First, she is driving to the Rybnik where lives someone important to her and then she is rushing to meet her lawyer in Warsaw. On her way from Rybnik, she suffers in a bus crash and is admitted to the hospital in the same city. Besides some minor injuries, she is diagnosed with amnesia. Anna is desperate to find out her identity and regain her memory with a help of the medical staff. One of them, though, seem to know her and tries to hide it.

Production

[edit]

In March 2017, it was first reported that TVN would produce and broadcast a television series set in Rybnik as part of a deal with the city. The series was expected to contain city placement and consist of at least 12 episodes with broadcast on a weekday at no earlier than 8 pm and the premiere date no later than October 2017. Rybnik demanded that the programme contained scenes featuring at least 36 popular locations in the city and that its name was mentioned at least 6 times. In the final agreement, estimated to 369,000 PLN, TVN was obliged to deliver 40 such scenes and 10 mentions of word "Rybnik". As part of the deal, it was also assumed that the cast would include famous and well-renowned actors.[3]

The main cast and the title were revealed in April 2017.[4] Filming began on 20 April 2017 and took place in Rybnik and Warsaw.[5] It was also announced that Dorota Kośmicka-Gacke would be the series' producer and it would be directed by Xawery Żuławski and Łukasz Palkowski. Katarzyna Śliwińska-Kłosowicz would act as the head writer. It was reported that the series would contain 13 episodes, each lasting about 40 minutes.

Few weeks after the premiere, TVN confirmed that Diagnosis would be returning for a second series.[6] [7]
