Casualty pulled from screens tonight in BBC One schedule shake-up
The long-running medical drama won't air tonight.

If you're hoping to tune into BBC One medical drama Casualty tonight (21 February), prepare to be bitterly disappointed.
The soap is taking somewhat of a mid-series break, to accommodate sports coverage by the channel.
Surprisingly, it's not the Winter Olympics pushing things back, but coverage of the Six Nations Rugby Union match between Wales and Scotland.
The broadcast begins at 4pm, with kick-off forty minutes later. Gabby Logan and John Inverdale will commentate on the match in the third round of fixtures, held at Principality Stadium.

This will be followed by Gladiators at 7:15pm, and Michael McIntyre's Big Show an hour later. New drama The Walsh Sisters, based on Marian Keyes's novels, follows at 9:15pm ahead of the news.
Fear not, Casualty will return to our screens next week (28 February).
It's a tense time in the ED, as Flynn Byron (Olly Rix) prepares for another visit from the CQC (Care Quality Commission). Holby has found itself in hot water over recent months, with several avoidable deaths and questionable workplace practices taking place.

With everyone on high alert to make the day go as smooth as possible, will resident doctors Matty Linlaker (Aron Julius) and Kim Chang (Jasmine Bayes) throw a spanner in the works?
Meanwhile, Teddy Gowan (Milo Clarke) and Jacob Masters (Charles Venn) are at loggerheads over PC Ashley Sullivan's (Hannah Traylen) wrongful arrest of Blake Gardner (David Ajayi).
Elsewhere, following her sexual assault, Siobhan McKenzie (Melanie Hill) suffers another setback.
Casualty airs Saturday evenings BBC One or can be streamed from 6am on iPlayer.
