Berlin ER is a gritty medical drama on Apple TV Plus, starring Professor T star Hayley Louise Jones. She plays Dr Zanna Parker, who moves to Berlin to head up the emergency room in its toughest and most overcrowded hospital. There she must unify the underpaid and overworked staff and save lives in the face of adversity.
Being compared to ER, this German medical drama was co-written by Emergency Room physician turned screenwriter Samuel Jefferson who says: "I managed to bring my experience working in the UK and very quickly found that the experiences of the doctors here are very similar to those of doctors in the UK. Of course, some of the complexity behind how the systems works is different, but the actual day-to-day pain of being a doctor and what you have to go through is very similar. So, all the human stories were very transferable."
