Casualty is known to skip around the BBC1 schedules to make way for other programmes and events, and fans have been worried that with live coverage of UEFA Men’s Euro 2024, Glastonbury 2024, Wimbledon 2024 and the Paris Olympics 2024, their favourite drama may be kicked down the road until a later date.

We can reveal that the series isn’t going on an extended sabbatical for the Summer schedules, but there are some changes. Some Saturdays the show is switching from BBC1 to BBC2 and on others it won't be airing at all.  

But you need never miss an episode of Casualty with this handy guide to all the medical drama episodes airing over the coming months. 

Please note: This document is now closed. Check out our Casualty page for all the latest spoilers, news and interviews.

When and where can I watch Casualty over the Summer months?

With the opening episode of Storm Damage kicking off on Saturday,  June 15, 2024, at 8.20pm on BBC2, just as the Euros got underway, Casualty made the move to  BBC2. Yet, it didn't stay there for long. 

Check out our special Summer guide below for every episode of Casualty and where you can watch it.
