Series Getting On, Series 2
Summary Following record audiences and critical acclaim, director Peter Capaldi's wonderful comedy returns, as Kim, Den and Dr Moore clock in for six more glimpses at the daily grind on a female medical ward in the backwaters of the National Health Service. The legacy of Kim's threatened suspension lingers, new patients bring new problems, Den and Hilary's relationship is no clearer than before and Pippa's career is under the microscope. Elsewhere, a planned new wing is dangled before the staff like a carrot, complete with glossy photos, and Pippa's investigation into stools is a hit - but other than that life continues much as before. Doing the best they can in a place where difficult choices are the order of the day, this series promises some of the darkest, warmest comedy around, and shows us that sadness and laughter can sit comfortably together after all. Series 2, Episode 4 Hilary's 'Icing the Cake' initiative is spreading, but not always successfully. Best behaviour has a habit of bringing out the worst. Pippa has a lunch appointment with Peter, while Den and Hilary have a difficult matter to deal with. Kim embarks on a vendetta of a different kind. Will they ice each other's cakes?
