Holby City.

Image via WikipediaOne of the most under rated drama`s on British televison must be Holby City.Its writing and acting rivals any seen in other drama`s on televison at present.
The cast is excellent with the superb Amanda Melling as Connie Beauchamp shown in the photograph, Hugh Quarshie as Ric Griffith and ex Eastender Paul Bradley as Elliot Hope who shows great skill at combining comedy and heart breaking drama.I also like Robert Powell who plays Mark Williams the character most viewers I suspect admire for his ideals and heart of gold.Two other members of cast I think deserve a mention is Emma Catherwood who plays FI Penny Valentine who as made the character true of any put upon junior doctor in any NHS hospital in the land and Rosie Marcel who plays hard nosed surgeon Jac Naylor who hides her caring side behind a wall of thick ice!
The cast as changed a lot over the years but the new characters who come into the series on a regular basis quickly make you forget about those that have departed and that is quite an achievement and although the number of episodes produced have increased greatly over the years the quality of the acting and writing as never faltered and that cannot be said of some series that have gone through a similar experience.
Personally I think the series is now the best medical drama on television and outstrips its sister series Casualty by a mile.
