Documentary / Reality
Insight into the London, West Midlands and North West of England ambulance services, from the highly-pressurised control room to the crews on the streets. Ambulance provides an honest 360-degree snapshot of the daily dilemmas and pressures.
Multiple stabbings, suicide attempts, a double shooting and an explosion at a flat flood the control centre of the London Ambulance Service with emergency calls threatening to overwhelm the service.
We join the staff in the nerve-centre control room on the night shift. Amongst the thousands of calls they receive, they also have to contend with hoaxers, frequent callers and run-away patients.
The staff of the London Ambulance Service prepare for another busy weekend. Amidst the call-outs to drunken fights, drug overdoses and stabbings there are also five women going into labour and a miscarriage to cope with.

999: What's Your Emergency? follows members of emergency services throughout Britain as they work together to tackle crime and disorder, providing insight through the eyes of the police, fire, and ambulance services using a mixture of fly-on-the-wall footage taken at incidents and retrospective interviews with the people and staff featured. With rig technology inside the emergency vehicles to call centres to multiple crews on the ground 24/7, the series captures in a unique way the issues that face Britain today, from the emergence of new drugs and the despair of domestic violence to the way we parent our children and those who slip through society's safety net.
Presented by criminologist Professor David Wilson, this series focuses on the cases of seven notorious, cold-blooded psychopathic killers. Professor Wilson walks in their footsteps, living and breathing their movements and speaking to those closest to them as he tries to get inside their twisted minds.
