Season chronology

The sixth series of the British medical drama television series Holby City commenced airing in the United Kingdom on BBC One on 7 October 2003, and concluded on 12 October 2004.

Reception

The British Medical Association denounced a January 2004 episode of the series which portrayed organ donation being carried out despite withdrawal of consent by the patient's relatives. Dr. Michael Wilks, chairman of the Medical Ethics Committee stated: "This simply would not happen, but its portrayal, even in a drama, is totally irresponsible and risks causing huge damage to the already struggling transplant programme."[1]
