Casualty and Holby City are set to land new streaming home – and very soon

Episodes of Casualty and Holby City are set to be added to Netflix later this month, giving fan another platform to watch the much-loved medical dramas.

Both shows are now listed on the streaming service, with episodes confirmed to be arriving very soon, on Monday, 23 November. However, it isn’t yet known which episodes from each show will be added.

Currently, Casualty fans can watch every episode of the show since 2023 on BBC iPlayer, up to and including the two-part 40th anniversary special which aired back in September.

Classic instalments of the show are also available to watch on free streaming services Channel 4 and U.

Fans are currently able to watch episodes from series 24 to 28 – which originally aired between 2009 and 2014 – as these episodes air as repeats in weekly double bills on U&Drama.

Meanwhile, as Holby City came to an end in 2022, there are no longer any episodes available to watch on BBC iPlayer.

But similarly, fans can watch classic instalments of the medical drama on U from series 5 to 9 (2002 to 2007) as these are currently airing as repeats in double bills every weekday on U&Drama.

This Netflix news will be a treat for fans, in particular because Casualty has been on its annual scheduled break since the show’s sensational anniversary celebrations.

After the explosion at St James’ Hospital which had life-changing consequences for the Holby ED staff, Casualty won’t return until 2027 – most likely in January.

The medical drama is preparing for a major change in upcoming episodes, with a move from Holby to a new fictional hospital in Wales on the cards next year or beyond.

Speaking exclusively to Digital Spy earlier this year, Michael Stevenson, who plays paramedic Iain Dean, gave a teaser about what this change means for the show.

"It's a new era, it absolutely is," he told us. "We're going to be Wales-based – focusing on Wales, celebrating Wales, where we've filmed for the last 15 years.

"And that's an amazing thing, it allows us a fresh perspective on things, the way the NHS runs there and all things like that. So it is like a fresh start, we're really excited."

"Obviously the characters will remain, and they take their history with them into the new era," he continued. "But I think that's one of the exciting things, it adds a new dynamic to everybody. We'll see some new faces and some old faces, and they're going to mix."

Casualty will return to BBC One next year. The 40th anniversary episodes are available to watch now on BBC iPlayer.
