Adam is clinging to his personal life as he is increasingly overwhelmed by stresses at work: the 97-hour weeks, the life and death decisions, and all the while knowing the hospital parking meter is earning more than him.<\/p>\n<p>Whishaw is joined by newcomer Ambika Mod as Shruti, a young junior doctor just starting in obstetrics and gynecology. Naturally bright, diligent, and caring, she has everything it takes to be a great doctor, but the job still finds ways to throw her into chaos and doubt.<\/p><div id=\"morty-3985663983\" class=\"morty-content_2\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_22943\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-22943\" style=\"width: 480px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-22943 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/mortystv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/This-Is-Going-to-Hurtb.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mortystv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/This-Is-Going-to-Hurtb.jpg 480w, https:\/\/mortystv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/This-Is-Going-to-Hurtb-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-22943\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ambika Mod and Ben Whishaw<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Michele Austin (<em>Meet the Richardsons, The Casual Vacancy<\/em>) plays Tracy, a confident, sharp-witted senior midwife, and Bafta-nominated Alex Jennings (<em>The Crown, A Very English Scandal, Unforgotten, The Lady In The Van<\/em>) plays Mr. Lockhart, a consultant, and Adam&#8217;s domineering boss.
