Back with a bang!
Sleepin_Dragon5 June 2017
Harry and Nikki enjoy a day at an air show, tragedy strikes on their return, when the pair witness a freak accident, an out of control helicopter crashes straight into a camp for failed refugees. The pair are quickly on site and witness the fallout.

Series eleven was in my opinion where the show started to up it's game, it had flagged a little over the previous few years, but Series 11 came back with a bang, new and updated opening credits, a new operating theatre, and a big story. Big special effects too, the plane crashing, and scene of carnage look very realistic.

One of the more memorable opening sequences, this one has always stuck in my mind.

An incredibly sad episode, very gritty and hard hitting, the story of those poor immigrants is a tragic one. It has a big budget feel to it. 8/10.

Confrontation With Military Brass
Hitchcoc20 March 2019
Harry and Nikki are on a little date. While returning, they hear a helicopter overhead. It crashes into a former RAF airfield, into buildings holding refugees, ready to be returned to their countries. Harry manages to get to the pilot who insists it wasn't his fault. He is taken into custody. The remainder of the episode is a series of unofficial evidence gathering efforts. Since the whole thing is immediately explained as pilot error, Harry takes it upon himself to put down this finding (or non-finding). I'm sure we are going to get into some pretty political stuff in Episode 2 of the 11th season.
