St George’s Hospital hit the nation’s TV screens last night with its first episode of 24 Hours in A&E.
The nail-biting documentary series has moved from its former home, King’s College Hospital, to the major trauma centre in Tooting.
The first episode featured a fight to save the life of a woman involved in a horrific motorbike accident.
Dental nurse Kerry, 29, from Essex, arrived at the hospital by air ambulance landing on the new helipad.
She had lost control of her motorbike and severed her right leg below the knee.
A giant banner has been unveiled outside the hospital
The show also featured 11-year-old Luke, who suffered a prolonged epileptic seizure, and 19-year-old Tina who had stepped on a sewing needle.
Thank you to everyone who watched #24HoursAE last night and for letting us know what you thought. We are beaming with pride this morning!
