What an amazing program! Really does show us what our NHS can do for us and what great Dr's and paramedics we have.

Poor Julian, all that suffering just by coming off his bike. That A&E doctor undoubtedly saved his life by sensing something wasn't right and not just taking a clear CT for granted.
Amazing staff from the first responders right through to the physiotherapists.
Watched up to the bit were cattle grid blokey started exhibiting very worrying symptoms.
I'll watch it later, was this a BBC One program transplanted to BBC Two because of the Olympics?
The doomy music and voice over style and the way it's edited doesn't seem BBC Two, it's grating actually.
I think it was on bbc 2 for the 1st series, not sure round about a year ago. This is a series of 4 episodes.
I was struck by the fact that Julian's case (the cattle grid cyclist) appeared to be the least life-threatening of the three, although pretty nasty, but turned out to be the most life-changing.
I agree did seem to be lest life threatening and what superfab alert dr.
the policeman was lucky in the sense he was with colleques whom knew 1st aid and being in gym it likely had defibrillator which would also increased his chances
Hats off to the other Neurosurgeons too for the call who was hit be the car. She has a longer road to recovery but she is getting there. Again she owes her life to some very clever people.
Poor guy.
As for the guy thrown from the horse - really not sounding good. Can't even move his fingers.
The sad thing was he knew what the deal was before they mentioned it
" its going to be my neck " waa a sad sentence
Agreed. He wasn't a fool and the fact that he could not even move his fingers must have been terrifying, though he was very self-controlled about it all.
Looks like someone else gets run over by a bus next week.
When is the next episode by the way its not on next Tuesday?
I'm puzzled because I thought it was the last one TBH but noted it's not on next week. I also thought there was no more Eat Well for Less but at the end of this weeks it showed next weeks prog. However, my planner does not show another episode neither does a search of the EPG so I don't know what the heck is going on.
