BBC One has released a new trailer to promote Jemma Redgrave’s arrival in Holby City.

The actress is best known as UNIT’s Kate Stewart in Doctor Who, a role she’s played in six episodes since her debut in 2012.

Redgrave began filming her Holby City role in September and will appear on screen as Bernie Wolfe, a “feisty general surgeon with battlefield experience”, in BBC One’s long-running medical drama soon.

Redgrave commented last year: “It will be great to be practicing medicine again, on one of the BBC’s flagship dramas. I am so happy to be joining the cast.”

Holby City executive producer Oliver Kent added: “When we dreamed up the character of Bernie Wolfe, we immediately thought of Jemma Redgrave and we were utterly thrilled when she agreed to join the Holby Company. Bernie Wolfe will be a force to be reckoned with and I can’t wait to see her locking horns with our established regulars on the wards.”
