Casualty fans are about to spend quite a few weeks not taking their usual Saturday night trip to Holby City Hospital.

Last Saturday, the BBC One medical drama aired the final instalment in the latest boxset Lethal Legacy.

The mini-series primarily focused on exploring Flynn Byron’s (Olly Rix) army past, as well as the relationships Dylan Keogh (William Beck) has with son Matty Linlaker (Aron Julius) and friend Stevie Nash (Elinor Lawless).

Also, Rash Masum (Neet Mohan) received some really positive news, as he learnt that he had finally become a consultant!

Elsewhere in the ED, this boxset saw Rida Amaan (Sarah Seggari) come to terms with her alopecia diagnosis. She was supported by friend and colleague Jodie Whyte (Anna Chell), who helped pick Rida back up whenever her confidence was low.

Speaking of Jodie, the character turned into a bit of a detective this mini-series, as she became passionate about exposing the truth surrounding a local housing development.

With all of the storylines now wrapped up, Casualty is taking a short break.

Here’s everything you need to know.

Casualty is currently off air for the summer, and won’t return to our TVs until the start of September.

When the show returns on September 5, Casualty will celebrate 40 years on our screens with a special double-bill.

And it’s safe to say this particular trip to Holby hospital will change everything.

The massive anniversary event centres on a high-stakes major incident that puts Holby in chaos.

Lives hang in the balance and the ED team are pushed to their absolute limits in a tense and emotionally charged story, bringing together some of the show’s most beloved characters.

A major rescue operation unfolds, forcing impossible life-or-death decisions and testing the courage, resilience and leadership of those at the heart of the hospital.
