Hello, I'm Greg Jenna and good news, Your Dead to Me is back for a new series. Here we go. Yes, we'll explore Emperor Nero's notorious reign with Professor Marybeard and Patton Oswald.

and society's expectations of them have changed, how they deal with life, death and the fear

of making mistakes, and what all of this means for the future of the NHS. But we'll start by

looking into the past. Professor Jane Dacre is president of the Royal College of Physicians and qualified

in 1980. My worst shifts were when I did what we called a four-day weekend. So I'd go in on a
