Oh no.
At least we still have Casualty.

[joeysteele]

Sad, prefer Holby to Casualty now if I watch them.

[Liam-]

Really not surprised, it’s been bad for a pretty long time now

[Cherie]

Not before time, not watched it for years

[Greg!]

Omg never watched a single ep but I’m sad about this. Will watch the last ep cos I’m interested how such a long running show will end

[Amy Jade]

I stopped watching ages ago, when the dizzy blonde was written out (Chantelle?) It went so bad about 2 months later. Is Jac still in it?

[bitontheslide]

it should have ended 22 years ago

[arista]

Will end in March 2022.

"This tough decision reflects the BBC's commitment to make more programmes across the UK and to better reflect, represent and serve all parts of the country."

Whut. How does portraying one of the most important (and underappreciated!) jobs in the country not reflect, represent, and serve?

Tories probably got confused and thought it was part of the NHS and told the BBC to axe ha

[Cherie]

is Charley still in it

Wouldn't actually surprise me if seeing a positive representation of the NHS and the impact of cuts gave some of them itchy necks...

Mate he's never gonna leave. He's had several overdoses, been shot, decapitated, stabbed, and about a zillion heart attacks.

Lately I've enjoyed casualty more. So I'm glad it's staying.

Not it's lack of funding
the BBC has still got more to Axe
and Journalist's/Production teams to sack

[GoldHeart]

I stopped watching it a very long time ago anyway, I saw clips from an episode a few weeks ago but I didn't know who anyone was . But I recognised Squiggle from EastEnders .

"Across the UK".

They will probably replace it with a new regional drama, they have productions all over the UK except North of England so will probably create something similar to Waterloo Road.

They still have Casualty and Doctors reflecting that industry anyway.

well to all series come an end eventually with all fairness

never seen it, but if it got bad reviews well it's worth giving the axe but tbh still good it lasted for that long time anyway

onwards to new career ventures for the cast i'd say, always look on the bright side of life

[Tom4784]

I hadn't watched it since I was little but I'm surprised to see it axed, it's one of those shows that you'd just expect to be around forever.

I'm so pleased and Casualty next and that'll make my year . Never watched a single episode of either.

You've never watched either so it'll make your year to see them axed?

...Why? Could you not just carry on not watching either?
