- Synopsis:
It Is a time of arrivals at The Kingdom. The infamous Swedish surgeon Stig Helmer (Ernst-Hugo Järegård) has taken up his new post, much to the distress of his Danish colleagues. The position promises to be an eventful one - while Helmer is inducted into the sinister brotherhood of surgeons and performs surgery on a patient who cannot be anaesthetised, his involvement with a brain-damaged patient leaves him open to legal proceedings and a blackmail plot by the idealistic Dr. Krogshoj (Søren Pilmark). And there are other, less wholesome presences beginning to make themselves known in the labyrinthine hospital. When the imagined illnesses of Mrs Sigrid Drusse (Kirsten Rolffes) lead her to be admitted as a patient, she discovers The Kingdom's resident ghost weeping in the lift shafts and embarks on a supernatural search for the wayward spirit. Dr. Judith (Birgitte Raaberg) is pregnant with a highly unusual baby, ghostly ambulances arrive with neither patients or drivers, Dr. Bondo (Baard Owe) finds himself unable to resist the lure of a dying man's tumour and just what is the lovesick Dr. Mogge (Peter Mygind) doing in the morgue with a hacksaw? - Actors:
