Jeremy raises the obligation doctors now have to tell the truth to patients and to apologise for their mistakes.

All at Polyoaks set out to be rigorously truthful to service users, a particular problem with one patient who has a really unusual and embarrassing problem.

Meanwhile Dr. Roy has problems with patients who insist on being rigorously truthful to him.

Nigel Planer and Simon Greenall star in the Health Service satire by Dr Phil Hammond and David Spicer.

The Polyoaks surgery is plagued by strikes, endless new management initiatives, staff shortages, militant patients, eight day weeks, privatisation – and all these things are entirely their fault, apparently.
