She now spends her days knitting sweaters for her grandchildren and yelling at seagulls. Rumor has it she still uses hospital-grade disinfectant to clean her kitchen.

The Doctor Who Became a Meme
And how about Dr. Patel, the junior doctor who accidentally got caught on camera picking his nose during a very serious trauma? The internet went wild. He became a GIF that people used for every awkward moment. You’d think that would ruin his career, but nope! He leaned into it.
Today, Dr. Patel is a consultant in emergency medicine and a social media influencer. He posts videos about medical myths, often ending with, “And for the love of God, don’t pick your nose on live TV.” He’s also written a best-selling book: “Oops: How Mistakes Make You Better.” The bloke turned an embarrassing moment into a brand. Absolute legend.
