Getting On - Series 2 DVD

| DVD

Devised and written by its three principal cast Getting On is a funny refreshing and improvised look at the staff 'getting on with it' in an overlooked corner of the health service: care for the elderly. It may be the least glamorous area of the hospital but in this comedy of characters the staff are doing the best they can in a place where difficult choices are the order of the day. It's the scene that awaits all of us - whether we like to admit it or not.

All six episodes from the second series of the BBC medical sitcom directed by Peter Capaldi and following the fortunes of the staff on an NHS hospital ward. Beset by killer viruses, egomaniacal consultants and endless paperwork, the overworked and underpaid staff of ward B4 struggle on regardless. Snowed under by her workload, neurotic Ward Sister Flixter (Joanna Scanlan) is forced to rely on the talents of seen-it-all-before nurse Kim Wilde (Jo Brand), while trying to avoid the attentions of over-egging Ward Doctor Pippa Moore (Vicki Pepperdine).
