This is enjoyable enough but make no mistake it is not a ''drama'' its a soap opera set in a hospital. It has all the old soap opera clichés like when two characters are innocently comforting each other and they get ''caught'' they behave like they are guilty of something instead of just acting normal (if you have nothing to feel guilty about you don't act guilty right? Well not in the world of soaps) or a character is in a major crisis and after a pep talk they go back to normal the next episode as if it never happened. Or they are hard working and seem on top of things at work but they are hiding a troubled personal life. Also the heavy focus on the personal lives of the staff reveal generic soap opera plots which are not dependent on the hospital setting.
Still its fun spotting all the familiar faces from shows such as Prisoner, Home and Away and Neighbours who turn up in every episode. Judith McGrath is also very good as cynical Von.
