Holby City viewers were left absolutely stunned last night as favourite character Xavier was dramatically killed off.
For weeks, Xavier has been suspicious about junior doctor Cameron Dunn and was convinced he had something to do with Evan Crowhurst’s death.
Zav and Cameron’s feud has caused a breakdown in Zav and Donna’s relationship and also led to him being suspended from work.
In last night’s episode of Holby (Tuesday, April 14), Zav returned to the hospital for his hearing. But he made one last attempt to get evidence against Cameron.
Zav uncovered CCTV footage showing Cameron had been in Evan’s room when his heart began to stop.
Further evidence proved there was a gap between Evan’s heart stopping and attempts to resuscitate him, meaning Cameron must have waited to call for help.
Zav confronted his nemesis in the hospital’s basement and told him as a result of what he’d found he was going to the police.
But as Xavier went to take the evidence to the police, he was involved in a tragic accident.
How did Xavier die in Holby City?
As he left the hospital, Zav made a call to Donna saying he was going to fix everything. But as he stepped into the road, he walked into a cyclist and fell backwards hitting his head on a curb.
Cameron, who had been following his colleague, witnessed the accident. But instead of helping, Cameron took Zav’s bag with the evidence and ran off.
The doctor was taken to hospital and given a scan, meanwhile Cameron took the evidence and pretended he had no idea what had happened.
