00:00How are you?
00:29Where are you after? Panic Easter egg buying?
00:33Actually, I've just come back from church.
00:36Oh, good. That's great.
00:38You know, you put Adam to shame.
00:40He literally woke up this morning and devoured the Easter egg that I bought for glory.
00:44Hey, you didn't have to get her an Easter egg.
00:46Don't get too excited. Like I said, he ate it.
00:49Go for damages.
00:51Absolutely. Whose credit card do you think this is?
00:56How are you?
00:58Yeah, I'm doing okay.
01:00Listen, you can tell me everything or you can tell me nothing.
01:04But just know that I'm here, okay?
01:07And that I love you, Dee Dee.
01:09Thank you, Tim.
01:11Look, I'm so grateful for everything you did in regards to the complaint.
01:15Yeah, of course.
01:16But I do need to tell you something.
01:18The, er, hospital have concluded their investigation and they've found no wrongdoing.
01:24So, are you serious?
01:26Yeah.
01:27Oh, I'm so sorry.
01:29I tried.
01:30You really did.
01:31Anyway, what are you up to after your Easter egg mission?
01:37Nothing.
01:38Erm, eating my whole body weight in chocolate.
01:40Do you want to join me?
01:42Actually, I wondered if I could ask you a favour.
01:46Yeah.
01:47Anything.
01:48Hey.
01:49Hi, you all right?
01:50Yeah.
01:51Erm, just wondering if you'd heard how Dee Dee's doing.
01:53Yeah, no, she's so-so.
01:54Erm, why do you ask?
01:55No reason, just wondering.
01:56You know, with everything she's been through.
01:57Yeah, well, if I see her before you, well, I'll pass on your love.
01:58Thanks.
01:59Shouldn't be eating whilst you work.
02:00Says who?
02:01Dad.
02:02Evelyn used to eat all the time.
02:03Except with a cheese sandwich and a yoghurt for her afters.
02:04Yeah, that's cos you were scared of her.
02:05Well, maybe you should be scared of me.
02:06Look, I wanted to have a serious conversation with you.
02:07Yeah.
02:08I wanted to have a serious conversation with you.
02:09Yeah.
02:10Yeah, no, she's so-so.
02:11Erm, why do you ask?
02:12No reason, just wondering.
02:13You know, with everything she's been through.
02:14Yeah, well, if I see her before you, well, I'll pass on your love.
02:16Thanks.
02:17Shouldn't be eating whilst you work.
02:18Says who?
02:19Dad.
02:20Evelyn used to eat all the time.
02:21Except with a cheese sandwich and a yoghurt for her afters.
02:23That's cos you were scared of her.
02:24Well, maybe you should be scared of me.
02:26Look, I wanted to have a serious conversation with you.
02:29I'm an idiot.
02:31At last.
02:32Something we agree on.
02:33No, really, I am.
02:34I should have never spoken to Dee Dee.
02:36You know, she's clearly traumatised.
02:38I don't know what to say or do.
02:40Helpful.
02:41Really helpful.
02:44Are you paying for those?
02:47Obviously not.
02:48I'm up to my neck in work and you're going on about us.
02:52A secret bunny.
02:53Oh, come on.
02:54He's literally just buying an Easter egg.
02:57Tinks, I'm not bothered.
02:58And calling it a secret bunny gives me the ick.
03:01Afternoon.
03:02Afternoon.
03:03Hiya.
03:08Tinks, gathers a pack of mini eggs, will you?
03:10Oh, for Swain?
03:11For me.
03:15Sorry about that.
03:16It's alright.
03:17Sad state of affairs when you've got to buy your own Easter egg.
03:19Oh, I get it.
03:20You want me to buy one for you?
03:21I'm more of a three-course meal and a bottle of wine kind of girl.
03:25Is that right?
03:26Didn't hear the Easter bunny lobbing that into his basket.
03:29Maybe you should have a word and use your influence.
03:31I'll see what I can do.
