In last night's episode of Casualty, we saw the departure of Clinical Nurse Manager and senior staff nurse Rita Freeman, portrayed by Chloe Howman, who joined the show back in 2013. Over the three years, Rita has been involved in several main storylines including her problems with alcohol, framing Connie for murder and the frequent returns of her ex-husband Mark.

Rita's departure follows a recent string of departures including Big Mac, Zoe, Lofty and Dixie. We will also be saying farewell to at least one other character before or around the Christmas break of series 31, so watch this space!

Duffy will be returning to take over Rita's position in series 31 as Clinical Nurse Manager.
