Holby City (1999–2022)
9/10
some good moments and a request for a name....
10 February 2022
Holby has become one of those shows that perhaps overstayed its welcome and as I haven't been in the UK for a decade or more, this is not really a review and more of a request to the fans: Going back to the early days, there was an episode concerning a patient, a large Welshman, who had fallen into a grave! Now, this might possibly have been Casualty but my brain tells me it's Holby, but by the by, the point is, the actor who played the patient gave an awesome performance...and I can't remember his name or indeed, if he went on to have the career he deserved! I can't even remember the name f the episode, sadly...anyone out there on the interweb remember the talented actor?

Two more honourable mentions and perhaps, I think, Holby at its best: David Soul gave outstanding performances, especially in the tense, office conflict scenes and finally, can anyone tell me the name of the well-known british actor from the 50s and 60s, who gave an incredible speech during the period of Remembrance, November 11th. He played a Normandy Veteran I believe and if I remember correctly, the actor himself was a veteran of the same campaign. The names are driving me nuts but as I'm in late middle-age and its been over 30 years,,,guess no real surprise!
