Hi Dean,

The Mitral Valve one was on Monday so it may have dropped off. I have it downloaded so if you like, PM me your address and I'll send it to you on CD.

It is still on there. Go to the Catch UP bit then search Heart surgery and it comes up with all the episodes of the series, the hart one is at the bottom of the page.
