Casualty fans have taken to Twitter to discuss one particular character and how they've developed throughout the series. 

After last night's Casualty episode, which saw Jacob comforting Ian after Faith rejected him just when he needed her the most, viewers proclaimed on social media how it was good to see Jacob back to his 'kind and caring self again'.

It was announced earlier this year that Jacob, played by Charles Venn, would be leaving the show this year - and fans were glad to see the character back to his former self before the exit. 

'After a tricky couple of months Jacob @ChuckyVenn is back to his kind and caring self again,' wrote one fan.
