Hi, everyone and welcome back to 酒馆. Hi安澜.
Hi, Lulu. Hi, everyone.
You noticed that I didn't say welcome back to Britain Under the Microscope?
Yeah. I did notice that, it was a bit strange.
Because today we are actually going to do TV picks.
Oh. Goody.
Yeah. Just wait for it. It's not a fun TV.
Oh.
Yeah, in fact, it's a really, really, really depressing TV show.
What is it about you and choosing really depressing TV shows for us to talk about?
Well. It is a British TV show.
Okay.
Most of your TV shows can get really depressing.
所以今天是一个特别的【荐剧板块】, 我相信, 这个英剧安澜也看过, 因为我原来跟他讨论过。And the name of this TV show this TV series is “This is Going to Hurt”.
Yes, I have seen that before. So it is a comedy, but it's also a tragedy, and it's also a drama as well.
嗯嗯, 这个中文译名叫做《疼痛难免》。其实我在星期四星期五直播间,就是【看剧解梗】这个环节分享过一集, although it's a really depressing TV show, but I think it's a really good one and the stories behind it and then the issues that it talks about, I thought it's worth a couple of episodes for us to talk about.
Yeah, absolutely.
So in our previous episodes, we have talked a bit about the NHS, but we haven't really talked about the NHS now, like some of the pressures that doctors go through. And this is essentially the main theme of this TV show.
So previously we gave you guys an introduction like a brief introduction of the British medical system, health care system called NHS.英国的一个医疗体系叫National Health Services or Service？
Service.
Service.
就是大家都听过英国的公费医疗就是全民免费医疗,对吧？It sounds like dream come true, sounds great on paper. It sounds great in theory.
But in fact, there are so many problems. There are so many challenges as you can imagine.
Yes. So I won't go too much into the NHS, because we have discussed it before, but it's important to note that the NHS was founded on the principle that healthcare is free. And you can see a doctor, you can get medical treatment quickly, efficiently, and most importantly, completely free of charge.
Just remind me again, it is completely free.
In the UK, it is more or less completely free, prescriptions you need to pay, I think it's around ￡7, but it could have been increased.
Like a nominal charge.
