Charity Wakefield, Cherie Lunghi, Jason Watkins, Nicholas Farrell, Sarah Smart, Tom Riley, William HoustonOriginally produced by BBC Studios in 2006.Romance, surgery and history combine in this vivid, atmospheric drama based on the lives and case notes of doctors, nurses and patients at the Royal London Hospital a century ago. Set in the heart of the East End amid horrific danger and poverty, when illnesses such as tuberculosis, pneumonia, measles, syphilis, diphtheria are rife, Whitechapel life tumbles through the emergency room doors daily in victims of violence, suicide, drink and drugs.

Through extreme hardship shines a spirit of forbearance and self-sacrifice that seems remarkable now.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
