    Over the past week; I think I have seen about 20 trailers for this on BBC1, which I don't think, any other 'BBC3' programme, has ever had.:cool:

    Me!
    This program makes me glad i'm not a doctor, i couldn't handle a stressful job like that with peoples lives in your hands every day! Some of them are 2 years younger than me, and i couldn't imagine doing what they are doing.

    I couldn't believe the guy (Aki?) who was giving out patient details over the phone, even i know that you don't do that!! :eek:

    I'm sure shows like this inspire all the school kids desperately trying to get on to medical degree courses. It looks fun in a strange sort of way...if you can stand blood, which I can't!! :D

    Is it me, or was the girl doctor with the posh voice really familiar? I think she's been on something somewhere before..

    I watched the previous series of this and wondered if there was a reason they put it on directly after Holby. Great start to the new series.
    Many years ago I had a trainee phlebotomist try at least 10 times, 5 in each arm, before I pleaded for someone to take over. I felt like a real pin cushion.

    If you enjoy Junior Doctors, you should watch Confessions of a Nurse on More4 directly after at 10pm.

    It shows the sharp end of hospital life.

    Some people on Twitter were talking about her as if they'd seen her before somewhere but I don't know. Hope she's not a fame junkie or she won't make it as a doctor.

    I like it, my sister is a Doctor so we always think its funny to see the environment she works in.

    How can that really young guy be a doctor already?

    That was really good, wish my Mum could watch it she was a nurse for over 30 years - she lives overseas now.

    Yeah, Andy's only 22 but soon to be 23 and I think it takes 6 years or so from starting your medical degree. So it looks like he was at least a year ahead at school. I'm sure he'll be a fine doctor but 22 seems too young to be a doctor in my book. Academic excellence does not alone make a good doctor. Mid 20s and having lived a bit like the rest of them seems about the right age to start.

    I agree my sister did a management degree then decided she wanted to be a doctor so was a bit older than the other students but she found that helped. Also she was/is a lot more of a people person whereas some who have always been pushed towards medicine are more worried about the academic side. Don't get me wrong my sister did really well but wanted to be good with the patients as well.

    Yes that's what we thought that he must have been at least a year ahead and if he did a 5 year course (as some are) then that works
