If You Were Given A Second Chance At Life, How Would You Use It?
A high-flying financial analyst had it all, before failing kidneys landed her at death's door and a transplant offered her a second chance. Inspired by the man who saved her life, Frankie Bell (Claire van der Boom, Sisters of War) makes the drastic decision to become a doctor herself, working as a resident in the cardio-thoracic and renal wards of a major teaching hospital just eight years after her surgery.
Along with her colleagues, Lou (Andrea Demetriades, Janet King) and Tabb (Arka Das, Lion), Frankie struggles as she battles with the realities of working in an ailing medical system. But for Frankie especially, the hospital is a dangerous place. As a transplant recipient, she is vulnerable to infection and her compassion for her patients may endanger her own life.
A rollercoaster ride of personal triumph and tragedy, this intense medical drama series stars Owen Teale (Game of Thrones), Liam McIntyre (The Legend of Hercules), Susie Porter (Puberty Blues), Penny Cook (A Country Practice) and Renee Lim (Please Like Me).
The official soundtrack album Pulse: Music From the TV Series features songs by acclaimed Australian artists Taasha Coates, William Crighton, Davey Lane and Sara Storer.
