Suzanne Packer's friend has tweeted her that she has left the show.

I have no idea if it's 100% true but I'm really going to miss Tess if she's leaving. She has been on the show for 12 years.

If true, i'm surprised as i thought Tess would be there forever like Charlie, hope they kill Tess of though as she is close to catching up Paul Robinson and Phil Mitchell with the amount of times she has cheated death in the past.

Oh that's a shame. I only dip in and out of Casualty at the moment, but when I watch it's always nice to see familiar faces. I think this is true as Louis and Suzanne worked together on Brookside.

Now we know why Tess stepped down as head nurse (or whatever her title was), and Rita took over her job

I have always been indifferent about Tess but I have liked her recently. She will be a loss but the show will go on without her. Hope Duffy comes back

Yeah I didn't say it's an official confirmation - but it looks likely. There wasn't an official announcement when Ash left the show though.

There was barely an on-screen announcement for that one!

This is a shame.

We've hardly seen Tess in the last year so I'm not too surprised.

The character hasn't had a decent story for ages, so cannot blame the actress for leaving.

Clicked on thread hoping it was Connie Beecham. Sadly not. Won't watch again until she is gone.

Yes, since she handed the reins over to Rita, she's taken a bit of a back seat. That said, I like the character. I hope she gets a good send-off, unlike poor Ash, whose farewell basically consisted of a brief exchange about him between two characters!

Connie is not that bad. She has a heart deep down and Amanda Mealing is brilliant

I really hope Tess will get a good off. I would hate for her to have a low key exit. Not surprised if Suzanne Packer quit Casualty because she has been poorly used for a while.

I do not think Connie fits in Casualty at all in my opinion. I cannot see the character leaving too soon though. The character was good on Holby City, but terrible on Casualty in my opinion.

I'd rather she goes back to Holby City but I think she's great in Casualty now - it's Amanda Mealing's terrific performances that makes me invest in Connie a lot

Not really a fan of Tess in Casualty but I do like her friendship with Zoe.

I wonder if Tess will die in the new series, as they have done just a night shoot where if the rumours are true it was Zoe and Max wedding and we all know Casualty doesn't have a 'quiet' wedding something always happen...

I agree that Amanda Mealing is brilliant but I detest Connie at the moment.

Oh I agree she was good in Holby City but it beyond ridiculous that a world renounced heart surgeon would be running an A & E Department. Her temperament is all wrong and it jars so much I can't watch anymore. In fact I think the Casualty cast as a whole is weak. It'll get better at some point.

She's a marmite character. People either love her or dislike her. If Connie is a real life person, I would avoid her.
