Isolated, below freezing temperatures, and relied upon as the lone doctor in an Antarctic Research Facility. A select group of researchers and scientists travel to Antarctica to conduct experiments and study the land - an even more select group of people are tasked with keeping them safe.
Each year, a single doctor is appointed to the Davis Research Station in the Australian Antarctic Territory. A 12 month stay, enduring the most extreme conditions on earth, bustling through the below freezing temperatures of -7 in summer, to the barren -40 during winter.
Dr John Cherry is that single doctor, and after a substantial training regiment, crash courses in dental surgery and a comprehensive, life long ambition, John is all but set to depart on his 12 month stay in Antarctica.
