Holby City will air a heartstopping twist in Nicky McKendrick's ongoing story tonight (July 7).

Viewers have seen Nicky (Belinda Owusu) come under extreme pressure over the last few weeks, with mounting debts and the worrying health condition of a family friend both playing on her mind.

A huge episode for Nicky will kick off when she arrives at work to learn of Brenda's deterioration last week.

Having been solely focused on finding a cure for Brenda's condition, Nicky has been up all night – and is now surviving on coffee and energy drinks to get her through the day.

Stressed and exhausted, Nicky then makes a big mistake when she makes a promise to Brenda's son that she knows she can't keep. And when Brenda arrests again, a devastated Nicky is forced to watch her die.

To make matters worse, a distraught Nicky later finds herself under more pressure from her troubled mum Tracey – who needs bailing out of her latest crisis – while Jac has some harsh words for the junior doctor over her earlier actions.

When Jac reads Nicky the riot act over her earlier promise to Brenda's son, it all becomes too much for Nicky and she suffers a panic attack.

After Jac forces her to go home, Nicky feels helpless as her world crumbles around her – and it's not long before events are taking a devastating turn. What happens, and will Nicky be okay?

Holby City airs these scenes tonight (Tuesday, July 7) at 8pm on BBC One.
