The documentary series charting the ground-breaking research carried out during the first five decades of the NHS.

Donald Ross has been part of a revolution in cardiac surgery. When he was a newly qualified doctor in the late forties - the early days of heart surgery - dying patients were packed in ice to slow their heartbeats. Surgeons had just eight minutes to operate.
