Worms to catch? 19 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,790 - I couldn't sleep, so I thought I'd get a head start. - Snap. 20 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,630 Great minds, et cetera!

You can save on rent. 27 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,130 What happened to him? 28 00:02:59,180 --> 00:03:01,750 Tourist.

Steel trap. 32 00:03:09,780 --> 00:03:13,510 In that case, how about a new challenge -- your first solo night shift? 33 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,150 - Unless you have other plans. - Tragically, I'm all yours. 34 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,710 Good!

I've never known anything like this. 41 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,110 Heat is simply a state of mind. 42 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,030 The human body is perfectly adapted to deal with it. 43 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,350 If you wish to be cool, you simply have to believe. 44 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,590 Clearly my faith is lacking. 45 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,510 So, Dr Varma aside, we shall all just have to cope -- 46 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:26,270 although we're low on IV fluids, I think. 47 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,470 - Sister? - Sorry. New supplies were ordered yesterday. 48 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,750 - I can chase them this morning. - Please do. 49 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,990 And finally, Dr Walker will complete our outstanding home visit. 50 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,070 There's been an urgent request from the Mathew farm. 51 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,030 - It's about 20 miles up in the hills. - Is that prudent, 52 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,190 sending her alone? Murali Mathew can be difficult. 53 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,790 She needs to be able to handle our most challenging patients -- 54 00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:54,800 - unless you don't feel you're up to it. - I'm sure I can handle him. 55 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,910 Come this way. Make way for the wheelchair, thank you! 56 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,000 Not now. Female ward!

I prefer something I can rely on. 69 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,190 - Call me when it breaks down in the middle of nowhere. - It won't. 70 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,870 - I don't need rescuing. - I'm not rescuing you. 71 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,750 I just want to be the first to know when it happens. 72 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,230 OK! 73 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,670 Your mother has been severely affected by the heat. 74 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,990 She's critically dehydrated, and I suspect her kidneys are failing. 75 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,030 How old is she? 76 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,070 99 years, Doctor. 77 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,150 We'll help her as best we can, 78 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,590 but in circumstances like these, there's not much we can do. 79 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,550 Oh, please, Dr Fonseca! We've travelled many miles in this heat 80 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,110 for your help. Only you can save her. 81 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:56,030 I understand, but sometimes a dignified death in your own bed -- 82 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,830 My mother has seen such things in her life. 83 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,670 Do you know she touched Mahatma Gandhi's dhoti? Ask her! 84 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:08,070 She'll tell you. Still everything is clear, like yesterday. 85 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,320 And these are her wishes too, are they? 86 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,270 Of course. She wants to live. 87 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,830 On this she's very clear. 88 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:18,880 So am I. 89 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,710 People should listen to reason. Suddenly every patient and their wife 90 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,870 thinks they're a doctor. I blame Google. 91 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,150 Sometimes it takes a little while for reality to sink in. 92 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:37,480 Well, let's hope it doesn't take too long, for everyone's sake. 93 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,710 - Is everything all right? - Of course. Why? 94 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,800 It's usually me getting irritated by the patients. 95 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,750 My apologies, Dr Fonseca. 96 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,920 It must be the heat beginning to get to me. 97 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,760 OK. Hello. Oh! Hey, give that back! 98 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,670 Give me that. Don't touch that. 99 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,930 ~ Jasprit Mathew? 100 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,430 You!

It's really not too bad. 109 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,870 - See? The boy's fine. - Your son's heart is racing, 110 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,750 - and he has a temperature. - Then, treat him, 111 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,910 and let him get back to work. The crops must come in today. 112 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:50,390 - They're dying in this heat. - I think your son has appendicitis. 113 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,870 It could already be ruptured. I need to get him to hospital. 114 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,670 Enough of this now. See, you've seen the doctor. 115 00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,880 - Stop this nonsense and get up. - Don't touch him. He's sick! 116 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,470 I need to treat your son. He needs antibiotics into his veins, 117 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,350 maybe surgery. He needs to get to hospital fast. 118 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,110 What are you -- a girl of 15 or 16? 119 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,950 How dare you defy me? Now get out of my house, 120 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,710 - or you will get a taste of this! - Papa... 121 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,560 I'm not going anywhere. 122 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,710 I need an ambulance to the Mathew farm immediately. 123 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,200 I've got a septic patient with acute appendicitis. 124 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,190 Well, where the hell is AJ? 125 00:10:36,740 --> 00:10:37,750 Not again! 126 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,150 Speeding, third offence!

Take off that uniform. 148 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,790 - This is ridiculous! - Yes. - What am I supposed to do now? 149 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,390 - You are supposed to do this. - You're gonna make me an orderly?! 150 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,030 That's right. You'll report to Sister Mari, 151 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,950 and when she says jump, you'll ask how bloody high. 152 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,790 - Dr Fonseca, please! - Sorry! This is out of my hands. 153 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,230 But it does seem like an excellent idea. 154 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,440 I'm rather ashamed I didn't think of it myself. 155 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:44,480 Fine! 156 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,670 The pain seems better. 157 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,390 He's had morphine and a litre of saline. 158 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,310 And his belly is soft. 159 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,030 It's probably just mesenteric adenitis. 160 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,310 Now, your son has a mild viral infection. 161 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,310 It has affected the lymph nodes in his belly, 162 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,550 and he should make a full recovery. 163 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,750 Finally, a real doctor has seen him! 164 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:24,070 I don't agree. He had all the signs of appendicitis -- fever... 165 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,870 Quiet! The doctor has seen him now! 166 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:31,240 Er, Dr Walker? 167 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,990 - You asked me for my opinion. - No. I asked for your help. 168 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,550 I'm a more experienced surgical colleague. 169 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,150 It could still be an appendix. The morphine could mask the pain. 170 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,710 - Highly unlikely. - But possible. He could die. 171 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:52,310 That is exactly the kind of decision a surgeon makes every day. 172 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,560 - It's not nothing to -- - If you can't handle that pressure... 173 00:13:56,560 --> 00:13:59,760 - What? - OK. Let's ask Lydia. 174 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,550 I agree with Dr Varma. 175 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,030 It's probably just mesenteric adenitis. 176 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,590 But we can't take any chances, 177 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:13,350 not when you live 20 miles past the back of beyond. 178 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,520 The appendix comes out today. 179 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,270 In fact, it's a perfect teaching case for Dr Walker. 180 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,830 It's about time you tried your hand at surgery. 181 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,400 And I'm sure you'll be delighted to assist. 182 00:14:43,540 --> 00:14:47,020 It's just a consent form to say that you agree to us operating. 183 00:14:51,060 --> 00:14:53,530 If you like, I can read it out for you. 184 00:14:53,580 --> 00:14:57,130 Er, thank you for the offer.

Of course. 187 00:15:02,620 --> 00:15:05,140 I think you are blushing. 188 00:15:06,140 --> 00:15:08,850 Or maybe it is just the heat. 189 00:15:08,900 --> 00:15:11,700 Definitely blushing.
