List of episodes

The twenty-third and final series of the British

series producer. A new theme tune was introduced in the series, but was negatively received from viewers. As the series was filmed during the COVID-19 pandemic, it had to comply with safety protocols, including social distancing and reduced people on-set. Early in the series, actors Dawn Steele
and Trieve Blackwood-Cambridge isolated and became a work bubble for two episodes to film close proximity scenes. The series was promoted through multiple trailers and behind-the-scenes videos.

The show's cancellation was announced in June 2021 as part of plans from the BBC to make more nationwide programming. Holby City concludes with this series and the finale first airs on 29 March 2022. There was a wide backlash to the news from critics, fans and past and present cast members. A petition was launched to save the show, reaching over 43,700 signatures. Filming for the show concluded in December 2021 and pays homage to the National Health Service (NHS) and the show's cast and crew.

Fifteen actors continued their roles from the previous series with three regular characters departing during this series. Multiple former cast members reprised their roles, including some for the show's final episodes. Rosie Marcel (Jac Naylor) and Belinda Owusu (Nicky McKendrick) returned following breaks, while 14 actors returned for guest stints of varying lengths. Four new regular characters were introduced in series 23. Additionally, several recurring characters and multiple guest stars feature in the series.

Production

The series commenced in the United Kingdom on 6 April 2021 on

Chronicle Live observed that viewers disliked the change and branded it "pointless".[61]

Filming

Filming for the series takes place during the COVID-19 pandemic, so strict safety protocols, including social distancing, were enforced to protect the cast and crew.[60] To reduce the number of additional people on-set, mannequin dummies were used on-set.[62] Cast had to apply their own makeup with verbal support from the makeup artists. Smaller makeup injuries, such as cuts and bruises, were not used as a result of this. Larger makeup injuries, such as surgery closeups, were still able to be replicated using prosthetics.[62] As part of their costumes, characters often use personal protective equipment (PPE). However, show bosses were keen to avoid using NHS resources so sourced their PPE from an alternative supplier. The PPE was still effective, allowing cast members to sometimes breach social distancing measures.[62]

To allow close proximity filming, cast members sometimes isolated together and became a work "bubble".[63] As part of a story featuring an intimate relationship between their characters, Ange Godard and Josh Hudson, respectively, actors Dawn Steele and Trieve Blackwood-Cambridge isolated for a week and became a bubble for the filming of episodes nine and ten.[63] Steele enjoyed working in close contact with another actor again and said that she had missed it.[63]

Promotion

The series was promoted through multiple trailers and each episode received a preview clip before broadcast.[59] A promotional trailer for upcoming episodes of the series was released on 29 April 2021. It features footage of new and continuing storylines.[64] A trailer promoting episode eleven was released on 9 June 2021. Lidia Molina-Whyte from the Radio Times thought the trailer looked exciting and said Holby City "shows no signs of slowing down on the drama front".[65] On 16 July 2021, a promotional trailer was released for the second quarter of the series. The trailer begins with a recap of recent plot lines, before teasing new stories. Calli Kitson from the Metro thought there was "a lot to talk about" from the trailer.[66]

Three different trailers were released to promote episodes 21 to 24, which features the story arc of Cameron Dunn's (Nic Jackman) revenge and the hospital explosion. Kitson opined that fans were "being treated to plenty of teaser trailers" as part of the plot.[67] The first trailer, described as "explosive" by Digital Spy's Stephanie Chase, was released on 24 August 2021.[68] The second, "The Clock is Ticking", was issued on 31 August 2021,[69] and the third, "Stay With Me", a week later, on 7 September 2021.[70] In addition to the trailers, the show's media team documented the filming of the explosion across two behind-the-scenes videos.[71][72]

Two further behind-the-scenes videos were created in October and December 2021 for the return of

Bernie Wolfe (Jemma Redgrave) were documented in a behind-the-scenes video, released on 8 February 2022.[76] The show's penultimate episode was promoted through a trailer which was released via Instagram on 18 March 2022.[77] A promotional trailer for the show's final episode was released on 25 March 2022, featuring clips from the episode as well as archive footage. Sam Warner (Digital Spy) called the trailer "emotional" and prompted him to comment, "it's fair to say you should bring some tissues along".[78]

On 2 June 2021, it was announced that Holby City had been cancelled and would conclude with the twenty-third series. The final episode will be broadcast in March 2022.[79] The decision was made as part of plans from the BBC to make more programmes across the country with the intention to better reflect it. An official press release statement thanked the entire cast and crew for their work on the serial and promised that it would "[go] out on a high".[79] Gleeson explained that his team wanted to make the rest of the series "months are the most entertaining Holby yet".[80] Hugh Quarshie, the show's longest-serving cast member, told Sarah Marsh of The Guardian that the cast and production team were informed about the cancellation one hour before its announcement.[81]

Lisa Fox) were among the cast who expressed their sadness with the show's cancellation.[81][83] Leslie Ash, who portrayed Vanessa Lytton, shared her disappointment at the serial's cancellation, but predicted that it could lead to Holby City characters making future appearances in sister show Casualty.[84] Jac Naylor actress Rosie Marcel compared dealing with the show's cancellation to the five stages of grief, adding that she will be sad to leave her character behind.[85] Fans of the show launched a Change.org petition to save Holby City, with it reaching over 30,000 signatures in a matter of days,[86] and 43,700 by December 2021.[87]
