The Good Karma Hospital is a medical drama series produced by Tiger Aspect Productions for ITV about a disillusioned doctor, Ruby Walker, who travels to South India hoping to make a fresh start.

In addition they face a race against the clock to find anti-venom for a local snake catcher whose luck may have run out, leaving him in urgent need of treatment.

Lydia and Ruby visit a convent and make a seemingly miraculous diagnosis, but the treatment of a young nun and the senior doctor's interfering attitude creates tension between them, which finally erupts in a fierce confrontation.

Maggie and Paul join a group of pilgrims on a trek through the jungle, hoping to find the answer to their prayers, while a stroke victim's family prays for his recovery as well.

It’s intended as Sunday night ‘unchallenging’ fare but if you can sit through it without feeling so challenged you want to throw a shoe at the TV, you are made of stronger stuff than I.
