Drama of the Week

Life Lines - Series 9

Listen Later

Carrie is a call handler for the ambulance service. Every day she makes split-second decisions as she deals with a succession of emergencies; from a young man who has fallen whilst attempting to put up a flag, to a mother dealing with the death of her only son. Carrie is gifted with the knack of calmly helping people through their most vulnerable moments. Each episode is a collage of heart-stopping stories, where Carrie’s indiscriminate acts of kindness can mean the difference between life and death.

The programme contains scenes of a traumatic nature.
