Dr Phil visits Birmingham City Hospital
Dr Phil Hammond hears the stories of staff and patients at a city centre hospital. How does humour help us cope? From 2021.
An innovative mix of comedy performance and documentary in a series presented by Dr Phil Hammond.
As a doctor and a comedian, Phil knows that humour and laughter are vital coping mechanisms in the NHS, as he travels the UK on a mission to listen to the beating heart of a national institution.
The programmes are an adventurous, hilarious, thought-provoking mix of humour and happiness, tragedy and reflection as the personal thoughts, opinions, experiences and hopes of people who work for and use the NHS are revealed.
This time Dr Phil visits Birmingham City Hospital, where he hears the stories of porters and patients, cleaners and cardiologists, visitors and volunteers, the managers and the medics.
And Phil performs a free stand-up comedy show for the staff based on his listening experiences at that location and the stories of the people he has met.
Producer: David Morley
