Hugh Quarshie - who is the longest running star in the BBC medical drama, after appearing as Ric Griffin since 2001 - has revealed it was hoped the show would resume shooting later this month, but it's now thought the end of next month is a more realistic date, if they can "film safely".
Asked if he knows when 'Holby' might be "up and running again", he said: "It's not definite. We had hoped by the end of this month, but now we're looking at the end of July.
"Everything depends on whether there is another spike, or whether we can film safely with social distancing and so forth."
Hugh also admitted he thinks the recent Black Lives Matter movement protests - which were sparked following the death of George Floyd in the US - should lead to things "changing quickly".
Speaking on 'Good Morning Britain', he added: "I think there is a feeling of 'enough no more', things should change and change quickly."
Hugh's comments come after 'Holby' returned to our screens earlier this month, after going off air in April.
During the coronavirus lockdown, 'Holby' donated ventilators to the NHS to help combat the coronavirus pandemic.
Announcing the news in a tweet, BBC Studios said: "Fully operational ventilators from the Holby City set arrived at .
"@BBCCasualty & @BBCHolbyCity Exec Producer Simon Harper said: "We are only too happy to help out and do what we can for the courageous and selfless real life medics. (sic)"
The BBC donated the ventilators to the new Nightingale Hospital - which can hold up to 4,000 patients - as the drama is filmed at Elstree studios, in Hertfordshire.
The move came after 'Holby City' and 'Casualty' donated PPE (personal protective equipment) to the NHS.
