It’s been another tough shift for Dr Robby.

The UK has a new television streaming service - with HBO Max launching earlier this year.

One of the big-hitting series tipped to pick up subscribers ahead of the new Happy Potter reboot was the Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning The Pitt - a drama that combines the medical setting of E.R. with the (nearly) real-time action of 24.

Starring E.R.’s Noah Wylie, the full first series was immediately available to binge-watch for UK viewers.

But those swiftly moving on to season 2 were left disappointed to find that the full series is currently unavailable - despite the last episode having dropped in America.

Here’s everything you need to know about when you can see what’s going to happen to Doctor Robby next. A warning - there are spoilers ahead if you’ve not already watched episode seven.
