00:30The envelope stuff in lesson in school
00:31Excuse me
00:32Too busy wanking Harvey Thomas at the back of the class
00:35Oops
00:37I think I've ruined that one
00:41Thanks for coming everyone
00:43Welcome to those who are new
00:45If you're a second timer, can't believe you came back
00:48Third timers, you're as mad as me
00:50Wahey!
00:52The Regional Health Authority report will be out soon
00:56And in preparation for the RHA
00:58Des has a few things he'd like us to do
01:00As always, it sounds deathly dull
01:02But give him a go
01:03Thank you, Susan, for that generous introduction
01:06Right, we need to prove four things
01:09One
01:10We need proof that a cluster of women
01:12Who carried babies at the same time
01:14And were affected by this
01:16Exists
01:16Now, the Health Authority report will show that
01:19Two
01:21That there was a reason
01:22Why you were affected
01:24How the toxins from the reclamation
01:26Got into your system
01:27Anglian Water
01:28Currently investigating their supply
01:30Three
01:31We need proof that these toxins
01:33Had a direct impact
01:35On your unborn children
01:37Then four
01:38We need knowledge and negligence
01:41That they could have done more to prevent this
01:43And that they knowingly didn't
01:45We're hoping to get disclosure from the council on that
01:48I want to introduce you to Danny
01:50Who's working with me on this
01:52Hello, Danny
01:53Right, Danny is going to be handing out some forms
01:56Yes, very dull forms for you
01:58Which will be the beginnings of your witness statement
02:00Those statements will be the bedrock
02:03On which we build our case
02:20Chair
02:21I'd like to raise a point of order
02:23If you want to introduce a motion, Sam
02:25You need a second
02:26While the police investigation
02:29Hampered by the fire
02:30Is ongoing
02:31I would like to suggest that the council
02:33Consider suspending contracts
02:35With Rhodes and Miller Construction
02:36Sam, come on now
02:37Look, is this how you're going to do it, Roy?
02:41Be a leader
02:42By silencing anyone who disagrees with you
02:44Because that's not how you said it was going to be
02:46Councillor Hagen, do you have a second there for your motion?
02:49The police investigation has taken 18 months so far
02:53And Rhodes and Miller have been profiteering in all that time
02:56And I think that is an absolute disgrace
02:59Councillor Hagen, sit down
03:00Or I'll have to ask you to leave
03:10Now
03:12Minutes from the development meeting
03:14Councillor Fray, are you ready?
03:16Thank you
03:37Come on, Ted?
03:40Come on, son, find everybody and lose
03:45Look, I just want to talk
03:48Everything I know
03:57You've got to see it
04:07This report was commissioned by Northamptonshire Health Authority
04:10In conjunction with Corby Borough Council
04:13To investigate allegations of a cluster of birth defects
04:17In Corby between 1984 and 1998
04:22Today I can confirm that the epidemiological study found no difference between the rate of children with birth defects born
04:30to mothers in Corby and those in the wider Kettering area
04:34In fact, the figure was slightly lower
04:36Therefore, no cluster was found in Corby
04:43No
04:43Can't be
04:45What are we, a curb check?
04:46If you look in the report
04:47I'm looking around this room and I see mother after mother
04:51Mrs. McIntyre, I understand your frustration but I believe you've been encouraged by your lawyers to look for something that
04:57simply isn't there
04:58Simply isn't there
04:59The findings in the report clearly state that there is
05:02The findings in the report ignore the fucking facts
05:04Okay
05:05Okay
05:06Let's keep this civil
05:07Why don't you take some time to digest what's been written
05:09And if you have any questions
05:11It doesn't need digesting
05:12It's already been digested
05:13And it's a load of shite
05:14All right
05:15Okay
05:17Our fireworks over
05:19Thank you
05:19Settle down
05:20Thank you, thank you
05:22Let's look at this
05:23Come on, love, let's get home
05:24You know, I feel as if I should say something
05:27Say what?
05:28There's no telling some people
05:29Look, they looked at it
05:31And it was nothing
05:32Doctor, please
05:32Loud mouths like Susan McIntyre are always going to give off
05:35But we're not her, are we?
