Casualty is reportedly lining up two major show exits after its anniversary episodes. It comes as the soap is set to mark 40 years next month with a special double bill.

However, it is now being reported by The Express that following the episodes, stars Sammy Dobson and Kirsty Mitchell, who play Nicole Piper and Faith Cadogan, respectively, will be leaving the soap.
The site reports that they will both be appearing for a little while longer due to advanced filming schedules, but both have now departed. Further details around their reported exits and storylines remain unknown at the moment.
Digital Spy has reached out to Casualty for comment.
Sammy has been on the show for over two years, while Kirsty’s first appearance was in 2019, and both will feature in the 40th special alongside the entire current cast.

Earlier this year, it was also reported that Derek Thompson will be returning for the 40th as Charlie Fairhead, two years after his exit.
Speaking previously to DS about why his character had resonated with fans so much over the years, Derek shared: “Charlie is everyone. Charlie is a real person. He simply takes you into the show and plays the moral conscience of the audience. He’s a representative of the audience.”
Casualty airs on Saturday nights on BBC One and now streams first on BBC iPlayer, where episodes are released at 6am on the day of transmission.
