Short filmTranscript
00:45Sometimes life is shattered in an instant, and all our certainties are savagely stripped
00:53away. Questions become our weapons. Answers are our only hope. Without them, fear engulfs
01:13us. Love and each other can be all we have.
01:29Are they sure?
01:31Almost certain. But the lumbar puncture should confirm it. The fact that Barbara has a rash
01:37that doesn't fade when pressed suggests not only meningitis, but a blood infection too.
01:45They've started her on antibiotics immediately.
01:48Can I see her?
01:50I'm afraid not. They have to keep her isolated for the time being. They can't run the risk
01:56of any further infection.
01:59Don't fret, lad. She's young and strong. I'll stand her in good stead. She's a fighter,
02:07as our barber.
02:16There's a nip today, Fred Buckle, and I don't want you catching anything. Nursing is not
02:23my forte. Fred?
02:33Give Tom, my love.
02:39While Nurse Harry Wood is indisposed, it's all hands on deck. The doctors are advising every
02:44one of us here to take a course of antibiotics as a precaution. There will also be a prescription
02:50offered to any mothers who have had close contact with her in the last week. My mum's friend's
02:54youngest had meningitis. They went through a terrible time. It was touch and go.
02:58Dear, how dreadful.
03:00It was. But he's fine now.
03:03Nurse Crane, would you please add me to the roster? We will all cover for Nurse Harry Wood
03:07until she's back with us.
03:09Thank you, sister.
03:10Right. Nurse Anderson, can you add Mrs Palmer from Liverton Street to your list? Her baby's a
03:17week old, and Barbara was due... to make a home visit today.
03:23Of course.
03:25Good, thank you.
03:30Right, I'm going. I'll call over here any news about Barbara.
03:34Does Tom know how serious manager Cockel set to see me out is?
03:37He does, but he's in shock.
03:39Dad, can I go and see the Rolling Stones tomorrow? They're on at the Regal.
03:43Aren't they a bit...
03:44What?
03:45Undesirable.
03:45I'm going to watch them, not make friends with them.
03:47It's not you I'm worried about. It's their crowd.
03:51I'm late. We'll talk about it tonight.
03:56I've got a bit of a reputation, Timothy.
03:58That's ridiculous.
03:59To be fair, he's being pulled in all directions at the moment.
04:03But the clinic is surgery and Wadlock House.
04:06What's Wadlock House?
04:07A remand home.
04:08He's covering for a colleague there this week.
04:14Come along, ladies.
04:15Shift yourselves before you take room.
04:17Nurse Crane, if you'd like me to drive you to the hospital later, I'll be more than happy to do
04:20it.
04:20You only have to ask.
04:21Thank you. Very kind, but no, thank you.
04:24No change?
04:24No change?
04:24No change?
04:53But keep a close eye.
04:55If the colour in her fingers or toes deteriorates any further...
04:59Corn.
05:00Yes, sister.
05:04Yes, sister.
05:25Two, three, four, five.
05:30Star jumps for ten on me.
05:31Ready? Go.
05:32One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine...
05:39Ah, Dr Turner.
05:41Good to have you on board.
05:43I'm afraid you're about to earn your keep.
05:45We have a galloping outbreak of our old friend Scabies.
05:49Well, in that case, all bedding and clothing will have to be washed in boiling hot water and then dried
05:54with heat.
05:55Don't worry.
05:55We know the drill.
05:57Well, welcome to Weidlock House.
05:59One, two, three.
06:04How is she?
06:06Um, much the same.
06:09We need to give the penicillin a chance to do its work.
06:11Look, but she's holding her own and, er, that's something to take heart from.
06:16Can I sit with her?
06:17Just for a few minutes, please.
06:18I need to see her for myself.
06:20I'm sorry.
06:22I know it's hard.
06:24But you won't be of any help to her in her present condition.
06:27Please don't let her die.
06:29We are doing everything in our power to prevent it.
06:32I have great faith in our doctors, Mr. Herwood, as much as you have in God, I suspect.
