Fresh from its very heartwarming and much watched Christmas special last weekend, Call The Midwife returns to the BBC for a new series on Sunday night and with a new face in the form of Sister Veronica.
Millions tuned into the popular drama after their dinner on Christmas Day, to see the residents of Poplar take part in talent show Poplartunity Knocks, to raise money for those affected by the horrifying train crash that rocked the community and see adored character Trixie, played by Helen George, make her return, to then be proposed to in the closing moments of the 90 minute festive episode.
As credits rolled on the show's annual Christmas special, there was good news for Call The Midwife fans as, after loads of speculation on when the new series might start, it was officially confirmed by a BBC announcer, that it would be kicking off on Sunday, January 1 at 8pm.
