Finally, Sah (Arin Smethurst) is confronted by an old bully, and David’s (Jason Durr) son Olly’s (Harry Collett) struggles with social isolation and depression lead to devastating consequences. So there's a lot going on...

Speaking about all the upcoming stories, Loretta Preece, Series Producer says: "It’s going to be a roller coaster ride in Holby hospital this spring.  There are difficult choices for Robyn and Teddy, harsh consequences for Stevie and Faith, and a hard-hitting, action-packed, and very poignant story for Iain. 

She added: "It’s a season full of adrenaline and betrayal as well as love, friendship, and tenderness.  Rosie Jones has really touched viewers' hearts as Paula and in April we will discover whether the courts will allow her to take her baby back.  And after all, Ethan has been through this series, might he be ready to move on from Fenisha’s memory?"

We can't wait to see what happens...
