He was the president of the Oxford Union. It’s such a fun place to work. Jason stories have focused on his connection with Serena and working as a hospital porter. Otherwise, it would have been another example of a non-disabled actor playing a disabled role, like Dustin Hoffman playing Rain Man.I really like the other actors and the people behind the scenes. Also, sometimes, when I don’t see someone for a while, I can get silly thoughts about them that aren’t true, so I like to keep myself occupied.Probably watching movies with great actors. I hope that I'm encouraging people with other conditions or people who are on the spectrum and have autism or mild learning difficulties.

For me, the best thing about it is having a really good memory and remembering specific dates. He doesn’t even notice that Ophelia is suicidal.

I’ve been able to show them that we are able and capable, as well as being fun and clever.Yes I believe so, we’ll be seeing how his marriage with Greta develops.That was also really fun. Behind the scenes Edit I think we’re both very matter of fact and straightforward. Greta required urgent surgery that only Serena could perform due to staff absences.

Mum says that I’m like Wikipedia with a pulse.I remember the formats of tennis matches and know all the tennis numbers and scores, from any game in the world. It’s really interesting playing a guy with the same condition, but with a different sort of Asperger’s to myself. My character was completely different from Jason. The audience sees Jason’s real emotions and can relate to his problems. I’m such a good actor that my mum now wonders: “Gosh, I’m not sure!

There are going to be tough and challenging times, but just be yourself and do your best.


So I had a pretend tennis match against an inflatable dolphin – marrying two of my obsessions. Jules himself has Asperger’s syndrome, a form of autism, a neuro-diverse disability that causes difficulties in social interactions and repetitive patterns of behaviour and interests. I sometimes feel socially awkward,  or don’t know what to say, so end up saying the wrong thing. Serena is successful and saves Greta's leg.Fictional character from BBC medical drama Holby City"Jason is about to have a baby with Greta, and if you bear in mind where his character began - needing full time care - to have him in that situation without any help, or so Serena thinks, is a bit untenable." He’s obsessive, anxious and emotionally stunted. He has been appearing regularly in Holby since February as Jason Haynes, nephew of consultant general surgeon Serena Campbell played by Catherine Russell. Jason and Serena were unacquainted and it takes time for her to accept Jason into her family. But I had no idea that it would lead to something so great as Holby City and that my life would become more exciting from there.There were some really fun things we did in the workshops. I don’t really like labels.

The series was created by Tony McHale and Mal Young as a spin-off from the established BBC medical drama Casualty, and premiered on 12 January 1999.

I’d like to play the first autistic Hamlet. I didn’t necessarily know that I had a condition because we didn’t talk about it very much until I was quite a bit older.But, when we finally did, it became challenging. It makes them feel sympathetic, but also amused and intrigued by the way his brain works.

Serena takes on the risky operation despite it being unethical. I even think that people working on Holby City have changed their mind about the abilities of people with autism. If they watch me on Holby City I hope I'm showing them that it can happen for them and they shouldn't lose faith and hope.Robertson described Jason as "really nice and sensitive with a deadpan sense of humour and a genuine desire to do good".Serena's daughter Elinor Campbell (Amy McCallum) visits the hospital but Serena is too busy to entertain Elinor. But, in many other ways, we’re not. I think he’s a bit more nerdy and geeky than I am.I also wouldn’t be able to hold down the responsibilities that he has; the baby, the wife and the difficult porter’s job. However, during most of my time at school, I still just tried to make myself invisible.Well, I didn’t really notice it. I wouldn’t be able to handle any of that myself. See full bio ». It’s a very exciting being able to play a character that isn’t you.I did a year-long course there in 2015 and, at the time, I thought it was really hard.
