An interview with Joseph shared by Digital Spy confirms sadly that tonight's episode was his last one, he has left Holby City. Read the interview in full on the website.

Luc made his final appearance on the BBC medical drama this evening (January 8) as he vowed to go travelling, with hints that he was heading to India for a reunion with Eddi McKee (Sarah-Jane Potts).

Millson told Digital Spy today: "I enjoyed every moment of my time on Holby City. I believe it is a greatly underappreciated gem in the BBC's crown. Every single department excels, and at its best - tonight's 'Hanssen/Hemingway' episode for example - the writing and production are as good as ANY single dramas out there.
