There was a walk-in centre where I used to live. It was a complete joke, it had severely restricted opening hours and they also forced you to have an appointment. I'd only just moved there at the time and wasn't registered with a doctor, as it turned out it was actually quicker to register and get an appointment with a proper GP.

NHS Direct is no better, the best advice they can offer people is to take a couple of aspirin/paracetemol and see a doctor the next day .. like that never actually occurred to me.
