Casualty saw a familiar face return to Holby ED tonight, and Teddy Gowan was not happy about the encounter.
Casualty’s Teddy Gowan (played by Milo Clarke) had an unwelcome visitor in Holby ED in the latest edition of the long running BBC medical drama and viewers claimed their heart was breaking for the young paramedic. Two weeks ago he was sexually assaulted during a call out to a hen party, and he has been struggling ever since.
The latest edition of the show saw his assailant visit Holby ED, prompting Teddy to confront her. However, he didn’t get a contrite apology and instead, she tried to turn the assault on him.
“What you did wasn’t right. I said no. I said to stop,” he told her. “Are you having a laugh?” she mocked. “You’re accusing me of what exactly – giving you a good time?” she spat.
“If I was a girl and you’d done that…” Teddy pointed out. “But you’re not a girl,” she cut across him “and you are stronger than me and you definitely enjoyed it,” she continued, as Teddy protested he didn’t.
“It was a hen party, it got a bit rowdy, have a sense of humour,” she mocked. As she walked away, Teddy grabbed her but she spun around and told him not to touch her, adding: “You are pathetic.”

The whole incident was witnessed by Jodie Whyte (Anna Chell), who Teddy had been developing a relationship with before his attack, and she appeared to have competely misconstrued the conversation. Fans were not happy with this latest development in the story and took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their despair.
@thizmufc wailed: “What has teddy done for the writers to hate him this much he literally always gets the most diabolical storylines i swear #casualty.”
@RobTheEnby commeted: Just watched #Casualty and my heart is breaking for Teddy! Jodie, however, can p*** off. She’s a selfish c*** who has to make everything about her.

@melthemeteoritelamented: “I feel so bad for teddy he doesnt deserve this #Casualty.”
Meanwhile @kellycrumpton94 cried: “Is she having a laugh?! because he’s a bloke that makes it okay?! i’m actually raging for Teddy #casualty.”
Elsewhere in the episode new Clinical Nurse Manager Siobhan McKenzie (Melanie Hill), made a huge error when she sent bodycam footage from the hospital to everybody by mistake.
She was clearly mortified and new Clinical Lead Patrick Onley (Jamie Glover) was not impressed. Actress Melanie exclusively teased to Express.co.uk that this will cause a lot of problems for the department going forward.