03:32Okay, you try hard because I'll be in the bistro.
03:35Six o'clock.
03:36Bunny is and all.
03:38I reported Brody, but Dylan's gone and covered for him.
03:46Well, there must be more to it.
03:48I just can't understand. Why would he go along with that?
03:51No idea.
03:52Oi!
03:53You don't believe this nonsense and all, do you?
03:56Sorry?
03:57You know full well that Brody's involved, even if Dylan says he's not.
04:00Is this really the time or the place?
04:02Oh, give over.
04:03Sure.
04:04Look, if Dylan says that nothing's gone on, there's not a lot else I can do, I'm afraid.
04:07Well, Brody's getting away with murder and he's making my son lie for him.
04:11My hands are tied. Can I get my coffee now, please?
04:14No, Daniel.
04:15What?
04:18If I'd tell you something that could get us both in trouble, but is ultimately provable,
04:24will you do something about it then?
04:27What are you going on about?
04:30Well, Brody has got a burner phone.
04:36How do you know that?
04:37Because I snuck it into him via your bag.
04:43You idiot.
04:44I was just trying to protect my son.
04:46I can't believe you did that.
04:47Well, I had no choice.
04:48Yes, you did.
04:49I can't believe this.
04:50You say that the school's not looking out for him, but what you've done is put him,
04:54yourself and me in the direct line of fire.
04:57I'll tell you what, I'm knackered with you lot already.
05:10Me and all.
05:12Did you hear from Chess?
05:14Yeah, he facetimed us before.
05:16Oh, I bet he's having a good time on Dev's kebab store in that London.
05:22Here's hoping he makes some bees and honey for the old rattle and clank.
05:27What are you on about?
05:29I'm a bee and a cockney, yeah.
05:31Bees and honey, money, rattle and clank, bank.
05:34Right.
05:35I thought it was pretty good, actually.
05:38Yeah, you and Dick Van Dyke, Mary Poppins!
05:43Ha-ha!
05:44Cheek.
05:45No missing, ma'am.
05:47What, Dick?
05:48We've not even met him, have you?
05:50Yes, nay.
05:51He'll be home before you know it, you soppy Sue.
05:55Oh, wow, is that for me?
05:58Yes, I'm getting nothing.
06:01Only me.
06:02Hey, sister!
06:04Hiya, love.
06:05Hey, look, I won't stop long.
06:06Just brought some Easter bits for the kiddies.
06:08Oh, wow, thank you.
06:10What do we say to Auntie Asha?
06:13Thank you, Auntie Asha.
06:14That is really kind of you.
06:16Nice.
06:17So what have you been up to?
06:18Er, nothing much.
06:19I, er, got my hair done at the salon before.
06:21Oh, yeah, I was just gonna say.
06:23Isn't that nice?
06:24Yeah, very fancy.
06:25Thanks.
06:26Oh, I tell you what, it was proper kicking off in there.
06:28What, with the customer?
06:29New stylist.
06:30Mum, I'm just gonna nip out for a minute, yeah?
06:34Jen!
06:35Oh, can you just watch the kids?
06:36Five minutes.
06:37Gemma, I've got...
06:38Five minutes!
06:39Oh!
06:40Oh!
06:41Oh!
06:42Oh, what's this?
06:43Bryn?
06:44What's that?
06:45Huh?
06:46You okay?
06:47Fine.
06:48It's out.
06:49Listen, should we get off?
06:50What?
06:51They've all got the babies.
06:52Oh, that doesn't matter.
06:53You've got every right to be here.
06:55Stay.
06:56Just for a little.
06:57Any idea who that customer was?
06:58You snotty old cow.
06:59Is everything alright?
07:00She has been coming here since before I started.
07:01Rain or shine.
07:02Recession or no recession.
07:03PPE'd up, PPE'd down.
07:04She's kept the lights on in here.
07:05It were an accident.
07:06I moved my scissors one way and she moved her head the other.
07:07You weren't concentrating.
07:08I was.
