Many viewers were left asking the same question as ITV's new Sunday night drama launched last weekend - is it based on a true story?
Adverts for Malpractice have been airing on ITV for weeks and, after all those teasers, the new thriller made its debut, in the 9pm slot most recently occupied by the final series of Endeavour, the return of Grace and much talked about ITV true crime drama The Hunt for Raoul Moat.
Malpractice was announced by ITV Drama last year, and focuses on Dr Lucinda Edwards (Niamh Algar), who is a smart, battle-hardened doctor, who has the shift from hell, after the the death of an opioid overdose victim, Edith Owusu.
