Trauma

Totally unrealistic and annoying. Why doesn't the father blame the person who actually killed his son? How does he get into the operating theatre? Unless it turns out the surgeon was blind drunk then he was just doing his job and if he was then it would just be too predictable. Not sure where this show has to go.

I had no sympathy for the father which is a big failing for the show. Weird that itv would spend so much time promoting it. That's how far they've fallen.

I was looking forward to this show as I like both leads but that's about the only good part of this series.

The storyline is just implausible. I have family in the medical trade and they just couldn't believe how much the script just invented what would 100% never happen in a hospital.

I understand that it's a drama but a little realism wouldn't go amiss.

And that's just the first episode, which is actually the strongest episode. The finale really lets the show. There's a reason why it currently has a 4.1 rating.

Just utter nonsense; so we've already invented what you can get away with in hospitals, may as well invent what you can get away with legally i.e. what the police will do.

So, in the U.K., massively unsterile members of the public can just walk into an operating theatre and distract the surgeon without any outcry. Such absolute nonsense. Never mind the rest of it. Goes from ridiculous to complete nonsense.

I found the first episode very disappointing and most unrealistic, I mean to be able to walk in to a operating theatre and pressurise the surgeon and his colleagues and then to be able to carry on afterwards blaming the surgeon. What about the perpetrator of the horrible crime, they're the ones to blame. I know the father is in shock, any parent would, but to carry on the way he is . . . . . I found that intolerable and annoying. I won't be watching the remaining episodes. Extremely disappointing following on after the tremendous 'Next of Kin'.

I had seriously high hopes for this; I usually enjoy watching John Simm and Adrian Lester (Hustle was a particular favourite of mine), but oh dear, this was utter garbage. The only trauma was watching it. The whole thing was so totally unbelievable and absurd, to the point of being ridiculously annoying. I got as far as part way through the second episode and I could take it no more. Plot holes, procedural inaccuracies, and unbelievable characters made it totally unwatchable.
