...been a mystery, characterized largely by rumors and speculation - which sometimes seemed just the way he wanted it. In the fishbowl world he inhabited - with his three young children, Michael Joseph Jackson Jr. (a.k.a. Prince Michael), Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince Michael Jackson II - Jackson has managed to spark, then dodge, questions surrounding his various health problems.

We're now starting to see what...

...hospitals' feudal hierarchy, but it's ultimately about the paradox of Jackie: she's dedicated and moral in her professional life but - in ways it's better not to spoil - hurtful in her private life. As when Falco portrayed Carmela Soprano, she plays tough while letting her emotions spark from every nerve, and she shows a gift for tart comedy here too. To get her job done, Jackie needs to be part nurturer, part con artist, part stand-up comic. "What do you call a nurse with a bad back?" she asks in a voice-over. "Unemployed...
