The unique access observational documentary series returns for two brand new series and follows the extraordinary ‘chopper doctor’ flying teams who are making medical history. Through skills often learnt on the battlefield, these men and women are delivering for the first time ‘a hospital to the field’ emergency service across Britain.

What’s unique about these Helimedic units is that they carry doctors, not simply paramedics, meaning the hospital A&E effectively comes to the roadside or the mountain. This truly is pioneering medicine on the front line.

Using high-tech lifesaving procedures, new technologies and advanced field surgery, patients who would often die before they reach hospital are now being saved. Follow the inner workings of this unique unit and witness first hand the drama and cutting edge science and technology being put into practice.
