Melanie Hill, known for her roles in “Waterloo Road” and “Coronation Street,”
has expressed excitement about reuniting with her former “Bread” co-star, Katy Carmichael,
for Casualty‘s Christmas special. Hill joined Casualty earlier this year as Clinical Nurse Manager Siobhan McKenzie and will reprise this role in the upcoming special. The two actresses first worked together on the sitcom “Bread” in 1991, where Hill played Aveline and Carmichael portrayed Connie. The special episode is noted for its innovative format, focusing on the journey of a donated bag of blood. Hill’s personal connection to the show’s themes, drawing from her family’s history of blood donation, added to her emotional involvement. The episode is set to air on BBC One on December 21 and will be available on BBC iPlayer, promising a unique and heartfelt viewing experience.
