The ending of the latest episode of Casualty has left BBC viewers all saying the same thing.
Saturday’s (June 6) instalment of the medical drama finally revealed the deadly secret from Flynn Byron’s (Olly Rix) past, which explains his mysterious and fractured relationship with his former military trainer, Colonel Jack Bard (Mark Womack)
In the current boxset titled Lethal Legacy, the clinical lead has become concerned about the welfare of one of Bard’s soldiers, Rory Dickson (Gwïon Morris Jones).
After noticing several injuries on the young man, Flynn has reached out to Rory several times, but has been silenced by Bard each time raising suspicions.
In the latest episode, Flynn rushed to hospital in the middle of the night to see Rory, who was brought in after being found drunk on a busy road. Rory received a mental health assessment before being released but Flynn was convinced that he was at risk of harming himself.
Flynn asked Rory to stick around so he can patch him up in his office and Rory later admitted that he’s being bullied by Bard, disclosing various horrific incidents that he has experienced at the barracks.
However, after Flynn secured Rory a place at a recuperation facility, the soldier vanished. A packet of drugs also went missing and Flynn headed out fearing the worst. Thankfully, Stevie found the medication in the hospital.
Flynn then got a call to say that Rory was in a critical condition after being hit by a car. Flynn rushed back to the ED to find Rory in cardiac arrest, but against all odds, managed to restart his heart.
Deeply affected by the events of the day, Flynn went out for a drink with Stevie Nash (Elinor Lawless) on the canal and the pair had an honest chat about her current struggles and they headed to a bar to shelter from the rain.
Flynn told Stevie that he started basic military training at the age of 17 with a boy called Adam, whose name was mentioned earlier in the boxset. Adam was also bullied by Bard and his ordeal led him to take his own life.
He signed a statement out of fear saying that Bard had nothing to do with Adam’s death but in an emotional moment, he explained that his fight to get justice for Rory is partly to make up for his past regrets.
Stevie sent Matty Linklaker (Aron Julius) a text to end their secret fling and she continued to drink with Flynn. He initially decided against sharing a taxi with Stevie but as he started walking in the rain and released that he wants to be with her.
He rushed back to the bar and was gutted to realise that he was too late as Stevie had already left in a taxi, leaving fans begging for next week’s episode already.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan penned: “I am SCREAMING at today’s #Casualty I will simply never recover.” Another added: “Those final scenes between Flynn & Stevie in tonight’s #Casualty were [flame emoji].”
A third person said: “That end montage with Stevie and Flynn? It’s all probably going to go pear shaped though when he finds out about Matty.”
A fourth person said: “That ending had me literally jumping up and down, next week needs to hurry up already.” Someone else agreed: “Today’s episode was intense and full of emotion.” Could a love story be on the horizon or have Flynn and Stevie missed their chance?
Casualty airs on Saturday nights on BBC One and now streams first on BBC iPlayer at 6am on the day of transmission
