24 Hours in A&E fans left 'bawling' after 'intense' story of sepsis treatment

Viewers of Channel 4's NHS docuseries 24 Hours in A&E were left "bawling" after tonight's episode, with one even questioning "why I put myself through it". The series that documents the day-to-day activities of emergency NHS workers brought two particularly emotional stories from Queen's Medical Centre in Nottingham tonight (January 10).

The first involved Mick, a 74-year-old man who was rushed into A&E with suspected sepsis. His wife, Dot, shared her experiences as his full-time carer as viewers witnessed A&E staff work to ascertain his condition and how to manage his condition.

Tonight's episode also featured Keith, who was taken into hospital with a high heart rate that medical staff worked to bring down. He was seen undergoing treatment at Queen's as his wife watched on.
