Strong themes and graphic surgical scenes
| Actors: | Cherie Lunghi, Sarah Smart, William Houston, Nicholas Farrell, Paul Hilton, Tom Hughes |
Featuring all 10 episodes from Casualty 1906, 1907 & 1909, this Edwardian hospital drama depicts, nurse’s ward diaries and intimate memoirs from the records of the London Hospital. Run with a will of iron by formidable Matron Eva Luckes, the hospital in London’s poverty-stricken East End deals with anything from infectious diseases to shootings. For the nurses and doctors – including Nurse Russell, Dr Culpin, Nurse Bennett, Dr Walton and the surgeons Hurry Fenwick and cocaine addicted Dr Dean, work is rough and relentless. Relationships between staff might be strictly forbidden, but romance continues to blossom away from the Matron’s gaze.

As a retired nurse, who started training in the days when we still had sawdust
to sweep-up and chrome lockers and overways to keep polished, I can appreciate how standards and conditions have changed over the years, although I think the care and dedication was in some ways better in past times.
