Ben Whishaw on a best seller, Bond and a Bear
Ben Whishaw has also played Q in the last three James Bond films and is the voice of Paddington Bear
He has joined me online to talk about his new BBC One series This Is Going to Hurt, a seven-part adaptation of Adam Kay's wildly successful book of the same name, about his experiences of being a junior doctor on an NHS labour ward. Kay, who quit as a doctor in 2010, has adapted and produced this series. However, the actor only met him twice before shooting started, with Covid-19 playing its part.
"I absolutely enjoyed it," was Ogunseyila's verdict, praising the show for the way it "humanises being a doctor" and "accurately depicts the reality of being a junior doctor and the impact of the role on our personal lives which subsequently affects our overall wellbeing". "But it also shows the sides where it can be really emotional and we do have losses and we are humans at the end of the day, and make mistakes and feel lost and sad."Real-life junior doctors believe the show will help non-medic friends understand what they go throughBack to Ben Whishaw, and a switch of topic from the National Health Service to Her Majesty's Secret Service.
