Production

[edit]

"The show will, of course, remain true to the question that has always summarised it – how do you balance work and personal life in a profession that demands everything in the pressured landscape of the modern NHS."[56]

—Harper on the themes of the series. (2018)

The series commenced on 2 January 2019 on BBC One and normally airs on Tuesday nights,[56] although episode 1 and 12 were originally broadcast on a Wednesday evening.[56][57] Episode 11 was also postponed by a week due to a vote on ongoing Brexit negotiations, and the following episode was consequently postponed to the following evening.[57] Simon Harper continues his role as the executive producer of the show.[58] Kate Hall serves as the series producer for the opening episode,[59] and was replaced by Jane Wallbank from episode two.[60] The series consists of 53 episodes.[61]

Plans for the series and the show's twentieth anniversary celebrations were announced on 11 December 2018, followed by a trailer for upcoming storylines.[56][62] The series commences with a standalone episode focusing on three of the show's longest-serving characters: Ric Griffin (Hugh Quarshie), Jac Naylor (Rosie Marcel) and Sacha Levy (Bob Barrett).[56] The episode is billed as "funny, sad and celebratory" and sees the characters at an awards ceremony. Harper confirmed that former characters would return throughout the series.[56] He explained that the series would feature "a whole anniversary year of treats which celebrate the new, but also pay homage to the old – the show's heritage and history."[56] He also confirmed that the series would feature experimental episodes and an episode written by the show's co-creator Tony McHale.[56] Additionally, Harper announced plans for the show's 1000th episode, to air on 5 November 2019.[56]

Crossovers

[edit]
Shaheen Jafargholi appears in the crossover episode as his Casualty character, Marty Kirkby.

This series features crossover events with Holby City's sister show Casualty.[56] In August 2018, Lucy Raffety, the series producer of Casualty, told Sophie Dainty of Digital Spy that Harper enjoys the crossover events between the two dramas and wanted to produce more. She also teased some "extremely exciting crossovers".[63] In a December 2018 interview with Dainty, Harper promised further crossovers between Holby City and Casualty, and teased an "exciting" event to be aired in spring 2019.[56]

On 15 February 2019, it was announced that Holby City would crossover with sister show Casualty for two episodes, billed as "CasualtyXHolby", in March as part of the anniversary celebrations. The episodes are billed as "dramatic [and] action-packed".[58] Both episodes were written by Michelle Lipton and directed by Steve Brett.[58] The episodes see the hospital attacked by a cyber-virus, destroying all electric systems. A predominant story in the episodes follows Jac and former Holby City character Connie Beauchamp (Amanda Mealing), who appears in Casualty, saving the lives of colleagues after two separate major incidents, despite only having one available theatre.[58] Harper described the episode as "pure, nail-biting, taut, emotional medical drama".[58] He also praised the production teams of both shows for their logical creation of the episodes, and looked forward to exploring the interactions between the characters from the two shows.[58]

Twelve Holby City regular cast members - Marcel (Jac Naylor), Barrett (Sacha Levy), Quarshie (Ric Griffin), Guy Henry (Henrik Hanssen), Catherine Russell (Serena Campbell), Alex Walkinshaw (Adrian "Fletch" Fletcher), Kaye Wragg (Essie Di Lucca), Jaye Jacobs (Donna Jackson), Marcus Griffiths (Xavier "Xav" Duval), Nic Jackman (Cameron Dunn), Camilla Arfwedson (Zosia Self), and Belinda Owusu (Nicky McKendrick) - appear in the Casualty episode of the crossover, originally broadcast on 2 March 2019, alongside the cast of Casualty.[64] The Holby City episode of the crossover, episode 10 of this series, features the Holby City cast alongside nine Casualty regular cast members: Mealing (Connie Beauchamp), Jason Durr (David Hide), Michael Stevenson (Iain Dean), Rebecca Ryan (Gem Dean), Neet Mohan (Rash Masum), Shaheen Jafargholi (Marty Kirkby), Jaye Griffiths (Elle Gardner), Tony Marshall (Noel Garcia), and Maddy Hill (Ruby Spark).[11]

Ramin Karimloo joins the cast as Kian Madani in series 21.

Series 21 features the introduction of multiple new characters. Accredited actress Dawn Steele joined the cast as Ange Godard, a consultant pediatrician/general surgeon and the clinical lead of the young adult unit (YAU), a new unit that Ange opens in the hospital.[67] Steele described Ange as "a great character with lots to tell".[67] The character debuts in the second episode of the series.[3] In November 2018, it was announced that Amy Lennox had been cast as Ange's daughter, Chloe Godard, a cardiothoracic registrar.[76] Chloe first appears in episode five.[77] It was also announced that Jack Ryder would be introduced as Chloe's on-off boyfriend, Evan Crowhurst, a locum registrar general surgeon.[76] He first appears in episode 11.[57] On 14 January 2019, it was announced that Ramin Karimloo had joined the regular cast as Kian Madani, a consultant cardiothoracic surgeon.[78] Kian shares a backstory with Jac, having attended medical school with her.

The series features several recurring characters, and numerous guest stars. In November 2018, it was announced that Daisy Wood-Davis would appear in one episode of the series as Phoebe Palmer, the sister of Evan.[79] Phoebe appears in episode 14.[15] Sara Stewart stars in the opening episode as cardiothoracic consultant Professor Arianne Cornell, who clashes with Jac.[80] The character previously appeared in an episode of series 20, as well as an episode of Casualty.[81][82] A show trailer released in December 2018 confirmed guest returns for Patricia Ghraoui (Sirine Saba) and Roman Makarenko (Marko Leht).[62] Roman appears in episode 4, which features the character's death.[83] Patricia appears in episode 9,[10] and was confirmed to be returning in another trailer released in March 2019.[73] Patricia appears again in episode 22.[23] Episode two features the appearance of actress Lorraine Chase in the role of former nurse Cherie Grimes. Television critic Sue Haasler called the character a "touching role" for Chase.[84] Emma Curtis was cast as recurring character Holly Cartwright, a teenage patient involved in a storyline with Ange and Chloe.[85] Holly's parents, Ruth Cooper (Marianne Oldham) and Michael Cartwright (Christopher Harper), were also introduced for the storyline.[85][86] Holly first appears in episode 5,[6] while Ruth is introduced in episode 6,[7] and Michael debuts in episode 7.[86] All three characters depart in episode 11 at the conclusion of the story.[12]
