24 Hours in A&E
24 Hours in A&E tells the stories of life, love and loss that unfold every day in one of the UK’s biggest emergency departments. Using over 100 fixed-rig cameras, each programme follows patients who are treated in the same 24-hour period. Over 300 episodes of this much loved series have been produced since it launched in 2011, featuring King’s College Hospital in South London. In 2014, the series moved across the capital to St George’s Hospital before moving to it’s new home at Queens Medical Centre in Nottingham in 2021. The series is edited in Manchester.
“In these troubled times, would that the powers-that-be could assemble the entire population at 9pm to watch this magnificent documentary in the hope of performing a national resus” Sunday Times
Winner of an RTS Award for Best Documentary in 2012, 24 Hours in A&E has also been nominated for Best Factual Series in the BAFTA Awards in 2013 and again in 2019. Additionally, it has been nominated for a Grierson Award, a Broadcast Award, and multiple TV Choice Awards, as well as winning a Televisual Bulldog Award in 2013.
