Paramedics attend a footballer with a painful double fracture.

Paramedics treat a footballer with a painful double fracture, and a woman is found unconscious in a stairwell.

An amateur footballer has suffered a serious and painful double fracture to his lower leg. The crew find him in agony on a muddy football pitch. Amid torrential rain, they must calm his pain and stabilise his injury before he can be taken to hospital.

In Edinburgh, paramedic crew Tom and Donna have a tricky incident to attend to: an unconscious female found collapsed in a stairwell in a block of flats. No-one knows her name, and the crew are unable to communicate with her as they try to work out the extent of her injuries.

And in the control centre in South Queensferry, call handler Sarah must instruct a caller to give a patient CPR.
