Iain Dean (Michael Stevenson) is in danger in Casualty soon, as this new trailer shows the drama he will be involved in throughout the medical drama’s next boxset.
The new mini-series is called Supply and Demand and primarily focuses on the paramedics working at Holby City Hospital.
In the first episode – which airs this Saturday – it’s been three months since the ambulance crash, and Jan Jennings (Di Botcher) is still struggling to trust young paramedic Indie Jankowski (Naomi Wakszlak).
For Iain, who has a great deal of experience when it comes to crashing ambulances and landing into trouble, he takes Indie under his wing and grows frustrated at Jan, believing she should move past the incident.
The twelve-parter will delve into the realities of a drug crisis as an interruption to the drug supply chain causes the ED to fall under even more pressure.
In this trailer, we see the moment Iain chases danger again, climbing up onto a crane for a daring rescue.
As the paramedic team begins to fall apart as a result of many factors, Iain will spend time with Hart – the Hazardous Area Response Team. Star Michael Stevenson recently told me more about Iain’s decision to leave Holby…albeit temporarily.
‘The offer that comes in for Hart, it sort of side-lines him a little bit and you know as much as he is happy that he’s settled now and married and all that kind of stuff, you’ll never take that element away from him that he is drawn to the excitement and the thrill of danger.
‘And you know he’s been with Hems before, Hems is always a good shout for him to do because of the next level up of rescue that he gets to do and stuff like that, but Hart is a whole new level.
‘That is his first temptation away from it, but then what reinforces that is the team around him that he’s spent so long building and nurturing is slowly starting to fall apart and that only gets worse as things transpire after this episode.’
Supply and Demand will also see Flynn (Olly Rix) struggle to connect with his daughters, while Ngozi (Adesuwa Oni) continues to receive support from Dylan (William Beck), following the reveal that she has an addiction to alcohol.
