BBC Call the Midwife Christmas Special: What time it's on and full cast list
Another Christmas visit to Nonnatus House is on the horizon thanks to a festive special of Call the Midwife. After becoming a holiday staple in many households, the BBC period drama that follows a close group of midwives in London's East End will be split into two 60-minute episodes for the first time ever, complete with a Christmas cliffhanger.
As Poplar prepares for a carol concert and funfair amongst the frosty landscape, the special tells the tale of an escaped prisoner that causes fear to grow amongst the neighbourhood due to a recent spate of break-ins, as well as influenza and the Hong Kong flu arriving in town amid celebrations.
Alongside, of course, the usual warmth and festivities the show brings to viewers' screens. Read more TV stories from the Manchester Evening News here.

When I was asked to write a two-part Christmas special for 2024, I couldn't resist." Executive producer Dame Pippa Harris added: "For the first time, viewers can luxuriate in a two-part festive treat this Christmas.