05:36Extensive environmental testing
05:38It's going
05:38What?
05:39There is no evidence that we see pollution in this area to limit people
05:47And thank you, everyone for your patience
05:49Where's Maggie?
05:50Oh, our fellow pulled her away
05:51This is not what any of us were expecting
05:53They're lying
05:54They're lying
05:55And they are
05:56Well, they might be lying but
05:57I doubt it
05:58People are never that deliberately pernicious
06:01I expect it's rather incompetence
06:03But
06:05It is a setback
06:05And what the fuck is pernicious when it's a
06:08Mean
06:09Oh
06:09You disagree?
06:11Well, I have more bad news, I'm afraid
06:14Anglia and Water have come back and
06:16Have produced records which show that there were no unusual
06:19Substances found in the water supply
06:21During the land reclamation
06:22And they're not being mean either
06:26I don't think so
06:28Look
06:31Let's not pretend this isn't disappointing
06:34But there are other avenues that we can explore
06:37What about that talk of a police report? The fire?
06:40The police are investigating corruption
06:43It might be useful but as it's a criminal investigation
06:46We can't get involved
06:47So what do we do, Des?
06:50Er, well
06:52As Danny said
06:54We'll find a way
06:58There's generally a way
07:11Hello
07:12Daddy, daddy
07:12Hello, are you okay?
07:14How are you doing?
07:15Oh, are you okay?
07:17How are you doing?
07:19Ah
07:21Okay
07:27You okay?
07:28Yeah, love?
07:31You still reading that?
07:33Yeah.
07:35I was trying to work out where
07:38Shelby Ann fitted in, but
07:40they used so many words.
07:45Shall I get the tea on then?
07:49I haven't been reading it all day, if that's what you're thinking.
07:59I need her.
08:02We all do.
08:13He's going. Don't you know?
08:15Des is going.
08:16How'd you figure that?
08:17Trust me, I can smell when Amarna's had enough.
08:21Is this a good idea, Susan?
08:25Definitely.
08:25Definitely.
08:27Probably. Maybe.
08:29They're in my pitch now, that.
08:30They're in my pitch, they're following me, come on.
08:42Okay, I'm going to bunk you up.
08:45No!
08:46Come on.
08:47Come on, I'm ready.
08:51Right. Yeah.
08:52Yeah.
08:56You've got a surprisingly muscular heart.
08:59What?
09:01Okay.
09:02Go on then, get the samples.
09:04Oh great, so now I'm doing a burglary without you.
09:07Ah.
09:15Hey.
09:16There's three bottles in there, and some gloves, and a carrier bag so you don't get the rucksack dirty.
09:20It's kind of a school bag, to be honest.
09:23We need to prove to Des there's toxic in there.
09:25Okay.
09:48Message from the council.
09:50They're disclosing.
09:51Saying that all the pieces we requested were unfortunately burnt in the fire.
09:56They'll try their best, though unfortunately their file index was also...
09:59Burnt in the fire?
10:00Mm-hmm.
10:03Who's that?
10:04Lydia Short.
10:05She's got a 16 year old with an upper limb difference.
10:10Good morning.
10:12Even better morning when you see what we've got for you.
10:21Give me a clue.
10:22It's from the reclaimed land behind Electrogen, where Rhodes Miller worked.
10:27Why is it useful?
10:29Because it'll show all the toxic.
10:31Of course it will.
10:32It's from the reclamation site.
10:33We know that's toxic.
10:35What we're trying to understand is whether that toxic water had somehow leaked into the water supply.
10:41Unfortunately for our case it hadn't.
10:44So all this was for nothing?
10:48Haven't got a rash or anything?
10:50No.
10:50But she might want to finish with her.
10:54I...
10:56I appreciate the effort.
10:58Right.
11:03For what?
11:05For everything you did.
11:09I'm surprisingly grateful to be honest.
11:12For...
11:12For me too.
11:14You're giving up?
11:15No, you're giving up.
11:18Am I?
11:19Why?
11:20Because there's no case.
11:23Of course there's a case.
11:27The RHA can't see a cluster.
11:29We can.
11:30We just need to prove it.
11:32Anglian Water says it's not a problem in the water supply, but there must be some other way that it's
11:37gone into your systems.
