    Ambika Mod’s final scenes are so incredible; they really capture that sense of hopelessness and despair to the point of becoming numb. Shruti was the most relatable character, a fantastic and true representation of all junior doctors.

    Most people are probably thinking this is just a dramatisation but those of us who work/worked for the NHS know that what's depicted is all too real and if people continue to vote for government that effectively defunds the NHS like they have been doing for the last decade you will find out to your cost how real it is.

      Going back 30 years when my dad was in hospital, 6 on the ward, the junior doctor fell asleep mid conversation. They said he was never away from the place, worked all hours. And none of them woke him up because they felt sorry for him and they all liked him.

      I'm a nurse in the NHS and I loved this show, as well as the book it's based on for how funny but also how truthful it is.

It’s been a traumatic start to my career and although I enjoyed the first episode, it was emotionally draining. I need to wait for a bit to make sure I’m in the right headspace to watch the next one 🥺

      @@enlathestrange Please do, it's a lot to take on when you're not feeling great yourself.
      I felt the same when I read the book, then went to see the live show and had to try not to break down in the theatre. I looked around and realised that while other people were clearly sad, I was one of the few people desperately trying to hold it together. That's the moment I realised that I need to be careful with myself and recognise when not to consume media like this.
      Like I said, I really love everything Adam Kay has done, which makes it hard to avoid his content because I do enjoy it. But recognising when it's too much is so important.
      Take care of yourself, lovely ❤

    The writing by Adam Kay was so true of the NHS , I can relate as have been a nurse for 30 years in the NHS. Black comedy with pathos and heart. The best writers are those that write what they know and Adam Kay had seen it , done it and taught one !👍👍

I knew a couple of “non reassuring Traces” in my time as a midwife so that made me smile.

    What I love about him is that he's not "thirsty" Of fame. He turned down freddie mercury's biopic role, and newt scammander role from fantastic beasts, and he turned down marvel when they offer him the role of sersi from the eternals. He's not afraid of rejecting big companies or francise, and kept humble.
    He really controlled his fame and career. Some of my british friends who went to acting school says that he's their role model, even most of their teachers adores him and makes him as an example "what a professional actors looks like"

      This has just been premiered on BBC in UK. There maybe a wait before any other channel shows it.
