Holby City will be coming to an end this year, but when will the final episode air?
When is Holby City ending?
Last year it was confirmed Holby City was coming to an end after 23 years on air.
When it was announced the show was being axed, it was revealed the show would be finishing in March 2022.
In a statement released at the time, it said: “We’re very sorry to bring you the sad news that Holby City will come to an end in March next year, after 23 amazing years.
“We are so very grateful to all of Holby’s wonderful cast, crew, writers and producers – and to our millions of loyal viewers and fans for being part of our show.”

“This tough decision reflects the BBC’s commitment to make more programmes across the UK and to better reflect, represent and serve all parts of the country.
“Holby will remain on air on Tuesdays until next March and we will continue to bring you a regular dose of all things Holby right here until then.
“We promise that Holby will get the send off it deserves. Thank you for your continued support and love for the series.”
It has now been reported that the final episode will air Tuesday, March 29.
