Not trivia


* CrossOver: With its parent show ''{{Series/Casualty}}''. Done as the mini-series ''Casualty@Holby City'' in 2004 and 2005. A similarly large-scale one occurred in 2019, focused on a cyber-attack. As the two are set in the same building, however, many smaller incidents have occurred, with occasional permanent character moves.



* ShipperOnDeck: While the more reserved Jemma Redgrave (Bernie Wolfe) is fully on board the good ship Berena, her counterpart Catherine Russell (Serena Campbell) is undoubtedly its captain; the initial airing of their [[spoiler:first kiss]] sparked a flurry of tweets from Russell about how proud she was of the storyline and how thrilled she was to be a part of it, and she's been vocal in her support of the pairing from day one.

Not trivia, not subvertable.


* PoorMansSubstitute: Subverted. The role of Berenice "Bernie" Wolfe was written with Jemma Redgrave in mind -- so the producers were pleased as punch when they actually got Redgrave herself to join the cast.



** As of January 2013, it became this for Rachelle Lynne and Kate Webb, who are considered MsFanservice.