06:39We can come back this evening.
06:57Good morning, nurse.
06:59Anderson, I'm afraid, nurse, Herwood is sick today and I'm covering some of our patients.
07:03Oh, what's a shame.
07:04I had a little gift to give to her, too, you know, just to thank her for the gift she's
07:08given me.
07:09You can give it to me and I'll make sure she gets it.
07:12Look at me keeping you on the doorstep.
07:13Come in.
07:14Come in.
07:18Shoes off, if you don't mind.
07:20It's a brand new carpet.
07:23Winston, he's my husband.
07:24Said we should get the linoleum, but I had my heart set.
07:28We'll be in the back room, nurse.
07:29I only have the heating on in the front room on a Sunday.
07:32You sound like my mother.
07:33Your mother sounds like a very smart woman.
07:35Where are you from, nurse, in Jamaica?
07:37Manchester, you?
07:39St. Catherine.
07:42No.
07:43That should keep you busy.
07:46Right.
07:48Let me get myself settled and then I'll have you in.
07:53One at a time.
07:59Has he been crying more than usual?
08:01He never cries.
08:03He's the best baby in the whole world.
08:05I'm sure.
08:06And what about you?
08:08Are you feeling well?
08:09No sign of a rush or stiff neck?
08:11Why?
08:11Could we have caught this?
08:12It's unlikely, but we'd like you both to take a course of antibiotics.
08:16Just to be on the safe side.
08:21It's really nothing to worry about.
08:24Your baby is thriving, Mrs. Palmer.
08:26He's put on two home systems, nurse hero would last baby.
08:28All he does is eat.
08:30That's what he meant to do.
08:31That and sleep.
08:32I hope he slows down.
08:33Just for a little while.
08:34He might be bursting out of his christening room.
08:36And what will your father think he if he has to bless you and accept you into God's love naked
08:42as you came?
08:44My husband is the pastor of our church.
08:47We've waited a very long time to thank God for our child.
08:51That's lovely.
08:52Where is your church?
08:53You are standing in it.
08:55My husband's congregation is a small one.
08:57We gather in the front room.
08:59Read the Bible, pray together.
09:01When we first came, we attended a larger church with the fancy altar.
09:04It's a big congregation, but their hearts were not so big.
09:09Our church is not like that.
09:11You go to church, nurse?
09:13I do.
09:14But I'm thinking of changing.
09:16Oh, so you know what I'm saying.
09:17No, nothing like that.
09:20You're welcome to pray with us.
09:21It's a squeeze, but...
09:22It's kind, but I think I will be too busy working until nurse hero is up and about again.
09:27This door is always open.
09:29Like at home.
09:35Right, so you are Michael Sumter, yes?
09:39Let's take a look at you.
09:43Hmm.
09:44You have a mild dose of scabies.
09:47Nothing much.
09:48The lotion should clear it up fairly quickly.
09:51Hmm.
09:51This cut's infected.
09:54How did you do this?
09:58I'll dress it for you now.
10:00Then, you come in again tomorrow, and I'll change it.
10:06Oh, it stings.
10:07Sorry.
10:22What's that for?
10:23Uh, visiting time, sir.
10:26You'd better go, then.
10:27I'll get no visits.
10:29Doesn't your family visit?
10:30I'll have my family.
10:39Oh, Tom, you're soaked.
10:42Sister Grant sent me home.
10:44You took a lot of notice, then?
10:46I'll go back there tonight.
10:48After visiting.
10:49I don't think I can face it yet.
10:51Not on my own.
10:52I know.
10:53I had a feeling this might happen.
10:55Here.
10:55A bit of sustenance.
10:57And clean clothes.
10:59Can't let standards slide.
11:01I try my best.
11:04There's no change, Phyllis.
11:06It's early days.
11:07And no change cuts both ways.
11:10She's no worse, Tom.
11:11Think of it like that.
11:12I know how much you love her.
11:16And how much she loves you.
