S7 E1 • One Fine Day

The St George's trauma team fight to save the life of a young woman after a horrific motorbike accident. Dental nurse Kerry, who's 29, arrives from Essex by emergency air ambulance on the hospital's new helipad. She lost control of her motorbike, completely severing her right leg below the knee. Kerry's grandparents were always worried about her getting a motorbike and were among the first on the scene of the accident. Due to the severity of her injuries, specialists from seven different departments have been called in to treat Kerry. But the medics need to stabilise Kerry before they can see if it's possible to re-attach her leg. 'The first priority is always life. Limb comes second,' says consultant Jai. Meanwhile, 11-year-old Luke is brought in to the department after suffering a prolonged epileptic seizure. Luke has a form of complex epilepsy that has left him with severe learning difficulties and he has up to three seizures a week. While the paediatric team stabilises Luke, his mum and dad discuss their love for their son and the challenges of living with his condition. And 19-year-old Tina comes to A&E after stepping on a sewing needle, which is stuck inside her foot. But she seems more keen to take advice from her mum in Bulgaria than from Mo, the doctor treating her.

Meanwhile, 53-year-old teacher Dave has facial injuries after riding his new bicycle into the back of a stationary car in Richmond Park. The crash is a wake-up call for Dave. 'It makes you realise you are quite vulnerable,' he says. 'Maybe I'll go back to golf and fishing!' And 30-year-old adrenaline junkie and ex-Royal Marine Richard has badly dislocated his thumb after falling off a bicycle. As the emergency team try to realign the tip of his thumb, Richard enjoys the effects of the pain-killing gas and air while reflecting on his time in the marines and the evolutionary benefits of risk.

Tree surgeon Paul, 38, is rushed into Resus by ambulance from Kent after falling 25 feet from a tree. He has a head wound and is complaining of shooting pains in his back and pins and needles in his feet. Doctors are concerned that he may have injured his spine. 'When the patient comes in if they're complaining of pins and needles my heart always sinks' says orthopaedic doctor Mike. 'It could be a sign that there is trauma to the spinal cord which can cause paralysis'. A CT scan shows that Paul has broken a vertebra in his back and medics are concerned fragments of bone could damage his spinal cord. Meanwhile Anthony, 66, who's recently been diagnosed with Parkinson's and Prostate cancer, has fallen down fifteen stairs at home. He's very frail and a scan reveals that he's broken some ribs, puncturing a lung and will need a chest drain. His wife Jennifer reflects on how they met through a dating agency in 1975. 'We met up in London somewhere. And he had this funny tweed coat with a belt round the middle and I thought 'I don't like that!'
