Junior doctors' strike: Diary of a night shift in London

NHS junior doctors are currently in dispute with the government over pay and patient safety. Many of those taking part in strike action have talked about long hours and being over-worked.

The government says it wants to reach "a fair and reasonable settlement" with junior doctors, but their "demand for a 35% pay increase" is not fair or reasonable.