11:22Hey, Somta.
11:23Is it true you and your bird are having a kid?
11:24What happened?
11:25You forget to pull it out.
11:27Surprise, you put it in.
11:28She's not my bird.
11:29She's my wife.
11:29Look, it's Hal.
11:31She's sticking up for a tart and all.
11:36Say it again.
11:51Did you know that Mrs. Palmer's husband was a pastor?
11:54Oh, how interesting.
11:56Where's his church?
11:57In their little flat.
11:59The congregation comes to him and they worship there.
12:01Gosh.
12:02We're not judged by the size of our churches, but the way we inhabit them.
12:08Sister, you're not wearing your glasses.
12:11How peculiar.
12:13They must have fallen off.
12:15It's a sign.
12:17Perhaps they do not like it there.
12:19No matter.
12:20We'll find them.
12:21Now, come along, eat up.
12:24Strangely, I find myself devoid of the ability to partake in this nourishment.
12:30I am old.
12:32I have had my time.
12:34Yet here I am, sight renewed.
12:38While our beloved friend is stricken so, I would gladly let the good lord take me if he would spare
12:46her.
12:48He does not trade one precious soul for another, sister.
12:51It is not his way.
13:02Aren't you cold out here?
13:04Oh, now you mention it.
13:07R.D.
13:11There's a local boy in there.
13:13Same age as Tim.
13:15He troubles me.
13:17I can hardly get two words out of him.
13:22There are scars on his wrist, Sheila.
13:26He's clearly depressed, but there doesn't seem to be any help in there.
13:31He doesn't strike me as the usual type.
13:35I saw him defending his wife's honour today.
13:38His wife?
13:39And she's pregnant.
13:42Can you imagine how he must feel?
13:44Locked up away from her.
13:48I wish I could get him to open up to me.
13:50Would you like me to find out if his wife is a patient in Nanata's house?
13:54Her name is Sumter.
13:56I'll check at the clinic.
14:00Where's Tim?
14:01Orchestra.
14:02It's Monday, remember?
14:04He should be back about seven.
14:14Did you get some sleep, Mr. Arrowwood?
14:16I have a confession, sister.
14:19I didn't even go home.
14:21I'll sit here and I promise not to move.
14:23I just have to be here when she wakes up.
14:26I've sat at the bedside of so many dying people,
14:28some of them in this very hospital.
14:30Surely I can be near my own wife.
14:33She's still very ill.
14:35But she's calmer and not as feverish as she was.
14:40If you wear a mask and gown,
14:41I'll let you in to sit with her for a few moments.
14:52Just sit with her.
14:53I have a feeling she'll know you're here.
15:18Where have you been?
15:20You're late.
15:22Orchestra?
15:25Till this time.
15:26It's nearly ten.
15:27We were worried.
15:29We almost called the police.
15:31You're not allowed out with your friends again until I say.
15:34That's not fair.
15:36They're all going to see the Rolling Stones tomorrow.
15:37Good for them.
15:39Hope they get out in one piece.
15:40Now go to bed.
15:59Phyllis?
16:00Yes?
16:01Would you like me to pray with you?
16:04For Barbara.
16:06Please don't think me ungrateful.
16:07Pray all you like for Barbara,
16:09but don't ask me to do it.
16:11I'll just do what I am doing, quietly.
16:18I might have put my foot in it last night.
16:21Why?
16:21I asked Phyllis if she wanted to pray with me for Barbara.
16:25Maybe she wouldn't want to,
16:25so I don't know why I did it.
16:28It would be like asking you.
16:30You were being kind.
16:31Phyllis will know that.
16:33If I'm honest, I think it was more for my sake.
16:35I'd like to pray with other people.
16:38So I was brought up.
16:40I can understand that.
16:43Everything feels so fragile right now.
16:46There must be a comfort in it.
16:55If you want some company on the bus this Sunday,
16:57I'm happy to tag along.
16:58I can always go for a wonder when you go to church.
