In the finale of a topical domestic abuse storyline between Tina and Jacob – actress Adele James left CASUALTY this week.
Her character was arrested following a manic episode in which she kidnapped a patient, threatened to harm herself, pretend she was pregnant and attacked paramedic Iain Dean.
Adele, who first appeared in the show back in July 2020, said of her exit ‘Thank you all for the support you’ve shown Charles Venn and I whilst we journeyed through this very difficult storyline. If you have been affected by Tina and Jacob’s story, please do seek out the relevant help and support safely. I don’t have all the words right now, but I will soon. Until then, take the best care.’
A goodbye message from Adele James.
