Everything you need to know about Sky Original paramedic comedy, Bloods

Samson Kayo and Jane Horrocks star as South London’s finest paramedic oddball dream team Wendy and Maleek in this Sky Original comedy.

Streetwise (but not so wise elsewhere) Maleek finds himself frustrated after an awkward incident sees his long-time paramedic partner replaced by bright-and-bubbly Wendy, an older recruit who’s just moved to London from Nottingham.

Following the duo and their colleagues in the day-to-day world of an emergency service, the series follows the hilarious ups and downs of the team as they save lives.

Whether it be office romances, rivalries, or overeager newcomers, the lovable team may be a little frayed around the edges, but they know how to handle a crisis… just not always their personal ones.
