paul bradley plays elliot hope, who first appears in the episode "more equal than others" - series eight, episode four of the programme. elliot is introduced as a consultant surgeon and clinical lead on holby general's cardiothoracic surgery ward. his storylines see his wife gina, a motor neurone disease-sufferer, commit assisted suicide, and his relationship with his children subsequently deteriorate. elliot considers suicide himself, before reconciling with his family. he ends a brief romance with colleague lady byrne as he is still mourning gina, and later shares a kiss with his old friend tara sodi. bradley was cast in the role after originally auditioning for a more minor part, and impressing executive producer richard stokes. he observed real heart surgery being performed in preparation for the role, and bases his portrayal of elliot on his own father, who was a doctor. elliot is portrayed as "a disorganised genius", and "a medical columbo". he was the focus of "holby city" 2007 christmas episode, based on the 1964 film "it's a wonderful life". the assisted suicide storyline proved controversial, though the elliot-centric christmas episode was generally well received by critics. "the times" david chater called it "highly effective in what it sets out to do", though robert hanks of "the independent" deemed it "incompetent to the point of sacrilege".
