Career-themed TV and podcasts suitable for a 10-year-old

[Krida]

DD 10 loves a good medical drama and documentaries. I've rewatched 2 episodes of the Good Doctor with her, after I vetted them first. It got me thinking about how these are fun to watch together, mildly educational, and demo some actual medical rarities and discuss anatomy and maybe even demo a career. We have watched other Dr and vet episodes of shows. But I can't think of any such non-medical shows - eg: she liked forensics and I can't remember now but we watched one episode of a forensics show. She also loves spies and detective dramas (we've all watched Crookhaven, Lady Grace). Teaching - we've done. Engineering - there is a lot out there. She - for now - maybe wants to be a psychologist and/or possibly do something neuro, haha. But I can't for the life of me think of anything in this space that is suitable for kids this age or younger. Any ideas? Any other such career or discipline-led shows OR podcasts that are also fun? Happy to share suggestions we've come across too! :-) Thanks!

try in bbc Operation Ouch!

Yes, we've loved it since she was 1! Amazing programme.

I would suggest Mr Bates vs the Post Office, the Brief and 24 Hours in Police Custody for legal/police stuff but she might be a bit young, especially for the final one.

There's a BBC series about therapy called change your mind, change your life with that's supposed to be good, but again, you'd have to assess whether it's suitable for her age. (https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002bky9)

My DC loved documentaries like Saving Lives at Sea which is primarily about the RNLI but often intersects with other kinds of jobs and uniformed public service like the Coast Guard or paramedics.

Have you considered reality shows like the airport based ones where they unpack bags or where the traffic police chase criminals? I’d probably not go for the bailiff ones because house evictions shouldn’t be entertainment.

Also check channel 4 on demand for this

I can’t remember content well enough to reminded of suitable for a 10 year old, but maybe vet some of these:

House (diagnostic medicine)
The Rookie (police)
9-1-1 (a bit more silly show but emergency services)
The Mentalist (Detective with a “psychic” who basically uses psychology to help the police)
Lie to Me (described as body language House!)
Castle (Detective)
Bones (forensic anthropologist and FBi)

Ooohhh some of those sound good! Thanks!
