Ski A&E - Season 1
Season 1
Episodes
Intro
Introducing the various teams who work together, including the helicopter mountain team who treat an extreme case over 3,000m up as the patient slips in and out of consciousness, a young British lad who gets tough love from his Mum, and a pensioner on holiday with a group of friends who bangs his head and can't remember what day it is.
Weather
The changing weather causes difficulties on the mountains as the teams rescue a Geordie who's cut open his face and a woman who has fallen 13 metres without a helmet.
Pain
Ski Patrol and the medics deal with painful emergencies – including a heli-rescue from a mountain, a little boy with slashed fingers and a woman whose leg has, as one medic says, ‘exploded'.
Speed
Most ski-fans love going fast, but speed means risk. This time, we meet those who pay the price for these white-knuckle thrills, including a netball umpire who receives heart-breaking news.
Snowpark
The snowpark in Val Thorens has dozens of jumps, pipes and jibs for the more adventurous winter sports fan, but some of these hi-octane thrillseekers inevitably end up in Ski A&E.
Insurance
Patients include Terri from Crewe, who ends up with more than 20 stitches in her shoulder, and Igor the Russian businessman, who refuses all medical assistance.
Changeover Day
It's Changeover Day in Val Thorens, which means legions of first-time and out-of-practice skiers hitting the slopes with sometimes disastrous consequences.
Lifts
There's a rare crisis in Val Thorens when one of biggest cable cars in the world breaks down, leaving up to 100 people dangling from a wire 50 metres above the mountainside.
Varsity
It's the famous Varsity Week, when rival Oxbridge universities hit town for a downhill grudge match - alongside the usual dramatic backdrop of cases from the slopes of Val Thorens.
Avalanche
Patrol teams work to prevent avalanches, using dynamite, train their rescue dogs, and desperately seek a 14-year-old boy who is missing after skiing off-piste alone.
Recently Updated Shows
EastEnders
Set in the East End of London, the show focuses on the tensions between love and family with stories ranging from hard-hitting social issues, to personal, human tragedies. And there's plenty of funny moments too.
Classic characters old and new across thousands of episodes have shared a drink in The Queen Vic, shed tears of despair or joy, sat on Arthur's bench in the Square... and at some point or other they probably crossed paths with Ian Beale.
Doc
Doc centers on the hard-charging, brilliant Dr. Amy Larsen, Chief of Internal and Family Medicine at Westside Hospital in Minneapolis. After a brain injury erases the last eight years of her life, Amy must navigate an unfamiliar world where she has no recollection of patients she's treated, colleagues she's crossed, the soulmate she divorced, the man she now loves and the tragedy that caused her to push everyone away. She can rely only on her estranged 17-year-old daughter, whom she remembers as a 9-year-old, and a handful of devoted friends, as she struggles to continue practicing medicine, despite having lost nearly a decade of knowledge and experience.
Dark Matter
Hailed as one of the best sci-fi novels of the decade, Dark Matter is a story about the road not taken. The series follows Jason Dessen, a physicist, professor, and family man who – one night while walking home on the streets of Chicago – is abducted into an alternate version of his life. Wonder quickly turns to nightmare when he tries to return to his reality amid the multiverse of lives he could have lived. In this labyrinth of mind-bending realities, he embarks on a harrowing journey to get back to his true family and save them from the most terrifying, unbeatable foe imaginable: himself.
