I knew it wouldn't last. It was too smart, it was about smart women living a real life. It is about smart women working for men because the system makes that so. Real life stuff. I thought the network would do better than it does in the US. Sadly, it does not.

To stay on the air, I can only assume that it needed more misogyny, more women stabbing each other in the back instead of being friends and looking out for each other, more trite, probably more sex. Funnily enough, though, I don't watch that kind of "stuff", so either way I lose to network execs not paying attention to their customers - again.

I've waited years for a series to be this well done. It made me feel every emotion a human can feel and even the story lines I could never relate to or understand on a personal level had me watching with emotion. As my tagline reads ER & Call the Midwife had a baby because this series is set inside a hospital and you do get to see a baby being born, maybe more than one but it includes other medical areas so you're not sat there for a straight hour watching deliveries, it also does so well peeping into the characters personal lives. I'm hoping to see a several year series out of this one because I've waited years for a drama this good.

I can understand the points about bad acting here - the parts were cast brilliantly. Yes, it's not groundbreaking and it might not be absolutely true to life but there are certainly elements that are relatable. The storylines are shocking and hard hitting. I can't see anything else they could add here - except a longer series as some parts did feel quite rushed and some stories could have potentially had more detail added to them. That's more to the shows credit, than it's demise though. All in all, this is a great show and I do hope they bring it back for another series (or many more in the future).

Loved this. Wasn't sure what to expect with it being a British show. Usually most of these are American but I was really surprised and ended up bringing the whole thing. Really hoping for a second season. Loved Nagra from ER and she didn't disappoint in this. It's exactly what woman are supposed to try to do, juggle family life and work life or just be expected to put life in hold with no support to continue as themselves. Has the same grey's feels about it though with who is sleeping with who! Definitely worth the watch as a new mum or even a dad to help understand the roles and how it is just expected of us to manage.
