11 - 7: Lonely Hearts

The new series of the RTS award-winning documentary continues to follow patients treated in the same 24-hour period at St George's Hospital in south-west London, which has one of the most advanced and busiest A&E departments in the world; it's a place where stories of life, love and loss unfold every day. Beth, who's 68, is rushed to A&E after falling down a flight of stairs and breaking her ankle; her foot is hanging off and the bone is sticking out. Beth, who's originally from Canada, has been living on her own since her husband died recently. Doctors manipulate her ankle back into place and she faces emergency surgery and intensive physiotherapy. She's determined to walk again.
