10/10
A rare gem
13 February 2022
And pretty much flawless. Everything rings painfully true, but unlike with so many fact-based dramas, there's a real story here, as well as a damning indictment of healthcare underfunding and worker exploitation. With both the BBC and the NHS under threat from the relentless force of impersonal stupidity that is the Tory Party, it's good to see the one so passionately and brilliantly speak out for the other. Performances are universally excellent, characters are exceptionally well-rounded and complex and the lacerating hellishness of it all is leavened, for us and just about for them, with precisely the right degree of darkly acid humour.
