Since when has Holby City had the names of the actors on the opening credits as well as the closing credits? Makes it look like an American hospital drama al a ER!

Since about 3 weeks ago I think...They look really out of place.

The Christmas episode was the first I believe... Bad Decision for the show, but good for the actors

Ah but they're no longer featured on the closing credits which means they can run at a slightly slower, slightly more readable speed.

Shame that stupid guidelines (it's a 1hr show, surely an extra 10secs wasn't that much of a problem) have meant cheap changes to the opening titles.