07:09Right, okay.
07:10So that's why she's walked out looking like Edward Scissorhands went in blind.
07:11Excuse me?
07:12Pfft.
07:13You know what?
07:14It's just for a little.
07:15It's for a little.
07:16Any idea who that customer was?
07:17You snotty old cow.
07:18Is everything alright?
07:19She has been coming here since before I started.
07:22Rain or shine.
07:23Recession or no recession.
07:24PPE'd up.
07:25PPE'd down.
07:26She's kept the lights on in here.
07:27It were an accident.
07:28I moved my scissors one way and she moved her head the other.
07:31You weren't concentrating.
07:32I was.
07:33Right, okay.
07:34So that's why she's walked out looking like Edward Scissorhands went in blind.
07:38Excuse me?
07:39Yeah, that's what I thought.
07:41Not so mouthy now, are ya?
07:44You ain't got a clue.
07:46Maria, no!
07:47Come on then.
07:48I dare ya.
07:53I wouldn't waste it on you.
07:54Well, I would on you.
07:56The clue!
07:57Ouch!
07:58Now!
07:59You are so fired when Audrey is about this.
08:02It's too late.
08:03Cos I'm walking.
08:04What's with the crocodile tears?
08:05Why are you the one crying?
08:06Do one.
08:07You do what?
08:08Do an even bigger one.
08:09Maria, I am like so sorry.
08:10Yeah?
08:11Oh!
08:12Hey, Lou!
08:13Lou!
08:14What are you thinking?
08:15I don't know.
08:16I just lost it.
08:17It's gonna be off a job.
08:18To be honest, I don't even give a toss.
08:19I've got more important things to worry about.
08:20It's my son.
08:21He's in trouble, Jay.
08:22He's in trouble, Jay.
08:25Is this your first time?
08:26Oh, actually, it's not for me.
08:27It's for my friend.
08:28Oh, hi.
08:29Hi.
08:30Hi.
08:31Yeah.
08:32It's a nice group.
08:33There's no pressure.
08:34And it's for your biscuits.
08:35Sounds like our kind of place.
08:36Yeah.
08:37Did you give birth recently?
08:38I'm sorry.
08:39I'm sorry.
08:40I'm sorry.
08:41I'm sorry.
08:42I'm sorry.
08:43I'm sorry.
08:44I'm sorry.
08:45No problem.
08:46He's gorgeous.
08:47Huh?
08:48What's his name?
08:49Rio.
08:50Beautiful.
08:51Is this your first time?
08:52Oh, actually, it's not for me.
08:53It's for my friend.
08:54Oh, hi.
08:55Hi.
08:56Yeah.
08:57It's an ice group.
08:58There's no pressure.
08:59And it's for your biscuits.
09:01Sounds like our kind of place.
09:03Yeah.
09:04Did you give birth recently?
09:07About three weeks ago.
09:09Right.
09:10And you?
09:12Four months ago.
09:13He's four months.
09:14Still doesn't sleep, but at least he's here.
09:21Is one of these yours?
09:23No.
09:24Oh.
09:25Oh, no.
09:26I didn't lose her.
09:28She's just...
09:29She's just not here, here.
09:32I nearly lost this one.
09:35The way he came out, you wouldn't recognise him.
09:40Bruised and swollen.
09:42He was too big.
09:44Told them I needed a C-section.
09:48I don't know, it's like they didn't believe me or...
09:52They thought they knew my body better than I knew it myself.
09:56Said I was made of strong stuff.
09:58That I got this.
09:59And I'd be able to get through it on my own.
10:03Turns out I hadn't got it.
10:06I was in pain.
10:08Unimaginable pain.
10:11And I was in trouble.
10:13Both were.
10:14I had a similar...
10:15Don't have to share.
10:16Just a similar experience.
10:17I know it might seem strange for a women's group, but...
10:20He lost his wife.
10:21Oh, gosh.
10:22I swear down that pathetic little moron and lose a dad of liars.
