The sixth series of the British medical soap opera Doctors originally aired between 6 September 2004 and 6 April 2005. It consisted of 139 episodes. Unlike all previous series, no new regular characters were introduced, but instead, four new recurring cast members featured alongside the established regulars. These were: Shabana Bakhsh, Sean Arnold, Steven Hartley and Mandana Jones, all of whom departed in the series.
From 2000 to 2004, Doctors was filmed at the BBC's former Pebble Mill studios in Edgbaston.[1] After the closure of Pebble Mill, BBC Birmingham moved to the BBC Drama Village development in Selly Oak. To explain the transition between locations on screen, this series featured a storyline in which the Riverside Health Centre is destroyed by an explosion, prompting the move to the Mill Health Centre.[2][3]
