Quick Summary
A train crash puts the hospital under pressure
About This Program
The train on which Marian is travelling crashes, trapping her in the wreckage. Although she cannot escape, she's free to move around the carriage to help those injured, assisted by fellow passenger Dr Nick Burnett - who turns out to be the Royal's new locum. Back at the hospital, a shortage of staff puts the casualty department under pressure when the crash victims begin to arrive. Damian O'Hare joins the cast, and Gerard Horan guest stars
The Royal broadcasts on Virgin Media Four at 1:50pm, Saturday, 17 January 2026. (Subtitles, repeat)