17:03That's kind of you,
17:03but let's see all Barbara's first.
17:10Go.
17:13Miss Crane,
17:14why don't you let myself and the other midwives
17:16share your cases between us?
17:18I'm sure you'd rather be at the hospital.
17:20I think I'd prefer to carry on for now,
17:22perhaps later.
17:24What do you think about asking Mrs Turner to come back?
17:27Could be the perfect solution,
17:28if she's willing, of course.
17:30Can't but ask.
17:34How's your hand?
17:36Hey, look.
17:37Something's boyfriend.
17:39I need to change your dressing.
17:41Can you come up to the medical room
17:43when you're finished here?
17:49Medical room.
17:51He's been right as rain nurse,
17:53not top right on.
17:54That's good.
17:55I wanted to make sure.
17:56I forgot to give you this for Nurse Arrowwood.
18:01Oh, that's pretty.
18:03Nurse Arrowwood will love it.
18:05My mother collects little glass ornaments.
18:09You're Miss Sarah, don't you?
18:11Yes.
18:13But my work is here and I love it.
18:16Which reminds me, I have clinic today.
18:18We have a prayer meeting this evening.
18:21Thank you, but I have choir practice tonight.
18:23But we don't have a choir, but we love to sing.
18:28Goodbye, Mrs Palmer.
18:33That's looking better.
18:35If you like, I can ask them to take you off gardening duty for a few days.
18:39No, I like going outside.
18:43I saw those other boys provoking you.
18:46Does it happen often?
18:48It happens to everyone.
18:50Mine, anything special.
18:52You hear what they said?
18:54About Alison.
18:56Is Alison your wife?
18:58I call her a tart.
19:00She isn't.
19:01I'm sure she isn't.
19:03I don't know what she saw in me.
19:06My mother says I'm good for nothing.
19:09She didn't want her to marry me, but...
19:11She didn't want a bastard in the family, so she let her.
19:14All she cares about is what people think.
19:17Where's Alison now?
19:19Living with her.
19:22Couldn't afford a place of our own.
19:24Must be hard.
19:26At least she's not stuck with some good-for-nothing waster.
19:28She's going to be in and out of jail for the rest of his life.
19:30Did Alison say that?
19:32No.
19:34I did.
19:35But I bet she thinks it.
19:41Tom.
19:43You look terrible.
19:47How is she?
19:50She's still not awake.
19:52But the fever's come down a bit.
19:54The sister says that's good.
19:56It is.
19:57What did I tell you?
19:59She's a strong lass.
20:02Oh, I brought her some clean nightcloths.
20:04And this is for you.
20:06From Fred.
20:07It's a razor.
20:08And if I were you, I'd use it.
20:10You don't want Barbara waking up and getting the fright of her life because your facial hair has taken on
20:15a life of its own.
20:16Wouldn't that be something?
20:18For Barbara to wake up and look at me in the way that she does?
20:35Looks like the word's out.
20:37This is popular, Fred.
20:39The word is always out.
20:41They must think a great deal of Barbara.
20:43They do.
20:45They think of her and Thomas' family.
20:47That's a lovely thing.
20:49Especially as they're not from here.
20:52Very lucky.
21:11I saw Sister Julianne today.
21:13She asked me to come back to Ninata's house and work with them.
21:17While Barbara's in the hospital.
21:18What did you say?
21:19I said I had to talk it over with you.
21:22We'll manage.
21:25I checked at clinic and there isn't anyone called Sumter on their books.
21:29That's a shame.
21:31I hope she hasn't moved away.
21:34That would make things harder for Michael.
21:47I was about to send out a search party.
21:49I went for a walk.
21:52Yeah.
21:54Just for a few minutes, mind.
22:02They're satisfied there's no risk of infection now, so you don't have to wear a mask.
22:07You can talk to her if you like, but keep your voice down.
22:11She's very drowsy still, so don't expect her to talk back.
22:16Nurse will be in and out.
22:17If you need anything, ring the bell.
