Malpractice (2023)
8/10
A tense, engaging drama.
25 April 2023
Doctor Lucinda Edwards faces a huge decision, whether to treat an overdose victim or a young gunshot victim, as she chooses the other is left to a Junior colleague, but dies, Lucinda is grilled.

I'll be honest, after recent medical drama Maternal, my expectation were quite low for this, but this was altogether a different kind of medical drama.

When you hear that The Line of Duty team are involved, you get an idea of what to expect, and despite essentially being a hospital set melodrama, the whole thing is full of tension, twists and turns and intrigue.

It's one of those shoes that's easy to binge watch, as there are several things going on. One thing you come to realise, is that Doctors do essentially have to make some pretty huge choices, I'm not saying it's always life or death, but their decisions do have consequences.

Each episode offers something, and leaves you with more questions, I liked that it was just five episodes long. This one is worth your time.

Very well produced, it looks great and moves by at a pace. Very well acted also, Niamh Algar is excellent as Lucinda, strong performances all round.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, 8/10.
