The programme debuted on [[24 February]], [[1998]] and soon became one of [[Australia]]'s highest-rating dramas. ''All Saints'' also achieved popularity overseas, particularly in [[Iran]], [[Ireland]] and the [[United Kingdom]]. The series is set in a fictional [[Sydney]] suburban hospital, ''All Saints General Western Hospital''. Its stories originally focused on the lives of the nurses of Ward 17, which was also known as the "garbage ward" because it took the overflow of patients. In 2004, after a year of low ratings, producers drastically overhauled the series, shifting focus from Ward 17 to the Emergency Department. A new set was established, many old characters were dropped and many new ones introduced. With this change, the series also came to focus more upon the lives of the doctors, as well as the nurses as it had in the past. ''All Saints'' has featured popular [[Australia]]n actors and actresses such as [[John Howard (Australian actor)|John Howard]], [[Georgie Parker]], [[Libby Tanner]], and [[Erik Thomson]], as well as international actors such as [[Chris Vance (actor)|Chris Vance]] and [[Natasha Beaumont]]. [[Judith McGrath]], who plays nurse Yvonne Ryan, is the show's only remaining original cast member. ==Cast== ===Main cast=== {{main|List of All Saints characters}} ====Present==== [[Image:AllSaints.jpg|right|thumb|300px|''All Saints'' cast of 2008]] {| class="wikitable" !

These changes first appeared on screens in April 2004. This relocation allowed the producers and writers to explore different and more adventurous storylines and allowed the introduction of additional characters. With the relocation, which was dubbed All Saints' emergency surgery<ref>Enker, Debi. "''[http://www.australiantelevision.net/as/articles/extrememakeover.html All Saints gets an extreme makeover]''", [[The Age]], [[February 19]], [[2004]].</ref>, the show also shifted its focus from the lives of the nurses to including the lives of many doctors as well. This revamp in 2004 proved a success and ratings increased considerably. As a part of this substantial revamp, four of All Saints' regular main cast members were dropped from the show permanently. These included Jenni Baird, who played Nurse Paula Morgan, Martin Lynes, who played Dr. Luke Forlano, Fletcher Humphrys, who played probational paramedic Alex Kearns, and Henry Nixon, who played Nurse Sterlo McCormack.<ref name=FASSD>Byrne, Fiona.

The DVDs are released as complete seasons and are released as 10 disc box sets (11 discs for season 2). In addition to the complete box set, Season 1 was released as a collection of 2 disc sets, each set containing 8 episodes. As for future seasons, EMI can only say that they have yet to schedule the next season - Season 6 - for release, and cannot predict whether or not it will appear in stores in 2008. Other rumours also suggest that EMI has canned releasing the show on DVD entirely, and while this hasn't been confirmed, it seems likely in the wake of this latest statement.
