List of episodes

The twenty-seventh series of Casualty began airing on BBC One on 18 August 2012 with an episode featuring a disaster at a music festival. Filming series 26 was completed in April 2012 and filming series 27 began a week later. The first episode was in the normal format – a 50-minute episode.[2] This season is 44 episodes, increasing from 42 for the previous one. Viewing figures for the first episode were 5.19 million viewers, continuing to be one of the most watched programmes of a Saturday night.[3]

This series saw the departures of Dylan Keogh (William Beck), Linda Andrews (Christine Tremarco), Lloyd Asike (Michael Obiora), and long-standing character Nick Jordan (Michael French); as well as the returns of former nurse, now consultant Martin "Ash" Ashford (Patrick Robinson) who last appeared fifteen years previously and former ambulance dispatcher, now receptionist Louise Tyler (Azuka Oforka). This series also saw the introduction of four new student nurses: Ally Hunter (Rebecca Newman), Aoife O'Reilly (Gemma-Leah Devereux), Robyn Miller (Amanda Henderson), and Jamie Collier (Daniel Anthony) - with only the latter two receiving a promotion to staff nurse and continuing into the next series.
