Loved this. Wasn't sure what to expect with it being a British show. Usually most of these are American but I was really surprised and ended up bringing the whole thing. Really hoping for a second season. Loved Nagra from ER and she didn't disappoint in this. It's exactly what woman are supposed to try to do, juggle family life and work life or just be expected to put life in hold with no support to continue as themselves. Has the same grey's feels about it though with who is sleeping with who! Definitely worth the watch as a new mum or even a dad to help understand the roles and how it is just expected of us to manage.

Following 3 doctors in NHS, and their busy lives, handling work and children husbands, sadness and happiness, got me hooked from the start. Very well acted.

Pleased all episodes on ITVX .

Happy marriages, unhappy . Comedy, sadness, very witty script, Great characters, shows arrogance of Consultants think they are god.

Shows stresses and strains put on Doctors .

Great performances , make you laugh and cry.

Insight into training Doctors and strains they go through.

Hope they have more series.

Very good acting, good Actresses.

Hope people will love it.

I was a nurse so can understand the runnings of busy wards .

I started out intending to watch just the first episode and ended up watching them all because it was so compelling! All 3 of the female leads were excellent in this brilliantly written series, but it was altogether a strong cast. Having worked in a hospital for some years, I found it to be very true to life and believable, giving true insight into the pressures the NHS staff are under. Well done to all concerned and I really hope there will be another series because we need to see more drama like this.

It's always a good sign when you don't want a series to come to an end and this was one of those series!

I knew it wouldn't last. It was too smart, it was about smart women living a real life. It is about smart women working for men because the system makes that so. Real life stuff. I thought the network would do better than it does in the US. Sadly, it does not.

To stay on the air, I can only assume that it needed more misogyny, more women stabbing each other in the back instead of being friends and looking out for each other, more trite, probably more sex. Funnily enough, though, I don't watch that kind of "stuff", so either way I lose to network execs not paying attention to their customers - again.

I can understand the points about bad acting here - the parts were cast brilliantly. Yes, it's not groundbreaking and it might not be absolutely true to life but there are certainly elements that are relatable. The storylines are shocking and hard hitting. I can't see anything else they could add here - except a longer series as some parts did feel quite rushed and some stories could have potentially had more detail added to them. That's more to the shows credit, than it's demise though. All in all, this is a great show and I do hope they bring it back for another series (or many more in the future).
