I am disappointed that this won't go to season 2 as it's one of the best medical dramas I have seen; the character development in between these crucial, life-saving, actions is brilliant, the script, the cast, the tempo... perfect. It is no cliché drama with awful love- story tactics that make the medical interventions a welcome break – every aspect is very, very well crafted. While the genre is hard to get right if it's about one team (in this case critical emergencies), which means pretty much 2 or 3 things that can be done to help the patient and a LOT of beeping, this manages to hold its own and brilliantly.
British do drama series very well and this is a prime example. Still very disappointed with no season 2....

Cannot believe yet another great series that's cancelled WHY!!!??? Lennie James shows what a versatile actor he is and extremely talented, this is a great realistic series about a trauma team who have the what they call the golden hour on the clock to stabilise the patient, as well as lots of realistic trauma scenes there is also a back story of a lost love and hospital politics. Such a great show and yes I've said it twice but I'm dropping the realistic bomb again , as an sfx artist I can appreciate the talent and work that went into the scenes . Highly recommend this
If I was rating just one of the episodes I would probably rate it at 9 or 10. The only reason I dropped to overall rating to 7 is that each episode is basically the same, concentrating on the medical trauma and the intervention. There is a slight story running in the back ground but it´s weak at best. A stronger underlying story would make this series so much better. An excellent example of that is the series Bodies which is in the same genre but because it had a great story as well as the raw medical content it was just brilliant. But even as only a seven, still well worth watching.
Incredible surgery scenes, so realistic, thriller concept, lots of blood and gore not for the faint-hearted, intriguing and major love story gone bad in the background. Love it <3
I love Leni James and all the stuff of his I have seen and would love to see more of him and this series. If some think there are things wrong with it, why can't those things be fixed and it brought back.
