Cameras film around the clock in some of Britain's busiest A&E departments, where stories of life, love and loss unfold every day
A 56-year-old man is airlifted to Queen's Medical Centre in Nottingham after crashing his motorbike at speed. Surgeons need to act quickly to save his leg from amputation. Mike, who's 53, has injured himself after falling off a domestic bin while trying to compact rubbish at home. And Harry has badly cut his head crashing his electric scooter.
Richard is rushed to Queen's in Nottingham after collapsing suddenly at home. Doctors suspect that the 35-year-old may be going into organ failure and as they work to save his life, his mother Janette explains how the tragic loss of his cousin as a teenager affected Richard's mental health. Colin has sliced his hand open with a Stanley knife. And advanced clinical practitioner Marijke, who's on shift in the paediatrics department on the day of the King's Coronation, reflects on her journey to becoming a medic in the UK from the Netherlands and how Brexit made her question her identity.
Roofer Simon is in a critical condition after falling off a two-storey building onto concrete. Major trauma consultant Rory and the team try to assess Simon's multiple major injuries and work together to try to save his life. Ninety-seven-year-old Doris is in Resus with a worryingly fast and irregular heart rate. And in the Children's Emergency department, 20-month-old Evelyn has a burn on her finger from a mozzarella stick.
Daily life at Queens Medical Centre, Nottingham, one of the busiest A&E departments in Europe. Professional superbike rider Max is rushed in after sustaining a head injury in a high-speed motorcycle crash at a racetrack. Seventy-five-year-old Stephanie has fallen down a full flight of stairs at home, and 62-year-old Garry has come to A&E after slicing off two fingers chopping up firewood.
Staff in Major Trauma at Queen's Medical Centre in Nottingham are overstretched and pushed to the limit as they face ever-increasing patient numbers. Jeremy and Patricia are admitted with multiple injuries following a high-speed car crash. Doctors are concerned that Jeremy's history of cancer could affect his recovery, while the emergency team tries to determine the full extent of Patricia's spinal injury. Andrew, 45, is in resus after falling three metres from a ladder at work and seriously fracturing his ankle. Medics need to re-align his bones before emergency surgery.
