Earlier, Inside Soap reported that when it does come back, episodes will run at a slightly shorter 40 minutes – similar move to that made by EastEnders – but there has been no confirmation of these reports.

Kate Oates, BBC Studios' Head of Continuing Drama previously said of the return: "It's with great pleasure that we open the doors at Elstree to welcome back the exceptional cast and crew of Holby City. We have some gripping stories to tell as we explore how the lives of our characters have been irrevocably changed since the start of the pandemic – and how our heroes battle against the odds, come what may."

What will happen in the new episodes of Holby City?

The new episode will centre on Ric (Hugh Quarshie), who wakes following brain surgery to find a very different world – one dominated by the circumstances of the coronavirus pandemic, stretching the hospital to its limits.

The episode will also see Cameron (Nic Jackman) finding himself tasked with helping a critical patient, while various staff members also show concern regarding Sacha's (Bob Barrett) actions after the death of his partner Essie (Kaye Wragg).
