Psychos

This programme never got the recognition it deserved The cast were fantastic They gelled and had chemistry Storylines delivered with a major kick to the emotional nuts Coming from Glasgow, it was always good to have stuff set there As a psychiatric nurse...... its just wow

Very well done Very highly recommended

A screaming endorsement from this nurse.

I'm a mental health nurse and this is the only TV programme that's ever got close to how it really is. Brilliant just a pity that there was no second series. Bonus is Douglas Henshall is gorgeous lol 😆

An absolute gem. Watched it originally but recently found it again online. I work in mental health and this is spot on. Fantastic.

Since this series has long been and gone, and several other reviewers have described it perfectly, I'll just make a few brief points. Anyone who has ever spent time working in the environment this series is set in will appreciate just how hard it can be to distinguish between Doctors and Patients. Psychos works because it captures the very essence of the subject. At the same time it allows both the story line and characters to develop in a way that pushes the very edges of the boundaries of reality. Are units like this staffed by people like this? No. Does the program portray the essential nature of all those involved? Absolutely.

It's worth pointing out that the series is now available on DVD.

Well worth watching if you like medical dramas. Slight alternative to the usual ER, Casualty type, which makes it refreshing and interesting. From working in medical environments, it's easy to understand the pressures staff are put under. The acting makes the drama both enjoyable and draws in your attention. Got to say though it's certainly not improved my confidence about the mental health placement I start in two weeks.

For those wanting to watch it, it's on 4oD, where I found it. Really is a pity though that it isn't available on DVD and that there isn't anymore.
