Maybe should have asked for the drug dosage to be increased before it was served:)

The pud and custard is quite hard to mess up, should have been good!!
Yeah, how hard can it be to nuke a pudding and throw some custard on it, the kitchen staff set themselves low targets and manage to consistently fall below par.
Suppose it's a way of getting you home sooner and not bed blocking.

On a serious note, do they want to get you home sooner? Many times I have been with prisoners who have been told at 10 am that they can go once their Meds have been brought from the pharmacy, usually we are waiting until after 4pm & often 7pm.
Last week we got a prisoner to A&E for 08:45 he went to the ward at 18:50, I could just picture somebody on the ward waiting for their Meds.
I believe it is the ward staff's chance of a breather having a bed filled with someone who doesn't need it.

Or maybe too much money being spent on the lynx flypast:(

My God daughter is a paediatric nurse - I couldn't do her job, some of the stuff she deals with is truly awful - and yet she gets paid a pittance.

Strange world we live in.

Unfortunately only the first three series, I held back watching it last year, as I like to watch it as a block. When I was ready, series 4 had already been 'vaulted'.
Looks like it is currently running daily on the new Sony Crime channel - half way through series 1 at the moment. Hopefully they show the whole lot.
