Derek Thompson: Casualty's Charlie Fairhead leaves after 37 years
By Emma PetrieArts and culture reporter
Derek Thompson is to leave BBC drama Casualty after 37 years in The Role of Charlie Fairhead .
He is the medical drama's longest-serving cast member and the only remaining character from The First episode in 1986.
Thompson said: " The Time has come for me to hang up Charlie's scrubs after The Most wonderful 37 years. "
The Actor will be filming until the autumn, and his final scenes as Charlie will air next year.
The character of Fairhead was inspired by a real-life Nurse - Pete Salt.
In a statement, Thompson said: " Together with The Writers and producers, I have tried to bring to Charlie the compassion, kindness, heroism and sound judgement that we all see and love in Pete .
" I want to say thanks to Pete and Everyone Else over that time who has inspired me in bringing this character to life. "
Viewers have watched Fairhead experience plenty of drama over The Years with the patients in the Emergency Department , as well as a few struggles of his own.
He has been shot in the chest with a handgun by a schizophrenic man and Held Hostage by an Armed Man and run over by an ambulance on his Wedding Day .
The character has also had two stress-induced heart attacks and a pulmonary embolism, and was once seen being driven off a pier.
Viewers watched him say a heart-breaking farewell to his beloved fellow Nurse Duffy (Cathy Shipton ), following a will-they-won't-they relationship which spanned 30 years.
Jon Sen , executive producer of Casualty, said they used to joke that after Fairhead's long and dramatic career in the NHS there was not much that he hadn't seen.
" It was an amazing surprise to me when Derek arrived with a brilliant idea for Charlie's exit as part of an upcoming storyline, which was too good to pass up, " Sen said. " We will all miss Derek enormously. "
" Over nearly four decades, Derek has crafted an iconic character who is woven into the fabric of British TV history. We will miss his craft, his humour and his on-screen presence. We're also going to Miss A friend, so for The Next few months we're going to have a ball filming Charlie's final chapter. "
