BBC Holby City's David Ames says cast had 'no idea' show was ending

Fans of Holby City are set to be distraught tonight as the medical drama is coming to an end. The final ever episode of the BBC show will air on Tuesday night and marks the end of an era after 23-years running.

Actor David Ames, who has played surgeon Dominic Copeland at the Holby City hospital since 2013, appeared on Lorraine earlier today ahead of the programme drawing to a close tonight. The actor revealed that both he and his fellow cast members had 'absolutely no idea' that the show was going to end.

Sharing her fury for the show's exit, Lorraine said: "I'm really cross about this. I haven't come to terms with it yet, it is so sad." David then told Lorraine that the cast are slowly coming to terms with the news as it came as a shock to them too.
