So what if Malpractice is boring? It’s still brilliant ...Middle East

It saw an overworked A&E doctor, brilliantly played by Niamh Algar, having her professional and private life trawled by the hospital’s Medical Investigation Unit (MIU) after a man died of a drug overdose while under her care. The inquiry eventually broadened out to involve pharmaceutical companies and the hospital itself, exonerating Algar’s character in the process. And judging by the opening episode, this second series follows a similar plot. It is called Malpractice, after all.

Being on call, his first duty is to Rosie, but his consultant persuades him to attend to the more urgent case of Toni. “Failure to prioritise because you’re afraid of your boss is no defence,” he will later be told by his stony-faced interrogators from the MIU (not a real thing within the NHS, but no matter), played by returning cast members Helen Behan and Jordan Kouamé.

Rosie, whom Ford had hastily diagnosed as simply lacking sleep and sent home with some tranquilisers, turns out to also be full-on psychotic – eventually jumping from the hospital roof. Was Ford’s earlier check-up too hurried? Rosie’s obstetrician Dr Sophia Hernandez, played by Selin Hizli (Am I Being Unreasonable), certainly thinks so, and a blame game ensues between Ford and his antagonistic colleague.

And no doubt there will be broader issues and bigger players involved. Writer Grace Ofori-Attah, who worked in the NHS for 10 years, once again gives the proceedings an air of authenticity without overloading it with the sort of endless abbreviations that eventually made Line of Duty a bit of a joke.

Malpractice might already feel a little formulaic after just one and a bit series, but at least it’s a novel formula. I’m certainly booked in for the duration.

‘Malpractice’ continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV1
