BBC Two has given the greenlight to This Is Going To Hurt, an eight episode comedy drama adaptation of the bestselling diaries of junior doctor Adam Kay. This Is Going To Hurt tells the unvarnished truth of life as a junior doctor: the 97-hour weeks, the life and death decisions, the constant tsunami of bodily fluids and the fact the hospital parking meter earns more than you. Set on labour ward, the series delivers a brutally honest depiction of life as a junior doctor on the wards, and the toll the job can take back home. 
BBC One has renewed Abi Morgan's divorce lawyers drama The Split for a second season. The renewal announcement came immediately following last night's season one finale. “It’s a delight and a privilege to bring The Split back for series two and to submerge myself once more into the world of Noble, Hale and Defoe and the lives of Hannah and her sisters", Morgan said. "Thank you to the BBC and the enthusiasm of viewers and we look forward to seeing you in 2019.”
