Manners McDade's Ben Foster Scores ITV's 'The Good Karma Hospital'

The Good Karma Hospital tells the story of junior doctor Ruby Walker (Amrita Acharia), who arrives in India looking for a job and a distraction from her heartbreak. She anticipates the sunshine, the palm trees and picture-perfect beaches. She's even prepared for the sacred cows, the tuk-tuks and the Delhi belly that everyone warned her about. What she doesn't expect are the realities of work, life and even love at an under-resourced and over-worked cottage hospital.

Run by a gloriously eccentric Englishwoman - Doctor Lydia Fonseca (Amanda Redman) - the Good Karma Hospital is the beating heart of the local community. Held together by a hand-picked team of British and Indian medics, the Good Karma turns no one away - locals, ex-pats and tourists are all welcomed through its doors.

Ben Foster provides a beautiful string-led score, featuring authentic Indian instruments. Ben is best known for his scores for dramas Happy Valley, Our Girl and Torchwood, as well as ITV's recent reboot of Thundebirds Are Go! with his brother Nick, for which they received a BAFTA nomination for Best Original Music.

The Good Karma Hospital starts this Sunday at 9pm on ITV.
