Well, where's that husband of yours?
Out on his rounds?
Yes, I expect so.
- Plenty of patients?
- Not as many as we'd like.
Oh, really?
There's been a lot of trouble.
What sort of trouble?
Oh, I...
I expect Peter would rather tell you
about it himself.
I'll see to the kettle. Excuse me.
You go and have a gossip
about your old school days.
I'll slip into the village
and see what I can find out.
All right, Father. Don't be long.
- Charlie.
- Aye, aye.
Will you have
a drink with me, Martinus?
Thank you, but I'll buy my own.
Beer, Tom.
I... I did my best for him.
I'm sorry.
- Wasn't good enough, was it?
- Apparently not.
What do you think it were, Doctor?
- That killed him?
- Aye, that killed him.
What was it that killed them all?
I don't know.
You don't know.
And you call yourself a doctor?
You won't let me find out.
If you let me carry out one post mortem.
It's no good cutting him up
after he's dead. It's too late.
- You're being ridiculous
- Ridiculous is it?
out there.
And twelve others like him. Twelve.
How long have you
been with us, Doctor?
Twelve months, isn't it?
That's one a month.
- Steady, Tom
- One a month.
Not a very good record, is it?
Are you trying to say
no one died before I came here?
At least we knew what they died from.
And if I was to tell you they died
from swamp fever or the plague
or some other nonsense,
would that make you happier?
- Yes, if it were the truth.
- Well, it wouldn't be the truth.
I'm not going to start telling
a lot of ridiculous lies
just to keep you people satisfied.
It's not good enough.
Oh, so we are not good enough
for you now?
- I didn't say that.
- it's what you meant, though.
Well, let me tell you something, Doctor.
You're not good enough for us.
Do you understand me?
You're not good enough!
- Ah, Doctor, there you are.
- Sir James!
- Good afternoon, gentlemen.
- Good afternoon.
We've met before
in rather distressing circumstances.
May I now introduce myself?
Sir James Forbes, Professor
of Medicine at London University.
And this young man was
my cleverest and most able pupil.
I hope you realize
how lucky you are to have him here.
Landlord, see these gentlemen
have a drink with me, will you?
Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.
Come on, Peter,
are you ready?
- Good afternoon, gentlemen.
- Good afternoon.
- Sir James, what are you doing here?
- You've lost weight, my boy.
- Alice not feeding you properly?
- Yes, but...
- Aren't you glad to see me?
- You've no idea.
- Why have you come?
- You wrote to me.
It's very kind of you
to come all this way, sir.
I've just seen Alice.
