The Professor of Surgery
' The customer is always right. They are customers, or clients. If we had no customers we'd have no job. I sometimes feel like writing over the walls - " No patients - no hospital"
Tonight's programme is an informal portrait of Professor Ian McColl at work in Guy's Hospital, London and Edenbridge War Memorial Hospital, Kent. What makes a good surgeon? How does he avoid operating on the wrong patient? How does he teach his students to talk to their future patients? How much should a patient be told about what is going to happen in the theatre? And if the operation is done under local anaesthetic, what do the surgeon and patient talk about?

There are many faiths but the spirit is one, in me, in you and in every man. (LEO TOLSTOY) In this series of films six people reflect upon the faith they practise and explain how it helps them to live in Britain today. 5: Muhammad Jamil
MUHAMMAD JAMIL lives in London. He's a Muslim and shares the same God, Allah, with his Jewish and Christian brethren. ' Allah means worthy of worshipping. Allah is everywhere. It's not possible to describe the shape of Allah. What we have to believe is that there is Allah, and that he is at the centre of everything, starting with family life.'
