@@Kiran.Morjaria it really was. No doubt I am hormonal post baby but, honestly, the storyline had me in tears. I’m a solicitor and we also have gruelling training. It’s not life and death, but there can sometimes be a lot of pressure, so I could relate to some of what was depicted, for example having to cancel social plans last minute, parents wanting a visit but not having the time etc. That moment when Shruti talks to the viewers and says she tried really got me. I really hope junior medics receive a lot more support and (dare I say it) encouragement nowadays.
It is so heartbreaking to see Shruti at the top of her game yet she clearly felt like she's drowning. I hope as a patient I help doctors and nurses to feel they are vital. I have really appreciated the care they have given to my relatives despite the setbacks.
Having worked in both NHS and private hospitals, I’d say this was a fair representation. Private is great so long as everything goes to plan, but if you have any sort of surgical complications you definitely want to be in the NHS.
@@Kiran.Morjaria Without writing a whole essay on it, yes they do. So all patients are thoroughly pre-assessed to reduce chances of complications, but things happen. But private hospitals aren't set up for that. They do operations (lots of hips and knees) then the rehab after, home 3 days later. Lots of day cases too. Some private have ICUs, but they're rare. So if something happens and a patient needs ICU or HDU then over to the general hospital. Post op Ileus , DVT, bleeding as seen in this video all had to be ambulanced over to the general hospital.
The part that I loved most about this series was the focus on the struggles that the Drs go through. Adam has been such an advocate for mental health support for the NHS and seeing it being portrayed like this will hopefully be such a wake up call for the public.
Loved the series, read the book first though! Fab acting, especially for the character of Shruti Acharya (Ambika Mod). Her portrayal of a person who was really struggling with their mental health. The scene where she calmly cleared her flat, emptied and washed out the milk bottle. Heartbreaking. Such a powerful series, thank you for the excellent reaction video, with where to get help if needed xx
Thanks Lola, and agreed the book and show are so different but both great in different ways. She is such a good actor and looking back you can see the progression of depression through what she does
That ending didn’t surprise me. The lack of reaction to the deserved praise she was getting and her failure to see that Adam and her consultant were showing genuine professional respect. It is not just that she was tired but that she was facing going back to square one in another unit in 2 weeks time. There was the triplets, the ectopic pregnancy, the transfer but you didn’t show the old man with diabetes who was being misunderstood telling her the NHS was lucky to have her. This was someone who should be getting over the hump she is really a doctor now and just can’t see it. Even if you could see it coming it was still a gut punch.
This episode was so so painful to watch, and rewatching it thru your reaction was no easier, I’m sat here balling again. Such a sad story line. Knowing it’s based on true events makes it even the harder to watch. I love your vids Kiran. Great work. How you Drs and RUclipsrs find the time to do both I do not know.
Hi Kiran. I recently had a baby by Caesarean section and all I can say is my experience could not have been more different to what the programme shows (thank God!) It’s clear though that the NHS is fraught with various issues. My hat’s off to all the hardworking and dedicated staff. PS really enjoying your comments.
@@Kiran.Morjaria the insights that you and Zara provide into the medical profession are fascinating. Please keep going! PS my name is Zara too (albeit spelt a little differently)
Loved this series, thanks for our mini debate the other week. I'd love to chat to you about pharmacology and NICE guidelines sometime in the future (no rush). Once I'm finished with this year! Love your content.
I'm just catching up on these videos. I knew this episode was coming up. It's just so sad, but also a very important message! Thank's for the links Kiran, but more importantly I hope this wasn't triggering for you and I hope that you're ok! Thanks for all you do!
I fainted thrice in the theatre as I was controlling the urge to defecate in the middle of the operation. After those circumstances., I never eat heavy meals before surgeries. Just sweets are enough for me XD
@@Kiran.Morjaria Needless to say I had never moved so fast up the steep hill in my life! It didn't help that I lived and worked nearby as did they so the risk was high. I now live further out and am at a different surgery but I still run into them from time to time! The will never get rid of me that easy!
Subscribing to the channel helps fund my coffee addiction, so help a brother out and hit the subscribe button ✌🏽 who’s ready for the final episode?
This episode made me cry. Shruthi was a brilliant character and the end was so heartbreaking and tragic. Stellar performance by the actress.
Honestly it was so good!!

@@zahroohussain7460 Stress is stress no matter what job you’re doing, and I think everyone needs that bit more support
@@Kiran.Morjaria so true 👍🏼
The year I left medicine two of my registrar colleagues were lost to suicide. This show is so painfully accurate.

That’s really interesting and makes sense, do people often go with complications to the NHS hospitals

Saddest episode so far. Shruti was just overwhelmed at the end 😢
SO sad 😢
Watching you watch this while knowing what is coming is bringing me to tears again!
Ahh I’m sorry, this was a hard one to watch

Such a tragic ending to such an eye opening series 😥
Agreed, I didn’t see it coming until the start of this episode

Hahaha oh no!!
Wait for this part 😄😄🔥
use alcohol rub to get rid of the ink :)
I’ve tried and it honestly did nothing, I think it’s too deep 🥲
If there is so much help as you say, then why was Adam able to give the numbers for so many suicides with doctors in the NHS.
Because it's a drama set 15 years ago?
I ran into my GP a couple of times in coffee shops. It was awkward for all parties especially as one of them literally walked into me
Aha!
@@Kiran.Morjaria Needless to say I had never moved so fast up the steep hill in my life! It didn't help that I lived and worked nearby as did they so the risk was high.

Wonder if they'll do an episode where someone suffers an adverse reaction to the jib jab and all the staff p**s themselves!
Wonder if they’ll do an episode where vaccinations save lives and help stop a pandemic, allowing people to travel and see loved ones again
@@Kiran.Morjaria Nah, that'd be too far fetched.
