Critical

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.

This might not be everyone's cup of tea but I loved it.Maybe not as good as Bodies the best medical show ever but still excellent.I love the increasing tension between the main characters.I hope there is a series 2 with some more back stories maybe? I don't imagine there is such a team in existence but I don't really care.When I first starting watching I was distracted by all the fervent glances but after a while the characters became real to me and I forgave the hospital drama stereotype. Maybe Our hero Glen does a bit of too intense angst but when he smiles all is forgiven.Of course when I see them saving someone who has had no oxygen to the brain for 10 minutes I cannot help but think that that is one of the things wrong with modern medicine.This show never tells us what happens to the saved person,presumable existing on in a home somewhere without quality of life. Still the show gripped me and was compulsive watching..

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

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....

There are many medical TV shows out there but when I saw this advertised it looked different. Ever since I started watching I've been on the edge of my seat, and eagerly anticipating the next episode!! I can't rate Critical enough! In my opinion the acting of all the actors is amazing and the choreography and fluency of the characters is funny and enjoyable. The medical jargon and realism seem pretty outstanding (mainly because I don't get half of it)! But arguably most of all, the quality of the plot and the quality of the makeup for the surgery/injuries just takes my breath away!

I'm so hoping for a second season and one just isn't enough! Both me and my sister love sitting down and watching it together! And you should try it too!!
