Reception

A Liverpool Daily Post journalist praised Catherine Russell (Serena Campbell) and Sandra Voe (Adrienne McKinnie) for their performances during Adrienne's dementia storyline, saying they had "put us all through the emotional wringer for months".[30] Flynn Sarler from the Radio Times gave the thirteenth episode "Brand New You" a mixed review. Sarler thought that the issue of mental health was important, but the only emotion Guy and Zosia incited was boredom.[31] While he liked the Effanga wedding storyline, branding it "much more fascinating".[31] Sarler noted that the 26th episode "Squeeze the Pips" was "for those who want to see nurse Jonny Maconie finally get something he wants".[13] He also found Guy's discomfort around Jonny "a joy to watch".[13]
The show's production and editorial teams were nominated for the Achievement in Production accolade at the 2014 Creative Diversity Awards.[32] Holby City was nominated for Best Drama at the 2015 Inside Soap Awards.[33] The show also received a nomination in the Soaps and Continuing Series category at the Mind Media Awards for Zosia's bipolar storyline.[34] The fiftieth episode, "At First I was Afraid" by Julia Gilbert earned a nomination in the Best Long Running TV Series category at the 2016 Writers' Guild of Great Britain Awards.[35]
