- Season 1 Episode 1
David Campbell is a young houseman - a junior doctor - at Edinburgh's Royal Infirmary. Working long hours and at the beck and call of his somewhat slapdash superiors and numerous patients, he finds some respite from all that in drink and sexual escapades with some of the nurses on the wards. He is particularly attracted to Nurse Joan Wasson, but is also prey to other predatory nurses and sisters, especially when Joan later falls ill with appendicitis and is hospitalized. Learning on the wards through trial and error, he also finds himself having to deal with his superior Dr Henry Creech's mistake when a noted poet, Hamish Quothquan, is rushed in with stomach pains by his granddaughter Alison from a misdiagnosis. But worse is to come when an outbreak of hepatitis hits the hospital and claims the lives of some of the patients. As staff try to work out how it is spreading, not even the doctors or staff are safe from it's deadly infection.
