Holby City is a British medical drama television series that premiered on 12 January 1999 on BBC One. The series was created by Tony McHale and Mal Young as a spin-off from the established BBC medical drama Casualty. It is set in the same hospital as Casualty, Holby General, in the fictional city of Holby, however Holby City is filmed at Elstree Studios in Borehamwood, while Casualty is filmed in Cardiff. Occasional crossovers between the two shows were broadcast as Casualty@Holby City. In 2006, HolbyBlue, a police procedural spin-off from Holby City, went into production. Its second series launched with a Holby City crossover episode.
Holby City follows the lives of surgeons, doctors, nurses, other medical and ancillary staff and patients on the hospital wards. Twenty series of the show have aired, with a twenty-first series currently airing. The show's first series ran for nine episodes. The second and third series ran for sixteen and thirty episodes respectively, with new episodes then airing on a weekly basis from the fourth series onwards. The show typically airs on Tuesdays in the 8:00 pm timeslot, although it is occasionally broadcast on a different day dependent on BBC scheduling. In 2007, the show temporarily moved to Thursday nights, allowing HolbyBlue to air in the 8:00 pm Tuesday timeslot.