11:40We had four points to prove.
11:42We've still got four points to prove.
11:45Just this has to be possible.
11:47And I am far from done.
11:50It's supposed to kiss him.
11:52Why do I have to kiss him?
11:53Because he'll be scared if I try and kiss him.
11:54You're more the mirror.
11:55He likes the mirror.
11:56But he needs to kiss me.
11:58Listen, we will find what's happened here.
12:01I promise.
12:13Come in.
12:16Sam.
12:16Right.
12:17Been a while since we had a chance to chat.
12:19Ah, I've been available.
12:20Ah, I know.
12:22This office at each time.
12:24Well, we're here now.
12:25And I would like to raise a concern about the Willowbrook A site.
12:27Sam, it's been decided.
12:29The next election, we need to be renewing candidates.
12:36So who's on that list?
12:41It's the Blair era.
12:43You understand?
12:44They like them young.
12:46I'm sure my time is numbered too.
12:48No, no, you...
12:51My future's not your decision to make, Roy.
12:54That's the decision of my branch.
12:57Maybe your branch has spoken to me.
13:01Maybe...
13:02I'm giving you a chance to get in front of their decision.
13:04No.
13:04As a friend.
13:05No, I can't.
13:07You didn't know this was coming?
13:08Come on, you're not so naive to think this is a grand surprise.
13:12I went to the police about Rhodes and Miller, not you.
13:15It's not about that.
13:16It's about renewal.
13:17I just think you got rid of the wrong people.
13:19And I think if you think about this...
13:20You think, you think, you think.
13:22You ever think you think too much?
13:26Party discipline matters.
13:28If we all just follow our own egos, nothing gets done.
13:31We tow the line and we make the change from within.
13:35I'm never more nervous than when making proposals to the Labour Group
13:37because that's where change happens.
13:43I was a good counsellor.
13:45I was a fucking good counsellor, right?
13:52And now you'll be a good...
13:55Whatever you'll be.
13:58Plenty of time to get that golf in, eh?
14:22No.
14:22You got your eyes on her, have you, Clore?
14:24No.
14:28Go on, Clore.
14:30Tell us which part of her you want to touch first.
14:33You know what?
14:33Law isn't such a good name.
14:35It's Captain Hook, Fipper Fingers, Mr Crab.
14:38I don't know.
14:40But I do know what I should call you.
14:42You twat.
14:43You twat.
14:45You twat.
14:46You twat.
14:47You twat.
14:50You twat.
14:51You twat.
14:51Hey, hey, come on.
14:52Get off the angel now.
14:54Get off.
14:54Keep up.
14:57Can't say I haven't done worse.
14:58But that doesn't mean that I'm not.
15:00I mean cloaking the lad.
15:02Eh?
15:03Bully or not.
15:05Can you not think of something better?
15:07Now you've got yourself suspended.
15:10Though that bitch had my stress.
15:14Come on.
15:15Can you keep up?
15:16Ow.
15:19How long has it been like that?
15:20Not long.
15:22You're supposed to tell me the minute.
15:25Have you been putting your cream on?
15:26Yeah.
15:27And in fact you couldn't mean that the doctor's delay another op.
15:29Do you want your hand better?
15:31This is my hand.
15:32This is it.
15:32This is what it looks like.
15:34And I don't like hospitals and I don't want it.
15:36Not anymore.
15:38I don't want any of it.
15:40Call Dad.
15:42Call Dad.
15:57Call Dad.
15:58Professor Happy?
16:00Yes.
16:00Thanks so much for seeing us.
16:01My name's Des.
16:02This is Danny.
16:03We're working on behalf of a group of parents in Corby and wondered if you have a moment to take
16:06a look at a health authority report that we're investigating and believe to be flawed.
16:13Another blank face, another no.
16:15There must be someone.
16:17We'll prove this report wrong.
16:20What about food?
16:22Beef.
16:23Sorry?
16:24Toxins have entered their system by contaminated beef or maybe vegetables.
16:30Instead of the water and...
16:34Right.
16:36We get soil samples from all the surrounding farms.
16:39We probably first need a sense of what these women ate.
16:42Oh.
16:45On it!
