Sunday night favourite, Call the Midwife, has become that rare thing in today’s crowded TV landscape: a true phenomenon. A hit from the opening episode, it has now run for 11 series and remains beloved by millions of fans who are drawn to its authentic and heart-warming evocation of east London life in the late 50s and 60s.
Here, creator and writer Heidi Thomas, executive producer Pippa Harris, and key cast members Helen George (Trixie Franklin), Laura Main (Shelagh Turner) and Stephen McGann (Dr Turner) reveal the secrets of its success and celebrate a decade’s worth of compassionate and often powerful stories about birth, medicine, love and loss.
