The fast-paced series following UK paramedics is back with more stories about life on the front line. It follows 15 ambulance teams based in several emergency hubs, capturing medical emergencies happening simultaneously across the West Midlands region. Footage from body cams and cameras rigged inside the ambulances is cut with retrospective interviews, offering unprecedented access to the action and challenges. Cases include a man resuscitated after a heroin overdose, a woman about to give birth and a 19-year-old with potentially fatal sepsis. Also the desperately sad story of a man who will take his final journey when he’s moved from his home to a hospice, and the emergency call every paramedic dreads: a patient having a major heart attack, seconds away from a cardiac arrest.

Returning to the wards of London’s Great Ormond Street hospital, this series observes the decision making among the various highly-skilled teams working on the wards to see the many challenges they face at the cutting edge of children’s medicine. Following challenging individual cases, this third series reveals the complexity and many difficult decisions involved in research, clinical medicine and management of perhaps the best children’s hospital in the world.
In the Bone Marrow Transplant Unit at Great Ormond Street Hospital, doctors strive to save the lives of children with life-threatening congenital diseases. They must attempt treatments which have very uncertain chances of success and can even threaten the lives of the children they are trying to save.
Herb is just five years old and has a condition called Nemo Syndrome, an immune disorder which means his body cannot fight infections. Professor Paul Veys tells his parents that Herb is unlikely to reach the age of 10 unless he is treated - but the treatment itself will put his life at risk. Both the doctors and Herb's family face an acute dilemma: should they go ahead?
For Keano, who's nine, the dilemma is even more critical. Suffering from a condition called congenital neutropenia, he also needs a bone marrow transplant. But unlike Herb, there is no well-matched donor for him in any database in the world. The risk that he will not survive treatment is a daunting 30%. His mother must decide whether to risk going ahead to give her child the chance of a future.
Teigan, who's 10, suffers from a condition called SCID - Severe Combined Immunodeficiency. Teigan's health is too fragile to even attempt a bone marrow transplant, so the only option for her is a pioneering treatment - gene therapy. Professor Bobby Gaspar has been instrumental in developing gene therapy at Great Ormond Street over the last 15 years. It offers hope for children who were previously untreatable but the uncertainties are even greater than conventional treatment.
