Bodies - Jed Muccurio

[Runningnewbie]

Just binge watched them all on Netflix, wow it’s so amazing I can’t believe I missed it when it was originally on!

has anyone else watched this?

Yes it’s very good

Yes. I was glad I won't be having any more children and have already had a hysterectomy.

Yes. Remember it well. I can also recommend the book, which Jed wrote first.

Yes. It's brilliant - best thing he's ever done for TV imho (although I'm a committed LOD fan too).

Ooh @SequinsandStilettos I didn’t know that! I’m going to have to order it now!

What did you make of the ending? Did Rob get the all clear did you think?!

Just finished this was so good I didn't want it to end.

The end was so frustrating! I usually don't mind ambiguous endings (especially in books), but this drove me nuts!!!

There’s just no closure is there! As they obviously won’t be making anymore ☹️

I couldn’t believe Donna bottling it at the end either!

Loved this. Thankful to have watched it after I'd finished having kids.

And all the subsequent maternity scandals ... I always think of this programme.

Almost perfect television.
Watched it years ago, never forgotton.

Also watch Cardiac Arrest, another Jed cracker

Cardiac Arrest was his first, and greatest. The episode where the doctor is desperately trying to get a chance to go to the loo is a classic. And features possibly the only known instance of an NHS manager doing something practical and useful.

@BaconandCheese do you know where its available to watch please?

pretty sure its all Youtube, just looked and they’ve got Series 1 as a whole episode

I binged this last year and agree it was fantastic TV. I was shocked at how graphic it was! And also very glad that I won't be having any more babies!

Also watched this in August and September and loved it. Although I wasn't keen on the ending, Rob and Polly weren't very believable as a couple and we don't know if Rob had CJD. Will be looking out for the other Jed M medical one too......

I've rewatched this series several times, fantastic viewing and very believable having worked in the NHS and public sector all my adult life! Whitman is my favourite character

Yes! In covid, I hadn't seen before. Brilliant but glad I saw it AFTER having kids .

Loved it, couldn’t stop watching it, I thought Max Beesley was brilliant in it.

Watched this for the second time recently. Frighteningly realistic in the main. The annoying ending to LoD is less surprising when you've watched the finale of Bodies.

@alloutofcareunits Whitman was amazing! A swimming pool shaped like a vag 😆 such an awful character but I loved his relationship with Polly

I saw it when first on, loved it so much I bought the dvd.

@Runningnewbie yes, so many great lines from him, I loved when the HR woman tried to get him for harassment but it was his daughter! Some really tender moments with Polly, he genuinely cared about her

I watched it when I was training as a midwife 😬
