Amanda Holden: Exposing Hospital Heartache

Actress and presenter Amanda Holden has suffered both a stillbirth and a miscarriage but was helped through the trauma by caring treatment from compassionate professionals, as are many parents. But, in this Channel 4 Dispatches, Holden investigates the treatment of some couples whose pregnancies end in failure. She meets a number of mothers who tell her their experiences in the aftermath of their loss left a great deal to be desired, and seeks answers from those in authority in the NHS about the problems she hears. Along the way, she revisits her own difficult memories to try to understand what these parents are going through.
