PICK P OF THE DAY

AMBULANCE, A 9PM, BBC1

FROM 999 call to hospital admission, this returning series follows the North West Ambulance Service during last year’s long, hot summer. Th The fi first t case is a drug overdose, and it’s telling that paramedics Danny and Ben know the dark alleyways where users congregate. From there, it’s straight on to attend a woman who has given birth in a hotel room — and had no idea she was pregnant. As hundreds more calls come in, it’s an average, but no less eventful, Saturday night in Manchester for overworked crews such as Ellie and Ian (pictured).