10:35I never did nothing.
10:37I'm finding my time though.
10:38Waiting for the opportunity to put both of them back in their place.
10:39Yeah?
10:40Dad!
10:41I swear down that pathetic little moron and lose a dad of liars.
10:49I never did nothing.
10:52Binding my time, though.
10:53Waiting for the opportunity to put both of them back in their place.
10:56Yeah?
10:58Dad!
11:02I'll do it, whatever.
11:11It's just great. It's just typical me.
11:19First decent job I've had in ages and I mess it up.
11:22Hey, I'm sure it's not that bad.
11:24Hard to see it was a misunderstanding.
11:26I'm so sorry, Gem. This is the last thing you need me sobbing and snotting all over you.
11:32Yeah, it's fine.
11:34I thought you only had the girls, though.
11:35Oh, no. My boy's the eldest.
11:38Right.
11:39Yeah.
11:41What's he called?
11:42Brodie.
11:44Like, I know it sounds ridiculous.
11:45Like, what with him being in the STC.
11:47He's in the STC.
11:49Oh, yeah, but I swear to you, Gem, that he's a good kid.
11:51And I'm not just saying that because I'm his mum.
11:53Like, I promise you.
11:56Bless you.
11:57I think about him all the time, you know.
11:59Stuck in that place.
12:00It's not doing him the outs of good.
12:02The people in there are worse than the ones he was hanging around with out here.
12:06Someone's even accused him of, um, what do you call it?
12:09Extortion.
12:10Like, you don't even know how to spell it.
12:13Let alone do it.
12:14Hey, why don't we have another drink?
12:16Sure.
12:17I'm Jenny.
12:19Um, yeah, go on then.
12:20I'll have a gin and tonic.
12:22Right.
12:22I'm just going to nip to the toilet.
12:24Yeah.
12:24Thanks, Gem.
12:25No worries.
12:29Oi.
12:29It's only a gin and tonic, Sean.
12:32No, I'm not bothered about that.
12:34Have I heard what I think I've just heard?
12:36Well, it depends what you think you've just heard.
12:38That Madam over there, her son is the one and only Brodie, the bully from the STC who has
12:45been terrorising me and my boy.
12:47Are you joking?
12:48I've just Flamin' Well reported him.
12:50If I were you, I'd Flamin' Well keep my mouth shut.
12:52They only live at the back of ours.
12:54I don't know what you think.
13:00Whoa!
13:01What the hell?
13:03I am...
13:03I'm so sorry.
13:05I...
13:05I'm really sorry, too.
13:07Guys, could you two not keep your hands off each other for five minutes?
13:10Not really.
13:11What?
13:12To be honest?
13:13I'm just gonna get dressed and leave.
13:16Oh.
13:17Oh, no, please.
13:18Don't miss out on round two of mine.
13:19Carrot?
13:20Really?
13:20No!
13:21I don't know if she still thinks we're on round two.
13:24I'm...
13:25Bedroom.
13:26Trousers.
13:33Wow.
13:34What?
13:35You've got it really bad.
13:37You look at Theo like our David looks at David the dog.
13:39Oh.
13:39No, no, not like that.
13:41It's love.
13:43Anyway, thanks for letting us...
13:45Huck up in my spare bedroom?
13:46Well, exactly.
13:47And I'm sorry, we probably should be a bit more respectful, a bit more careful.
13:51Yeah, yeah, you probably should, but thanks.
13:53I appreciate it.
13:54I could buy you a drink later.
13:55Thank you properly.
13:57I've got a date, actually.
13:58Who are you?
13:59Who are you with?
14:00Kit.
14:01Very nice.
14:03Well, maybe we could do something beforehand.
14:05Have a little pre-date pep talk.
14:07Yes to the drink.
14:09No to the pep talk.
14:12Anyway, but...
14:14Honestly, Audrey, I can't tell you how mortified I was.
14:19Well, I'm very sorry, sweetheart.
14:21Yeah, you and me both.
