Superior communication skills across emotional spectrum with celebrities and their parents. Zany dress sense, down with the kids, much more intelligent than everyone else yet humble with it. Secretly everyone is jealous of her.

Works tirelessly to optimise function in those for whom life expectancy in the competition is limited. All about adding life to years rather than years to life. Struggles to keep up to date and no longer contributes to the acute rota.

Routines are a bit weird and seem to involve obscure bits of equipment not commonly carried by other doctors. Willing to take on a challenge and push boundaries where others fear to tread.

(7) AljaĹž Ĺ korjanec - Acute Medicine
Excellent all rounder and youâll learn a lot whilst working with him. Spends so much time at the hospital that the only possible successful marriage is to another Consultant. Lusted after by other staff but unobtainable.

(10) Gorka Marquez - Anaesthetics
2020 has been the year youâve realised how important he is. Fanatical about fitness outside of work and high social media presence. Disproportionately popular with gay men.

Manages to bring an air of danger into what should be an everyday occurrence. Phenomenal work ethic and stamina. Fights to the bitter end to try and achieve a good outcome.

(12) Dianne Buswell - Vascular Surgery
All or nothing dependent on the case. Has the adrenaline and enthusiasm to tackle a ruptured aortic aneurysm but fails to make much of an impression if all she has to work with is a set of varicose veins. A good job she likes red stuff.

Somewhat frustrated that despite his knowledge most of his patients are managed by other people in the community so not very visible. Happy to teach if given the opportunity and likes to collaborate.

(20) Bruno Tonioli - Pathology
Whilst vital to the overall function of the organisation he tends to go off at a tangent if given too much opportunity to talk and teach. The salient bits of his report are hidden within a load of waffle you donât really understand. Means well.

(21) Rylan Clark-Neal - OOH GP
A more recent addition to the primary care offer, his workload is skewed towards the weekend. Very much a portfolio career type who works across multiple organisations.

All other specialities interact and depend on him. Rarely seen and in the background but integral to the success of the show. All the pros depend on him and will seek guidance before planning risky procedures.