16:49See you all next week.
16:54Dr Parker?
16:55Do you have a minute?
16:56Not my students.
16:57We wondered if you could look at some documents for us.
17:01It's been quite a day.
17:03Can we speak in the morning?
17:04We could do.
17:04It's just we've driven all the way up from Northamptonshire to talk to you tonight.
17:09See me in Newcastle.
17:10Why?
17:11Well, because you never answer your phone or your emails, but also because every other epidemiologist we've spoken to thinks
17:19this report is right and we think they're wrong.
17:26Shall we start at the beginning?
17:28What's the report of?
17:37I'm just in the kitchen. She drives fast on the bicycle.
17:45Oddington's, please.
17:46It's been stolen in Odds.
17:47See if we go, boys.
17:48Yeah?
17:54Lager and a whiskey, Peter.
17:59Drinks are on Pat Miller. Police reporting he lets corruption just in.
18:05No charges being brought.
18:07Well, maybe I'll buy two more drinks then.
18:09I'd like to make a toast.
18:11I'd like to make it to this man.
18:14Pat!
18:16You're an arsehole.
18:18Terrible man.
18:20But you're our arsehole.
18:22Wighten your mouth, boys.
18:23You think you should be celebrating this?
18:28One and a half million documents they looked through.
18:31You know what's there.
18:32One hundred and ten statements.
18:33You know the truth.
18:34You don't want to listen because your friend is going to damage your town.
18:38And the truth is, I already have because you burnt the fucking evidence.
18:43Now hang on.
18:45That's absolute bollocks.
18:49And just so you know, I'm standing independently at the election.
18:53You do what you will.
18:55I'm an anti-corruption ticket.
18:57I'm calling myself the Clean Corby candidate.
18:59Just thought I'd let you know as a friend.
19:02Clean Corby. Fuck it.
19:05You could have litter picking compulsory.
19:07Like, conscription.
19:08Everyone in the town needs to carry a litter picker.
19:11So there can be a little old woman just like you.
19:13Oh, heavy as the head that wears the crown, eh, Roy?
19:18You know you were always a wanker.
19:20But you never used to be a cunt.
19:23You think you're rebuilding this town.
19:25Truth is, you're destroying it.
19:41Hello, I'm Sam Hagen.
19:43I've been a Labour councillor for Corby for the last 20 years.
19:46I'm currently standing as an independent candidate for re-election.
19:50Oh, hello.
19:51My name's Des Collins.
19:52I'm calling from Collins Solicitors.
19:54Looking to speak to Nicholas McDowell about a fetal medicine case.
19:58Anti-corruption.
19:59All this town needs is investment.
20:02No more bloody red tape.
20:05OK, thank you.
20:18This toe here, the tissues are certainly fit enough to make it an excellent candidate.
20:24And the infection will...
20:25The infection will have cleared up before we come to operate.
20:28I hear that, Connor. That's good news.
20:32Let's hope we get some luck this time.
20:44Pizza!
20:49He doesn't want to keep going with the ops.
20:53And what do you think?
20:54I'm just trying to be a good mother.
20:57Don't want him to throw his life away.
20:58This is about his future, you understand?
21:01You don't need two hands for everything.
21:03For the sort of jobs he'll qualify for, two hands will be bloody useful.
21:06Pizza!
21:09Kids, pizza!
21:11How can you do that and I can't...?
21:13Practice.
21:13Ah.
21:16Police report came out.
21:18Sorry.
21:29We've seen...
21:30Another cover-up.
21:32I'm not rigging about that, no.
21:34Yeah, it's disappointing, but...
21:36Well, we'll ignore it because...
21:37Big news just in.
21:39The RHA double counted.
21:42What?
21:42They counted birth defects in the whole Kettering area, including Corby, and then compared
21:47that number against Corby alone.
21:49It threw off the whole statistical field.
21:52They got the spread wrong.
21:53There is a cluster.
21:54It's the first of the four to us.
21:55The RHA got it wrong.
21:57They're not meant to get things like that wrong.
21:59You're going to be the ones to remind everyone.
22:01We've been offered a slot on GMTV.
22:04I want you to do it, Susan.
22:05GMTV.
