A ITV drama is reaching British screens today called Malpractice, telling the story of a doctor whose patient dies during a "nightmare shift".
Featuring Niamh Algar in the lead role of Dr Lucinda Edwards, a "smart" and "battle-hardened" doctor, she sees her patient, Edith Owusu, played by Sherelle Armstrong, die of an opioid overdose. While Dr Edwards is supported by her medical supervisor, played by James Purefoy, an investigation is held into the death.
The investigation is led by Dr Norma Callahan, played by Helen Behan, and a former colleague of Dr Edward's, Dr George Adjei, played by Jordan Kouamé.
