Call The Midwife fans have been left both delighted and relieved by the announcement that the hit BC drama has been confirmed for two more series, with the news coming amid anger that the current series finale has been delayed.
Call The Midwife has now been a staple of Sunday night TV for over a decade, with millions of viewers thoroughly invested in the goings on in Poplar, chiefly the nuns of Nonnatus House. As well as giving fans plenty of heart-warming moments over the years, most recently Matthew's proposal to popular character Trixie, there has also been some major drama, with the fatal train crash of last series leaving two main protagonists' lives hanging in the balance.
Just like its predecessors, series 12 of Call The Midwife has been a big ratings hit for the BBC, with it dealing with a host of hard-hitting issues like racism and teenage pregnancy, as well as the build up to Trixie and Matthew's wedding. And one of the episodes that really concerned viewers, saw Nonnatus House dealt the massive blow of potential closure by the Health Board, who declared they could close it down whenever they see fit.
