Yorkshire Air 999 returns to the skies this Friday, putting viewers right alongside the advanced paramedics who take on the region’s most remote and high-stakes medical emergencies. Airing at 9 PM ET on Really, “Race Against Time” (Season 2, Episode 2) tracks two critical calls that demand quick thinking, precise skill, and a whole lot of nerve.
One call sends the air ambulance team scrambling to a remote house where a man is in cardiac arrest. Minutes matter, and the episode looks set to detail the pressures and procedures involved in getting critical care to a location far from traditional emergency services. Meanwhile, a separate incident in Scarborough—an electric bike crash—presents another set of challenges, as paramedics face an open leg fracture and the potential for further complications.
The series, which gives up-close access to the world of the U.K.’s air medics, doesn’t just focus on the blood and guts of trauma care—it also explores the human cost of these everyday heroics, highlighting the Yorkshire landscape’s unforgiving beauty and the toll it takes on those who live and work within its shadow.
Expect a solid dose of both technical medical know-how and plain old human courage as Yorkshire Air 999 captures the fight for life at 3,000 feet.
“Yorkshire Air 999” airs Friday at 9:00 PM ET on Really.
