Selena Donovan

Selena is a successful, academically gifted and strong-minded woman who has a great belief in her work and is determined to get what she wants.

Selena had a brief stay on Holby, her debut episode being S17 E25, when she arrives in the department to carry out new drug trials. When Selena gets the go ahead from upstairs, Harry is pleased, but Charlie has reservations and thinks it will be disruptive. In S17 E27, whilst Harry and Selena were out to dinner, Harry’s wife Beth dies in a car accident. Harry blames himself as Beth was giving Tally a driving lesson, which he had promised to do. In S17 E28, the team are giving Selena the cold shoulder as she was with Harry the night his wife dies. In S17 E29, Selena’s trials are raising controversy again. When she fails to check a patient’s medical history, Harry’s forced to reprimand her. But it’s clear he’s not just angry about that – she confronts him and tells him their personal life shouldn’t interfere with their professional life. In S17 E30, Selena bids farewell to Harry as it’s her last day. As she leaves her number and kisses him on the lips, Tally catches them and runs off hysterically in to Lara’s arms.
