If that's what you meant, then yes, I agree.
He clearly was just frustrated at the fact that he didn't get any stimulating work, which is understandable bearin in mind the blonde girl got LOADS -
Re: BBC3 - Junior Doctors: Your Life In Their HandsSuzi ("blonde girl") is an F2. She has done her year of dogsbodying and now gets rewarded by getting to work in A&E, having her body clock and social life completely screwed by a brutal rota and meeting and being abused by all of Newcastle's inebriated finest alongside occasionally getting to do cool medical stuff. Those two are doing very different jobs, so you can't really compare them (I have done both, and would definitely prefer to be in A&E, but you don't always feel that way at 3am on Saturday/Sunday morning)(Original post by Naomiimoan)

Re: BBC3 - Junior Doctors: Your Life In Their Hands
I thought it was what I expected a BBC3 doc to be... A bit funny, they're all quite young (though it's scary to think that some of these doctors are the same age as me) and it made it seem a bit... Scrubs-like? Is that offensive?
I think Max Pemberton's Trust Me I'm A Junior Doctor is more informative as to the reality of life as a doctor, but I'll be watching the series all the same.... It will be nice to see them all complete their training in one piece.
I wonder if it'll show them having severe doubts about their chosen career, or mucking up so bad that they want to leave? -
Re: BBC3 - Junior Doctors: Your Life In Their HandsMax Pemberton's book is fantastic and provides a different insight but you should note that being a junior doc is very different today and the programme was pretty realistic.(Original post by Harbour Seal)

Re: BBC3 - Junior Doctors: Your Life In Their Hands
As a baby 1st year, I thought that the programme was really good. It certainly makes me very excited and nervous about all the challenges that lie ahead.
And it's really good to hear that some of the docs on this forum thought it was realistic too. -
Re: BBC3 - Junior Doctors: Your Life In Their HandsI'm reading that at the moment, and you're right - it's really informative!(Original post by Harbour Seal)

Re: BBC3 - Junior Doctors: Your Life In Their HandsSad to admit, but I had to look "checking" up on Urban Dictionary(Original post by dmz)
he seems a little bent tbh
, felt bad a little for the Cambridge girl
Yup, do you think Adam is checking katie (i think that's her name)
Checking out right? o.0 Well yeah, the end scene was pretty much spelling it out lol. Adam and Susie (do you mean her?
) are gonna end up together...not long term obv.

Re: BBC3 - Junior Doctors: Your Life In Their HandsI'm surprised he doesn't know how much paperwork there is when he come from a family of doctor. He also seems like a "know it all".(Original post by ickelLorns)
I didn't like the way that the one who had to do all the paperwork was moaning - you can't save the world in your first week!! It was quite good though, will be watching the rest of the series! -

John seems like the most likeable of the bunch. I do love how Susie says "Doctor"

Re: BBC3 - Junior Doctors: Your Life In Their Handsagreed, I would've thought that he would've at least looked over the stuff for that particular specialty beforehand....(Original post by Carpediemxx)
I'm a bit concerned that a new F1, having done finals 6 months ago max, doesn;'t know what addison's disease is
then again, I'm a wannabe student and so can't really say I know what its like to be an F1
