  1. Great result for Ambulance Australia, what a quality show. Flicked over to 7 during commercials and what did I see, ads for bloody MKR already….it’s only November for gods sake. 2 months of this to look forward to!

        1. We watched it too. Similar to UK version and liked how it finished one story at a time. Not like many doco reality-type shows that switch between (eg Border Security). Made me really think how much goes into a paramedic’s job. Well produced 10. Just shows 10 can rate above 7 & 9 at times ????
