BBC Studios have won the tender process to produce Casualty for the next three series, starting in Spring 2026, and now it will not only be made in Cardiff, but 'set' in Cardiff too.
Nick Andrews, Head of Commissioning, BBC Cymru Wales, says: “Casualty will be supercharging the portrayal of Wales to the UK and beyond and BBC Cymru Wales are delighted."
The move offers many opportunities to reflect Welsh issues, such as 10,000 patients a month waiting more than 12 hours in accident and emergency; just under 800,000 a month waiting on all 'pathways to treatment', up from 500,000 a month five years ago; equivalent to one in four of the Welsh population.
