, what... what do you think?

Well, I certainly think it's one

way to fill an awkward silence.

I mean, I know
you might be feeling

a bit jaundiced about love right
now, with you being on your own

and everybody else pairing up.

Yeah, I don't think
pity is going to swing

the argument your way, son.

You know what?

Congratulations to both of you.

Yeah, right.

You're right.

Congratulations.

Shall I go out and
get some champagne?

All right, I can do
the champagne.

Good night,
congratulations again.

Hmm.

Well, that was terrible news.

So why did you
pretend it wasn't?

Well, in fairness,
Dave started it.

Do you think she's pregnant?

That'll be it.

Hams to the best
and the brightest,

you know, like
bremner and Shepherd.

We didn't get married
though, did we?

How come?

Dave, hmm?

Isn't it just more likely that
he's idealized marriage?

His parents failed so
he wants to make it work.

With all due respect,
Dave, two things.

First, it's got bugger
all to do with you.

And the second, you're a vet.

What's that got to
do with anything?

I won't be lectured
on parenting skills

from somebody who
sticks a thermometer

up a cats arse for a living.

Fair enough.

But for the record,
it's uh, dogs asses too.

You can't ask Dave to
be part of the conversation

and then insult him when he
says something you disagree with.

Can't I?

That's the cornerstone
of my debating strategy.

I think we should talk
when we've all calmed down

and had a lot less to drink.

Bye, Larry.

Thanks for the meal.

Anytime.

Well, I think that went quite.

Do you think that quite well?

You were a model of restraint.

Shall I open another
bottle of wine?

No, no, no, you go home
and stare at your son

while he's still all potential
and no bad decisions.

Go on home.

[Music playing]

[Baby coughing]

[Baby crying]

Lawrence: Shh, shh, shh.

[Baby crying]

Oh dear.

What's the matter?

Shh, shh.

You look absolutely shattered.

And you don't, which
is sort of miraculous.

Well, I could sleep at
work for all the use I am.

Until Gillespie lets
me back in theater,

I might as well be sleeping.

Well, maybe he's got a point.

No, he doesn't have a point.

That's an idiotic thing to say.

Ok.

He's just trying to
do what he thinks

a clinical manager should do
because he's out of his depth...

I agree with you.

That you think he can be...

Stop.

Sorry.

Take it out on you.

I'm just not very good at this.

What?

Ohh, I know I'm not much fun.

Just finding it hard.

Don't take it
personally, all right?

I won't.

[Music playing]

Hey, Mary.

I'm going now, have a good day.

I'm Jess.

Not Mary.

No, not Mary.

[Music playing]

I see your chat with Terry
has really helped move him on.

Work in progress.

So have you done your playlist?

Yeah, there's ten
hours worth there.

We're going to need it.

Hmm, interesting.

Paul: Ha ha ha.

[Clears throat]

It's Jess now.

Do you want to tell me
what you did with Mary?

Well, i... I just had
my doubts about Mary.

And if I'm going to
stay sane at work

then I can't be having
doubts about the person

looking after our baby.

And you think I'm happy
having doubts about my son?

No, no, no, no.

I just... I just sense that i'm
probably better at the details

than you are.

Do you know what?

I was trying to do
lighthearted but i'm

actually a bit pissed
off that you didn't

discuss it with me first.

So um, anything else
you'd like to ask me,

you know, either of you.

Everybody else turned
me down, told me the risks.

Thing is, I can feel
it getting worse.

You told me the risks too,
but you said you'd help.

So thank you.

I'll see you in theater.

All right.

Are you all right?

Yes, I'm fine.

[Music playing]

If you don't move soon,
then I'll hang a drip off you.

[Music playing]

Hey.

I love you.

Love you.

[Music playing]

[Razor buzzing]

Ok, springer.

Make an incision
along the scalp.

Every 3 centimeters
apply scalp clips

to include the mastoid swabs.

And springer?

Yes?

Take your time, it's
going to be a long day.

[Music playing]

[Coughing]

[Coughing]

You know what, Larry?

