Casualty off air until September 5 for 40th anniversary special
Casualty returns September 5 for 40th anniversary special

Casualty fans will have to wait a few weeks for their usual Saturday night trip to Holby City Hospital. The BBC One medical drama recently concluded its latest boxset, Lethal Legacy, which focused on Flynn Byron's army past, Dylan Keogh's relationships with his son Matty Linlaker and friend Stevie Nash, and Rash Masum becoming a consultant.

Why is Casualty not on tonight?

The show is currently off air after finishing the Lethal Legacy boxset. It will return on Saturday, September 5 with a special double-bill celebrating 40 years on screen. The anniversary event centers on a high-stakes major incident that throws Holby into chaos, with lives hanging in the balance and the ED team pushed to their limits.

What happened in Lethal Legacy?

During the boxset, Rida Amaan came to terms with her alopecia diagnosis, supported by colleague Jodie Whyte. Jodie also turned detective, investigating a local housing development called Wyvern Hill. The upcoming anniversary episode promises a major rescue operation with impossible life-or-death decisions.
