Others have mentioned the show seems like an attempt at finding a show to replace The Bill. Sadly this is not it, The Bill was essential viewing for many of us, a memorable tune, memorable characters, interesting real life stories. Cuffs is trying so hard to be politically correct that its managing to be irritating, as opposed to providing entertainment. There are more clichés then you could shake a stick at. Its aim was clearly to show the daily life of a Police team, and what they've produced is a soap opera which happen to contain Police Officers. Doctors would make more suitable evening viewing. Having lived in Brighton I applaud it for using it to film.

If only my local GP's surgery was like this, patients manage to get in, manage to see a Doctor and are greeted by a smiling receptionist. Its clear therefore that Doctors is a work of fiction, but its easy viewing. So often its thought provoking and engaging, many of the stories are believable and I'm sure based on real life happenings. It can be quite funny at times too its been a bit more serious for the last year. Doctor Carmichael makes the series for me. I almost wish this was on early evening, it would be suitable viewing for the 7 or 8 o'clock time slot. It's nice to watch a show on telly thats not full of bad language and unnecessary violence.
