Character mistake: Charlie says that Iain has been a paramedic for ten years. Iain actually joined as a student paramedic in August 2013 immediately after leaving the Army (in which he was an infantryman, not a medic). As 'Casualty' operates in real time and this episode was shown in February 2019, Iain has therefore been a paramedic for only five and a half years.
