	Casualty
		What Casualty sought to achieve in its first series was a gritty realism bordering on documentary authenticity, capable of dealing with the day-to-day stresses of front line emergency care and the further difficulties of working in a system coming apart at the seams.
		Against the claim that Casualty has lost its earlier political abrasiveness, the producers would argue that public opinion had caught up with the programme, that the once controversial claims had become fact and the issues were more subtly woven into the fabric of the stories.
		Casualty is a classic example of the intergeneric development of formula based television fiction.

	Vietnam on Television
		Vietnam was the first "television war." The medium was in its infancy during the Korean conflict, its audience and technology still too limited to play a major role.
		As with most television news, the emphasis was on the visual and above all the personal: "American boys in action" was the story, and reports emphasized their bravery and their skill in handling the technology of war.
		Television crews quickly learned that what New York wanted was "bang-bang" footage, and this, along with the emphasis on the American soldier, meant that coverage of Vietnamese politics and of the Vietnamese generally was quite limited.

	Get Him Into Crash Duffy: Watching Casualty
		Casualty - every episode of which plays like a politically correct disaster movie - is one of the most downright entertaining shows on British television.
		Casualty has become the slickest example yet of a particular TV genre (and a BBC-dominated one): the 'institutional' drama series of which Z Cars, Angels, Juliet Bravo etc.
		Casualty makes exciting drama precisely because it depicts incidents which are atypical in an AandE ward: squash players impaled on their rackets, farmers whose feet have been chopped off by their machinery, hunt saboteurs trampled by horses and children crushed in ram-raids, for example.

	Encyclopedia: Casualty (television)
		FACTOID # 155: Of the 8 countries which include the word "democratic" in their long form name, 3 are dictatorships: Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Lao People's Democratic Republic and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
		The exterior shots of the hospital itself were formerly filmed at the city's technical college, but are now shot on a small industrial estate, not far from the interior set of the hospital itself.
		This has been a recurring theme over the years, but especially in the early series, which were frequently criticised for endorsing criticisms of National Health Service management under the Conservative government of the day.

	CASUALTY \| A TELEVISION HEAVEN REVIEW
		Elsewhere, Casualty has never shied away from down-to-earth, real life subjects such as child abuse or AIDS, incurring the wrath of politicians and, in particular, the Conservative government of the mid-1980's, when it attacked the policies of hospital closures and NHS cuts.
		Casualty has always gone for nail-biting drama to finish each series, this normally involves a cliffhanger concerning a member of the regular cast who have, over the years been raped, stabbed and pushed over balconies.
		Consistently well produced, written and acted, Casualty forsakes the high gloss sheen and glamour of its US cousins to excitingly and effectively portray the human face of a beleaguered NHS, which only barely continues to survive through the committed hard work and sheer dedication of its true unsung heroes...

	Vietnam
		Vietnam (which was never formally declared a war) is often characterized as the "living-room war" or the "television war." It was the first war to be systematically televised, and it was so televised during a period when television was becoming a more compelling presence in American life.
		A comprehensive discussion of either the representation of reality or the total impact of television coverage of the war on the domestic audience (or the historical events that may or may not have been the result of such impact) is beyond the scope of this paper.
		Rather, the focus is on television's cultural role during the Vietnam War--not so much the perceived reality of war imagery, but the content and context of the war coverage itself.

	Reviews on Casualty Look at tests, reports and read reviews: dooyoo.co.uk
		Casualty is the perfect Saturday evening drama series, the storylines are realistic and full of suspense and all the actors play their parts brilliantly.
		Casualty, as the name suggests is a programme surrounding the events in a Accident & Emergency Department, namely the one in Holby General, Holby City.
		Casualty success was well deserved, it was a good original show and it combined realistic medical situations with the lives of doctors well, but after all this time it has simply run out of steam.

		Additionally, testimony was received, without objection, that the television, which had been sold and serviced by Pochel's, was, when sold to plaintiff, in the same condition as when received from the manufacturer, except for the length of time it had been used.

	Casualty - Review - Television v real life - THE FACTS!!
		I spent almost 2 years as a Registered Nurse working in an inner city Casualty Department where 6+ hour waits were the norm and where the often unpleasant side of human nature was revealed in abundance on a daily basis.
		Casualty nursing is associated with a high burn out rate and the turnover as such is generally rapid.
		Casualty is a great programme which has not diminished over time however it is a little too far removed from reality for me to be able to view it as a "documentary" type reflection of modern society.

	BBC News \| Health \| UK medical soaps 'true to life'
		The dramatic resuscitation techniques portrayed in UK television medical dramas give a fair indication of what happens in real life, according to a report in the British Medical Journal.
		CPR is the medical term which covers the heart massage, mouth-to-mouth breathing, drugs and electric shock therapy that is given to patients when their hearts stop beating.
		Although this outcome is very close to what happens in the real world, Dr Gordon said the patients featured on TV were more likely to be younger and suffer a cardiac arrest as a result of trauma than was normally the case.

	math lessons - Field-removed video
		Field-removed video (FRV) is a controversial technique used in television broadcasting to give television shows recorded on videotape the same "look and feel" as shows recorded on film.
		Once recording television programmes became common in the 1960s, two options were available, film, which was expensive but gave a soft, richly coloured picture and the harder, more immediate videotape.
		As it was more expensive, film came to be used only in high status drama projects, while everyday programming such as news, sitcoms and soap operas were shot on video, which could be taped over if necessary and did not require developing or more expensive editing processes.

	TV Medical Dramas Have Enormous Responsibility For Educating Viewers On Medical Matters
		In two studies, which centred around an episode of the BBC's Casualty in which a character took an overdose of paracetamol, the researchers found that both knowledge of the effects of fatal liver damage after such an overdose and the actual incidences of self-poisoning increased.
		In their study of 49 accident and emergency departments and psychiatric services in the UK, Professor Keith Hawton from the Warneford Hospital in Oxford and colleagues found that in the week after the episode of Casualty was broadcast, people attempting overdoses increased by nearly one fifth (17 per cent).
		Those people who had watched the episode of Casualty were twice as likely to know about the specific dangers of paracetamol poisoning than those who had not and this increased knowledge was largely found to be retained eight months after the broadcast.

		The casualty loss deduction is based on the decline in the fair market value of property due to damage or destruction by a sudden, unusual or unexpected event, including natural disasters and acts of terrorism.
		As is the case with deductions for mortgage insurance and property taxes, casualty loss is an itemized deduction included on Schedule A. Schedule A deductions are subtracted from your adjusted gross income.
		State tax laws vary on casualty loss deductions and because casualty loss deductions often involve large sums and complex tax calculations, you should seek the help of a knowledgeable tax professional to complete any tax return -- state or federal.

		However, as the number of television channels increases, and it becomes harder to find an audience for their shows, programme makers are increasingly relying on tried and tested formats.
		A good example of this trend is the focus on television shows about the worlds of medicine and crime prevention.
		This is not surprising: they deal with issues that are important to us all, such as justice and the meaning of life; they can show us the thrills of a dangerous world without putting us at risk, and they open up the possibility of all sorts of fascinating interpersonal relationships.
