[QUOTE="J. R.'s Piece, post: 204546, member: 12"] Oh yeah. He expired by sacrificing his life and dropping to his death in the [I]Holby City [/I]part of the first big cast-combining [I]Casualty/Holby City [/I]full-on crossover (distinct from the usual story and cast crossovers), which festively killed off characters from both shows at Christmas 2004, after a tanker crashed into Holby City Hospital, leading to things exploding. John McArdle, Freema Agyeman, Nicola Stapleton and Rene Zagger were in that. I remember George Irving quitting his role as the enigmatic Anton Meyer (hardly anything is revealed about his private life in a four year stint) on [I]Holby City [/I](and 1 episode of [I]Casualty[/I]) because he felt that he was having trouble switching the character off at home and declined to ever return. Richard Bradford reportedly used to do that on ITC’s [I]Man in a Suitcase.[/I] He himself said that he only used to get along with the actors playing the characters that his character (McGill with no first name, a former American intelligence agent, framed and dismissed by his bosses for something they know that he didn’t do) was supposed to get along with.
