The much-anticipated medical docuseries, Critical: Between Life and Death, is set to premiere this week, already being hailed as essential viewing for fans of Channel 4's hit show 24 Hours in A&E.

El-Daly revealed crews were constantly checking in, reports the Express, as he added: "The only time I'd switch off my mic was when I went to the loo. There were usually two, sometimes three, cameras." Discussing patient consent, he explained: "Before I saw a patient, the production team asked them or their relatives if it was OK to film them. Then the camera crew would either get the green light or stand down." Critical: Between Life and Death promises an unprecedented view into the lives of those who serve on the front line, from seasoned paramedics to the top surgeons, captured over 21 days using 40 cameras to provide an immersive experience for viewers. A synopsis states: "In London, a major trauma happens every 60 minutes, and for the NHS, each call is a race against time. "Critical: Between Life and Death gets inside the minds of the dedicated trauma teams that hold our lives in their hands when the worst happens. "From the makers of the award-winning 24 Hours in A&E and with exclusive access, 40 cameras are embedded for 21 days across the entire London Major Trauma System. "The documentary series goes over the shoulder and under the scalpel to reveal not only the life-saving interventions but also the personal, emotional, and sometimes traumatic reasons that inspire those on the NHS frontline to do a job where every second counts."
