Holby City fans were left in tears after one of the soap’s most beloved characters revealed she has less than six months to live.
As fans saw surgeon Jac Naylor desperately try to find someone to perform the life-changing surgery she needs to survive her brain tumour, she is given a devastating prognosis that without the surgery she has less than six months to live.
With just weeks to go until Holby City departs our screens, fans believe that despite all the many lives the infamous medic has saved in her 17 years on the show, there may not be anything anyone can actually do to save her.
Viewers took to Twitter to discuss the devastating turn of events.
One wrote: “Jac finding out how little time she has left #HolbyCity,” followed by three crying emojis.

While a third added: “I mean… look at her. Jac is the best part of Holby City, the heart of the show. She can’t die .”
Elsewhere in the episode fans were delighted to see the return of popular characters Serena Campbell and Bernie Wolfe, who returned to visit Serena’s injured nephew Jason Haynes.
Fans saw Serena propose to Bernie on the hospital rooftop marking a happy ending to their storyline as the show draws to a close.

Surgeon Nicky ruffled feathers when she defied Jac’s demands and performs a surgery she’s not entirely qualified for.
Furious, Jac insists that Nicky is suspended with immediate effect, but makes it clear that if she had it her way, she’d be dismissed for good.
Viewers were also shocked to see Henrick reveal he has feelings for male colleague Russ, sparking the beginning of a potential gay storyline on the show.

Henrik’s feelings for Russ are intensifying and don’t go unnoticed by returning familiar face Serena.
Henrik is given food for thought over his connection with Russ, and is assured that no one will think anything of it if they become a couple.
Fans praised the stroyline and hope that the pair will find happiness together before the show is cancelled in just a few weeks time.
“Wait, is Henrik Hanssen gay? Be Brave!” said one viewer.
A second added: “i really love this relationship and hope they develop it further by the time the show ends #holbycity.”
