Me too....I was a child when it was first on in the UK and it was in the 80s. I didn't even realise it was already old, until my Australian cousin told me...I loved it...and I still do, for all the wooden scenes and some terrible acting. It had some great characters, gripping storylines and even brought a few issues in it, like when Helen's son was paralysed, alcoholism, rape, childhood diabetes, child abuse, fostering, gambling, the treatment of women etc...We have more sophisticated medical dramas in the world, like Greys Anatomy, and ER which I loved, but this was still good,
@@emmyjo720 I’m sure they even had a storyline where orderly Dennis Jameson was doing jury service - and the bloke on trial failed to realise that threatening jury members to come up with a not guilty verdict, so he could escape jail and go about his nefarious activities unaided was illegal - only saw a tiny bit of it, so I don’t know the outcome - must have survived, as he was in the final episode - him and the other jury members were receiving death threats from the perp, or agents acting on his behalf - probably got found out and was found guilty anyway, even if he wasn’t! That’s what you get for threatening jury members - should have left well alone!
@@arthurvasey They did, he was being blackmailed into killing a patient...There was a great episode when Dr Forest accompanied him when the police questioned him. It was one of those moments when Dr Forest was brilliant and Dennis trusted him, and knew he could never kill a patient no matter what. Dennis became a very good nurse. I find this theme tune with the names moving as so many have gone now...there is something melancholic about it.
Not bad. Grundy could have flown with that, quite easily.
Can you put all the episode from the start love to see them again

Did you used to have the BBC doctors mock end credits video, because I like the piano music at the beginning.
Cool
For a show made in the 70s and 80s, in Australia, they had a lot of women on the team and not just make up and costume
lol love it
