Just read that Holby City will end next year. I quote "to make room on the BBC drama slate for other programmes"
I will miss it after 23 years but it has got a bit dire recently.

I have watched it for many years and also find that the story lines are often a bit unbelievable. However I have a soft spot for some of the characters, such as Donna, who we have seen maturing over the years, and Ric. Will miss my Tuesday evening viewing.

Probably to make room for yet another game show, I’d rather they got rid of casualty which has been dire lately. I’ll miss it after years of watching.

Half the people recently in Holby should be in prison anyway, not working at a hospital! It is getting very far fetched, although I did used to enjoy watching in the past.

Oh no tanith please no more dreadful games shows. If I hear Danny Dyer say The Wawl one more time I will scream.

I'll miss it too despite complaining about it for being so daft. It's to make way for more regional drama. I certainly like the Welsh output eg 'Keeping Faith' and 'The Pact'.
