Holby City is a BBC medical drama that has been airing since 1999. It focuses on the personal and professional lives of doctors, nurses, and patients at Holby City Hospital. Over 50 directors have worked on the show over the years, as well as many writers who help shape the plotlines. Episodes air on Tuesday nights at 7:30pm on BBC1. Some of the main characters introduced include Arthur Digby, a enthusiastic but socially awkward doctor, Edward Campbell, a charming yet immature junior doctor, and Elliot Hope, an eccentric cardiothoracic consultant. With new characters regularly joining and others leaving, Holby City continues to provide dramatic medical storylines into the future.
