For most people a bad shift isn’t life or death. But for Gary - it sure is.

Hold the Line is a comedy-drama based on the true events of working in a NHS111 call centre. After a patient unexpectedly dies during a routine health assessment, Gary’s livelihood and job are brought into disrepute as he faces the heat throughout the shift from hell. What happens when staff are overworked and mistakes are made?
