On Red Nose Day, patients and staff at King's reflect on the importance of being able to focus on the brighter side of life.
Dilson, who's 33, is rushed in by ambulance with severe knife wounds after being repeatedly stabbed in the head and neck as he tried to stop a fight outside a nightclub.
Dilson is agitated when he arrives and the staff have to calm him down before they can properly assess his injuries. It's vital he has a CT scan as it's incredibly difficult to judge how serious a stabbing is from a visual inspection.
Doreen, who's 79, arrives at King's after falling at home and breaking her wrist. Doreen's daughter Helen arrives to be with her mother.
As Doreen's wrist is treated, mother and daughter describe their strong bond and the pain they both experienced when Doreen and her husband had to have their young children taken into care when they couldn't cope. Helen tracked down Doreen when she was in her twenties and they're now inseparable.
Meanwhile, two-year-old Cydney is brought into paediatric A&E by her concerned parents, Keeley and Michael. Cydney hasn't had a wee for two days. Consultant Firas thinks the toddler will be fine, but he wants her to have blood tests to make sure.
As they wait for the results, Keeley and Michael reflect on the highs and lows of becoming parents at 13, and how they've decided to stop at four kids.

This episode meets patients at King's facing up to some difficult home truths.
Consultant Des is running Resus. One of his patients is 50-year-old mechanical engineer Graham, who's rushed to King's by ambulance. He's had a suspected heart attack after complaining of chest pains.
Graham is accompanied by his brother and business partner Tony, who talks about their carefree days in the 80s, their funny haircuts and the bars in Bermondsey where they used to hang out.
As Des treats Graham it becomes clear that stress and lifestyle could have been contributing to his health problems over time. It's a moment of reckoning for Graham and his wife Gina, who arrives to be at his side.
Tests confirm that Graham has suffered a heart attack and he is transferred to the specialist heart attack centre at King's, where cardiologist Phil carries out a procedure to reopen a blocked artery.
Pat, who's 71, is taken to King's by paramedics after her husband Bill found her unconscious at home. Bill and the doctors are concerned because she has a history of brain haemorrhages.
As Pat's symptoms worsen doctors take her for a CT scan to determine whether she's suffered a brain injury. Bill talks about their long life together and how she loves Elvis Presley and dancing, although he has two left feet.
Meanwhile, 65-year-old Mick is brought to King's after a neighbour found him lying in the street with blood coming out of his ear.
Doctors are concerned that his confusion might partly be a result of a brain haemorrhage and he has to be sedated to allow doctors to do a scan of his neck and brain to discover if he's had an internal bleed to his brain.

Seventy-year-old Ronald is brought to King's by paramedics. He was celebrating his 46th wedding anniversary with his wife Carole when he had problems breathing and she had to call an ambulance.

This episode explores the importance of friendships for both staff and patients in A&E.

'If someone doesn't stop to fit after half an hour, we will become very concerned,' says Dr Ling. 'Brain damage is a concern, so there's a pressure to get on top of the situation quickly.' David isn't responding to drugs so Ling weighs up the benefits of putting him into an induced coma to stop the seizures.
Meanwhile, 49-year-old Suzette and her grandson Azario have come to King's after Suzette was knocked over by a cyclist. While Suzette waits to be seen, four-year-old Azario races around A&E on his scooter, reminding visitors and patients to wash their hands.
