Synopsis
Each programme in this series, filmed in one of Britain's busiest A&E departments at King's College Hospital, London, focuses on the dramatic stories of patients treated within the same 24-hour period. In this week's programme the medical team, patients and their families face the meaning of life and death. Seventy-seven-year-old former motorbike racer John has been sent to A&E with his wife Brenda after a routine health screening revealed a potentially-deadly 'Triple A' - abdominal aortic aneurism - a dramatic swelling of the main artery that could burst at any moment, making him a 'walking timebomb'. The only option is major surgery, which could be dangerous at his age. Meanwhile, 92-year-old widow Eileen has been brought into hospital after falling and spending the night on the floor. Consultant Liz is worried Eileen may have broken her hip and wants to keep her in overnight to make sure she's fine. 'Lots of times there's nothing I can do,' says Liz. 'We are meant to grow old, we are meant to get ill and we are meant to die. I can fiddle about at the edges of that, but there's no sort of magical response in here in this hospital that can change that.' Amongst the other patients is Claire. a year ago her boyfriend, a medical student, was killed instantly while cycling to lectures, and now she's been injured on her bike. Meanwhile medical technician Amanda and mobile catering assistant Pritpal talk about the roles they play in helping people to get better. Series.
