Sexy, sassy and self-assured, Chrissie runs her ward with an iron fist and her staff live in fear of incurring her wrath. She doesn't suffer fools gladly and she ALWAYS gets what she wants.
Clinical matron Chrissie Williams is arguably Holby's resident maneater with many of the hospital's male staffers falling under her spell at one time or another.
It looked like she'd really found true love when she hooked up with Owen Davis - but that didn't stop her kissing Ed on the day of their wedding. Needless to say, the marriage ended soon after but Chrissie continued to hold a torch for Owen and was devastated when she learned that he'd been cheating on her with her mum!
As well as her colourful love life, Chrissie's had to deal with her fair share of trauma, not least suffering a miscarriage and tracking down dad Mark only to later discover that he is in fact her brother.
Chrissie's currently involved in an on-off relationship with registrar Sam Strachan - but he comes with baggage of his own...
Tina Hobley first came to the public's attention as Samantha Failsworth in Coronation Street. After two years on the cobbles, she joined fellow soap star Nick Berry in Harbour Lights before being picked to play feisty clinical matron Chrissie in Holby City.
Trivia Tina's ideal dinner guest would be actor Robert De Niro.
