I did! I thought it was soooooo brilliant. Best thing on the telly for ages.

All that stuff about the turd!!!!

And when the dead lady's sister came in just as they were pigging out on the cake.

Blood fantastic programme! Seemed so true to life - not that I've ever worked in a hospital.

It was fantastic-had been waiting for it to come on after reading an interview with Jo Brand @ it but it was even better than I had hoped.

DS refused to go to bed once he saw the first few mins. We all loved it here

Made me laugh like a drain several times. Jo Brand was great, actually they all were. I might watch it again on iplayer.

giddykipper · 09/07/2009 19:40

Very very good

I think Jo Brand did the nurse who is a glorified dogs body very well. Her face was a picture at times and when she offered the consultant her stools for her research was priceless. Then the consultant asking for the colour analysis and jo said "brown"! She seemed to be the only member of staff with any sense and actually spoke to the patients. Maybe she was meant to be an auxialiary then as general nurses too busy.

NorbertDentressangle · 09/07/2009 21:53

I also thought it was very funny.

I love Jo Brand.

sunfleurs · 15/07/2009 15:24

I sky + this and watched it this morning. So, so funny, I was just giggling quietly to myself throughout the whole thing and it takes ALOT to make me laugh.

The bit where they are discussing sedating the asian woman for just talking was just so funny, I am laughing to myself now typing this.

MaryAnnSingleton · 15/07/2009 18:48

on tonight !!

It was really good ... the 'sad' thing is that JB was a nurse - perhaps it is drawing from her experiences ???

TsarChasm · 15/07/2009 19:06

I thought it was good too - well JB. Did she write this?

I was just flipping channels and caught it - I didn't fancy it from the write up. But yes it's good in a dark way.

Even the colour is bled out of the filming it to give it a grim look.

I liked it when they were translator was on the phone.

MaryAnnSingleton · 15/07/2009 20:21

yes, she and the woman who plays the sister and the doctor wrote it

MaryAnnSingleton · 16/07/2009 08:56

I came across this by accident and thought it was very funny. Have now sky+ it. I thought some bits were worryingly true to life.

southeastastra · 23/07/2009 20:27

this is getting better and better, well done for jo brand for showing off all her glorious eye bags too