14:23Well, I hope that die comes out of the chiffon.
14:26Mm.
14:27I won't bank on it.
14:30So what you're going to do, are you going to call her in to sack her or just do it over
14:33the phone?
14:34Uh, well, I just think, um...
14:36Oh, come on.
14:38All right.
14:39She did phone me this morning and she was very, very, very apologetic.
14:43Yeah, I bet she was.
14:45I bet she was all sweetness and light to you.
14:47So maybe we should give her another chance.
14:49Oh.
14:50Remember how many new customers she's brought to the salon?
14:53Really?
14:54She's very popular.
14:55Audrey!
14:56Maria!
14:58I don't know what you want me to say.
15:00Everybody deserves a second chance, my love.
15:02Cheers.
15:04God, sir.
15:05I'm sure you don't want something stronger.
15:08I'm sorry.
15:09I shouldn't have dragged you there.
15:11Hey, what are you talking about?
15:12Oh, no, that's not what I meant.
15:14I wanted to go.
15:16It's just...
15:17Yeah, it was a lot.
15:18And I wanted to make sure you were okay.
15:22Yeah, in a weird way.
15:24I don't know, I do feel less alone.
15:28Slightly less bonkers.
15:30Like, what happened to me really, really wasn't right.
15:33You're not bonkers.
15:34You went through something really awful.
15:37Dee Dee, I felt vindicated for you.
15:40Those other women, they said similar things that happened to you
15:43when you were giving birth to Layla.
15:45They did, didn't they?
15:46And I know they sound like little things, but they're not.
15:51This is something bigger.
15:52Hey, how are you doing?
15:59Oh, keeping on.
16:01How's that little baby?
16:04She's okay.
16:05Oh.
16:07I heard you had a bit of a tough time giving birth.
16:10Yeah.
16:11Oh, I'm sorry.
16:14Well, do you know, it's knocking on 67 years
16:18when I gave birth to my Gail.
16:20Oh, it was her birthday yesterday.
16:24I went into labour in the afternoon
16:28when I was supposed to be watching a remake of Gone With The Wind.
16:33And I nearly lost her.
16:35I was in a terrible state.
16:37She got herself stock.
16:38What happened?
16:39Well, I don't really remember, but, um, she's here now, thank goodness.
16:44So that's all that matters.
16:50I had a stillborn baby before I had Liam.
16:54I'm so sorry, Maria.
16:57Who'd be a woman, eh?
16:59Things we have to go through.
17:00We do, don't we?
17:05Do you know what, though?
17:06I don't know any woman
17:08that haven't been through a hellish time.
17:12But we made it, didn't we?
17:14So I suppose we should be thankful for that.
17:18Yeah.
17:22But do you know what, ladies?
17:25Black women don't always escape with their lives.
17:28Sorry?
17:28What?
17:30Black women are nearly four times more likely to die
17:34in pregnancy and childbirth.
17:37And that's here in the UK.
17:39I never knew that.
17:40Neither did I.
17:43I mean, you know, I'd heard it,
17:45but I don't think I fully understood until...
17:50I knew it was hard, birth.
17:52Like you say, it's hard for all women, but...
17:57Well, it's black women it seems to be going the most wrong for.
18:00Who it's most dangerous for, and the worst bit is it is completely preventable.
18:06One glass of House Red.
18:10You are such a cheapskate.
18:12Oh, sorry. Did you ask for something to push it?
18:14You're no edit.
18:15Bankrupt me.
18:16Yeah, well, the way you're carrying on.
18:18I'm going to break the springs in me spare bed.
18:20I mean, it's not my ideal way of conducting a relationship, but we can't go to Theo's, can we?
18:28No.
18:28In my single bed, with Mary watching reruns of Top of the Pops and singing her heart out to Hot Stuff by Donna Summer is a bit of a mood killer.
18:36Oh, really, why?
18:37I do get that me and Theo at your place is not sustainable.
18:43So, what is the plan?
18:45Good question.
