Channel 5’s Casualty 24/7: Every Second Counts returns with a new round of high-stakes medical drama on Wednesday at 9 PM. Season 9, Episode 13 finds Barnsley Casualty at its breaking point, with ambulances queuing up and the department overflowing, while a fresh crop of new doctors faces a trial by fire.
Among the recent arrivals is Doctor Martha Ellis-Parkinson. Adding a twist of local fate, Dr. Ellis-Parkinson was born at Barnsley Hospital, and her first patient is a 78-year-old ex-miner suffering chest pains. Meanwhile, the resus team gears up for a patient with internal bleeding following a ruptured artery.
Over in the waiting room, new Specialist A&E Doctor Marianne Feghali works to stabilise an 82-year-old with heart failure who’s now vomiting blood. The medical staff juggle an influx of patients, testing both resilience and resourcefulness.
As the chaos swells, Emergency Nurse Practitioner Tony attempts to extract a foreign object from eight-year-old Benjamin’s ear – proving that in A&E, the spectrum of emergencies never ceases to surprise.
Casualty 24/7 airs Wednesday, 4 June at 9:00 PM on Channel 5.
