Özet

An entertaining drama based on Nye Bevan’s race to create the new NHS by 5 July 1948. Getting Better is a roller coaster period drama based on real political events alongside the fictional story of front-line tears, trauma and triumph at The Park Hospital in Manchester. As Bevan faces up to the establishment in Parliament, Dr Eva Callaway faces the same challenges – facing poverty, sexism and homophobia in a system stuck in the past.

“Rhod Gilbert brings comic timing to a fine new drama about the creation of the NHS.... Getting Better could be beefed up into a perfect Sunday evening TV drama." (The Guardian)

This docu-drama really brought the birth of the NHS to life. The cast list is huge and well acted. I hope many people will listen to this and appreciate every aspect of our precious NHS.

I really enjoyed this. To me, this story is docu-dram-edy! I never knew much about Nye Bevan and the formation of the NHS. It is a story worth telling and worth hearing. I am hooked!

This is a wonderful podcast drama that tells the story how the NHS came to be founded and the battles fought in pursuit of it. It uses a clever blend of real history and fictional stories from the frontline to show why this was one of the most visionary reforms ever to be introduced. There’s great writing, acting and production values all round and it’s a very timely drama given the heroic efforts of the NHS over the past two years.
