Jamie Cleveland in killer crash

Jamie Cleveland (Ryan Hawley) has made Cam Mickelthwaite’s (Barney Walsh) life a living hell since he turned up in Holby City, and this week the evil abuser is found at the bottom of Haverly Gorge, trapped in his car and barely alive.

Paramedic Iain Dean (Michael Stevenson) and fireman Rich Walker (Michael Keogh) attend the difficult crash site and extract the dying man.

Meanwhile, at the ED Siobhan McKenzie receives an urgent call on the department’s red phone that Jamie is being brought in in critical condition.

Siobhan warns Cam ahead of time and stresses that she doesn’t think he should deal with Jamie. When he insists he wants to, however, she relents, even though Cam is clearly upset while Iain does his handover. Even so, the traumatised nurse steps in to assist consultant Dylan Keogh (William Beck).

Moment of truth

When Cam is momentarily left alone with gravely ill Jamie, the former hospital trustee tells him Bobby Morton (Ryan J Mackay) ran him off the road and left him for dead.

Dylan comes in and, after confirming what Jamie said, he notifies the police.

Upset, Cam leaves resus, but after a heart-to-heart with Siobhan she encourages him to go back in and get the answers he needs before it’s too late. He returns to Jamie’s bedside…

Now alone, Cam asks Jamie if he’s sorry for what he did to him and Bobby when they were young teenagers. Remorseless Jamie denies all so, in a moment of truth, Cam tells him he’s dying. Despite this, twisted Jamie continues to insist that he did nothing wrong and makes remorseless defence of himself, leaving Cam broken.

Shortly afterwards Jamie arrests.

Will he die?
