Such is life for a TV doctor. "We all naturally get very tired, which we're all very grateful for," Howell explains. "It works for our characters on screen because they're all very tired at this point in the story. They tend to put less makeup on me the longer we go, because it's like, 'No, you're looking tired.

Wait, is back already? And audiences didn't even need to wait four years for it?

Netflix's breakout drama Adolescence has triumphed at this year's Emmys, winning six awards. The series, which became the streamer's second most-watched show ever, won for limited series, directing and writing and also picked up three acting awards. Owen Cooper became the youngest ever winner of the award for best supporting actor in a limited series. In his speech, the 15-year-old called the experience just so surreal.

It's one of those beautiful and subversive works that comes together right when it's needed, offering another way of organizing society - egalitarian yet hierarchical.

As speculation builds about The Pitt finding a British broadcaster and ITV medi-thriller Malpractice returns, we've counted down the top 20 greatest TV medical dramas ever.

"The Pitt is a gripping MAX original that immerses viewers in a modern emergency department, showcasing a 15-hour shift filled with intense challenges for Dr. Robby."

If you find yourself missing Noah Wyle's Dr. Robby following the season finale of Max's breakout hit The Pitt, it might be time to commit to the long-term binge-watch that is ER.
