RFDS

This show has a very relaxing tempo. A female doctor leave a personal scandal in England to a more relaxed yet adventurous life in Australia.

The show honestly approaches moral issues, in a relaxed yet entertaining way.

Its like: ER = In a Plane = In Australia (Enough said)

This is one of the best "doctor" shows that I have seen! The acting is outstanding. The stores are great. Realistic. Most of the other medical/ police/ first responder shows that I have watched and liked (to varying degrees) don't measure up to RFDS.

I'm American, really like Australian, British, New Zealand shows. Good job!

Love seeing the landscapes in this series, and the light, so different from my world.. I hope it's renewed. They could certainly find enough stories to last for decades. Lots of different plot threads off of each character, too. I love that this world is so different from mine.

Keeping fingers crossed.

I love this show, I cannot stress that enough. It's brilliant. I'm old enough to remember The Flying Doctors, what you might call the original RFDS and the flame was passed on to an equally entertaining show that displays what life in the harshness of the outback can be...the good, the bad and the type that tears your heart out of your chest when you witness it.

The characters are really great, contemporary, kind, funny and somewhat tongue in cheek at times, but we'll thought out and we'll acted.

This show is a real true blue pleasure to watch and it tips it's hat to the real people who work for the Royal Flying Doctors and the great work they do in the rough outback environment.

I agree with the reviewers who give a lower rating because of the first episode (which essentially tries to cram too much in at once), however if you give the show a chance it does develop into something much better.

If you are a fan of light hearted dramas such as 1000 words - i think you will like this. Several of the actors are established Aussie actors who you will recognise if you have watched many other recent dramas - including Five Bedrooms.

The story revolves around the RFDS and the crisis they face, however the show deals with this in such a way that you can't help connect with those affected.

It is sweet and heart felt and a nice light easy watch. It keeps out modern politics and all the social nonsense you watch TV to avoid.

The only annoyance with the show is the English Doctor's son. He is just a whiney child who acts far younger than his age. The show doesn't really connect with his character, and the actor who plays him is so wooden that you are glad of that !
