Viewers were left 'bawling' at new show Saving Lives in Leeds tonight as a single dad received a life-changing double hand transplant.
Jamie Mines lost all his limbs after an accident at work in which he was electrocuted. He's been waiting for a double hand transplant for two years, and finally got his surgery date at Leeds General Infirmary with specialist surgeon Professor Simon Kay.
The first episode of the BBC2 show depicted Jamie's story among others receiving surgery at the LGI. Jamie is a single dad to twins Savannah and Isabella, and was overjoyed when his operation went well and he was able to show them his new hands and tell them he'd be able to tickle them soon.
