Roy C Lilley

Hello, this is Roy Lilley.

Red.

Not amber and red.

[outro jingle] Hello, this is Roy Lilley.

Who said it was feasible? Feasible.

Remember that word.

I'm Neil Dixon, a former BBC broadcaster, one-time chief executive of the King's Fund, the General Medical Council and the NHS Confederation.

My co-conspirator is the irrepressible Roy Lilly.

Hello, Roy.

I

don't know about irrepressible.

It says a plan that overlooks its most acute services requires will ultimately fail vulnerable patients when they need it most.

To discuss all this, our guest is the president of the Intensive Care Society, Professor Shondipan Laha.

Shond, as he is known to his colleagues, is a consultant in intensive care medicine and anaesthesia, and he's based mainly at the multi-specialty critical care unit at the Royal Preston Hospital.
