Look it’s not just politics that is drifting through the clouds like a weather balloon convinced that its feet are firmly on the ground. Everything, including K-drama, has taken off into the stratosphere in flights of fancy and all the tethering ropes are trailing behind like detached umbilical cords.

I’m sort of going along for the ride with this particular balloon because it’s a lot of fun. I’m not sure that it can sustain it over another series without introducing something a bit more solid than Mr Bean-counter running a hospital, whilst The Doctor (Who) aka Baek Gang Hyeok, kits up in scrubs and sews another artery together in less time than it takes to fire up the TARDIS. Not just a specialist trauma surgeon but a transplant surgeon too. In fact, a dab hand with anything he can get his fist around, scalpel, gun, helicopter joy stick…

Is it good? Well it’s fun and it carries you through on a pace so fast that your credibility warning buzzer has no time to trigger. What did trigger my credibility buzzer however is that something I take for granted, my country’s sophisticated ER/Casualty system, does not exist in all developed countries.
