There’s a double bill of Casualty this Saturday – here’s why and what happens

A double whammy!

Fans of the BBC drama, Casualty, will be delighted to know that the show is set to air twice this weekend with a consecutive double bill (Saturday, 3 September, 2022.)

In a double bill, the programme will air its first episode at 7.45pm followed by a second at 8.30pm.

This isn’t the first shake-up Casualty has had recently, with the show returning to its original format.

It now airs 50-minute episodes, after airing shorter episodes throughout the course of the pandemic.

Now, viewers are getting even more insight into the medical work of Holby City Hospital’s Emergency Department this week, in a lengthy instalment that will set out to provide lots of drama.

What happened in last week’s episode?

The double bill comes after last week’s episode We need to talk about Ollie, saw David remove all traces of his son from his life, struggling to cope with the aftermath of the school shooting.

In heart-breaking scenes, viewers saw David hand Ollie’s mum, Rosalene, the last of their son’s possessions.

He gave her a pair of eyes from his blue teddy bear.

However, it wasn’t all doom and gloom for David as he bumped into nurse, Susan, who was able to relate to his experience with bipolar.

The pair bonded and went on a date where David told her that he had no children.

Elsewhere in the ED, two young brothers were involved in a car crash and were left to deal with the consequences without their mum by their side.

Also, Dylan was seen pleading with Marcus to get his act together and increase the ED’s resources.
