CASUALTY
SATURDAY, 8.20PM, BBC2 DRAMA
Barney Walsh admits that he couldn’t have predicted the path his Casualty character, nurse Cameron ‘Cam’ Mickelthwaite, is about to go down, as the drama’s latest 12-episode story, Storm Damage, gets under way this week.
‘Cam has been on the show now for over a year and it’s very clear the kind of person he is – shy, timid and very afraid to get things wrong,’ shares the actor and presenter, 26, as he joins TV Times for an exclusive interview.
‘In this storyline, I’ve been able to delve deep, figure out the reasons why he’s built that way, why he’s so scared. I’d no idea that he was going to be taken in this direction.’
In Saturday’s instalment (set to air on BBC2 due to Euro 2024 coverage on BBC1), viewers will see Cam struggling to get to Holby ED during a red weather warning. But he’s soon facing his toughest shift to date in a series of harrowing, high-pressure situations involving an injured infant and her distraught mother, coupled with the looming arrival of a figure from his past at the hospital.
Here, Barney tells us more about this challenging chapter for Cam…
How do you feel about Cam being under the spotlight in Storm Damage?
It’s really exciting. So far, there’s been a lot of light relief with Cam; either he’s losing blood results or getting yelled at – he even lost a dead body in his first episode! To lead one of the plot lines in the new story, and to explore the reasons why he’s like this, is an absolute honour for me.
So, where is he at the start of the 12-part story?
