CASUALTY
(PG) Soap
The world's longest-running medical drama, Casualty is set in the front line of a busy, cash-strapped, fictional inner-city hospital where every day patients are rushed in for treatment. The Accident & Emergency department of Holby City is never short of action, having had to contend with three threats of closure, a fire and a bomb-and that's just the hospital itself. Laughter, tragedy, hope and despair are everyday emotions as some patients are revived, others don't make it and we see glimpses of their personal lives at crisis point. As for the staff, the pressure is always on. Sometimes people snap, or crack up, or worse...
This series the department are reeling from a tragic train crash, a new Paediatric Specialist and two new nurses join the team and as always there is unexpected romance.
