Britannia Hospital

May 27, 1982
Alors que le pays est en plein conflit social, avec émeutes et même attentats sanglants, le Britannia Hospital s'apprête à fêter ses 500 ans d'existence en recevant la Reine-mère, pour une visite des différents services et l'inauguration d'un tout nouveau bâtiment réservé au Professeur Millar. Anglais jusqu'au bout des ongles (parfaitement manucurés), ce ponte de la médecine cultive une mégalomanie galopante entretenue par une assistante dévouée corps et âme. Dans son antre ultra-moderne, il entretient des membres humains prélevés sur des patients fraîchement décédés (et qu'il a d'ailleurs parfois aidés pour cela) dans le but de réaliser une expérience de chirurgie totale et de créer un homme de toutes pièces. Oui, Millar est un nouveau Docteur Frankenstein...
