Call The Midwife's Helen George 'clarifies' show's future after raising 'exit' fears

Helen George has offered some clarification on Call The Midwife's future, having admitting she is scared of being 'written out' of the hit BBC drama.

Helen has been right at the heart of the action in the long-running show for years now, with her return after maternity leave for last year's Christmas episode, seeing her much loved character Trixie Franklin proposed to be beau Matthew. After the series 12 finale was pushed back a week by the BBC, in order to show this year's BAFTA Film Awards, the couple's wedding gave the hour long episode its focal point, with Sister Monica Joan returning to lead the nuptials, much to the delight of fans.

While there is plenty of uncertainty surrounding Vera, the ITV drama that went up against Call The Midwife in the ratings every Sunday night, we know that Call The Midwife will be back and, during an appearance on Morning Live, Helen revealed just how many series are currently in the pipeline.