22:25Oh, darling.
22:28Oh, my poor darling.
22:34Your hand's cold.
22:40Everyone sends their love.
22:43I've been thinking about when you're better.
22:48I know we both love it here, but I think it's time for a change.
22:52Don't you?
23:04Don't you?
23:09Some of them even go to church.
23:31Brings a whole new meaning to the word flock.
23:46You need a shave.
23:54Phyllis said you'd say that.
23:57Phyllis knows everything.
24:09You want some?
24:11Yes, please.
24:15Lucille, what you said before about Tom and Barbara being lucky,
24:19it made me worry you still don't feel welcome here.
24:24I'd hate that.
24:26It's not here.
24:29It's at church.
24:32Why?
24:33What's happened?
24:35I only went there because of Sybil, and she made me join the choir.
24:40But then the choir master gave me a solo.
24:42I thought you said you couldn't hold a tune.
24:44My mother tells me never to boast.
24:49Anyway, some people there wasn't too happy about it.
24:52Some people thought it wasn't a done thing to have the likes of me stand up on my own and
24:56be seen.
24:58Don't go back.
24:59Isn't that the easy way?
25:02Part of me thinks I should stay and not be called by their ignorant behavior.
25:05I should stand up there in front of them all and sing my heart out.
25:10Why don't you go to Mrs. Palmer's prayer meetings instead?
25:13I think they sound lovely.
25:15They do.
25:16They sound so much like home.
25:18But I'm living in England now, and I should be trying harder to fit in here.
25:24Lunata's house, midwife speaking?
25:26Oh, Mr. Heroid.
25:28Oh.
25:29How is everything?
25:34That's wonderful.
25:35That's so wonderful.
25:37I'll tell everyone.
25:39Right.
25:42Barbara's come round.
25:44Go and visit her.
25:45Isn't that just so wonderful?
26:12Now, I've allocated you each a time to visit which does not interfere with your nursing duties.
26:17You're allowed five minutes each.
26:19Remember, Barbara is still very weak.
26:21Are we all agreed?
26:22We are.
26:23We are.
26:23We are.
26:24Splendid.
26:24If only all rotors were as welcome as this one.
26:27Mrs. Turner.
26:28Welcome back, Nurse Turner.
26:31It is only temporary till we get Barbara back.
26:33I've pulled together a list of your calls.
26:36First up is Miss Weatherly.
26:49How does that feel?
26:51More like my Tom.
26:55Don't know much about history, don't know much biology, don't know much about science book, don't know much about the
27:07French I took, but I do know that I love you, and I know that if you loved me too,
27:15well, welcome to the world this would be.
27:17Now, I don't know much about history.
27:34Now, I don't know much about history.
27:38Now, I don't know much about history, but I'm trying to be.
27:56Today, Miss Weatherly, I'm just going to examine you to make sure everything is progressing normally.
28:01Do you have to examine me?
28:03I feel fine, don't I, Mum?
28:04Of course you do.
28:05You're neither up nor down with it.
28:06I was the same.
28:07I hardly knew you were in there.
28:09Are you still planning to give birth here?
28:10Of course she is.
28:11Why wouldn't she?
28:12This is where she lives.
28:13I just have to ask.
28:15She's going nowhere.
28:16Not as long as I've got breath.
28:18I don't like to think where you might have been living if it was up to that.
28:20Mum!
28:25Your hand is healing nicely.
28:29If those lights are bothering you, I could have a word with the superintendent.
28:34I'll be out of you soon.
28:36I'm up in front of the magistrates the day after tomorrow.
28:38You could be going home.
28:40I stole a car.
28:42I'm not going home.
28:45Why did you do it?
28:46Got a kid on the way.
28:49The bloke turned out with some keys.
28:51Told me to drive it up to Stepney and he would pay me for doing it.
28:54Next thing I knew the police had me.
28:56Are you sorry?
28:57What do you think?
29:00Then tell them that.
29:03You don't have the right words.
29:05They're timing knots.
