I can't say how much this series is amazing. It is British which for me isn't a bad thing. It covers health care for women & babies throughout the early 20th century. Really covers the history of how their medical system evolved. I am an American and have great respect for what they did & still try to accomplish. It does show some flaws in their system. The acting is top notch. Throughout watching, I became emotional with the characters and unlike Hollywood series, some of the main characters come & go. Also like the fact that they don't all look like models. I highly recommend this series!!!!

If you are going to write and produce a series based on an investigative team; please leave out the teenager with the stereotypical teenage angst. I couldn't wait to fast forward past it. The main character tells her co-workers, we have a limited amount of time to save these passengers but then goes off on little side missions & has to deal with a horrible step child. Then you begin to get into what is happening with the crash & the camera switches to the kid doing stupid teen stuff and being very annoying. Why can't you have 1, just 1, series where the main character is happily married & the kid isn't a total screw up. They do exist. I don't mind strong female characters at all but they have to have tragic personal lives. I've decided not to pursue this series any longer.

I love the way this British film was very happy to show American prejudices and faults from history but completely ignore Britain's. The British empire was fraught with prejudice against Black's, Asians, Irish, etc...... They didn't pass equal rights until 1965. Women in England were just as much second class as any where else. Ridiculous. I thought it was just Hollywood who loved to rewrite history, glad to see this idiocy is everywhere.