22:06Every time that we do publicity, more women come forward.
22:10I want you and Maggie to do it.
22:14Me and Maggie?
22:15Well, shouldn't it be me and Tracey?
22:18Well, if you don't mind, Tracey, I think the mix is better with Maggie.
22:21If you always aren't posher, Tracey's posh enough.
22:24Maggie doesn't like me.
22:25It's more that Connor and Sam have similar disabilities.
22:28It's a better combination.
22:30I think it's a good idea.
22:36Every time I hope, my God, more people hate me, you know that.
22:43Yeah, I'll do it.
22:46Thank you, Susan.
22:48Thank you, Tracey.
22:54I thought you didn't like people looking at you.
22:57Now you're going on the telly.
22:58No, because Des asked me.
22:59She wouldn't even let Toby video our wedding.
23:02What is it?
23:04You worried Pat won't like it?
23:07I got my promotion.
23:09Just like you asked.
23:10But it doesn't mean what happened to Samuel means nothing though, does it?
23:15Do you have to keep hoovering?
23:16The RHA report was wrong.
23:19You made me leave all those other mothers because you said it proved there was nothing to it.
23:23I thought I was right.
23:25Well, you weren't.
23:26And so I'm doing GMTV and I don't care what Pat thinks about it.
23:40You've been to the palace before?
23:42You know what?
23:43As cheeky as it is, Les never invited me.
23:49Like outside for a photo?
23:52With the men on horses and stuff?
23:54Well, this is my first time here.
23:57In London?
23:58You've never been to London before.
24:03So we're just setting up and then we'll bring you through.
24:06It is very relaxed and we'll make sure that you have a nice time.
24:09If you just take seats here, help yourself to the fruit and the juice.
24:15All right?
24:16Thanks very much.
24:23Is that what you're wearing?
24:26Yeah.
24:27You're having a change of outfit?
24:28No, have you?
24:32I've dressed wrong, haven't I?
24:36No.
24:46Did you not want me doing this?
24:49Sorry.
24:50It was your campaign.
24:52I told Des when he asked me, is Susan okay with it?
24:55He said fine, but I know I'm not your favourite person.
25:05Is it because Derek was on the reclamation?
25:07No, he's just standing a pound, same as all of us.
25:09Well, then why don't you?
25:10Because you're stuck up.
25:13Mainly.
25:15I'm...
25:16I'm not entirely stuck up.
25:19Are you not?
25:22I'm...
25:25Anyway, it's not my campaign.
25:28It's all of ours.
25:30Your kid got hurt, same as mine.
25:33And I don't mind you.
25:34That's why you didn't like me.
25:41I've got some wet wipes in here.
25:43She'll take the worst of the make-up off at least.
25:48Tell us about when you first realised that Connor's disability
25:51might have been coved by toxic waste mismanagement.
25:56Well, I think it was more of a case when I realised
25:58there were more kids like Connor and Colby.
26:01Kids with breast defects and other health issues too.
26:06Babies who aren't even here anymore.
26:09It became clear something had gone wrong.
26:13But the council just said, wasn't us mate.
26:16Wouldn't even let us look at their files.
26:18They just...
26:18...cut us dead.
26:20So we knew we had to do something.
26:24Maggie, the impact of all this must be huge.
26:27Yes.
26:29Both Samuel and Susan's lovely boy, Connor,
26:32have had years of operations,
26:35years of pain that will go on for the rest of their lives.
26:39We want to protect them but we can't.
26:41So this fight is us doing what we can for them.
26:44We're a good sales band already,
26:46but we think there's more of us,
26:48more mothers in Colby with her kids.
26:51Well done, Susan.
26:52And there's a number, if people are worried,
26:55there's a number for people to ring you.
26:57Yes.
27:0201536823457.
27:04And do you think...
27:06Do your children understand?
27:07I mean...
27:09Have you been able to explain to them what this battle is all about?
27:14I think Connor understands some of it.
27:17Understands we're not fighting for ourselves.
27:19This is a battle for the kids.
27:21Because they don't have a choice.
27:23So we don't have a choice.
27:28What do you want for your tea?
27:30Can I have anything?
27:31Pizza.
27:32Pizza?
27:32I don't know if I've got that.