29:07Tell me.
29:08I'll help you.
29:09You don't need big words.
29:11It's just the truth.
29:14Go on.
29:17I'm sorry for doing it.
29:19Because it was stupid.
29:21But I just wanted to look after my wife and...
29:24I'd rather die than take money off her mother, the old bag.
29:27I mean...
29:28See, I can't say that.
29:30I can't do it.
29:31I just don't have the right words to use.
29:33Could say it in a different way.
29:34You could.
29:35I can't.
29:38Doesn't matter.
29:39What kind of a father would I be anyway?
29:44You got kids?
29:46Three.
29:47Two boys and a girl.
29:49My eldest son is the same age as you.
29:52He's not in trouble.
29:54He is at the moment.
29:56What do you do?
29:59He stayed out later than he should.
30:04Is that all?
30:06What do you do to him?
30:09I told him he couldn't see his friends for a few days.
30:14I wish I was going up in front of you.
30:17You sound like an alright dad.
30:20Where's your dad?
30:23I could offer for our ball.
30:26Like father, like son.
30:33Baby's lying perfectly, Miss Weatherly.
30:35The head is down and engaged.
30:36It might not be long now.
30:38It's not Miss.
30:40It's Mrs.
30:41Mrs. Weatherly.
30:42I thought that was your mother's name.
30:44Weatherly is my maiden name.
30:47I was Mrs. Sumpter, but I go by Weatherly now.
30:50I don't want you thinking I wasn't married or anything.
30:53Sumpter?
30:54Why?
30:55What's wrong with that?
30:56Nothing.
30:57But I think there's something you should know.
31:00My husband is a GP at Weedlock House just now.
31:04He's met your husband.
31:06Don't say a word to my mum.
31:08If she finds out there'll be hell to pay,
31:10she can't send him.
31:12Sorry to hear that.
31:21Did you go to Mrs. Palmer's prayer meeting?
31:25Why not?
31:27She reminds me too much of my mother and her sisters and...
31:31everything I miss from home.
31:33Makes me ache.
31:37If it was me,
31:39and I was that way inclined,
31:41I'd be there like a shot.
31:47Oi! Sumpter!
31:49Want a drag?
32:04Why can't I speak for him?
32:06Because then we would have to do it for all of them,
32:08and we can't.
32:09How they feel is not our concern.
32:11We're only interested in what they've done.
32:14All that boy needs is for somebody to show some faith in him.
32:18Just once.
32:20That's all.
32:21Can I give you a piece of advice?
32:22The same advice that somebody once gave me.
32:25You can't save them all.
32:27And you'd have nothing left if you tried.
32:36I'll go. You look tired.
32:39Get some sleep before Tom goes.
32:42Let him know if there's anything you want me to bring.
32:46There is.
32:51Look.
32:57These are worse, aren't they?
33:04I can't feel anything with them either.
33:11Go and get Sister Grant.
33:27That was Nurse Crane.
33:29The tissue on three of Nurse Harrowood's fingers
33:32has been badly affected by the septicemia.
33:35They won't know.
33:36She won't be able to do her job.
33:38Not if she can't feel anything.
33:40No.
33:52What are you doing with that?
33:54Does it need dry cleaning?
33:55No, it's for Michael.
33:56You'll need it for court.
33:57Does Timothy know you've taken it?
33:59I'm only borrowing it.
34:00Patrick.
34:01Don't worry.
34:02We'll see you at the maternity home later.
34:08Look.
34:09Hand knitted.
34:11You'd never know I got it in a jumble.
34:12Don't go buying anything else.
34:14It'll grow out of everything before it can wear them all.
34:16Appearances matter, Alison.
34:18Especially in your situation.
34:19I will not have people talking about you
34:21or my grandchild
34:22just because you were stupid enough
34:23to get swept away by a fly-by night.
34:26You're not the first.
34:27You won't be the last.
34:28No wonder this country's gone to the dogs.
