This Is Going to Hurt received raving reviews from critics and viewers alike after its first episode was released last week.
The series takes an inside look into the world of junior doctors in the NHS as they face crushing responsibility within the workplace but have little power to effect change.
The show stars Ben Whishaw who plays Adam Kay - the show is based on Kay's diary which chronicled his junior doctor days within hospitals.

Where was This Is Going to Hurt filmed?
This is Going to Hurt was filmed in London.
The production was originally due to be filmed in a real-life hospital, but this was not possible due to the pandemic.
Instead, a custom-built hospital set was created in an unused university building situated in Mile End.
The hospital set works well for the show, giving directors more freedom for creativity rather than being confined to a working hospital.
Where did Adam Kay study medicine?
Adam attended Dulwich College, leaving in 1997. He then went on to study at Imperial College where he read medicine and graduated in 2004.
You can catch up with This is Going to Hurt on BBC iPlayer, and watch at 9pm every Tuesday on BBC One.
