Josh Hudson is a fictional character from the BBC medical drama Holby City, played by actor Trieve Blackwood-Cambridge. He first appears in the twenty-sixth episode of series twenty-two, originally broadcast on 10 November 2020. The character and Blackwood-Cambridge's casting details were announced on 29 October 2020. He began filming in July 2020 following a production break enforced by the COVID-19 pandemic and therefore had to film under strict safety protocol. Josh is characterised as a charming, confident, energetic, horny and cheeky foundation doctor (F1). He starts his rotation at Holby City Hospital alongside F1s Jeong-Soo Han (Chan Woo Lim) and Skylar Bryce (Phoebe Pryce); they often feature together in their early stories.
Most of Josh's stories revolve around his relationship with consultant Ange Godard (Dawn Steele), which is marred by the ethics of a junior doctor-mentor romance and the age difference between them. Light relief scenes were created through the secretive nature of the relationship. Blackwood-Cambridge and Steele filmed close contact scenes for the pair after isolating for a week before filming. The relationship was challenged through the introduction of Josh's mother, Elaine Hudson (Carol Walton), and Ange becoming pregnant with twins. Writers coincided the twins' premature birth with a bomb explosion at the hospital, leaving the lives of Josh, Ange and his new family unit in danger.
Producers used the character to explore the issue of bulimia nervosa over several months. Josh begins struggling after becoming a father and beginning a new rotation on the cardiothoracic unit. A friendship with clinical lead Eli Ebrahimi (Davood Ghadami) was established as Josh struggles to tell Ange. The story develops when he begins therapy, where he meets Claudia Blaise (Lottie Tolhurst). When Holby City was cancelled, writers had to conclude Josh's stories. Claudia was killed off, which inspires Josh to seek further help. Josh and Ange's relationship was also given a positive ending. The character and his stories were received well by television critics. Sam Thomas praised the character's bulimia plot in a feature for the Metro.