27:35Hello, love.
27:38Mum.
27:39Hello, son.
27:41You've got him big.
27:44Connor, get inside.
27:49It's okay, sweetheart.
27:53In you go.
27:55Back in a sec.
28:03The polite thing to say is hello.
28:05Who's also says hello?
28:06I don't talk to ghosts.
28:08Sends you mad.
28:09You've still got your weight.
28:11It's good.
28:12My great grandad swore he could talk to his dead son.
28:14Used to sing him songs.
28:16Eventually they had to give him electric shocks.
28:18Yeah, well I'm flesh.
28:20You're flesh.
28:22I just want to talk about it.
28:24I just want a man who pays his way and sticks around.
28:27Guess we don't all get what we want.
28:30You're upside.
28:31I don't blame you, love.
28:34Can I see the kids at least?
28:36You're not their dad, you understand?
28:39You're not that.
28:42Now fuck off.
29:04Okay.
29:08Sorry.
29:10Not your fault.
29:12That's mostly true.
29:16He didn't look how I expected.
29:19I thought he looked like George Clooney.
29:22No, Daniel showed me photos.
29:26Did he?
29:28But that was before.
29:29Now I thought he would look like me.
29:33No, you're lucky sod.
29:35You get my good looks.
29:43Well I've had you a tea.
29:45I keep a pot up here to stop me going dry.
29:47We're fine.
29:48Fence late.
29:48Thank you for analysing the paperwork we sent you.
29:53Do we have a case?
29:55Well, I've looked at the toxins in steel work by-product.
29:59The culprit, I think, is heavy metal cadmium.
30:04But no one's ever studied the effects of cadmium on pregnant women.
30:08Do we have a case, Dr Perman?
30:11You can prove that they were exposed to cadmium.
30:14Pretend that I can.
30:15Then I will need to show that it could cause these defects.
30:19I believe I can make inferences from studies of agricultural workers to allow me to do so.
30:24But in cases such as these, the court requires a foetal medical specialist to be 95% certain of their
30:31findings.
30:32So we need to eliminate as many variables as possible.
30:37Which variables?
30:39In my opinion, you need to focus exclusively on babies with upper and lower limb defects.
30:46So, by variables you mean, you talk about women? Eliminating some of the women?
30:52The pollutants you're talking about could affect with 95% certainty the foetus in that way at that time in
30:59its development.
31:00We're representing dozens of families here.
31:05If you want to win, you have 18.
31:17Dr Perman, is this...
31:18That's my professional opinion.
31:21But these are...
31:23They're all people who've suffered.
31:24Any child that doesn't meet the criteria will weaken your entire case.
31:30I'm sorry.
31:46This is gonna be okay.
31:49This is gonna be okay.
31:51The doctors know what they're doing.
31:53Have this up.
31:55Things will be better.
32:08The doctor's here.
32:09If it isn't my favourite patient.
32:16If it isn't my favourite patient.
32:22Yesterday saw thousands vote in the local elections.
32:25And the results are starting to come through from the counts.
32:27Roy Thomas and his new Labour Party have won a landslide victory, taking more than half the wards in the
32:33county.
32:34A notable result was in the Corby East Ward, where Sam Hagen, now of the Anti-Corruption Party, but formerly
32:40of Labour, lost his seat.
32:4227-year-old Hamza Alali...
32:4427-year-old Hamza Alali...
32:51Don't tell my heart, my achy, breaky heart, just don't think you understand.
33:02And if you tell my heart, my achy, breaky heart, you might...
33:13CONNOR
33:14Connor?
33:15Connor?
33:16Hey.
33:17Connor, you're...
33:18Hey, he's boiling.
33:19We're gonna help him.
33:20He's absolutely boiling.
33:21Hey, what's happening?
33:22We're gonna help him, we're gonna help him.
33:23What's happening?
33:23Connor?
33:24Can someone tell me that I'm not leaving my son?
33:27Just tell me...
33:28It's okay, Mummy's here.
33:29I'm staying here.
33:30I'm staying here.
33:31Connor, it's okay, baby, Mummy's here.
33:34Mummy's here, okay?
33:35Is he okay?
33:36What's happening?
