Freema Agyeman narrates a series focusing on the most extraordinary and eye-watering cases to come through the doors of a British A&E department and remarkable tales of medical survival from across the UK. A schoolboy cuts his head open after falling on a flower pot; a decorator lacerates his leg after trapping it in a stepladder; a boy gets a peanut stuck in his ear trying to perform a magic trick; and a woman is left with a hugely swollen knee after slipping while running for a bus. Plus, how surgeons saved the flattened foot of a bin man run over by a dustcart, and medical professionals confess the most bizarre and outrageous cases they have ever been confronted with in casualty.
