I have a dream

If you'll allow me for one moment...
The scene is a hospital casualty unit in West London. Suddenly, the sets of double doors open, and we find the half-dead figures of Sue Robinson and Alison Graham rushed in on stretchers. Both are suffering from severe head injuries, and need urgent treatment fast for a full recovery.
Unfortunately (for them) they find that the surgeons about to operate on them are actually:
An actor from Casualty
An actor from Doctors
An actor from Holby City
All three are extremely photogenic, and can shout in an impassioned way on demand. What they are sadly unable to do, however, is perform surgery, no matter how many cunting technical advisors are listed on the closing credits. Straining their last remaining fragments of cranial matter, Robinson and Graham fervently wish that they hadn't been so proud of the Radio Times front cover (7 - 13 October 2000) where they printed the most flippant, patronising fucking headline ever seen in a British magazine:
"WHO SAYS BRITAIN'S SHORT OF DOCTORS?
Why the boom in medical drama is just what the doctor ordered."
Aaaaah, the joy of imagination....

And of course, when they come round their hospital food is served up by Delia Smith, Antony Worrell-Thompson & Gary Rhodes who end up bickering about who makes the best jam roly poly. Delia then proceeds to hit Worrell-Thompson over the head with a bed pan and wraps a tourniquet around Gary's hairdo whilst chanting 'you're going home in the Can't Cook, Won't Cook ambulance!'.