18:47Look, it's fine. For now, okay, just maybe can you give me a little bit more warning next time?
18:54Anyway, enjoy those first flushes of love while they last.
18:58Thanks.
18:59What?
19:00Nothing.
19:01Oh, hiya.
19:02Oh, hi.
19:03Date night?
19:04Yeah, yeah.
19:05Oh.
19:06Is he on your sod?
19:07Oh, I like what you did there.
19:08Thanks.
19:09Er, no, Theo's running late. He seems so busy at the moment. Oh, excuse me. Oversharing.
19:13Well, I... why don't you join us while you wait? Darling.
19:14Oh, darling.
19:15Oh, thank you.
19:17Oh, this is nice.
19:18It's odd.
19:19I like what you did there.
19:21Thanks.
19:22No, Theo's running late.
19:23He seems so busy at the moment.
19:25Oh, excuse me.
19:27Oversharing.
19:30Well, why don't you join us while you wait?
19:34Darling.
19:36Darling.
19:37Oh, thank you.
19:42This is nice.
19:48Oh, hi.
19:55You were right.
19:56Sorry?
19:57I need to speak to Zoe in person.
19:59What?
20:00I need to understand exactly what went on during my delivery.
20:03I'm so sorry.
20:05You know, if the hospital aren't going to hold her accountable, then I have to, don't I?
20:10For all the women who can't.
20:18Finally.
20:19I thought you'd done a bunk.
20:20Right, I've missed me bingo, and I'm starving, and these kiddies have eaten every fish finger
20:25that's going in that freezer.
20:26Sorry, Bernice.
20:27It's my fault.
20:28I've got myself in a right state.
20:29Yeah.
20:30So I heard.
20:31Is everything all right now?
20:32Well, thankfully, I've got the best mate ever, haven't I?
20:35Calmed me right down.
20:36I'm just about to stop me from smashing that snobby witch's face.
20:39I've got the best mate ever, haven't I?
20:41I've got the best mate ever.
20:42I've got the best mate ever, haven't I?
20:44Calmed me right down.
20:45And just about to stop me from smashing that snobby witch's face in, didn't you, eh?
20:49Yeah.
20:50Something like that.
20:51Yeah, I will.
20:52That's what friends are for.
20:53Right.
20:54Why don't I get us all the takeaway, eh?
20:56My treat.
20:57A way of saying a proper thank you.
20:58Oh, no, you don't need to do that.
20:59Yeah, yeah, yeah.
21:00Don't mind if you do.
21:01I'll have a Chinese, please.

23:36work don't know i'm here so keen about it
23:43how are you physically recovering i don't think i'll ever get over it emotionally
23:55i really am sorry i feel terrible about what happened but i don't know what else you want me
24:03to say i did everything i could i just want to understand why things went so wrong
24:07sometimes it just does you do everything you can but it's not always in your control
24:12if we weren't so short-staffed okay but we're supposed to have 13 midwives across the unit
24:19last week we had nine and three of them are off with stress
24:22i understand it must be really hard zoe but what happened could have been avoided it should
24:30have been avoided how what is it i'm supposed to have done wrong well for a start i don't feel like
24:37you listen to me i mean not really that's not true i kept telling you something wasn't right
24:42and you made me feel like i was making too much fuss like i should have been coping better
24:49i'm sorry i did everything i'm supposed to do you got the same treatment as everybody else
24:54what does that mean
24:56now this morning i met a room full of mums who had had similar experiences
25:02some of them a lot worse and nearly all of them were women of colour
25:09sorry what exactly are you accusing me of saying i'm racist i never said that but you can still make
25:16assumptions about someone based on racial stereotypes i was cleared of any wrongdoing by internal review
25:21i did nothing wrong i was bleeding out zoe
25:25i could have died
25:28and if you could listen to me if you'd have been more thorough i checked all the normal signs and there
25:34weren't any what signs one of the first things we look for is if a patient goes pale but in your case it
25:39i didn't go pale
