Call The Midwife star Stephen McGann said the creation of the NHS 75 years ago has transformed the chances of children from working class families reaching adulthood.
McGann, who plays Poplar GP Dr Patrick Turner, said the NHS has made “all the difference in the world” to communities like the one his character cares for in the BBC period drama series about a group of midwives working in the East End of London in the late 1950s and 1960s.
