The special episode will see Holby City hospital gripped by the coronavirus pandemic. CEO Max (Jo Martin) will be seen battling to keep the hospital going as coronavirus sweeps through the wards. But Max also has another fight on her hands with Ric (Hugh Quarshie), who’s lost all faith in her.
Rosie and her co-stars are abiding by comprehensive production protocols to ensure the series is made in a safe way.
Kate Oates, Head of Continuing Drama at BBC Studios, says: “It’s with great pleasure that we open the doors at Elstree to welcome back the exceptional cast and crew of Holby City. We have some gripping stories to tell as we explore how the lives of our characters have been irrevocably changed since the start of the pandemic - and how our heroes battle against the odds, come what may.”
It’s also been revealed that the episodes being shot now will be a bit shorter at 40 minutes.
Holby continues on BBC1 tonight at 8pm.
