Now, do you know which mosquitoes
transmit disease to man?
1:18:07
Malaria.
The female anopheline mosquito.
1:18:10
Yes, a theory first postulated
in 1894 by Sir Patrick Manson.
1:18:16
Manson... I remember him well.
1:18:19
Charming man. Charming. We met at the
BMA meeting in 1914... or was it '13?
1:18:26
Well, it might have been '19.
Now, how do you diagnose malaria?
1:18:31
Erm... Spleen?
1:18:34
Yes, that's right. Oh, very good,
my boy. Very good. Your question.
1:18:41
What is the commonest cause
of acute heart failure?
1:18:46
Shock, sir. Severe shock.
1:18:49
Now, my lad. Take a look in there
and tell me what you can see.
1:18:53
Be careful. Those things cost money.
1:18:58
Well, what is it?
1:19:00
- Trichinosis, sir.
- What?
1:19:06
It's some kind of worm.
I can't quite recognise them.
1:19:09
Worms?
1:19:12
Perhaps if you removed your tie from
the field of vision, it would help.
1:19:19
Sorry, sir.
1:19:23
That would be the worms turning,
I presume.
1:19:33
Well, my boy. Where do you come from?
1:19:36
St Swithins, sir. Number 306.
1:19:38
Right. Now, you see these screens?
1:19:41
Well, behind these
are ladies and gentlemen
1:19:44
who volunteered to be prodded around
by you blighters,
1:19:47
so you can tell us what's wrong.
1:19:49
You go to number ten,
make a thorough diagnosis,
1:19:53
and I'll come along and see
what you've rooted out.
1:19:59
- Hello, guv'nor.
- Briggs! What are you doing here?
