Call The Midwife<\/a> is poised to make a comeback with its 15th season in just a few days, following the BBC’s<\/a> firm denial of rumours that it had been cancelled.<\/p>\n The much-loved BBC<\/a> period drama first graced our screens in 2012 and has since delivered 14 seasons along with numerous festive specials.<\/p>\n Despite whispers suggesting the series was nearing its end, the BBC swiftly set the record straight, confirming not only the return of the show but also two additional seasons, a cinema-release film, and a prequel series set during World War II.<\/p>\n The broadcaster previously reassured: “The BBC would like to reassure fans that Call The Midwife<\/a> will remain at the heart of the BBC for years to come. As previously announced, there are two Christmas<\/a> specials, a new series, a film and prequel series, before a sixteenth series in due course. Call the Midwife isn’t going anywhere.”<\/p>\n Call The Midwife returns on Sunday 11 January at 8pm.<\/p>\n The opening episode of the eight-part series promises: “The Nonnatus team grow increasingly concerned for the welfare of four young children. Sister Catherine faces her first solo delivery, and the midwives attend a women’s<\/a> lib meeting.”<\/p>\n This comes after a two-part Call The Midwife special, airing tonight, Christmas Day at 8.15pm and Boxing<\/a> Day at 8.30pm.<\/p>\n The BBC previously teased: \u201cWhen senior members of the Nonnatus House staff head to Hong Kong on a mercy mission, the younger midwives are left to cope alone.<\/p>\n \u201cAs the Christmas action shifts between the sun-drenched Far East and a snowy East End, Sister Julienne suddenly finds herself excited about the Order\u2019s future.<\/p>\n \u201cAfter years of battling change, she decides to embrace it, work with it, and see what love can do.<\/p>\n \u201cThis change of energy reverberates throughout series 15. The new series kicks off in 1971 with several of the ladies embracing Women\u2019s Lib and burning their bras outside Nonnatus House.<\/p>\n \u201cAs the year unfolds, we see the team handle cases including premature birth, placenta previa, kidney cancer, tuberculosis and slavery.\u201d<\/p>\n The festive special of Call The Midwife airs tonight at 8.15pm on BBC One<\/a> and iPlayer<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Call the Midwife is set to return in just a few weeks.A two-part Christmas special starts tonight(Image: BBC)…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":251492,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[265],"tags":[8310,127563,18,117,19,17,128],"class_list":["post-251491","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-bbc1","tag-call-the-midwife","tag-eire","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-tv"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/115782811261755263","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/251491","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=251491"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/251491\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/251492"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=251491"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=251491"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=251491"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Call](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766705365_761_0_Call-The-Midwife.jpg\")
