Getting On is a BBC Four comedy drama starring Jo Brand, Joanna Scanlan and Vicki Pepperdine as three members of NHS staff who are just 'getting on with it' in an overlooked corner of the health service.

Welcome to Ward B4, a backwater in an NHS trust hospital. This is the world of slips, trips and hips; healthcare at its least glamorous.

Messy choices are the order of the day in a world where necessity produces its own solutions: the story of one ward, in one hospital.

Series 2 Details: In the forthcoming second series, some time has passed since we were last on B4. Nurse Kim Wilde is ploughing through her training modules, a consequence of the incident with Matron Hilary Loftus, while other unresolved conflicts simmer.

Sister Den Flixter is juggling her off-on relationship with Hilary, Doctor Pippa Moore has to compete for her own job with re-structuring on the agenda, and the prospect of a brand-new wing is dangled in front of the staff as the builders move in.

New admissions bring new problems but, in Getting On, the real challenge is getting on with life in a world where few things move on.

Our Review: A superb series. Although the camera work was a little erratic at times, the otherwise excellent direction captured the depressing and mundane hospital ward atmosphere perfectly, whilst the writing and acting created very believable characters.

There are some very humourous situations too - for example, when the nurses phone up a translation line to find out what a foreign patient is saying, they don't get the answer they were quite expecting!

We're firmly looking forward to the six-part second series which has been commissioned for transmission by Summer 2010.
