Following the success of 2point4 Children, Andrew Marshall wrote two series of the hospital sitcom Health & Efficiency. Despite one of the most impressive cast of actors ever brought together for a sitcom, a politically charged premise and a darkly comical look at the challenges facing the NHS in the 1990s (which, without doubt, remains relevant today) it has been all but forgotten about.

In this special episode of Don't Slam Your Podcast, Andrew Marshall shares memories of his underrated sitcom and J.D. is joined by new guest Simon Dunn to give it a post-mortem examination.