34:30Because girls like you
34:31can't tell the difference between that thing
34:33and proper affection.
34:36Well, it's a good thing we won't have to worry about him after today.
34:38He'll be well away by the time that baby's here.
34:40What do you mean?
34:42He's in court today.
34:43Facing up to what he did.
34:45There's no hiding now.
34:46How do you know that?
34:47I've been keeping tabs.
34:50Now, content yourself.
34:52You'll upset the baby.
34:56Are you tired, darling?
34:59Do you want me to go?
35:07You must always hold my hand.
35:12What?
35:13Even if I can't feel you,
35:16I'll remember your touch.
35:21All I ever wanted to be was a midwife.
35:26Ever since I was little.
35:29I wanted to bring babies into the world.
35:34But if that's not to be, then it's not to be.
35:40And I'll just have to be the best curate's wife in the history of curate's wives.
35:46Remember what you said about moving to the country?
35:49I didn't know you'd hurt me.
35:51Maybe it was a dream.
35:55But if it was, it was the most wonderful dream.
36:00I don't have to give up on babies, Tom.
36:03Not when we have our own.
36:05Not when we have our own.
36:12That day we got married.
36:15I was all wrapped up in my cloak.
36:19That was the safest I've ever felt.
36:24And that's because of you, Tom.
36:29Bring in my engagement ring later.
36:32The grass one.
36:35The grass one.
36:50All stand.
36:53Excuse me, miss.
36:54I just want to go in.
36:55No, sorry, you can't go in.
36:56I'll sit at the back.
36:57I'm sorry, miss, you can't.
36:58You have to leave.
36:59He's my husband.
37:01Michael, I'm sorry.
37:03Why can't I just go in?
37:04Don't worry, she's upset.
37:06Please.
37:06I thought you wanted me to stay.
37:08I'll be alright.
37:11Alison.
37:17I'm Dr. Turner.
37:19I've been working at Wakelock House.
37:21I've been trying to help Michael.
37:25Are you alright?
37:28I need to sit down.
37:30I've had a grab my tummy all night.
37:32You might be in labour, Alison.
37:34We need to get you to the maternity home.
37:37We'll call an ambulance.
37:39Please don't let anything bad happen with the baby.
37:45I did take that car.
37:47I did.
37:49But I wish I hadn't.
37:51More than anything, I wish I hadn't.
37:55I know it was wrong.
37:57But sometimes you don't know what's wrong until you've done it.
37:59And then it's too late.
38:02You need someone to show you where you're going wrong before you do it.
38:06And I don't have anyone like that.
38:08Well, I didn't.
38:10But I'm married now.
38:12If you give me another chance, I swear.
38:15I swear I'll make good for her and our baby.
38:28I have heard your statement and believe you are remorseful.
38:33However, I do not feel you are ready to face your responsibilities.
38:37I am therefore sentencing you to three years.
38:40Consequently, you will shortly be moved to a juvenile prison.
38:48She was at the court.
38:50Contractions are coming in every four minutes.
38:52But she's doing very well.
38:53Well done, Alison.
38:55That's it.
38:56It hurts too much.
38:58That's it.
38:58Well done.
38:59You're doing so well.
39:01Do you want us to get your mum?
39:03No.
39:04Not yet.
39:06That's it.
39:07Good girl.
39:09Baby's going to be here very soon.
39:11Big push.
39:12Big push.
39:19Good girl.
39:20It hurts so much.
39:23Shall we get your mum?
39:24No.
39:25I want Michael.
39:27I want Michael.
39:28Alison, as soon as your baby is born, Dr Turner will make sure Michael knows.
39:32Promise?
39:34Promise.
39:43No.
39:51On the next contraction, I want you to give me small controlled pushes.
39:55I can't.
39:55I can't.
39:56Yes, you can.
39:57You're nearly there and you're doing so well.
39:59So well.
40:01That's it.
40:02Just one small push.
40:04Lovely.
40:04And another.
40:09Now, pants.
40:11Oh, well done.