33:37It's okay.
33:43It's okay, babe.
33:44Okay?
33:46It's okay.
34:09It's okay, babe.
34:23Connor has an infection which has led to an increase in heart rate.
34:26If it goes into his bloodstream, he may be facing a sepsis risk.
34:29We reopen the hand and we're pumping antibiotics into the wound to clean out any infected tissue.
34:35He should soon stabilise.
34:37Susan, there's nothing that will be done now till morning.
34:42I suggest you go home.
34:43What if it doesn't stabilise?
34:45Sorry?
34:47What if it has sepsis?
34:50Then we'll...
34:52We may need to look at amputating tissue.
34:54Tissue?
34:55What does that mean?
34:58You won't have to cut off his hand, will you?
35:00There's a long way to go before that happens.
35:24Hello?
35:28Sorry.
35:30Um...
35:32Just a wee catnap.
35:33My name's Sam Hagen.
35:34Yeah, I know who you are, Councillor Hagen.
35:39I need you to make me a promise.
35:41We'll promise you after.
35:44That you're not trying to profit from these mothers.
35:49I'm working a no-win-no-fee.
35:52I'll make something that does turn out right, but not much.
35:56It'll take other work to survive.
36:02Never agreed with court cases.
36:05Everybody's always taking everybody to court now, Ned.
36:08Uh-huh.
36:09But equally, I do think that it might be the only way to stop them.
36:13And they do need stopping.
36:21I can't tell you who gave me them.
36:25But I can tell you you're gonna need them.
36:34And I'm not a counsellor any more, by the way.
36:40dad.
36:46She's gonna need them.
36:46She's gonna need them.
36:47That will help me.
36:47You're un- It's just like I got some money at home.
37:17He's going to be okay.
37:19If he loses his hand, I'm cutting off mine.
37:21He's not going to lose anything.
37:23He's lost enough, you know.
37:26He's lost enough.
37:31Not as much as you.
37:35There's a lot of competition.
37:37It's all unfair.
37:41It's like you hated hospitals.
37:44Oh, I do.
37:46Especially this one.
37:54Poor kid.
37:56Have they given that a percentage?
37:58His chances of keeping the hand?
38:02No.
38:03They haven't given a percentage.
38:07What can I do?
38:10Win the case.
38:14How's it going?
38:16You anywhere with the full tests?
38:19Or whatever you call them.
38:21Yeah.
38:22Yeah, we're...
38:25Yeah, we're doing okay.
38:29Listen, Tracy.
38:34You know, they're thinking of turning this place into a call centre.
38:42I miss it sometimes.
38:45I don't miss cleaning my car twice a day, but certain places get inside you, you know?
38:54Yes, I do.
38:58After my dad died, I thought I was done with Colby.
39:02I still looked into moving my offices south.
39:06Shame on you.
39:10Then I read about you lot, and suddenly, here I am still.
39:17What do they call him again, your dad?
39:19Was it Foot Rock?
39:21His name was Larry.
39:26The idea of being Susan's headmaster.
39:29Oof.
39:29He's, er...
39:30He's a lot to live up to.
39:35Why did you have to wash your car twice a day?
39:38Dust.
39:40Got everywhere.
39:41Got inside everything.
39:44Mark had to replace the blades on my windscreen wipers three times.
39:47With dust?
39:49Was that bad?
39:50Well, only here, because of the sight and the lorries and the spill.
39:56And when the slop dried on the road, it went everywhere.
40:02Never even considered...
40:04Fuck!
40:08Fuck!
40:19Cheers.
40:20Right.
40:21Okay.
40:23Swing your legs round.
40:26Okay.
40:27Go gentle, yeah?
40:34Bigger, you take that up to your dad, yeah?
40:36Will do.
40:54Do you want to play you something?
40:57Yeah.
41:00I've probably had enough of me.
41:04Play well.
41:13He kept in the sofa, not in my bed.
41:17I didn't feel right to do otherwise.
41:19That sofa's terrible.
41:21The neighbour's cat's pissed on it twice.
41:22I didn't smell that.
41:24He must have got rid of the worst of it.
41:30Is he going to be okay?
41:32Didn't have to amputate, if that's what you mean.
