Phil Hammond's patients come to him, and he likes to work civilised hours. Not so for Malcolm Russell who drives over 150 miles to come to the aid of casualties who may be anywhere in Surrey. Malcolm is a member of the Surrey Air Ambulance, and for two days a fortnight he flies with them. Phil Hammond narrates the extraordinary journey of Dr Russell as he fights sleep and leaps to action as part of the helicopter crew. Produced by Lucy Lloyd.
