Worcestershire Royal Hospital

Episode 4 of 4

Dr Phil Hammond hears stories of staff and patients at the Worcestershire Royal Hospital. Does humour help us cope? From 2021.

An innovative mix of comedy performance and documentary in a series presented by Dr Phil Hammond.

As a doctor and a comedian, Phil knows that humour and laughter are vital coping mechanisms in the NHS, as he travels the UK on a mission to listen to the beating heart of a national institution.

This time Dr Phil visits the Worcestershire Royal Hospital, where he hears stories from staff and patients - as he reveals how humour and laughter are vital coping mechanisms in the NHS.

And Dr Phil performs a free stand-up comedy show for the staff based on his listening experiences at that location and the stories of the people he has met.

Producer: David Morley.

A Ride production for BBC Radio 4, first broadcast in September 2021.