40:15Baby's head's gone.
40:17Push again and we'll have baby.
40:22Well done, Alison.
40:24Well done.
40:25You've got a perfect baby boy.
40:29Let me see.
40:31Let me see.
40:32Let me see.
40:50See...
40:51Perfect.
40:56Well done, Alison.
40:58He looks just like his dad.
41:06Michael
41:09You've got a little boy
41:11A boy
41:12And he's perfect, Michael
41:15Alison
41:15She was wonderful
41:18She sent me here to tell you, Michael
41:20She wants you to know that he looks just like you
41:26I know three years must feel like a life sentence
41:30But it's up to you
41:32You're a dad now
41:33You've got someone to prove it to
41:42I'm not getting better, Phyllis
41:46As long as I've known you, you've never hidden from anything
41:51I've learned a lot from you
41:54I didn't think there was much left to learn
41:57There's nothing anyone can teach you about caring for people for this
42:00I'm not sure everyone would agree with that
42:02Well, they don't know you like I do
42:07This next bit is going to be hard
42:13I hate to see the people I love upset
42:18We'll do our best
42:26Is that my suit?
42:28Yes
42:29Did you go into my room and take it?
42:31Without asking me?
42:32Imagine if I'd done that
42:33I probably wouldn't be allowed out for a year
42:35I'm sorry
42:37I should have asked
42:38I would have given it to you
42:39You know that
42:41I know
42:45But we weren't speaking
42:46And I wanted to help one of the boys at Wadlock
42:48He was up in court
42:50And he didn't have anything to wear
42:51That's not an excuse
42:53I know
42:58What happened to him?
43:00Got sent to an approved school
43:03How old is he?
43:05Same age as you
43:06But he seemed much older
43:08I'm not a child anymore either
43:12Sometimes it's hard for a dad to accept that
43:16You will always be my little boy
43:18Dad
43:21I am sorry you missed that concert
43:23It's a good thing they're coming back then
43:24At the end of the month
43:26Good
43:27I'll come with you
43:28I'd rather go with my mates
43:30I don't blame you
43:31I don't blame you
43:32I don't blame you
43:36I don't blame you
43:37I don't blame you
43:40I don't blame you
43:42I don't blame you
43:44I don't blame you
43:44I don't blame you
43:45I don't blame you
43:47I don't blame you
43:48I don't blame you
43:48I don't blame you
43:49I don't blame you
43:49I don't blame you
43:49I don't blame you
43:50I don't blame you
43:50I don't blame you
43:50I don't blame you
43:51I don't blame you
43:51I don't blame you
43:52I don't blame you
43:55I don't blame you
44:04Midwife speaking.
44:05Valerie, it's Tom.
44:07Please tell Phyllis to meet me at the hospital right away.
44:10Phyllis?
44:23Phyllis?
44:24Tom?
44:29I'm afraid that the septicemia has caused irreversible damage.
44:33There's nothing more that we can do.
45:01Oh, Barbara.
45:04I love you so much.
45:07My life has been blessed to have you in it.
45:12I can't bear to let you go.
45:16I can't bear to let you.
45:49Talk to her, Tom.
45:51She can still hear you.
46:01The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
46:04He maketh me lie down in green pastures.
46:08He leadeth me beside still waters.
46:14He restoreth my soul.
46:17He leadeth me in paths of righteousness.
46:21Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow.
46:36Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for thou art
46:42with me.
46:43Thy rod and my staff, they comfort me.
46:48Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house
46:54of the Lord forever.
46:55Never.
47:09She's gone.
47:12I don't know.
47:44I don't know.
48:11I don't know.
48:40I don't know.
48:42I don't know.
48:56I don't know.
49:05I don't know.
49:28I don't know.
49:44I don't know.
50:01I don't know.
50:03I don't know.
50:40I don't know.
51:00I don't know.
51:02I don't know.
51:03I don't know.
51:03I don't know.
51:06I don't know.
51:31I don't know.
51:31I don't know.
