SATURDAY, 8.35PM, BBC1 DRAMA

The past few months have been a roller coaster for the Holby ED team in BBC1’s medical drama Casualty, with four shock departures and the death of a popular colleague.

Lovely doctor Ethan Hardy (George Rainsford) left to focus on his son, while nurses Marty Kirkby (Shaheen Jafargholi), David Hide (Jason Durr) and Jacob Masters (Charles Venn) resigned after the tragic death of Robyn Miller (Amanda Henderson).

The department has since been dangerously short-staffed, but help is at hand. Holby City favourite Donna Jackson (Jaye Jacobs) has been appointed clinical nurse manager and has hired four new nurses, who all make their debut this week.

Here, the quartet introduce us to their characters…
