Call the Midwife star Olly Rix has landed a “steamy” new role in the BBC drama series Casualty.
Olly, who played the role of Matthew Aylward, was a regular on Call the Midwife for three years.
Viewers were disheartened to see him depart from series 14 of the BBC show in 2024. However, sources say his new “complex” role will set pulses racing among his fans.

The BBC star said he’s thrilled to take on his new role in the BBC medical drama and its upcoming miniseries called Internal Affairs.
A source said: “He has already got viewers hot under the collar on Call the Midwife, but their pulses will be truly racing when they see Olly embrace the steamy new role.”
They added: “Fans of Olly will only have a few weeks before they get the chance to see him on Casualty.”
Olly will be seen as Clinical Leads Flynn Byron in the Casualty miniseries Internal Affairs, which will air on Saturdays starting in March.
Flynn is created with an intense backstory revolving around trauma. The character is shown as fresh out of the military, determined to make a difference in the hospital.
Meanwhile, the Executive Producer for the show, Roxanne Harvey, believes Olly’s character is highly relatable.