41:35But I had to take off the toe.
41:39So he's back to having just one in his hand.
41:42Right.
41:51Thanks for covering Daniel.
41:55For picking up.
41:57No one else is free, so.
42:06Can I say I'm sorry?
42:09About what?
42:10The things you said on telly.
42:13I want to bloody stand myself in the leg
42:16for leaving you with love.
42:18But I could do it for you, if you like.
42:21I've got a knife somewhere.
42:26I know what I did, Susie.
42:30And I'm sorry.
42:35I sort of need you to forgive me.
42:38Do you?
42:41Really?
42:48Daniel said you forced Connor into it.
42:51It's up.
42:55Guess we're all.
42:59None of us are perfect.
43:00That's all I'm saying.
43:01And you think that's the same thing?
43:04You didn't forget to buy the milk.
43:06You fucking left.
43:08Now you get to see them.
43:09But Peter, you never get to talk to me like that again.
43:12Not now.
43:13Not ever.
43:26Right.
43:26What are you having?
43:27And don't say nothing because this isn't a charity house.
43:30A glass of tap water then, please, Patty.
43:32Twat.
43:33Oh, I'll have a pint.
43:34Oh, you won't.
43:36OK.
43:38OK.
43:38Thanks for coming.
43:40I just wanted to update you on how it's all going.
43:43First things first, the RHA report...
43:47Ooh!
43:50..we can prove is utter statistical nonsense.
43:53CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
43:55Thanks.
43:56Our findings show that the rate of limb abnormality in Corby
44:00is three times higher than the regional average.
44:06We also have what we think is a strong angle
44:09on how the toxins got into your bodies.
44:12Having consulted with our expert,
44:15we believe that we can prove
44:17that the toxins entered your system
44:19by dust.
44:23You...
44:24You breathed it in.
44:26This dust contained a heavy metal called cadmium
44:32and it's, well, according to our expert,
44:36the cloud that the dust created,
44:39it poisoned you.
44:43So as such, I'm now in the photo collection business.
44:47Any photo that you've got
44:48that has got a bit of the road or the pavement
44:51on these sites, your homes included, I want them.
44:55Tony Cox, our expert,
44:58he thinks that this dust travelled for miles.
45:04It affected the whole town.
45:07We've said from the start that we need to be able to prove,
45:10knowing negligence on behalf of the council,
45:12that we have come into possession of some documents
45:16that we believe proves that.
45:19So,
45:20our four pillars
45:23have been answered.
45:25And I think,
45:28well, we are building something
45:30that we think has a chance of a settlement.
45:33A good chance.
45:38We have a case, Maggie.
45:39That's enough for me.
45:54Hey.
45:55Hey, do you want a cup of chamomile?
45:57No, I just want to go to bed.
46:03It was dust.
46:05They think it was dust.
46:06Dust we all breathed in.
46:09Dust you brought home.
46:11Not that you knew.
46:13Dust?
46:14You serious?
46:18They have a case, Derek.
46:20We've got one.
46:22And we're going to win.
46:25We're going to win.
46:34It was good tonight, eh?
46:36Bit scary.
46:38Yeah.
46:40I felt scared, too.
46:43Certainly made me want to hoover a bit more regularly.
46:47Oh, when's you get so handsome?
46:49I'm not.
46:50You are.
46:51You think so?
46:52Yeah.
46:54You won't.
46:56That's it now.
46:57For ops.
46:58Okay.
47:01I mean no more ops.
47:05Thanks, Mum.
47:08I love your hand.
47:10Because I love you.
47:14Bye.
47:16Night, babe.
47:18Ugh.
47:18How much gel have you got in your hair?
47:20Jesus.
47:25Wait, you're done.
47:36Do we have all we need?
47:40Well, that depends.
47:42Are you taking Dr. Penman's advice?
47:44Reducing the lists?
47:49I don't know.
47:53Okay.
47:55We need Penman's testimony.
47:57She needs to know.
47:59Well, Tracy's not the only one I have to tell.
48:01No, but if she's going to be excluded from the case, she needs to know.
48:11When things are in motion.
48:14If there are no other options.
48:16Not till then.
48:45What are you thinking about?
48:50Justice.
