Children's Hospital (1993)

Hit by a van when two years old, Charlie has waited five years for an operation to cover his scar. Also in the first of this new six-part series, 15-year-old Amy undergoes tests to see if her severe epilepsy can be cured and baby Paul has teams of surgeons working simultaneously on his fingers and toes.

At Manchester children's hospital, A&E consultant Jimmy Stewart attempts to coax a foreign object from a three-year-old's nose; tests reveal what lies at the root of 15-year-old Amy's seizures; and little Charlie prepares for surgery to fix an unsightly scar on his scalp.

A mother anxiously awaits the birth of her son, knowing that he will be born with a facial abnormality. And 15-year-old Amy recovers after an operation to curb her epilepsy.

Following a tracheotomy to alleviate breathing difficulties, 14-year-old Richard has a scan to determine whether he can undergo surgery to rebuild his damaged throat.

Baby Rachel battles against liver cancer, Richard learns whether surgery has allowed him to breathe normally and Adam is anxious about an operation to lengthen his leg.

In the last in the series, baby Rachel has life-saving surgery, a five-year-old fractures his skull in a golfing accident and Adam begins to walk again on his leg-lengthening frame.
