Holby City: It was home
It was the end of an era on BBC1 last night. Here is Sue’s brilliant review of a show which will be sadly missed for its insight, its bravery and its sheer entertainment.

(Series 23, ep. 50 by Joe Ainsworth 29.3.22) I’ve gone all tearful about this episode over at Metro so please go and have a look. But first…
I can’t really believe this is the end of Holby City. This programme has meant so much to so many people’s lives. For me it turned from just being my favourite TV show to being the best job I’ve ever had when I wrote the Holby book. The weeks that I spent at the studio researching the book and talking to all the incredibly talented, kind and lovely people who make the show are memories I’ll treasure forever.

Review – Meltdown by Max Marlow (Christopher Nicole)
It's wonderful to find a book you've been hunting for; like finding buried treasure. I tell the full story in my September newsletter, but for now, here's my review. I first read this in the early 1990's. In fact, I read it so much, the book disintegrated. It was THAT loved. Fast forward twenty years,... Continue Reading →
