ATV...... didn't they make Tiswas years ago :) TV only wants to show the exciting stuff....... them checking their kit, flying for 20 mins, turning up at a job that doesn't a/ include lots of the word "stat" a lot b/ somebody being tubed, sorry intubated c/ somebody getting defib'd is, in the eye of these TV types a bit boring. if you went by the BBC's Casualty, all resus's in a hospital are succesful on the whole with the patient walking off into the sunset fully recovered..... the reality is that 3-5% of resus's in a hospital setting are succesful. and sadly our customers or clients or whatever we call the public nowadays, are unable or unwilling to seperate fiction from reality and hence have unrealistic expectations of what can be provided. in a previous life, my job was 95% mundane routine, and 5% sheer hell, when i saw a program on Air Traffic, you'd think the %'s were reversed
