A surreal comedy series tracking the career of Stephen Daker, a young doctor who works for the health centre of a modern British university.
This is the best comedy I've ever seen. Written, perhaps as a serie a clef, by ex-academic Andrew Davies, who went on to adapt Middlemarch, Pride and Prejudice etc for the BBC, it is also the best comedy ever set in the health centre of a provincial British university.