This better be good.

Might just be getting
the hang of this.

Patient's been
coughing all morning.

Had a big coughing
fit and blood's

been pouring into
his chest tubes.

- Right, get the chest kit now.
- Shall I call theater?

No, there's no time,
he's bleeding out.

Chest kit now.

On the bad days,
you can remember

the days like this because
they don't come any better.

Come on, let's go, I
will need some blood.

I'll also need a transfusion.

Get out of the way, you clowns.

Let's turn him around.

Let's get him in as
quick as you can.

Now, come on, we're
losing him. Let's go.

Talk about attention seeking.

Only been here five minutes
and she's stealing my thunder.

What happened?

Your patient coughed
himself a bleed.

One the graphs must
have been leaking.

Bremner cracked his
chest, blocked the hole,

and she's taking
him up to theater.

Saved a life and
freed me up a bed.

Win-win, I call it.

Said he felt better as
soon as he woke up,

said he knew straight away.

Sometimes it happens like that.

Well, that's good.

I'm glad you stayed lucky.

Well, there's nothing
wrong with being lucky.

Every operation
I do I need luck.

Yeah, but you trusted your luck

over the judgment of others.

But you got away with it.

As congratulation
speeches go, alistair, this is

proving something of a letdown.

Oh, I'm cautious so that
allows you to take more risks.

I don't think I
want to do that job.

I don't want to play
the straight man so you

can shine all the brighter.

Well, ok.

Thanks.

Was there anything else?

Yes.

[Exhale] I'm afraid
you're going to have

to lose one of your team.

What?

Springer or Wilson.

We can't afford them both
when they become registrars,

you're going to have
to let one of them go.

Have you any idea how
hard it is to get this far?

The work they've put in?

Well, I'm a surgeon so, yes,
would be the answer to that.

You're a general surgeon,
or sort of a surgeon,

to give your official title.

I know you won't
believe this, but, I

fought your corner for this.

In the current climate, you're
lucky not to be losing both.

I haven't had a registrar
since fortune left.

Yeah, but that
doesn't mean you can

have two now to make up for it.

Look, one registrar,
one trainee.

That is the agreed structure.

They are both talented,
dedicated, good hands.

I am not saying that
they both won't go on

to become excellent registrars.

What I'm saying is, they
can both do it at this hospital.

[Music playing]

Hmm, well, I'm sorry.

That's tough.

I'm confused, I
thought Gillespie's

title was largely ceremonial.

Well, me too.

Like the queen, say, or
the manager of Chelsea.

Have you major decision yet?

No, not really.

I mean, springer's brilliant but
annoying because he knows it.

Wilson's brilliant but
annoying because she doesn't.

Hmm, so it doesn't
just come down to who

laughs at your jokes then?

No, although that is
how I chose Shepard.

Ah, me too.

Oh dear, I take it young
Louis isn't sleeping through.

You think you'd try
and control crying.

Oh yeah, well that helps.

But don't cry too, otherwise,
you'll both wake the baby.

Ah ha ha.

[Laughing]

Poor sods.

Oh, they'll be ok.

Why?

What's going on?

Here, I'll tell you
on the way home.

Come on.

I knew that we were going
to smash the operation today.

Um hum, but you didn't
think you'd say anything

because we are so modest.

He's also shy about
giving his opinions.

That's true, actually.

That's the one thing
that people don't know

about me is I'm incredibly shy.

'Cause you hide
it so well behind

the arrogant prick disguise.

[Laughing]

Terry, still here.

I just come to say, I won't
be able to help out anymore.

Oh, really?

Start work Monday.

Ah, that's great.

It's only part-time
like, in a repair shop.

But she said she'd
make a call, and she did.

And by she you mean?

That Lizzie woman,
she's a walking miracle.

Yeah, all right.

I suppose she must be.

[Music - the
cinematic orchestra,

["that home"] Where the
doors are moaning all day long.

Where the stairs are
leaning dusk 'till dawn.

Where the windows
are breathing in the light.

Where the rooms are
a collection of our lives.
