Casualty (Seasons 1–46)

Casualty (1986) — watch online on iFILM. BBC's medical drama series set in Holby City Hospital's emergency department has been running continuously since 1986, making it one of the longest-unbroken dramas in British television history.

Each episode brings in new patients — road accidents, industrial injuries, domestic crises — while the permanent staff carry their own ongoing storylines across seasons. Derek Thompson has played paramedic Charlie Fairhead from the very first episode, a record of continuous casting that few series anywhere can match.

Casualty predates ER by nearly a decade and shaped how the emergency room looks on screen. Stream every season of Casualty online on iFILM.
