jo brand getting on hospital comedy

[DarkEyedGirl97]

'there's a shit on the chair.' first line in and I'm pissing myself laughing

[dollyknockers]

Reminds me of training as a SRN way back in the early eighties. Things like this would happen and the only people who would believe you was other nurses. It was like working in a sitcom.

[wownicecarpet]

The movement of the camera is so distracting

[nonameblues]

Anyone who has ever worked on a nhs ward can emphasise with this........

[KidInsight]

Nice one for uploading I may never have found this show otherwise.

[wilkrazor2]

Yet another great comedy idea from the British that the unimaginative American entertainment industry will no doubt rip off.

[SoflesViolence]

This is better than the office

[Liz25able]

Brilliant ....I work in age care.. bowel charts so part of my day

[QANTAS330]

inspired tv - brilliantly written observed and acted -

[adders42]

Do we really tranquillise someone that's just talking out loud?

As a former Psych nurse, sadly yes they do, too damn often!

[pyglett]

Go into any NHS hospital, and you'll find a Hilary, a flixter and very definately, a Dr. Moore. BEWARE!!!

[BillyfromConsett]

To me, the camerawork make it unwatchable.

[violetpurplefemme]

I am crying with laughter watching these clips again,bloody genius!!!Jo Brand is a legend

[themachman19691]

[lesterclaypool1]

@themachman19691

That's for the uploads. There is still a serious Jo Brand shortage here in the colonies.

[kvokadlo]

OMG I absolutely love this, when is it aired on TV? I want to see more. Love this. Jo Brand is a legend.

[p4cks]

"has she seen the lunch menu, is that gammon"?

[jmiller05]

Dr Moore is so brilliantly played.

'What's happening down there?'

Lolz.

[atlast1948]

You have to remember that Jo Brand worked originally as a trained nurse -

imagine you havea patient brought in with no explanation, who may or may not be senile, who may have had a stroke or head injury causing loss of memory and they wanted to tranquilize her.

The question about the gammon was in case the woman's religion - which you don't know - means she does not eat specific things.

Jo Brand had it right,

[PortValeGail]

BRILLIANT. I cant WAIT for episode 2! ☺

[themachman19691]

youll all be happy to know that theres a new series of getting on due to be shown on bbc4.cant wait!

[Rhademanthus]

Amazing punchline.

[creaton1976]

has she seen the lunch menu. was that gammon....... just brilliant

[lynniebalba]

Brilliant. As a Registered Nurse it just sums it up beautifully... if you stop laughing you might as well give it away!

[mrskdengland]

This is so funny. Its like a week in my job summed up in 6 minutes. Nursing is a crazy world and you have to laugh otherwise you'd cry.

[graceygrumble]

Hope they take up this series. It was excruciatingly funny.

A la Fawlty Towers, Office, Extras et al.

[david3taylor]

too close to real life for my liking....

[Dancingqueen1980]

Brilliant. Can we have another series of this.
